two craft objects seen, one horizontal in shape, the other triangular. And some flashing red orb shaped lights in the background

Ok, so the first sighting was a very large aircraft which headed towards me from the far distance which I at first thought was an unusually large star, but as it appraoched, I saw that it had lights, and then at the same time there appeared to be unusual background activity also going on in the sky. I saw flashing red orb like lights that seemed to almost come together and then moved quickly away from eachother, meanwhile, in between there appeared to be a falling star! Now, (and I know this sounds too outrageous), but while the large craft was meanwhile approaching overhead, and it seemed to be possibly a half a mile in width It had at the front of it a horizontal line of yellow lights, and at each end, two red lights. It flew overhead as I watched from my balcony, and was then out of view. I kept on trying to tell myself that it must have been an airplane, but I didn't know what the other orb lights were all about in the distance. And if that were not enough!!I then heard what sounded like another approaching plane or craft overhead, flying in the opposite direction heading towards the west valley, which was a huge, triangular shaped craft ( as I saw that it was indeed a solidly shaped triangular craft ) with maybe three lights. But as it was gliding over the valley away from me, it appeared to have onlt two white flashing lights, that then dimmed one the lights as the other light kept flashing on and off. I watched this craft until I could no longer see it gliding away in the distance. Now I have NEVER seen anything in the sky unusual except maybe a falling star only once in my lifetime. I have no idea what these were, but i reported the sighting to the ArizonaRepublic newsroom.
