Time: 22:58

Location: Cashmere Hills, Christchurch, South Island.

Features/Characteristics: big orange flashing light 

Description:

The duration of aiming is two to three minutes. The weather is very clear and windless.

The witness and his friends were standing on a balcony overlooking the city when they noticed a flashing dark orange light moving towards them across the sky from east to west. At first, the witnesses didn't think anything of it, but as the object seemed to bend its way in their direction, the orange light grew larger and larger until it seemed like a clear round letter "O" traveling across the sky. 

As they watched, the light looped up into the sky, getting smaller as it rose higher and disappeared from sight. When it flew past them, it had an almost perfect round shape, and the light was a very bright and distinct orange color. The witnesses were extremely amazed and shocked, as they had never seen anything like this before.

Features/characteristics: large orange flashing light 

Description:

Duration of sighting two to three minutes. Weather very clear and calm.

The witness and friends were standing on a balcony overlooking the city when they spotted a flashing deep-orange coloured light travelling across the sky towards them, from east to west. At first the witnesses thought nothing of it, but as the object appeared to curve its path in their direction, the orange light became larger and larger until it appeared to be a clear circular ‘o’ shape travelling through the sky. As they watched, the light looped upwards into the sky becoming smaller as it traveled higher and out of sight. It was almost a perfect circular shape as it flew by them and the light was a very bright and distinct orange colour. The witnesses were utterly amazed and shocked as they had never seen anything like it before.
