As I was driving down Washington Avenue in Albany, Ny I noticed a red sphere floating across the sky just below or even with the clouds. This red sphere was pulsing not flashing like a light you would typically see on a helicopter or an airplane. The entire sphere was illuminated red, similar in color to the flame in a fire and kept pulsing dim to bright.

It was moving steadily but not too fast across the sky tracking northwest to southeast over Suny Albany around 12:08 a.m. on Thursday 9/20/2021, Wednesday night. Due to me being at work i was unable to get any pictures or video of this encounter per company policy.
 I am a bus driver for the local public transit company and this is not like anything i have ever seen in my life. I am 37 years old and have seen numerous planes and helicopters in the night sky as i typically work the night shift. I did notice another person pulled over his car and was standing outside of his vehicle watching this object move across the sky.
 Hopefully he was able to snap a picture or video of it and also reports it. I was going to take a video and pictures of it when i pulled into the local college and was able to park my bus, but as i turned into the college i looked back at where this object was and it was gone.
