Lights in the sky

[ViperScot]

Er, anybody else noticed odd lights in the sky in the Forres/ Nairn area? Or am I finally going mad?!

When I was at Burghead (a couple of miles from Forres) a couple of years ago I saw two bright red lights dashing about the sky. When I mentioned it I was told to keep my mouth shut as they didn't talk about them there.

Maybe a mad idea...but satellites?

Read the top 3 on that link...

This was sort of 'firey' sphere, mainly orange coloured but changing to more whiteish at the front (in terms of the direction it was moving). Odd, very odd...

[ViperScot]

Definitely not a satelite - it wasn't way up in the sky and it was very clear it was sphere-shaped.

Could it have been one of those lanterns you put a candle light in it and it floats away?

Far too big for that and moving far too fast.

We've got a mystery on our hands...

UFO?

It didnt look something like this then?


It could of been moving fast if it was a windy night. it would also explain the random pattern.

A lantern it was not! I know the coast there can be windy but not like 200++ mph!!
