Halifax, Nova Scotia Night Sky Become Like Day

Date:  Late 1990s
Time:  11:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Driving East on the TransCanada Highway in Newfoundland.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: No Shape, Just a Strange Phenomenon!

Full Description of event/sighting: I was with my parents and we were driving home from GrandFalls NL around 11:00 p.m. at night, I was in the back seat sleeping when I heard my mother scream and my father shouted at the same time.  I thought we were going to die from all the commotion, when I arose I forgot it was late night because of how light it was outside,  I asked my mother what was wrong and my father replied, ("For the love of Jesus, look at the sky!").

I said, "So it's light out!".  Then he asked me to look at the clock in the dashboard, Then I remembered it was getting dark when we left GrandFalls.  I replied,"Oh my GOD!", as I was shaking and trying to wake up out of my confusion the sky grew brighter and brighter.  I was in the Canadian military at the time and still am to this day, but I  know that wasn't any type of Gov't aircraft.  The light lasted for about two or three minutes then faded out again.     Being from Newfoundland I know what Northern lights are but this was no "Aurora Borealis".  In Newfoundland, for those who are not from there we have a segment of radio airtime daily  called "Open Line" where normal everyday people call in to give comments and state concerns about everything from the government to the poor conditions of our highways.  That next morning several calls were made about the sky lighting up the night before, nobody had seen anything but the sky go from dark with a few stars to bright as daytime without the sun.  I was a non believer of UFO's, and I am darn sure if the Gov't knew or had anything to with them the gov't would be trying to make money off of them ( Cause that's what Govt's do best) and it would become exposed.  When I look back on that experience that night I get shivers up my back and that is the truth.  I am no longer a disbeliever to the supernatural and unknown entities, neither are my parents.

All I know is that, in a universe this big we are a spec of dust compared to the galaxies and supernovas out there.  I have questioned faith and god at times thinking that the bible was mistranslated and that maybe there was a race of superior beings to ours, it's questions like these that make me ask myself who, why and how.

I am definitely, positively,honestly telling no BS story, this is fact that those occurrences did take place, my parents may be divorced and living apart ,I know they can agree on what they saw late that night.
    
It definitely freaks me out.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Northeast Oregon, Six Daytime Orbs In A "V" Formation

Date:  July 21, 2004
Time: 3:30 - 4:00 p.m. ?

I believe it was August (actual date for the jet fighter to collide was July 21, 2004) when two US fighter Jets were reported to have collided over Oregon and the Columbia River near a military reserve in Northeast Oregon. This is time of our sighting of  7 UFOs.. Please read my description of events.
My 7.75 yr son and I were playing Frisbee in our back yard on a very clear blue sky afternoon. I believe it was about 3:30-4:00 p.m. not sure exact time.  My son says "Dad, what is that star in the sky?".

I look up to the Eastern sky from our East Portland, Oregon residence near the entrance of the Columbia River Gorge. Out of the River Gorge were 6 Orbs.. glowing like stars in the daylight. They seemed to hover ..then float.. then  in "V" formation moved out of Gorge at about 1,500 ft altitude moving slowly and gracefully to the south. It appeared they were following the Sandy River gorge from its mouth into the Columbia River. They flew along the beginning of the foothills to the south. They rapidly split into 2's..   The "froze" in the sky. Totally still.. they were still in V formation.  Then two groups split off main group. then broke off singularly and elevated to individual altitudes.. as if they placed up a "WALL".. in the sky. At different altitudes they darted into new positions. as if a pattern of some form of Hieroglyphic sign in the sky. Their positions were varied from approx 2500 to 45,000 ft altitude in placement.   THEN THEY FROZE IN POSITION. They did not move at all. They were totally silent.. And simply "FROZE" in position in the sky. Their glow was bright white as if you were looking directly into the sunlight's center.

The one lead which was stationery at approx 35-40,000 ft remained in absolute position as a commercial passenger airliner flew right past in its path going from south to north. The ORB "NEVER" budged a fraction from the jetstream.

This event lasted almost 15 minutes. My son and I both witnessed it and we pointed it out to a neighbor who said "Wow!.. their really hard to see they are so bright".  The sun was at our backs as we witnessed these craft in a clear blue afternoon sky in the east.

