Location of Sighting: Lutterworth, Leicestershire
Date of Sighting: 19th January 2010
Time: 18:15

Witness Statement: Exactly one year since I first reported a sighting and just 3 miles up the road.

Driving home down the M1. Just south of Junction 20 (Lutterworth) orange light appeared on horizon to the South West. Object was only in view for a couple of seconds as it shot across the sky over my head towards the North East. No trail behind it, though the light could be seen reflecting from the low overcast. I saw a chinese lantern going overhead at new year and there was no resemblance to this object.

This thing was moving at a fantastic rate, my guess is that it covered at least 3 miles in the couple of seconds it was visible (that's over 5000 mph!), but it wasn't a meteor as it was below the clouds. Let's all hope he wasn't late for his appointment, eh?
