Orange ball seen over neighborhood in Timonium, Maryland

I was sitting on a clock tower on padonia road in Timonium, Maryland. I could see my entire neighborhood and all of the sky from that vantage point. I looked up and I saw an orange ball very high in the sky over my neighborhood. The orange ball was about double the size of a regular star. The ball was motionless for about 25 seconds and then it moved very fast and squiggeled, left a faint trail of orange and was gone. When it "squiggeled" out of view it looked like it left a wiggely trail or tracer of orange behind it, which quickly disappeard. The night was fairly clear. The object seen made no sound.
