UFO sighting in Shanghai!

The hard working staff at Shanghaiist once again takes you to the front lines with a report of a UFO sighting over Hongkou and Yangpu districts on the night of April 12. According to the report (in Chinese), the UFO was seen by many residents, and pictures subsequently spread over the internet, starting (exclusively?) from the Fudan University BBS (they are in that area). The question remains as to why any advanced civilization would pimp their intergalactic ride in a way that suggests cheap Christmas lights hold some kind of supreme aesthetic value on their planet.
