ANyone else see the visually wonderful Chinese Lantern drift across the sky in the South Circular Rd area of Dublin 8 tonight at approx 9:30 ish?

It was at about 100 to 200 feet glowing a very pretty bright orange snd the base was obviously lit looking like a flickering bright yellow colour.

I talked to some folk who witnessed it across from Griffith College at the local Spar shop.

It was amazing to hear their reaction.

One insisted it was a UFO and they could see it's "booster" rocker firing on and off.

Another managed to record a useless blob on their mobile (it will probably appear on utube as UFO "evidence" !)

The other thought it was the Space shuttle or the Iss space staion!

Anyway I watched it with binoculars until it faded away in the distance.

As it was a clear night I happened to be watching the Moon and noticed it pass over.

Anyone else see it?
