6 bright orange lights in a loose formation.

At 2155 hrs I saw 6 orange color lights in a loose formation in the South/East sky. The lights were brighter than the surrounding stars and did not look like any craft I have ever seen.

The lights appeared to be moving at slightly different speeds and after a short time 4 of the lights faded and disappeared. 2 of the lights remained and 1 stayed stationary while the other appeared to move from north to south.

After about 5 minutes the remaining lights slowly faded and disappeared.

The sky was mostly clear at the time of the sighting.

There was an aircraft in a different area of the sky and was not similar to the orange lights.
