What's this on Google Earth?
Punch in the following co ordinates and see what comes up.

You mean https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-28....!3m1!1e3?hl=en, looks like an aircraft in flight while the satellite was taking a picy.
I imagine the white "shadow" underneath is an in-focus version of the bright spot you often get down-sun when you look for your own shadow. I've always wondered what the mechanism is, for that bright spot:

From GE forum
... result of a double exposure. The satellite that takes many of Google Earth Satellite based (high resolution) images is QuickBird it employs linear array CCDs. One set takes panchromatic images (grey scale) and the second set takes multi spectral images (MSI). The MSI imager is mounted in different physical location on the satellite so its images are acquired later in time. These images are time re-aligned on the ground on the assumption that there are no moving objects in the field of view. As a consequence any moving object will have a colored image that appears ahead of the moving object and at lower resolutions. These images are double exposures. |
