2 lights, looked like Mars & smaller star too close. Larger one expanded. They disappeared instantly. 5 then appeared.

2 lights were noticed together like Mars & a star would usually appear. Larger iron-reddish one to the right. But, I immediately noticed the smaller star, which was to the left, was too close to the larger than Mars is usually seen if Mars were out. So, I found myself keeping watching. Suddenly, the larger light one to the right expanded to a larger glowing light. I couldn't believe it. I started waking up my son. He was not waking up, I frantically told him, there is a real UFO, wake up. The two lights SUDDENLY completely left the atmosphere - like they pulled out of it extremely quickly, backward. 1 lights, looked like Mars & smaller star too close. Larger one expanded. They disappeared instantly. Suddenly, a large similar beautiful glowing large light appeared through the atmosphere over to the right of where the other two had been, but higher up than the first time. Then another same sized light came through the atmosphere to that one's left. Then another, coming in at different times than the other but one right after the other until there were a total of 5 that appeared next to each other. How beautiful I thought, but what a crazy thing, 'right there.' Is this Armageddon I wondered? Why is this happening right there? I was looking at the cars in front of me wondering what are they thinking, but got really loud now trying to wake my son up - it was serious. Suddenly, they started disappearing instantly again - my son opened his eyes, he said he saw the last one leave. This was I-25 around about mile marker 140 heading towards Las Cruces NM from El Paso. I had just left El Paso and was not clear of El Paso yet Aug. 31, 2023, my birthday. I will never forget this. The objects were size-changing lights with instant disappearance and instant reappearances - BEAUTIFUL. There were absolutely no aircraft in the vicinity, no clouds. I wondered if another country had advanced technology using reverse engineering on UFOs to hurt us. What a trip. There is nothing like this experience.
