Full Description & Details

Our dog drew our attention to the unusual light in the sky as he was whimpering and growling as he watched it from our second storey balcony.

What we saw could be described as a very bright orange spherical light, about the size of a one or two dollar coin ($A) when held at arms length.

Our home is at Palm Beach, overlooking a park and faces directly ESE. The light was directly to the east, over the Rockingham oval or Dixon Rd area.

We watched it move above the treetops in Rotary Park, 500m from our home and as it tracked from right (sth) to left (north) across our vision, it was low in the sky, moved up and down and was moving quicker than a conventional aircraft and much faster than an ultra light.

There was absolutely no noise associated with it. The evening was clear and with little wind. We see all sorts of aircraft here as we are adjacent to HMAS Stirling, Garden Island - RAN Fleetbase West and are very accustomed to helicopters, ultralight and planes.

The light moved out over Cockburn Sound in a northwest direction so we were then looking at it north of our house. It moved from its low position and went upward, continuing to move away and gain in altitude going northerly.

It was then I was able to see it in our telescope as it moved away to the north. It was a spherical illuminated object, orange in colour. As it moved away, and at all times that we observed it, it was bright and orange in colour.

Witness Background

Female, Consultant. Male, General Manager. Dog, Jack Russell/terrier cross.

Other Comments

Our dog is very sensitive to our surroundings and commands a terrific view from our 5m x 5m balcony overlooking Rotary Park. He is the one who should be credited with alerting us to this UFO. As a matter of interest, he does not react to aircraft, or cars or vehicles.
