Appearance / Description of Object(s)Orange orb / bulb rectangular on both ends of a tubular (grey/brown) craft. The orange bulb was bright. Size of Object(s)It looked like it was hovering right outside the window, so was about 10-12m long by about 3m across, and about 2m high. Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeHovering outside window, which would have been about 20m off the ground Description of Area / SurroundingsUrban, would have come down an hovered over the harbour, passed by our meeting slowly, the reason why no-one else saw it was - there was a curtain, and the presenter was well versed in ensuring that everyones attention was focused on him - he reigned in wandering eyes. Full Description & DetailsMissed an opportunity last evening. Was listening to a presentation by a dude from NSN Munich on SmartGrid technologies waiting for the presentation to get interesting. Nice 3D slides. Got distracted and started looking out the window towards the darling harbour city skyline. It was about 5.30pm and I saw what I've waited my life to see - an object panned across my line of sight, out across the skyline before disappearing. It was tubular (grey/light brown) with an orange bulb on each end. I looked on the internet and there was another sighting (orange object - different angle) - same darling harbour backdrop).
Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?Window cleaner (but it was after hours, and they normally clean up and down - but not across). Australia is very unionised and they would not be cleaning after hours in that pattern. Witness BackgroundOccupation: Senior Security Engineer, work for Nokia Siemens Networks, in Pyrmont, Sydney, Australia. I'm from New Zealand. Views on UFOs, before and after sightingInvestigated sightings in Project Blue Book when I was at school and have been an avivd watcher for years but have not seen anything. Have seen another object since on NYE in Hamilton NZ, for which there was another witness. Might report this one too. Other CommentsThere was another person who saw an orange orb, and recorded a film of it on youtube, it had subsequently been taken down. Also the movement of the object was eratic - not the same as this one - nor the one I saw on NYE.
