Now had chance to clean up the video of the UNID captured on Friday night. The video http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/HBMover.wmv consists of 25-second frames.The UNID can just be seen top of the screen in the first frame ,which I have highlighted .In the same frame four of the Eutelsat Hotbird fleet can be seen, approx mag 12. I then followed the object "north" and observed it for a few more minutes ....... approx RA= 0h33.9m Dec= -7°30' There were a couple of graveyard satellites in the area at the time , but I dont think the movement of the object is consistent with their orbit. It seems to be moving too fast.
