Date: July 2005
Time: 1:15 a.m.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Orange and round.
Weather Conditions: Clear sky no wind.
Description: I read a story in local paper Morecambe Visitor dated sighting 27/12/08 which is pretty similar to what we saw. I know its quite a while ago but having someone to tell who understands and doesn't laugh is good! I was with a friend marshalling on Morecambe Car Club's night rally on Trough of Bowland which is known as Haylots. It was approx 1-15am it was very clear we had plenty of time waiting for cars to come. Three lights appeared to come from a westerly direction round and orange in colour at the time it was a shock. They stayed in the same position for approx 15mins then moved at high speed same direction they came from hight and speed I wish I knew. All I can say is I hope we are not alone! and glad I can tell someone.

Shape of objects: Bright light, 2nd cigar shaped object.
Weather conditions: Clear.
Description: I first noticed a very white bright light facing south in between the hills highly visible very low, at the same time traveling south east an object caught my attention it was brown black cigar shaped, hard at first to see until my eyes focused on it on looking away at the first noticed bright light I looked back to the object south east and spotted it again it was moving at height just above the horizon. I am an amateur astronomer and see my self
as having a trained eye I own a binoculars a reflector and camera, I also had a closer sighting at the time of the Bantry Bay sightings and a sighting with my brother, I have seen very bright lights traveling at the zenith but which have turned out to be light reflecting of an aeroplane,in talking to a farm woman she told me of a friend of hers who witnessed quite often lights in the vicinity of Bantry.
TV/Radio: The time of the Bantry bay UFO radio reporting's I observed my first in Clonakilty walking home about 1am, I spotted a red light on my left about a half mile away which was the height of about a hundred feet up there was no sound at all this shocked me as I thought it was a helicopter, I carried on walking and watching the light disappeared behind the hills but to my amazement appeared again and came towards me this scared me, there are famous standing stones called the Templebryan Standing Stones the light stopped over or around the stone flashed rapidly and then moved up and down so fast it looked like the light became one, it moved of to the right of me and the away from me, very scary. Please let me know if this is to be seen by any other person. Thank you.

Cwmbran, Torfaen, South Wales A Round Orange Ball
Date: December 26, 2008
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round orange ball.
Weather Conditions: Clear.
Description: Three of us were out in the garden, one friend said wait a minute what is that, we other two had our backs to the object overhead, when we looked up it was a large round bright orange light, about the height of an helicopter but without the noise travelling from the south west it came over the top of us and then disappeared from view because of a tree in the garden. I ran to the side of the tree but the object had just disappeared even though I had a long view into the distant sky (we were up on a hill). It was travelling quite fast like the speed of a normal plane or helicopter.
TV/Radio: Don't know, as I do not buy newspapers.

UFOINFO Note: As with other similar reports I asked the witness to have a look at the UFO Balloons website to see if this is what might have been seen and received the following reply:
Yes I did look at the ufoballoons sight before I emailed you, as a matter of fact when I discussed what I saw with my husband (who did not see it) I did say it was for all the world like a hot air balloon without the noise. The item I saw was circular and very orange, so maybe it was one of these balloons, but definately not oblong as seen in the photographs on the balloon site.

Northwich, Cheshire, England UK Glowing Orange/Red Balls
Date: December 27, 2008
Time: Between 8:50 and 9:05 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 5 (so far)
Number of objects: 8
Shape of objects: Glowing orange/red balls to start, then when they turned to "leave" triangular in shape.
Weather Conditions: Completely clear sky, about minus one. Little/no wind.
Description: Glanced out of the window to see eight balls of light coming towards the house. Shouted partner to get camera (4 photo's taken) and come have a look. Three of the balls moved off, five remained in position as we took pictures. I went downstairs to watch with a neighbour, then came back indoors as the view from upstairs was less cluttered and a lot warmer. They moved silently and I am almost 100% positive they were not lanterns.
I posted on the local newspaper website forum and have found that others had indeed seen the same thing. Interesting side note: we live near the flightpath for landings to Manchester international airport (we are used to all manner of aviation), and whilst these were in the sky - no landings took place - when they had gone, four planes came overhead to land in quick succession within the space of 5 minutes. Most unusual.
TV/Radio: My local newspapers forum posting is available on: http://forum. northwichguardia n.co.uk/viewtopi c.php?t=1574&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

UFOINFO Note: As with other similar reports I asked the witness to have a look at the UFO Balloons website to see if this is what might have been seen and received the following reply:
Hi John
I had a look and they were certainly not lanterns.... ... the close up pictures we have of them show anything but, and there is certainly no way they were such things. There have been two further reports of the same lights on the local newspaper forum I mentioned - so they were seen over an 8 mile area from different vantage points by at least ten or more people.

