Yeah, it's pretty cold to be stargazing here. But cool find for you. Where was it launched from? It's interesting to me because I think they would only have to fire boosters for a few minutes to get into low earth orbit. After that, they don't need them. So you were either close to the launch site, or it was traveling in the right direction for you to come across it , and it was way up there directly in your line of sight. Where was it launched from?
