UFOs crashing into wind farms: has the Guardian solved the mystery?

The Guardian may be able to shed a little light on the mysterious
events, attributed to UFOs by today's Sun, at a Lincolnshire windfarm
that left a 290ft high turbine mangled

"UFO HITS WIND TURBINE," the Sun proudly splashed today. "Dorothy
Willows – who lives half a mile from the scene of the hit-and-run – was
in her car when 'strange lights' loomed in the evening sky," continued
the Sun. "She was among dozens who spotted the mysterious flashing
orangey-yellow spheres over Lincolnshire..."

The Guardian News & Media director of digital content, Emily Bell, would
like to make it clear that her family had no part in damaging any of
those 65ft multimillion-pound turbine blades - but she can help explain
those "massive balls of light with tentacles going right down to the
ground", as one onlooker described them to the Sun.

Those mysterious lights were actually the fireworks Emily's brother Tim
had bought at the local garden centre for the 80th birthday party of dad
Peter Bell. "It was a medium-sized fireworks display with absolutely no
ballistics, and the fireworks were mostly dropping over my parents'
house. But we were laughing that we could have broken the wind turbine,"
jested Emily.

"There we are in the middle of a scoop and we're beaten to it by a red-
top tabloid," said Emily's mother Bridget, 74. Emily's husband Ed Crooks
was also beaten to the story – and he's the energy editor of the
Financial Times.

As roman candles, chrysanthemums and splitting comets rained down over
Lincolnshire that night, the good folk of Louth must have thought it was
Christmas all over again. And in the absence of any rational explanation
– an aircraft collision, meteorite or catastrophic material fatigue – we
are left with the unsatisfactory possibility that it was an alien
collision.

"I reckon something the size and weight of a cow would do it," Dale
Vince of energy firm Ecotricity told BBC Radio 4's Today programme. "If
there is a rational explanation – we will come up with it."

Perhaps he should give Emily a call?