Suddenly they darted..... into patterns of 2 again. Then my son said.. "Look Dad there is SEVEN".  Another craft whizzed into them and then all darted directly UP!... and Vanished in the blue sky straight up.

I told my son.. let's go inside to see the TV.. I feel something has happened. We went inside and Found the Newsflash of the two fighter jets crashing at the time of our sighting.

This is quite real.  An event which must be known I believe.   I believe that the two fighters were "intercepting" the UFOs.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Ft. Myers, Florida Another Unusual Cloud Formation

Date:  August 16, 2004
Time:  7:30 a.m.

I was so elated to see this photo! Referring to photo on my site:
http://www.hbccufo.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1978

Finally, after searching everywhere on the Net, I've found something that so closely resembles what I first saw three days after Hurricane Charlie.  I don’t think this is just a smudge on the glass.  Here's why:

On August 16th, I was heading back to work for the first time since my co-workers and I prepped the place as best we could before heading on to our homes on the afternoon of Aug. 12th.  I'm an Administrative Assistant for a well-known engineering firm.

I take the same route into work every day, at the same time of day every day (7:30 am), and this particular morning was no exception. I was facing west at a major intersection, waiting to take the left (south) turn.  As I'm sitting at the light waiting to make my turn I looked above the line of cars to the sky and there, very large and very clear, was this sphere, peeking out from the middle of a cumulus.  It seemed as if the cumulus cloaked it or wrapped "arms" around it somehow.  It had five rings that I could see that encircled it, each one graduating in width to accommodate the circumference before the cumulus blocked the view.  It reminded me of the images of Saturn, the way the rings circled it, only they went top to bottom in a stacked formation instead of concentric ones.  The whole thing seemed to be made of the same "stuff" as the cloud that enveloped it, which is to say sort of wispy and puffy. I could even make out drifts at the bottoms of the rings, which reminded me of the vapor that can be seen coming from dry ice, yet somehow the whole thing held together and had a sense of solidity.  There was no movement that I could discern. It just hung there.

It was enormous, but I have no way of gauging how large it actually was, except to say a jetliner would be dwarfed next to it. From its position in the sky I estimated it to be somewhere over Sanibel and Captiva Islands, the two worst hit areas nearest Ft. Myers.  Light seemed to reflect off its surface, as it was catching the rising sun, yet the rings had shadowed places beneath them, suggesting an internal light.  It was white in color, but with nuances that would allow it to blend perfectly into the surrounding cover.

I kept an eye on it, never thinking to look around to see if anyone else saw it.  Of course I cursed my luck at having taken my camera out of the car only that morning. The traffic light changed all too soon and I was forced to move, but as I headed south I could still see it in my passenger side window and I kept it in view until a buffer wall blocked further observation.  I sped up, hoping to catch the next light on green and did so.

Three minutes later I parked at work and got anxiously out, immediately looking to the direction I'd seen it in.  There were some clouds, but none looked like the one I'd spent the last five minutes watching.

Well, we'd just had a hurricane a few days earlier and it would be no surprise to see some pretty amazing cloud formations, right? Sure.  Except I saw it a second time. 

The second sighting was after Hurricane Frances and this time my seven year old daughter was with me.

We were taking her to school, the first day back after being out the whole previous week.  There were still trees down everywhere and some folks still didn’t have power reconnected since Charlie's destructive visit.  The time was approximately 7:15 a.m.  The sun was coming up in a beautiful blaze of corals and oranges, very dramatic. 

We were traveling east and I glanced out my window northwards as we approached an intersection.  There it was again, only this time I estimated its position to be over Port Charlotte, the worst hit county in our immediate area, some 20 miles north.  It took on the beautiful tinge of the sunrise, yet still suggested some type of internal light.  The sphere itself seemed so smooth.  Once again the cumulus partially obscured the lower half of it. 

I pointed it out to my daughter as we reached the intersection, asking if she saw it.  I asked her what it looked like to her and she said a ball with rings going around it.  She said it looked pretty, "like that planet". 

Just like before we watched it all the way to her school until such time as we had to turn away from it in order to turn into the school.  By the time we'd parked and gotten out, yes, it was gone.  Again.

