Weird glowing light in copenhagen nov 16, 7:10 pm

[luka]

I live on bag søndermarken 23, 4th floor with windows looking north and west Copenhagen, Denmark

I spend a lot of time just staring at stars, looking at flight radar etc.

On this clear night i observed a bright light looking 3x brighter and 3x size of what jupiter looked like yestarday, which was huge and bright.

It was 100% stationary, and it then faded into nothing in 1-2 seconds.

What was it?

fyi
I usually look north and enjoy watching the planes and usually check flight radar, nothing matching what i was seeing.

Might be a satellite, like COSMOS 1833, which was just entering Earth's shadow around then

At the top of the globe here

Not stationary, but not moving fast, which can look simiar if there's no bright nearby stars.
