Shape:

He and a friend were driving near Evansville, when they sighted two bright, orange lights suddenly appear in the northern sky. Their impression was that the lights were not very far away, and perhaps at an altitude of 2,000 to 3,000 feet. They appeared to be low.

After several seconds, the objects disappeared from sight, then reappeared shortly soon after. The second object suddenly shot off. About 3-4 minutes later, they saw them in the northwest sky. Initially, it was one bright, orange, large light, which then split into approximately 5 objects. They formed a formation for about 5-10 seconds, which then simply disappeared.
