Two Bright Red Lights Over Waltham Abbey UK

Date: August 12, 2010

Time: Approx: 10:30 p.m.

Hello, I was looking online for any info on silent red lights in the sky and came across a post of yours requesting details of sightings.

I saw two bright red lights in the sky over Waltham Abbey on the 12th August 2010 at about 10:30pm, while watching for Perseid meteors. They were silent and moving quite fast ( north east to south west or thereabouts).

We do get quite a lot of airplanes going to and fro and also military planes and helicopters, but we can hear them and they have flashing lights. These lights were steady and bright red and a little diffuse as if I was seeing them through cloud. There was a light cloud cover at the time. There was no flashing and they were silent.

I know that some similar sightings elsewhere have turned out to be Chinese lanterns, but whatever these were they were on a very straight path and travelling parallel to each other. Surely Chinese Lanterns would have been blown about a bit. I couldn't make out the shape of whatever these things were.

I wish I'd videoed them now. If I see anything like this again I'll try to get some footage. Regards.

If you have seen anything like this in the same area please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike at: sighting@telus.net with the details of your sighting. All personal information is kept confidential.

Waltham Windmill, U.K. Sphere

Posted: June 18, 2008

Date: June 10, 2008
Time: 11:30 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Sphere.
Weather Conditions: Clear with the very occasional low cloud. Not enough to obscure the stars.

Description: At around 11.30 pm, my fiancée and I were having a drink in the garden before going bed. Our property stands alone directly behind the windmill and is approx 100ft above sea level. (Brigsley Top). Lack of street lights (or any other type of light pollution) along with open fields to the rear of the property gives us the opportunity to see the night sky very clearly. The view from our back garden is across to the villages of Tetney, Holton Le Clay and
beyond them, the Humber estuary.

At 11.30 my fiancée alerted me to a bright, orange sphere hovering above the horizon. As we watched this orange ball or sphere moved silently, erratically and unlike any aircraft we are familiar with.

The spheres rapid change of direction from backwards to forwards, then off again in a completely different direction made us certain this was a UFO we were watching. It would stop for a matter of 30 seconds before swiftly moving onto another position, as if it mapping out the landscape perhaps. We wondered if the exact location was directly above the Humber.

Occasionally three smaller red spheres could be seen almost dancing around the orange light only to vanish altogether.

We watched for an hour and it continued mapping out the surface below.

I do recall a very similar sighting last year as reported in the Grimsby Telegraph. The account given by the witness was almost identical to what we had seen.

TV/Radio: No.
