It is not known which area of the town it was seen above.
A Cheltenham resident, known as numb3rtv, said the object was completely silent and seemed to change colour from blue to yellow to red.
The resident said: "It was a crisp, clear, very cold night and we saw three or four lights which seemed brighter than the other stars.
"If you looked closer you could make out a few coloured lights, which seemed to be flashing and some of them were moving slowly across the sky, inconsistently. At about midnight we drove up to the masts, which is the highest point in the area and with no city light distraction – we saw over 100 of these.
"All a variety of colours and some moving differently or just disappearing."
The two minutes of video footage can be seen by visiting www.youtube.com and searching for "UFO Cheltenham January".
More than 200 people have studied the footage since it was uploaded to the video-sharing site.

“This story is nearly a year old. Has anyone identified the alien yet? LOL.”

“It is alien ectoplasm on fire. The chromatograph bands match. GCHQ has been monitoring the alien intrusion for some weeks but keeping quiet.”

“WOW!!! I can ZOOM!!! Even with zoom and reading glasses though, I can't see a bally rotor...
I did however take a good look at Lecorches crotch on the way past. Rather disappointed!”

“It's probably a single object, because the lights don't move relative to each other. I'd say a helicopter, too, in which case a flight plan should be logged with aviation authorities, and Staverton... soz, Gloucestershire Airport's radar would have tracked it.
Of course, checking that would spoil the fun.”

“Just for you,smarmyone;
run the video and hit pause at any likely looking time.
Now,place your chin on the desk just in front of the monitor and at the same time grasp each side of the monitor.
Now...slowly pull the screen toward you........................ :-)”

“It's a Heliocopter..Lol.
Stop the vid at 32 secondsish (hit the spacebar wil do it). turn of the google ad and then zoom in by:
Hold the Ctrl button down,it should be bottom left and scroll slowly on the mouse wheel.
You can see there's a rotor in the place you'd expect a rotor to be.
End of Mystery!”

“Just found this on pg 147. Do you remember when we had 10 pages a day?!
Also... As no one has commented of late... Why was it nestled in amongst Decembers news? Maybe they are trying to communicate?
I BELIEVE! This does look more like a lantern though. Pfffft.”
