About a dozen bright glowing orange objects followed exactly the same path before stopping and disappearing as if they were gone.

For 15 minutes, I witnessed bright orange objects systematically following each other across the sky over Dundee in Scotland, before stopping in the sky and disappearing.

I have witnessed about a dozen of them doing this. A friend at a different address witnessed the last two of them. They didn't behave randomly, so Chinese lanterns are almost certainly excluded. The objects followed each other (silently) at a decent distance from each other, although at some point three of them were relatively close to each other. They followed each other exactly. The first one would stop and slowly turn into nothing, and then it would be replaced by the next one that would do the same.

As a skeptic, I ran out of ideas, just like my friend.
