Hello, I'm new...theres something flying around bath, uk!

Hi...I'm new...I'm a student in the uk.

I read ats and other forums as a byestander of sorts and don't ever join/post.


However, after reading a few threads over the last few months (and being a 'fan' of this site)I thought I'd post what I just saw.

I went out for a smoke...please note it's both dark and very cloudy. Where I live there is air traffic flying to Bristol Airport.

...so, I'm having a smoke and I see a very faint light in the clouds that's moving very fast...in circles, up down, diagonally...disappearing and coming back into view. Over the last 5 minutes of watching it, I've seen it change from a yellow light to a blue light, getting bigger/smaller as it nears/leaves sight. As there's been a 'break' in the clouds I caught a very distinct blue light briefly.

I know how fast a plane goes, I often see them at night while out smoking (and in the day)...this was 'faster' than a plane....it's covering the same/more distance literally in seconds as a plane covers in 5 minutes (it wasn't military either....there's no sound out there, planes have engines!), and still remains in view.

....what it looks like in perspective...if you imagine those big sky searching spotlights....it was about that size, but as I say....covering a huge distance, and changing colour...plus not following the same path like a light would...and travelling much faster than they can.

I don't know what it was...suffice to say it wasn't a plane and anyone who is interested/who might be able to look up and see...something's there.

that will teach you to take out a cam next time you go smoke

welcome to ATS

Hi, and thanks for the hello...I wouldn't be able to capture anything on a cam...it's too dark/cloudy...I'm a little out towards the country side too...

...But whatever it is, 'tis still there flying round...looks fun

hm maybe we have luck and someone with a "nightshot" cam lurking around somewhere in your area

oh really...

did you happen to catch what shape it was?
