MUFON Case # 138001

Fawkner, Victoria, Australia

I was working in my study at home, between 3 pm to 6 pm, it was daylight savings time. I felt an urge to “go outside and look up”. It was not a voice, just a feeling.

I saw, at about 100 meters distance, at around 50 – 80 meters altitude, a bronze-colored Cylindrical UFO, which almost looked like an Oil Barrel, coming towards me, at a horizontal distance of 50 meters.

Once the craft passed the front of my home, I had another feeling to “meet at the park”. At this point in the time I was feeling concerned, I recall having a million thoughts go through my mind and ultimately I was worried that I would not return to my family or that something bad would happen, I decided not to proceed to meet at the park.

The craft continued southward, towards Tullamarine Airport. I observed the craft until I could no longer see it bigger than a dot. The craft has never returned since.

The color was bronze (goldish), and the sun reflected off the body at one point in time. The craft

made no sound whatsoever. The craft did not have any lights, antenna, or anything poking out of it. The surface of the craft was very smooth, there were no seams or rivets/bolts visible at all. The craft did not have any wings and did not have any visible propulsion system (e.g. no fire, smoke, steam, etc.)

The craft rotated in a counterclockwise direction. The craft did not wobble at all, it was extremely stable traveling in one direction from North to South in a straight line.

The size of the craft was slightly bigger than a full-sized bus. The speed at which the craft passed by my house was around approx. 3 to 5 kph. Weather conditions on the day at the time of the incident were Blue Sky, with no wind, around 28 degrees C, and no clouds anywhere.

The area where this incident occurred is in a flight path for aircraft that go to and from Tullamarine Airport. An FOI request for visual sightings by control tower and radar detection has been done, but resulted in no documents being provided, although the FOI request was answered ambiguously, for whatever reason.

There were 2 inscriptions that I noticed but am unable to remember exactly. All I recall was that the

inscriptions looked like a cross between ancient Hebrew and Egyptian glyphs or similar to the Caret symbols.

I have made a 3D drawing of the craft in great detail, which is attached to this report. I have tried to

replicate as best I can, including the ridges on each end of the craft. I have used simple ancient Hebrew letters to give an impression of what I saw as some kind of insignia, although these letters are just an example as I cannot remember the exact shape of them.
