Orange flashing lights over city

My husband was on a hill that sits slightly above the city, when he saw a quick light rise from the desert, south west of the city and fly east straight toward the mountains. It stopped and glowed orange.

Then instantly a second light flew across the location and stopped next to the first one, doing the same thing.

At first he thought it was an aircraft, except for the speed and hovering. The lights were floating next to each other and then a third light just appeared next to the first 2.

He left the location and picked me up (2 minutes away)We both were in our truck heading south toward the 3 orange lights.

I watched the object's location, they kept hovering with their orange lights going on and off.

As we got closer to them, the lights went out and the next time I located them, they had moved east across highway 54. The move took a few seconds and they were miles away over the desert without any sound.

We watched for another few minutes before the light disappeared completely.
