On Sunday, August 18, 1996, a woman and her family spotted
a UFO near Bundaberg, Australia, a city on the Queensland coast
250 kilometers (150 miles) north of Brisbane.
"It was a bright orange saucer-shaped object," Helen M. said.
She and her family were staying in Bargara, east of Bundaberg,
with another family and helping with the sugar cane harvest.
"I was outside...when I noticed what appeared to be a sunrise coming
up on the horizon. At that time, the sun had already gone down
behind the property. A saucer-shaped object rose rapidly into the
sky, then was stationary for a short while before descending again.
I had enought time to ask the people what it was, and they said
they didn't have a clue," although one man thought it might have
been a fireworks display in Bundaberg.
"It wasn't particularly attractive or interesting to look at," Helen
added. "What's more, it didn't disintegrate as it went below the
horizon but remained solid." (Unsolicited Email)
