Details:
I tried to photograph the comet C/2014 Q3. You can see: The comet is very faint in the rectangular shape. But near the comet a satellite or a meteor passed. It has multiple flares (in the RAW-data up to 4 flashes with irregular distances between them. After a little research. I found that there were no satellite with the given brightness near the comet at the moment when I made the picture. Please help me solving this mystery, what could it be?
