A woman who believes she filmed a UFO was delighted this week when she
saw footage very similar to hers.
The photo taken by Yvonne Staines at the River Festival in
July
Pictures in The Sun newspaper this week bear an uncanny
resemblance to footage recorded by Yvonne Staines and published in Bedfordshire
on Sunday in July.
Mrs Staines featured in BoS in July when she
approached us with some remarkable video.
At that month's River Festival,
Mrs Staines had used her mobile phone to video a ball of light as it moved
across the night sky.
The ball of light appeared to shoot a beam of red
light at the ground, although Mrs Staines did not see this until she watched her
recording.
In the month after we published her account, various
suggestions were put forward to explain her sighting.
The letter from the MoD to Mrs Staines
The most popular
was that Mrs Staines had recorded illuminated balloons set off at the festival,
although this explanation could not account for the red beams.
Mrs Staines
reported her sighting to the MInistry of Defence, who dismissed her sighting on
the grounds that there was no threat to national security.
Mrs Staines
wrote back saying: "The sightings could potentially pose a risk to national
security.
"I certainly wouldn't want to be standing under the red beam
that came out of these craft when they were being fired." The MoD did not
reply.
Now a near-identical sighting has happened in Lancashire, again
filmed on a mobile phone and again the person who recorded it saw no red beam at
the time.
On seeing The Sun's pictures this week, Mrs Staines said: "The
same red beams were on the footage but again these were not visible to the naked
eye.
"The MoD was not interested in my sightings at all and dismissed it,
but what will it take for them to start taking this seriously? "I am relieved
that somebody else has seen these as some people have accused me of editing the
footage."
