10.00 min. | 4.49 user rating		 another one! peace :) An astronomer says a bright spiralling light spotted in the sky by people across eastern Australia this morning was probably a satellite, space junk or a rocket. The UFO was seen moving through the sky just before sunrise in New South Wales, Queensland and the ACT. ABC News Online has received dozens of emails, pictures and videos from those who were awe-stricken by the huge white light. Some described it as a "lollipop-type swirl". Others say it hovered for a while before gradually moving in an eastern direction until it was out of sight. Those who saw the object say photos do not reflect how large it actually was. Geoffrey Whyatt from the Sydney Observatory says it was probably a satellite, space junk or a rocket. "The fact that you've got the rotation, the spiral effect, is very reminiscent of the much widely reported sightings from Norway and Russia last year, which both turned out to be a Bulava missile which was being adjusted in its orbit," he said.

news.sky.com Two of Australia's biggest movie stars have been in London to promote their new film. Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman were on the red carpet in London's Leicester Square for the UK premiere of 'Australia' directed by Baz Luhrmann. Sky's showbiz correspondent Steve Hargrave was there to meet them.
2.25 min. | 4.25 user rating		 Friday morning on checking the weather at my front veranda as I usually do a unit appeared in the north north eastern sky and paused then started a treck across the sky toward the south. I grabbed my camera from inside and these three short clips are the result. The first is in colour mode m focus to infinity. The next is with nightshot turned on. The third is a second unit in the western sky ten minutes later with super nightshot mode. Both were solid light, none strobing and within 5km all shots, no sound was heard or recorded. As the first unit was 3/4 travelled across the passage I received a light flash from a 3rd unit higher and to the east of the first just prior to losing shot. Included are still frame shots with enhancements from night session 19th Feb as no still frame shots of the units of the 25th were taken. All my videos are shot from my property located at Greta, NSW Australia for more stills (near 2000) see my Flickr pages, or RealUFOs.ning.com thanks. www.flickr.com realufos.ning.com
