webfact Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Mystery of Prachuap’s close encounter with UFO solved Photo credit: King Mongkut Memorial Park of Science and Technology Locals in Prachuap Khiri Khan’s Muang district were amazed to see a mysterious object streaking slowly across the night sky on Wednesday. Brighter than the stars around it, the object was spotted just above the horizon heading northeast. The mystery was solved a few hours later when the nearby King Mongkut Memorial Park of Science and Technology announced via Facebook that the International Space Station had just passed over the country.

DDIM Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 It’s not the space station. It is likely to be SpaceX starlink satellites which are owned by Elon Musk. They are used to provide wifi to remote communities. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamiecartereurope/2020/04/23/is-spacex-fixing-bright-starlink-satellites-elon-musk-says-yes-as-europe-sees-string-of-pearls/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
