North Carolina

Alan Caviness writes, "For years, residents in an undisclosed area just
west of HIGH POINT, North Carolina have experienced strange occurrences of
the seemingly "paranormal" variety." The experiences vary widely and
involve many different kinds of paranormal topics normally studied by
investigators. After 3 years of field studies and monitoring as work
schedules would permit, I have determined and confirmed many times over
that the overall phenomenon is real and does indeed encompass many aspects
of the paranormal world. The colleagues I work with also agree without
reservation.

Here is a typical photo taken New Year's Eve.

OHIO - SPECTACULAR SKY SHOW - VIDEO

HICKSVILLE - On January 14, 2005, at about 6:00 PM, the sunset was brightly
lit orange and huge clouds were present. I got my camcorder out and was
video taping the clouds, then I caught my first strange occurrence on tape.
I saw a ball that appeared to be orange or yellow slowly moving straight up
into the sky. It took about 5-6 minutes to finally go out of site. Then
about thirty seconds later I observed trails of fire falling from the sky.
Three fireballs came from different directions and they were all falling to
somewhat the same area. The strange part is while they were falling, there
was some different thing being shot up into the sky. I've seen shooting
stars and these were not. These things were burning up as they came into
our atmosphere and took 40 to 90 seconds to burn up or disappear. Jets in
groups of two's flew over head for they next 2-3 hours. They were chasing
something. I was so scared. Never in my life have I ever seen anything like
this.

Oregon - Two Bright Objects Filmed

Portland - On January 11, 2005, driving to work at 7:35 AM, I saw two
bright objects just above the eastern horizon. They were much brighter at
first before they sank into the distant haze that you see in the pictures.
However, I could not photograph them at first sight due to being on the
freeway at A.M. rush hour. The first picture PICT8356.JPG was a very lucky
shot, even though the camera auto focused on the shrubs in the foreground,
you can still see a greenish caste to the objects. The day was just dawning
and was nearly cloudless. Very rare to see the blue sky anymore. The
objects were moving to the east away from me. They held in view for about
nine minutes, so could not have been moving too fast. The 40x zoomed in
picture 8369 shows a 4 lobed structure in or around the object. This is the
brighter of the two, or upper one. Files I send are full size with text
added. I think the objects were very far away, several miles at least,
therefore very large. The dark object in Picture 8362 and - 63 seems to
have a halo around it as well and is similarly sized to the bright one.

South Carolina - Light With Increasing Brightness

PIEDMONT -- This object was stationary in the northern sky on January 26,
2005, at 5:36 PM. Initially, it could be described as a bright star but
almost immediately, the intensity increased exponentially. Then, it faded
to a point no brighter than the background stars and traveled west until it
completely disappeared. It moved at the same velocity of a commercial jet
but there were no beacons, strobes, or navigational lights of any kind. My
first thought was that I had witnessed a meteor straight-on... it became
extremely bright and then "burned out." But that would not explain the turn
to the west and then the disappearance. The second object was exactly like
the first but was never bright. It followed a similar path again with no
lighting that would identify it as a commercial aircraft. There were
aircraft in the sky and it was easy to differentiate.

Wisconsin - Speeding Light Does U -Turn

GRANTON -- I was driving home from work on January 17, 2005 at 8:28 PM, and
noticed a white light blinking in the northwesterly direction. It was doing
the coolest maneuvers. It was going up and down then made the most
spectacular U turn within a second and did more maneuvers. There where
lights on its body that blinked, at least a couple and the blinking would
follow from the first light to the last light. This object was quite a few
miles away so I could not tell if it was making noise or could get a clear
look at it. It was also 8:15 P.M. at night, so it was dark.

This object was however large and then the most incredible thing was that
the lights would stop, but would still be on and then it would "shoot" into
the night sky at an alarming speed. As it moved westerly it did not seem to
get smaller. So this gave me the feeling this object was huge. It made some
more of those cool maneuvers then shot into space again and then
disappeared out of sight! What ever it was it was big and could turn a U
turn in a second and shoot upwards with tremendous speed! Kind of like that
of the Star ship Enterprise! It was just awesome to watch but yet a little
scary too! I have watched the Air Force from Fort McCoye doing dog fights
above our house, but I have never seen this kind of movement from them
either!

