Could this movement be attributable to parallax?

I was outside of Walla Walla a couple hours ago looking at the Northern lights and I noticed a few satellites flying around, and then spotted one that seemed a little larger and moving faster. I still assumed satellite, but then it appeared to veer from its arc and turn to the left a bit and then… it stopped. 🤔 Might that have been a parallax effect, where it was still moving but appeared to stop based on my angle of viewing? Regardless, it was fun to watch.
