Strange ball of light moving slowly across central Iowa.

This happened on the night of the 17th of December at 5:45pm. I was outside and looking at this star off to the west of us.

I started to go inside and remembered I had forgot something. I told my wife that this star is sure bright tonight, and I looked to the south of us and that's when I seen this ball of light moving rather slow. I said to my wife look at this thing, it was moving to the west, had no flashing lights, or no sound.

It was at a low altitude, lower than what the smaller airplanes would usually fly. I kept watching it and all of a sudden it dissapered, just like you would turn a lamp off.
