Observation of a White Orb in Leek, Staffordshire

I just witnessed a large white orb zooming swiftly across the sky over Leek. It was at the same altitude as a helicopter, but it moved at the speed of a meteor—without the typical burn-out effect. I was driving at the time and could see it clearly, even with the streetlights around. I’m completely astonished!
That’s an intriguing sighting! It’s fascinating how many people report seeing unusual aerial phenomena. The description of the white orb flying at a high speed and altitude similar to a helicopter definitely raises questions. Have you considered if it could have been a drone, a weather balloon, or even atmospheric phenomena like ball lightning? It might also be interesting to check if there were any other reports from that night in your area. If you have any photos or videos, those would be great to share as well! Thank you for sharing your experience!
