As you may know today everyone is now saying the recent ufos over the UK were just lanterns. However i would find it hard to belive that a lantern would fly straight under a helicopter (as it did in Cardiff) and then fly away at tremendous speed as reported by experienced military staff.
As Nick pope recently commented the 'The MoD and Civil Aviation Authority still need to look at this'.

“They need to interview witnesses, analyse the film and check both civil and military radar to see if any unusual activity was logged.
“An important factor is that this was shot from a military base — and the military tend to make good witnesses.
“This object seems to be pulsing through virtually the entire spectrum and that’s unusual. It’s not something an ordinary aircraft or satellite would do, and it’s too slow to be a meteor or a shooting star.”
