Appearance / Description of Object(s)

I have made written notes, of which must be somewhere, but without them, I can remember that the actual shapes of these things, I couldn't make out and this display happened at night. The bright lights blinded out any clues to their real dimensions. At times during the sighting it seemed that these objects were not infact separate, but one solid mass (especially when it/they moved from flat circular to upright circular postion, in unison!

Size of Object(s)

It is hard to say the size of each one of those objects as they were pretty high up inthe night sky, and their lights totally obsured any measurements, but I would imagine very big! Perhaps the size of a couple of football pitches when they formed the circle, but that can be no measurement of their actual size.

Description of Area / Surroundings

The area surrounding the sighting was most definitely urban, I lived in Millbank, London; opposite MI6 at the time and nearby the banks of the River Thames, not so far from Big Ben, Buckinham Palace and the Houses of Parliament.

Full Description & Details

Were they the search lights of some prankters? Were they secret experiments by national or international government agencies? ...I think neither. The colors they displayed were not for FX, but I believe they corresponded to their speeds; ultra-blue/white = quick- well beyond supersonic speeds, (maybe even, the speed of light) while umbers/reds= slow - motionless speeds.

These crafts were able to come together in V formations and a single upright circle ! I didn't hear a single sound and I wasn't covered in aspect of dust, perhaps though, because they seemed to be several hundreds of feet above me, at angle.

These "lights" numbered 9 - 13? (I can't quite remember); in any case there were more than 5 or 6 of them.

I parked my car on the street in Millbank, London SW1 and looked up toward SE or SW, in the direction of MI6 Vauxhall Bridge and Battersea and saw lights coming together from perhaps SE or SW England. They made manoeuvres in the sky, unknown to any aircraft I've ever seen make. That's why I immediately thought "prankters playing with powerful search lights"? This notion, however, was quickly dismissed when I saw them changed colors, one-by-one from red to orange-yellow then slowly fly off, breaking the motionless upright to flat circular formation that they had previously assumed.

As they flew off slowly, their lights changing from reds-oranges-yellows, their speeds increased; they adopted the V formation again, then changed colors to electric blues (they were pretty high above the ground). I've never before nor after seen any vehicle move at such incredible speeds. Off they went into the southeast or southwest regions of the sky.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

To my mind, the sighting cannot be explained as the moon, birds or clouds, nor as any man-made flying object, and as I've already mentioned the impossibility of search lights that could be controlled by computers to make unconventional maneuvers such as horizontal, virtical, rolls etc. Slow then fast speeds and then disapeared hundreds of miles away into they clear night sky.

Witness Background

I have a master of arts (MA) in media studies, that focused on independent cinema. I worked in film and television as an assistant art director television designer for 13 years. I now live in Japan. So I know the opitcal and mechanical tricks that skilled humans can produce.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Seeing is believing...I had never before seen a UFO, but I never dismissed any claims that they did/didn't exist. People I've spoken to can't believe that, what I saw could have been UFOs...I don't care, but I do know that for them "seeing is believing".

Other Comments

I become interested in the idea of magetic levitation or nuclear powered aircraft and found a book by Paul R. Hill entitled "Unconventional Flying Object ...a scientific analysis" that seemed to corrobrate my sighting and offered an explaination for the strange movements and lights as well as speeds at which these objects flew.
