Green UFO Photographed Over Historic Norfolk, England Windmill Causes Stir

A green, glowing UFO was photographed over a 19th Century windmill in Norfolk, England recently, causing a little stir in the United Kingdom over whether it was a man-made craft or an alien ship.

Photographer Peter Rye was photographing Denver Mill in Downham Market at night late last month and afterwards discovered the bizarre green object in the sky.

He was taking long-exposure pictures on a tripod of the historic 1853 landmark that is illuminated nightly.

Rye told the British press that he did not hear or see anything unusual while taking the photographs until he went home to King’s Lynn.

The green light was visible on some of his pictures but not all of them indicating that it was not an object on his lens, and it seemed to have traveled from right to left.

The mill is 30 miles from a RAF base, lending speculation it might have been a military craft. Manager of the windmill Lindsay Abel told Daily Mail this week: “It is very strange it has to be said.”

Abel said the structure was used as a navigational tool during World War II.

“The Germans used it in the war when they headed up to the Midlands to bomb,” she said.

“Maybe the UFO looking down saw these strange sails and wondered what the hell it was!”

Made the show completely unbelievable after Gazoo showed up. Aliens in Bedrock...pfft!

Right!

They should have put a black leather jacket on him and let him waterski and jump a shark in Lake Bedrock.

The the term would not have been "Jumped the shark" it would have been "Gazooed."

Yes, I agree with you! And here I used to rely on the Flintstones for my understanding of how things were back in the days when man coexisted with dinosaurs! :)

Makes me wonder sometimes if the military doesn't launch these things just to have a laugh at people's reactions.

You have to admit...Ann Margrock was pretty hot for a cave-dweller.

Lol!

I feel so sorry for the kids of the past 30-40 years. The cartoons have been horrible. They have absolutely nothing going for them. Stupid as stupid can get. No quality imagination. Terrible graphics. Not funny in the least. Frequently political in nature.
