Metallic sphere sat motionless in the sky on a fairly windy day

I spotted a metallic sphere in a clear blue sky in the middle of the day. It was fairly windy and never moved. I was with a group of about 20 friends and only one other person was really able to see it because the sunlight was really bright. It stayed there for 2 hours and some time after it was gone. We were at approximately 7,000’ elevation and the object was 2,000’-3,000’ feet above us and slightly to the east.
