Hi, yes I saw the same thing at the same time… checked the Internet and the ISS was passing at that time and in the same direction. You can check where the ISS is in realtime here: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=25544

Me and my partner was in the back garden watching the sky and saw nothing unusual..we could see to or three bright stars about the same brightness then ten minute after one of the star left its still position and moved directly over out heads and faided off into the distance!! Not in a straight Line!again with no plane lights no satalite (I no the difference) I was convinced!

Your description matches exactly what I saw over Norwich last night at around 9pm. Just a plain white light moving west to east. It wasn’t dark enough to spot a satellite and had no flashing lights like a plane. I have seen a similar light on other occasions and can never explain what it is. There is no noise and on one night last year it stayed in the same position for about 10 minutes then started moving slowly across the horizon. My girlfriend thinks I’ m nuts but for the last 20 years I have lived near to RAF Coltishall and watched hundreds of jets coming in to land at different times of day. Whatever it is I can’t explain it. Wasn’t expecting to see it again so didn’t get the camcorder out in time. Will leave it near the window from now on!

I live in Sunderland North East England At approxamatley 11pm on 8th,9th and 10th August facing South I witnessed the same single white light travelling West to East as it moved East away from me it still glowed white and as you say no flashing tail lights of a plain. Saturday the 11th of August there was too much low cloud

Saw the same thing over biggleswade very high up looked like a slow moving star . 11.00pm .
Don’t know if it was space station flying over . What was strange when I looked to the left seconds after it passed , lower altitude was something moving very fast no lights or sound . Could make it out because of clear sky . And floodlights from football ground .

Me too same thing in East Sussex! Check my post from Herstmonceux… I’ve seen two nights running now. checked the ISS on smart phone & wasn’t anywhere near. More to the point I’ve seen that plenty & it doesn’t speed up until it’s out of sight when still in a clear line of sight! The ISS goes behind a cloud or the curvature of the planet as its in orbit & what we saw for two nights running was not!! Amazing!!!

If this is the iss how come we have time descrepancies on various sightings and why doesn’t it curve in the sky like a satellite .?i couldnt check where the iss was on the 11/08. At 2205 because the link is in real time.

We believe you, Ryan. Am waiting for corroboration from the media.

I also saw this. I was looking at Mars (I think) from my landing window and saw a white point of light moving slowly overhead. It moved in a straight line. I’m near Haywards Heath in W.Sussex.

Me and my sister seen this light moving across the night sky around 10-11pm (can’t be sure the exact time as was in and out sitting in garden that evening). It’s exactly what u all describe above – definately not a plane, not a meteorite, just a slow moving bright light. Was amazing, would love to know what it was. Oh, we were in Manchester.
