Sightings (at night) were reported from a large parts of western NSW and Victoria. All the objects were on parallel straight tracks, and were later reported to be either a meteorite breaking up or space junk. They travelled at a uniform velocity, and I watched them through an arc of at least 90 deg. I estimated their max. altitude angle at about 60-80 deg.

Definitely not flares. As I say, at first I thought they may have been RAAF from Forest Hill.
