Mysterious Lights In Sky Tonight?

[Cympil]

I got a call tonight at 10 o`clock from a friend telling me that there were 3 orange glowing lights in the sky and she didn`t know what to think! She hadn`t seen anything like it before. She spotted them over the Meadowdale Estate and they were heading in the direction of the Front Street. They were bright glowing orange and ascending slowly..When i asked what size they were she said `If you compare the size of aeroplane lights to a tennis ball, these were the size of footballs`

She did manage to get a photo of them, although they look like little half moons on it..

Did anyone else see anything or have an idea as to what they are?

Looks like the problems solved! The lass that sent me the photo has just seen that video and she said that`s exactly what they looked like

It`s a wonder that they`re not a regular sighting! Not many people must know about how to make them..well, they do now, so we may get an idea how many folk use this forum by tonight

Funny that you mention this. was heading up to cresswell on Friday with the dergs and to the right of the sun was a really bright spectrum coloured light really intense at one end and and really dark at the other.

It wasn't a rainbow and looked really strange!!!

Got pics of it on the cordless but got no way of transferring them to the computer at the minute!!

the website has started taking on a mind of it's own recently. The machines are taking over.
