SIGHTING: PILTOWN, KILKENNY (IRELAND)

Witness Testimony

"on the 12 of august at 11:25 pm me and my family waited out the back of the house scanning the skies for the meteor shower happening that night, and as i looked to the south east i looked at the horizon and saw what looked like a star but after a few seconds i could see it was getting closer. It flew in a direct flight path, and was golden in appearance and was pulsating brighter and brighter . This object was moving slowly enough that it lasted over 2 minutes . It was totally silent moving from SE to SW. I could see also that as it passed over my house apart from the pulsating orb itself all around it the sky glowed to a certain extent . And as a UFO believer i couldn't take my eyes off it, it was as if I was glued to the ground i stood, the fact that we don't see a lot of UFO's or rarely here about them here in Ireland it left me more bewildered gazing at it. It was quite a weird feeling after seeing it as it would have been very large if it wasn't as high up. I lost sight of the object then when i passed the horizon again. as it was my first sighting I now know to run and get a camera as it would of been able to be picked up on film . All I can say is I hope I get to see more."
