I was driving home when I saw a bright orb in the sky. It resembled a star or planet however it was a little bigger. It had a very bright yellowish/orange glow which gave it an oval like shape.
At first I thought it might be a plane with its bright landing lights or a helicopter with a spotlight or something. The object then appeared to drop in altitude towards the ground but not at a fast rate. It actually was moving at a slower rate than an airplane typically seems to travel.
At first, when it began to drop in altitude, I thought a plane or something was on fire and falling towards the Earth due to the intense brightness. It then leveled off just above the treeline.
All this happened while I was driving.
I pulled into my driveway and got out of my car to see if I could hear a plane or helicopter, but I heard nothing. I ran inside to call my girlfriend to tell her about what I saw.
I went back outside and could see the glow just through the top of the tree line. It appeared to be hovering.
I went back inside to get my camera but the battery was dead. I then went outside one last time, but it was gone.
