Description

On April 6, 1966, a Melbourne school was thrown into chaos when strange objects appeared in the sky.

It remains the largest mass UFO sighting in Australian history, witnessed by more than a hundred students in broad daylight.

Sixty years later, through the eyes of the now-adult witnesses, Australian Story examines the enduring impact of that day and the efforts to make sense of it that followed.

The episode features new first-hand accounts and investigates several theories about what might have been behind the sightings.