She and I sat down later that evening in different rooms and drew what we saw, although neither of us could really do it justice.  I have been searching since then, trying to find something that made sense.  This picture is the closest I've seen, with the exception of a photo of a cloud formation that is said to form over the Mt. St. Helens area in the spring, but that photo lacked that definition, that solidness, that the thing I saw had.

Have you heard of any other sightings of cloud-like anomalies in the South Florida area?  I was ready to dismiss it before as just one of those freak things, but now I'm not so sure. 

If you like, I can scan and send the drawings my daughter and I drew of it.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you to the witness for this report.

Estancia Valley, New Mexico Multi-Light Object

Message: Hi,
  
Been looking at some of the info on your site and just wanted to report what we have been seeing in the Estancia Valley of New Mexico.
  
For some time now we have been seeing on a fairly regular basis a multi-light object, blinking quickly and rotating in some what stationary position. It is primarily red, green and white in light pattern blinking. We have seen objects come from it, plains avoid  it and  the objects come zipping up to it and disappearing. It's heading is 28 1/2 degrees East of magnetic North.
  
It does move, but very slowly in comparison to earth's rotation. Please note we are in Albuquerque Sunport Flightpath  and are very familiar with night time air traffic.
   
Does anybody out there know what this is?

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Phoenix Arizona Colorful Light Show

Date:  October 1, 2004
Time:  3:34 a.m.

I have this interesting video clip I would like to share with you. I just watched this new show on SciFi channel called Proof Positive and in the first segment of the show was a family that was followed by a bright light in the sky as they travelled down the West coast on a road trip. The wife video taped the object and it morphed into some odd shapes. When I saw her video I saw exactly what I taped one morning while walking my dog. I could not believe it. All along I thought it was a trick of the lens or something having to do with taping lights at night but it was not.

Thank you to the gentleman for all of the clips and report.

Kaufman County, Texas Bizarre Image & Cloud Formation As An Angel

Date:  October 19, 2004
Time:  4:20 p.m. (second image captured following day)

Hi Brian
   
On 10-19-04 at  4:20 p.m. (Tuesday) I was out in my front yard taking some pictures. It was a nearly clear day with lots of blue sky, just a perfect day to be outside. I had noticed this one cloud kind of drifting toward me from the west. Didn't pay to much attention to it right at first till it got nearly directly overhead, and then it started taking on a form that looked to me like an angel with wings and a torch in her left hand. Her right hand was up like she was waving, her hair was long, part of it was draped across the front of her and part was like the wind was blowing it across her wings. I thought, well, I'll just take her picture. As I was looking at it, I was bringing up my camera to snap it, the "torch"started lighting up with different colors. I snapped it in time to get the multi-colored torch! That's not all the story! I was out the following day at sundown snapping pictures. As I was downloading the pictures later, I noticed a light in one of them.I enlarged it and to my surprise it was a white cross (crucifix) in the clouds! I'm sending you the pictures to see what you think, I penciled in an extra one on the angel to show you what I saw. I thought these were extraordinary and you might want to see them.:)

Thank you to the person for sending the report and pictures.

Jasper, Georgia Round Multi Colored Lights

Date:  October 25, 2004
Time:  12:36 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: round.

Full Description of event/sighting: round in shape, with multi colored lights that would fade, as if lights were being turned off.  The lights would go in circular motion.  It seemed as though there were green, red, yellow and blue lights.  This object would move, but not like an airplane, and yet, not still like a star.  Have never witnessed anything like this.  If anyone in the North Ga area has seen this, please contact me, as I would like to hear more about this.

Additional Information.

Could you please describe the weather conditions at the time of the sighting. Was it  Overcast? on some occasions...however, when a cloud would move, you could still see it.  Raining? A clear night?  on some occasions Full moon?

In what part of the sky was the UFO located? North, my dad says in the NW part of the sky   South, East, West? On
the horizon or straight overhead or somewhere in between?

As the UFO moved? How far and how fast? Describe its movements in detail. We didn't really see it MOVE, however, it would sort of "turn" by that I mean, it looked like it was leaning

Describe the appearance of the UFO: shape,  oval, saucer shape (may sound "cheesy", but its the only way to describe it  size maybe the size of a large airplane in total weight?? I guess , distance  not sure how far up or away from me it was, color  cant tell color, too far away and too high up and it was at night, texture not sure of this either,
sound. Draw a picture of it if at all possible. oh goodness I cannot draw at all on the computer....

