Hi, My son has just come in 10:40pm and asked me what the light in the sky was. I looked through the window and saw a large orange light like a balloon burner floating across the back garden of my house. I said to my son lets go outside and I bet we can hear the burner. We went outside and the light shot straight up until it became a pin prick and disappeared. The light made no sound at all. The speed of it going up was very fast. I know it was not the local police helicopter as that is noisy and does not look like this. This was in Peterborough Cambs. I don't know if this is of any interest to you but both me and my son who is 22 have never seen anything like it before and we are amazed at how fast it went up. Thank you for your time.

Wyton On The Hill, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, England 20 Objects
Posted: October 4, 2008
Date: August 24, 2008
Time: 01.23hrs
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: About 20
Shape of objects: Round orange orbs
Weather Conditions: See description.
Description: 24th August 2008 – these are the notes that I wrote exactly after the event in the early hours of the morning.
Woke up to go to the toilet, looked out of the landing window and saw lights in the sky, (time about 01.00hrs) the lights were staggered higher to lower moving left in front of me, at the start I thought there was only 6 or so lights but counted at least 14.
I thought at first it was jets but were moving very slowly, so I went downstairs and had a look from the back door which I opened.
The lights continued along their way slowly and without noise for about 5mins.
I then thought they were Helicopters but again that many would have been very load, and they were very close, between Wyton and the sports field which is about 1 mile, the cloud is 10/10 seeing OK, I have never seen anything like this. I managed a couple of photos but they are not very good.
I would judge that the lowest light was lower or at most roof height. Again I would stress that there was absolutely no sound except the traffic on the road.
The wind is blowing right to left (Gusting) the lights moved in a forthright manner very controlled not moving out of station as a controlled unit. The lights were very bright. I have never seen anything like it before.
I would best describe them as orbs of light, in fact I was amazed as the closeness of the flying was fantastic as the main group in two waves was very close together.
The photos I took were the last 2/3 stragglers, (I tried to take video but they would not come out) hence the last min photos – note date/time on camera is wrong.
The time now is 01.57hrs
Temp 22° inside B/P 1018mb Temp out 16°
Note: the lights did not get faster or slower or deviate from their path. A very smooth continues movement. The lights were the same brightness viewed from the “Side” and the “Rear” which is very strange. I must stress that they made no sound.
I tried to take the video from the back door and the photos from the end of the path in the garden; I must admit taking the photos I became very afraid. Why??? Thinking about it I counted 14 in the main two waves, so there must have been at least 18 to 20 lights altogether as there was 3/4 stragglers.
Footnote: I am not a crank or a wishful UFO spotter, I am 40 years old and a former member of the Royal Observer Corps until they were disbanded, and I am also an amateur astronomer who has seen planets, stars and satellites moving around the night sky, I have also seen aircraft at night as the police helicopter is based within a mile of my house, the lights that I saw were orange and have no navigation beacons.

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:
Hello John,
I've taken a look at the Video, I would love to say that's what I saw but no, the lights did not flicker and the wind was very gusty which would have moved them out of formation, also the lights that I saw were oval/round in shape almost like a street lamp.
I have seen these balloon lamps before, I used to fly remote controlled aircraft/gliders etc and a club member had some one night on a free flight night.
I noticed that I am not the only person to have seen these type of lights in our area, if you have a look at http://www.jeanlucbenazet.com/blog/?p=174 this web page you will note that others have seen something similar or the same.
Do you have any idea as to what these things were/are? I suppose that you get loads of crank stuff but I really did see this. I have taken a look at my photos in detail (for what they are worth) and I cannot see as much a shadow let a lone a frame or anything other than the light.
Thanks & best wishes.

Chatteris Cambridgeshire Small Round Balls Of Orange/Red Light
Posted: September 21, 2008
Date: September 20, 2008
Time: 8:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: High Street, Chatteris
Number of witnesses: 3 ?
Number of objects: 5 - 6
Shape of objects: Small round balls of orange/red light.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was waiting in the take away when a man and his daughter stopped out the front of the take away and he started shouting "look, oh my god can you see that." I walked over to the door and looked up in the sky and was amazed to see a formation of what I can only describe as balls of red/orange light moving very slowly from the right of the sky across in a straight line to the left before they appeared to 'burn out'. There was absolutely no noise at all. The lights weren't flashing like you would see on an aircraft, they were solid balls of light. The sky was totally clear and the movement was so slow, I could only stand and watch. I was too amazed at what I was seeing to be able to get my phone out my pocket and take a picture-I'm kicking myself that I didn't.! I only saw them move over the top of a selection of the shops (2 terraced houses and 3 shops joined together to be precise) Then as they got over the top of Chatteris Garage and they just burnt out, no noise nothing.

