I am at anchor off Jupiter Island....around 8:30 pm....dark.

Above is the initial approach pattern for SB to PBI. Aircraft lined up coming both from north and east. 

My wife points out what appears to be a short cylindrical cloud ......contrail?...but it's unusual so we got out the binoculars.

What we saw was a string of lights...moving relatively quickly in a SE direction. After about 30 secs., one at or near the "front" broke off and appeared to double back and then.....the lights disappeared. Period. Nothing remained.

They were much higher than the aircraft on approach.

No....alcohol NOT involved.

A number of reports in.....Texas! Floridians are innured. Same observations as I reported.

Apparently it was Starlink satellites deployed. There  was a launch Wednesday, I think so blame the excitement on Elon.
