On October 28th 2022 approximately 9:08 pm I took my dogs outside when I look up to stare at the stars. It was clear and I could see the stars bright, when I noticed an orange glow of light flying from east to west across the sky. I tried to squint my eyes to see if there were any aircraft beacons as it flew over, but it seemed as if it was a ball of light. As it passed over where I was standing I could tell it was flying low at about any small aircraft flies, but there was no sound whatsoever coming from it. I could see the stars behind it as it flew over me, then an airplane flew by at a higher altitude and I could see the airplane's lights flashing red and green I could see the airplane's front light and tail light, and I could hear the engines too. So whatever the orange glow that flew past was, I'm sure it wasn't a drone nor a plane.
Thank you for your time reading this.
The trajectory of the object was from east to west over the city of Aurora Illinois.
