Large stationary high altitude object above SW Atlanta Sky in broad daylight

Mid-afternoon, full daylight I spotted a spherical object in the SW sky.

The object appeared to be much higher than aircraft presumed to be flying at approximately 30,000 ft cruising altitude.

I would estimate about 50,000 ft and appeared to be larger than commercial aircraft.

The object appeared to be stationary. I site lined the object with the plumbing vents on the roof of my house for confirmation. A neighbor was in the adjacent yard. He also saw the object very clearly. I also called a friend who is a Government Building Inspector. He was able to pull into a parking lot and also saw the object.

My girl friend arrived while the neighbor and I were viewing the object, and she also saw it.

We were amazed that it was stationary for over 45 minutes before the angle of the sun and cloud cover concealed it.
