I looked out my bedroom window and saw a ferris wheel type shaped object hovering and glowing red, yellow and green.

I was getting into bed and just happened to look out the window and I caught a glimpse of a glowing object in between the trees. I just thought that it was another airplane and was waiting for it to clear the trees so that I could get a better look at it. When it finally did clear the trees, I saw this extra large glowing object that was round. It had greenish, reddish, and yellowish glowing lights. The only way I can really describe it is that it looked like a ferris wheel with the lights glowing and pulsing. At first I didn't have my glasses on and I thought it was blurry so I put my glasses on and it was the same. It looked like it was just hovering in the air, or moving very slowly in the north western direction. Then all of a sudden it sped up and quickly took off to the west and I couldn't see it anymore. It was making a sound that I could hear and it sounded kind of like a humming sound and it sounded like it was low to the ground. My son was in the other room and when I went into the room to ask him if he saw or heard it, he said that he heard it and that it sounded like it was really low to the ground. I was just amazed at the shape and the glowing lights of this thing in the air.
