    Missed this last week unfortunately. There is some nice footage around.

    People from across the UK have reported seeing bright objects in the night sky, thought to be meteors or "space junk"

    Coastguards in Northern Ireland took calls from people who saw the objects from Coleraine on the north coast, to Strangford Lough in the south east.

    The lights were seen as far north as Caithness in Scotland as well as in Wales and Norfolk in East Anglia.

    Experts said the sightings could be satellite debris, burning up on entry to the atmosphere.
