Orange/yellow object east of Maricopa, AZ, traveling south toward Tucson, AZ

Object was orange-yellow in color. No noticeable aircraft markers or strobes. Seemed to drop in altitude and leveled off at tree level when I first noticed it. Object was traveling from north to south and looked to be just east of the 10-free way. No sound but distance may of masked if any. Moved rather quickly covering a distance from just east of Maricopa, AZ. to south toward Tucson, AZ. Lost sight as object moved beyond ground obstructions.
