 SA> Grampians: gateway to UFOs

 SA> June 14, 2003

 SA> RECENT photos revealing mysterious lights visible around the
 SA> Grampians mountain ranges, extending 100 to 160km north of
 SA> Warrnambool, have been released to The Standard.

 JS> There are also the famous "Brown Mountain lights of Virgina" that
 JS> have drawn the same kind of attention over the ages. These lights
 JS> also hover over a mountain range as do the ones in Your article.
 JS> This phenomenom has never been fully explained, but the popular
 JS> explanation by skeptics is a weather event similar to a fireball.
 JS> Despite the arguments of open-minded people, automotive headlights
 JS> and aircraft are also mentioned by the skeptics.

Your Brown Mountain Lights sound very similar to the Min Min Light,
a hovering luminescent ball seen in Queensland. One plausible explanation
is that it is an inverted mirage of light sources hundreds of kilos over
the horizon.

Cheers, Steve..
