I was outside having a cigarette, gazing up at the night sky. i always like to look at bettlguise flashing red and blue and the plough, i’m not an astronomer by any means but i do know what stars are generally around me and i’ve come to know how they look... i’m always fascinated by star gazing. i noticed a bright strange light, only once in my life and it gave the resemblance of a spot light. i know it wasn’t a normal aircraft as it had no green or red flashing lights, it just slowly glided through the air similar to a satellite. it was about the same altitude as a passenger plane at a guess, but something about it just didn’t feel right.. it slowly glided for about 5 seconds, then it kinda changed course and started to increase speed, faster and faster, something i have never seen done or even believed possible. especially being so high and moving at such a high speed isn’t something i’ve seen before. it made me feel a little uneasy, it almost felt spiritual/ feeling of surprise and “oh my god” i wanted to grab a picture/video of it, but from experience even taking pictures of the moon doesnt do it justice, and i didn’t want to miss the experience not knowing how long it would last for.. it left my line of sight due to surrounding buildings blocking the view,. i’m an educated man and i’m aware of the world around me, but this wasn’t normal
