At around 8:06 pm, my two kids my dad and i were sitting by the bonfire talking when my son pointed at the sky asking about something he was looking at. we all turned around and saw orange lights emerging from a certain point in the northern sky. there was about 50 of them. they were all extremely close to each other. not touching. they were not following a straight line, but wherever the first one went, the others followed. halfway through the sky, they all disappeared on a fixed point. my husband was in the house so we were calling for him to come out so he could see the lights. he only saw the tail end of the line of lights. as we were commenting on what we had just seen, we saw an airplane following the same trajectory that the lights had take. about two minutes later, the same thing happened, except this time it was 19 lights that appeared. there was more distance between the second group of light, and the color was white. i tried takin a video, but nothing showed up.
