Investigated Reports of UFO Sightings in Sussex

Since the year 2007, there have been hundreds of UFOs being investigated in Sussex, England. And there have been 111 reports of unidentified flying objects seen over the country that have been reported to the force and military officers tagged such reports as serious.

A spokesman told the newspaper The Argus stated that he no longer has an idea how much such reports had cost the county police. He added that calls about UFO sightings are being taken seriously and this made them always in alert mode.

The spokesman also noted that there are also reports wherein Chinese lanterns or falling space debris are mistakenly reported as UFOs. He also mentioned that celestial occurrences such as falling meteors or other space activity also attributed to the mistaken identity of these unidentified flying objects.

As of this year, only one incident about UFOs was reported to the Sussex Police. However, 31 people complained of having UFO sightings in 2010 while there were 35 in 2009.

The National Archives released documents that include a report from an airline pilot in Hellingly who saw an object with the size of a large eagle flying past his house.

There is also a list of UFO sightings kept by the Ministry of Defence in Sussex.
