UFO Sighted above Southampton

Saw a strange object in sky above Southampton (western docks end)

I'm not a big believer in "Aliens" per se, but I just wanted to know if anyone had any idea what this could be?

We were discussing the possiblity that it could be a baloon or something, but it was too high, too slow and too weird a shape to be one we reckon. It seemed to just completely vanish about 10 minutes later....

Zoomed pictures of it can be seen at... http://www.flickr.com/photos/26764216@N04/

We think this was a chinese lantern... saw one of a similar shape drifting low in the sky last week.. weird cuboid shape... The Southern daily echo had numerous comments re the UFO and seems pretty conclusive it was a lantern... Ultra cool shape and size tho, and the height of this one was phenominal!!!

Interesting and errie , i too see an object in 98 but it was moving low and quite slow, we certainly have sumthing happeneing very much so in the sky's and i am just wondering if these objects have anything to do with chemtrails

theres other videos of this about, everyones mystified. Airtraffic control would not let an unmanned baloon up, especially in Shirley near southampton airport, so we can rule that out. And it shape rules out a baloon or kite.

The real question is: What exactly happened to it m8? It just vanished?!? or it just travelled out of sight?
