Default Just saw a UFO (Foil hats on standby)
So, off out to grab a bag of chips for lunch, driving to the end of the road and I saw a bright spot of a light over the local MOD depot. Think North star, but about 10 times as bright. Also, given that it's solid cloud out there today it was deffinately not a star. Anyway, I pulled over by the side of the road, got out looking at it trying to work out what it was. I thought it might be a helicopter with it's search-light on and just happened to be pointing directly at me. It looked like it would be about right but I couldn't hear anything and couldn't make out any structure around the pin-hole of light. It was totally stationary so I figured I'd snap a picture on my phone, I got my phone out, looked down to select the camera feature and when I looked up again about 3-4 seconds later, it was gone. Totally vanished.

Very very bizzare.

Could have it been one of those stupid Chinese lanterns that seem to be all the rage in the UK at the moment?

Possibly, but it seemed very bright. Given it's the middle of the day it was far brighter than I would have expected. Like I said, it looked like somone shining a spotlight towards you from a few hundred yards away.

I've seen UFO's like 3 times, I won't tell the story or talk to many people about it though as everyone just says it's impossible, but sometimes you as a person actually know what you saw regardless of what people think.

A shiny balloon passing through light from a hole in the clouds?

The Sun?


Seriously, if you don't know what it was, it's a UFO by definition.

Which is why I take more notice when someone says, "I saw a flying saucer!" Or "I saw a little green man with a ray gun!" Or "ET just stole my iPhone!" Or "I fought Predator and made him tap-out!"

I have no idea what it was nor can I explain how it vanished in a couple of seconds. That said, I only saw the light for about 20 seconds in total tops so I had little time to really assess what it might be.

The flash of light you saw in the sky was not a UFO. Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus.
