More than 7 Red Flaring Orbs in East Indianapolis Sky on 4th of July

Approximately 2200 hours, a group of us on the deck were watching fireworks. We noticed 3 red fireballs crossing the sky evenly paced. They got to a certain pointin the sky and then vanished. At first we believed it to be cloud cover being the reason they vanished but they never reappeared considering their brightness.

Ten minutes after first sighting. We saw the same shape again coming from the south but a little farther east. This time one appeared then followed by another then followed by another. Each one was evenly paced. After going a distance the first object disappeared, then another came into view. Each object got to the same point and then disappeared and again another appeared. This time there was five to six objects.

I work for the military and checked with the local helicopter BDE. It was confirmed that there were no flights that day.
