The only orbital object that matches the direction of travel that evening is a
Lacrosse 3. It
was travelling NNW to SE between 6:28 and 6:37.
The size and brightness don't seem to match the satellite's magnitude of 2.6, though. It also appears to move along the horizon more than the
satellite's track. So I'd rule out a satellite.
Edit : The
ISS was
travelling in a southerly direction low to the horizon betwenn 6:30 and 6:34 at a magnitude of -0.4. That's a much better fit.
