Today we explore what is considered Australia’s largest UFO sighting.

 

It was 10.20am on April 6 in 1966 and just a regular day for students and teachers from Westall High School in Victoria. 12-year-old Joy Clarke was in Science Class and waiting for the bell to ring, when a student burst into the classroom, urging everyone to come outside.

 

The reason? Flying objects in the sky. At first, no one believed the school girl but as Joy rushed down to the oval with her classmates, well, she saw something she’s never been able to forget.

 

The Westall UFO encounter has gone on to become a tale that is told to generations of people. But what was it actually like on the day?

 

Today, Joy is 65, and she’s still recalls what it was like seeing those unexplained objects in the sky all those years ago.
