THE Daily Echo needs help in solving
Hampshire's latest UFO mystery.
Just a day after it was revealed 42
UFOs have been spotted in the county
in the past ten years, a new video has
emerged of a strange object in our
skies.
The footage was captured by company
director Will
Campbell on
Monday, May 5, and
shows a cubeshaped
object floating
high above
houses in Shirley.
"I was at home
when my housemates
Mina and
Simon spotted the
object out the window.
We could barely
see it with the
naked eye, so I got
my video camera
out to zoom in to get
a clearer picture of
the object," the 28-
year-old said.
"It appeared to be
a black, almost
cube shaped. At
first it was slowly
rising, but then
seemed to stabilise at an altitude and
move away into the distance. We could
see it for about 15 minutes, before it
eventually got too far away."

Mr Campbell was confident the
object wasn't a kite as there was
"absolutely" no wind that day.
"Its large arc across
the sky also means
that it was not tethered
to the ground in
the way an advertising
blimp would be.
The shape of the
object wasn't round
like a weather balloon.
"I rather hope that
one of the readers of
the Daily Echo might
be able to shed some
light on what the
object was."
Mr Campbell said he
believed extra-terrestrial
life was out there,
but that he was very
sceptical of most UFO
claims.
"I don't believe that
there is a great deal of
UFO activity and I
think that the vast majority of sightings
can be explained. There are however
a few sightings which are very difficult
to explain."

I was playing football at Goals in Milbrook and we all saw this too. Its obviously not aliens but would be interested to know what the hell it was? The reason why it was odd is because it was stationary for so long just hovering. It did look like a kite but it was too high for that and seemed to have a white light on it. It looked more triangular from where I was but also 3d.

UFO doesn't mean alien - you do know that, don't you?

yesterday someone pinched my bicycle, maybe it was aliens...
then again maybe it was just the idiots living down the road.
and i think they are 'unidentified'. i dont think there is a word that quite describes them.

It might be a chinese lantern, they have coloured versions which are let of during the day. Some coloured lantern videos can be seen at www.skylanterns.net

I have seen this too. a few times over the past three to four months.. I have seen something in the sky very similar. once in the evening, I tracked it to Rownhams then lost it in the atmosphere, once in millbrook on the main road I saw one again heading across marchwood military base area. Its wierd.. maybe some sort of British Military experiment but whoknows what it is.. its self propelled I think.. it moves on its own anyway.. any ideas let me know.

i saw this object in the sky too. i got out the binoculars and it was more of a pyramid shape from my angle. and it had some kind of light at the bottom, which looked more like a flame. i couldn't see any kind of basket at the bottom so ruled out an hot air balloon. but who knows!!!!

coming back from town going over the flyover a couple of weeks ago we saw this and it is unexplainable. i dont think its a kite as it was stationary there was no line or anything and as for a chinese lantern arent they bright colours?

I know who is responsible for this and he is a nutter who has too much time on his hands and he needs to go back to work selling gas to aliens on Neptune.

I am the owner of Aliensthetruth.com. Many people have reported objects like this in the past. I have a photograph taken near Area 51, a secret military installation, in Nevada which shows a similar object.

God is telling me or warning me about it. I believe highly!
