- HBCC UFO Research Note: In the newspaper article it mentions
a gentleman by the name of Tim Webster who was one of the main eyewitnesses
to this unusual event. Plus there were many, many more people who watched
the strangeness in the sky. I called Mr. Tim Webster at his home in Australia
and did a telephone interview with him which you can listen to here:

- UFOs Spotted Over Melbourne
-
- By Matthew Schulz
- The Herald Sun
- 5-15-5
-
- What are orange, hover high in the sky over the eastern
suburbs and form strange, intricate patterns?
-
- If witnesses to the strange phenomenon seen on Friday
night are to be believed, the answer could be alien spaceships.
-
- The mystery developed at 10.30pm when about a dozen of
the orange lights were seen hovering over Ferntree Gully.
-
- Tim Webster, 23, of Upwey, admits he was looking forward
to an alien abduction as he photographed the lights on his phone-camera.
-
- "I was really hoping they were going to land. I
was like, 'Take me! Take me!' Seriously, the galaxy is too big for us to
be alone.
-
- "They were too high for fireworks, higher than a
jet and creating patterns that no aircraft could ever do."
-
- Mr Webster called his friend Aaron Singe, 22, who was
at Mountain Gate shopping centre.
-
- "Tim just said, 'look outside, you're not going
to believe it'," Mr Singe said. "I'm pretty hard to convince
about this sort of thing, but this is too weird."
-
- Another friend, Stuart Wilson, 24, managed to take video
footage of the lights.
-
- The shaky video shows a dozen pricks of light forming
shapes such as diamonds, lines, characters and what looks like the Southern
Cross.
-
- The lights were visible for 10 minutes before flying
in different directions and vanishing, Mr Wilson said.
-
- "It's possible aliens are driving them, but until
I see one I'm not going to be convinced," he said. "This is pretty
close, but I didn't see any little green men."
-
- But Mr Webster didn't need convincing.
-
- "I was never into sci-fi but now I'm going to do
my homework on UFOs," he said.
-
- Local pizza shop manager Ned Bulic also took phone pictures
and said: "They were definitely alien UFOs. Nothing else could have
moved like that."
-
- Police contacted Melbourne Airport after reports came
in from Hallam to Boronia but there were no anomalies on the radar.
