Bright star like object, then dimmed rather quickly but moved slowly
A bright light as big as a star caught my eye but then slowly faded as it moved across the sky. I have seen satellites many times before but this object becames suddenly bright then dimmed all in about 30 seconds directly above me. It seemed very odd to me. It was moving south to north slowly. About the speed of a satellite but dimmed quite quickly. Again, it just seemed out of the ordinary. It was white and out shined every other star at first. I'm sure other people saw it.
