Light over Perth, WESTERN · Australia
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
While looking at the sky I noticed one cloud was quite bright compared to the others, initially I thought the moon was behind it making it glow but the light was a bright blue colour. I stared at it for a good 30 seconds trying to figure out if it was a light beam from some sort of attraction or night club, even though there are none in the area. The light then darted to the left and the whole cloud disappeared. I didn’t see it go across the sky, I’m not sure if it was too fast for me to see or if the light/cloud only moved fast and suddenly for a certain distance

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.
