Aroostook, New Brunswick A Orange-Reddish Circular Object

Date:  July 1997
Time:  10:30 p.m.

My friend and I were out on her porch on a Saturday night in July. We were stoned on pot, and outside having a cigarette and talking. A large, orange-reddish circular object, the size and brilliance of the moon, had been just above the tree-line behind her house and in plain view for most of the time we were talking. What's amazing, is neither of us thought it was out of the ordinary that it be there hanging and "observing" us, until moments later, right before it sunk below the tree line, we both looked at each other like "hey....that's not supposed to be there!"....why it never occurred to us before, and why it suddenly occurred to us at the same time that it was not natural or normal, I have no idea. No sound, shaped like the full Moon, about the same size as the full Moon. Its worth mentioning that it appeared to be very close and not too far up in the sky.

Thank you to the witness for this report.

Aroostook, New Brunswick A Reddish-Orangish Circle

Date:  Halloween Eve of 1998
Time:  10:30 p.m.

I was at a small bar out in the woods for a costume party. A group of four of us were out on the porch smoking, two men and two women. The two women (myself and the other woman) I guess were compelled to look up to the sky while the men continued talking. We both saw a  reddish-orangish circle, the size of the full Moon or maybe slightly bigger, it was stationary in the sky, and eventually blinked out.  No falling like a meteorite or anything like that. No sound either. It appeared to be very close and not way up in the sky. I should also add that this sighting took place extremely close to the other one from 1997, about 1/4 mile distance if that. Both were over and near the same river and the same hydro-electric dam. I don't know why but I've always connected both of the sightings to that river and that dam which are part of the Tobique First Nations Indian Reserve.

The 1998 sighting was later confirmed by my aunt, a local high school teacher, whose dog was outside tied up and barking, She went out to see her dog and caught a look at the red thing in the sky, she was a kilometer or so away from where I was but viewed it at the same time, 10:30 pm and described it the same.

Thank you to the witness for this report.

Amarillo, Texas 100 Miles East A Bright Glow

Date:  January 16, 2004
Time:  9:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: About 100 miles west of Amarillo, TX.  Just North of I-40
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Orb

Full Description of event/sighting: My wife and I were returning from Arkansas to Arizona via I-40.  About 100 miles or so east of Amarillo, TX we started seeing a bright glow that was emanating towards the sky. It kind of reminded us of the glow you would see from a city like Las Vegas from miles away as you approach it. For 30 or 40 miles we studied the area where the glow came from. We also noticed that it changed colors a few times. We never actually saw it directly, because it came from behind a hill. We really did not think that was a big deal until we became parallel to it on the freeway.

My wife did not believe in UFO's until that evening. All of a sudden she looked over at me. I was driving. She said, "What is that?". About the time she said that I saw a big glowing light with my peripheral vision to my left. I felt like it was no more than 10 feet away. It was a little foggy and the light really glowed in the fog. This all happened within about 10 seconds. The orbed started appearing and re-appearing at about 3 or 4 different locations. It reappeared at about 210 degrees to us behind the fence about 80 feet away. It then reappeared directly behind us. These were all instant movements. We couldn't see it in motion.

After thinking about it for quite awhile, I told my wife that I believe the glowing lights behind the hill was a craft that had landed and the glowing orbs were some kind of probe.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

North Bay, Ontario Boomerang Craft

Date:  November 29th, 2004
Time:  3:45 a.m.

My husband and I woke up around 3:30 a.m. in the morning. All was pitch dark and quiet outside, as the city is a bit of a bible belt and the shuts down on Sundays pretty much.

We both lay beside each other in darkness, quiet, not speaking to each other just relaxing. A minute or so had passed, and I began to hear giggling/singing coming from outside our window, sounded like little children right outside our front door. I didn't say anything. It lasted about 6 seconds, but I'm laying there wondering "What are little children doing up in the streets at this hour in the morning?" not possible, I thought. But before I could sort out my thoughts, I heard my husband quietly call my name. He summoned me to peak out of a small opening in our bedroom window, which was covered in blinds except for small area in which you could see a very limited and small portion of the night sky.

It was a green glowing light, and behind the light you could see a distinct shape, it was grey in color, maybe just a few shades lighter than the night sky but you could definitely see it. It was triangular, but more like a boomerang, and the edges were curvy and round and not straight edge. It was slowly moving back and forth, left to right, but not automatic like a pendulum but every now and then sporadically. There was no sound that we could hear from indoors with the window cracked slightly open. We are unsure how far up in the sky it was. Judging by my past sightings in 1997 and 1998, I think it was further up in the sky than both of those as they seemed very close. However it was hard to get a vantage point though from indoors.

