Location of Sighting: Newton Aycliffe, Durham
Date of Sighting: 1st April 2010
Time: 21:47

Witness Statement: My mother and I were coming back from our local co-op and we were gazing up at the clear night sky. We both noticed an red circular shape, surrounded by a dark shadow high in the sky and we were both baffled by what it was. At first I thought it was a comet or meteorite but then realised that it was too large. My mother noticed that it was moving in a bobbing motion, on the same track as a plane.

We watched it carefully for sometime until we got home and are still watching for it or any other similar occurrences.
