    All those orange lights you saw floating around the sky tonight. Doing manouvers that are not possible with current aviation technology, Amazingly bright craft 20 miles away traveling over past you at unimaginable speeds etc etc

    They were Chinese Lanterns the size of a beach ball 500ft away....mkay! :D










    Lots set off at midnight tonight. Watched them with Binoculars. No ifs, No Buts. Chinese Lanterns. Full Stop!! :D

    BTW HAPPY NEW YEAR ASTRO PEOPLE!! :D

    Did it all of a sudden start to grow faint before disappearing as if warping off into deep space at warp speed??














    yeah, that'd be the flame burning out :D
