7 red orbs, gaining speed and elevation, fly from south to north directly overhead before disappearing

On the south side of the movie theater, facing south we noticed 6 red orbs low to the horizon. They appeared to be rising in elevation as well as traveling north towards our direction. As they moved towards us, they appeared to be gaining in speed as well as elevation. The red lights on the orbs went out at different times but we could still see an outline/aura of an orb against the black of the sky that flew directly overhead before disappearing completely. The orbs that flew directly overhead were no more than 20 to 30 feet above us. After the first 6 orbs disappeared, a 7th orb appeared in a different spot than the first 6. The same type of movement was observed in the 7th orb but we were not able to observe long enough to see it disappear. The orbs were completely silent and had no visible means of propulsion. The first 6 started miles away from us and were over our head in roughly 60 seconds.
