This Federal Aviation Administration record, released in 2023, logs an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported on 7 February 2023 by commercial flight NCR884, a Boeing 747 flying from Miami to Amsterdam. The crew reported three bright flashing objects moving southeast at roughly 40,000 to 50,000 feet while the aircraft was northeast bound at 33,000 feet. The FAA correlated the sighting with a Starlink satellite train of three to four groups of four units and closed the report.
