Michael Hopkins:


'I was walking home along Gelliwastad Road after meeting a few friends, when I noticed in front of me coming over the darkness of the Graig mountain, a white light travelling approximately north-east, and virtually parallel with Gelliwastad Road.


I stopped to watch this white light as it travelled from horizon to horizon [SSW to NNE] in the time it takes to look. I would estimate that it took about 6 seconds. My observation was not affected by alcohol as I am not a drinking man. It was a warm and clear night with the stars clearly visible, and on the date of the observation, the street lights were of an older and less bright type.'
