Moderately paced moving deep orange light on craft moving East to West

Deep orange light moderately moving through lower sky, 4-6 times larger than typical Venus viewing. Clearly, the second brightest object in the sky, after the moon. Caught sight when it was due north, it moved towards the west in a deliberate moderate pace staying at the same altitude. Absolutely, no sound, no navigation or beacon lights. Halfway through the total time seen the light began to slowly dim but not uniformly, it did not fade in a linear fashion, it seemed more sporadic or inconsistent. Once the light was completely extinguished, I was able to continue to view whatever had generated it. It was more or less the same size and I could see its contrast against the moonlit sky (The moon was about 3\4 full, sky was clear with no cloud cover in any direction). Could not see any details or exact shape, I could just see this indistinct dark spot traveling at the same pace until it past some trees that ruined my line of sight. The light itself was an amazing deep orange color, not a fireball and NOT vivid like an LED, it was deep warm orange, uniform in color until it began to turn off. Although, not fast by airplane standards, it was too fast to be a drone and the color of the light was not like an LED as are drones. The light was organic-like in color, like a gaslight or a flame but not flickering.
