Cylinder shape made out of "line" lights in Tucson

I looked up towards the Catalina Mountains in the Northeast at around 11:10 am. I see a bright cylinder in the sky, between clouds. I stare at it for a few seconds, then go find my camera. I come back and only find a giant cloud. I wait a while, then I give up. I look up again about ten minutes later, and it’s back in the blue sky. I immediately start taking pictures. Not long after, it starts floating down towards another cloud. It stays moving between the clouds, sometimes “bobbing”. A plane flies above it. I lose sight of it again, and put down my camera. As I’m on the phone, I see it again in the blue sky. I try taking a few more pictures but only get 2 before it floats into more clouds. I stare at it briefly before the clouds completely cover it. Just like 2 months ago, the whole thing lasted about an hour, and it was roughly between the two points the last ufo “floated” between. Upon closer inspection of my photos, I realized it was a strange “capsule” shape, made up of 4 lines: dash, line, dash, line.
