orange fireball

Myself and one other person were packing up after a firework show when we noticed an orange glowing orb in the distance. we joked it was an a firework that forgot to explode.

there was no sound and no flashing lights like i would expect on any kind of aircraft.

it was slowly moving horizontally north to south and appeared to almost stop after moving a good distance.

it seemed to hover for a few seconds and then began moving straight up very quickly and disappeared.
