    Came across this this morning while checking something, looks like a column of light near UL.

    Any idea what it is? Aliens? Fireworks? :)

    I think it can be explained by light reflecting off a glass house. There used to be another one over in Annacotty, but I've seen them all over the world.

    The extended exposure and other techniques they use for taking pictures facilitate this column of light.

    I see you are part of the alien cover up conspiracy. ;)

    I'm a google earth novice, thanks for the info. :)

    speaking of google earth over limerick. The Pics got updated.
    Where I work we got an extension to our carpark a few weeks back
    and it appears on google earth now.
    The res is still the same though.

    They're all over the place. There's one in my back garden. I think it's just light reflecting off the conservatory, though. Definitely not there in reality.
