Strange images last night.

I started taking a sequence of images of the Rosetta , last night, for a mosaic and most of the images, different panels and different exposures, have what look like satellite streaks through them. Far too many over a long time for them to be actual satellites. I imagine a meteors shower wouldn't be in that vicinity for such a long time either. FOV is 33 x 25 arc min hence the need for a mosaic of this large nebula!
The following are just a sample taken from 10:30 to 11:45 last night, SA time. Single shots, no calibration and greatly reduced for here.

Sorry, I don't know how to send smaller images, they are too large and very poor!
