from the screenshot its really hard to what it is, but we've seen google earth space anomalies before which have all be satisfactorily explained as chromatic aberrations, internal reflections or artefacts to do with the telescope or other imaging device creating the image... chances are thats what yours is...

we had one a little while ago that looked for all the world like an old school space station - a wheel, with a centre core and spokes, which turned out to be a picture of the edge of the mirror and the support struts of whatever took the image, we managed to find a photo showing the structure of the device that too the photo and it was a match!
