Parkes–Sydney–Kiama multi-witness aerial event — 3 May 1952, 06:10

The archived assessment identifies Report No. 9 as a 06:10 event on 3 May 1952 represented by fifteen separate reports from the Parkes, Sydney and Kiama area. The assessment says an object or objects with a total apparent size of about half the full moon crossed New South Wales at considerable height, generally near 35 degrees elevation, for an average duration of roughly half a minute. The descriptions were considered fairly consistent with a large slow meteor travelling horizontally or at a shallow angle and beginning to break up, although the assessor noted missing Victorian corroboration and investigation. The individual witness narratives are not present in this excerpt.
