Rectangle over Washington · United Kingdom

The report, as filed

I witnessed a rectangular object slowly flying from the West to the East just after midnight,it was completely glowing bright white,the entire craft,It was approximately 25/30% flying low in the sky from my location looking due South, I was able to take a number of photos of the craft, I didn't think I would be able to video it due to the distance, approximately a mile from my location, I had to go from my back garden to the front of my house to photograph the craft some more,as I was going thru the house I woke up the second witness to this event, we observed the craft hovering, it had stopped flying to the East, with our local knowledge of this area we assumed that the craft had stopped and was hovering over Penshaw Monument, while it was hovering ideas trying to adjust my camera to try to get better pictures, but when we were about to take more pictures the craft had vanished, I have reported this to MUFON. The following day after my report I got a phone call from a MUFON Investigater telling me that it was a actual true sighting.
