Description: When I looked at the integrated image (indeed not great ... I am very new to astrophotography) , I noticed a "white" trace. I was curious to find out what this is. Comparing the different successive frames and with the help of Aladin/SIMBAD and NEOChecker, I could identify the nature of this trace. Seems highly likely that it is (11440) Massironi. Comments and suggestions welcome.
