Shape: Light

Approx 7pm on Dec 21, 2019 i was outside and noticed what i thought was maybe a big meteor or similar object. It was very big and bright white colored light in the N.E direction of the sky. It was VERY clear since the moon was not visible. It was the only light in the entire sky at the angle we were seeing it from. It would hover, then move, hover & start moving again for quite a few minutes(5). Then it just suddenly just took off across the dark sky. My mother and I both witnessed this amazingly bright and odd acting "ufo". The moon is not visible tonight and it was about a 30% visibility in the sky but this light was extremely obvious. You couldn't miss this thing. Within the first 2 mins of this sighting we also saw 4 military planes heading(VERY close together)coming from the West heading to the N.E. direction this light originated from. The size MASSIVE & it was so noticeable in the sky it was strange. After about 5 mins watching the light pi! cked up speed and just simply zipped very quickly completely across the viewable sky. It was heading SW. We watched in total about 8-ish mins until it was no longer visible at our location. This was NOT the ISS, nor was it an aircraft we're familiar with. It would glid, then hover, then it would glid again,then hover...it repeated this for the majority of the time it was observed. The 4 airplanes we seen were making a very quick B-line to the NE sky. It was obvious they were together as well as they were heading to rd the same destination with clear hast. I've seen anomalies in the sky quite often lately but I've never witnessed something as massive or as obvious as this was. It was AMAZING. The lights were a bright white color, the shape was hard to make out but did seem like a sphere shape. There were no sounds from this object heard. It did actually have a aura around it, kind of similiar to a fog that faded out. The entire sphere was illuminated from our location. All o! ne color. The light did seem to brighten, then fade .... Then ! brighten and fade, it repeated this pattern until it quit hovering. When it would brighten the light would increase in size but the color remained the same. It was Unnatural lighting, anti gravity movements and impossible speed. It went from one end of the sky to the other within about 3 mins and was SO big and bright it IMMEDIATELY was noticeable and odd. It was drastically different and unusually bright from any the norm that anyone actually looking would have seen this with amazing ease!
