Strange Orange Lights Baffle Britons

Clusters
of orange lights that have been illuminating the
night sky across Britain and Holland are baffling
onlookers, the Daily Mail reported Thursday.
These strange clusters of orange lights have been baffling onlookers across Britain. Witnesses have said the UFOs dart in between one another in perfect formation. These cell phone images were snapped by an onlooker in Birmingham, England, last week.
There are different explanations for the lights, which one man said he captured on his cell phone. An ex-military official told the Daily Mail that the lights were dropped by jets to simulate the path of a missile in order to test the warship's radar systems. But a woman in Lincoln, England -- where some lights were spotted -- said they were nothing more than Chinese lanterns that had been set off at her wedding reception.
Still others said the glowing orbs were an armada of invading UFOs, a theory that elicits scoffs from some experts.
One man who saw the lights on May 27 described them this way:
"They were traveling 15 at a time and every six minutes more seemed to be coming over the horizon. They were not planes. They were not balloons. Each one was the size of a building," said guesthouse owner Auberon Hedgecoe of Huntingdon, England.
The sightings even prompted military officials to check their logs for aircraft activity. But an air force spokesman for a nearby base said it was closed when the last activity was sighted.
SINC SAYS:
They're out there, aren't they? I knew it!
