2 sets of bright white lights in a horizontal line, no sound, no movement, approx. 5 minutes

It was a dark summer night just outside of the small town of Augusta, Ks. while I was driving home. I saw 5 very bright white lights in a straight line, which appeared to be just over a tree line, which were stationary. At first it scared me because I thought it may be a large airplane flying extremely low. Then I realized that it was not moving. I got out of my car and looked. There was no sound. Then, I saw another set of bright white lights just to the north, approx. 150 yards from the first set. Again, no movement, no sound. the lights went off, then on again, then both went out. This happened approx. 1/4 mile from my home. I had never seen anything like this in the area before, nor since. I noticed 2 or 3 small airplanes flying from the west, from Wichita. They flew to the approx. area of the siting, then turned around, and flew back towards Wichita. Lights were seen aprrox. 2 miles S.W. of Augusta, Ks.
