I was sat in my living room with curtains open when I looked up and saw what I thought was two moons. I realised it was Mars behind the moon so went to the door to take a photo on iPad. As I was trying to focus on the moon I was aware of smoke/steam rising under my left arm in a straight, but diagonal, line. Still not really taking notice, as I was concentrating on the moon, I didn’t follow the vapour trail with my eyes; but on looking at the two photos I noticed the vapour trail led to a small capsule-shaped object? See photos. I would be interested to know what it is and why it came from my garden!

I was on my bike going along on a moor looked up to the sky to see a bright light which was quite close, and was getting lower but not straight down, diagonal across the sky. This continued for between 5 and 10 seconds before disappearing.

London (UK/England) · United Kingdom
This happened at Canning Town station (east London). I was on the platform waiting for my trading. In the sky 3 white lights shaped like a pyramid are moving up and down repetitively. They weren’t going anywhere, just moving around in the same area. A lot of us on the platform near me were commenting about it and it detonate felt like a UFO!

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.

Stoke on Trent (UK/England) · United Kingdom
taking photograph of 32 crows chasing a buzzard (birds), egg or ball shaped object seem to appear out of nowhere, i watch it for about 5 minutes before it went, overcast day but dry , cool, just looks like a round shaped object on the photo but does seem to have 3 inner lights when photo reversed into a negative.. a copy of the original photo is available.. We would very much like to correspond with the source of the report, and very much like to look at the photo alluded to above, but the witness elects to remain totally anonymous, and provides no contact information! Hence, we are not able to contact the party. Also, the date of the sighting arrived at our Center flawed, so we have no idea when the alleged sighting occurred. PD

Middlesex, LONDON B · United Kingdom
I live near Heathrow, flight path comes over house. I cld see a bright white light. I was on my bed, watching TV. I have an en-suit bathroom. Door was open. I thought it was the moon. I sat on toilet, thinking moon that bright. I opened window more to see. I had to stand on bath edging. Lurking behind tree was a white orb. Next thing it came to me slowly. Pure white diamond, solid but the edging was pointy, red, blue and green. Like a star. I hanged out of window, I cld of touched it, few more inches but I wld of fallen out of window. I was astonished, I'm 49yrs old, I have had a fascination since I was a teenager. I just stood there in a trance. It was so pure. Estimated time not sure. Then it moved to go over roof, so I ran through the bedroom to the window, looked out nothing, it had gone. I do have quite a few vd and pictures. Next 6 months I was visited. I wld get an image of their face in my head, always night time. I new they were around. Those months were frightening.

Lincolnshire, LINCOLNS · United Kingdom
Night fishing on shore, great clear skies, minimal crescent moon very low on horizon, was watching satellites, shooting stars etc. Mainly monitoring my fishing rod tips, so staring in small area where rod tips were - to include taking in of night sky behind. Observed what I thought to be a shooting star - it fell as a shooting star, looked like a shooting star... As entered atmosphere, white shooting star object lit up for split second as most do when burning through atmosphere entry... Also within this split second - Object broke into 4 pieces. ( I thought disintegrated from 1 into 4, was in awe had never seen this). Is it military, flying from outer atmosphere - re-entering? Now 4, flying in a diamond formation - still as if shooting star (unsure of measurements as miles out to sea) but then... maybe mile above sea level, all 4 objects uniformly straightened up, flew maybe mile high, horizontal to sea level, then flew out over the sea towards Denmark & out of my sight. How did it / they level up, not continue falling as all shooting stars do? How did it glow on atmosphere entry / split into 4? I reported at time but heard nothing, also contacted local Skegness Police & Council & seaside beachfront amusement parks - for CCTV pointing in direction. Heard nothing. Only found this site today, hence delayed report. At time of observation I posted exact time to record. Now not sure of time, sure of date. Now social media post i made at time only displays date. People ask why didn't record on phone - mainly was night time and low lighting so doubt old phone capable to record + happened within 12 seconds - so quick, consider - observed, realised what was observing within say 5-7 seconds, if then (when did think too) reach to find phone, switch on to record etc, would have missed it. No noises or flashing colours or humming, was like watching a shooting star, enter atmosphere, split into 4, continue to fall, but... then straighten up and fly horizontally for at least 5 seconds -= then continued horizontally - flying out of view, towards Denmark. Back story - Happened while spent 2 years on UK coastal night-fishing tour. Only once observed strange objects in night sky unable to explain. Clear skies permitting - observed satellites, shooting stars + Space-x train - multiple times.

