Slight fragmentation (glittering) in beginning. I first thought it was a plane but it got brighter so I thought plane is setting alight but realised seeing it consistently so bright and solid as it moved across it wasn’t a plane after all! It eventually moved behind the trees and rooftops so disappeared from my sight.
