The BBC are claiming it crashed into Lough Neagh.

Not where I saw it from.

Some woman on the Nolan Show this morn said she seen one over Omagh last night.

I f**king seen it in the same area, I swore it was a firework, it was a green flash, scary shit!

I definetly seen something in the sky last night, between Dromore and Hillsborough on the A1, i thought it was fireworks as well, then i heard all this news this morning on the way to work,

I have never saw one myself. If I had saw it I probably wouldn't have known what it was I seen.

Breaking News - Fireball reported over Ireland!

Reports are coming in of a Fireball event over Ireland yesterday evening (Weds 3rd Feb).

There were two separate events! The first, and almost certainly the most important, was at about 17.50 yesterday, and seems to have travelled from Kerry at least as far as Armagh and South Tyrone. That one may have been a 'meteorite dropper', though it's too early to say.

The second, not as big or bright, but at least as bright as Venus, was at about 19.30 - 19.40, more than 1.5 hours later. It was seen from near Moy, and in a NE direction. I have a very good eyewitness who can take us to the exact spot he was standing in his yard, and give an exact trajectory relative to a nearby tree.

If you saw this event, and especially if you have any photos, video footage from security cameras or anything please email the Webmaster at pevans@hotmail.co.uk  with details of what you saw, your location, the direction of travel, the time, an estimate of the brightness, and any colour,  the duration of the event and any other description - sound heard, smoke effects etc

Breaking News - Fireball reported over Ireland!

Hardly breaking news, we've been talking about it since last night

This is clear evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iran. We must invade and liberate their oil immediately.

Fireball spotted over Ireland
Wednesday, 3 February 2010 22:17
Astronomy Ireland says a major fireball was spotted over Ireland at around 6pm this evening.

It says the rock from space was seen blazing in the air by people all over the country.

There are reports that the fireball has landed in a field near Crimlin in Co Cavan.

AdvertisementAstronomy Ireland says it is unlikely to have injured anyone as it would have slowed down when it hit the atmosphere.

Valentia Coastguard said it has had reports of sightings from people living in Mullingar, Limerick, Ballybunion and Bantry.

If you have any photos or video of the fireball you can send them to yourphotos@rte.ie

I'd say that idiotic comment was a collaboration between Astronomy Ireland's website and a typically lazy hack who didn't do even basic research.

[The Watcher Pat]

Says people in Craigavon seen it on BBC website, even if it was massive and came down in Craigavon you wouldn't notice it. Might even do a bit of good!

[sandwiches_in_the_boot]

There was a person from Gweedore saying on Matt Cooper that she seen it and it was heading out to sea.

All these people saying it came down near them, when it was actually far away and just going out of sight.