Describe the area in which you made the sighting. Is it near an airport? well I am about 65 miles from Atlanta, Georgia.. An
Air Force Base? A military or research installation of any kind? there is an military base in Atlanta as well

Also were any aircraft seen in the area at the time of the sighting ? Yes, you can definitely tell the difference though, when an airplane goes through the sky and just looking at this "object".  Its in the NW, but not sure how far up....you can see the lights going around it....literally....and they are green, yellow, red, and blue....very bright lights, then like I said they will beam down and then get very dim...we can go out there...and it will still be there an hour or so later, then ..........boom, its gone....the next time we go out.  This is about all I can tell you about it.  I have never experience anything like this before.  I am going to try to video tape it, however, my video recorder battery is charging right now....so I will do the best I can for you.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Ottawa, Ontario Anomaly That Looked Like A Missile ?

Date:  October 27, 2004
Time:  6:45 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects:   Anomaly that looked like a Missile?

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian, Sky: partly cloudy illuminated by the full moon.

In a field close to Ottawa, looking East in the vicinity of the moon, I noticed a strange line of smoke  heading straight up, I can't say if it came from the ground because when I saw it was already in midair.  The line started just in the middle of the  course between the ground and the vanishing point. It  was very visible due to the moonlight. I showed it to my son and asked what he saw.  Sure enough he saw the same thing. I took a peak in my pocket, found my small monocular (Don't leave home without it ) and look closer to that "Anomaly", keeping my thought for myself passed the mono to my son, he  thought out loud what I was keeping for myself, It Look like a missile to him too... We could see a pale line of light atop the smoke and it looked like a burning thrusters...

We could not see anything else but the smoke and the orangey white line.  It went up for a moment and when it reached approx: between 30 to 40 degree in elevation the trail stopped and we could not see anything after that.  I did not see any explosion of any kind it just vanished leaving the trail behind for a while. Although it was far away I know  IT WAS NOT a plane, we could not see any kind of lights, and it was going Up in a pretty straight line.  I saw few commercials planes going to the airport of Ottawa as usual and a least one flying over, ordinary traffic for that time of the night. Some of the planes were coming from a eastern direction, I would guess that someone else must have seen it too. I hope they come forward. I don't know exactly the direction, it was East for sure and to the left of the moon  but I can't say if it was  NE or SE, I would have to go back with my compass.  We were puzzled for a while,  we have seen so many "Anomalies" that I have to shake myself to react and report them. If only more people would just look above more often they would realize that a lot is going on at night and  in the plain sight of daylight. Keep watching!

God bless you all.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Portland, Oregon Odd Cloud

Date:  October 27, 2004
Time;  6:07 p.m.

To Brian Vike,

I have not had much contact with you recently, so I thought I'd take time to show you a picture that I took while driving home from work today, 10-27-04, at 6:07 pm local time.

It was taken from my slow moving car with the window rolled down, 1/50th second exposure, f3.5, iso 50, optically zoomed to about 6x normal viewing, about 230mm lens equivalent.  The picture is nothing very special, it is dim due to waning daylight and focus is not that good.  I am looking almost due north in the photo.

The sky was very nearly cloudless at this particular time.  The photo center area shows an odd cloud which had moments earlier appeared as a "new" cloud with very crisply defined edges, unlike any "naturally formed" clouds that I am familiar with, and so I wanted to photograph it.  The color of the cloud was very blue also.

I was careful to notice if any birds or planes were in the shot.  There were none.  I must add that I am several hundred feet up in the air on a high bridge crossing a large river.  There is part of a blurred cyclone fence rail in the lower foreground, that was adjacent to the road I was travelling on.

The three dark inclusions that you see were not directly visible, but I could almost feel their presence, and I know that sounds odd, but it is true.

The picture I email with this note is straight from the camera.  I have looked at it with increased contrast & brightness, and also with a solarizing filter applied, and there is a definite aura surrounding each of these dark spots, colored green with the solarizing filter.

What a coincidence that Jeff Rense has an article about fluorine/fluoride on his website today written by Jim Phelps.  I wonder if these objects are surrounded by an aura of fluorine gases, among some others.  Sure makes you stop and think about it.

Thank you to the person for sending the report and pictures.