This is the best way I can show you how they were positioned.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire UK Three Lights Yellowish In Color
Posted: September 11, 2008
Date: November 1, 2006
Time: Approx: 8:45 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Lights.
Weather Conditions: Clear.
Description: I had gone out into the back garden to take out a bag of rubbish and I looked up towards the north west. There were three lights, slightly yellowish in colour, playing tag with each other. As far as I could tell they were as high, if not higher than a commercial aircraft. They zoomed left to right and up and down in a way no aircraft of ours could possibly do. After about 5 or 6 seconds, which doesn't sound very long but was long enough for me to register that what I was seeing was not of this world, they just stopped dead in their tracks, as if they had been seen and the lights just went out.
TV/Radio: None seen.

Sawston Cambridge Cambridgeshire Two Round Lights
Posted: June 14, 2008
Date: June 4, 2008
Time: Approx: 11:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round lights.
Weather Conditions: Clear night.
Description: We were standing in the garden just noting that the sky was clear and we could see the stars. When 2 lights came into view quite quickly. They appeared to have a fixed relationship of distance as if on the wings of a plane. However if the lights had been the distance apart that they appeared then the plane would have been close and low. These lights appeared to turn in an arc away from us and move away towards the south in the direction of Stanstead and London. One light was slightly blue and the other slightly orangey, there was no sound at all from the direction of the lights, they moved much faster that aircraft coming into the airport, and there was no flashing lights and no other light(ie landing lights). They moved out of sight within maybe a minute, minute and a half. We were both independently struck by the extremely odd nature of the sighting and both felt it was unlike any other lights we had ever observed. Quite quickly other aircraft were in sight and hearing but they were nothing like these two lights.
TV/Radio: N/A
Additional Information:
Thanks John,
Looked at the site as you suggested. No is the answer nothing at all like that. These lights are very well represented by one of your other sightings in the Cambridge area where I guy has "mocked up" what he saw. He saw three lights, we saw two. The lights are unusual in there clarity and quality, I wonder if the word luminous may help describe them? It was the oddest thing. I was glad that I was with someone when we watched them.

Wyton, Cambridgeshire, UK A Ball Like Intense White Light (UFO)
Posted: May 28, 2008
Date: 2000
Time: 7:30 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Ball like intense white light.
Weather Conditions: Cold frosty evening.
Description: In 2000 was vesting the Cambridge Gunina pig centre with girlfriend who had taken her sick animal down for treatment. I decided to sit in the car in the car park next to the centre and smoke a few cigs before joining my girlfriend. The night was very dark and quite cold so sat and looked at the sky while I smoked and listened to music on the radio. After around 10 minutes I noticed a ball like intense white light in the sky to my right. I looked at it for about a further ten or so minutes trying to decide if it was a distant aircraft which was either hovering or coming in from hell of a range. I then realized it was getting closer or larger. So took a pair of binoculars we kept in the car glove compartment for a better view.
I decided to get of the car to view it from outside and when I did noticed there was no sound coming from it. I noticed that whatever I was watching made no noise and i was a bit taken a back by it. I had grown up near RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire and had seen countless aircraft coming in to land and take off at night and this didn't seem to be fitting what I knew. The light or aircraft (that I thought at the time) got bigger and bigger and much brighter and with the binoculars it seemed to pulse as it got closer to me.
Then I heard aircraft noise and for a second or two I felt a sense of relief but then I realized this was coming from two fighter type aircraft, which headed straight towards the bright light. They were traveling at some speed from the sound and thrust of the engines that I saw but as they got close to the light it moved away at very high speed. The two aircraft seemed to chase after it and I kept my binoculars on all three until they had gone from view but the light
seemed to create rapid distance between itself and the two aircraft and seemed to be traveling at very high speed. The bright light came back in the distance about five minutes later before shooting off at very, very high speed.
The whole incident made me feel quite nervous and I went to join my girlfriend with her sick pet. In the centre waiting room I told a few people of what i had just seen but no-one seemed be concerned and I mentioned it to the owner of the centre who didn't comment either. All the way back home my girlfriend didn't take my sighting seriously and I tried to forget what I had seen. To this day I feel I saw a UFO that night and wish I could have spoken to someone about it before. Prior to that night I did not believe in UFOs and put all sightings down to people mistaking aircraft or planets for something unknown.
TV/Radio: Not reported to anyone.
