Witness Name: Graeme and Jane Farish
Witness Statement: Just arrived home after picking up Jane from a night out when i saw 4 orange/red lights in the sky. They didn,t appear to be moving fast and there was no sound from them. Both of us watched for a couple of minutes until they disapeared possibly behind clouds. Tried to get a video but the only thing I had on me was my phone but it wouldn’t show them. Does anyone have any ideas as to what they were?

Location of Sighting: Sussex
Date of Sighting: Saturday 6th February 2010
Time: 23:00ish
Witness Name: Steve
Witness Statement: I spotted some sort of bright orange/red light (glow) last night (Saturday). I live on the coast in west sussex, it was travelling at speed from north to south and was fairly low. A saw two pieces break off, one after the other, which fell straight to earth. The remainder looked as if it was going to end up in the channel! I am confused as to what this was as it was travelling almost parallel to the ground and only a few thousand feet up at most. I cannot remember the exact time but seem to remember it being around 10:30 – 11:30pm.
I would be interested to see if anyone else has seen this or if anyone has any clue as to what it was.

Witness Name: daz
Witness Statement: walking home from talkepits looking over kidsgrove it was a clear night i noticed a plane in the distance on the right then as a looked around a saw a bright orange/red ball it moved to the left then dissapeard.

Saw bright orange light move across the sky, there was no noise coming from it. It stopped for a few seconds then moved upwards into the sky. It only took a few seconds to disappear so must have been travelling quite fast. This was around 1900hrs. About half an hour later another two orange lights appeared, witnessed by four people. One of them said the two lights merged into one. Again it disappeared up into the sky, vanishing in a few seconds.
This sighting was over the Dumbarton area.

Each month we receive a large number of eye witness accounts of sightings of single and multiple red and orange light formations in the sky. In many cases it is evident that the most likely explanation would be Chinese Lanterns released in the local area. Due to time constraints a point has been reached where we need to decide whether to completely disregard these types of sightings or not. As a result it has been decided to set up on trial basis this dedicated section to log those eye witness accounts which are considered to be high probability “Chinese Lantern” sightings based on the information provided.Any such sightings received through the “Submit Sighting Form” will initially be posted as a comment in this section. If at a later date supporting information comes to light suggesting the sightings may not be chinese lanterns then the eye witness account will be reposted as a sighting report under it’s county area.The “Orange Light Sightings” are published by month in Volumes of about 40 eye witness accounts.
