Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Aircraft nearby

Silent, fast moving, extremely bright orb crossed in front of the moon.

This UFO made no noise, left no vapor trail, was as bright as Venus which I also saw rising in the east. It came from NNW headed ESE as it crossed in front of the moon. I watched this for about 60 seconds and I couldn't see it anymore. It was moving as fast as a commercial jet would move but a jet would make noise and wouldn't be that bright. It was like a spotlight, very bright, as bright as the moon. I also spotted a conventional aircraft moving in a parallel path to the object but about 30 degrees distant. The plane was obviously a plane and the UFO was obviously NOT a plane.
