WITNESS ON RECORD: alex
JURY OF 186 READERS HEARD THIS CASE: 104 believed it, 39 had doubts, 43 weren't buying it.
My dog is an idiot and I say that with love. She barks at bin lorries. She barks at the moon when it is a particular shape she does not care for. She once barked at a hot air balloon for eleven minutes.
On the night of 2 June she went out for her last wee and did not come back, and I went out in socks to find her sitting — sitting, in wet grass, which she hates — with her head up.
There was an object crossing the sky from the north. It was not high. It had no lights of its own, which is what I want you to hold on to. It was visible because it was blacker than the sky and it had an edge, and the edge went across the stars and put them out one at a time and gave them back.
It made no sound. It took, I think, ninety seconds to cross from one side of my garden's sky to the other, and it was going at the speed of a slow bus.
My dog watched it the whole way. She turned her head, tracking it, like a spectator at tennis. And she did not bark, or growl, or do the little grumble she does at cats.