Kawau Island, New Zealand UFO Looked Like A Jelly Fish
Date: December 31, 2008
Time: 10:15 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.
Weather Conditions: Low cloud cover (approx 1500ft)
Description: UFO was spotted heading from west to east parallel to Bon Accord harbour below the cloud. It had a bright orange light in the centre with an orange glow around it. My husband said it looked a bit like a jelly fish. It was moving at a reasonable pace but then slowed right down almost coming to a stop. It then sped up again and disappeared to the east. Weird thing was that despite the cloud cover it did not seem to disappear thru the cloud but merely faded as if by distance in a very short time. Last thing seen was a small bright light that could have been a star.

Dunbar, East Lothian, Scotland Red Light
Date: January 1, 2009
Time: 00:45
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Not obvious.
Weather Conditions: Total cloud.
Description: Static red light seen south by south-west.
After about two minutes, it was enveloped by cloud. Static, therefore not a flare. Also, I've checked star constellations in that vicinity to see if a very bright 'white' star would be subject to doppler effect through cloud, and appear red. None found: closest was Aldeberan, but too high. Nothing in Orion that far West at that time.
PS no alcohol taken! suffering from a cold and only drinking ginger and lemon tea!
TV/Radio: Not reported. Told visiting friends only.

Tyldseley, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, England Orange Ball Of Light
Date: January 1, 2009
Time: Approx: 6:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.
Weather Conditions: Perfect clear sky.
Description: I thought I was seeing things on New Years day in Tyldseley, Gr Manchester. It was about 6.00pm and I went out in to the garden for a cigarette and was dazing at the sky (it was a clear sky), I could see all the stars then this orange ball. I first thought it might be a plane on fire but it was not falling out of the sky. There was no noise and no smoke trails in the sky that planes make. I'm so glad I read some of these comments, because I thought I was seeing things.

UFOINFO Note: As with other similar reports I asked the witness to have a look at the UFO Balloons website to see if this is what might have been seen and received the following reply:
It was definitely not a balloon. There was no wind at all on new years day and it was travelling in the sky (approx the same speed as you would see a plane fly). I saw it for about 4-5 mins then it disappeared but there was no clouds either?

South Cerney, Gloucestershire, England A Bright Orange Circular Object
Date: January 2, 2009
Time: 8:20 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Circular.
Weather Conditions: Clear skies, cold.
Description: While smoking on the patio at a friend's house, I saw a bright orange circular object move across the sky in a southerly direction. It was low flying and completely silent. At its closest point, it appeared to have a small corona which regularly pulsed. This certainly was no "balloon" type object as its speed was constant and it moved in a direct line. Anyone have any ideas?

Shape of objects: Circle.
Weather Conditions: Clear.
Description: Me and my niece's boyfriend were stood at the front of the house, Two orange circles seemed to 'take' off 1 under another in a vertical formation they went up probably a couple of hundred feet. Then they hovered for a while & did a sort of criss/cross before moving off & fading.
I've never seen anything like it at all I shouted my wife & she came out to join us & she can't explain what it was. But it kept you transfixed when you'd started watching you couldn't take your eye's off it.

UFOINFO Note: As with other similar reports I asked the witness to have a look at the UFO Balloons website to see if this is what might have been seen and received the following reply:
Hello John
This was not what we seen on Sunday it is very difficult to explain what it was, they were orange but it was 2 of them & they appeared to move up in like a formation then perform what can only be described as an air dance, or criss cross dance before stopping & then both heading off in the same direction & at the same pace.
I was a little sceptical about posting this to yourselves as I have never rally been a great believer in such things but like I said this was a sight I will never forget. It was rather spectacular actually.

