6-9 bright circular orange balls in triangle formation shoot across the sky. only lasted about 5 seconds

3 of my friends and I were playing basketball outside and we were all about 12 years old when we saw a probably 9 flaming balls that looked like comets in a trianle for like how gooses fly shoot across the sky, silent and at shooting star speed. At the time i didnt know what to think i thought it could of been comets or something, but comets dont fly in a triangle. The weirdest part is that they had to have been somewhere between the thermomshere and the mesosphere parts of our atmosphere. I have never witnessed anything like this before.