Having a conversation with a mate on way to McDonalds near Middlesbrough FC stadium and look up whilst sighing at the chat and notice a green light zig zagging about 30,000ft up for over 10 seconds it stops dead like its noticed us looking and then it shoots off out of sight in about 2 seconds which is over 3 miles the eyes can see but it like stopped twice in that to propell its self forward hard to explain it was near Middlesbrough f.c ground but actually over the power station.

Newport (UK/England) · United Kingdom
On this particular date, after taking a shower, I found myself looking out my bedroom window to see a object in the air. The best way I can describe this object is that it was shaped like a pill. This object was silver, chrome in color, but it had a red gleam or a red light on it. It just moved across the sky like a plane, but its appearance was a different than a plane obviously, there where no wings on the on the object. I'm a 13 year old that has an interest astronomy and been seeing lots of cylinder, cigar and 'pill' shaped objects. Witness provides no contact information. PD

High Wycombe (UK/England) · United Kingdom
9-8-2018 (sic. 07/08/2018)) Seen at 0425 local time, travelling approx.. W to E at about an inclination of 75 degress relative to S in High Wycombe after a loud bang was heard (which is why I went outside). Appearance was of a very bright light which did not extinguish when it went slowly overhead like aircraft lights do. When in the Eastern sky two much smaller lights (like missiles) were seem coming rapidly from the machine in quick succession. And in almost opposite directions. Their tracks of light were quite short. The colour was slightly off white for machine and “missiles”. No sound head. I suspect the RAF using a new plane and practising but on the Heathrow flight paths???!!! ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Most definitely a serious report Peter and the date was July 8th 2019. (sic. 2018) If it was man made then it was behaving dangerously as on the Heathrow airport flight approach path!!!! Missiles??? Beams??? God knows! With regards,

Boston (UK/England) · United Kingdom
It was a hot day and the sun was out, I looked up into the sky facing north and saw the object reflecting off of the sun almost as if it was metallic. It moved from north to west in a matter of minutes and looked as if it was potentially just below cloud height. I had never seen an object like it in the 8 years prior to the sighting and I haven’t in the near 2 years after.

Wallop, HAMPSHIR · United Kingdom
My partner had been sitting in the garden watching a stationary orb to the East above Stockbridge for 5 minutes. He then called me to look. Whilst having a coffee together we continued to watch for another 15 minutes. Living near Middle Wallop airfield we knew it was NOT a helicopter. My partner has a telescope and felt it was NOT a star/planet/satellite. We both thought it might be looking at Porton Down, to the West. We then went in to put the cups away/visit the bathroom but it had gone when we came back out. I remarked that I'd previously seen something EXACTLY like this in 1994, daylight hours, above the Isle of Sheppey at the mouth of the River Thames, the view point being the Cliffs Pavilion in Southend on Sea, where I grew up. There were 6 witnesses on that occasion. Only reporting this now as there seems more global interest today than in previous years.

Sunny day, warm with light breeze. Some cloud, blue sky. I stopped to take photographs of yellow meadow. Natural sounds of birds, light traffic. Four hours later reviewed photos. Duplicate of the same scene only one show this object. BLACK TRIANGLE, possible 300 feet above ground level?

Spital (UK/England) · United Kingdom
Looking south west from spital. Probably same height as commercial aircraft (Know this because a commercial aircraft passed through roughly the same airspace 10 mins after the sighting. Three red balls of light in a horizontal configuration, hovering, no visible movement, silent with no engine noise. Then each ball shot upward with incredible speed with a gap of about 5 seconds between each ball.
