| Name | William H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My lounge is on a hillside, I face West, I always sit watching TV and the night sky at the same time. I previously saw an object a few years ago, same Westerly direction and altitude, only in that case it was travelling from East to West, roughly on a line from the River Humber to South Wales. It was then reported as a meteorite that landed in the Irish Sea, having been observed flying over Wales. However, I am convinced it was a man-made craft, the size bigger than a huge aircraft. It broke up as I watched it, it was completely different from this observation. This observation was less than 1/10 of the size. |
