Triangular Shaped UFO Hovering In The Sky Between Edinburgh And Irvine UK

Date:  November 28, 2014
Time:  Evening.

Hi there, I was driving from Edinburgh to Irvine last night on the 28th November 2014.

As me and my son looked out the right hand side window we could see a triangular shaped object hovering or slowly flying past us heading east.

It was a flame like color no trails, no lights or anything.

We thought a meteor, but to trail and a lot slower.

We have been curious since last night and thought I would share this with you. Thanks.

Huge Brilliant White Oval Shaped UFO Hovers Over The Ground At Loganlea Loan Edinburgh Scotland UK

 

Date:  October 1996

Time:  5:45 a.m.

 

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Oval/circular.

 

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Had been out and about with my cousin in his car as he had not long passed his test and boys being boys, were out all night cruising about.

 

It was when he was heading to drop me off at Logan Lea Loan, we came over the brow of the hill and instantly noticed this bright light (brilliant white) oval shape around the same length as a transit van, and probably as tall just hovering over the 2 in a block flats. Maybe twenty meters above very close.

 

There was no real noise other than a light humming/buzzing sound. As I was the passenger, I rolled down the window and leaned out, as I was trying to focus on a solid object behind the light, but I could not as we got within 15 meters the object slowly started moving north towards Craigentinny Road, at a very slow pace as we followed as if it were toying with us.

 

We continue to follow and its path changes to a northwest direction, basically the same route as Craigentinny Road. By this time, its maybe 15 meters above the 6 in a block tenements. It was starting to speed up, but still less than 30 mph and then when we got the the Findlay Gardens junction, it just vanished.

 

We were not sure if shot up/ landed in the golf course or what. We investigated the golf course and nothing as we were still full of amazement and excitement.

 

We returned the the original location, hoping it may have returned. We were parked in the middle of the street with two of us gazing skyward only to find ourselves blocking a police car that was heading up the street.

 

So we went about telling the officers about what we had witnessed, only to be laughed at. Who cares, we felt very lucky to have witnessed what we did, and still do.

 

It was a pretty busy time for UFOs that 12-18 months, as I was lucky enough to see another interesting object.

Object Seen Trailing Orange Sparks Over New Town Edinburgh UK

 

Date:  March 3, 2012

Time:  Approx: 9:40 p.m.

 

I'm relieved to see that other folk saw this too, I nearly phoned the Police as I thought it was about to hit a building! I live in the New Town and saw what I thought was a rocket initially, travelling from the north.

 

It caught my attention as it was flying horizontal to the ground and trailing orange sparks. It’s trajectory was tracking north to south and passed right over my property.

 

I ran through the building to watch it disappear towards the south (Bridges I would guess). It must have been travelling at several hundred miles per hour and no sound.

 

It can't have been flying at much more than 1,000 feet. No idea what it was, a small meteor perhaps?

Orange Yellow Object With Glowing Tail Over North Bridge Edinburgh Scotland UK

 

Date:  March 3, 2012

Time:  Approx: 9:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

 

I just seen the same thing traveling south over the North Bridge in Edinburgh about 9/9:30 this evening.

 

I thought was a firework or flare, but no bang and no dip as in a flare.

 

Then maybe a bit space debris, but with yourself saying this seems a bit weird.

Object Was Blue In Color And It Had A Orange Tail Spotted Over Edinburgh Scotland UK

 

Date:  March 3, 2012

Time:  After 9:00 p.m.

 

Hi there, a group of us, approximately 14 people, were standing on the corner of Royal Mile and St Mary's Street after 21h00 and saw this too!

 

I thought the tail was orange, but the head looked a bit blue, and it was very low into the sky and very bright over the Mile.

 

It went on for ages, reckon it may have 'burned out' Cameron Toll area. The sighting lasted for a while, that was definitely not a firework either. Too high and we were on one of the Hills of Edi, there's no way that was launched from Calton Hill area.

 

The tail was long, and the sighting lasted for about 15 seconds. I could see it way in the distance, awesome! Look forward to hearing more.

Red Light Spotted Over Queen's Park Edinburgh Scotland (Chinese Lanterns)

 

Date:  January 18, 2012

Time:  Approx: 8:15 p.m.

Good evening, I saw something similar while driving through Edinburgh Queen's Park (Holyrood Park) last night (18 January 2012).

Funnily enough it was at the same time as your report on this page, about 8:15 p.m. http://worldufos.blogspot.com/2011/03/intense-orange-colored-object-west-of.html

I entered the park at the Pollock Halls gate, and turned left at both roundabouts.

