Light 1/3 size of the moon distintly round but hazy when all the stars were sharp and crisp.

Round white light a third the size of the moon sat stationary for 2 minutes and then began to move north. The object then slowly curved east and then left a square puff of smoke that was lighted and wavy. Through the smoke you could see the object getting smaller. A few minutes later it had a long V shaped tail similar to a comet and continued directly east. The light got smaller and smaller. Then another puff of square smoke that was lighted. As the object traveled east it eventually was as small visually as a star in the sky with no visible tail until it was too far away to see. It never went up. Just straight east. There were a few clouds that were dark because the moon didn't come up in the sky until around 1:30 am. The object was stationary for several minutes before it began to move. I called my brother to see if he could see it from a city 70 miles away but he was unable to get outside so just stood on the phone while I explained frantically what I was seeing. It was enough to have me very animated and was so confusing I decided to report this one even though I have had at least five other different sightings and experiences I have never reported. The entire time there was no sound on a mostly clear and quiet night.
