Okay. Here is an animation of 10 frames captured from 9:40pm to 10:19pm. Each frame is a 120 sec exposure with a 2min 20sec delay between captures to allow for In Camera Noise Reduction and download time.

The region has been cropped severely and levels stretched to reveal the “spiky” nature of this mystery object. Looking more like an optical system artefact based on its wandering and the radial spikes?

Cheers
