Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted beams

Bright light headed East, swerving, boosting, pulsing. stopped, continued east, beam came from center.

I was walking down the street with a close friend of mine when I saw a extremely bright light moving east in the sky, I know it wasn't a plane because it was so bright and there was absolutely no blinking. I figured it was a satellite, but it was huge, easily 3/4 of a centimeter in diameter, and BRIGHT, we watched it move in a straight line east for almost a minute then everything changed it started accelerating for another 10-20 seconds then it briefly stopped, for just a moment, maybe half second then it headed east again. But now it wasn't moving in a straight line it was boosting; kind of swerving but every time it made a movement not eastward it was really fast. It was also kind of pulsing or breathing the; light never got darker, just brighter then back to normal. By this time it had moved from kind of over head/off my right temple at 2 o'clock; to 3/4 maybe less of the sky towards the horizon. At that point it was about to become obstructed by trees so i jumped on my bike and went as fast as i could to get a better view. i got to a clearing in the trees on my street and there it was still moving east i watched for another 5 seconds before a more white/blue, like a clean white color (as apposed to the color of the rest of it which was more of a white/yellow) beam came from the center of it, the beam was 1 1/2 centimeters long and from where i was almost paper thin looking like a millimeter in width, it continued east still swerving with the beam for another 10-15 seconds it was almost to the horizon and i lost it in some trees. whole sighting lasted between 2-3 minutes. Most amazing thing i have ever seen in my life.
