<p>2 nights ago as i was away at my cottage I observed a odd object through my little beginner 3" reflector telescope. I was just wondering if someone might be able to say what it was i may have seen. what i was viewing was moving really fast i mean really really fast. no slow motion tracking for what ever it was. I was using my 12.5mm lens with no doubler. the object was about the same magnitude of most of the stars in my field of view but at such a small aperature and magnification it was hard to make out details but looked like there was no tail tracked it from a southeast to northeast direction nearly straight up for about 10 mins maybe less before i decided to see if i could see it naked eye and lost it. by that time it had nearly crossed 4 fist widths of the sky (40 degrees i think) even if i never know what it was, wow it was fun following it lol. oh yeah if this helps i am located in nova scotia canada and it was about 10 pm give or take an hour. any and all suggestions are welcome ty.</p>
