wiht naked eyes, a very bright while light that looked half ballof yarn with black portholes through binoculars

ver bright white light seen in southwest sky light had "angel" pointed-end beams enitting from it in cross shape similar to classic "christmas" star tha wise men followed.

looked at it with binoculars for 20minutes, it looked like a ball of yarn cut in half through the binoculars It had black round "portholes" - two or three - the would change postions on the "half-sphere" at one time the portholse made the object look like human face with iwde open moouth.

the object would slowly rotate in place and shift the direction it was facing - like gyroscope but very slow - if it was facing you, it was circular, if pointed sideways, it was like ball of yarn cut in half (half sphere) the surface of it had tubes or veins wrapping around it- why ball of yarn is pretty good description.

I looked at for awhile couldn figure out what it was and left it at that! It never really moved in its postiion in the sky druing the time I looked at it.
