(2) orange-red fireball orbs appeared over the Atlantic ocean from our east facing condo balcony

Walked out on our condo balcony at approximately 8:15pm on a clear, cool night facing east across the Atlantic Ocean and immediately noticed a bright orange fireball above the horizon line. The object appeared to be rotating and on fire with alternating colors of bright orange and red.

Then a second light appeared North of the first light at a slightly higher altitude with similar orange-red fireball characteristics. It's difficult to determine the altitude from the ocean but the distance between the two flaming orbs seemed to be many miles apart.

Then suddenly, the first light faded away from view.

Several minutes later, the second flaming light faded. The lights seemed to be rotating and on fire.

I saw the entire event from my binoculars. Unfortunately, I did not record the event.
