NUFORC Sighting 105798

Occurred: 2014-01-01 00:25 Local
Reported: 2013-12-31 22:13 Pacific
Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Spring Hill, FL, USA

Shape: Circle

Four orange, circular objects rising in the Eastern sky and disappearing vertically out of the atmosphere.

We saw an orange light rise out of the Eastern sky and moved slowly, straight up into the atmosphere and disappear. Less than a minute later, another one followed the same path, but a couple of degrees to the south. As the second one was rising, a third, very close to the second, followed the same path. Uncannily, all three had the same size, shape, color, and path. The second and the third were available for viewing at the same time for the majority of viewable time. After the third exited the atmosphere, a fourth started to rise. This one veered in a slightly southern facing arch, then redirected vertically & then disappeared. . . out of the atmosphere- just like the 3 previous.

Yes, it is New Year's Eve. Yes, we are not all that far from Cape Canaveral. These were not fireworks, airplanes, or anything we are able to explain. Did anyone else see this occur?
