The UFO Files: Flying Saucers at the National Archives The National Archives holds many records relating to unidentified flying objects (UFOs), flying saucers and other unidentified aerial sightings. Many of these records date from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s when public interest in UFOs was high and many sightings were reported to Commonwealth authorities. This talk will explore the development of Commonwealth government policy towards UFOs over these decades, the reporting of sightings by the public and the subsequent investigations with specific examples from SA and the emergence of a subculture interested in these phenomena throughout Australia and the rest of the world.

Meet the Author
Meet the Author: Rachael Treasure Country girl and bestselling novelist Rachael Treasure talks about her memoir Down the Dirt Roads. She had worked hard to build a long-dreamed-of lifestyle on her own patch of dirt in Tasmania’s rugged and beautiful wilderness, but through the breakdown of her marriage, Rachael lost her family farm and, in her words, lost her way in life. What begins as a heartfelt and moving insight into the life of a single mother displaced from her home, becomes a groundbreaking and powerful book about healing, health and hope. Nourishing and sustaining, it presents a practical and positive vision of what life on our land could become.
