TWO RAF Typhoon jets that rocked five counties with their sonic boom were at the centre of a UFO riddle last night.

The scrambled warplanes were seen intercepting a mystery object hovering over Somerset.

Dad-of-three Richard Bird, 38, told how the supersonic jets probed the “strange sock-shaped” entity above his garden in Bath.

He said: “They were having a really good look.”

Fellow local Sean Whyte described the UFO as “white and rocket-shaped”.

Another witness said: “The jets kept circling it. It was very strange.”

The Met Office last night said in the wake of the Typhoons being scrambled on Thursday that the object was NOT a weather balloon.

Sequence of close ups from my photos of the #BathUFO taken at about 6pm on 12/4/12. The full high res originals (complete with exif info).

There is no camera shake on most of them, nice fast shutter speed of 1/400 speed and the latter shots were taken from a tripod with remote lens release. Does the thing change shape? It was very far away and so changes could just be optical or atmospheric aberrations.

I can believe it. Where I live in the B.C interior I would say it was a U.S.military jet shook the house while flying low and over it. When it turned around and came back heading south I could see no ID markings was painted gray and had a pontoon below each wing.

Latter in the week a friend who works at the airport said the word is a jet was chasing a U.F.O. LOL. Why they even bother...

It's the cover story that got my interest.

It's weak.

I believe we are from the same area of the Kootenays. The boom shook our house and my husband ran outside and did see the low flying jet on our side of the border.

Interesting...It certainly was a waste of jet fuel Heartflowers
