Location: Fort Collins, CO, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

Two separate orbs of warm light like fire. Arcing flight path, no sound. Maybe a thousand ft elevation? Moving slow.

At approximately 7:14pm (MT), we saw a bright orange light through the trees above our neighborhood. It was a large, bright warm light, almost like a ball of fire or flare. It moved steadily, arcing North then Northwest at potentially 500-1500ft. elevation. No sound whatsoever. It disappeared out of sight after a couple minutes of flying overhead. As it disappeared it seemed to sputter like a meteor losing steam- except much more slowly.

Several minutes later, a second object, originating from the same location as the first rose through the trees. Instead of following the same flightpath, it moved east and seemed to fall slowly out of sight, seeming to burn out as it did. In the absence of its warm light, it seemed grey, dull and ashy- very hard to see.
