The object at first appeared like a satellite however it slowed and became very bright then the object faded a bounced toward space.

The craft was moving from the east to north at a moderate speed and had appeared to fly with an altitude equivalent to that of military craft or a low orbit satellite. The object soon after began to slow, practically to a complete stop, at which time the object became much brighter while still maintaining its altitude. The craft's light then faded and the object appeared to rapidly ascend at a sharp angle into space or the upper atmosphere. It should also be noted that both military and commercial aircraft are common in the vicinity in which this craft was spotted.
