Observed a planet sized light moving north. Pulsating light in even intervals just under a second in duration. Speed/distance unknown

I came around the bend on the highway to a short straight way, immediately notice a very bright point of light above the horizon. Immediately my brains thinks planet but am urgently proven wrong when i noticed it flashing. I am very aware of different phenomena that can occur, like illusions with our atmosphere, natural events, satellites, debris, aircraft. I am usually very good at interpreting what i observe and have gone 26 years without seeing something truly inexplainable. This object was bright when pulsing and well bright enough to be a planet. The uniformity of the pulsing light had perfect intervals of light and dim. (it never truly went full dark) There was aircraft in the field of view that were easily discernable travelling much more east to west or vice versa. I thought maybe i was lucky enough to observe an astrological event close enough to earth that the effects would be visible to the naked eye. Then i noticed it was moving. It seemed to be moving perfectly in alignment with true north. If this object was in our atmosphere, as i watched it travel further away before disappearing into the horizon, then the rate of speed would be totally feasible by current technologies of man, but in that same token, the light source couldnt have been very large if it was in our atmosphere when i saw it. This means the light source would have gotten visibly smaller as it travelled further away from me if it was indeed in our atmosphere. Instead the size of the light and its brightness when pulsing stayed completely consistent as it travelled further away, which could indicate it being much much further away. I began taking verbal notes on my phone as i kept driving and pulling over, over and over again, trying to document the event. Furthermore id like to add, this was a silver light, that of stars and planets. There was no trail. Imagine you pushed a light maybe 20 percent larger than that of jupiter observed from earths surface, and pushed it lower in the sky down closer to the horizon. and imagine not only was it pulsing full bright to very dim in even intervals, but it was also moving in a straight line to what seemed to be true north. The direction of true north seems like a contradiction to me believing the object to not have been in our atmosphere. I dont know if this is truly a discrepancy or can be explained. I am hesitant about even making this report given the current news and media surrounding David Grusch. The odds that i see a UFO or astrological event occur during this specific time makes it absolutely unbelievable and fills me with even more embarrassment and anxiety to talk to piers about this. It would have been embarrassing and hard to talk about regardless, then you mix in the current news media. Its a fucking nightmare, Im a mess, and i cant explain what I just saw. Im a man of science and this doesn’t make any sense in my current understanding of any scientific model.
