UFO sighted over Cardiff in 1985

Summary

A declassified document from the UK Ministry of Defence describes a UFO sighting in Cardiff on September 8, 1985. A witness reported seeing a large pinkish-red round object with a smaller red light hanging below it. The sighting occurred at Hailey Park, outdoors, and the object was moving east to west at low altitude. The witness estimated the object to be about 150 feet above the ground and moving steadily. Weather conditions were clear, and the report notes that six of the witness's friends also saw the object. Llantwit Major and Cardiff police were notified, but no conventional explanation was found for the phenomenon.

This case is one of many recorded in British archives, where testimonies from civilians and officials are collected regarding unexplained aerial phenomena. Although no clear explanation was found in this case, details such as the object's color and movement suggest a careful and detailed observation by the witness. The report was distributed to various military and defense units for analysis, but no further action was recorded.
