Orange UFO exploded by something

I was delivering a pizza, heading northeast towards the Durham area. On St. Mary's road for anyone who knows Orange County.

Being bored, I was watching what seemed to me to be a plane, though it looked weird. It was large, and perfectly still and had no strobe. It had a rectangular red light, a circular white light in the center, and then a rectangular blue light. It was clearly very, very far away and higher up than the second craft.

Suddenly, as I was watching, a small orange sphere that appeared to be on fire moved very quickly above the tree line and into my field of vision. The circular, central white light on the first craft flashed, or flickered (very clearly, though), and the orange sphere exploded.

This all happened very quickly and I was driving the entire time. I observed the first craft - what I think was a plane of some sort - until I had to turn.
