Initial data
On the way from Iron knob to Kimbu on the First route, Brian hunt and his passenger, miss Sharon Kinkler, noticed a red light in a clearing to the right of the road.
As they drove past, the two noticed a bright orange illuminated area of rectangular shape, about 10 feet (3 m) high and 5 feet (1.5 m) wide, in which the clearly outlined figure of a man in a white spacesuit could be seen.
The figure was of normal size and seemed to have an ordinary shape, and was suspended in an illuminated area 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) above the ground and hovered in the middle of the illuminated area about 2-3 feet (0.6-0.9 m) above the base.
Mr hunt drew his passenger's attention to the object and figure as he accelerated past the scene, and MS Kinkler, turning in her seat, said an orange glow seemed to spread across the road behind them.
When they arrived at miss Kinkler's home in Kimba, the local police were called and a constable escorted them back to the scene. No trace was found.
Two other independent witnesses were subsequently found; Mr. Allen Degnor, a Ceduna truck driver who passed through the same area at 22: 00 and described essentially the same phenomenon. And Mr. Max Inglis, who passed Brian and Sharon just before they arrived.

Summary: While driving from Iron Knob to Kimba on Route One, Brian Hunt and his passenger, Miss Sharon Kinckler, observed a red light in a clearing to the right of the road. As they passed by, the two observed a red orange lighted area of rectangular shape, about 10 feet high by 5 feet wide, in which could be seen a sharply defined figure of what appeared to be a man in a white spacesuit. The figure was of normal size and appeared to be of ordinary shape, and was suspended in the lighted area some 2-3″ above the ground, and floated in the middle of the lighted area some 2-3 feet above the base. Mr. Hunt called the object and figure to his companion’s attention as he accelerated past the scene, and Miss Kinckler, upon turning in her seat, said the orange glow seemed to spread across the entire highway behind them. When they arrived at Miss Kinckler’s home in Kimba, the local police were called and a constable accompanied them back to the site. No traces were found. Two other independent witnesses were subsequently located; Mr. Allen Degnor, a Ceduna truck driver who passed by the same area at 2200 and described essentially the same phenomenon; and Mr. Max Inglis, who had passed Brian and Sharon just before they came to the site.
