VERY bright light in sky traveling NW faded “on” for 7 seconds then faded “off”.

One object faded “on” into view above our apartment. It was high, but not like an airplane, nor Starlink (which I’ve seen many times). It was like a SLOW and VERY BRIGHT shooting star. Never seen a shooting star move this slowly. Traveled north west. Then faded “off.” The whole thing was like 7 seconds of having our eyes on it. My neighbor and I both saw it.
