Vertical cylinder, slow moving but caught sunlight reflects a couple of times which is what made me look up.was travelling in a south to north direction at a high altitude. The sky was cloudless and blue. There was no sound from object but a jet went over very high five minutes later which I could hear. Took about 6 photos on my mobile phone camera.

I was walking my dog for a walk as it was very warm and wanted to cool off before bed. I walked the dog down towards the river Mersey not far from Liverpool Airport (UK). As I said it was a warm night and when I got to the fields and the strangest thing started to happen, right above me there was lightning flashes lightning up the clouds. The strange thing was that the lightning was just lighting up the same area of sky. I found this weird as watched for roughly 10 mins and it continued to hit the same patch of sky . I then decided to take a few photos. On one of the photos you can see a UFO. By the way there was no sound, no thunder

I was walking my dog very close to Liverpool john Lennon airport on the 10th of August 2020. I remember it was so strange as there was lots of lightning but absolutely no thunder, I felt so weird very humid and still. The lightning seemed to continue to flash in the same area of sky over and over, i decided to take a couple of snaps with my phone before I headed home. It was only when I looked at the photos I noticed something in the sky. Anyway that’s it just a split second it must of been going at some rate of speed.

UFO sighting Liverpool (UK) sat 31st may 2020 Intermittent bright spot moving from direction northwest to southwest at elevation 45 degrees barely visible to naked eye but more interesting with binoculars. The object first appeared to the left of the moon as a single bright yellow spot fixed to a shape that was changing. As the bright yellow faded the object looked like irregular shaped dumbbells revolving. Then what appeared to be a total of 4 “rocket” motors kept flashing on / off, sometimes very bright and then lesser. We thought it was the spacex dragon mission but it was travelling in the opposite direction and was stationary for lots of the time. As it passed in front of the moon it did resemble a typical Apollo spacecraft albeit very tiny. The binoculars had been prefocused to see the moon so I knew this thing was a long way off and at a great height. The object was moving quite slowly compared to the ISS which I have seen many times. I was confused and excited thinking this might be the spacex craft but why is it moving in opposite direction to what had been reported? We observed the object heading southwest for approximately five to seven minutes before it vanished, possible haze cover ? Then five minutes later it revealed itself again whilst doing these “rocket” burns but now it was much further away and did not appear to be moving, possibly because it was heading directly away from us? This later observation was only possible with binoculars and only lasted for a few minutes.

We saw about 15 lights in a straight line equal formation and moving in the same direction. The we're moving at the same speed and then disappeared. An aeroplane crossed 1 of the lights and the light was covered by the plane and then appeared again as the plane passed. The lights had the same space between each 1 that appeared. After about 10 mintues, all the lights disappeared

It was the night when my father was getting married, so for a celebration we stayed up all night and had a party there was a meteor shower that night. In the middle of the night, when it was pitch black, I sore (sic. saw) a ufo wiz between the trees it was disc shaped and black with bright yellow and red lights on the brim of it at the side. The object was dark and it was dark because it was night I couldn't see if the object had a dome. It was maybe 20ft wide and thin moving fast.
