| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Joanna C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It was a very bright light just above the horizon that I thought was a plane, then realised it was heading straight down. Ball shape at first second or so then a trail and then simply disappeared. I told me dad, he suggested it might be a ‘starburst’ on Salisbury plain |
