[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 835649, member: 48483"] Aircraft have strobing lights so they give the streaks with "balls". Solid steaks that don't vary in intensity normally are satellites. Starlink being the biggest offender. Meteors are much faster and brief, usually a fade-in and/or fade-out. Not such a solid intensity on the line. I only see 1 inconclusive candidate for a meteor crossing above an aircraft. But it looks a bit more like a satellite crossing the terminator line of the Earth's shadow. [/QUOTE]
