Satellite looking object seen at sunset changes direction twice.
We were standing outside looking up because a bunch of fire helecopters were flying by at low altitude. It was around seven o'clock in the evening and the sun was going down. The sky was a grey blue. Exactly straight above my head, I noticed a dot of light in the sky. At first we thought is was a satelite catching the sun from the west (which would have been weird to see at that time with it being so bright outside.) At first it was moving from northwest to southeast. We couldn't figure for the life of us what it was and could only think it maybe was a satelite until it dead stopped and changed direction - to go south. Considering how far away it was, it had to be moving REALLY fast, and there was no trail. Then it stopped dead again for about a minute. The it changed direction completely and started moving northwest. Because it was so high up and moving into the light of the setting sun, we lost sight of it about a minute and a half later. We tried to videotape it, but the object was too small and close in color to the sky to pick it up on video.
