Orange light moving slowly without sound over Ipswich, SD

We had begun shooting off a few fireworks at about 21:30. There were nearly 20 of us present including several children under the age of 10. At 22:15 one of us noticed an orange light in the sky almost directly to the east of us maybe a few miles away. The light was moving above the tree line but quite a bit lower than an airplane. There was absolutely no sound at all with the light. It moved slowly towards us then veered slightly to the south and disappeared.
