Many More Christmas UFO Sightings Over
the UK - 1
Location of Sighting: Burgess Hill,
West Sussex, England
Date of Sighting: 14th December 2009 ~ Time: 16:42pm
Witness Name: A. Mainwaring
I'm not joking, seriously, I've had all
the jokes…. Santa's reindeer and all that. I'm not mad!!!! I was
outside my house with my friend Duffy and my 12 year old son,
also a couple of neighbours were outside. This bright light was
hovering over the tile quarry next to my house, then the light -
like a bright star - moved up about 5 meters. The bright
light went out and these little coloured lights were on it’s
bottom rotating in a circular motion. it moved really slowly
until it was directly above us and was sort of ball shaped. It
was NOT a helicopter and was totally silent. Then it shot off at
high speed to the west. The speed was phenomenal, if it had been
an aeroplane or helicopter of sorts we would have been able to
see it for quite a while into the distance for sometime, but
this was literally out of sight within about 4 seconds. I'm
saying to Duffy 'Please tell me you're seeing this'. Then the
lights and power literally drained from half the town!!! Half of
the power grid of the town went down and we were in total
darkness. My friends & family think I've gone insane, but I'm
seriously seriously telling the truth. I don't believe in that
sort of thing. It was definitely an unidentified object because
we were all just frozen on the spot just staring at it! I wanted
to grab my camera or phone from the house to film it but we were
just literally numb staring at it!!

Location of Sighting: Friston, Suffolk, England
Date of Sighting: 13th December 2009 ~ Time: 22:20
Witness Name: Kev & Amy
Whilst walking my dog with my girlfriend,
she pointed out a light in the sky to our 2 o'clock position,
this was approximately south west. Initially I dismissed the
observation as a Helicopter, probably operating out of RAF
Woodbridge. However, after watching for a couple of minutes the
light was not accompanied by navigation beacons and was
certainly not moving in a manner expected of helicopters. The
object descended very quickly and blinked out. This entire
episode lasted about 3 minutes. The object re-appeared rising
from behind a tree, whilst zig-zagging from left to right. It
stopped then ascended rapidly, within half a second, I would
estimate about 1500 – 2000 feet. Again it stopped and then began
to move left to right again. We had watched this time for about
3-5 minutes. Then it again blinked out. I have been an aviation
enthusiast for about 25 years, my father was in the USAF
operating from Bentwaters. There was no way this vehicle was
operating under conventional flight models or even our laws of
physics! I would estimate the object to have been about 2-5
miles away, possibly over Snape or Tunstall. We have both been
left gobsmacked and would hope to see this object again as it is
on my regular route for walking my dog. I will keep you posted
as to any further developments. If anyone else saw this object,
please comment so we exchange details. Many thanks.

Location of Sighting: Redditch, Worcestershire, England
Date of Sighting: 11th December 2009 ~ Time: 23.15
Witness Name: Bob Sayers
From my location just North of the town
centre in Redditch, I saw a single green light crossing the sky
from East to West, at an angle of elevation of about 30-40
degrees, and over Redditch town centre (although it was
impossible to tell how far away it was). I would estimate the
light to have been 10-15% the apparent diameter of the Sun, and
was a vivid green reminiscent of a flare, but not as bright. I
appreciate that that direction of travel would have made the
starboard navigation light of an aircraft a possibility, but it
was far brighter than a nav light, and it’s size as viewed would
have put the aircraft only a few hundred metres away. There was
no sound whatsoever. Redditch is now within the Controlled
Airspace surrounding Birmingham, but Birmingham Zone air traffic
control was not talking to any aircraft in the vicinity at the
time, and nothing showed up on my Virtual Radar system.

Location of Sighting: Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Date of Sighting: Sunday, 13th December 2009
Time: early afternoon, 12 ish ~ Witness: Lalita
I was checking for the new UFO sightings
in Aberdeen online to see if the ‘one’ I saw yesterday is
something related to UFO. I found this site where people who
witnessed shared their experience. Here is mine. I witnessed on
Sunday, around 12ish, while I was talking to my Fiancé in USA on
phone, lying on my bed looking out the window telling him about
the bright sunny beautiful blue skies in Aberdeen which happens
rarely in December, and I noticed a slow moving object which was
shaped like a star and Dark Blue in color ... turned to be
moving in a circular motion ... changing its shape and slowly
moving further into a round ball kind of a thing. It became
smaller and smaller as it moved away. I was trying to figure it
out, but couldn't.

