Beautiful 13 bright orange light formation in Erie PA 8/18/12 9:15 PM lasted 4-7 minutes

I was driving Sat. 8/18/12 on Interchange and Zimmerly Rd. when I saw what looked the the bright orange big dipper in the North sky. These formations were the only objects in the sky. A small version the dipper with 6 bright orange lights in a perfect row below the dipper like shape. There were no other stars in the sky. Just this formation. And a brighter blinking orange light in the west sky. It looked like a perfect framed picture against the dark navy sky. Almost artificial. I could not stop looking at the formation. Then it hit me. This is not normal. I started getting nauseous and afraid. I passed thru a treed area... then in cleared area could still see this. I picked up my son but when I looked they were gone. The sky was full of a million stars. I then knew this was different. I looked at the news that evening but no mention of this sighting. this lasted 4-7 minutes it was so beautiful
