Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

Object sighted in bi-noc while stargazing. Object in sight for approx 2.5 3.0 sec due to other object in sight (tree) object moved faster then any other object veiwed in this area due to sky/stargazing. Am familar with both civilan and military aircraft both older and current.

The object was first sighted while stargazing with bi-noc's. Object was in focus, but slightly distorred due to speed of traval across veiwing area. Attepmts to re-aquire object after passing by trees unsuccessful. object was chevron shaped with 6 circles inside the chevron. (each circle was seperate from the others by approx .05" in the bi-noc's) Object was moving at extremely high speed and was viewed for 2.5 - 3.0 seconds prior to loss of sight due to tree in vision. The chevron was very visable around the circles and appeared almost to be a "B-2" shape with no idendifiable markings or identifiable as a B-2 due to the lack of the "tail" section. This was NOT, repaet NOT a overfly of the B-2 or any other USAF, US Army, US Navy or civilian Aircraft that I have veiwed in the last 10 years or prior to that.