Location of Sighting: Between Bulmer & Gestingthorpe, Essex,
England
Date of Sighting: 12th December 2009 ~ Time: 11:30
Witness Name: C M Warnes
I don’t believe in UFO’s as inferring the
existence of extraterrestrial life. I am sceptical and err on
the side of caution, usually doubting individual sightings as
some misinterpretation of a perfectly explainable event. That is
until ~ 11:30pm Saturday 12th December 2009. Whilst travelling
back by car from Bulmer, near Sudbury, towards Gestingthorpe...
my and my partners eyes were suddenly drawn towards a fast
descending light low in the sky. Our immediate and collective
thoughts were that of a shooting star, but as we discussed the
sighting later it was clear that for a number of reasons neither
actually believed it was. Firstly it appeared from nowhere and
lasted but a second or so, before disappearing equally
instantaneously as it neared the ground, but it had no trail,
and was of some size when compared to the appearance of a star.
We perceived it as being low in the sky with a very rapid but
shallow angle of descent at a distance vaguely but aptly
described as 'close' as opposed to distant. We heard no noise.
The object appeared as a cluster of bright white light, tending
toward being square in shape, with very evident green aurora.
What could it have been?
A shooting star? - No trail, too large, wrong shape and too low
in the sky. A helicopter? - Travelling far too fast in rapid
decent. A flare? - Trajectory too straight and obviously not
under the influence of gravity. A lantern? - Not orange!, too
fast and obviously propelled by something other than a breeze.
An aircraft? - Too fast for anything other than a jet at low
level close to mach one. A Jet? - Close to us but no noise, only
a singular light cluster no wing tip lights and with a
trajectory appearing to head toward the ground that disappeared
as instantaneously as the appeared from nowhere for a moment as
fleeting as that of a shooting star.
Do I now believe? Both being of a rational, practical and
scientifically minded we are equally puzzled and can offer no
explanation of events that fits the observation. A UFO? - Indeed
it was, and has provoked such considerable thought and debate
that even a sceptic now considers it worthy of a note to record
the event.

Location of Sighting: Mackworth, Derby, England
Date of Sighting: 12th December 2009 ~ Time: 5.30pm
Witness Name: Torz Cooper
I stepped out of the back door of my
partner’s parents house and happened to look at the sky, due
East. I was looking due East at about 45 Deg above the horizon
(I can’t find out what star I was looking at). At first I
thought I was looking at Orions Belt, but quickly realised it
was all wrong, and not only that but there were THREE STARS and
two of the were moving, but very slowly, towards the ONE
stationary star. The other two were the same size and luminosity
as the other one, but were moving in sync at the same distance
apart from each other, towards it. We watched them get closer to
the star for about a minute, and then they quickly faded out to
nothing. Both lights were star-size and star-colour. There were
5 witnesses to this event, myself and 5 of my children, ages
ranging from 9 to 15 yrs.

Location of Sighting: Tiptree, Essex, England
Date of Sighting: 12th December, 2009 ~ Time: 12.30am
Witness Name: Chris Wren
Driving home from Tollesbury, just on the
outskirts of Tiptree, I saw what I first thought to be a meteor,
(I had already seen a meteor from the Geminid shower early the
previous evening), but it was moving too slow to be a shooting
star so I stopped the car for a better look. It was a bright
fiery orange in colour and could have been made up of THREE
BALLS OF LIGHT in extremely tight formation - I say could have
been, because of the fiery nature they blended together as one.
I was a little worried as to all intents & purposes, it looked
like a large aircraft that was on fire - you could almost see
flames. it was moving at about or slightly faster than the speed
of a conventional aircraft - I would estimate a speed of at
least two or three hundred miles an hour - It travelled in a
straight line overhead then gently changed direction and took a
completely new course at almost right angles to the first one. I
got a pretty good look at it - It must have been about the size
of a conventional large aircraft - Definitely not a Chinese
lantern - It moved too fast and changed direction and it was a
clear cold night with little or no wind. It also was too late at
night to be a satellite and anyway satellites do not change
direction! I watched until it went out of sight wishing I had
brought a pair of binoculars and a camera.

