"Hi, 
I was in the garden of my mum's house in Featherstone, West Yorkshire last night at around 10pm - 10.30pm having a cigarette, and I was looking up at the sky because it was a clear night, when from behind me, (appearing from behind my mum's house and coming from the south east), I saw a large object that was a dull orange in colour, which flew overhead, before disappearing over the opposite houses.

It took 4 - 5 seconds to travel this distance and moved in total silence.

I've seen helicopters, planes, satellites, shooting stars and the space station before and this was none of them.

It appeared to be lit from inside or reflecting light and it's orange appearance looked mottled.

I could'nt make out the shape because of the colouring and the speed it was travelling.

To explain the size I would have to say that if I hold my hand at arms length with my thumb stuck out, it was slightly bigger than my thumb nail.

I have never seen anything like it before, if you have had anymore reports similar to this please reply to my e-mail. 
 
Thank you,
AS'"
