Reports Report 2694a (Event 2694-2024)

Observer
Name Adam S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was looking west, the object looked to be travelling away from me, appearing to be heading down/towards the horizon, then it made a sudden sweeping turn to the right, appearing to be on a slightly upward trajectory and vanished. All within 1 second. From my vantage point I could not tell if this occurred over downtown Melbourne, or much further out to the west of the city
