UFO mystery unravelled
7:22am Sunday 13th July 2008
Comments (4)A UFO mystery has been solved after an Edgware woman was deluged with calls from interested stargazers.
Swati Singh, 40, filmed a mysterious light hovering outside her bedroom window on Sunday, June 29, suspecting it could be something out of the ordinary.
She got in contact with the Harrow Times and we featured her spooky footage of the light as it hovered eerily over Stanmore Park on our website.
Several people called her and explained that the light is Jupiter, which can be seen at certain times of the year.
She said: "Jupiter can be seen from Earth when looking southwards.
"I got excited because it was a bright light hovering and I couldn't explain it.
"People are not aware that Jupiter can be seen, and I think it is interesting."
Mrs Singh filmed the light on two more occasions after her initial sighting, and she is now going to be interviewed by Channel 4 for a documentary about UFO sightings.
She said: "Apparently 95 per cent of sightings can be explain, which is something I didn't know before this."

No need for aliens, fairies, angels, demons, or even aircraft.
hmmm ... a "rational" explanation? Or, a more acceptable explanation, because it fits into what we already know? The U in UFO means Unknown.

Also, Kudos to Mrs. Singh for being open-minded enough to accept a valid explanation when it is offered - I have seen many cases where witnesses refuse to accept rational explanations when they exist.
