I saw three over about 6 minutes, night before last. This area is
heavily light polluted with Luton, Stevenage, Welwyn/Hatfield, St.
Albans all within a few miles.
The sky was clear but a bit blurred by moisture vapour. I also saw what
appeared to be a satellite of some sort, travelling North - South and
much too fast to be an aircraft.
More than likely thats the International space station, thats doing IIRC
some 17,000 MPH...
But that goes West - East sort of...

Hmm... maybe. Definitely North South.
This thing appeared to tumble which I assume the ISS does not do.
Umm.. 23:10 on the 12th. Crossing France NW-SE. My eyesight must be
better than I thought:-)
