Description: The lights entering and exiting the ocean are interpreted by some as large shooting stars that never reach the Earth’s surface and vanish into the horizon; some reports mentioned green, blue and red lights – colors proper to a shooting star as it enters our atmosphere.

Full Report

TENERIFE – A number of phone calls have been received by this newsroom from the Tacoronte sector in northern Tenerife, reporting – not without a degree of nervousness – sightings of strange lights on Tuesday evening. Some of the witnesses have spoken openly of UFOs. Those who claim having witnessed this phenomenon report that even household appliances have died for a few seconds and others report seeing static white lights diving into the Tacorontan coast.

This is hardly the first time that various witnesses report seeing “strange” things in the sky, moving at high speed among the stars or emerging from the bottom of the sea.

According to experts consulted by Canarias24horas.com, the lights are nothing more than satellites, which give the impression of being stars despite their rapid movement. The lights entering and exiting the ocean are interpreted by some as large shooting stars that never reach the Earth’s surface and vanish into the horizon; some reports mentioned green, blue and red lights – colors proper to a shooting star as it enters our atmosphere. As far as what was seen on Tuesday, the evidence points to a series of helicopters which were flying over the area. Two of these late model aircraft were surveying the coastline between northern Tenerife and the island of La Palma.

But what caused the household appliances to fail? The explanation is a simple one, and appears to be connected to the impending visit of Their Majesties the King and Queen of Spain to the Canaries.

This isn’t the first that the passing of a royal motorcade on a highway causes all appliances liable to perceive or emit radio signals to stop working for a few seconds. Refrigerators also shut down. This effect is produced by devices known as signal inhibitors, which mask anything that could represent a safety hazard to a head of state. Iceboxes shut down because they signal inhibitors cannot distinguish between one appliance and another. Even the Internet is disconnected.

Could this be the answer to the experiences of Tacoronte’s residents on Tuesday? We can only say that for the Royal Family’s security detail, shutting off devices at a distance is mere child’s’ play.
