Blue light zoomed across the desert sky

A faint blue light zoomed across the entire desert sky, passing through Orion. It seemed too close to be satellite, too fast to be an aircraft (the transit took all of 15 sec across the sky), and there were no blinking lights. One witness described it changing course up and down rapidly, but I did not see that. It was not a spotlight as it flew a consistent speed and crossed the whole sky unobstructed.
