Witness Testimony

"4 Orange/red balls of light flying through the skyJust after midnight we were outside by the fire ready to come inside to watch a movie just after celebrating the new year. As we were picking up, we saw a bright orange/red ball that we thought was a New Years firework, but it didn't die out. They came in a cluster of 2. We watched all 4 "balls" go across the sky..still waiting to see them die out, but they disappeared behind the trees. There was no sound and they went at a steady pace. The most eerie thing we've ever seen. We all looked at each other and said.."we are all seeing this..right?" I took pics with my cell phone, but they just looked like stars."
