I have spent lots of time in low light areas and spotted satalights and small shooting start lots of times but this was very very different to anything I’ve ever seen in the sky before I had just returned to bed after visiting the bathroom and it was that big and fast that it made me panic and jump up to see what on earth it was

Remarks
Initially a shockin bright sudden burst of light grabbed my attention Imediately a huge orange trail formed as it moved at a very fast speed then it’s went through a series of colour changes and as it passed and got lower on the horizon the trail seemed to fade but the object stayed very bright and appeared to become 2 bright items but close together untill it left my view getting lower and lower I tried regording it nut my flash came on and bounced off the skylight and blinded the camera
