These were sighted by hundreds of people and the phones were jammed with people phoning the station to report the activity in the sky. The Chief of Police describe the lights as orange in colour they were flying in formation, and every now and then one or two would leave the formation and fly off in different directions at great speed before returning to the group. On the following morning a local journalist contacted Pine Gap (Joint defence Facility) and asked about the activity the previous night if they were involved etc. he was told what the people saw the night before were "just weather balloons". That evening of the 27th November more calls came into the Police station advising of strange lights bobbing up and dawn and there were many. The Officer instructed his men to go out and investigate the sightings. Two cars were despatched on one of the outer roads and the first officer came across a plastic bag on the side of the road all ready prepared to send off into the sky. The second police car set off along a back road came across a car acting suspiciously, two men were in the car, he asked what they were doing and searched the car to find balloon making equipment in the car asked the two men to accompany him back to the station for questioning, also demanded to see there I.D. the two Americans reluctantly produced there I.D. cards which stated they worked for the Dept. of Joint Facilities at PINE GAP. ( Pine Gap is only about oNe and half hours drive from Alice Spring.) I am awaiting a copy of this video and it will be analysed and will be available for any other group that wish to analyse it also. There are still ongoing sightings in the Northern Territory and various parts of Australia coming in all the time. (our News papers are very controlled as they are not always reported.)
