Red glow from unseen object

I am currently a librarian. On a summer night in 1964 or 1965, my brothers and mother and myself observed a red light bathe the backyard, there was no sound, no wind, nothing but the light. It's appearance was similar to the "safelight" used in darkroom photography. Then it was gone, like a light being switched off. Details of the source were not visible, you could only see the red-orange round source of the light itself.

I remember looking out the screen door, walking outside, looking up and then the next thing I remember is looking back into the house with the light gone.
