Larger than anything I have seen in the sky fly past. No noise and going extremely fast across the sky and disappeared in the horizon. It had no tail which would indicate something burning up.

West Grove, PA

Observed 2 orange objects in the sky over my car while driving home from work. After making a turn onto another road, I observed 2 more orange objects for a total of 4 objects.I pulled off the road to watch the objects which seemed to be traveling in pairs, but traveling the same route. The first 2 objects I saw were closer and appeared to be translucent. Continued watching until objects were no longer visible. I did get a picture of 2 of the objects on my cell phone..
