Starlink
I was outside with Radar (my pup) about an hour ago, and by serendipity saw an awesome display of Starlink satellites trailing one after the other nearly straight overhead. That was dang cool.

I just read the last launch of them was March 18. They said seeing them in a string like that is more prevalent just after they have been launched.
So maybe what you saw was the latest batch maybe? I do not know that much about them, but by the video I saw of a string of them (I guess similar to what you saw) was pretty cool looking. Not sure what I would have thought had I seen that! Earl

There have been six launches of 60, plus a couple of prototypes. I'm not sure which group I saw, but I think it was the February launch as they were spread pretty wide, probably a little more than the apparent distance between Beetlejuice and Rigel (Orion). I'd have to actually go back outside and look at Orion again to say that with confidence.
