On 07/30/2014 my wife, teenage grandson, and I were visiting at app.10:45 PM in Toluca Il. I was facing a window when I noticed the dark, bright red orb in the sky moving West to East. I brought it to their attention and the 3 of us got up and moved to the window and observed the object for a few seconds then went outside for a better look. I couldn't tell how far away this thing was but it looked about the size of a full moon almost directly overhead. It wasn't traveling at a high rate of speed but more like the speed of a small plane.The color was a dark red like fire but no flames were visible. As it traveled East away from us it faded from dark red to orange then yellow to red again. I estimate that we viewed it for at least 20+ seconds.As it was nearing the end of our sight it curved from East to South then disappeared. We didn't hear any sound or see any other activity in the sky. No pictures were taken.
