Hendon, North West London, 6th August, 2007, U.K.
Approach Direction: South. Departure Direction: North. Witness Direction: North.
I was standing in my back garden watching the stars at 2:00am before sleeping, when I noticed something moving very fast across the sky. It was extremely high up so that I had to watch very closely to see it as it went away.
At first I thought it was a shooting star or something of the like but I very much doubt so as I could see it moving steadily in speed and direction for at least 6-7 seconds.
It was a bright light, similar to a star's appearance but much bolder.
