Sightings at Seaton Burn
from the Newcastle-upon-Tyne
Evening Chronicle, of June 26:
“Nir. Edwin Vipond, ‘mine host’ at
Moor House Jon, Seaton Burn,
Norisumberland, and his wife, Eileen,
sa“ a fying saucer today,
And before you make a crack
the beer being too strong,’
Nir. Vipond, ‘let me sav that we
cid not imagine this. Tt was quite
tely a flying saucer.” Mr.
and his wife both saw the
nz saucer--time: 2 a.m. today.
‘irs. Vipond told the Lvening
Chronicle: ‘It was a hot night and we
.¢ the beclroorn window open, ‘Then
we heard this loud buzzing noise
ike the high pitched buzzing of a
spinning top. It kept droning on and
on until ] went to the window to see
what was causing it’.
‘l looked up and there, high in
the sky, was the saucer, ringed in an
electric blue light. The whole saucer
seemed to be pulsating up and down.’
“Mr. Vipond, who joined his wife
at the window, added: ‘I could
hardly believe my eyes. The saucer
was moving in am east to west direc-
tion. Then it shot upwards and out
of sight.’
‘the couple feel sure that someone
se may have seen the saucer. Said
Mrs. Vipond:-—*There was a lot of

A reproduction of M. Pierre Leger’s photograph which appeared in Owest France
ef July 2. The photograph was taken at midnight, June 27
iA AY
Within a ten days interval, two inhabitants of
Saint-Remy-des-Monts witnessed a celestial phen-
omenon which could not fail to cause astonishment.
Quest France in its issue of July 2 asks: “SVhat was it?
That is difficult to say. Perhaps it was an artificial
satellite or even an object of extra-terrestrial
origin.”
M. Pierre Ls designer, and his mother were
returcing from a visit to friends looked towards the
sky when ‘fa sort of ball of an impressive white
luminosity’, to quote M.Leger’s own description,
was seen to travel across the sky from the north-
west towards the south-east. M.Leger and _ his
mother were able to observe the object for about
twelve minutes. Then the thing disappeared,
On Saturday, June 27, at about midnight M.Leger
was returning from the cinema when once again he
saw the object which scemed to be hovering and
then advancing very slowly. He rushed into the
S_elii AP. aory 4 rma
Mystery pnotograpn from
rom
i a . :
ia fa ie ce
house, called to his mother and grabbed his
camera. For about twelve minutes they both
watched the object which was clearly distinguished
froin the stars by its great size arid intensity.
“Then I seized my camera and with my shutter
open I followed the convolutions of this object
which moved without any noise whatsoever,” Picrre
Leger explained to the newspaper reporter. The
Ouest France declared that it was unable to offer any
explanation of the phenornenon, though in a capt-
ion to the photograph it describes it as “disturbing.”
It must be born in mind that M.lLeger was
moving his camera with the shutter open so th
path of travel shown in the photograph is not the
truc trajectory. Nevertheless, M.Leger’s remark
that the object was much Jarger than any star is
amply demonstrated by the width of the impression
on the photographic plate.
