Strange red-orange spherical objects travelling in single file formation in the night sky.
I am a 39 year old female with a bachelor’s degree in nursing and one in human biology and on this approximate date of 09/15/2013 I was picking up two clients (male ASU students around the age of 21 years old) at their apartment complex. As I was waiting outside for them to come out, I noticed several red-orange spherical lights in the sky to the south (they appeared to be in the city of Chandler, just south of Tempe). They were traveling in sort of an arc, heading first west and then toward the north and finally north-east, at which point they just disappeared. They moved in a single file line in almost perfect formation. There was a helicopter traveling along with them. I watched this for about 3 to 5 minutes before my clients came out. When the first one came out I pointed it out and we just watched them come up on the horizon, travel in the arc motion and then disappear. By this time we could no longer see the helicopter. The second client came out after about two minutes and we continued to watch for about 2 minutes as the last lights came and disappeared. I took three pictures, which are very poor quality, but photographic evidence nevertheless. We then departed the apartment complex and continued to talk about our experience for about 10 minutes until we arrived at our destination. We thought that maybe they were Chinese lanterns and that maybe there was a wedding or some type of festival or something. But the question of why there would be a helicopter travelling with them kept coming up and didn't make sense to any of us.
About a month later, I picked up the same clients and we discussed whether any of us had researched the incident but none of us had. We were still baffled. On 11/28/13, I turned on Coast to Coast am on 550 AM out of Phoenix. A s soon as I turned it on they were talking about similar incidents throughout the county and identical descriptions. Listeners were encouraged to report their incidents on the ufocenter.com website, so I thought I should. The incident was just too strange to ignore.
