Sphere over Barnes, LONDON B · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Me and my friend getting some fresh air on the balcony when we spotted a bright orange orb flying around 200ft above us and moving from east to west, then we spotted another orange orb travelling west to east. The two orbs came together to from one and became extremely bright. The orb then stretched out into more of a oval shape and within a instant completely vanished without a trace
