Orb or disc hovering by Buckley AFB at night

I was leaving Aurora, Colorado, heading south on E470 towards I-25. It was around 12:20 am on September 16th, 2023, that I noticed something flying in the sky maybe less than 1000ft in the air. I’ve worked in both military and private aviation and noticed immediately how strange the lights were for the craft. It had very bright white lights that were doing a wave-strobe effect to it, looked like the white lights were rotating around the craft while strobing. It also had two bright reddish/orange lights on the top and bottom that were pulsating with intensity. When I first noticed it, it seemed to be passing my field of view quickly as I was driving, but then it stopped moving and stayed still. It then started moving slowly towards Buckley Air Force Base on the other side of E470. I tried to watch it longer, but I was also driving on the highway and nearly got into a crash because it was hard to not look at this thing. As I moved closer to I-25, it went closer to Buckley and then it left my field of vision. Because of the time of night and highway lights it was difficult to discern any real shape to it, but it did have a pale blue glow at the bottom of it.
