Red and orange light seen moving and hovering in Dover, PA.

At approximately 21:20, I witnessed what appeared to be a red spherical light containing an orange light within, simultaneously descending and approaching the area in which I stood. By my estimation the light seemed to be only slightly above tree level. I moved in the direction of the light hoping to capture its image on my cell phone; despite attempting twice I was unable to capture any definite image on the phone.

The light remained in one definite place for a period of approximately 20-30 seconds, appearing still in the night sky above the houses. The orange light within seemed to remain constant, appearing to slightly pulse to the naked eye. After remaining still for a 20-30 second period the light began to in the direction I guessed to be northeast. I lost sight of it several times when it was blocked by trees and each time I saw the light it appeared smaller. The light maintained a constant appearance, seeming to move slowly while I'm convinced it must have been moving with some definite speed. I ran, attempting to mark the movement of the light, hoping to identify exactly what it was.

By 21:25 I had lost sight of the light.
