Was out taking pix of the aurora 2 nights ago. Got a small streak in the NE sky that must be a meteor. Also got a long streak in the West. It covered about 10 degrees in 30 sec. What could that be?

could be a satellite of some sort catching the sun. They can be pretty fast.

Iridium satalites can give bright flare marks on photos
