ball of light in sky. stayed hovering above the house, moved to trees. then vanished about 15 min later.

I was sitting in my room, on my bed (it faces the window.) all of the sudden the house shook a little and I went outside to see what it was. This ball of light was above the house in the sky. I thought it was a star and so I went back inside, I thought to myself it had to be to bright to be a star so I went out again, and it had moved. I was in the trees. I went upstairs to get a look from my room with the binoculars. It was round and very bright. I then looked away to check the time, it was about 10:30. I looked back again. It was there for a split second longer and then it just vanished. I have not seen it again since that night.
