Loud Low Rumble followed by Orange Light

Drawn outside by loud rumble that began and ended two times, similar to passing plane but lower pitch. No Doppler effect, noise just stopped. Then a bright orange light that had been stationary low on horizon just above the tree line moved approx 1 mile in 1 minute from E to NE. Looked like moving streetlight or a plane with no blinking lights. Disappeared out of field of view behind building in foreground and didn't come out other side. Local airport had no flights listed. I waited several minutes. no further noise or lights. I did get some video but it is not very clear.
