Bright light appears, two nights in a row, then disappears in thin air!

I saw this very bright light, like the light from an arc welder but just in the color gold .The first time on the 18th of Feb. and then the next night n the 19th again, It wasn't moving just sitting at that same location for approximately 45 min then it just went dark ,suddenly disappeared. Its altitude was extremely low ,it looked like it was moving just a little bit up and down while hovering in mid-air. Then it was just gone!
