Strange Light activity over Porirua, Wellington, New Zealand 14 July 2021 - UPDATE -

"SuperSup Nguyen" has posted an interesting video on YouTube showing a strange light formation moving or changing in the night sky over Porirua, Wellington, New Zealand 14 July 2021.


SuperSup Nguyen says "This cluster of UFOs was captured on John Burke Drive, Porirua, New Zealand on 14th July 2021 looking toward the south east direction. From the distance, i guess they were somewhere down the south island. This is not the first time i see the similar source of lights in this direction."


 

These strange lights are eerily similar to lights seen in the same town nearly a year ago, reported 3 August 2020. A post in the NZ Herald says;

"UFO over Porirua? Mysterious hovering lights stun locals. Video / Theodora Faafia

It was in the early hours in Porirua when Theodora Faafia left home and spotted three lights hovering up in the dark skies above the town.

Faafia was with her cousin and they both spotted the lights and wondered what it was. She filmed them on her phone for a few seconds then posted on the local group, to see if anyone knew what they could be.

"Sooooo as I was leaving home this morning, we spotted these three big lights just hovering over Porirua City. Anyone have a clue what it could be?" she wrote.

A Porirua local says she spotted three "creepy" lights hovering over the town, August 2020
 

One person in the comments said they saw it too but no one had a definitive theory on what the lights were.

Faafia says she "has no idea" what the lights could be.

"I just thought it was strange and so did my cousin because it wasn't plane lights or anything it was just still in the sky," she told the Herald.

"We didn't hang around as I had to drop my cousin off to town for work so we just continued to drive and kept watching it as we drove till it was out of our sight. By the time we got back to Porirua it was daylight."

UPDATE

Reddit users have identified the exact location and have matched the video with google earth images. It would appear that the "hill" in the video is actually the roof of a house, and there is a larger hill behind which looks like sky in the video. There is a track traversing the hill, so it is likely the lights are just lights from a vehicle traveling up or down the hill track.

Bright, fast moving ball-shaped object caught on video during a thunder storm over US navy base in Yokosuka City, Japan, 7 July 2021

Japanese YouTuber "いろいろやってみる、ぶぐがんす" has posted a video showing a bright ball-like object moving erratically during a thunderstorm over a US navy base in Yokosuka City, Japan, on 7 July 2021.

 

The witness says "I happened to discover a UFO while shooting thunder ⁉︎ I think it's real!" 

They continue "It looks like it is flying at a fairly high speed while shining. The navigation light is not blinking because it is not an airplane or helicopter."

The object in question appears after about 1 minute, 20 seconds into the video;


Analysis

It is probably not a coincidence that this object appears during a thunderstorm - that is a clue. It is highly likely that this is a video of the very rare phenomenon of ball lightning.

From wikipedia, "Ball lightning is an unexplained phenomenon described as luminescent, spherical objects that vary from pea-sized to several meters in diameter. Though usually associated with thunderstorms, ball lightnings are said to last considerably longer than the split-second flash of a lightning bolt, and are a distinct phenomenon from St. Elmo's fire

Conclusion - Probably Ball Lightning

Student photographs object with bright lights hovering over the sea before "it sped off" near Teignmouth , Devon, UK, June 2021 - UPDATED July 2021

A student says he was left shocked after spotting a large UFO hovering "for ten seconds" over a Devon seafront - before it sped off into the distance. 

 

Photos he took appear to show four bright lights in a triangular-shaped formation lingering in the night's sky.

The mature student said within seconds of taking the pictures, the object sped off into the distance.

Matthew said: "I couldn't help but see it.

"My kitchen window gives a great view of the sea so when it came across the horizon

"It wasn't moving like a plane would.

"It was moving a lot slower and went up and down for a bit before hovering a good ten seconds.

"It stayed in one spot long enough for me to pull out my phone and get those snaps.

"Then it quickly zoomed off at some speed and I couldn't see it anymore.

"The light was really bright."

"I just didn't know what it could be so I decided to take a picture.

"I'm not quite losing my marbles yet.

"But it's hard to place it so I suppose it is an unidentified flying object."


Update

Local photographer Matthew Blythe also took a photograph from the same location looking out to see that night. He used a proper camera, not a phone camera. What he photographed was the moon poking through a gap in the clouds. As we can see, the image is identical to the "UFO" image taken by Mathew Evans.

Conclusion

Moon through a gap in the clouds

Bright disk or cigar shaped object recorded flying erratically over Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park, Brazil 29 May 2021

David Smolinski has provided a rather poor video showing a white or bright disk-like object flying in an erratic manner over Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park, Goiás, Brazil on 29 May 2021.


David states "object apparently shaped like a glowing disk and it moves quite quickly and looks like it had some sort of trouble in flight and looks like it would crash behind these mountains".


 

Analysis

The video is so poor we cannot make any detail in the object so cannot really say what it is. Intriguing all the same.
