Startling footage of a possible UFO sighting has emerged after flashing coloured lights were spotted in the sky north of Adelaide.
A woman posted the video on an Adelaide UFO sightings Facebook page, filmed in Robertstown in South Australia’s central north region at 8.45pm on Saturday.
“We were seeing two lights moving up, down, left and right,” the woman’s friend commented on the post.
‘(The lights) shine very brightly and then disappear, only to reappear again.
“This was happening just to the left and below the moon.”
The video captured a series of colorful lights flashing in the sky.
“We’re not quite sure what it could be,” a woman can be heard saying in the background.
“It’s really strange.”
The flickering lights (pictured below) were seen beneath the moon with a woman’s voice on the video calling the sighting “strange.”
Australians were stunned by the couple’s experience and their images.
“How strange,” wrote one.
Others claimed to have seen similar sightings in other parts of South Australia.
“I saw something similar at Semaphore Beach,” said another.
Another wrote: “I saw something today. It wasn’t lights, it was early afternoon, just an object flying too high to be a drone. It moved a bit, then stopped and appeared and disappeared,” one wrote.
A third commented: “I saw something similar about six months ago in the hills. Three coloured lights in a line moving downwards non-stop. I didn’t have my phone on me.”
But not all Australians were convinced the images showed a UFO and believed there was a simple explanation.
“Drones usually have that colored lighting,” one wrote.
Another added: “I’m pretty sure those are drones with those flashing colored lights.”
A third wrote: ‘Maybe someone is playing with drones!’
But one drone pilot noted that drones rarely fly that high.
The possible UFO sighting was filmed in Robertstown, South Australia (pictured) at 8.45pm on Saturday night.
“I’m a high altitude drone pilot (just as a hobbyist), I’m amazed by all these pretty lights. I never capture anything when I’m up there,” wrote one.
“And looking around me from about 5km away, I can confirm that there is nothing; in fact, there are NO other drones around at any time of the day or night. NOTAM can confirm this.”
The images come after a series of UFO sightings in South Australia over the past decade.
Paul Curnow of the Astronomical Society of South Australia previously said ABC News that UFO sightings are quite common.
“The average city person doesn’t look up at the sky very often, and sometimes when they look up and see something strange, they can’t really explain it,” he said.
