Very high altitude, small light, appeared to be a star. moved from west to east, when overhead turned 90 degrees to the north.
I was observing the stars when I noticed a small light about the size of a pin head traveling from west to east. When it was directly overhead it made a 90 degree turn to the north towards Seattle. I first thought that it was a satellite as it was moving so fast and at such a high altitude but when it turned like that, I'm convinced it was no satellite.