Letterkenny, Co. Donegal, Rep. Of Ireland Two Brightly Colored Orange Lights
Date: January 6, 2009
Time: 11:00 p.m. - 11:30 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round Lights with Dark Profile.
Weather Conditions: Clear Frosty night, with minimal patchy cloud.
Description: I was placing rubbish out in the bin at the back of my house,when I was done I stopped to smoke a cigarette. It was a lovely clear night and I looked up to the stars, my attention was caught by two brightly coloured orange lights travelling across the sky in the north. They were equal distances apart but slightly off line with each other, and seemed to maintain the same speed. The two lights then passed through a light patch of cloud but only one came out the other side.
The light of the object that came out of the cloud seemed to disappear, but I could still make out an object travelling through the night sky. I watched for sometime until it faded out of sight, and for the second light or object to reappear before returning indoors. I have often watched the night sky on a clear night, and have been able to pick out plains and satellites passing over, but what I saw this night was like nothing I had ever seen before.
Reports have been made about similar lights been spotted in the Donegal area on Christmas eve, it was not until I saw the story in one of the local newspapers that I thought my sighting would carry any weight. It was in the newspaper article where I discovered the details of this website.
My wife thought I was nuts, but if other people saw something similar to what I saw, we cant all be wrong.

East Bernstadt, Kentucky Bright Orange Orb Hovering In The Sky
Date: January 12, 2009
Time: 9:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: East Bernstadt, Kentucky.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Orb.
Full Description of event/sighting: I live in a small town in south central Kentucky that is located about 5 miles north of London. I do not drink or use any kind of drugs and I am not on any medication. I am 26 years of age and have perfect eye sight and have no mental problems. I was doing some work online when my father asked me to look at something in the night sky. I thought it may be a plane or helicopter, but I looked anyway. What I saw in no way resembled anything I had seen before. My father who is 78 years old and my mother who is 63 years old both say they have never seen anything like it. I have seen this object on three separate nights. The first night was Jan.12, 2009 at around 9:00pm. and like I said, my father asked me to look so I did and I was in shock because in the distance. I would say maybe a mile away there was a bright orange orb hovering in the sky.
I got my digital camera and went out onto the front porch and began filming this object. While zoomed in and filming this object I could see that it was changing colors as well as it's shape very rapidly. The colors changed from orange to red to green to white and back to orange. I filmed the object for several minutes until it slowly disappeared. My second sighting was at the same residence at around 8:30pm. on the night of January 15, 2009. The object this time was much closer and appeared to be hovering just above a local power supply sub station. I did the same as the first sighting, I went outside and filmed the object with the same results color change and shape change. I along with my parents watched as this object hovered silently for about two hours in that spot before slowly moving northwest and disappearing once again. My best sighting was on January 16, 2009 at around 9:00pm. I was at a friend's house in London and we were talking about what I seen, so I went outside to see if maybe it would be there again and sure enough it was. Same object, same color, same size and all.
My friend who is a Sgt. in the U.S. Army and a combat veteran filmed the object on his camera with same results that I had gotten. Along with myself, my parents and my friend who have seen this object there is my friend's wife, her sister, their cousin, my friends uncle and aunt and everyone says they have never seen anything like it before. I am not trying to get any kind of wealth or personal gain from this, I have in no way fabricated this sighting, and this is in no way any kind of hoax by me or anyone that I know. I simply would like an honest scientific answer on what I have been seeing.
Thank you to the witness for their sighting report.

Location of Sighting: Murrieta.
Number of witnesses: 6
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle, round.
Full Description of event/sighting: My husband and sister-in-law have seen it previously. When my sister-in-law left my house around 7:00pm she called us on her cell phone and said it was in the sky again. We went outside with the neighbors and there it was. What is it ?
Additional Information:
Hi, we all looked through binoculars last night and interestingly enough, it changed it's shape, distance, and brightness while we looked at it. Sometimes it looked like triangle shape, bright white light, then it looked like 4-5 separate pieces moving and sort of dancing, or moving very quickly. At other times, it looked like a big circle was around it with a bright little circle in the middle. My neighbor said at one time it looked like a boomerang shape moving and flickering. My husband said it looked like an octopus shape with flicks of light coming out of it. Finally, it disappeared out of nowhere! I looked at some pictures on line of people who are witnessing the same thing and we did see at one time the same pizza box shape flat rectangular lights moving at a very fast speed. My husband and sister-in-law said they saw it a couple months ago. Sometimes they have seen it in different locations in the sky. Thank you for your time.
