Glad you had a good first light with your new gear!
I am jealous, between work, clouds and company visiting tomorrow (still cleaning), I've not had a good night under the stars with telescopes for a long while.
I suspect the bright "satelite" you saw was actually the ISS (International Space Station)...it was due for a pass tonight and by other accounts it was quite bright and very visible. Iceman (Mike) posted some raw data that he captured during the pass.
Keep Looking Up!