As I drove downhill, heading north west. I saw a red light in the sky with a bit of an orange tint to it.

It seemed to be a stubby vertical cylinder, very bright, possibly encased by a clear plastic globe. I say plastic because glass would have given a sharper quality to the light.

The light seemed to be slightly diffused.

It could have been a balloon, but seemed a bit large for a Chinese lantern. Chinese New Year celebrations are already under way, so a lantern is a possibility.

I was able to slow down as there was no traffic behind me, but could not stop safely until I got to the bottom of the hill, by which time it was out of my line of sight so I didn't bother. Other cars came up the hill at the same time as I went down, and they must have seen it too.

It did not appear to be moving (but remember I was driving, and had to keep checking the road).

On checking the alignment on Google Maps and Street View afterwards I could persuade myself that it may have been over Edinburgh Castle.

One other thing, as I passed Pollock Halls before entering the Park I noticed a crowd of about 30 people, probably students from the halls of residence, and I wonder now if they were looking at the same thing.

Whatever it was was large, and it seemed to be man-made. Like your original poster, I would like to know what it was too.

Update:

Hello Brian, I asked a friend who works at Edinburgh Castle. He told me that some students released 5 Chinese Lanterns at Prestonfield Hotel that night.

That is close to the Queen's Park, so what I saw was probably one of those. Sorry to have troubled you.

Yellow Orange Disc Shaped Object In The Northern Part Of Edinburgh Scotland UK

Date: April 17, 2011

Time: Approx: 8:50 p.m.

Evening of 17th April 2011 (Sunday), about 20:50, travelling from southwest to east, northeast over the northern part of Edinburgh and disappearing in the direction of North Berwick. What at the time I took to be a plane on fire or a meteor or a substantial piece of space debris flying across the sky and disappearing again.

I watched the object for several minutes and it was a rough circle of yellow and orange light. Definitely not an aircraft! I watched it too long and it maintained this disc-shape and light structure that marked it out.

Intense Orange Colored Object West Of Edinburgh City Scotland UK

Date: March 24, 2011
Time: Between 8:15 p.m. - 9:10 p.m.

Are hot air balloons allowed to fly over the UK at night?

Spotted tonight, initially hovering over the west of Edinburgh city at approximately 8:15 pm. I watched as the object made off in a southerly direction over the Pentland Hills to quickly fade and disappear. I have to admit that it did look like a hot-air-balloon, but the large "flame" was an intense orange colour and when in motion was much too fast for a balloon.

It seemed to have a balloon like canopy that was cream in colour and semi transparent, but I saw no balloon style ribbing and no basket or gondola beneath.

The object reappeared almost an hour later as I was walking my dog. It steadily and at quite a speed, flew with the purpose of a manually guided craft back over the hills (as far as I know, balloons don't make U turns) to the spot in the sky where I first saw it, where, once again, it hovered before moving slowly a short distance to the west.

It then started to fade and vanish in what was a cloudless sky with many visible stars, almost as if the light or flame was slowly turned off.

If there are any other reported sightings, I would be very interested to know exactly what it was that I saw.

Red And Orange Light Objects Over Tollcross Edinburgh Scotland UK

Date: January 1, 2011

Time: 12:10 to 12:45 a.m.

Red and orange light objects were hovering and flying from low until they couldn't see them anymore. Right out of the atmosphere some were just sitting in mid air constantly, not moving very much at all. I seen 3 or 4 at a time from my top flat view. All in all there must have been about 10 or 12 as 2 more came hovering over top of the building after they thought they had all gone.

This went of from about 12:10am until about 12:45am. My girlfriend and I just watched them, trying to figure out what they were. Lanterns I don't think so as they moved to fast with to much purpose. The ones that went right up on a diagonal line and out of sight at one point, 3 lined up like a formation, mass UFO sighting in my view.

Orange Ball Of Light Over Broomhall Crescent Edinburgh Scotland

Date: December 25, 2010

Time: 10:54 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Broomhall Crescent Edinburgh Scotland.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Orange ball.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I came home from my aunties and let our dog out the back and my fiancé went upstairs to the toilet and this orange ball flew right above the houses at the back going from left to right. It never changed speed, but when I shouted for my girlfriend to come and look at it.

It suddenly started dimming, but you could still see the object slightly. It did not make any noise. I am a 22 year old man and I am not into this kind off stuff at all, and have never seen anything like this before.

I have read through some things in the last 20 minuets about it might be a Chinese lantern, but it was 100% not a lantern and people in Edinburgh don't do that or I have never seen or heard off that nonsense. Please could you email me if you get any more sightings of this please.

