Something fell from the sky earlier

Numina

I'd like to say meteorite, and I'm probably right. I'm in leixlip and around 45 mins ago me and a few friends were hanging around, one of them spotted a flaming circular mass in the sky falling west, It was moving incredibly fast, leading me to believe that it was pretty close. i ran to see it between the trees and as i was watching it, the flame went out, I'm not sure what the hell it was but the friend who spotted it said (and another confirmed) that there was a green trail.

so what the hell, did anybody else see this?

I too saw the beast. Twer a hunderth score in body and nay a winthrop short o' a horses nay from breadth to bay. Best leave it lie for night. Twill need feeding in the moro. I suggest two hens warble fenders, a putty monocular and a squidgen of Morrison's mittlewockle to ease the steady brew to the beasts blackened heart. Hear me now boy, you make sure you and your brave fellows stand well back for when that Dicken's does wake it'll take more than Delilah McMillagoody's good daughter herself to keep a hould of it's raging horn!

Was in the car with the girls there an hour ago and we saw the exact same thing-in Galway though!! wonder what it was!

In Tramore many years ago. I was in the back garden and saw a bright silver object ball-shaped with a bright flame and smoke, it fell to earth over the sea.

Something dropped from an aircraft I thought at the time. The south coast is/was used a lot by military aircraft.

I was cycling past the roundabout near glen easton in leixlip around the same time and I saw a light fall from the sky over towards the canal. It was falling fast, but it was too close to be an aircraft, but too slow to be a firework.

andrew

My sis saw it, said it was a shooting star.

mp3guy

It was way too close to be a shooting star

andrew

well, she did see it from Whitehall. Dirty Big and Bright shooting star/meteor/meteorite

Sounds like the Easter Bunny coming in for a crash landing but don't worry about him, he's a hardy motherfecker.

True, but when I think shooting star I think something that doesn't reach earth as opposed to it just skimming past/burning up on the way in.

Good for you! *patronising pat on back* Doesn't change what it is, you know that?

What hits the earth is called a meteorite, the falling star/shooting star itself is called a meteor.

Actually allow me to correct myself on that!
After further research the light trail itself is actually called the meteor and the bits of rock and dust that cause the light trail are meteoroids.

I never even heard of meteoroids, I think NASA are making it all up!!!;)

weeder

someone go and look for it! aand return with pictures!

Savman

tis just Superman.

Numina

Ibid: Yes

Andrew: yes but faster closer, and with no trail (because it was night?)

edit, sorry, there was a trail, i didn't see it though

andrew

my sis said there was definately a trail, she saw it only for a sec tho

lostexpectation

the moon were real low and yellow last night werent it, not moving though

g5hn710m4xpdwy

I just noticed. I think I may of seen it.

But it was like a very big star. Didn't seem to be moving and it looked kind of high. So it might not of been it. at about 21:30 Flunked saw something strange;)

Numina

if it wasn't moving, then i don't think you saw it, this a flaming ball goddamn racing through the sky.
