Witness Statement
On Tuesday evening 18 Aug 2020 my friend and I were sitting on my top balcony looking at (what I think is) Venus … we then saw what (I thought) looked like a regular satellite tracking across the sky East to West towards it. However, it stopped dead in the sky for a couple of seconds then tracked back along its trajectory for maybe 5 seconds before disappearing into the night. It WASN’T a plane, helicopter, the ISS or frankly anything else I’ve ever seen. I love looking at the night sky and have never seen anything move like that!

I came out of my house,i then noticed something glinting in the sky,it looked metallic.It was orange and cylindrical.It remained stationary.It was at an angle in the sky of between 75 and 85 degrees.The sky was clear,it was sunny and there was no air traffic or vapour trails visible.I could not tell how high it was because I had no sense of its size.I went back into my house to get a witness ,however when we came out about 20 seconds later it was gone.I had seen this object for about 10 seconds.It could have been a drone but I heard no sound and saw no rotors moving.Also if it had been a drone it could not have disappeared without trace so quickly.Further,if it had been a drone the user may fly it again around here,especially as the weather has been good lately.But I have not seen it since.It certainly was not a Chinese lantern and it was unlikely to be a kite,since there was no wind.An interesting little experience,i wish I could have seen it for longer.Even so,it did seem strange enough to report.

Bright Orange Light-Newhaven East Sussex-10th January 2020

Newhaven East Sussex
Date Of Sighting :
10 January 2020

approx 20:50 to 20:55

Witness Statement
Where to start. For reasons I won’t explain I went to my front door and noticed in the edge of my vision a bright orange light. At first I thought it was an aircraft on fire, but there was no smoke trailing the light The light was moving from roughly SSE to NE at or below cloud level. Probably around 1000 to 1500feet. There were very few clouds in the sky and a full moon was shining almost directly overhead with the brightest stars visible. The light was about an eighth of the size of the moon and was most definitely not Mars or any other object normally seen in the night sky. As the light drew away from me (about fifteen seconds after first seeing it) it went out followed by a slight “blink”. What really made me wonder was the next few seconds. Given tonight is well lit with moonlight and the lights of the Harbour I noticed either against the cloud near where the light had been or against the moonlit sky a deep black object. It was visible for barely a fraction of a second and I wasn’t sure I had seen anything until it reappeared again for a very brief time in the same place. The object was a long “spike” on end with the pointed end facing up at the middle was a ball like structure and then another smaller spike pointing down. It was not an aircraft as there were no navigation lights no strobe lights and no noise other than traffic on the road below mine. I did wonder if I was watching an airliner as Newhaven is under a flightpath for Gatwick but this was too low and moving against the normal flow of such aircraft. Indeed had it been an airliner or largish aircraft it would have lost lift as its wings would have to be vertical. Airliners actually fly over Newhaven at, at least 5000 feet probably higher. Given I was a scientist this has taken some considerable thought to report this but it spooked me and the means of its instant disappearance meant I had to report it.

Vertical Moving Bright Light -Cuckfield West Sussex-July 2005

Comments

Location Of Sighting :
Cuckfield West Sussex
Date Of Sighting :
July 2005
Time:
Between 11 pm and1am
Witness Name:
Christopher K
Witness Statement
I noticed a bright star in the sky which seemed a little brighter than the others. All of a sudden, it accelerated vertically downwards beyond the tree line in the distance (somewhere over Burgess Hill/ Hassocks). This was all I saw but I was left in no doubt that his was a ufo. It had been stationary and then dropped unnaturally quickly and in a controlled manner. I didn’t report it at the time as I felt there was no point. I mentioned to people who didn’t seem to believe me and left it at that. All these years later it still plays on my mind.
