In January 1979 at 9:45 PM in Sunderland, England, I, my mother, and a bus driver witnessed a UFO. It was a clear and cold night. The UFO was hovering 20 feet away in a field and was the size of a small bungalow, approximately 350 feet wide. It was saucer-shaped with 9 multicoloured bulbs in a circular pattern and a larger, intensely bright, steady white beam in the center. There was a centralized rotating ring on top of the UFO that made a grinding sound. The multicoloured bulbs changed sequence when the UFO lifted off and again when it tilted 45 degrees and zoomed away over the Pennywell Hospital rooftops, heading for orbit. The bus driver also saw the UFO zooming away. There was no noise coming from the UFO, just an echo of sound from the ring on top. The multicoloured bulbs seemed to be related to space travel.
