Light moving erratically in sky

Was viewing stars and skyline area towards southern direction over Denver skyline when a very very bright white light just appeared above common flight paths that planes take from DIA. As light appears I watch for a few seconds and the bright white light begins moving east in a horizontal perspective from my viewing. After traveling for a few seconds in what looked like a level flight path it in an incredible speed dips drastically and then recorrects itself from downward back into an upward direction almost in a partial U shape back into the atmosphere and disappears.
