Bright, fast-moving objects reported by flights off Ireland; space debris or meteoroid suspected, investigation underway
To the point
Two commercial flights near Ireland observed bright, fast-moving lights likely from space debris or a meteoroid fragment reentering the atmosphere, a view supported by Apostolos Christou of the Armagh Observatory and Planetarium, with investigators conducting a confidential inquiry and noting that November is a busy period for such activity and there was no collision risk.
