Published: Today

A FLEET of UFOs in formation has been photographed — on Google.
The nine silver spheres hover above a row of shops, including a Coral bookies, on the internet giant’s new Street View service.

Sun reader Faye Sharpe, 18, discovered them while viewing her neighbourhood of Wolverley Street in Bethnal Green, East London.

Faye said: “I was checking out the road to see if I could spot my mates. I thought it looked very strange and zoomed in.

“I thought it was some planes but they look pretty close together for that. Maybe they are UFOs.”



Fascinated ... expert Nick Pope

CHANNEL 5
Yesterday baffled ufologist Nick Pope said he was “very excited” by the image, which he labelled “truly fascinating”.

He added: “It appears to show nine objects flying in near perfect formation. About the only thing I know that can do this is the Red Arrows — and it’s not them.”

Mr Pope, who used to investigate sightings for the Ministry of Defence, said: “I’ve run through the list of possibilities that normally explain these things, but I can’t find an answer.”

Yesterday The Sun visited the street to talk to locals about the mysterious find. Holly Riding, 19, said: “It’s definitely weird.”



Karishma Daswani, 22, added: “The fact that they are flying in formation is very strange.”

Oriele Calvert, 44, said: “This is definitely the strangest thing I’ve ever seen in Bethnal Green.”

Street View, on Google Maps and Google Earth, shows 360-degree views of 25 cities throughout the country.

Hi Antaletriangle,

I'm not too sure about this one. Look at the image. It has definately been doctored at the top part of the lamp post, a very crude cut, just beloww the height of the 'UFOs'.

Don't forget we're talking about the Sun newspaper here. Not exactlyone of the most informative news sources around, unless you're in to bra sizes.

Best regards,

Steve

That cutting on the lamp post is very common with google street view as the cameras on the car are there to make a collage of images to make a whole picture.

My bet is one aircraft caught on multiple cameras and the stitching just makes it look like a formation.
