Light over North Star, DE

The report, as filed

My son and I heard it at the exact same time, because we looked at each other immediately. We didn't talk, I just jumped to the window ans threw up the shade. I saw nothing but a faint orang-ish glow. It shook our walls, it was very loud and very low and no sound either of us could identify hearing before. The closest description would be "rocket." I then went into the backyard, we live away from city glow and have a better nightscape. I then see 4 light formations if I was thr middle pointing up and out with both arms to either direction one would be at each pointer fingertip and another at each pinky tip. Cigar shaped, but 3 lights mainly, one large and 2 smaller on either side. No movement. like so oOo oOo oOo oOo lights seemed bright white. Strange. 5 minutes after "noise" 5-10 helios began flying around in the area.
