Northern Lights? Aliens? There is a more earthly reason why the strange hue has illuminated the sky.

A strange, pink glow illuminating the skies over East Yorkshire has led people to believe they had seen the Northern Lights.But the earthly reality is a little less exciting... unless you're an avid gardener, that is.

The Plant Raisers firm, which employs up to 100 people, has been at its Howden premises, off the M62, for years.Mr Denham said: "Because of the energy crisis we had to invest heavily in LED lights. But it means the light is pink and not white that people saw before."Ruby Hilson, an amateur astronomer who lives nearby, described the first time she saw the illumination."There was this massive pink light. It looked like a disc," she said.
