| Name | Alastair M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Seen at dusk, but in fair light. Sky to north was covered by low cloud, below 1000feet, maybe below 500ft.(Almost fog. Sea is just a few miles north). Double, blue white flash emerged from cloud and vanished in a fraction of a second. My suspicion is satellite debris. |
