Extremely bright white curved object hovering in SE night sky.

My wife and I were getting ready to go to bed, and she was at the kitchen sink getting some water when she looked out the window and saw a very large object with extremely bright white light in the SE up above over our neighbors farm. We went and got the binoculars, I could see it was disk shaped and it had one large white light in the center and 2 or 3 smaller lights to the left & right next to the large middle light. There was also occasionally a very small faint white-blue flashing and faint reddish flashing lights too. It appeared to hovered and would very slowly move up and down and east and west several times. I watched it until 1am then went to bed. She watched it until 2am then went to bed with it still there in the sky.
