An observer reported an oval shaped object, the colour was bright white. It sped from west to east. The size was of a small car. The speed was faster that anything the witness had ever observed. The experience left the witness scared. Keith Douglass UFORAS

Robert said he saw 3 very bright yellow golden lights. The first one came in from the north and hovered over the top of Castle Hill which is in the center of town, then a 2nd light came in to join the other one ?then a third light came and joined the two. They stayed there for approximately 10 minutes ?wow? the whole town must have seen them. They faded out one by one, then nothing. Robert Frola AUFORN

The witness turned on an exterior light at an outside shed. Almost at once he noticed to his south something very low beyond trees at a paddock’s edge some 200 m distance. It looked like a rectangular structure about the size of a house. It was illuminated by an orange glow. It seemed to have some vapour about it. As he watched for about 10 seconds it seemed to be rising up and tilted at an angle. It just faded out of sight as he watched. He enquired at a nearby house the next day but no other witnesses were located. The sighting location had no unusual marks or traces.

Just want to report a couple of sightings I had a few years ago, I thought about reporting them to the authorities but decided against it. I am a former Army Reserve Soldier and former Manager in a Government Commission, in both cases I was trained to observe and report details meticulously. (See other report 09.09.01 nr. Mt Gambier, SA 2115hrs (NL)

My first sighting was at 2.15am on July 15th 1999 on the Highway between Mount Gambier and Naracoorte. I was travelling in the direction of Mt. Gambier, approximately 10 Km north of the Nangwarry township. It was a relatively clear night with some scattered low clouds and some ground mist. I was travelling at about 120 Km/hr listening to the radio when it cut out. As I looked over to the radio my eyes caught sight of some lights in the sky, three of them in a triangle formation.

As I looked harder I noticed the area inside the triangle was black (ie no stars while the surrounding sky had stars in it.) I looked at the vehicle clock instinctively to record the time and noted it was 2.15am. At this point I temporarily ran off the road (fortunately not hitting anything). After slowing down and regaining control I noted that the triangle was now a little ahead of me, as it flew over some pine forest about a Kilometer away I could see its lights striking the top of the pines so it was at that time flying low. I stopped my vehicle, to ensure that it was really moving and not my imagination and it continued to move, still basically parallel to the road. I restarted and accelerated up to 140 Km/hr but it continued ahead of me and started to gain height. It then flew into a normal looking white cloud which was only marginally bigger than it was and it never re-appeared . As it disappeared the radio came back on. I checked the time and it was 2.19am so it only lasted 4 minutes.

The rest of the vehicles electrical system was not disrupted in any way. I would estimate that the size of the triangle based upon when it flew low over the pines would place it at around 150-200 feet long and about 3/4 as wide (although it was veiwed from an angle so it may have been wider).

Alan said he as never reported anything before but felt he had to report this sighting. He said he saw 8 orange stars and these stars where moving south east. "I have never seen orange stars fly by before." "Do you get many reports of orange flying stars at all?" He also said he reported it to the 1900 number and had to pay to talk. Ross told him they where garbage bags. Alan said they didn’t look like garbage bags to him. Robert Frola AUFORN

Viewed from Sawtell (south of Coffs Harbour) N.S.W. Tuesday 20th. July 1999. 9.50pm.

Mr. Dare Taylor and his wife were driving home on the Pacific Highway, when they noticed two orange/yellow lights approaching them at what appeared to be fairly low altitude and heading S.W.

When almost directly overhead, they noticed that they were slowly ‘pulsing’. Suddenly, the two objects changed direction sharply towards the east. When they turned, their slow speed dramatically increased, as ‘they quickly gained altitude to a great height, faster than a jet’, stated Mr. Taylor. As they were speeding off, they appeared to fade on-and-off or ‘pulse’ even faster. Mike Farrell UFORNSW
