    OK so roughly round 930pm tonight there were a pair of 'unidentified' hazy lights 'dancing' perhaps over Weston Aerodrome or within a few miles radius of there ...When my relations called me to come see the 'UFOs' I was somewhat sceptical but they sure dont look like any 'searchlights' Ive ever seen -and not like those 'advertising searchlights' that you sometimes see over Dublin city ...Any suggestions /explanations ? They seemed to be 'above the clouds'...They appeared to be 'interacting ' / 'in synch' to some degree circling over a general area of sky for maybe 10-15 minutes...
    Rational explanation ASAP please!

    They aren't UFOs, they are, by your statement, Unidentified Hazy Lights. UHLs.

    Probably just a visual artist testing stuff out.

    It was a tough call. Kildare or West Dublin.
    I went with West Dubln because the OP put Lucan first.

    Didn't see them myself, but I did see adverts for Fossetts circus there a couple of days ago. Maybe they're part of that if they're in the area.

    I was out tonight and saw said 'dancing lights' at 9:35 in the direction of where Weston Aerodrome is. They're just spotlights.

    saw them last night think they were helicopter search lights by the movement of them

    It was shining up rather than down.

    not sure if they are the same but comming out of leixlip last night around 9pm there appeared to be lights shining into the sky from the liffey valley sc direction.

    Its from a fun Fair in Clondalkin ,,, It will be there for the next couple of days ... send out a couple of very strong beams every few mins.

    Okay, I know sometimes the dancing lights are from the circus as I was caught out last year( I thought it was a big fire) but today I and another witness saw an odd light in the sky,(have photos) 7:55pm seen from leixlip louisa bridge station below and slightly to right of moon. Anybody else see it?
    Object looked like sunlight hitting side of passenger liner but was stationary for 15 minotes or more.!!
    Any ideas anyone??!!?!

    I witnessed this. It was definitely UFOs doing reconnaisance missions.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,590 ✭✭✭cfuserkildare


    Don't know about that but only normal explanation I can find is the ISS but don't know if it was in the correct part of the sky at the time. Anybody else???
