Orange dots in the sky

    Hi all,

    While on my way home fromwork tonight at about midnight I saw a light in the sky. My first reaction was that it was just a plane. But then I saw 5 more orange lights following behind. There was no sound from them, they moved quite fast, and they were were almost perfectly round, like dots.

    What do you reckon it was. This was over south Dublin, Greenhills area.

    Anybody else see it? Is there like a UFO contact number who can ring?

    if there was do you think the US government would be spending a whole pile of cash sending out beeps and blips into space to contact ET?

    You really shouldn't be drinking at work.

    I can understand why nobody believes me, I'd be the same but try to have an open mind.

    No harm in that really.

    Just ease up on the acid a bit.

    You could try:

    http://www.ufoinfo.com/sightings/ireland.shtml

    or for a list of organisations:

    http://www.ufoinfo.com/organizations/org_eire.shtml

    Do you know what direction the lights were travelling? Were they in a fixed formation? Change direction? I would be prone to believe you of course, many many people have seen unexplained objects in the sky.

    Check out the disclosure project for some good info on the topic: http://www.disclosureproject.org/

    The experts believe full disclosure of the topic will happen very shortly.

    probably a big load of orange flavoured skittles floating around in space.

    Unlikely, orange skittles in space would not be visible - even with a telescope.

    This stuff happens quite a lot actually. There just really isn't much that can be done.

    People see this stuff, but all the can do is tell other people. Who'll generally dismiss them. Until one day they see something, only to be dismissed by everyone else cept the the guy who spoke to them before.

    All in all, some will believe you, most will just think your either lying are too stupid to know what a plane looks like.

    But you'll never get answers.

    I've not personally seen anything like lights in the sky etc. I saw something in broad daylight. I don't talk about it however as its pointless.

    Do I believe in UFO's and all that stuff? Not really. But I find all that stuff interesting anyway, and frankly when you look up a lot of the stuff, I seriously hope its NOT true as its really not good, not good at all. In fact it's pretty horrible.

    I do think somethings going on though as its as clear as day. Plus the facts are very interesting too.

    Anyways, whats funny is, the fact that a US General could come out and say that 20 years ago he order a squadron of F-16's to intercept strange objects in the sky and the planes never returned. He could even provide documents that prove it. And he'll never make the news. Best you'd get is a spot on some cheesy UFO show on youtube of which most people will naturally role their eyes at.

    That's just the way it is.

    Also have a look at this
    and the link in the last posting.

    Funnily enough, last night I was dreaming about building missiles in my lab to destroy meteors heading towards the Earth. The meteors were orange dots at first and followed one by one.

    Missiles worked followed by more horribly unscientific **** like tornados occuring in my garden. :pac:

    We saw them too, it was at about 12.15am. They looked like they were flying from Terenure area heading towards Tallaght, over Tymon Park. We were in the Greenhills area, near the park. We saw 7 in total, 3 of them were close together the other 4 were more spread out. They were travelling as fast as an aircraft (all moving in the same direction) but there was absolutely no sound from them. They were bright orange and we thought they looked like balls of fire.
    We wouldn't have believed it either only for 3 of us saw it together.

    About 5 minutes after they had passed we did see and hear a helicopter, probably the gardai helicopter. These lights definitely were not helicopters or planes.

    We're baffled!!!!:confused:

    OMFG its starting................:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,485 ✭✭✭Thrill


    try to have an open mind.

    O.k., I'll try.

    They could be........oranges from the planet orangeicus, here to extract a terrible revenge on the human race for turning their earth-bound brethren into juice.*





    * could also have been a small meteor shower

    I saw something like this over Terenure near Bushy Park too at night. There were only two of them and they were pretty much next to each other so we all though it was just a plane.

    Doubtful since they were travelling horizontally against the horizon, and spaced out in formation like that.

    They are new shtars in the shky to herald the rebirth of King Billy, who will drive all perfidioush Papishts from the land.

    Isn't is a bit odd though that there are 3 threads, if not more, on the same subject and many people saying they saw the same thing.
