Red flashing light in sky above Windsor Connecticut

I was taking out the trash at around 4:40 am. Looked up at the sky and saw a singular flashing red light holding a steady pattern. It seemed to travel across the sky holding a constant speed. I stared at it for about 40 seconds trying to see if I could see any additional lights to discern it to be an airplane, but when I realized that it was the only blinking light I knew what I was looking at was very strange. I turned my back to get my sister from inside and as I stepped onto the porch about 20 feet away I looked back and it had vanished from sight.
