While scanning the geo sat belt with a online telescope, I had a faint unid
in the view for a short time.

Was using the Itelescope in Australia at the time.
 Location of scope is

31.2785 S
149.0579 E

The unid passed above the following star around 10:25 utc ( Jan 20, 2022 )

4UC471-005299 ( UCAC-4 catalog )

RA:  3h37m49.9260s
declination: + 4 08' 43.974"
BEIDOU 3G1 ( 43683 ) and  ATLAS 5 CENTAUR (  49819 )  where below the unid
at the tine,

The trail for the unid is shorter then for the nearby geo sat's, which
tells me that unid is in a higher orbit.

Don't to see, anything to be the cause.