Canada - Round Ball of Light over Newfoundland

MOUNT PEARL - Two witnesses just came back from sliding and I looked up and
saw a round ball of light, it hovered for a few seconds then took off
really fast and disappeared on January 12, 2005, at 5 PM. It was too early
to be a shooting star because it wasn't dark out and there were no other
stars or street lights on. The weather was clear with some clouds and no
wind. The UFO was located in the east, and the entire event lasted about 5
seconds. The UFO was the shape of a round ball of light and made no sound
whatsoever. Thanks to Brian Vike

CALGARY, ALBERTA -- On January 11, 2005, at 5:08 PM, my mother and I had
just come from a clothing store. As I came out, with my mother in tow, I
noticed there were no clouds around, and the sky was an orangey yellow
glow. As I scanned the parking lot, I happened to see an odd looking cloud
in the SW part of the sky. As I pointed out this grayish cigar to my
mother, she was looking in the wrong direction. When she did see what I was
pointing out to her she said, Oh that's just a cloud. I responded, that's
no ordinary cloud. I watched as I descended the stairs and how it changed
shape and started moving upwards. As I unlocked the van's doors, I still
kept a watch on it. As the cloud disappeared, I saw a grayish cigar like
shape going straight up in the sky.

There was no contrail or chemtrail behind them, and this was no plane.
Because it disappeared straight up and out of sight. I have never seen
anything shoot straight up like that before.

Cyprus - Flash Of Light

LIMASSOL - The observers were watching the sky near the Constellation Orion
when they saw a bright flash appear for only one second at a time, then it
appeared again, I have timed it and it appeared every three minutes at 10
PM on January 26, 2005. I know that the stars move from left to right but
this light moved from right to left and moved up at an angle. It, then,
moved at a different angle three minutes later. We don't know what it was
and I have tried to film it, but my camcorder isn't good enough to pick it
up.

((NUFORC Note: We spoke with this witness via telephone, and he seemed to
be an exceptionally credible witness. NUFORC has received a number of
similar reports, of peculiar blinking lights in the night sky, over recent
months. PD))

Chile - Incredible UFO Photo

IQUIQUE - This extraordinary chance photo was taken in northern Chile on
Friday, February 4,2005. Carlos Bruna, an official with the Controllership
of the Republic in the city of Iquique, visited the Tres Islas Beach, some
10 minutes away and with his new digital camera began taking photos of the
mountains and their contrast with the blue sky. To his surprise, upon
loading the photos into his computer, he saw that one of the images showed
a lens-shaped object, expelling some sort of white energy, flying high
above one of the mountains.

The AION CHILE organization received the images and they are still under
analysis. The photo shows some interesting details, observed Rodrigo
Fuenzalida, AION's director. "When I received the material, I found that
the mountains were too well outlined, and the colors had a curious clarity.
However, upon listening to Carlos, the percipient, I found his account to
be an honest one." According to AION's representative in Chile's 1st
Region, Mario Pizarro, the UFO image is genunie and studies conducted on
site suggest that the object had a diameter of between 3 and 4 meters.

Mexico UFO Reported Over Plaza Bullring

MEXICO CITY -- On January 9, 2005, several people witnessed an unidentified
flying object (UFO) flying over the facilities of the Plaza Mexico Bullring
in (Distrito Federal). Although the exact time of the sighting was not
given, it occurred during the afternoon, since the bullfights commence at 4
PM. The images were presented on TelevisaA=ADs "La Jugada" program and the
newspaper item appeared in the "El Universal" newspaper
http://www.eluniversal.com.mx

The video clearly shows a glowing, spherical object that appears to be
hanging in the sky, and which, according to witnesses, drifted away slowly
until it vanished from sight. I believe, from my humble point of view, that
it is truly a flying object of unknown origin, dismissing the possibility
that it could be a conventional device or even the weather balloon employed
for weather forecasts, since it isn't so shiny and its contour is well
defined. An interesting path of investigation is the relationship between
UFO sightings and volcanic activity. On that very same day, January 9th, a
communiquA=A9 was issued with regard to a 5 kilometer high fumarole over
the Popocatepetl crater, with ash-fall reports for neighboring communities.

