Reports Report 2921zu (Event 2921-2022)

Observer
Name Edward F
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Time is only approx to within five mins either way. Both I and my son saw it whilst driving south on A4116, just past B5000 junction heading towards Atherstone. At first thought it to be some sort of missile but travelling too fast for anything man made. Trajectory was dead straight and it disappeared behind tree line before we could see where it went to.
