The UFO Phenomenon

Mystery lights sighted in New Zealand

Peculiar lights have been spotted over New Zealand in the past few days in three different locations.
In one case a graphics tutor witnessed four orange lights flying soundlessly in formation over Napier and in a remarkable coincidence the cameraman who filmed the 1978 Kaikoura UFO also reported seeing the same lights half an hour later.
Mysterious "orangey and reddish lights" spotted in skies above Napier, Taranaki and Christchurch were a day too late to be Santa's sleigh but could they be UFOs? Reports of strange objects in the sky on Boxing Day have been made in three separate locations, with the first sighting of the moving orange lights in Taranaki on Sunday night.

Huh?? These lights cannot be satellites because how can so many bright orange lights come together at 1 place. And it seems more like the case of some spying plane that makes no noise and remains stealth but if its a spying plane then why its full of lights,,,, LOL ! It may rather be some Unidentified Flying Object. Chinese Lantern .. just one of the many synonyms for Earthlights. Exactly what this is. Yet it is unidentified and flying and a object. Just not alien. Also meant to give a website from scientists who study these light ... and pictures identical to this one on them. Visit Earthligh... [More]

Also meant to give a website from scientists who study these light ... and pictures identical to this one on them. Visit Earthlights Thanks for telling but I already knew the meaning of UFO, they are those flying objects that we are unable to identify and not some alien ship or something that you thought I was pointing at. And thanks for the link !

What baffles me is that just about every morning I expect to wake up to find this stuff all over the news. There is just way too much going on here in NZ for no one to be talking about it. It's too obvious and too frequent for no one to have noticed. Now this I find very odd. This intrigues me just as much as what is going on. As for what is going on; well the experience so far is that every time an assumption is reached, something happens that completely contradicts it. Something beyond strange is going on here folks. I can not help but imagine that this is about to crack wide the **** open f... [More]

Well I'll be. I was in NZ and had a sighting on Boxing day! NZ has much activity. A fault line runs right through both Islands I believe. Travelled along it on my way to Milford Sound I would turn to earth-lights before alien visitors. Damn I love that country.
