Default Unknown light

Took a break at 8pm and went out side. I took a glance at the sky to
see what kind of cloud cover we have and to see if I wanted to attempt to
set the scope up or not. I faced North and up at about a 50-60 degree angle
and out of the blue was a star. It was still far to bright for stars and
yet there it was. For Jupiter and Saturn I'd have to face South and since I
couldn't see them yet I'd assume I wouldn't be able to see any other stars
for at least an hour. Venus and the Moon were out to the East so I knew it
wasn't Venus and this was stationary for 15 minutes so I knew it wasn't a
plane or satellite. I had my Brother come out and take a look, Between the
clouds he seen it so it wasn't my eye's either. Suggestions on what it
could have been?
