Odd looking orbs in Oklahoma

[annemarie_ok]

Hey all, just wanted to share a video I captured a few months back of some orbs/lights in the sky that I wasn't able to identify, I've seen them quite a few times now. I was wondering if I could get your insights.

This was filmed on March 29, 2026 at 10:40:51 PM CST (iPhone metadata video start time) in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma facing northwest. Let me know! Thanks in advance.

Facing northwest from Broken Arrow, you're facing toward Tulsa international airport. Planes are the most likely source of the lights.

Those looks like starlink race track flares. At dusk, your particularly likely to catch them. However, I can't remember if you see them to the east or west when the sun sets.

The time stamp you gave puts you just past astronomical twilight which I believe is about right to see these.

I'm not sure, but I was pretty impressed that you gave us so much key info, in your very first post! Hope we can solve it for you...

Tulsa only has about 100 flights per day. I'm not sure thier throughput is high enough to sustain that level of activity.

Look up some vids of Starlink flares, this sure looks like that... one caution, a lot of vids of these satellites flaring that get posted online are sped up considerably.

(Don't feel bad if you decide this is what you saw, for not recognizing them at once. It took a lot of folks smarter than I am some timeto figure out the first ones when they started getting reported...)

Not quite sure how to sync this with the video (yet) but it appears looking NW at that date/time from Broken Arrow is looking directly at a group of satellites flaring. (needs some refinement obvs).
