1 light turned into 2 flew almost directly over our home.

While in bed I noticed a strange light just above the other homes rooftops in the neighborhood. It then split into 2 separate lights (amber in color). My wife and I were facing south as we watched, and they were headed north. The first ball maintained a constant direction and speed, while the other flight seemed more sporadic before matching the speed of the first. We opened the window thinking they were helicopters but no sound was emited. We watched them until they were over our roof.
Next we ran downstairs to the front of the house to continue watching. We located the light immediately, still heading from south to north. The second light faded out as the original one continued on its path. Then a smaller light shot straight down and stopped just below the first light making a streak that faded quickly. In a clockwise motion the small ball rotated 90⁰ to the same level as the original and then shot back into the original ball. It continued to move north never changing in elevation or speed as it disappeared through the clouds. Camera footage was terrible when facing north due to bright house lights and streetlights. I am former military and have seen and been in military aircraft in combat and training, this is like nothing I've seen.
