| Name | Adam T |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I've been in wilderness areas and saw shooting stars. Saw Northern lights in Lapland. Been around all sorts planes, flew many times. Got an interest in the cosmos been to NASA, had fighter pilot friends. Taught observation skills as part of survival skills in dangerous areas been in war zones plus for advance driving. Long sight is very good. Also saw a true UFO in great situation that was observed by others including RAF personnel. So don't jump to conclusions also spoken to several reliable people who have seen ball lightning. So got good balance did not imagine this. It filled approx 10% of the corner of my car windscreen with no other vehicles around to cause dazzle or some sort of adoration. Windscreen super clear. This is the brightest object I've seen in the night sky. This was low trajectory. Also called Royal Observatory in Edinburgh to report it at 17.30. Adam |
