‘Mysterious’ glowing spiral seems in sky – close to the place potential UFO was noticed in 2024

A man in Cornwall was left shocked after he spotted what seemed to look like a UFO while driving back home on Christmas Day, with a similar incident in 2024

A driver was left stunned after an eerie glowing spiral mysteriously appeared in the sky. Matt Kipling was heading home when he spotted the bizarre phenomenon.

He was baffled by the lights and managed to record a clip after pulling over while on the A30 near Wadebridge, Cornwall. Matt said: “It was a mystery I’ve never seen anything like it.

“I’m not really one for UFOs but it was definitely completely unusual. It was around 6.30pm and I had not long joined the A30 on my way home to Wadebridge.

“It just caught my eye. I pulled the van over in a lay-by and tried to show my mother on FaceTime but unfortunately the phone couldn’t pick it up.

“I then took a video and sent it to her, and she also said it was bizarre and had never seen anything like it. “There was no sound.

“There was no street lighting and it was completely pitch black and no houses near by. I had to get back in the van and drive away because I was in a restricted lay-by. I later sent the video to my partner and friends and they were all surprised.”

The incident took place on Christmas Day, but also occurred in 2024. Another local was left stunned by a multicoloured suspected UFO, also in Cornwall. It was filmed hovering over a scenic estuary and was captured on camera by Charlotte Helyer.

The object seemed to change shape as she watched near her family home, with the silent sphere splitting into five separate parts at one point as it floated above the horizon.

Charlotte said: “We saw a really strange series of lights hovering over the hills in the distance. It was at about 11pm. They floated left and right before seeming to reduce into just two balls of white light that floated away miles into the distance. I would say the distance was about six miles but they were very bright.

“I can’t explain what they might be. They were too bright to be drones.

“And the way they floated off into the distance means any drone controller would have been out of reach. They also did not return and were completely silent. I have no idea what they were.”

The possible UFO was spotted by Charlotte in July 2024.
