Oval, with red and orange pulsating lights.

It was getting dark and I was just getting home. I pulled in my driveway and for some reason I looked at the sky above the treee tops. There I saw a bright light. It was oval shaped and in sections all the way around it, it was glowing red and orange lights. The lights were pulsating and the aircraft apeared to be spinning. At the same time it was swaying from side to side. I ran into the house to get some binoculars and when I came back outside it was gone. I stayed outside til I was frost-bit and never saw it again.
