Bright lights lit up the skies in Western Washington on Tuesday night.
The sightings was from the latest Space Starlink Satellites that were just deployed earlier in the day.
This marks the 10th Starlink mission of the year.

And they have a local connection — they’re manufactured in Redmond.
KIRO 7′s newsroom received several reports about the sighting.
Those #Starlink satellites come off the satellite like this -- 60 of them from today's launch are a little more than 200 miles up. More launches like this coming later in the month. More now on @KIRO7Seattle at 11.
