The 50-year-old said he was looking up at “just the right moment” and managed to capture the sighting with his camera.
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News , he said: “I don't have a clue (what it could be).
"I knew it couldn't be International Space Station because it was moving too fast.
"It's hard to get stuff like this in the right time and right place.
"It's definitely too fast for the International Space Station and it's a different shape as well."
