Sceptic 'politician Saw UFO
A TERRITORY politician has added weight to growing claims there are UFOs flying around in Darwin's rural area.
Independent MLA Gerry Wood said he saw a strange object fly across the sky above Howard Springs early Wednesday morning.
"It was a dark grey object and it was flying parallel to the ground - it lit up white at the front for a short period, maybe one or two seconds, and then the light disappeared and the object melted with the sky," he said .
Mr. Wood, a self-confessed sceptic, said the object moved across the sky at a tremendous rate, but he did not believe it was a plane.
"There was not a sound, not even a whisper," he said.
"There was no trail of sparks like you see with a shooting star, it was just a white glow at the front and underneath. I know that people will not believe this because, for starters, I'm a politician ... that puts me in the category of 'what a load of crap'.
"I'm also a sceptic, but I saw this thing, clear as day."
Mr. Wood's report is the second sighting of an unknown object in the skies above Darwin's rural area.
