Full Description & Details
I have just woken up from a dream, it was 5 A.M. in the morning. It was starting to get cold in November. I noticed from my bed room window a star was blinking. I thought it would die out and disappear, instead it would stop blinking and remain a glow. It looked like a star at first but it was brighter than the other stars. It began flashing again and then it would stop flashing. For the third time it began flashing but this time I referenced it against a tree that was near my view. Realizing that it was moving very slowly and almost unnoticibaly. I pulled a set of binoculars from my brother who did not care to wonder what it is after he had seen it thru the binoculars. Thru the binoculars I can see the details, it looked like a giant(judging by the distance in the sky) diamond shape object, floating stationary. It had a very bright flood light at each side of the object, and one glowing a lot brighter at the center. It looks like there is an opening in the center from where the brighter light came from. I watch the object til 7 a.m. The sky lit blue, the other stars fainted but this object remained looking like a star in static at that very spot, ofcourse without the binoculars. This time a commercial air liner pass by beneath it, a few minutes later by a millitary figther jet of some sort. Having had experience sky diving in the past it looked like to me that the jumbo jet was small compared to this object. The object had to have been close to the edge of the atmosphere in space and several miles long for it's size to almost compare to the jumbo jet at view, considering that the airplane pass below it almost looking like it were the same size. Then I had to leave for school. Later that afternoon the object was gone.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?
No due to the specific proportions of it's accuracy against the environment.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting
I knew a lot of old stories and hoax pictures, and a few credible pictures. A have read a lot. But I never knew anything of such extraordinary size(miles).

Other Comments
Growing up I've always had a strange recurring dream(as far as 8yrs old) where I find myself running in an open field at dawn or night time. I would stare at the sky as I'm running, and there is a great war in the sky. There were space crafts moving in the sky. Although I knew in my drew they were space ships, they looked more like living organisms.
