last night on the 17th of december 2010 i seen an orange ball of light around the Crookston area of Glasgow did anyone see this, ive also noticed some strange lights in the sky that are a lot diffrent from the orange balls with a lot of diffrent activity one sighting included two white lights coming from quite a far distance apart one from the left one from the right when they met in the middle they seemed to disapear this was in fact not the last time i would see this activity i used to watch and see the same thing happen almost every other week. people dont seem to notice these lights i think a lot of people just think they are normal aircraft and dont actually watch them but there is some weird lights in the sky over Glasgow. has anyone else noticed this?

The most recent report of the triangular craft was by Munesh Mistry, who spotted the object in the the skies above his home in Tipton, West Midlands at around 10.15pm on Sunday.

On November 4th, a similar UFO was seen hovering over nearby Sutton Coldfield.

In February last year a UFO sighting was recorded by Sean Gibbs-Percival over the skies of Oldbury, with another in April when two witnesses saw a flying saucer-shaped object described as two bright orange UFOs.

This report was left as a comment on a previous Whales In Space post.

More orange balls seen over Walton area in Peterborough last evening 22/08/10. Lighting up the sky and moving off towards the east at very high speed. Returned at least four times, only to shoot off again. Several family members witnessed this. Certainly not street lamp reflections, lazers, helicopters, chinese laterns, hot air balloon burners, aircraft lights, fuel dumping, afterburners etc. These were like mini suns and quick. Orange balls have been reported around this area for many many years, be interested to hear if anybody has a plausible explanation. The marsh gas & weather balloon apologists need not reply !

Churchill Wanted UFO Cover Up To Avoid 'Mass Panic'

An unnamed British scientist, who’s grandfather was one of Sir Winston Churchill’s bodyguards, has requested more information concerning the claims that Churchill asked for a cover up of UFO activity in fear that “mass panic” would result from the information becoming public, as recounted in declassified Ministry of Defence UFO files made available online by the National Archives.

The document describes how his grandfather, who served with the Royal Air Force (RAF) in the war, was present when Churchill and U.S. General Dwight Eisenhower discussed how to deal with a UFO encounter that took place near the English coastline at the end of World War Two.

This story was covered on both sides of the pond, by both FoxNews and MailOnline, as well as many other news sources.

On several occasions, the British The National Archives have released large numbers of previously classified documents detailing UFO activity by the British Government and Military.

The lights were said to not behave like fireworks or Chinese lanterns. They were described as ‘reddish glowing lights’ that came and went one at a time.

We reported a May sighting in the same area and www.highland-news.co.uk reports additional sightings from early June and another the same weekend as the Bird report.

500 miles to the south, not far from London in Reading, UK, www.beamsinvestigations.org.uk is reporting a sighting on June 16th at 10:30 pm of a mysterious glowing UFO moving north. The object is described as ‘the shape that of a torpedo’.

Several images were captured.

In March of this year, a local man reported he had seen UFOs four times over Nairn and Inverness. Then in May, a RAF airman named Karl King reported a similar sighting over Inverness from his home in nearby Moray.

Then on May 20th, as reported by www.highland-news.co.uk, pilot Bill Renny saw an unexplained orange fireball in the sky while out walking his dog along the River Ness at the end of Anderson Street about 11.10pm.

“I was born in Renfrew, virtually at the end of the main runway at Glasgow Airport, and my first job was with Loganair which i got because I was always hanging around the airport planespotting

My uncle was a pilot and took me up on a flight was when I was very young and I flew solo before I was 19.

What I saw that evening I cannot reconcile with anything I have seen before. I’m not talking about green men or anything like that. It was simply something I cannot explain.

This was not a Chinese lantern. It flew at a steady height and course. There was no wind and the object flew much, much faster than a lantern. It was silent. There were clouds at about 5,000ft and this object was below the clouds. It was only about 1,000ft above my head and flew right over the top of the Kessock Bridge.

Apart from the lack of sound, there were no navigation lights, either red or green, nor any anti-collision strobe lights, white tail lights or landing lights. It was not night sun spotlights as seen on helicopters.”

Inverness Airport said the airport had been closed at that time and they are not aware of any air activity in the area.

“For a short while it looked more like a Star Wars battle,” he said of the purported incident at a Welsh farm near Radnor Forest.

“The technology involved in these attacks is frightening. These lights and spheres are clearly not ours. They are built by technology and intelligence that’s not from here,” Hoyle said.

Hoyle is part of the Animal Pathology Field Unit, a non-profit established in 2001 that is committed to carrying out serious research into the animal mutilation mystery.

More UFO sightings in Swansea Bay area

This after other sightings in mid February.

I’m still not buying the Orange Balls of Light Chinese Lantern Theory (ORBLCLT) to explain all these sightings.

My giant flying bioluminescent dinosaurs theory has yet to be embraced by the UFO community, but I’ll keep throwing it out there.

From a July 2009 Whales In Space post.

A recent episode of History Channel’s Monster Quest explored reports of pterodactyl-like creatures that have been seen in the skies of Papua New Guinea. Called a ropen or flying demon, it is said to be bioluminescent and blurry video and photos presented by Monster Quest and monster hunters Paul Nation and Garth Guessman look a lot like the video and photos from the UK and July 4th ORBL sightings.

The natives of Umboi Island of Papua New Guinea have stories of unexplained lights in the skies and tales of giant flying dinosaur like creatures that go back generations. More recent sightings, such as the Duane Hodgkinson “pterodactyl” sighting in 1944 and 1994 Gideon Koro, Wesley Koro, and Mesa Agustin sighting, reporting a huge 20 foot plus wing span on a pteranodon or pterodactyl like creature, a crested head, and in night time sightings a glow or bioluminescent quality.

Chris Williams, organiser of Weird Events said

“In February we welcome Trystan Swale to Swindon. He has spoken all over the country and we are very pleased that he is talking at our February event. Trystan will be talking on the subject of “Disinformation in Ufology – The Saucer Saboteurs”.

“The talk covers the diluted truths, outright lies and red herrings that abound in the investigation and research field of UFOs.”

“In the late 1990s some 80% of the American population believed successive administrations were withholding information related to the existence of alien visitors to their airspace. As pressure mounts for governments to disclose their knowledge of UFOs, fingers remain pointed at those accused of attempting to derail the efforts of committed UFO researchers. Who are the shady characters attempting to mislead those ufologists who may have strayed too close to the truth?”

“Trystan Swale is a folklore hobbyist and between 2004 and 2009 was an active member of two paranormal investigation teams in southern England. He has investigated a range of phenomena including ghosts, unidentified flying objects and out of place animals. When not busy piecing together and co-hosting Righteous Indignation podcast, Trystan is a teacher by profession”

Chris also said “The talks are aimed at anyone who wants to find out more about the subject matter and with our varied lectures through 2010, there is something for everyone”

The talks are held in “The Restaurant” Kings Hotel, Wood Street, Swindon. The doors open at 7:15pm and each talk finishes around 9:30pm. Entry is only £6.

www.thesun.co.uk announces in recent article

AMAZING footage of a UFO has been taken in Ireland – as The Sun re-launches the nation’s X-Files.

A triangular formation of lights was filmed flying at night at “incredible speed”.

Experts reckon the sighting near the River Liffey in Dublin could be a secret aircraft – or spacecraft.

The UFOs resemblance to the ship in the 1979 video game Asteroids ship is… impressive. It even darts around like the in the old school vector graphics video game.

The video was posted on dede95064′s Youtube Channel and matches exactly the one The Sun claims is from Dublin.

Is someone pulling a fast one on the Sun?
