A clean, straight trail spanning 44 degrees across the sky, captured in a single 60-second exposure low in the west. It is almost certainly a satellite because the crossing happens at the right time of night when satellites in orbit catch the rising sun while the sky remains dark, and the 44-degree length shows rapid crossing. However, because it appears in only one single exposure rather than stepping across consecutive frames, it is not possible to completely rule out a much faster but unusually long meteor.
