Point of light with faint, wispy weather-balloon-shaped feature protruding from its side.

It was a point of light travelling slowly westward from about 5 deg west of Polaris, with a faint, comet-like tail protruding sideways toward the north. The end of the tail seemed to end in a roughly spherical cloud. It traveled westward for about 45 seconds where I lost sight of about 15 deg above a relatively brighter horizon. The fuzzy teardrop-shaped feature was large - about three times the diameter of a full moon.
