Hi!
Was stargazing last night in the UK, had my phone set up as well capturing a long exposure.
I have noticed there is something, possible an asteroid or comet on the long exposure video.
Would anyone be able to help with identifying it or confirming what it actually is.
Video was captured at 21.25 local time.
Apologies for the video quality it's quite zoomed in, but I hope it's fairly obvious where in the sky it was located.

Help identifying object from video captured.

Not sure where the ground will be in this (to the left?) and if this video is realtime or sped up
Depending on the the answer, it just looks like the streak in middle of screen could be a meteor, or a plane or a starlink satellite.
The other artifact at the top at the beginning looks like just a glitch or something in the foreground bright flashed for a moment
Nothing unusual, but still cool

Fine if you use a VPN, but not everyone here does.
Satellite. Probably starlink. The sky is polluted these days.
