falling star that curved around and came right up in front of me , firery orange/blue neon green ring around it

i am from tennessee but live in roanoke va and didnt believe in ufo and such until i took a cruise on the carnival legend , we left tampa port on the 6th of sept around 4pm and was at sea the rest of the day and night and at sea the next day which was the 7th of sept. we past by cuba sometime on the 7th and we could see it from the ship, that night me and my family had went to bed they all fell asleep, but i couldnt sleep so i got up on the side of bed and was looking at the moonlight on the ocean when i saw what i thought was a falling star it came down almost to the water then bent or curved around coming towards the ship then it came what looked to be right up to the our window of our room it looked the size of a softball , with a firery orange/blue glow with a slight neon green haze ring around it, the object stoped at the window with a 5 sec pause in the air then shot off down side the ship. my first reaction to this was kool a fallin star, then when it! turn and started coming towards me it honesty scared me i thought that we had a rocket or something coming at us but when it came to the window and stopped for those few sec, i just stared at the object and felt like a peaceful feelin...that was the freakest thing that i have ever saw!!!!! CAN SOMEONE TELL ME ,WHAT THIS WAS????