Before I took my first look at it,  my husband said the light was blueish and not green, so it seems to have changed colour from blue into green. I should also add that while the other two sightings were like the Moon, a dull brilliance, this green one was more bright and there were weird morphing colour trails that looked a bit like rippling water colour that are hard for me to describe but they followed it when it moved. (note: I still don't know if that is describing it properly or not but its the best I can do)

I can't explain this next part other than to say I felt psychically that whatever it was in the sky, was not aware that my husband was observing it, but once both my husband and I were fixing our attention on it, it seemed to become aware that it was being observed, and became more still. I noted the time, 3:55 am. I observed it for at least 5 minutes, my husband maybe 10. After five minutes I went to look for binoculars. It was more important for me I guess to get a better look at it than it was for me to snap a picture of it. Besides that I had no film to take a picture with.

My husband was the one to last see it, he said it went behind a cloud and disappeared.  We watched and waited, it never returned.

It wasn't till after the "UFO" had left that I mentioned to my husband the "children singing" I had heard right before it happened. He confirmed immediately that he had heard it too and wondered what it was. We have no idea why, but neither of us mentioned it to each other while it was happening or straight after it happened. Later we both went around the house to check to see if radios had been on and they were not.

I don't know why but I feel these children singing and the thing we saw in the sky were connected.

The language sounded almost like English but not enough to be able to tell what they were saying. For example it didn't sound so different than English as Chinese would, it sounded close to English. It may have even been English, I couldn't say for sure.

Additional Information:

Brian, this is an afterthought on the 2004 sighting if you want to add this or not whatever is fine. Its hard because there were two weird things in the same sighting, I don't know if the green light was in front of the grey boomerang looking thing or if it was attached to it, but they moved together in synch and both were weird and not normal.

Thank you to the witness for this report.

Lynn Valley, North Vancouver B.C. Flashing Light

Date:  From - December 3, 2004
Time:  4:40 a.m.

Here is the latest picture of, an object I have been able to capture digitally on a pair of Meade 8x42 binoculars/digital camera. I have seen this object at least six times since December 3, 2004. Typically it appears in an easterly direction as you look from Lynn Valley, North Vancouver British Columbia. However, this image was captured looking due south. It was midway between the horizon and the zenith. I took the avi video clip at 4:40 am. Normally I'm asleep at that time but today I was on my way to pick up my daughter and take her to the airport. The brightness of the object as well as it's twinkling caught my eye as I was leaving my driveway. As I was pressed for time I quickly pulled over took 15 seconds of video. Although it looks like the object is moving it's stationary. However, because it was at a high altitude and there is no motion control it appears to be moving. I should have emailed you the picture first and added the notes but I will send you the video separately.

Thank you to the witness for the report, pictures and video footage. Video clip and pictures are ©2004 K2K.

Kaufman County, Texas Triangle ?

Date:  December 09, 2004
Time:  Approx: 7:30 p.m.

Hi Brian,
   
I told you earlier if I got a triangle, you'd be the first to know. On December 09, 2004 at approximately 7:30 p.m., I saw this light really moving fast, looked like it came from the north and was heading southwest. It was several thousand feet up and you can see it is zipping past the stars at one point. I was thinking it was a jet because of the blinking lights, but it was going at least three times faster than the jets I've been observing. I zoomed in on it at first and it was blurry, so I backed off and tried it again and it came into view. It was about 11 o'clock high and nearly due north when I first saw it and it traveled all the way across the sky to the southwest in about forty seconds. I'm sending you the complete clip. Happy Holidays and take care.

Thank you to the witness for the report, pictures and video footage.

West Monroe, Los Angeles Dish Shaped Craft

Date:  December 12, 2004
Time:  9:30 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 10
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Disk

Full Description of event/sighting: swirling disk shaped object spinning low in the sky ( like a low star) at first I thought it was a planet but it was blinking blue and green lights.  I noticed it wasn't moving so I ran in to get my binoculars. What I saw looked like an upside down silver bread basket (weird I know) but it had spokes which were swirling colors out  of a hub and the colors were blending with each other leaving little trails of colored light. I called my friend in town, thirty miles away.  She and her husband and son saw it in the sky also.

I find it odd because I saw two jets criss cross in front of it. It never moved except to dip side to side and the lights changed from colored ones to white and red only. My friend reported the jets also.

We live about 80 miles from Barksdale AFB in Shreveport, La. so I have seen small fast jets before.

I called and reported it to the state police as my brother is one but I haven't heard anything. This object was beautiful but frightening.

I have never thought about UFOs until tonight. I will never forget what I saw. Thank-you.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

St. Joseph, Missouri Round White Dot

Date:  December 13, 2004
Time:  6:15 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round white dot.

