A matte black aircraft with a large red light on the back hovers for 5 minutes then flys away at insane speed into space.

It was 4th of July and I was watching fireworks with a friend of mine from my car out in a cow pasture. I began to notice one bright red light that appeared to be hovering about 3 miles away and approximately a quarter mile off the ground. I stopped looking at it until my friend pointed it out to me which made me inspect it more closely. It appeared at first to be a bright red football shaped light hovering in one spot but by its light I could see a matte black object in the shape of a large oddly shaped airplane. From the point I had first noticed until we both started inspecting it maybe 5 minutes had elapsed with this object which appeared to be at least 50 feet long and wide hovering in one place but as soon as we both looked closer it appeared to get dimmer until we realized it was because it had left at such an amazing speed that the bright light just appeared to get dimmer. it took off at a 30 degree angle headed directly away from us and up into a completely clear sky until it disappeared from distance.
