OZ File Sighting Report
August 26th 2003
Report taken from the AUFORN Mailing List
UFO Report Bendigo Victoria August 26th 03
I went outside to smoke. I study the night sky and
am used to seeing the variety of lights evident in
the night sky. Last night Tues 26th Aug 03, at
11.40 0pm, I saw a very strange light the like of
which I have never seen before.
It was not a commercial flight (I know their times
and flight paths) it was not a meteor (it was visible
for much longer than the flash of a meteor) It was
not a satellite (it did not have the constant linear
arc of a satellite) I saw a flashing light in the
northerly direction at about 20 degrees.
Nothing strange about that.
It was travelling at a very very high speed, which
was strange. It was in my estimation at a very very
great height, which was also very strange.
So I studied it.
It was immediately obvious that it was a different
light to anything else I have seen it was faint and
I must say, difficult to watch with the naked eye.
I have a Telescope, but I would not have been
able to track it because of the speed at which it was
travelling. I did not believe I had time to get my
binoculars as I thought I may lose track of it.
This is the strangest part.
The flashing light, travelling at high speed suddenly
darted forward at an even greater speed, so great
that the flashing disappeared, then it appeared again
well forward from where it disappeared, back to its
original but still high speed. It continued to do this
darting (for want of a better word) forward for all the
time it was visible to me.

I have tried to depict its path in the attachment below [not included]
Not only was that strange, here is the strangest part
of the sighting.
It did not hold to its line of flight, but would suddenly
drop down like to a different level I have to admit to
having difficulty in describing its behaviour but to put
it in one sentence it went like this.
Flashing light, very distant, very high, travelling at
great speed darting at Even greater speed forward
disappearing then visible at a different Trajectory.
It was first sighted in the north and went out of sight
in the southern sky.
What was it?
