Stunned onlookers watch as 50 mysterious orange UFOs cross the night sky

Stunned eyewitnesses have described the moment a procession of up to 50 mysterious orange lights flew over their heads.The unexplained lights were spotted from miles away over Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, as they streamed across the night sky for half an hour.

Auberon Hedgecoe, who runs the Braywood Guest House in the town, said: 'They were not planes. These were not balloons. Each one was the size of a building. It was like an armada. There was no sound. If they had been balloons, then they would have had to have been huge and they looked weighty.'

He said the sight last Wednesday night was so extraordinary he woke up his 10-year-old son Barney and his friend Zac, who was staying over, so they could watch the spectacle. Wife Suzi Hedgecoe added: 'I have never seen anything like it. A year ago, my parents who live in Bedfordshire saw lights and said it was inexplicable. My father is an aircraft engineer and he knew they were not aircraft.'

Another witness said: 'They were quite low and they weren't travelling randomly, something was driving them. They looked as if they were going somewhere. Some were flying in a straight line, then there were two behind them, and then another three behind them.' (Daily Mail)
