At 1:30 AM to 7:30 AM in the eastern sky witnessed multiple spheres with orbiting red lights moving slow followed by a flash in the sky

At 1:30 AM I looked out my living room window at what I thought was a star, but, then noticed that the star was slowly moving diagonally upward to the north west, I observed this for about half an hour, when I began to observe the "star" closer I could see it was not one light but 2 possibly 3 lights, the central bigger white sphere being orbited by a much smaller white sphere and red sphere, I then called my girlfriend into the living room to look at the "star" I suggested nothing, but told her to just look at it for 5 minutes, she then told me that the "star" was moving and was being orbited by a much smaller red light, she left the room and about 5 minutes later I witnessed a huge flash in the sky like an electrical explosion moving north to south across the sky it left a brief light signature in the sky, I yelled for my girlfriend but by the time she got there the light signature had dissipated. I continued to watch the sphere for 6 hours and make the following observations, tiny specs of light appeared to move away from the sphere and towards the sphere, as it progressed slowly to the north east I observed similar spheres to the lower left and lower right of the object they were not as bright but moved in the same manner, at this point my eyes were getting tired but I could swear I was seeing faint lines of light occasionally connecting the spheres as the whole "assembly" moved slowly to the north east. I know for sure that I observed occasional flashes in the sky and barley perceptible distortions of light around the brightest sphere. After really concentrating on the object I could see that the sphere was actually surrounded by a black circle and that if it moved across a cloud it would cover it and that the sphere was moving within the circle like an iris in an eyeball. I signaled the object with my cell phone light several times each time I did so it would stop moving and hold it's position before slowly proceeding to the north east. The objects proceeded in that direction stopping periodically as if repeatedly performing some sort of function, it seemed to me it was mapping out the sky. I watched the objects move farther and farther to the north east as the sun came up, the spheres to the bottom left and bottom right of the brightest sphere eventually became too dim to see and the brightest sphere kept moving so far away by the time the sky was completely illuminated by the sun the object was no longer visible, as I said to myself "ok shows over" a jet appeared from the south west and moved extremely fast in the same north easterly direction as the object leaving a chemtrail behind.
