Observer
Name Joseph J
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I filled in a form yesterday but I realised I got the time wrong. It was dusk so it was 21.10. I noticed a twin trail in the dark sky as if it were a plane going down with 2 streamers.The direction of travel of the object was south to north but I couldn't say how far away it was. I observed it from my lounge window whilst watching Poldark and noticed the bright light in the dark sky.
