Flaming Mystery in sky over Alice Springs

Alice Springs have received a report of a large  flaming orange
ball hovering in the sky over the town. A man told police he saw
"a fireball" in the eastern sky about 8.40pm on Monday. The
object moved around the sky.

The man estimated it was the size of an aircraft and its
altitude varied from 80 to 400m. During the nine-minute sighting
the object apparently darted around the sky. The man said the
object's movement was totally inconsistent with a hot-air
balloon. The object eventually moved north of Alice Springs and
disappeared.

UFO

Police reported the sighting to aviation authorities. The Alice
Springs Ufologist Keith Douglass did not think the object was
either a meteor or a balloon. "Keith Douglass said: "I suppose
it could have been a meteor burning up in the atmosphere, but it
sounds like it changed direction.

"I've seen Fireballs before but they do not dart around the sky.
These things seem to be controlled". Mr. Douglass said Alice was
a very active area for sightings.

"In fact only a couple of weeks ago we got a report of a nice
green one from someone at Santa Teresa, about 80km south-east of
Alice Springs. DH.


Thank you Keith Douglass for sending me the newspaper clippings
and reports.
