Phoenix, AZ -- 9 orange lights in the southeast horizon for approximately 2 mins Dec. 22, 2012, 8:20pm

At approximately 8:20pm on Dec. 22, 2012 4 of us were taking turns looking through a telescope to view Jupiter and 4 of its moons. Suddenly 9 orange lights appeared in the southeast horizon and were moving in an irregular formation. Each one then slowly dimmed and went out. My son took pictures of the lights with his cell phone. We stayed outside approximately 10 mins more to see if they would return but they did not. Did anyone else see and/or report these lights? (We are visiting family here in Ahwatukee, AZ for the Christmas holiday.) He will send his video once you tell us where to email it.
