Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

Long duration, dash-like appearance, intermittent disappearing.

Just before sunset. Object in hovering-type behavior. Slow moving. Slowly moved from SSW towards the North. It intermittently faded in and out from view as it moved. Then it was gone for a few minutes and reappeared a few degrees to the South and started moving towards the South.

It was difficult to identify the shape. Using binoculars it appeared ash-like but reminiscent of the To The Stars Academy footage. Kind of bulky on one side, narrow on the other. But not egg-shaped. Seemed to rotate in a similar manner. I'd guess the height was anywhere from 5 miles up to 20 miles.

I already tried to look up if any weather balloons were released but couldn't find any leads.
