ALMOST 100 unidentified flying objects buzzed Britain with a light show, according to stunned witnesses.
Families watched as lights in the sky formed in a flying formation before disappearing upwards into space.
This amazing close-encounter photo was taken by engineer Paul Slight on his mobile phone at around 10.30pm on Sunday.
He was coming home from a day out cycling with friends in Lincoln when they spotted the lights hovering in the sky, moving in different directions before shooting straight up into space.
Darting
Paul, 54, said: “There were 26 of them at first, dodging and darting in between each other like they were playing a game. After that, seven more arrived from the right.
“After five minutes, the flickering yellow objects hung in the air for a second then shot off into the sky.
“I’m not usually a believer but what I saw was really weird.
“As an engineer, my first thought was to find a logical explanation for things but these lights were out of this world.”
Former air hostess Claire Jackson, 40, of Lincoln, said: “They were definitely not aircraft or fireworks.They moved differently.”
Banker Scott Boswell, 37, photographed the UFOs near his home in Hinchingbrooke, Cambridgeshire.
The former soldier and experienced pilot said he spotted more than 100 deep orange solid orbs. Other witnesses said the objects were “the size of houses”.
Phil Hoyle, of the UK-based UFO Investigation Unit, said: “If they were dodging and darting around each other, it would indicate intelligent movement.”
A spokeswoman for RAF Cranwell, near Lincoln, said the base was closed at the time and they had no idea what could have caused the light show.
