The Objects that looked like the moon or a planet.

What had happend,was I was laying on my bed (my bed is next to one of my windows),and around midnight there was a moon shape - (it looked JUST like the moon,but wasn't.) It at first was getting smaller (NOT MOVING) - staying in the same spot,then it was getting bigger. It was white,and again looked like the moon,and glowed just like the moon. IT WAS NOT the moon that night. the moon was facing east that night,not west. Afterwards, I waiting watching it,and it started to crack,like for example you were to take an egg and crack the shells,and that's how it would be disappearing. It then disappeared all together. I waited and waited, an hour later around 1 am (I was full awake) Not sleepy or tired. There was an orange object,that I thought was a planet,it looked closer then the moon is,because it was bigger,and was the same shape as the object before. this time,this object was setting,as if the sun were setting (but I know for sure it was 1 am,and this got me freaked out a bit. After I saw it 30-45 mins. after it started to crack and disappear.
