Translucent metallic sphere full of color

My wife's alarm went off to get ready for work. I got up to have a cigarette and heard a humming sound when I cracked the door open. As I step out the noise gets more quiet. I look up above me and about 15 feet up was a sphere, it was by the tree and above my well.I got a good look at it. Best description is fire in the sky but it wasn't fire the inside had orange, red and yellow colors that were spinning almost looked like a galaxy inside as the whole thing flashed also, but it was not glass it was like translucent metal a very advanced small flying device not from this planet for sure. It went straight up then to the left in the opening above my trees, at this point I grabbed my dog and put the dog inside I felt threatened. I put the dog in and looked out the door and didn't see it. I stepped back out and seen it had moved closer to the house but above the tree. I just got a new phone and was trying find the camera and it moved back left in the opening.I s! tayed close to the door as it went straight up and to the left, then it went to the right above my trees slow and I had the door held open at this point, when it was out of my view I got back inside and told my wife. I went back out and it was gone last I seen it was headed west. It was a little bigger than a bowling ball maybe beach ball size and made sense on how it was flying it could sit still move any direction quick or slow. This was way too advanced to be ours it's not from this planet. My dog would not go outside in the morning she was scared to go out and refused. We live way out in the country it had no business here.
