Australia’s Strangest UFO Cases with Violeta M. Bagia
Somewhere in the SkiesAug 31, 2026
Australian author and Somewhere in the Skies Substack writer Violeta Bagia joins host Ryan Sprague to revisit lesser-known Australian UFO cases she dug up from Royal Australian Air Force files held by the National Archives of Australia. The conversation covers the 1954 Dandenong saucer sighting, the 1988 Knowles family encounter on the Nullarbor, and the disputed 1993 Eric Thomason beach photos. They also discuss why abduction reports have faded from public view and whether today's government-focused UFO discourse has lost the sense of wonder found in older witness accounts.
