In recent decades squid boats are equipped with bright artificial lights attached to a cross-beam that extends on both sides of the boat. One single boat can carry several hundred thousand watts of incandescent light [...] The lights of these modernized squid fleets can be so bright that they are visible in satellite images of the ocean taken from 500 miles above the earth.

I don’t know, while watching the video again, and especially at around the 03:15 mark, I get the feeling that the lights are above the horizon, but it’s difficult to tell for sure.

Descending through about 10,000ft is more like it – so the lights wouldn’t have to huge at all.
