I was taking out the trash and happened to look up in front of me and saw 2 orange lights hovering. one above the other. i knew this was not any kind of aircraft and was a ufo. i knew because the lights began to move very quickly up and down and side to side, then did figure eights. the top one did this first and then the top one faded out then the bottom one did the same kind of movements then also faded out. i was shocked but very interested. i was actually very thrilled i finally got to see a ufo. also the air force base we live close to was very bright and seemed to have a very "smokey" cloud right above and their lights where very bright. the air base has never been like this before.
