Single light, moving across the sky in blinking and swaying motion.
Was outside looking up at the night sky to catch some of the Orionid meteors. A faint light caught my eye, which resembled a satellite or the ISS going over except for the it's motion and intermediate visibility.
Another person watching the sky with me confirmed what I saw.
The object moved in one general direction, but in 2-3 second bursts (fading quickly to nothing) and kind of turned in a short arc to the left, before fading, then turning in a short arc to the right, then fading. It kept a consistent rhythm with this motion, but upon reappearing was back in the straight path of travel before turning once again off course.
My initial thought was that an airplane may be going overhead and we were seeing a left wing indicator, followed by the right wing indicator, but the obvious arc motion the object made upon each burst of light really couldn't have been possible if it was only the tip of an airplane wing. I've also never seen an airplane travel in that path before.
The object was in view for 45 - 60 seconds as it crossed the sky. Appeared to be a white/bright blue colored light.
