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."
"It's aliens!" one man said as he held his cellphone up to the night sky. "It's either aliens or Elon Musk. Where did it go?" he's heard saying in the video as the lights faded.
He guessed correctly -- Look to Elon Musk for the answer to this mystery.

My name is Blake Thole. I live in 5T Ranch neighborhood in Argyle Texas. Was outside with some neighbors talking and we all looked up and saw this amazingly long line in the sky of what looked like LED lights almost. It was slowly moving across the sky. Was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen in the sky in my life. Later to find out it was Elon Musk’s Starlink. Very cool had to shareSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

The lights look too big to be an air-craft. It was going and it suddenly disappeared.

Just saw this go over our house in Dish, TX. It is going towards DFW. I have no idea what it is. I attached 2 pictures. The blue one I was too close to the yard light.Ken Weber
