Observed bright red object over the Barcelonetta area in Barcelona, Spain

Clear unusually starry night for Barcelona, Spain. The object was observed from the terrassa of a four story building. The object was bright red and circular light. Bigger than what airplane lights look like at night. The object was first observed above and near the Barcelonetta from my vantage point. A guesstimated distance of + - 7 km. the object was moving too slow to be an airplane at that altitude. There was no discernible sound from the object. El Prat Llobregat airport is just outside of Barcelona. Planes can be seen and heard arriving and departing, plane can also be heard going overhead. From my vantage point, the bright red object was too big to be a helicopter. While going along the coast and slowly rising, the object almost came to a complete stop. The object then proceede to go away from the Barcelonetta over the Medeterrainian Sea still slowly rising, the red light changed intensity a little bit and then disappeared.
