Looks like UFO, but I'd like to believe its the product of the collision of two asteroids. It's amazing to know how beautiful the movements up there in the sky! Awesome!
I notice the background shows no stars. That's a bit odd if the head of the debris is ~140 meters (presumably less now?)
Also there looks to be some debris ahead and down from the main body and debris (one post says pushed back by sunlight pressure and the other by solar wind??) – if the "tail" is pointing away then that debris is coming into the inner solar system – a new meteoroid stream to track?
