Red sphere in sky.

At 21:15 or so, I was in my kitchen looking out the window and noticed a glowing dark orange/red sphere in the sky behind the tree line.

The object seemed very odd so I made my way outside to observe it further.

Whatever it was, the object was heading Northeast at fair amount of speed.

I watched it for a good 7-8 minutes before it ultimately accelerated and was quickly out of sight.

My house is on a private driveway and the streets were also devoid of any vehicles, so it was very strange, as I have aircraft flying by routinely, but this one had no sound at all and there were no other lights on it.
