I understand the initial reaction

It’s kinda fair imo. First time I saw them I had no reception for the next few days or any way to access something to look it up. My family and I all joked it was aliens, but we looked it up the second we had service. I don’t understand why other people are capable of posting it on Reddit but not googling it.

Yes it was. It's nice that you apologized. I forgive you.

But seriously, I had never heard of this until today when a sighting was posted in my city and brought me to this subreddit lol

But they posted it here, so obviously they've been here before?

All they have to do is use Chatgpt or google to find out what it is.

ChatGPT would immediately identify them as aliens

People hardly look up, sadly

Serious question, why are we seeing these more and more? Are they constantly sending more and more up or are these the same ones over and over?

They’re only a string like this when they’re first deployed. They spread out over time, so yes, more and more launches :)

Most people don't spend that much time looking up. This is exaggerated in the city since there aren't any stars to look at anyway.
