Duration: 20 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Dix Hills, NY, USA

Shape: Sphere
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

10-12 orange flickering spheres going N to S, horizon to horizon, in about 20-25 seconds.

Object appeared round or spherical. Color was a bright orande with slight flickering but not strobes. Flying NNE to SSW at what seemed to be a high altitude. Total of 10-12 objects spread out over the sky (due to trees vision to the north is approx. 15 degree elevation while southern is approx 30 degrees elevation). Time from Firestone I saw to the last one was about 20 seconds. Watching them they were faster than commercial aircraft. Traveled in a haphazard formation N to S. The sky had some high altitude clouds but otherwise it is a clear sky. What caught my eye was the bright orange color with a brighter center, could not detect any sound. The more I think about the altitude, it was high but not so high that it seemed far away--hard to describe not knowing their size. I took 3 photos but an iPhone6 camera is not what I confided a camera. Photos came out as the typical UFO picture, a spot in the sky. You want a description of the observer.

61 years old, retired manufacturing engineer. Not much to me.

Thank you for your time!
