light (as bright as a satellite) but changed direction and picked up speed...
I was stargazing outside with my telescope, it is a really nice night out here. Then my girlfriend who just got out of the pool told me that there is a satellite above, i look don't see a thing. Couple of seconds later i was searching to find it and she says that it as changed direction and picked up speed. I then spotted the objet, was a little light (about -1 in magnitude) going full south but arrived from north-west. I've never seen anything like this and i'm used to spot satellites. I've seen MANY satellites in my 20 years experience of amateur astronomy.
