Salford, Greater Manchester-13th April 2009
Location of Sighting: Salford, Greater Manchester
Date of Sighting: 13th April 2009
Time: 3:20am
Witness Name: Michelle
Witness Statement: I had just given birth to my baby at Salford Royal (Hope Hosp.) I was on the maternity unit, and woke to feed my baby. I looked out of the window which looks over the M602 towards Trafford Park Industrial Estate. I spotted what looked like a flair from a flair gun travelling from the direction of Eccles towards Manchester city centre. It travelled at a continuous speed in a straight line. The moon was full and the sky was clear I estimated the object to be travelling at the same height and speed as a small aircraft. The object appeared to be a orange glowing circular shape and made no obvious sound.

Hey,
I’m from Blackburn and around 10pm I was walking home and when looking up I saw bright red flare in the sky (as if a plane would be taking off into the sky) towards around Manchester area. We don’t get to see aeroplanes around Blackburn unless its going to and from Blackpool airport. After 10 seconds another followed and it repeated until about 8 flares. They looked very strange, more missiles being fired into the space.
These flares were travelled at great speed and did NOT look like planes.
Something is going on, something very strange.

hello!!!
I was travelling home from a meal in Burnley with my fella at about 10:15pm, and saw an orange light in the sky. As we were driving past the streetlights it looked like one of them, with an orange glow, like it was burning. I thought my eyes were going blurred, but my fella said whats that burning in the sky? as we carried on driving the light followed us but rapidly ascended out of view. We tried to look closely at it as we stopped to see if it could be a hot air balloon but there was just fire in the sky. we thought Jesus had come back for us! then it disappeared from view as it was ascending so quickly!!
We observed it for approx 3 minutes until it was out of sight.
