Special Note: I have been informed by my good friend and UFO researcher from Australia, Alan Ferguson, that he heard that the spiral phenomena can be written off as a rocket launch by an exploration company. At this point, we have no confirmation that this is true. When new info is received, we will update the Australia spiral files. (B J Booth)

See images and video below article. We have combined three separate videos of the unknown object.

Editor's Note: There have been a number of photographs and videos taken of a type of aerial phenomena in Australia the last couple of days. Information on these sightings is coming in, and more information will be forthcoming.

We will update this report as we receive more information. If you have video or still photographs of this event, send it to us, and we will publish on the Net.

Scores of people from across the country have been stunned to see what appears to be an unidentified flying object flying across the sky.

Readers from South Australia, NSW, Queenland and Victoria have sent in photos of a mysterious object that spiralled across the night sky at around 5:45 AM this morning.

It was described as a swirling light that moved from east to west across the sky for several minutes just before sunrise.
