Four bright amber coloured lights spotted flying straight upward and into space over the Caribbean Sea in the Virgin Islands.

I live on the south shore of St. John in the US Virgin Islands. I walked onto my balcony at around midnight and noticed, at first, three amber coloured lights. I ran inside to grab my binoculars (I thought they were helicopters) and when i returned, I realized they were not flying in a straight line, but, rather, UP. And then another appeared, as if it came out of the Caribbean Sea.

The first three I saw stayed in formation (I couldn't tell if they were connected) and continued to fly upwards...into space! They fourth, which lagged behind, did the same and followed the same course as the others. I also watched this one as it slowly disappeared into the clear night sky. There were no sounds. No flashing lights.

I have lived in the Caribbean for 15 years and I have never seen anything like what I saw earlier tonight. These were not jet airplanes, nor were they flares. These were real UFO's and I am stoked to have FINALLY seen one in my lifetime.
