Size of a jumbo jet - Boomerang shaped

I was driving home at around 1:30 AM on King Sideroad, east of 27. As I was driving, I noticed what looked like a commuter jet flying at about 3000 feet. As I kept driving, I noticed it wasn't moving very fast. I continued driving east up the hill on King Sdrd. and noticed that it wasn't moving whatsoever.

I kept driving for about a minute, stopped on the side of the road, got out of the car, grabbed a pair of binoculars I always keep in my car and started looking at it. I estimated that it was traveling at about 50 miles/hr.

As I was watching it through my binoculars, it had no tail, just wings. Underneath, it had about 15 yellow and orange lights. There was no sound, it was just quietly humming. As it was going by, I got back in my car, turned it around and started driving west with it, thinking that I could maybe catch up to it. However, by then, a few cars had gone by and were in front of me. This made it difficult for me to catch up to it. I returned to Highway 27 and by then it was maybe a mile ahead of me.

I estimate that in about 2 1/2 minutes, it had traveled maybe 4 miles. I've traveled on various planes - from a concorde to a jumbo jet and it certainly wasn't anything I have seen before. The entire sighting lasted about 2 1/2 minutes, had that been any kind of airplane, it would've have traveled at least 20-30 miIes. I have no idea what it was, but I'm certain it wasn't an airplane or a helicopter.
