A UFO sighting claim has once again been made in the UK, with a mystery object now being photographed hovering above a magnificent stately home in Hertfordshire.
The picture of the flying shape was clicked hovering over the house at Hatfield, near Welwyn Garden City.
It was Chris Middleton, of Welwyn, snapped the mystery object during a a visit to the Jacobean house and garden, the home of the 7th Marquess of Salisbury.
"It made no noise and I didn't see it until I put the image on my computer. If you sharpen the image and zoom right in you can see its no normal aircraft and you can see a red heat source behind it," the Telegraph of London quoted him as saying.
"I think it's impossible for there not to be something like that out there - the universe is so vast. He had the intriguing image examined by professional photographers - and none of them could explain it," he added.
Richard Wiseman, a professor of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, who has an international reputation for research into the paranormal, said: "It's very difficult to tell what it is because it is tricky to know how far the object is from the camera. I guess that it could be a bird or a paraglider in the distance, or a small piece of dust or debris very close to the lens. Either way, I don't think Hatfield House should be bracing themselves for a close encounter of the third kind quite yet."
