orange glowing object over Carson,CA

Awoke from sleep approximately midnight, noted the time, closed my eyes and awoke an hour later at 1 AM.

Went outside in my back yard and 15 seconds later I saw an orange glowing ball shaped light appear due east over Carson,CA. It arose in the night sky, headed south toward the direction of my house. I got my glasses and binoculars from inside my house to get a better look. Aside from a closer view, I could not observe any more detail. It was a glowing and disfused orange light in my binoculars.

At one point it flashed/pulsed a white light for a few seconds. It stayed stationary for a while and then dripped small parts of orange material, dimmed and disapeared. Having had multiple sightings, I believe the mathamatical odds that the random times I observe the night sky and see these objects, is well beyond the realm of chance.

For it to be flares, they would have to be constantly launched to coincide with my viewings.
