RAAF has no plans to seek car-sized UFO
An unidentified flying object much bigger then a
family car" is lying at the bottom of Encounter Bay
Victor Harbor, after plummeting to earth soon after
midday on Saturday.
The object, unofficially logged as a meteorite by the
RAAF base at Edinburgh, was seen by dozens of people
from as far south as post MacDonnell in the South-East
and south-Western Victoria.
Senior Constable G.A. Clemow, of Beachport, said he and
several other Beachport people had seen a large, smoke-
colored vapor trail left by the object as it speed past
at cloud height.
The trail had taken more then five minutes to begin
dispersing. Sen Const Clemow said a thornleigh farmer
Mr.Neil Sutherland, had told him the object looked like
a rocket, with a propeller-like device at the rear, fins
and a fair bit of red paint.
Mr.Sutherland had described the fast-moving tube as much
bigger then a family car.
Beachport resident Mr Gary Chambers said he had seen the
object for only a few seconds as it came down.
It looked like a falling star, but in broad daylight,
Mr Chambers said it was very high up I thought it burned
up above the horizon.
Mr George Thorn, of Victor Harbor said his wife had seen the
object falling towards the sea. Moments later, though
binoculars, he had seen what he thought at the time to be a
very large red and white boat bobbing up and down in the
heavy swell, about five kilometres offshore.
It had sunk monents later and three boats found nothing.
Police and RAAF Officials said they knew of no plans to look
for the object, lying in at least 20 fathoms of water.
A department spokesman in Adelaide said no RAAF Hercules had
reported anything and there was no sighting on any radar
screens. He said the department would investigate but he knew
only what had been reported. He said he was curious about a
witness who described the object as looking like a "cruise
missile."
What does a cruise missile look like I work in defence I've
never seen one, he said as for the chance that the object was
an extraerrestrial that not show up on radar, the spokesman
said with a chuckle: "There's a possibility it could be
anything, if in fact there is something, but at the moment we
know nothing."
