Flashing sphere changes to black disk

We were driving on I-40 on our way to Las Vegas for a convention, when we noticed a bright sphere of light in the sky that flashed 5 times, then stopped, then flashed 5 times again and stopped. It did this several times, then suddenly the black shape of a disk appeared where the flashing sphere had been for about 15 seconds then vanished.

We kept watching to see if it came back, but we never saw it again. My wife and I were quite surpised by this. The sky was perfectly clear and visibility was near perfect. The object was over some mountains in the distance from I-40 where we were driving.
