Orange glowing circle in the sky

I was inside my parent's house. I'm really unsure even of the year of this event, as I remember I was in college, but not much more than that. My sister calls me to the deck to see something in the sky. I go outside and hovering in the east was a large orange circle--glowing. It could have been the Sun, but in was in the east and it was after sunset. We watched it for a few minutes, then she said "it's going away". I didn't think so at first, but suddenly it zipped away (strait away from us), at a high velocity, to the point that it looked like it just shrunk in upon itself and vanished. It was weird and I've never seen anything like it again or before.
