Some researchers have suggested that rather than being an extraterrestrial craft, the object was actually a top-secret US aircraft named Aurora, something that the United States government denies. Whatever the object was, that the military had an interest in it, as shown by the declassified files.

Wednesday 16 February 1977: at Rhosybol in Anlesey in north Wales, nine children at the primary school see a mysterious object, and make similar drawingsReligious pilgrims in South West England reported seeing a glowing fire-belching "dragon" emerge from the sea, flying into the air, and disappearing into the sky. [2] [ unreliable source?] The two men watched the lights as they moved across the sky and toward the Grangemouth Stadium, itself lit up brightly. As they watched the object hovering over the stadium, they suddenly realized that there was no sound whatsoever coming from it. This eliminated any idea that the lights belonged to the underside of a helicopter. In 1977 this corner of south west Wales became the focus of extra-terrestrial conjecture when the manager of the Haven Fort Hotel woke up at 2.30 in the morning and found an upside-down space ship in her garden, as well as two faceless humanoids with pointed heads. Some of the most extraordinary Celtic Saints heralded from the Dark Ages of Scotland and were reported to have supernatural gifts and powers: One such saint was Cuthbert, born not far from Melrose Abbey around 635 AD. He would witness angelic lights, visions of souls and other celestial phenomena in the skies, eventually summoning him south to his calling as Prior and then Bishop of Lindisfarne Priory in Northumbria, a kingdom in Northern England, but always preferring the hermit’s life. October 1967: 54-year-old Mr Angus Brooks, a former BOAC administrator from Owermoigne in Dorset, was walking at 11:25 on Moigns Down near Holworth, close to the Dorset coast with his two dogs in a force 8 gale and took shelter in a hollow. He then saw a circular translucent craft with a "girder" at the front and three pointing to the rear. The "girders" rearranged to form a cross shape around the central 25ft-diameter disc and then began to spin. Twenty-two minutes later, the "girders" returned to their original position and the craft sped off in a northeast direction. [44]

The five creepiest UFO sightings Scotland has ever seen

Retrieved 5 April 2018.Long connected with Biblical prophesy, it is thought that this structure was assembled to illustrate or restate in some way the Old Testament prophesy of Samson to the Philistines, “Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness” (Judg. 14:14). And to paraphrase this quote as applied in this context, “Out of the strong (Christian), but dead Arthurian line of David comes forth the sweet honey of the industrious worker bees from the competing line of Dan (Mordred).” Another encounter relayed by Halliday in the same book occurred at a little after 10 pm on the 16 th of August 1992 in Bathgate. On the night in question, Mr. and Mrs. Tait saw an “intense green light” moving across the sky from the home. The light appeared to be on a downward trajectory and appeared to crash into the ground somewhere beyond the horizon. May 2004: a 60 metre long cigar-shaped object was seen over Torquay. Local teenagers later came forward to admit the sighting was caused by their toy inflatable airship. [74] December 1987: Philip Spencer (pseudonym), a retired policeman, took a picture on Ilkley Moor, which is claimed [ by whom?] to be of an alien creature, and then saw a white-coloured craft leaving the area. The object in the photograph was examined by Kodak Laboratories at Hemel Hempstead and they decided that the object was not superimposed. This was one of the few British close encounters of the third kind. Under hypnosis he claimed to have been abducted and medically examined. [65]
