Newport, Pembroke-23rd July 2009
Location of Sighting: Newport, Pembroke
Date of Sighting: 23/07/09
Time: 2130hrs
Witness Name: Ian Gould
Witness Statement: I was on beach esplanade with my 15 year old son last night, we'd been for a meal in town and we were just taking photos when we saw something move across the sky from Carn Ingli heading west - I have it on video tape for about 10 seconds - it was circular and white but turning red - it moved almost like a helipcopter but faster and more hovering - it disappeared into clouds heading out over sea and then reappeared near Carn Ingli again for about two minutes before disappearing again.

hi ian
im afraid it was.nt a “ufo”,no what you saw was the iss “spacestation” which was visible that night and time.if you go online look for iss visible passes http://www.heavens-above.com/PassSummary.aspx?satid=25544&lat=52.0770&lng=-04.6780&loc=St-Dogmaels&alt=0&tz=GMT. you should in future be able to see this event,this viewing is often confused with ufo sightings not suprisengly really as some viewings can be as bright as venus some nights and very entertaing also on some occasions i have viewed both shuttle and spacestation.
anyway hope this helps.
