Hi all,

There have been quite a few reports from the UK of this event last 
night, some from as far north as 58N. My video is here taken just NE of 
London:

Was this associated with the Space-X Falcon 9 launch? It is moving from 
S to N so I would have thought that was not consistent with the 53 deg 
orbit. It is a bit of a coincidence though and I don't know what else it 
could be.

On my all sky camera this first appears as a bright point and then 
expands out to a diffuse disk.

Nick James.
