Case description

On October 5, 1981, two observers at Hastings, East Sussex, described an unusual object that appeared to change shape. They said it moved into or among clouds, intermittently obscuring it. Their account also included time they could not explain after the observation. No occupants, boarding or remembered examination are described in the preserved report. The experience centers on the changing appearance of the aerial object and the later recognition of a possible interruption in their recollection.
