News states:
An eagle-eyed listener to the 3AW Afternoon program believes he may have filmed a UFO in the skies above Melbourne last week.
'Ivan' says his neighbour called out to him early last Tuesday evening telling him to look up at a strange light.
"It was this bright object flying around, quite a pace, doing unusual turns and what have you. I was looking at it for about 10 mins" Ivan told Denis Walter.
"It was behaving like no aircraft that I have seen, as I was recording I dismissing what it could be, what it could not be, it was really intriguing me" he said.
"I was bewildered by what I was observing," Ivan told reporters. "I looked up in the sky and saw this bright object maneuvering phenomenally. It was descending, and then ascending...it was weird." Ivan described it as a ‘bright star’ which changed through a myriad of colours as it pulsated across the sky. "It was blue, then it changed to green, then to red, and bright white...it was astounding to watch." Ivan recorded the rare phenomenon on his phone for about eight minutes, but says the spectacle hovered in the sky for about an hour.He said there was talk among his neighbours that there was another reported sighting as far west as Bacchus Marsh. A self-described sceptic of super-natural events, Ivan said he is at a loss to explain the evidence. "I’ve reviewed the footage to try and determine what this thing is and what it isn’t, but I don’t know what it is. "I'm no expert...I'm not presuming it's something from another planet, but with the evidence in front of me, it's hard to dismiss."
