UFODIMENSIONS NEWS :.   
   MELON-SHAPED YELLOW LIGHT REPORTED FROM DIDIM, TURKEY

filed July 15.07

The possible sighting of a UFO over Didim has been the talk of the resort over the last week – and a new witness has come forward as aresult of the Voices story.

The sighting of a melon-shaped object in a bright sun colour at the top and a yellowish-moonlight colour below by local residents led to the story being read by more than 14,500 people in just six days, including UFO experts in the US and Europe.

The intrigue has been added further by a Voices reader who emailed us in the wake of the strange lights.

Ms Gill Peck, who lives in Yesilkent, said she had first seen the strange lights two weeks ago. She said: “Three of us were sitting on the patio at about 10.30pm, when a huge bright orange light came into view.

“It looked like there was a flame in the middle of the light. It passed over at great speed. It, or a second light, came over again on the same trajectory about a half an hour later. Both of these phenomena were completely silent.”

She added that she then saw the strange lights whipping over Yesilkent the next night.

She added: “Four of us were sitting on the patio when we saw a similar sight the other evening. This time the light was even lower in the sky.

“The only way I can describe it is, that it was almost a pentagonal shape with a slightly curved top. The "flame" inside was really bright. This was also completely silent and travelling at great speed.”

She said: “Logical explanation or not, it was certainly like nothing any of us have ever seen before.”

So is there anything out there. If you saw the UFO or took a picture of the strange lights then give us a call on 0505 851 1943 or 0256 811 4865.

Didim became the UFO sighting capital of Turkey when several people reported seeing strange lights in the skies.

The strange yellowish melon-shaped ball was spotted by the Police Academy in Yesilkent, while regulars at the Ark Cafe Bar, in Hunters Valley, spotted the same UFO-style lights at about 9.30pm last Saturday night.

Phil and Lorraine Quibell said they spotted the strange lights heading towards them but hundreds of metres off the ground as they walked on the Yesilkent road, close to the police academy at about 9.30pm.

They described how the melon-shaped object was moving fast and in a straight line before swerving towards the police academy direction and towards the sea before disappearing over the horizon.

Mr Quibell, aged 52, formerly from Preston, said the object was a bright sun colour at the top but faded to a yellowish-moonlight colour below.

There was no noise coming from it either before or after they had seen it.

He said: “It was something that I had never experienced in my life and I am still trying to explain it away rationally 48 hours after we had seen it.

“But both of us have said that we have never seen anything like it in our lives.”

The UFO-sighting ironically comes nearly 60 years to the day when the unidentified flying object phenomena began.

Mr Quibell said: “There were two guards at the police academy who saw it and they were looking in the air and could not believe it. The object did not have wings or landing lights so it was definitely not a plane.

“It was probably the size of a plane. It is very difficult to explain it. I only wish I had taken my camera with me. I watched the object for what seemed a few minutes but may have been only seconds before it veered away and out to sea.”

Meanwhile, Mark and Alana Weatherall , who were with children Paige and Josh, had been with friends at the Ark Bar when they spotted the bright light over the Yesilkent area at about the same time.

Alana said: “It was like a bright light but nothing like a plane or a helicopter. It seemed to hover for a number of seconds and burn like a white ball of light and then it just faded out altogether.”

Mark added: “What surprised us was that it seemed to go vertically up from its original position. It was a weird experience but it definitely wasn’t a plane. It must have been a UFO.”
