2008-06-30 - Tabbita (Australia) - Light

I was travelling to Griffith, New South Wales, Australia from Hillston, New South Wales on the Kidman Way Highway at the listed time and year. To the paddock on the left, an orange light appeared hovering in the sky. It may have been about 200m in the sky and a distance of approx 1km. It moved quickly in an clockwise direction around my vehicle keeping at the same height until it was directly in front of me. I sped up to try and see what it was. The road was completely straight. It moved up in the sky higher, then further around to the right hand side of the road. I presumed it might have been a crop duster plane with very strong orange lights but I thought: Why would the one light appear to be shining directly at my vehicle as it moved about 110 degrees in the clockwise direction. I would also presume if a strong constant light is shining straight at me, the plane should be travelling in my direction. The luminosity and size remained the same until it sudde! nly stopped and I never saw it again.
