EERIE LIGHTS IN THE SKY IN SYDNEY, WOLLONGONG AND CANBERRA EARLY TODAY PROMPTED MULTIPLE UFO SIGHTINGS UP AND DOWN THE EAST COAST.
People reported throughout the states say they witnessed a mysterious light travelling in an erratic fashion across the sky in the early morning hours.
One caller told the ABC that she saw a light 'racing across the sky' about 5.50am Saturday.
She described the light as 'like a lollipop swirl' that came from the west and was headed east out to sea.
"It was unreal," she said.
"There was a cloud in the sky - just this light with a swirl in the middle." Another said:"It was a perfect spiral of light.
"I realised soon it was not the moon but that it was shooting like a comet from the southern sky and off into the northwest.'
Another Brisbane resident said: "There was absolutely no sound in a perfectly clear, darkened sky before dawn.'
Police and search and rescue crews confirmed they had received calls from Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast about the UFO.
The weather bureau said there were no weather conditions which would explain the light. A Defence spokeswoman also said she had no explanation.
