A stargazer claims he spotted a UFO hovering over Victoria Park last month - and he's got photo evidence to prove it.
The St Helens man, who asked not to be identified, says he saw a glowing disc in the sky over the North Road entrance top the park.

He said: "The object was at a height of roughly 500 feet and appeared to the naked eye as the size of a small coin held at arms length.

"It looked like a brilliant glowing fireball and looked like the underneath or belly of the object. It was circular in shape - the centre was a brilliant whitish glowing colour - and looked like its edges were on fire with flickering orange flames.

"I watched it for several minutes and it would appear stationary for about 15 seconds, blink out, then instantly re-appear in a different part of the sky. I must have witnessed this manoeuvre at least ten times.

"It also fired out what looked like a pulsating light several times but was completely silent. But the last time it blinked out was the last time I saw it. It just disappeared."

He added: "This was no aeroplane, police helicopter or balloon. I've never seen anything like it before. It is easy to get carried away with stories of little green men or flying saucers, but if we can land on the moon and send spacecraft to distant planets, then who's to say that there isn't other intelligent life forms in outer space doing the same thing?"

I'm sorry to disappoint but the 'ufo' is a sky lantern. Type sky lantern into Google and you will see what i mean.

omg...was that another chinese lantern explanation??
LOL
Martian Martin...I can't believe you took the time out of your life to utter such simplistic nonsense...talk about old school. I'd like to know what little voice in that simplistic head tells you to use chinese lanterns as an explanation? Maybe expand your knowledge on other topics like upgrading to grade three, something other than chinese lanterns?, maybe even try entering another search topic like: "how not to be in denile", "misinformed","simplistic"...
Bud eveyone from astronauts,presidents,cops,soldiers, politicians,ministers...on and on...all report credible ufo sightings looking and behaving nothing even remotely like lanterns.Ad to it the over 1 million ufo website existing today,all because of chinese lanterns...well. Then along comes Mr Martini to clear it all up for us,you may be interested in knowing how just how insignificant the chinese lantern explanation is when type ufo into google.
Martin I'm sure there's a HUGE market for chinese lanterns in around Mt St Helens LOL. Umm,Marlin?...ever check if even possible to buy a lit up, fire chinese lantern anywhere near Mt St Helens, didn't think so...
...sorry I'm sometimes astounded at the stupidity of some people,and their children who pretend to know anything regarding ufology. They are witnessed all over earth by millions without any earthly explanation,by anyone...deal with it.

Hi, saw a similar object in the sky on a thursday in March at 7-00pm just before rugby training, 2 other players observed it with me. Glowing object appeared to the left of the club, hovered, flew over the clubhouse and turned east. Was around for about 2/3 mins.

I saw a UFO in November 2009 over my house and again I saw two UFO`s that were circling each other over Newton Road a week later.
I have them on video.
