UFO mystery
4:10pm Friday 17th October 2008
IT LOOKS like a case for X-Files duo Scully and Mulder.
These mysterious lights were spotted hovering over Norton, near Malton, by Gail and Richard Denney.
Gail, of Springfield Close, said: “We saw the first one at about 7.15pm which appeared for about five minutes and then disappeared. We then spotted the three lights which are on the photo at 9.40pm. They came from the same direction as the first one (Langton Road area) and again disappeared. Then at 10.17pm I saw another two lights.
“They went up slowly, so they weren’t fireworks, and they were very bright. They flickered like little street lights in the sky then just fizzled out.
“They did not make a sound, so they definitely weren’t a plane. We thought at first they could have been weather balloons, but they didn’t move. I’m not saying they were UFOs, I just don’t know what they were.” Mr and Mrs Denney saw the lights last Saturday. “We were just hoping someone else may have seen the lights and knew what they were,” said Gail.

More than likely an aircraft from one of the bases.

More as 1.400 times we get in the german UFO-Organization CENAP.de reports like this alone in this year. But the mystery is simple in the solution: Please go to YouTube and under die searchworth Sky Lanterns you will find many videos of this "UFOs". Ricepaper and hot air as small hot-air-balloons. A beautifull sight in th night-sky und die next round of pseudo-UFOs you can seen that weekend.

I do not think that these lights in York are anything to do with these rings but I thought I would tell you anyway.

INTO GOOGLE BROWSER-You will see the extent of Orange/Red Spheres being filmed & witnessed very close
to Norton on the Yorkshire Wolds.
These are not sky lanterns.They move without sound,no vapour trails,
do not move like conventional aircraft.
This is happening nationwide-again google on UFo in Google news.you will see the reports in different regional newspapers & on you Tube.
Google and put in 'The Disclosure Project Ufo's' and watch the videos of senior military officers saying exactly what they have seen & know.
There needs to be full disclosure of what is invading our skies.
In my firm opinion it is extra terrestial and many people believe
these spheres are becoming more common because they wish to be seen by us.
Ed Mitchell Senior NASA Astronaut
has said that he knows that ET's have been visiting Earth for over 60 years and that he has been briefed on this and been part of the cover up.
