five orange blinking lights

I was called outside by my girlfriend. (She had previously told me of a story her and her sister had of some strange lights in the sky about a year prior). She yelled downstair's to me to come and see what she had described to me as to what her and her sister had seen. I ran outside with her only to see nothing. She said it was right over our barn. I was not skeptical of her because i do believe there is life out there, i just wished i could see for myself a U.F.O. So I stared at the sky for about 10 minutes, then all of a sudden a huge orange light followed by four more consecutive lights appeared due West of our farm. When the fifth one came on they all shut off and as soon as they all shut off they started again only maybe two ship lengths ahead. (I am calculating ship length by the length of the five lights together). At the end of the second array of lights I observed two individual lights (at what i will call the front and back of the craft). I observed these lights for about half an hour. In that time they turned color,(from red and back to a dull white to disappearing altogether. At one point it appeared to shoot out a wide angle light on it's southern pointed light). At this point now i had started to notice several airplanes. It is uncommon for me to see this kind of commercial traffic. Two in particular were a pair of blinking lights coming out of the south. One was following the other in a very close proximity. There were no green or red lights, only a single blinking white light on what i think were two fighter planes flying in formation. They were flying in a north westernly direction and soon turned due west. I don't know if one turned his lights off but the one in the rear over took the one in front and it became only one light. I watched that light fly right under the "two lights" that i thought were a craft and kept on going till it was out of sight. I also observed several satellites which is also uncommon. I am an intelligent person and am aware of! all mil itary and commercial aircraft. I do not make rash decisions and I think before I speak. I am not saying that this craft was from outerspace, what i am saying is that if this craft was human made it would be as long as roughly 15 747's and equally as wide. This was unlike anything i have ever seen. It was not a commercial airline or strange gasses in the sky, these were five lights that came on and then went off and moved without sound. The airplanes observed made sound, this did not. I know what I saw and i would laugh at the governmen if they said it was a weather balloon!!!!
