5 to 8 orange light formation in the sky.my sister, her boyfriend and i walked outside to smoke when something caught my eye in the sunrise position in the sky...when i notice them and looked up and they was 5 to 8 orange looking lights in a weird format to which held its formation for 10 minutes. I ran to get my friend which was still in the house that was working on his home work (viginia tech grad student ) VP COMMERCIAL BANKER at a bank... to come see. none of us have ever seen anything like it...so anyways around the 8 to 10 minute mark the seem to fade away one by one... we never heard any sound at all or saw any of them again, the lights were color of the cherry of a cigarette.
