Flash over Roseberry (Tasmania)(Australia) · Australia
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was outside stargazing and feeding my nighttime animals when I saw this flash of light. I looked up and I could not see anything but then this thing flashed like like you would see a flash of lightning but it was much smaller and brighter. And when it flashed I could see something some sort of object the flash would go to and it go up and move. I know it was a UFO because I'm always outside looking at the stars every single night. This is the second time I saw this UFO and the flash. The first time would be about middle of last month. I only just discovered you guys tonight. This is my third UFO sighting and I have a friend who seen a UFO as well. The UFO moved across the sky it would flash and you could see this object in the brightness of the flash. I could not make out the shape of the object but I knew it something that was not a satellite or the ISS because I see them regularly every night. I knew this had to be a UFO. When I see it again I will take ph! otos of it and send it to you.

What would the paper say?
Australian aerial sighting records answer to the Freedom of Information Act 1982. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
