Help Identifying Mystery Object In Photos

Hi Guys,
I was out testing/comparing lenses late thursday night/early friday morning as the skies were clear and Jupiter was conveniently placed.
I was using a Sigma 400mm F5.6 Mirror Telephoto FD Mount, a Sun Optic 85-210 F4.5 Zoom M42 Mount, Canon 50mm F1.8 FD Mount and 18-55mm Canon EFS Standard Lens with my Canon EOS 1000D.
The FD lenses use a corrective lens in the mount adapter to achieve infinity focus, the M42 focusses to infinity without corrective optics in the adapter.
Every image contains a mystery (to me) object thats moves as time passes. The attached images are cropped from the full size originals and were taked at 2.05am, 2.08am and 2.11am Friday 26th June 2009 from Moe Victoria.
At first I thought it may be a comet, but there are 3 distinct trails.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Darren LRSM
