On Christmas day we saw an orange ball of light with a ring surrounding it in the sky.

I don't exactly remember everything because I was only six years old. I remember getting out of our car and standing in our apartment complex with my parents. My dad just started screaming at my mom to get the camera and I didn't understand why. Then he pointed in the sky. There was an orange sphere of light with a ring around it. It was relatively large compared to the small stars behind it. At the southeastern side of the ball and ring there was a blur almost as if an engine was letting out intense heat. We just stared at it for a while and then went back inside. I don't remember if it was moving or not, I just remember being terrified and wanting to go in my home.
