And the reason why is as follows.
As me and the wife left from a neighbours house last night about 11.45 we turned the corner and straight in front of us above the horizon were five dull orange lights. There was no movement, no flashing or pulsating light, or no noise. Obviously they were not stars, and the distance of them I could only guess at. The position of them was south/east. Three of the smaller lights/objects were roughly 45 degrees from lower right going to top left.
In the middle was the largest of them, and then one more small one to the top left of that. As I tried to hurry the wife down the hill to get my camera we watched as one by one the small lights just dissapeared as though being turned off by a dimmer switch. After all the small ones went out the largest stayed lit for about 10-15 seconds, and then that to faded.
I have taken a picture of the horizon this morning and just plotted roughly how they were positioned in the sky. I have only ever seen something similar to this but with one light/object, that was about 20 years ago.
