Reports Report 5538zp (Event 5538-2017)

Observer
Name Paul N
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks My son and I were actually travelling north on the A1 between Tempsford and the Black Cat roundabout around 5.35pm on New years Eve 2017. I have tried to report accurately the positions of the sighting from a standing position in Tempsford. This was an absolute breathtaking phenomenon / experience that we both saw. At 54 years old having travelled the world, all I can say is that I have never witnessed anything like it. Absolutely mind blowing. Paul
