Case · UFO Afrinews No 11, Feb. 1995
Water: the Moses tank emptied overnight (Australia)
1979 ยท Not printed; a rural property in Australia, case supplied by VUFORS, Victoria, Australia
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
Sent to Hind by Paul Norman of VUFORS, Victoria, this Australian case is printed to advance her theory that UAPs seek water. Late one Saturday Ron and Heather Moses checked their 13,000 gallon (52,000 litre) tank and found it full to within two inches of the top. Next day it was bone dry, the plug still in place, with no sign of leakage and no tracks near the tank, though Ron is a good bushman. Two days later reports of flashing blue lights drew scores of reporters and UAP spotters to the area, and the lights were said to have passed over the Moses paddock. They never spoke of the tank because Ron feared laughter. Heather reasons it could not have evaporated or leaked without trace; they refilled it and it has been fine since.
What Hind made of it
Offered as support for her water-connection theory; she promises to publish any case that advances it.
Explanation offered
Heather's own: a UAP took it; evaporation and slow leak ruled out by her
In their words
-
The only explanation I can think of, is that a UFO took it.
-
Ron is a good bushman but he could not find any tracks near the tank.
