3 White Orbs and bands of 8 Red Lights flash on and off over Queen Creek, AZ

Three bright orbs in a line were observed in an area of the sky that is normally a part of the Mesa Gateway Airport southern landing approach. The 3 orbs initially appeared to be in a line that was slightly angled as if attached to a gigantic triangle/wedge suspended in the sky. Within seconds, the lights blinked off, one by one from the left to the right, in the same fashion as the "Phoenix Lights" over South Mtn. These were not aircraft lights. There was no sound and the sky was cloudless.These lights were very large comparatively and only white, with the estimated distance away of 3/4 mile and very, very low. 5 minutes later an arc of approximately 8 red(only)lights displayed "on" from left to right, held for a second and went off altogether. The position in the sky was farther away and to the southeast approx 5-7 miles. This action was observed using binoculars and re-occurred 3 more times in different areas of the southeastern sky, too far apart to be a! prank.

These were not flares or fireworks or any known craft.The distance of the last red display was approx. 20 miles away, traveling southeast over Pinal County, AZ.
