Sighting at the Oaks, NSW.
Date: Monday 24th January 2011
Time: 9:43pm
Location: The Oaks (South Western NSW)
Conditions: Slight cloud cover over the lower North region of the sky. No moon present
Description of event as described by witness:
I walked outside my house facing North East (Approx 30 degrees). The object looked like a bright satellite (and of similar size) which caught my attention. The object was travelling at approx the same speed as a satellite.
The object then split into three identical objects (lights) and moved into a “V” formation. The objects were approx 3 finger spaces apart (with my arm fully extended), travelling North. They travelled from above me heading north as far as I could see. I watched the objects move across the sky for approx 45sec.
From the South another object (point of light) appeared. This came from the direction of the Southern Cross and crossed the sky following/chasing the other 3 objects. The object took approx 20 seconds to cross the sky and the fourth object caught up to the three objects then disappeared over the horizon.
