Extremely bright light focused into several white lights with greenish/blue light, floated across road and vanished

Driving down Michigan Avenue East towards Detroit, I noticed a large, extremely birth light that automatically grabbed my attention. It was too high to be a streetlight, but I thought that it could possibly be an indicator fr airplanes. Regardless, I was transfixed.

As I drove closer, expecting to find the pole to which it was attached, it seemed to drop in the sky. I assumed this was just spacial relation due to my coming nearer, but it dropped vertically in the sky and gradually moved across Michigan Avenue as I was driving straight ahead.

Driving under it, I simply could not take my eyes of it. If it had been a plane, it was flying unusually low, and had a very strange shape. Given that I've seen many planes flying at night, and the constancy of this objects light (as opposed to the strobe action of planes), this was not a plane.

So enthralled by the hovering craft, that just seemed to linger over the building opposite the side it just crossed, I pulled off to the shoulder and tried not to let it leave my sight.

In the time between me taking my seatbelt off and clamboring to the passenger window, it was gone.

One of the strange things I noticed about this was my inability to identify just how close it was. As I got closer to its location above me, I could differentiate it from a mass of really bright light, into a grouping of lights that centered a greenish/blue light. I thought that it could be some remote control objectt because I was stumped as to how close it was, and what it was doing.

There is no possible way that could have a plane. The brightness of the light, the motion, and my inability to identify anything at all common about that object tell me one thing - I witnessed something incredibly out of the ordinary.
