Family sees UFOs

Mike King emailed the Express saying at least 50 lights headed towards him from Buxted Park.

He said: 'We often see firework displays in that direction.

'These moved directly overhead.

'They appeared to be some sort of lantern under a parachute type of canopy.

'The strange thing was their speed of movement as there was very little wind and there was no sound of any propulsion.

'I would like to know what these really were.

'Has anyone else had any experience or can suggest an answer?'

Several people said they saw more than 60 glowing orbs hovering above the town.

They described them as 'like Space Invaders.'

The sightings follow records of UFOs over Uckfield in May 2002 five years ago when an object with red and green flashing lights was witnessed by several people.
