Waterford (Republic of Ireland)

Sighted on Wednesday 30. April 2003
Reported on
Shape: Light | Duration: 5min
Source:

Very bright light seen above Waterford Ireland early evening 30/4/03A bright light appeared in the sky above the Waterford area of Ireland. It was too early in the evening to be a star but that's exactly what it looked like. At first I thought it was a reflection of an aircraft as it was a bright evening but it suddenly disapeared and a minute later reappeared in a slightly different location. There was sum cloud around but not in this area of the sky. It was moving in a westerly direction and after five minutes of appearing and disappearing, it just disappeared altogether.
