Just had a phone call from my dad (who lives in Southwick), telling me about a very strange object in the sky - towards Brighton - around 11.30pm last night.
He went outside to put out some rubbish before going to bed and saw an odd light in the sky, travelling slowly towards the east. He watched it for a while until it remained stationary. He went and got some binoculars and could clearly see that it was quite large, spherical in shape and had beams of light inside it.
He described the surface as 'brain-like'. He fetched my mother and a next door neighbour and they watched it for about an hour, before it slowly disappeared into the sky as a fading point of light.
It was reported to the police who took the details. A while later, he looked out again and noticed several plane (or maybe helicopter) lights in the same area and wondered if they were searching for it.
Anyone else see it?
