Satellite looking object made erratic movement in daylight in clear skys near Huntington WV.
I was riding an atv near my home when while taking a break looked up to notice what looked like a satellite or a plane very high up heading in a straight line south west from my location. After about 20 seconds or so watching, it came to a stop and headed the opposite direction slightly faster than it was traveling before. This lasted about another 25 seconds or so when the object seemed to move in a zig zag making a small W pattern twice. After that, the object made a U back in the opposite direction for a brief time before it disappeared for a couple seconds, returning in the same place half as bright, then disappearing for good. The sky was cloudless and very clear. The area is near an airport but i know that it was not a plane because of the way it moved. I have never seen anything like this before.
