Slow moving star light

Every since I reported an incident several years ago I have always kept my eyes open upon going fishing at a specific location.

It happened again. I was fishing at Glen Island with friends. I walked to go get my pole. I noticed an unusual clear visibility of the stars.

I was looking South East, past Long Island and straight up towards the Sagittarius constellation when I noticed a dim star, start to slowly move. There were no noise or blinking lights. The dim moving star was as close to the other stars and I knew it was too far away to be a plane or satellite. I yelled to the other fishermen and pointed up and asked them if they saw what I was seeing. They saw it after I pointed toward the direction. The dim moving star-light passed between two stars and kept moving in a straight line for about 10 seconds and then vanished. I’m an astronomer and have scene satellites and rocket launches. This was no satellite. I was amazed and shocked that I witness the same similar thing that I had saw and reported several years ago on this forum.
