Orange/Red light in sky viewed from San Jose

11:59 looking north outside my house in the backyard i noticed a single red/orange light in the sky just to the left and underneath casiopea, it was like a star, twice the size of Venus and as bright as Venus.

It was static for about 60 seconds and then i called my wife outside, just after that a smaller object of the same luminescence seemed to drop off and move lower in the sky. (They both looked liked a military style parachute flares) My wife moved to the front of the hose and watched it move from right to left and moving downwards (further away) before it became to small to see with here eyes.
