Full Description of Event/Sighting: My partner and I were coming home from Avebury in Wiltshire, where we spent most of Christmas discussing UFO's and Crop circles with my brother and his family. (This in itself was a very unusual happening, since my brother is a corn circle skeptic).

On Boxing Day evening, returning home down the A3 from my son, home near Henley-on-Thames, we took the Liphook exit and then left off the second roundabout towards Hazelmere.

After about 200-300 yards we spotted a bright orange light coming across the sky in front of us from the right. At first we thought it looked like some kind orange rocket of fireworks, but after it reached the highest point it didn't, as normal for a rocket, begin to plummet, but stayed up and continued to travel across the sky.

At that moment my partner thought it resembled a Chinese lantern, but that was also dismissed as it was way too big and too fast. It was at least 8-10 times bigger than any aeroplane light, it’s orange/red light wasn't shiny, but rather misty, gentle and transparent, similar to a glow in the dark that pulsated at a constant frequency.

It came around us in a half circle and then hovered above the roof tops, pulsating directly outside my passenger window, which I quickly opened so that we could both see it even more clearly. It stayed there for about 10-15 seconds before disappearing behind the rooftops. We quickly accelerated to get a clearer view and my partner caught it shooting off at a mighty speed.

This was a first UFO sighting for both of us and the best Christmas present either of us could ever have imagined.
