A secret 'X-files' style dossier of UFO sightings in Northern Ireland has been made public for the first time.
Details revealed under the Freedom of Information Act show that 11 sightings have been reported in the area in the past decade.
They range from bright lights to dome-shaped objects, according to the Ministry of Defence log books that list times, dates, places and descriptions.
The busiest year for possible 'space invader' activity in the province was 1999, with five incidents recorded, including two in Co Antrim within 48 hours.
Other reports include 18 lights moving across the sky and an object the size of a bowling ball with red lines on it that "moved fast, then vanished" .
Describing one incident, a witness told the MoD they saw "two egg shaped objects, with red, blue and green coloured lights", adding it was dome shaped at the top but was flat at the bottom.
Every year in the UK, more than 100 UFO sightings are reported to the MoD.
