Full Description & Details
On Tuesday August 2nd 2005 and friend and I went down to Cuan Pier, 2 miles outside Ventry Town in County Kerry to star gaze. It was a very clear night, with high tides and strong winds.
The sky was a blaze with stars. We could clearly see the Milky Way. We were looking out for shooting stars and satellites. I had never seen a satellite before and my Friend could not believe this so he was going to point one out. After a few minutes, literally, we had seen about 4 shooting star and I also got to see a satellite. We could also see a planet. We thought it was Venus.
I was saying how amazing it was. Being from Dublin, it was rare to see such a clear night. My friend replied by saying "yes, but I'm really interested to know what that is over there!!"
I looked over and could clearly see the object. It was too far away to see an outline but the object had about 6 pulsating white lights that continuously changes in a sequence. From about 5/6 lights in a linear shape, to 3 lights in a triangular shape to one finite white light, like a hugh star. Over the course of two hours that we watched the object the lights continued to pulse like this.
This is where it gets a bit stranger. It seemed to change sequence for my friend and I at different times!!! For example, I said "look its gone from 3 light to a single light" and my friend replied "no, it still has all it's lights from what I can see".Then when I could see it had pulsed to all lights on my friend said "now, look it's a triangle of 3 lights...now 1!!" It was like our perseptions of the object were on different time scales!!
It was stationary in the sky for approximately 1 hour. Then it suddently jolted position to the left. About a minute or two later we saw a plane flying byfrom left to right. Its altitude was a lot lower that the object. I then suggested to my friend this is why the object moved suddently!
Then a while later another object appeared from the right. It was relatively smaller to the first sighted object but a lot bigger that the stars. It flew over and retreated in the same directions within minutes.
We watched the object until the night sky changed into dawn sky. Then suddenly the oject pulsated to a single light and the light seemed to be sucked out of the sky. It disappered in a split second.
I told some other firends about the expereince and some of them suggested that it was a helicopter or the Discovery Shuttle but I know this is not the case. It was no helicopter and since the discovery shuttle was ouside the Earth's Orbit I don't think it would have been visable to the naked eye.

What I saw cannot be rationalised into anything other that it was. A sighting of 2 UFOs.
