Slow moving pink sphere changing from small to large (and back again) over Columbus, Ohio

I saw a slow moving, pinkish (red/orange/pinkish) sphere track across the sky this evening. Totally silent. No usual lights from an aircraft (no blinking tail lights or wing lights).. just a pink, slowly moving pink sphere heading west to east, slightly low in the sky (35 degrees).

The size and intensity of the light oscillated.. changing from larger sphere to a smaller sphere and then back again. It shifted from small to large about about 4-5 times. I watched it for about 60-90 seconds. It continued in the same direction and eventually faded to a glimmer and then gone. (Although it did *not* continue 'over the horizon' like a rocket..it continued in a straight line and faded out.

My impression was that it was heading in a totally straight line, taking it "outward" through the atmosphere and not simply down-range.
