A small Orange "Plasma" Orb moves silently and slowly over several houses on a straight line.

On Autumn 2015-16, at about past 6 PM, my father and I were cleaning the garden when one of us spotted an orange light in the distance (southwest), a few houses away from ours. The orb was bright and still, but we didn't pay much attention to it until a few minutes had passed. When we looked up, the orb was right above our neighbor's yard (the yard next to ours).

Apparently, the light was not still; all this time, it was moving in a straight line. After that, it came right overhead of us. It was orange in color, did not make any noise, and was moving really slowly. The object was bright, and we couldn't see any structure inside it (if there was any). I can't recall if it did any movement other than moving straight. It then went about another 100 meters, and we couldn't see it anymore as it went past a hill with trees, I took a minute to go out of my house and run after the orb, but when I rounded the hill, it had already disappeared.

The only exceptional thing I recall is how low it was flying. I could have thrown a rock, and it would probably have hit it.
