Did anyone see this UFO last Friday

DesperateDan

This UFO was spotted Friday morning: https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/close-encounter-with-ufo-off-irish-coast-leaves-pilots-wondering-884774.html

l was driving home at about 9.15-ish (PM) in pitch black in the middle of nowhere (near Granard, Longford), and I spot this light moving slowly, like a plane in the distance. I then catch it stopping, reversing direction and flying off faster than a concorde. Did I also see aliens?

Why would aliens bother flying over those kips?

Saw on twitter earlier sum1 saying New Zealand launched a rocket with a satellite onboard and it travelled up this way. Could explain it?

Probably not, but if certain countries are hiding tech capable of the manoeuvres this thing supposedly pulled off id class that as more worrying than it being actual aliens. What else are they hiding?

Similarly, less than a decade ago, in the horizon east towards Croghan Hill/Kildare border direction, I saw a starlike light travel at a fixed speed in a dead straight trajectory from right to left across the horizon. Then at the end of that run, shoot up vertical having g changed direction at a right angle. I was perplexed, then dumbfounded afterwards as I thought about it.
I am a night sky observer and what I saw was highly unusual. Upon research, that trajectory matched other sightings.
Imagine people second-guessing pilots, Gardai, army personnel, etc etc. Is there no end to the hubris of science worshippers?
Quality observations gleaned from quality observers should be treated with sceptical respect.

Absolutely agree. Lets use science to understand them. We know there is something very unusual being seen. We do not know if it is extraterrestrial, or from somewhere else. However we need to treat this phenomenon with the respect it deserves, and not automatically dismiss it.

It was once dismissed that the earth was not flat .... Examine, record, collaborate, and let the data speak for itself. without data points we cannot begin to formulate answers.

However, I get slightly irritated when so called "experts" like Gerry Byrne say that the pilots probably saw a meteorite. Did he give any thought to how much he is disrespecting the captains of those aircraft.

They see meteors/shooting stars, etc, and can tell the difference. When 3 commercial pilots , are crossing the atlantic, on sceduled routes, and all 3 report something unusual, well, I would not be quick to tell them they saw a meteorite. - In my humble opinion, it simply highlights his sheer ignorance.

Driving one night a few years ago, I saw something unidentifiable in the sky that seemed to shoot upwards, and my wife asked, what I was looking at and then she said she saw it too after I told her. It was like two lights in the sky over a tree line, that shot off at speed, and we couldnt explain it.

They were looking for the Jedi Temple on Skellig, and got lost , the GPS doesnt work too well in Kerry. They were trying to Eyeball it, and follow the roads, but they could only see the potholes.

Never mind UFOs, there are probably those who believe in the end times/rapture nonsense.

That poor aul fella. Trying to tip home in his car after three or four pints in the local. Now on top of having to contend with guards and fairy forts now he has to deal with meteorites flying around the place and flying saucers going back and forth.

You'd need to be on your game. You can forget about drink driving exemptions down there lads.

So what you're actually saying is that aliens are out there, visiting our planet, the people in the Pentagon have knowledge and possibly proof of this...but they're not telling us cause they think the aliens are...demons?

Yeah that's totally plausible

Lol, A Taxi out in the sticks is rarer than a UFO .. I would believe it was an alien spacecraft, but would be VERY skeptical if someone actually reported a sighting of a Taxi

Ahh shur, twas only one a dem auld meteoritey thingumajiggys - so says the absolute armchair authority avaiation "expert" Gerry Byrne.
Im sorry Mr Byrne

(Aviation journalist Gerry Byrne said: "In all probability they were meteorites and it's not uncommon for meteorites to come in at a low angle, a low trajectory into the Earth's atmosphere.")

I would love Mr Byrne to tell us all how many meteorites he has seen come alongside and aircraft and veer north at high speed. Or climb away at hight speed.

Last time I checked, shooting stars do not change speed or direction - of course maybe Mr Byrne who obvioualy knows infinitely more than the rest of us on the matter can educate us on the aerodynamics of shooting stars, and how they like to change speed and direction.

I would love to hear it.

False info you really should listen to someone who knows what happened. Different defence contractors were bidding also included https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/index.html

Defence contractors were very interested in securing access to the classified stuff.

George Knapp addresses all the Skeptic questions during this interview.

A Pentagon UFO program was disclosed to the public last year. The guy who ran this said there are multiple programs run by other agencies but they are not going to be spoken about as they are still classified. They also have more UFO videos not declassified yet.

Sure what else could it realistically be except a legit 100% Alien encounter. They had one look a Leitrim from a distance and thought, fck it, we'll head to somewhere else where's there at least a sign of intelligent life.

Wake up sheeple!

I've seen the top secret ultra classified US millitary papers on the internet. They are really top-top-top secret. I've seen them like.
