Blue light/object emerged from high cloud cover
I am an electrical engineer with a strong physics background.
The object appeared under high cloud cover probably about 5 miles north of my home, The object made some maneuvers that appeared to be out of the capabilities of human technology. It made both vertical and horizontal movements as it traversed the sky and also made a right hand turn and appeared to move in a strait line in that direction till out of my sight. Total view time was about 4 seconds. I ruled out a drone as the vertical and side to side movements were much faster than a drone is capable. Estimated distance in that travel was probably in the 2 to 3 miles range in that 4 seconds.
Using the high cloud cover as a reference, the object appeared to be small, similar to the size of the light source. The sunset was also not a factor as the whole region was thickly cloud covered.
I also ruled a laser out as there was no scattering as you'd expect when a laser hits a cloud. There was no scattering whatsoever. No noise observed as well.
