Old files have been released by the Ministry of Defense regarding information about possible UFO sightings, and one of the files contains information about Stansted Airport.

Stansted Airport recieved 7 calls from the public after they spotted a strange object in the sky on June 30th 1990 around 2.40am.

One person that saw the object in the sky was a member of the RAF and his uncle while they were fishing, why they were fishing at 2.40am is unknown to me, but he described the object as having “an oblong front, lit up with searchlights, flat around the back with two red lights to the rear”, he also said that it had “no engine noise” even though he said that it could have been no more than 200 yards from him.

When the man was questioned about what happened, he said it was “just sitting there over the top of me, no noise. It sat about 10 minutes, the lights went out and then it disappeared.”, also, “It didn’t shoot off – it just disappeared”.

The member of the RAF was one of the seven who called the airport that night, and he called to see if anything strange had happened, he was informed that he had been the 7th person to phone the airport that night about the possible sighting.

The report about the sighting was handed to the Civil Aviation Authority at Gatwick Airport, but no further action was taken.

This one just one of the files that the Ministry of Defense had released containing UFO sightings between 1986 and 1992. However, the chairman of British UFO Research Association, Robert Rosamond, has said that he doesn’t believe that any of the files released actually contain any sitings, he said that every one of them could be explained: “Some are everyday like aircraft, military or civilian, or astronomical phenomena like shooting stars,”.

So, are we alone in the universe? or is it just a military aircraft, I’ll go with option B.
