Stepped outside for fresh air therapy and bogey! all of a sudden a spark!- to the West

Stepped outside coffee shop for a fresh air therapy break out on the west facing sidewalk area at approx 05:33hrs and all of a sudden a single -spark!- bronze-ish BB gun BB did it resemble, in center most part of this sphere with a typical yellowish-white haze/aura around the sphere appeared/ing in the early morning sky and @ approx 11,000ft its easternly heading trajectory 'momentum' from the west was familiar, obvious. I decided it was not a planet (that bright? IMO? no) and it was not a star. The quick moving cloud cover at say 4,000 and 9,000ft gave no indication of false illusion from this. It had a certain momentum that was noticeable in that this craft veered to port (left) and slowed trajectory as well heading mostly in a N.E. direction now.

As it sailed on it went mostly overhead and eventually visual tracking by me was lost.

*for whatever reason the center of that craft and its very obvious BB gun BB bronze-ish colour had impacted me at this first observation of a craft like that that had such a draw to and why for? I am entirely uncertain.

Previous description of same event:

Just stepped outside of coffee shop for early morning fresh air therapy and outta know where

At approx 05:33hrs as I took in some fresh air therapy on the sidewalk area directly outside of the coffee shop out in the early morning sky, out of nowhere, suddenly now! there's a single bronze-ish, yellow-whitish spark! I rapidly took in what it potentially was and wasn't. A planet? Nope. Star appearing to wander in and around those broken multi level clouds overhead? Ah, no.

My interest now piqued I took up a fixed gaze upon this familiar looking object flying in a clear West to East trajectory. At say 11,000ft. For whatever reason the bronze-ish, BB ball center sphere was obvious and surrounded by usual yellowish/white glow, radiance etcetera. Yet even after I lost the object to the clouds overhead I began heading back into the coffee shop and I found myself muttering on about "that bronze BB gun ball looking" sphere. At the center of that sphere…
