A silvery, flashing orb UFO was filmed dipping crazily over the sleepy hamlet of Nuneaton, England recently. What is it?
The video, uploaded to YouTube on Saturday, has no commentary from the cameraman and is light on specifics in the description. But watching the one minute sequence speaks volumes. Whatever it is dashing through the sky, making spectacular looping patterns, it is clearly no conventional aircraft.
An enhanced image of the unidentified flying object doesn't help to reveal what it is. The object is just too far away from the camera. But no running lights are evident and there don't appear to be wings or an exhaust from the "tail" of the unusual object.
In several spots on the video, it appears that the orb actually disappears for a split second. UFO sightings of this kind have become much more prevalent in the last two years or so. Can it be some kind of secret aircraft the government has not disclosed to the public yet?
Whatever this object is, it certainly bears further investigation in order to get at the bottom of the mystery.
Here's the video:

And as it boasts one of the best curry chefs outside India, no wonder the aliens are interested.
"Were you frightened?" the reporter asked.
The woman said, "I was flabbergasted, it's not the sort of thing you see in Dudley every day."
I live in an area that became known as UFO alley in the 1980s because there were so many sighting. I saw a couple myself. A few years ago I got into a discussion with a science writer for a British newspaper who was taking the usual line that "people who believe in UFOs are all crazy.
When I mentioned my own experiences, even though I explained carefull all I had seen was lights in the sky that behaved in ways no aircraft could he started going on about "encounters with little green men"
After I had painstaking explained to him what 'unidentified' means and reminded him I had not seen flying saucers but simply lights in the sky, he asked what I thought they were.
As the GSM networks were being set up at the time and I worked in that business I told him that I was quite happy with "I don't know," but if pressed I'd guess is was some weird atmospheric effect of microwave beams intersecting.
"Well there's you answer, he said, "it was caused by microwave beams crossing." The coup de grace, I told him that a scientific approach would agree with me, the cause was unknown. Microwaves were a possibility but there was no evidence.
Obviously that is not the case in your clip. In many sightings, Graham's view is the right one, it would be incredibly easy for someone moderately skilled in using a video editing package to set up layers that create an impression of depth, but we have no evidence that happened.
Remember though, it is a very human trait to see what we want to see, but we have just as strong an impulse to blind ourselves to that which clallenges our view of reality.
Ghosts are a good example. I know many rational, level headed people who have seen ghosts and am convinced they experienced something very unusual and are explaining as best they can how their minds interpreted it. However, if I feature some whacky story about ghosts on my satirical blog I will get a few responses from regular readers who get really angry at any mention of the subject, as if they have to convince themselves of something.
I've never seen any apparition myself but I've had dreams that seemed disturbingly real when I awoke. The human mind is a strange, mysterious thing.
