I was looking mostly straight over-head when I see this object...looked like an illuminated arrow...sort of an illuminate light bar. It was as wide as, say, the width of a star, and about as long as the distance between two of the stars of the Orion's belt. It took about 1 1/2 minutes to travel from right over head to about ten degrees above the horizon. It stayed fully illuminated the entire time...not the sun's reflection off the object...only lost track of it as it got too far away to see. Definitely a first.

That fugging Starlink!
Yep, I saw it for the first time on Labor Day weekend while my Dad and I were casting for salmon in Petoskey at about 5:30AM.
