Ball of Light with Tail

22nd July 2007 at Approximately 2200 hrs, Rugby, Warwickshire, UK

Whilst I was stood outside my place of work facing the building with a colleague I witnessed a bright white ball of light with a tail, too big to be a star, shoot from the south end of the building to the north descending towards the building, it then stopped, shot backwards, stopped, shot forwards once again before disappearing, it had disappeared before my colleague could turn around to witness it.

In all I would estimate it was visible to me for 4-5 seconds.

The night was dry and there was no wind, there was only one star visible, far higher in the sky and a tenth smaller than what I had seen.

NUFORC Note:

We have amended the date above to July 22nd. PD
