| Name | Lizzy R |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I cannot find any record of anyone else seeing it and I would like to know what I saw confirmed and get some sort of explanation about what it was. I was the only one in my family to witness it as I was seated facing east, curtains open watching Pale Horse on the BBC, looking across open countryside when this firework sinks ball light like feature - with a trail cruised across my field of vision. I was speechless for a while because you do not expect to see such a thing so randomly. |
