Orange glowing object flies through Ohio Valley near Huntington, WV

The object appeared Saturday night, August 3, 2019, at approximately 9:23PM (ET). I was sitting with my wife on my patio facing NW, close proximity to the Ohio River, when I saw a large bright circle heading south. My location is in a rural area surrounded by rolling hills and forest. I immediately pulled out my smart phone and started recording. I have the entire event on video with audio. Within only a few seconds the object was almost directly overhead, moving fast and it appeared to be glowing orange. The speed of the object appeared to be similar to a jetliner. Over the next 30-40 seconds, the object continued south and flickered briefly, then disappeared entirely.

In this area, we see a lot of falling stars, satellites, and aircraft. This was unlike anything we've ever seen. More unusual was the object appeared to be guided rather than falling.
