Last Tuesday I counted 14 satellites in 20 minutes from my deck

I was out watching for the ISS pass around 9pm and ended up staying out way longer than I planned. Every time I looked up there was another one drifting across the sky, some bright steady ones and a few that blinked. My neighbor came out to see what I was staring at and I made him stand there counting with me for a solid minute. Has anyone else had a night where the satellites just kept coming like that?

Used to think satellites were rare. That night proved me dead wrong.

WAIT what do you mean "that NIGHT"? Are you saying you saw a ton of satellites pass by at night like all at once? Because I've heard of that happening with Starlink trains but I always thought that was just a few of them. How many did you see? I'm picturing you looking up and the sky is just COVERED in moving lights like a marching band or something. That sounds INSANE honestly.
