Details:
I was taking 4 minutes long exposure of the ISS flyby. After developing the file, I noticed all stars/planets having long trails (about 107 pixels long) except for one object. It is only 3 pixels long, and going in wrong direction.
For reference:
Jupiter - 3830x1940 going 91 degrees.
Spica - 5850x1660 going 97 degrees.
the Object - 7902x1950 going 63 degrees.
Picture was taken at 00:28 (4 minutes exposure)
I was thinking it maybe geostationary satellite, but I did not see any others. A comet/asteroid/meteor maybe, but I would have expected a longer trail. According to my calculations (size of the object's trail vs. Jupiter's trail), the flash was about 7 seconds long. Any idea what it may be?
