Two suns flying over our heads in Co. Tyrone, Northern IrelandOctober 1995

It was a clear enough night in October 1995 as far as I remember and myself and my girlfriend at the time were walking up to my friend’s sister’s house as he was babysitting and wanted some company. He lived up in the country above my village in Sion Mills, Co. Tyrone so it was a really dark road with no street lights at all. We were walking along the road hand in hand talking and I was looking at the ground just to see where I was going when I saw what looked like two circles of light on the ground about a foot in front of us as if someone was standing over us pointing two torches at the ground. As soon as I saw this I squeezed my girl’s hand in fear and we both looked up to see what looked like two suns flying over our heads at a good speed. They were only in view for about three seconds but I still remember them to this day as they flew over our heads and over the hill at the top of the lane. I cant remember if they made any sound although I don’t think that they did and I’m not sure how high in the sky they were as I don’t know what size they were but they were about the size of two suns and that’s the only way I can describe them. They were bright and orange in colour though not so bright that they lit up the countryside just bright enough for us to see them shining on the ground. I’ve never forgotten this and although my girlfriend and I have split up since we still talk about it whenever we see each other.
