I steped outside around 1055 pm to watch fireworks. I seen an orange light in the same path as approach to ohare and midway airports. Thought first was a dull helo light. then it looked like orange ball with moving yellowish light below. Then I thought maybe some launched a big rocket. But I watched it rise from 10 o clock in the east to 12 o clock getting smaller and no explosions. I realized it was not a plane or helo. It seemed to be rising and disappeared from eye sight at about 2 o clock.getting to small to see. 10 o clock in the east heading straight to 2 o clock in the west. it almost looked like a rocket launch but without a trail. it was a orange ball with a yellowish orange trail that was about the same size as the object that rotated around the orange object.
