As reported

Diamond over Peterborough (UK/England) · United Kingdom

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I've taken various photos in the sky's over my house & on numerous occasions the craft keeps appearing in my photos & when I blow up the image it's always the same craft. The first time I noticed it was when I took a photo of a usaf f15 fighter jet flying over on the 30th June 2016 but didn't see anything in the sky until I took a look at my photo then saw two (2) craft of the same shape. Then on another occasion on the 3rd of July a biplane flew over so I took another photo and again nothing could be seen with the naked eye until I took a look at the photos then saw the same two craft again. And the last sighting was on the 7th July 2016 when I was flying my drone at an altitude of 140m so decided to take a photo which when I did I noticed a white/green circle in my photo & this craft was also in the picture but strangely could not be seen by the human eye. Whilst my drone was hovering at 140m above ground level I placed my controller down to take the photo so with nobody touching the controls my drone started flying forwards & backwards & in circle motion by itself very strange. If you would like to see my photos please contact me then I will be happy to forward them to you. Witness indicates that the date is approximate. PD

Diamond shape formation (UFO's) in Peterborough. Appearence resembled faint stars. Seen surrounding a bright star and then swiftly moved diagonal, then switched between a diamond formation to a slight square and back. The bogus contact information the source of this report provides makes us wonder whether it is a serious report, or a hoax. PD

Went into the country side at 01:50 am near Yaxley Perterborough looking at stars .... saw the space station go over our heads...then looked at the other direction towards where mars was in the night sky and saw a star brighter than any other move over the night sky and it seemed to wobble left to right constantly while changing direction..... Never going to forget that.
