Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Bright object pulsing and dissapearing stationary in the sky

On November 23rd we were driving, on seventh street in Louisville Kentucky, traveling southwest towards Berry Blvd when we noticed an object in the sky. At first we thought it might be a bright star, but the object appeared to pulse, which was quite abnormal.

Continuing to examine the object I noticed that it appeared to pulse slightly into a haze, as if the object were having some sort of lensing effect applied to it, so I rolled down the vehicle window and looked at the object in the clear, and sure enough the hazing was not an effect of the windshield or any other glass or reflection.

While I was observing the object it pulsed and winked out. I would have thought nothing more of it except that it returned about 4-seconds later. Upon further observance as we approached berry blvd, the object again pulsed but the effect seemed longer and brighter with angular stabbing lights extending from it briefly. I looked and noted it was not a plane, had no running lights of any kind and as I was checking to see if it was mounted on a tower, the object disappeared again. 4 seconds or thereabouts later, it re-appeared.

It was certainly not the moon, it wasn’t a plane and the object didn’t move, nor was it mounted on a tower. I’m not aware of any object that can dead hover, produce no sound, and pulse and disappear and reappear staying roughly two to three hundred feet in the sky. I’m not sure what it was.
