Unspecified over Lytham St Annes (UK/England) · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was on my balcony at the date and time stated having an early morning cigarette. I was looking up at the clear sky when I noticed what I thought was a satelite. It was moving silently and quickly across the sky. However, immediately behind it were 13 other objects, equally spaced out and moving on the same trajectory. There was then a bigger gap to the final object that was trailing a bit behing but moving at what I estimated was the same speed. All the objects were the same and looked like satellites *small stars) The objects came from the north and headed south, There was no noise either from the objects and from my surroundings as it was so early in the morning.
