Mysterious Orange Lights Appearing In Our Night Skies

UK UFO Sightings ~ http://www.uk-ufo.co.uk/..

Location of Sighting: Strontian, Highland, Scotland
Date of Sighting: 2nd. Nov 09  ~  Time: 17.50
Witness Name: John

I was driving over a high and remote mountain road towards the village of Strontian with several other people. The sky was fairly clear when ahead of us to the south, at probably several thousand feet a brilliant orange light appeared. It seemed to be fairly motionless but then seemed to move slowly eastwards, going in and out of the cloud before just vanishing.

I managed to view it through a pair of high quality 10x binoculars and it just appeared as a very bright, shimmering orange ball, much brighter than any star or planet. There were no other flashing or navigation lights I am certain.

I am familiar with sky lanterns, I have released them myself, and am very certain this was not one. The area it was over is extremely remote, with virtually no habitation, also we would have clearly seen it rise from where we were at over 1000ft. It was also far too bright at the range it was. We were at well over 1000ft and it was high compared to us so probably well over 3000 ft. I know for a fact lanterns fade to a dim point of light even at a fairly short distance.

I do have a keen interest in UFOs and remain open minded. I am very familiar with the night sky, satellites, meteors etc. and this is the second time I have now seen one of these orange lights this year. Both times they remain unexplained.

I admit I was very sceptical, particularly with the confusion of lanterns, but since seeing these myself I really do have no explanation. Without any doubt there are mysterious orange lights appearing regularly in our night skies!

WGFT News Ed: There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of reports of unusual orange lights (sometimes the shape of a craft is also observed) being seen right across the United Kingdom throughout 2009. Several million people must have seen these bright, fire-like orange 'lights'... even if they did not realise they were observing something unusual. Many people have quite clearly indicated what they were seeing were NOT Chinese Lanterns.
