Full Description & Details

I saw 3 times sky lighting up in different areas towards Darwin east rural area. Although other people I know spoke of other sightings and reported power failures and cars not starting, I only saw the sky light up 3 times this night and then again twice on another night.

I did not experience power failure but the lights in my house did flicker.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

An American B2 stealth bomber stopped in Darwin on route to Guam some days previous. The US military were reported to be trialling a new spy plane in Darwin. People I spoke with suspected that maybe the US had perfected the Electro Magnetic Pulse which could explain power surges and failures including cars and machinery.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I had my first sighting last year which was a silver orb that rotated in the center. This sighting lasted 15 seconds before the object disappeared before my eyes in broad daylight. At first I thought it was a helicopter. I have always believed that some ufo sightings are real, some are faked and many are the result of natural phenomena or man made objects.

Other Comments

Over the last 10 years there has been an increase in sightings in the Northern Territory and Darwin in particular. This report was submitted because Tahmoor is a long way from Darwin.
