In September this year, a similar incident took place in Lucknow wherein people reported of seeing these dotted lines pass by their night sky. Some found it a celestial event while others termed it 'strange' to decipher. Sources had then told IANS that it was a Starlink-51 satellite train.
Elon Musk-owned SpaceX had sent a space tug aloft along with another big batch of its Starlink internet satellites on September 4.
The recent video records people narrating the scene in the Marathi language, thus hinting to have originated from around Mumbai, Maharashtra. However, it isn't clear about what is lighting up the sky as shown in the now-viral footage.
