05FEB2012 Jon Sydney, NSW, Australia past 2200 05-10 sec West looked like a star (like a dot) looked like a star no looked like a star (like a dot) however, it was moving, cruising through space

5FEB2012 Brad Shoalwater 110 7-10 seconds e-w Green very bright yes no Photo. I was looking through my phone at the time and noticed a green reflection in my glass table. Long tail, travelled quite slowly and then seemed to burn out. No sound at all. If i had to use a ruler at arms length and measure the sky into the distance I would guess at about 10cm in length.

05FEB2012 AWG leederville perth australia 100.05 3 / 4 seconds right to left, low in western sky multicoloured aura around a white sphere centre and white tail, no sound, I've scene hundreds of meteors before and this was like no other. strong bright steady, and so colourful full spectrum of colours brighter than the moon not as bright as sun. you could look at it no fragments but an extremely long bright tail amazing id love to hear more info on it

05FEB2012 Kate Perth, WA, Australia 1250 - 0130h < 2 seconds NE - SW Bright white core with orange-yellow outer glow, bright blue tail. No discernable sound. Brighter than moon. No fragmentation I observed the object through my open bedroom window in Forrestfield. I can see and hear the planes coming in to land at the airport, the object seemed to follow almost the same trajectory as the planes landing, however it was travelling much faster. The object was large, almost the size of the moon which was also visible at the time; it was also brighter than the moon. It was a bright white colour with a orange-yellow glowing rim; there was also a bright blue tail, probably three fingers width (at outstretched arm) in length. No fragmentation or lingering train was observed. No immediate or subsequent noise was heard, or if subsequent noise was present it wasn’t discernable from usual noise of urban industry, traffic and airport noise.