UFO Phenomenon with Peter Jennings

Seeing Is Believing -- A Two-Hour Primetime Special Airs Thursday, February
24, 2004, at 8 PM. - Almost 50 percent of Americans, according to recent
polls, and millions of people elsewhere in the world believe that UFOs are
real. For many it is a deeply held belief. For decades there have been
sightings of UFOs by millions and millions of people. It is a mystery that
only science can solve, and yet the phenomenon remains largely unexamined.
Most of the reporting on this subject by the mainstream media holds those
who claim to have seen UFOs up to ridicule. On Feb. 24, "Peter Jennings
Reporting: UFOs - Seeing Is Believing" takes a fresh look at the UFO
phenomenon. "As a journalist," says Jennings, "I began this project with a
healthy dose of skepticism and as open a mind as possible. After almost 150
interviews with scientists, investigators, and with many of those who claim
to have witnessed unidentified flying objects, there are important
questions that have not been completely answered - and a great deal not
fully explained." "Peter Jennings Reporting: UFOs - Seeing Is Believing"
airs Thursday, Feb. 24 from 8-10 p.m. ET on ABC. The program will be
broadcast in High Definition. This two-hour primetime special reports on
the entire scope of the UFO experience - from the first famous sighting by
Kenneth Arnold in 1947 to the present day. The program draws on interviews
with police officers, pilots, military personnel, scientists and ordinary
citizens who give extraordinary accounts of encounters with the
unexplained.

The program explores the incident at Roswell, N.M., and looks into the
strange stories of alien abductions.
Among the UFO cases presented:

* Minot Air Force Base, N.D., October 1968 - Sixteen airmen on the ground
and the crew of an airborne B-52 witness a massive unidentified object
hovering near the base.

* Phoenix, Ariz., March 1997 - Hundreds witness a huge triangular craft
moving slowly over the city.

* St. Clair County, Ill., January 2000 - Police officers in five adjoining
towns all independently report witnessing a giant craft with multiple
bright lights moving silently across the sky at a very low altitude.

Today if you report a UFO to the U.S. government you will be informed that
the Air Force conducted a 22-year investigation which ended in 1969 and
concluded that UFOs are not a threat to national security and are of no
scientific interest. But as one of the world's leading theoretical
physicists says in the program, "You simply cannot dismiss the possibility
that some of these UFO sightings are actually sightings from some object
created by ... a civilization perhaps millions of years ahead of us in
technology."

"Peter Jennings Reporting: UFOs - Seeing Is Believing" is produced by PJ
Productions and Springs Media for ABC News. Mark Obenhaus and Tom Yellin
are the executive producers.

UK - British Defense says Life Forms May Exist

LONDON, Feb 3 (AFP) - Undaunted by the lack of evidence, officials at the
British defence ministry are refusing to rule out the existence of alien
life forms visiting Earth, the Financial Times reported Thursday. It quoted
from a hitherto confidential letter by an official acknowledging the
ministry recorded accounts of people claiming to have seen alien life in
Britain. According to the letter, obtained under recent legislation on
freedom of information, such reports are collected "solely to establish
whether what was seen might have some defence significance."

While admitting that "only a handful of reports in recent years have
warranted further investigation and none revealed an evidence of a threat,"
it went on say the ministry was "totally open-minded" about the hypothesis
of alien life. Two weeks ago an anonymous caller reported seeing "strange
lights" above Kent, southeast England, while another claimed to have seen a
flying saucer sailing above Stoke, central England. The defence ministry
said such calls were only a fraction of the thousands it has recorded.
