Weird orange glowing ball of light moving slowly across the sky and gradually diminishes.

At first we thought it was a weird plane but alas, no blinking lights and it was orange and glowing. It moved across the sky from northeast to southwest and gradually diminished until we couldn’t see it behind the trees. Seemed pretty close and definitely different than any falling star we’ve seen, plus it moved too slow and lasted too long. Weird!
