On Saturday, November 12, 2005, at 10:40 p.m., eyewitness John Law was lying in bed at his home in Christies Beach, near Adelaide, South Australia when he saw a strange light approaching "from just a little south of east."

"I was awake in bed, watching the stars through my bedroom window," John reported, "When the object entered the frame of the window, it was at least as bright as the moon, glowing, slightly reddened, round, more than half the apparent diameter of the moon. No debris or smaller bits falling off."

"It was moving at the same speed that satellites do, or perhaps a little slower. My bedroom has a door to the outside, so I was able to rush outside and to watch from my back yard for about a minute. My house got in the way when I was 5 meters (16 feet) from a 3-meter (10-foot) high wall and looking directly west."

"I ran to a new position further south to get a better angle. The object had disappeared, probably behind a big cloud continuous to the horizon, which, for me, was the trees across the road."

"I was able to see a real satellite due west and near a horizon not obscured by trees that was tracking slightly north of west. I think the satellite and the object were on parallel courses but well-separated. My interpretation is that this object was a near-miss spherical object touching the earth's atmosphere."

"If it was 100 kilometers (60 miles) high, then simple trigonometry gives its diameter as half a kilometer (500 meters or 0.3 miles-J.T.)."

"I called for other people to come, but they were too late."

On Wednesday, November 9, 2005, at 12 noon, eyewitness Alice Briggs was in the yard of her home approximately one mile (1.6 kilometers) outside of Ipswich, Queensland, Australia, when she spotted a Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) F-111 fighter-bomber on final approach. Grabbing her camera, Alice "took this picture of an F-111 going over my house, which is very close to RAAF Amberley (air base)."

"I did not see the object until I magnified the photo, and the object appeared in the photo. As there was only the one plane we were watching in the sky, I'm interested to know what you think."

On Sunday, November 20, 2005, at 12:15 a.m., Brenda Hodgson, 71, was asleep in her bedroom in Ballarat, a city in Victoria state, Australia when she was awakened by strange lights flashing on the wall.

"I live alone, am 71 years old, and this phenomena was very frightening," Brenda reported, "My bedroom was lit up with bright lights, almost blue in colour, and accompanied by tapping sounds about one second apart outside my bedroom window at about 12:15 a.m. It last for about two minutes, then stopped. It seemed almost like a laser beam or something of that nature."

"Could this have been some sort of UFO? I have not reported it, as I did not know who to contact."

On Saturday, November 12, 2005, at 7 p.m., eyewitness Kim Peters, was outdoors in her hometown of Holly, Michigan (population 6,135) when she saw a strange light in the eastern sky.

"As I was looking up at the sky," Kim reported, "I saw the moon. It was kind of cloudy, so it had a fuzzy look at it. I then saw two white balls moving that were right by the moon. These objects were fuzzy also (Meaning they were above the clouds-J.T.). One was larger than the other, one behind the other, going in a quick but smooth motion, and disappeared."

Kim described the UFOs as "white round balls."

"I don't know about the speed," she added, "Maybe as quick as a shooting star, but this was a little slower."

On Monday, November 14, 2005, at 4 a.m., eyewitness R.J. and her 14-year-old daughter were "on top of the porch, smoking a cigarette like we always do, because we don't smoke in the house" when they saw a bizarre object "standing still in the air."

"I was sleeping," R.J. reported, "She called me and said, 'Mom, Mom, come here! Look at this!' So I did. I never ever believe in this kind of stuff, but I became a believer that night."

"I saw a fluorescent type light, like a fluorescent light bulb. It had three colors-red, blue and silver flashing lights-on it. This was not a plane. It was not a planet. I know the difference. Once the sun came up, it was gone. This was a UFO."

"I took two pictures of it with my cell phone, but they're not real clear. You do see the lights, however. Me and my daughter saw this together. It don't matter what anyone thinks or believes. I know! I'm a believer now."

"I wanted to call, but I thought they would think I was crazy. Now I wish I had."
