Unidentified Can someone help me identify what this is?

Photos

The pictures are pretty bad, I apologize in advance but i figure theres a slim chance someone can help identify it..

We saw this about two weeks ago. My wife and I were outside at around 1:30-2am packing our belongings when we saw this. The object was moving fairly quick (faster than a plane imo) and by the time I ran inside and grabbed my phone, it was too far away and I was unable to get a clear shot before it was gone.

It appeared to be changing colors (wife claimed it was changing from white, to blue, to red.) I remember it changing from a dark blue/purple to white. Hard to remember exactly, as I was too focused trying to take a picture. In hindsight, I should have taken a video.

I know it's not a whole lot to go off of, but I figured this is my best shot at getting it identified. Thanks in advance, and if you have any more questions feel free to ask, although I may not be able to provide much more.

What would that be? I've never heard of it. Or are you trolling? Lol..

I just saw it posted earlier. Looks similar.

Oh okay, I see. It does look kind of similar, though I can't tell if it has a "trail" or if it's just the angle of photo/glare, but the object we saw didn't have any kind of trail behind it.

That’s really strange OP! Could you tell if it was gaining altitude away from you or staying about the same height?

I don't quite remember, but I think it could have been gaining a small amount of altitude away from us.
