Sparkling lights in a cigar shape gilding throught the night sky

A few nights ago, while driving, I saw a cigar shaped sparkling object gliding through the sky from left to right, about 200 to 300 feet above me. I had my eyes on it for about 30 seconds. The weirdest thing was that there was no visible object attached to these sparkling dots or lights. I pulled over to quickly capture a video, but my car is extremely dark due to tinted windows and the area itself is filled with hills and trees and lost sight of it at that point.
I continued driving and found myself in disbelief as I sat at a red light, questioning what I had just witnessed. About 10 seconds after making a right turn, I spotted the object again half a mile ahead of me, only to see it disappear over the tree line.
The best way to describe what I saw is try imaging 3 or 4 large birthday sparkling candles in a row flying across the sky. It makes no sense.
