Large bright light and circular disk shaped object that hovered for nearly 25 min and disapeared with out a trace.

At approximately 22:05 on sunday, dec 3rd my brother was walked up to our kitchen window and say an extremey bright white light up in the sky over the Concord Naval Station and Concord Airport. My brother told my mom and I and we went outside and watched it for about 25 min. At first we thought it was an airplane but it was hovering stationary the whole time we saw it. The light was much brighter than an airplanes light, it lit up the whole sky. There were a few other airplanes in the sky during this period but they didnt even compare in size or brightness. It was much larger then anything any of us have ever seen before in the sky. It was circular and shaped like a disk and must of been the size of 2 football fields. We looked at it through our telescope and it was very hard to see the object because the light was so bright. It looked gray and we saw what looked to be 2 fin shaped things close together on one side. Then after about 25 min and approximately 22:25 we looked up and it was completely gone. It was there and then it was gone and there were no traces of it. There must of been other people who saw this and I would like to hear from them.
