Characteristics: Left a trail

Bright pinpoint light moved laterally from N to E.

I was watching the meteor shower. Looking N af Cassiopeia. 20 degrees east of Cassiopeia, I saw a slowly moving bright light. Approx. 5x brighter than the brightest star, about twice the size of a star. .

The amplitude of light slowly increased as it moved towards the east. Amplitude decreased and if moved North again. This repeated two times.

Much too slow for a meteor. Left a trail.
