A group of Scottish teenagers were left scratching their heads after spotting a large black orb that swiftly and silently moved across the night sky. According to a local media report, the strange sighting unfolded last Friday evening in the community of Easthouses. Witness Kyle Jackson recalled that he and two friends were walking along a trail near the local high school "when we all glanced up" and noticed a large black orb overhead. The bottom of the peculiar object briefly produced a "red/orange light" before briefly going dark after about five seconds.
Observing that the UFO was "the same size as a plane or bigger," Jackson noted that the object appeared to be "traveling a lot faster" than a conventional aircraft. To that end, the young man argued that the silent nature of the anomaly would seem to preclude it from being a plane or helicopter. He also posited that the object was too big and fast to be a drone. "The whole situation felt surreal, like something out of a movie," Jackson marveled, "even after I had got home I was still in awe."
Since the incident, the teen said, "I did some research and couldn’t find anything close to what we had seen." As such, he indicated that he and his friends now believe they may have witnessed something otherworldly. That said, one possibility not put forward by Jackson is that the UFO could have been an errant balloon, which is a scenario suggested by many skeptical viewers. With that in mind, what do you think the teens encountered last Friday evening? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
