Duration: 1.5-2 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Davis, CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

Saw two stationary orange lights in the sky, high in the sky, and nearby each other.

My friend and I were driving on the freeway towards Sacramento, taking the bend off from hwy 113, when I looked over towards the right. In the sky I noticed 2 lights, that appeared to be stationary, and nearby each other. They must have been flying at airplane altitute or higher, but were both fairly close to each other to be deemed as airplanes. Also, there were no white or red lights on them, only a solid orange looking light.

By this time I was interested, so I kept looking, and asked my friend whom was driving if he was seeing this. He looked over and we began talking about what it could be. The lights seemed very stationary in the air, as we were driving, probobly at about 60-65 miles per hour. It was all very odd. I know the place that they were hovering over was farm land, because I've driven by there many times during the day time.

As we kept driving I was watching, and I could see what seemed like light on the ground directly underneath where the lights in the sky. The light almost looked like it was orange light that was reflecting in a body of water on the ground, but I know there is no water there.

When we got off the freeway on the Richards exit to go to a friends place, I told him to park at Safeway so we could take a look at the lights first. When we got out of the car, we saw a light flying by, but it was clearly an airplane. About 2 minutes later we saw another airplane flying by. We are unsure that these are the same lights, but we were positive that the first lights we saw were not moving, and were very close to each other, and were completely orange.
