A mysterious string of white lights appears to have caught the eyes of many North Texans Wednesday night.
NBC 5 received numerous emails and pictures showing what appeared to be a long line of lights tracking across the sky around 9 p.m.
From Waxahachie to Argyle and Grapevine to Burleson -- NBC 5 viewers were left perplexed and bemused.
"We were standing outside and looked up in the sky and saw a big light worm in the sky that was perfectly straight," one viewer wrote in a photo submission to iSee@nbcdfw.com. "It appeared and shot across the sky for two minutes and disappeared."

He guessed correctly -- Look to Elon Musk for the answer to this mystery.
