| Remarks | I saw this object; it wasn't a shooting star (I've seen lots of them) It was large & orange. It was around 9.15pm but I can't remember the day. I am guessing the date, but the time would be about right at I was taking my dogs out for bedtime toilet. It disappeared behind a cloud, but I don't think there was a terminal flash. |