Balls Of Fire Over Edinburgh Scotland

Date: December 18, 2010
Time: Approx: 8:00 p.m.

Regarding the report at this link: http://worldufos.blogspot.com/2010/09/bright-orange-light-over-edinburgh.html

Hi, I saw something which totally corresponds to what is said in the link. I was walking in the meadows earlier around 20:00 on Saturday 18, 2010. There was a kind of ball of fire which I first took for a shooting star, but then I noticed a sudden change in direction and it just disappeared in the night sky, then a few seconds later there was another one which followed the exact same trajectory.

Ball Of Orange Fire Over Currie Edinburgh Scotland UK

Date: October 11, 2010
Time: Approx: 8:00 p.m.

I saw, from the description, the exact same thing, on the same date In Currie, Edinburgh, when I was walking down from the bus stop. There was a man with 2 dogs, I noticed he was also looking at it. When I walked past him I remarked on how strange it was and he said, it was a bit late for it to be flying and when I asked him what it was, he suggested it was a hot air balloon.

I thought it was travelling a bit to fast to be a hot air balloon, and that it didn't look like the shape I would have expected to see. It was alot more round like. I've never seen anything like it. It was like a ball of fire travelling through the sky. The fire went out just after it flew over my head and it was then like a black circle flying through the sky. It never sped off, it remained at quite a constant speed. I would say it was maybe around 8 o'clock or something, maybe half 7.

I'm not the kind to rule other life form out, but its not something I think about, or pay much attention to, and certainly nothing I would have expected to have seen in my life time or in Currie. I'm not saying it was or wasn't a "UFO" so to speak, but I was just a bit weirded out by what it was. There didn't seem to be any logical explanation for it. I thought maybe there was, and that was why I checked out to see if anyone else had sighted it on that date. I was thinking maybe someone might have been able to shed some light on it.

If you list this sighting on your website, I would prefer that you don't use my name or email address, although I'm happy for you or anyone else to contact me, through yourself, if you want to ask anything..

Thanks.

Large Orange Object Over Musselburgh East Of Edinburgh Scotland UK

Date: October 9, 2010

Time: Approx: 9:15 p.m.

Hi, I watched an orange glow in the sky for around 5 minutes last night over Edinburgh. This was on Sat 9th Oct 2010 around 9:15pm. I live in Musselburgh to the east of Edinburgh and I was looking at the sky over Edinburgh. It was large, around the size of a half moon in shape and had three small globe shapes in the glow and it was moving and stationary in this time.

When it moved, it moved upwards and north very quickly then came to rest, it was stationary for around around a minute then moved down and south. My first thought that it was maybe a projection from Edinburgh castle or something to do with the airport which is the general location of the lights I was seeing. Would like to know what it was as I have never seen anything like it before.

Bright Orange Object Seen Over South Edinburgh Scotland

Date: September 28, 2010
Time: Approx: 9:30 p.m.

Hi, I saw a bright orange flame type object crossing the sky around 9:30pm on Sunday 28 September 2010. I viewed it from south Edinburgh, crossing in a north west direction. It was too fast to be a plane, but too slow to be a shooting star. I thought it was so strange I called my wife outside to take a look. I’d be interested to know if anyone else saw this? Regards.

Bright Orange Light Over Edinburgh Scotland UK

Date: September 5, 2010
Time: Approx: 9:30 p.m.

Edinburgh, Sunday 5th September approx 9.30 pm. I was standing with a crowd of people watching the end of festival fireworks. When I turned my head to look at the crowd, I noticed in the sky to the south an orange light glowing bright and traveling slowly in a northwest direction, it was visible for a few minuets before fading out.

I could not determine if it was attached to something, and not sure of its altitude. My nephew suggested it was a helicopter, but there were no red, green or white lights.

Bright Orange Light Over Edinburgh Scotland

Date: September 10, 2010

Time: Approx: 9:15 p.m.

Hi, I just read your web page about an orange light in the sky. I live near Edinburgh airport and last night we noticed a bright orange light which didn’t appear to be too high in the sky, moving from South to North . At the same time a plane was taking off from Edinburgh Airport. The Orange light would appear to cross over the flight path then headed up and away eastwards until it became a dot and then gone from view.

This happened at around 9:45pm last night. A few minutes later the same thing happened again, again a plane was leaving the airport and again the light crossed over the flight path and headed east wards.

I found it so strange that I surfed the internet and found your page. You seem to have had a similar “sighting”. Any idea what this is/was. I notice you are in Leeds/Bradford and your sighting was two months ago. Has anyone else come to you with similar sightings. Regards.
