Full Description & Details

I have seen these flashing lights in the night sky before on various occations and with different people but not like this night. This night anyhow i was just seeing my misses off at about 10:15. I looked up at about a 45% angle to the north to see a quick bright flash. I asked my girl to run inside to get my dad {hes right into space and all that stuff} because on about 6 occations earlier i had taken my eye off it and it just disappered. So i kept my eyes on directy at the point of the first flash while my dad ran outside. It was flashing at about 10 to 40 second intervals [irregular] was located in between a triangle of 3 stars which we used as a reference position to see which direction it was treveling in. I would fash in one spot maybe twice then move to the right a bit, then it would be a bit higher and back to the left side [of the reference points] then back down a bit lower than the position it had flashed at 5 mins previous, but as i said irregular. Anyhow after about 20 mi it started to flash duller. It did this around 3 times and my old man said, "can u still see it?" Yeah its still there, just getting duller. [When the flashes started to dull down, it stayed in the same place.] Just then about a 30 seconds later it flashed twice quickly and looked like a big shooting star that fell very quick almost straight down, a nnw in direction. It looked like it went behind some hills.

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

No, i have seen plenty of satelites aircraft. Alot of people around this area have seen this flashing thing. If it is man-made its only known about high up in the military i bet and probably not Australias military.

A few different trade jobs

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I have always been interested in space and whats up there and a big believer in science and have always thought that something else must be alive up there. I have read and seen some things but not that much. Now i read a bit more.