Full Description of event/sighting: I'm a corrections officer at a prison here in town who works the night shift and happened to have patrol car duty on the morning of 12-13-2004.  My job that morning was to drive around the prison and do security checks of the fence and grounds around it.  At about 6:00 a.m. I was starting to feel a little tired so I radioed control center to send out a relief for me so I could have a break and get something caffeinated to drink.  After getting my drink I came back outside and was waiting for my relief to bring the vehicle around when I noticed a shooting star off to the East low on the horizon.  So naturally I started to scan the sky, which was very, very clear, and I noticed another shooting star.  This one, however, did not fade out and it also did not leave a trail behind it.  It was about half as big as Venus and was coming from the SW heading NE, no flashing lights just white light.  I have no idea how high up it was.

As I was watching it a maintenance worker was walking up to the building and I asked him what he thought the object in the sky was.  "A plane probably," he said with a glance up.  I asked, "Don't you think a plane would have flashing lights on it?" and he just shrugged.  Maybe it was just a plane, but I can tell you this - it traversed the entire night sky in less than 1 minute and didn't make a sound.  I'm certainly no mathematician, but for a plane to travel all the way across the sky in less than a minute and to be so high up that one can not hear its engines would mean that it was going pretty damned fast.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Heading North From Brampton, Ontario Zig Zagging Light

Date:  December 14, 2004
Time:  2:00 a.m.

Hi Brian,

My friend called me this morning very excited, she worked till 2:00 a.m. and when she was heading home (north on highway 10) from Brampton. She said there were all kinds of falling stars in the sky, but there was one directly to the north and she said by the time she got home it was still in the sky but it had moved more towards our direction, which is north west #10

She said it was so awesome, at first she said it looked like it could have been a plane, but as she stood and watched it got much brighter and it was zig zagging all over. I asked her in what direction did it appear to be going and she said, over towards my house. She wanted to call me but was worried about the time. Heck I told her to call anytime she sees something like that. I just wish I had a camera again. Anyway I thought it was special that she called be she is someone that I had star watching with me this past summer and she indeed believes. As I said before if you can get people to stay long enough to witness it once, you pretty much have a new believer.

Thank you to the person for sharing this report.

Bendigo, Victoria Australia Triangle UFO Uncloak

Date:  December 15, 2004
Time:  3:00 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle

Full Description of event/sighting: I was stargazing and watched this Triangle UFO uncloak in front of me and little bit to the right, it caught my eye. It was about the size of half a matchbox at arms length. The lights on each point of the Triangle were about the size of a regular star, white. It silently glided overhead, changing course here and there a bit. I stood up and watched it till was out of sight, amazed.  I hear of these things in the states a lot, but, over this little country town?  It was awesome.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Edmonton, Alberta Unknown Flashing Light

Date:  December 15, 2004
Time of Sighting: 4:50 p.m. +/- 10 min.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Unknown, flashing light only.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi, Brian.  I thought I'd report this, even though I'm pretty sure there could be a "reasonable" explanation for it. I'm always sure to check the skies at red lights, in slow traffic, etc, to see if anything interesting is going on. Well, on my drive home (traveling south on Terwillager Drive, in south Edmonton), I noticed a plane traveling what seemed to be NWW.  It looked like a pretty standard passenger jet, but I couldn't make out any details, save for it's lights. However, as it was passing in front of a fairly large cloud (there were few clouds in the sky at this time), a seemingly stationary light, approximately 3-5 plane-lengths above the plane, and much smaller than the visible lights of the plane, flashed 5 or 6 times. The light was very bright, and noticeable, but small (like it was smaller, but had more output). I could not see anything in its place when it flashed "off," and could see nothing after the plane had moved further on its course. Is it standard procedure for aircraft to "flash" each other like this when they're flying in each others' airspace? Perhaps you've determined the cause of similar events.  If you have, please let me know.  Thanks

Thank you to the witness for the report.

UFO Defense Tactics: Weather Shield to Chemtrails - By: Johnstone, A. K

Dr. Johnstone's book was selected by The Anomalous Book List, as one of the ten best UFO books of 2002.
Description: The existence of UFOs is a phenomenon that intrigues and captivates, yet it generates more skepticism than acceptance. Witnesses of unconventional craft are often disbelieved and even ridiculed. Belief in the existence of UFOs is obviously not yet mainstream, but that may one day change. Over the past few decades, reports of UFO sightings have dramatically increased in North America. Further, these sightings have been observed to be more blatant and even menacing. Some reports even imply that these craft are monitoring our planet.

Interestingly, many of these sightings have taken place over military bases. In UFO Weather Shield, A.K. Johnstone, PhD., explores the details of numerous sightings from a scientific viewpoint, including descriptions of craft, luminous sheaths and fireballs. So what, if anything, is the United States government doing about it? Johnstone suggests that military and government agencies have the ability to manipulate weather electromagnetically and with chemtrails to deter unconventional craft. This hypothesis also explains erratic changes in the weather in the last few years. Is the government creating a weather shield to deter UFOs from entering the earth’s atmosphere? Take a look at the evidence.
