8.30 PM. Very clear evening.

The witness, a married woman from Croesyceiliog, was in her stationary car in Caerleon, when she saw an object in the sky to the west of her location.

The object looked like a very small stationary cloud, very high, higher than an aircraft would normally fly. It seemed to shine.

At first she thought it was reflecting the sun. The moon was also visible.

The object seemed to get larger and elongated. A crescent-shaped object seemed to come from the first object (with a line through it). The second object then flew off in an easterly direction before climbing and disappearing. The witness had watched for about 20 minutes.

The witness reported it to Gwent Police who forwarded the report to the MOD.
