Hello All, I'm struck by a corelation it seems, between some of these sightings and a piece of 8mm footage I saw on local TV here in the UK back in the early 70's, maybe other list members in the Northwest of England, ( Granada TV area ) might just remember it. A Manchester family, Mr - Mrs and 2 children had been on a summer camping holiday and whilst on Salibury Plain the father had had to make a very early (around 4-30,5am) call of nature and on returning to the tent was presented by an amazing sight. In the distance he saw a large number of glowing orange balls of light moving up and down slowly from ground level to the cloud base a few hundred feet above. He watched them for a few moments and then rushed into the tent to wake the rest of the family AND grab his super 8 cine camera. He only had a couple of minuites of film left, this he shot, the specticle went on for aprox 30 mins before the objects dispersed. The film showed the objects quite clearly in the distance, moving both up and down and of various sizes, as I remember, the "official" explanation was that, as much of Salibury Plain is used by the Ministry of Defence the lights were nothing more than flares being used in manuvers, but since when do flares float up and down, and though it was very early it was mid summer and quite light, ie there was no need of flares for illumination etc, signalling maybe but for 30+ minuites?. I've often kicked myself mentally for not making notes about this report, and if any list member does have more details regarding this incident they would be gratefully received. On a personal note, my feelings regarding the objects shown in the film I saw were that whatever they were I felt they were more likly to be some very unusual "natural" phonomena and not an "ET" instigated event, they could also throw some light on the mystery of those pesky crop circles, many of which are discovered in and around the same area. Food for thought: On a final "biblical" note, watching the film clip at the time, I was reminded of the old testament story of "Jacobs Ladder", for angles read orange lights/orbs, ? have these events been seen in the middle-east too ?.
