UFO ? (as in possibly floating not flying) Filmed today 19/12/11 UK

Interesting object filmed off the UK Kent coast I guess it must be a boat or some sort of platform although lights look strange for a boat and I don't think there are any platforms off Kent.Anyway have a look see what you think.

Well it definitly looks strange... I personally couldn't say what it is...

I honestly don't know, but I'm sure people will state it's a fishing boat on the horizon. Not very many USO videos pop up on ats so this should be a little more fun to watch get debunked.

UFO? to say that is a bit of a stretch of the imagination would be an understatement..

It doesn't appear submerged to me (USO).

Very interesting none the less.

The first thought that came to my mind is that this is a fishing boat.

I would absolutly love for this to be a craft of unknown make - but I don't think there is enough information to tell.

I know alot of fishing boats have a main spot light dead center, while other lights are surrounding the sides.

But at the same time this object looks slightly elevated above the surface.

Good find - hopefully something interesting will arise out of this thread.

Star and Flag.

First of all.
This is not a USO as it's not submerged.

Second of all.
Might be a fishersboat with all of its lights on..

Is there a fishing industry iver there?

ETA:
Lol in the 1 minute i typed this response i've got beaten to the punch about five times

that is a pretty odd video. Did you hang around until it left?

It looks as if its on the water so I would say its probably a ship or boat .

Ok changed thread title to reflect. Thanks

Interesting and in the area recently

WHITSTABLE, England – A meteorite in southern England sparked a rescue mission after shocked onlookers thought they were seeing a plane crashing into the sea.

Firefighters were called out after a pilot and a fisherman both reported that an aircraft had fallen into the water in Whitstable, but the search was called off when no trace of the plane could be found.

A spokesman for the Kent Fire and Rescue Service told the Kent Messenger, "Two independent calls came in reporting a plane had crashed off the coast. Even a pilot who was looking out of his window reported a plane was in distress and had gone into the sea."

He added, "Fishermen in the area also reported seeing something, but in the end nothing was found, and it was put down to a meteorite falling to Earth."

Hundreds of meteorites streaked across the sky this weekend as the Earth passed through a cloud of dust left by behind by a comet called Giacobini-Zinner.

Fox lol so it definately was not an meterorite

I would think an large ship, tanker but not sure....

Kind Regards,

EDIT to add OP like the title change made me laugh thank you

It just looks like a large boat with lights sitting on the water.
Its almost right on the horizon line, and obviously not floating in the air.

Whats the big deal?

I live very close to this area. It's impossible NOT to see loads of ships, especially at night.

Most maritime traffic between the Atlantic Ocean and the North and Baltic Seas passes through the Strait of Dover, rather than taking the longer and more dangerous route around the north of Scotland. The strait is the busiest international seaway in the world, used by over 400 commercial vessels daily. This has made safety a critical issue, with HM Coastguard maintaining a 24-hour watch over the strait and enforcing a strict regime of shipping lanes.

Shipping in the English Channel



Whistable is just 'round the corner' from Dover.

It could be a lighted oil drilling platform that is stationary or being towed.

Yes Whitstable has a fishing industry so I would think its likely a large fishing trawler lit up like a Christmas tree.

The lights are helluva blindingly bright even from a distance. If that's a fishing boat, I'll bet even in winter the men are wearing shorts and not much else.

That is clearly a boat/ ship, as a sailor i have seen this a million times.
All the lanterns are there, plus working light, you can see the reflection of the lights in the water surounding the wessel.

An odd coincidence in the same area in October: A Ufo? or Meteorite? had gone into the sea. Pilots and fishermans witnesse the event....
