Thought we saw a drone that appeared and descended and hovered in virtually in same spot for 45mins-1hn

We were staying at White Sands estate near Bicheno Tasmania. We decided to go for a walk at about 430 in the morning to see if we could spot an aurora. We positioned ourselves just slightly south of the white sands Estate on the rocks next to the water. standing there stargazing we thought we saw what we perceived as a drone dropping from higher up and then hovering about 20 m to 30 m maybe off the surface of the water. It’s stayed rather stationary for that time. I took a few photos with my phone only, and then noticed the other what seemed like weird shaped objects in the photos too. Time and date stamps are on the photos. I can also send through others that haven’t been adjusted for light etc. Zoom in on the photos will show you the different details etc.
While watching there seemed to be an object flash,looked a bit like a piece of rope, almost but glowing that seem to eject out the top left hand portion at about 11 o’clock and then later, looking in the photos, it appeared and stayed at that position for the hour

Strange orange light in Australia.

I was inside and I saw a bright orange light appear In the sky, the moment the light started a dog nearby howled and my dogs woke up. This light for around 20 seconds then turned off.

Wondering what this was I looked on google sky map on my phone to see if it was a planet or the moon, however it was not.

I then looked on a flight radar website to see if it was a commercial or cargo plane however there were none above the state or in the direction of the light.

The light then came back on in the sky very bright orange and then turned off after about 10 seconds

Plane without engine pods or sound flys overhead

The three of us were in the street at the front of a friends house working on a car engine at about 2PM. Two of us had our heads under the hood and were busy when the third person told us to look up at the plane. The weather was clear blue sky. The plane looked like a Boeing 747 or larger and was travelling from East to West at a height of between about 1500 and 2000 feet, or about 4 hand spans at arms length. The plane produced a contrail (chemtrail?) from the trailing edges of all wing and tail components. There were no engine pods observable on the aircraft anywhere, there was no noise at all. There were no beacon light flashing on the aircraft?. If you look at a map of Hobart the plane was flying over the top of the city and most of the suburbs of the city. It was coloured dark grey (battleship grey?). There were a large number of ribs running under the wings (in parallel with the fuselage. The plane was free of any identifying nember or letters that I could see.

Location: Newtown, TAS (Australia), , Australia

Shape: Egg
Characteristics: Changed Colo

I was in my room, and I saw to lights in the sky, they hovered over me for a few minutes, and then shoot off toward the mountain.

I was in my room about 1.30 am, when I looked out my window (facing south), when a pair of bright lights came into view. They flew over the district at fantastic speed, and I hurried out the backyard to investigate. To my amazment, above my neighbours house were two egg-shaped looking craft. They were red at first, and then orange the moment after. I hurried into the house, where I awoke my son. We were only quick enough to get outside to witness the craft, flying away toward the mountain again at fantastic speed. It made a whirling noise as it flew off north toward the mountain.

Shape: Fireball


30+ orange balls playing in Australia

In 1982 when I was 12 years old my father, mother, sister and I were returning home from my uncles farm along an unsealed road which was a short cut back to our house. There was a few houses along the road but mainly just fields where sheep, horses and cows grazed. This was our usual route home and there was rarely anything to see. In the distance we witnessed what appeared to be fireworks so as we got closer my father pulled over and stopped the car. Approximately 100 yards away we noticed that it wasn't fireworks as there was no one to ignite them and they larger perfectly rounded balls of a fiery orange color. They were the size of the inflatable "fit balls" used in gyms. These balls of orange seemed to be playing in the long dry grass. Some rose above the ground slowly and then seemed to hover 10ft in the air while others moved in rapidly in all directions. There was approximately 30 but may have been more and they all moved independently . We ! sat in the car puzzled as to what we were seeing. We watched for a few minutes as these balls of light moved everywhere and with more acceleration and at a speed I've never seen before or since. They moved up and down and left and right,some hovering together while others moved around them. There was no noise only the lights. After several minutes of watching from inside of the car we got out of the car and as we did the balls of light scattered off and disappeared over the hill into the next gully. The speed at which they flew off over the hill was incredible. We talked all the way home about what we'd witnessed but when we went to bed that night my mother who was a school teacher said we can't tell anyone about this as only crazy people saw things like this. This happened in Australia's smallest state of Tasmania, an island state south of mainland Australia where there is no air force and limited army facilities. It was on privately owned farm land with the nearest house! a few miles away. As I was only 12 at the time I always thoug! ht I'd s ee something like this again but now nearly 40 years later I've never seen or even heard of anything like this again. All I know is that they were (1)UNIDENTIFIED (2)FLYING (3)OBJECTS
