large object sillouted in sunset hovering over estrella mountain.

while driving down old price road to work at Intel Corp, I looked west to the sunset and saw an immense object silhouetted by the sunset. I stopped the car and tried to figure out what object was. The object was stationary or headed straight towards me. it was in my best judgement either behind or above the southern end of Estrella mountain. torwards and slightly north the town of Maricopa. The object had no anti collision lights whereas i could see other aircraft in the sky flashing their anti collision lights. It eas immense and I tried to figure out if it was a blimp or maybe a hot air ballon that was actually closer than I though it was. I stopped the car and tried to take pictures with my Nikon S3000 however it was very difficult to get the settings right in the failing light. I watched the object hover until I had to report to work (about 15 min).
