Solid red lights over O'hare airport.

I walked outside and noticed a plane to the southeast at approx. 10,000 feet over O'hare airport traveling north.

I then noticed that the two red lights ( on the wings? ) were not blinking. This attracted my attention, so I kept watching.

As it got east of me and passed, the two red ligts (on the front?) became two white lights with a red light in the middle. Still no blinking or strobing.

As it traveled north, it had more the look of a satelite in speed and altitude.
