    From the Help Board:

    Satellites sometimes pass overhead as the telescope is observing and
    reflect light in a streak across the image as they pass by. They move
    quickly so their trails are always a single color: red, green, or
    blue. Sometimes you can classify the central galaxy, other times there
    is no central galaxy because the computer got a bit confused.
