OK, if they weren't UFOs, then what were they?

About 100 people (some carrying digital cameras - as most people seem to do these days) witnessed five unidentified flying objects over Straford, UK.

Here is the link to the story with a pic in the background.

Has anyone noted what was picked up on radar at the time? Any thoughts by the British Government? Strangely enough, there was neither civilian or military air traffic at the time of sighting, so the report is interesting.

Sightings of this nature seem to be growing, or at least getting more attention nationally. And Governments seem to be taking it more seriously. Yesterday, a formal process was released to the media regarding how to handle UFO sightings in New Zealand.

So is the truth out there, or is it all in our imagination?
