My boyfriend and I were riding our motorcycles back to the house shortly after dark we were coming down the hill about to make a left at the light and I saw an orange sphere go through the sky. And when I say through I don’t mean it was arched like it was outside our atmosphere but rather was flying in our atmosphere very close to land. There was no orange flame behind it it was a solid orange sphere nothing else came from it and it moves very quickly towards the horizon

Sitting outside & witnessed two circular shaped lights parallel to each other. One on top & one on bottom. Diagonal to each other. Lights were brighter than any star in sky. Slowly dimmed & faded away, didn't change position or move. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
