While Americans were getting psyched over fireworks on the 4th of July, people in the Polish city of Gdansk were taking flicks of this flashing-light saucer that hovered over their heads during the annual Festival of Stars. New York designer Peter Coffin, along with London’s Cinimod Studio, built the 23 foot-long alien craft as part of a project called “Untitled (UFO).”

The one of a kind air machine is powered by 6 kilowatts of energy, controlled by SMS text messaging technology and features 3,000 LED lights. Somebody needed to teach those X-Files aliens how to stunt. To see the flying beast in motion as the Polish saw it on the 4th, check the video after the jump.
