I was driving on Rt 3 in Lowell MA to get to 495 South. While on the highway I noticed 5 spherical objects drifting in formation. I remember thinking that they looked like balls of fire because they were a bright burning orange and yellow color. However, they appeared to be perfect spheres. I pulled over on the highway and snapped a quick photo on my phone. Unfortunately my camera could not zoom and it just looks like dots in the sky. I took the next exit and pulled into a parking lot. This was at 8:02 PM judging by a phone call I made during this sighting. By this time there were only 2 in the sky. One at a time, they slowly decreased in size until they were no longer visible. It did not look like they were moving further away, but rather like they were fading. Which also made me qeustion whether or not this was something on fire, and slowly going out. That is the best way to explain how they were fading. I drove away to get back on the highway and then I look up and see that all 5 are back in the same formation that they were before. I pulled into a closed gas station to get a better look. Next door was a Mcdonalds which had several customers outside looking and filming the objects. We all stayed, staring and discussing what we were seeing until they all faded away again. We stayed a few minutes to see if they would reappear, but they did not. I have checked youtube in hopes of finding someone who has posted a video, but have not found anything on this date. Using my best judgement and logic, I cannot begin to suggest a plausible explanation of what these objects were. I have never seen anything like this before. (Nor had the other people who were standing outside the McDonalds). It may also be important to note that after the incident it became extremely foggy. It was also a fairly cloudy night, so these objects were definitely under clouds. It is hard to judge their height any reference points, but my best guess would be 100-200 ft. above ground. They were drifting very slowly together. They were sporadically aligned, not in a strict formation, but drifting at the exact same speed without changing their relative positions. I hope this dictation is clear enough.

I saw the same thing..I am with you. it was friday night, driving through mid-lowell when I noticed the lights. it immediately struck me as something ive never seen in my life. I saw 4 lights in a rough diamond shape, that looked like it could be some kind of (3D) pyramid shaped object floating in the sky. Everyone on the street was taking pictures and pointing at the sky, and I knew I wasn’t the only one that saw these OBVIOUSLY strange lights in the sky. then exactly, they seemed to burn out one by one until a single light was left, and then that too eventually disappeared. The strange, erie fogginess, the lights, the slow, steady movement of whatever it was..Im glad someone else saw all of these things and I’m not insane.
