[Illusion]

BAFFLING footage of bright lights dashing through the sky during the day has been posted on YouTube.
The clip shows tiny circular specks of white light flying at high altitude over London in broad daylight.
Against the clear blue sky, five of the UFOs are seen speeding in the same direction before disappearing behind a cloud.
A much larger glowing disc then emerges from behind the same cloud.
It hovers slowly in a tight circle as other small specks follow the path of the others — before vanishing back behind the cloud.


The mysterious "mother ship" then returns to view briefly before finally disappearing.
Meanwhile, a small crowd gathered near the Radio 1 studio in Great Portland Street, West London, to watch the spectacle and film it on their mobiles.
The footage was uploaded on Friday.

In the description, the video's author wrote: "Right - took over a week to get it....but finally managed to get these critters on camera on a clear day, and even get a close-up.
"It seems to be attracting quite a crowd now when they appear. Can anyone explain what on earth these lights are please?"
Beneath an earlier video, in which similar specs of light can be seen less clearly on a cloudy evening, the same user wrote: "Been seeing these odd lights over Central London (BBC Radio 1 building) randomly for the past week. Managed to get them on camera yesterday evening."

I recall a statement made in the documentary series Through the wormhole, hosted by Morgan Freeman.
The statement was that there are more stars in our universe than there are grains of sand on all the beaches of the world. Astounding statement, No idea how to verify that. But if that were true, I feel pretty good that we are not alone.

The first photo is of lights in a building. The video seems very amazing though.

That's really debate-able.

I'm a proponent of extra-terrestrial life, but the chances of there being another intelligent(Not that humans are all that smart, but I digress) species alive at the same time we are is pretty slim.
Anything farther from the center of the galaxy will be more advanced than we are, anything closer will be less advanced.

Same goes for how close to the centre of the universe we are.
The chances of an alien species coming into contact with us before we go extinct is somewhere between slim, and fuck all.

I live in London and if that were so, it would have been in all our local papers and on the news. Wish it was real, would have been quite a spectacle
