Initial data

Initial information from sources or from an eyewitness

Incident date:

13.02.1976 04:00

Location:

между Тарралеем и Берридейлом TAS

Australia

The truck driver saw a bright object ahead on the left. He was low above the ground. The lantern maintained its position relative to his truck for some time, so the driver woke up his companion.

According to the driver, the object was located at a distance of about one kilometer at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level. Two men tried to use a transistor radio, but until the end of the observation, it reproduced only static interference.

According to their assessment, the object was 10 meters in diameter with a dome at the top.

After walking 60 kilometers, they stopped to change the driver. When they did, the UFO fell within 300 meters of their truck and then hovered nearby.

When they started moving again, the UFO crossed the road and flew next to them again at different distances until sunrise.

A small orange light accompanied the main object in the second half of the observation.
