You could do with asking what they saw. If they or you could comment on their sightings here, that would help get a more detailed view on the situation.

Just posted in the other thread about the uk orange orbs, i saw 2 more tonight.

Sorry not too good on the computer so dont know how to post a link to it so maybe check my post history if you want to read about what i saw.

My Daughter and I saw something very similar tonight over Liverpool at around 20.15, we where heading down the M62 into the city, I asked if she could see it, and she surprised me by saying yes and that it was just over there, and she pointed about 90 degrees to the right, she had followed it, it was moving pretty fast , no flashing lights, and certainly was not a lantern, seen enough of them in my investigations and research to know what they look like within seconds.

It was moving North West towards Widnes, I lost sight of it because I was trying to concentrate on driving and it was a little wet.

Got to add my Daughter gets really scared when we see things like this, she used to travel with me, last year we saw one at Shell Island North Wales, and made a report, the nearby Llanbedr base lit up and people on the base where running everywhere as it passed over, seeing how the base is now a mothballed Nuclear V Bomber base, it was kind of surprising, anyhow she became scared when UFO hunters asked us could they interview us, they where making a show about the helicopter chasing the UFO over the river seven, the show was cancelled after the evidence disappeared and they then denied the incident, also my Daughter wanted nothing to do with it she was so afraid of what she had seen.

Then about 3 or 4 months ago our sighting was backed up, when someone else reported the exact same descriptive object at the same location, made it more interesting for ufocasebook, because they already had our report and description on their files.

So tonight's sighting really upset her a lot, my best guess it would have been seen over Widnes and Warrington if the course stayed the same, and between 20.15 and 21.00, after that is anyones guess.

Already have in another thread, a year or two ago and i can't seem to find it.

In a nutshell on seperate occasions various friends and people i know have seen either a single orange orb or a trio of obrs flying in V formations and then making non random patterns , circles etc.

Glowing balls, definately not lanterns. Sighted both evening and night time for extended periods of time 2 minutes to 15 minutes roughly.

Edit: spelling

Nice to see someone else sighting this too. Thanks for the detailed write up, will help document it for future reference.

" it was moving pretty fast , no flashing lights, and certainly was not a lantern, seen enough of them in my investigations and research to know what they look like within seconds."

The second sighting I had on the 28th of October was moving fast, like you mentioned. It moved across the night sky right in front of my house, as I said, me, my mum, my uncle, brother and my brothers girlfriend watched this one at the same time having had my brothers girlfriend phone our house to say she seen it. So this one was viewable for quite a distance but was only visible for more then, id say, getting on for a minute before it faded away.

Im glad you said "and certainly was not a lantern, seen enough of them in my investigations" as my common sense told me what I saw was not a lantern, it was a pure orange glow, like the sun bright.

Normally when you look at something in the sky, no matter what it is. If its something we have seen in our lives or know about, our brain picks up and it, and we naturally dont worry for it, we normally just dismiss it........ Still when I looked up at this object, nothing fit. It was like I was not meant to see it.

I posted this in another thread: some of these sightings can indeed be explained as sky lanterns, there's no question. But I guarantee you with great certainty that the majority are not! It's just that the frequency of real UFO orb activity -- which I believe are extraterrestrials of a multi-dimensional existence -- is increasing, and more people are noticing. People are becoming more aware of the phenomenon. Yes, I realize that to the rational mind this info. might seem ridiculous and far-fetched, but it's true! If you truly think that all the amber/orange UFO orbs you see flying around in England are nothing but paper lanterns, I cannot be more ardent in telling you that you are entirely mistaken and only deceiving yourself. Take it from someone who witnessed two orbs a few hundred feet above his neighbor's roof, morphing, multiplying, and materializing out of nowhere for a span of 20 minutes last August. The phenomenon is real. When/if it ever becomes accepted, public knowledge that these things do infact exist and are intelligently controlled, you are going to remember people like me and ufoorbhunter.

I also live in manchester, iv'e seen these on numerous occasions now and i agree that there not satalites or lanterns. let's hope we get some disclosure about things that have been going on soon

Hi there blackproject,
I am new to ATS. However I did try and send you a Private Message to discuss your sighting. (wont allow as I need over 20 posts first)
Which area of Manchester, UK are you in? Please could you contact me and send me your landline via PM? I'd like to discuss this a little further?

My family have been witnesses to strange orbs of light in the Manchester area for the last 6-7 months, its become quite a hotspot here, we live in Denton, a small town which is between Ashton Under Lyne and Stockport.

My personal very first sighting happened this year in September 2009, I have since seen other orbs, but not reported them as of yet.
The one I seen in September I reported to MAPIT who research aerial phenomena in the local area, I got a report back to confirm that my sighting left them completely stumped, it wasn't an aircraft, wasnt a balloon and certainly didnt display any attributes that left me believing it was commercial aircraft.

Here is what I typed out to them in my report:
I am writing to you to report a strange light/object in the sky. I witnessed this at 09:05pm on 14th September 2009.

I wasn't the initial witness, as I was summoned by my mother from my own bedroom to follow her at around 09:02pm. She had watched this light from her own bedroom window for a few minutes previous. Her initial thought was that it was a plane/aircraft, however the light was approaching and had not made or emitted any flashing light which are usually associated with terrestrial/commercial aircraft.

I got to the bedroom window of my mums room and looked up into the sky, it wasn't cloudy and was clear enough, what I saw was a circular white light that was moving quickly across the sky. The objects light didn't flash and the object continued to move, as the object moved out of view I ran downstairs into the back garden to observe the object a minute or two more, I was joined by my older brother who witnessed the object as well, through his binoculars he tracked it for a few seconds then asked me to have a look, when I got the binoculars and managed to bring it into view I couldn't see any red or blue lights or any tail or wings.. it was a circular white/bright light, at some point in the sky it appeared to 'power down' and then disappear out of view, almost fading into the night sky, I could still see the object and caught a slight glimpse of the outline of the object move or bank in a sharp right movement and I then lost track of it. I am unsure if the object went up into the sky out of view or too far away in the distance for me to continuously view it.

I would welcome your feedback or explanation after examination of the incident, I would also be interested in hearing if anybody else witnessed this same object/light in the sky. The evening was very clear and I would be hoping that because I do not have photographic or video evidence, that someone else has reported the incident.

I live in a town 10 miles out from Liverpool and seen these quite a few times.

I've also seen one every night for the last 3 nights. Strange things they are,definately not aircraft.

Very well spotted. It's rare you hear of anybody spotting the fade out effect and still making out the shape of the ufo orb. It happens for sure and it makes you wonder how many of them are up there all the time in this almost invisible state.

Can you describe the weather when you saw it?

Do any of you have access to an infrared camera? Failing that, do any of you have access to a night vision camera or lens?

Second line for silly reasons.

Are you referring to my post or the threadstarter?
I'll answer anyway just in case.

On my sighting on the 14th of September
there was hardly any cloud in the sky that night, because of this I was quite surprised, particularly as Manchester seems to have alot of cloudy weather, even during the summer months of June, July & August we have cloudy weather it's rare now that we get days of clear weather, but i can confirm that it wasn't cloudy, the sky was clear. Visibility was excellent.
