IT was a breathtaking sight which was thoroughly enjoyed by guests at the wedding of an Epping couple.
But the release of some 60 to 70 illuminated Thai lanterns into the night sky over Leez Priory, near Felsted, sparked fears that aliens were on their
way.
Police received several calls from concerned residents who spotted a series of bright lights passing over their homes.
A police spokesman said that one caller reported "a large amount of red lights" in batches of five or six lights over Bannister Green on the evening
of Monday, March 21.
Other callers contacted Stansted Airport concerned that extra-terrestrial activity was about to land.

This just goes to show that not everything we see in the sky is of extra-terrestrial origin.
I guess it would seem really strange though if you saw all those things just floating around. I bet it was a cool site for the people at the wedding.
I think Im going to try and make one of those little lanterns. Just my luck I would let off all the lanterns and burn the hill down and get charged
zillions of dollars.
