    UFO sighting

    I’m on a nightshift and was up just before 0500.
    Sitting on the bench outside having a coffee when something quite odd went over.
    On first seeing I thought it was just a satellite, but when I looked closer, there were two points of light,
    One much brighter than the other and between them what looked like a bit of illuminated cloud.
    Dimmer point of light at 11 o’clock from the “cloud”
    Brighter point at 3 o’clock.
    Steady light, nothing flashing.
    Moving at a speed that made me think it was a satellite. Thought only point of reference is when the object passes behind a lamppost.
    All three tracked at the same speed and kept position.
    Realised my phone was in my pocket and fumbled to get the last few seconds before it passed behind a big cloud bank.
    Brighter point of light was briefly still visible through the cloud.
    Bearing was due south.
    Object moving west to east.
    All other cloud moving roughly south to north.
    Timed at 0505hrs

    If someone can give me instruction I will post video clip.

    40second video too big for direct upload.

    For scale, that’s the lamppost in daylight that the object passes behind and those are the building lights at the end of video.

    Weird.

    Slow worm in an MX5 maybe?


    Other than that I've no idea

    Strange that the cloud of gas (if that’s what it is) didn’t disperse from the object.

    I’ve emailed Tim Peake to see what he reckons

    Most likely its own light being shone onto nearby cloud surface perhaps

    Interesting. Typically the verified UFO (or UAP to give the proper name) encounters show no visible propulsion source or exhaust etc so the cloud is interesting. Speculation is recovered UFOs that have been analysed by the US government have a proprietary propulsion system that generates energy through a series of nuclear reactions. Of course this is hearsay and there still are sceptics- that being said according to Luis Elizondo there is a 23 minute, hi definition video of a UAP taken from the cockpit of a Raptor jet and cross verified by US military satellite that is apparently one of the next ones to be released into the public domain as most of the currently released vids are nearly 20 years old and grainy low resolution footage

    Hmmm, very interesting to see and it’s just a shame you couldn’t get closer to really see it

    The “cloud” keeps its size and shape and tracks with the illuminated object at the same speed.
    I’m in agreement that the reflected light from the object is illuminating the cloud,
    But my interpretation was that the “cloud” was at the same altitude and speed as the bright object.
    It’s not as if the light is on nearby (to earth) cloud surface.

    I think it is, and that is why you can see the "cloud" disappear completely just 1-2 seconds before the light itself goes into the same cloud. The object (having travelled parallel to it) approaches the cloud then enters it, as far as I can see from the clip. Clearly I wasn't there, but that is certainly what it looks like.

    I must apologise, It’s appalling quality.
    Zoomed in and trying to auto focus…:(

    Very mysterious John, although it's good to see your still with us and weren't abducted.

    Looks like an aircraft with its landing light on.

    Cool

    I wonder if the 'Moving cloud' in front was simply a blanket of thin cloud cover that didn't show up in the vid except for where the light at the front of the UFO was shining!

    Some years ago I had to take my bro in law to Hull to get his car and wages, His boss was in the middle of nowhere and there was more stars in the sky (No road lighting) than i'd ever seen before, Whilst I was waiting for him to get his keys and money I looked at the clouds and saw something bright come in to view, It was very fast moving and appeared in my sight as far as I could see and disappeared from my sight in the opposite side of my vision in a very few minutes! I was agog at it!!..

    Turned out it was my first sighting of the ISS

    That what it looks like to me, maybe with the landing light angled down onto shallow layer or patch of cloud.
