Starlink satellites?
It sounds like a batch of Starlink satellites deploying from the most recent launch.
Starlink. Saw recent scenario here in western Colorado. Was actually quite impressed
Could be starlink satellites.
The most recent Starlink satellite launch had 22 satellites, probably with a bus to deploy them adding another object. Add in a possible thruster and the contrail is explained as well.
aliens. it’s always aliens.
This sight might help since you recorded the time. I heard of this sight from a friend. I never personally used it but you should be able to find out what it was

I suspect that’s a really nice area, based on my travels.
Enjoy!
That is very odd.
I also live in Wisconsin, but further east.
Perhaps 1/2 hour before the time you saw those lights, I saw a series of lights going overhead, roughly West to East, in a row, from an upper window at home.
By the time my wife came over to look, they were gone.
Probably airliners flying at their cruising altitude.

That was a long time ago, though,
back when Freepers liked George Bush
Kenny Bunk was alive and well,
And Laz decided not to hit it that one time.

You saw the Starlink train - one of the wonders of the Elon Musk World!
Dang, I didn’t know another batch was in view. Here’s how to find them:
A recently launched (yesterday) StarLink satellite “cluster:” is over the Midwest states right now:

The newly launched satellites play “follow the leader” in a line until they re-deploy to their semi-permanent orbital positions.
(So “Musk”) ;-)
