When first observed, I was woken up by thunder and lightning but noticed it was a generally clear sky. To the naked eye, it was observed as larger-than-a-planet light; with binoculars, it was a dark cross shape with light like shimmering rhinestones: three on each side of each arm. The brightest light was in the middle of the cross. Orange spherical object on right arm- like looking at a planet. It stood still for ten minutes then backed away steadily. When it became visible only as a light, it began moving in a fast spiral figure-8 motion until completely out of view.
