Bright orange stationary light that disappeared quickly.

I was in my car about to turn into my driveway when I looked up into the sky and saw a stationary bright orange colored light with thin beams of light coming from it. I watched it for about 10 seconds. I looked away for a second, and when I looked back, it was gone. The object was about 2/3 the size of the full moon and was north-east from my location, and was as high as a helicopter would fly.
