1 Main Hovering Bright ORB/Sphere, Emiting Light as bright as the sun, 3 others soon apear in sequence.

I'm a network admin/wireless technician for a small company in the bay area. We have access points up on monument peak in Milpitas CA. In the San Francisco Bay Area. I was up on one of our towers on monument peak, swapping out an access point, when the other technician with me. Looked out to the left where our office was in San Jose. And yelled at me to look. When I looked out, I saw a gray, sphere object omitting light from it.

I watched it for several seconds. Just wondering what it was. And then I could see the omitting light, began to intensify. till it got to a point where it was close to being as bright as the sun. Which was over to my right, high up in the sky. Far away from this object. One the object got to this point it sustained that level of brightness, and appeared to come towards the Hill we where on. But then Stopped, omitting such a bright light and resumed its greyish/soft omitting light. Right after that, I kinda sweep the whole bay, from where I was, and now saw 3 identical small objects show up in sequence, and at parallel height. (could draw a straight line through all 4)

At that point, I was panicking, and wanted to get off the 25ft tower I was on, and rush to my truck, just down the hill to grab my camera. (Truck was about 500 ft away from the antenas) So I did and returned with my camera. The first main object was gone, and the other 3 behind it where leaving in sequence as well. I was able to snap off pictures of the 4th orb/sphere/object, which was closer to San Francisco, out over the south Bay.

I've been up there 30-40 times this year, I have never seen any lights up there that could compare, ive never seen any reflections that could compare or have ever been 1/10th as bright as these in clear sunny day light conditions. I just cant explain what these where.