Location of Sighting: Bath, Avon, England
Date of Sighting: 31st October, 2009 ~ Time: 11.30pm to
12 .30 pm
Witness Name: Lisa Jane Shepherd
Went for a ghost walk with my children and
two adults, as we walked we were struck dumbfounded as we where
followed by TWO ORANGE perfect orbs of light in the sky,
performing a zigzag dance. It was amazing; and then it hit us we
were witnessing a UFO sighting. Bizarre. My friend Amy caught
them on mobile phone this month as she and her son walked home.
Please somebody explain.

Location of Sighting: Newmarket, Suffolk. England
Date of Sighting: 13th December, 2009 ~ Time: 17:30
Witness Name: Noel Starling
This will be the second consecutive
evening that this has been witnessed. A single orange / red
light travelling low, and from North to South, heading towards
the Cambridge area. It was below patchy cloud, with no noise
witnessed at all. No navigation lights, and no differences in
the continual colour of the light. Constant speed at about 1,500
- 2,000 feet, which made me think it must have been a light
aircraft. I killed the sound on the TV, and I could only hear
the low noise of vehicles from the A14. I live in the top storey
of flats, and I had a perfect clear view - as in my previous
sighting. The object climbed slowly, while travelling away to
the south, and disappeared into the clouds... with no
acceleration, or difference in speed.

Location of Sighting: Trinafour, Kinloch Rannoch, Scotland
Date of Sighting: 12th December 2009, and previous dates
Time: 07.30 am --- Witness Name: Cod
I have seen this sighting twice before,
and yesterday convinced me I wasn't just 'seeing things'. Both
locations were in the morning, around half 7 time, just before
it was light and most stars were still visible. I saw two very
bright stars next to each other, horizontally, and it had small
lights going between them. If you think what a bike chain with
the gears are like, that's how it looked, with the gears being
the bright lights and the chain being the smaller lights in
between, rotating all the time. They appeared to be moving
towards me, but it was very difficult to tell what speed they
were going. Definitely moving, then after about three minutes
they broke off in opposite directions. The thing about the three
times I've seen them... the speed, colour, direction and
visibility of them were all different. The last one was
flashing; the others weren't. Both going at a medium speed and
they didn't fade away. It was like they saw me looking. I have
studied various strange things and moving objects in the sky but
this was in no way a plane. I didn't even have my camera. This
has been happening over the past year; and in a way its quite
interesting, and trying to tell someone what you saw, they look
at you like you are an idiot. Another one of my sightings was in
the morning again, this time of year, stars just visible over
one of the hills on the north side of Rannoch ... five objects
moving in various directions, then another few joined; then they
all disappeared. Perhaps someone else has seen something
similar.

Location of Sighting: Cheadle, Cheshire, England
Date of Sighting: 13th December 2009 ~ Time: 17.00hrs
Witness Name: P Lonsdale
Large orange ball. Slightly hazy, with
smaller orange ball below. Hovering. Then moving slowly in a
South West direction ... and then accelerating rapidly, in the
same direction ... reducing in size in the distance, until it
disappeared. Lasted about a minute. Clear cold night. Noticed a
number of house alarms had gone off (whilst outside the house)
at the same time.

Location of Sighting: St. Austell, Cornwall, England
Date of Sighting: 12th December 2009 ~ Time: 18.30
Witness Name: Patrick
I looked up into the sky to see how clear
the night sky was as the Geminids (shooting stars) were peaking
over the following days and we were planning to observe them
that night. What I saw was an orange light (the same colour as a
sodium light) moving in a roughly southerly direction. Initially
I thought it was a satellite, but it was too big for that. After
about 30 seconds it started turning away from me in a westerly
direction where it went out of sight over nearby trees. I also
discounted it as an aeroplane as we are in the flight path for
incoming planes for St. Mawgan (Newquay) airport and we are very
familiar with incoming flights. I also do not believe it was
Chinese Lanterns as we have also seen them with their
characteristic flickering and flight. I’m open to suggestions to
a logical explanation but at present can’t think of anything.
