Here are the top 3 stories today in Bedford:

1. Did you spot a strange thin line of bright lights in the sky Monday night? Many Bedford and Manchester residents caught a glimpse of SpaceX Starlink satellites in the night sky just after 8 p.m. "The satellites are bright and can be seen moving in tandem," reported WMUR. The strange lights in the night sky from SpaceX satellites appeared only two days after Granite Staters could see a SpaceX rocket launch in the sky Saturday night that looked like a comet. "Track when the satellites are most visible at findstarlink.com. Here's a link for the upcoming viewings for Manchester." (WMUR)
2. Find out what all the excitement is about for the Girls Expo 2022. Girls ages 5 to 18 and their families are invited to the Girls Expo on Oct. 16 at the NH Sportsplex in Bedford.
