Naked eye watching early morning sky finds Mars planetary movement vs.an unidentifiable object hovering like a helicopter

Not sure if we are seeing Mars and effects of Earth's rotation, but very noticably bright flashlight type object with "hovering" movement resembling pendulum like left, up and right, almost helicopter like.

Object appeared at distance of 4 index fingers measured from ocean surface to air, and at last viewing over 2 hours had moved to position of 12 index fingers from ocean surface to air...now, at 6:15 appearing more as "bright morning star" or planet Mars...movement not as pronounced now as it was at first sighting.

During this two hour period also witnessed two falling stars, satellites and planes with distinctive qualities from this bright object.
