Time: Approx: 00:15
Location of Sighting: Looking east and northeast towards Armthorpe.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 7
Shape of objects: Orange balls.
Full Description of event/sighting: While looking out of my garden towards Arthorpe while watching the New Years eve fireworks I noticed 3 orange like balls in the sky that seemed to be coming towards us from an easterly direction. Which after a short while started to veer right towards Finningley keeping the same height at all times and then slowly fading away as they moved towards Finningley. As soon as these 3 objects disappeared another 2 appeared from the same direction and another 2 further across the sky from what would be in the direction of the racecourse north easterly direction. I have know logical explanation to what these objects might be and would be interested if you could shed any light on what they might be from other reports you might have received.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Armthorpe Doncaster U.K. A Sphere Shaped Object
Posted: July 31, 2008
Date: July 23, 2008
Time: 10:40 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Sphere.
Weather Conditions: Clear.
Description: Just come in from having a cigarette in the back garden and noticed a light coming in my direction from west to east. I thought it was the headlights of a plane coming in to land at Robin Hood Airport in Doncaster as we get a lot of flight traffic overhead. The object was a golden, single light. It didnt lose altitude and was moving slower than an incoming civilian aircraft. I watched it pass pretty much directly overhead and was surprised by 2 things: 1 - it was silent and 2 - normally when planes go over, the headlights appear to go out as it passes by. This light stayed the same shape and had no wing or tail lights. There were 2 normal planes in the sky ( with wing and tail lights) at the same time - albeit moving in different, unrelated directions.
I have no observational experience so I cannot give much of a guide as to speed and height - however, it was at approximately the same height that police helicopters often pass at ( if that's any help) and slower moving. If it was at roughly the same height that police helicopters fly at, then in terms of size it was much smaller - maybe 2-3 metres across maximum. I came back in the house and upstairs to my room which is front facing and watched the light until it was no longer visible. That was 22:48. Apologies if the description is vague.
Here is a jpeg I did using google maps of the apparent flight path - the yellow circle is my house - the red dotted line is, what I believe to be the flight path.
[UFOINFO Note: I have not included the jpeg as it could cause problems for the witness and his privacy.]
TV/Radio: not reported as I had nothing to back up the "sighting".
-----
UFOINFO Note: As with other similar reports I asked the witness to have a look at the UFO Balloons website to see if this is what might have been seen and received the following reply:
Hi John,
I watched the balloon video and can categorically state that it was definitely NOT one of those balloons from the video.
This isn't the first thing I have seen, or reported - as I reported a sighting I had whilst living in Billericay, Essex about 4 years ago of a static, colour changing diamond shaped light. I have also seen several objects around Doncaster at different times going back to 1995.
I am widely read in the matter. Since my first "sighting" in 1995 I've spent a lot of time reading both sides of the argument. I have no answers as to who or what some of these things are. I also accept that, just because I have no idea what any of the objects were, there is probably a rational explanation for all of them.
Given my interest in the subject, I watch anything that I see as closely as possible. Most are things that you'd expect them to be but this one I thought was worth reporting in case anyone else may have seen it and have an explanation.
It may have been a balloon, albeit, a bigger and much more brightly lit one. There was also no variation in the flight path - it was a dead straight line. Given that it was breezy on the night I saw it, if it was a balloon - I would expect it to have some slight deviations in its course. Of course, not being a meteorologist of aerodynamic expert, I may be wrong in that assumption.
