High altitude UFO over Fairbanks Alaska seen by 3 witnesses

A friend and I were out taking pictures of the Aurora when I noticed an unusual light above us. It was at least twice as bright as the nearest stars and I noticed it was moving. I quickly grabbed my tripod and camera and moved it so the object was in the field of view. As I was doing this the object appeared to increase speed and the light emitted or reflected from the object dimmed to red and faded out as it sped away. My camera was set up for a 10 second exposure on a 1 second delay and the image shows a streak of light from the object. Object was at very high altitude and not an aircraft that I’m familiar with.

All of us present agreed it was like nothing we have ever seen.

Object was travelling West Northwest.

Object seemed to maneuver showing a less reflective surface as it sped away could possibly explain the light from the UFO and how it changed.

Object did not display normal meteor characteristics, No aircraft or satellites were in the area either from searching online services.

I can provide the photo which is unmodified.
