Location: Roseville, CA, USA

Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Bright Orange balls of light in the sky. Stayed in one place for a few minutes then began moving North until they disappeared.

My wife, son, daughter and I witnessed. We are just a normal working family. Saw a large bright orange light standing still towards the North. Was about 2x the size of Venus at its brightest.

First thought it was a planet although not in a normal location and obviously not the same color and I called my family out to see.

Then a second slightly larger one flew in from East to West at a slightly downward angle about the same speed as an airplane and then stopped in the same area as the first one.

They stayed still for a little and then one at a time, began moving North and disappeared. We went back inside for a minute and looked again and there were 4 more in roughly the same area. They remained still for a while and then repeated the same Northern pattern as the first 2.

There was no noise whatsoever and the lights were solid-non blinking. They looked just like images we found on the internet after we came back inside (some pictures in the UK).

Watched for another 30 minutes and none returned.

These were not any aircraft that I've ever seen.

Any explanation?
