Numerous New UFO Images
The purpose of these files is to report weekly the UFO eyewitness and
photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in
space. Many people claim it is impossible for UFOs to visit Earth, I ask
you only to keep an open mind and watch the evidence we accumulate each
week. These Files make the assumption that extraterrestrial intelligent
life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that of the over one hundred
UFOs reported each week many represent a factual UFO sighting
Mars - Evidence of vegetation, and water from Mars Express Satellite.
On April 8th in North America crescent-shaped sunbeams will dapple the
ground during a partial solar eclipse.
UFOs were seen over Arizona, California, Connecticut, Nevada, New Mexico,
New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon and Texas. Sightings were also
reported in Canada, Mexico, the UK and Yugoslavia in WW II.
European Space Agency Photo by Mars Express
Mars - Evidence of Water and Vegetation
Norman Bryden writes, `I have discovered and processed the following images
that show water and vegetation. In the following sections of images there
is evidence of live surface vegetation on Mars.' I have brightened up a few
of the images to help see the colors and detail. I have studied thousands
of Mars images and it is my opinion that there is vegetation, and probable
higher forms of life on Mars. Generally vegetation needs some water and now
what appears to be lakes and streams are being found. Look at the European
Space Agency images yourself.

Mars - Hale Crater Ranch - Correction
Kurt Arenhold writes, `The farmland-pattern is a result of jpg-compression
of the texture image.

(monochrome, no artifacts)
I contacted Bruce Maccabee based on Kurt's comments: Bruce Maccabee writes,
`The Hale crater structures 'desert farming' have been explained as an odd
artifact of the picture processing which involved first digitization of the
image (breaking it into discrete brightness levels). stereo processing to
give relative heights of the various portions of the image and, finally,
rotation of the image to give a perspective view. The initial image, a
straight down view of the crater, does not show these same structures. The
original and the rotated view and some other versions are available for
viewing at
http://berlinadmin.dlr.de/Missions/express/first/24.11.2004_eng.shtml
The first picture at that web side is the basic color image. The area of
the "structures" is the upper right. The fourth image down is the
stereo-digital-processed perspective image where the structures do appear
in the lower left (lower left because the image was rotated in creating the
perspective view).
Editor's Note: The photos are taken from the Mars Express satellite and
when blown up to show detail some distortions may occur. It is difficult to
ascertain when pixilation occurs.
Arizona - Triangle of Lights
QUEEN CREEK -- My husband and I live in a farm community with lots of land
out there, and away from the city lights of Phoenix. My husband saw a
possible UFO in the last week of March, while in the backyard having a
cigarette at 1 AM. He looked into the northern sky to see a strange light
in the shape of a 'triangle'. He watched it for a few seconds waiting to
see if it would move but it did not. The light was quite bright. He did see
the lights of a plane pass near by. Then the triangle shaped lights slowly
faded out until it was gone? I told him it was probably a UFO, and curious
to see if anyone else in Arizona saw this same sighting?
E-mail report.
PHOENIX -- Richard writes, "I am still seeing and taping these orbs just
about every clear day and night." On March 30, 2005 at 8:26 PM, we saw an
orb that was not a plane or meteorite. No flashing lights and no contrail.
It is not a satellite because it's way too big and bright. SO it must be an
orb. I saw this one coming in from the southwest heading east and it was
moving very fast around 3Kft.-5Kft. After taping the object for a minute it
just turned off like it was on a dimmer switch. I think that all of these
orbs are generally the same size between 3 to 5 feet and have a tremendous
amount of energy. The altitude of these objects probably determines the
size of these orbs. It seems like every ten times I go out and tape these
orbs, I will catch one this low in the sky. That's why this one looks so
big and bright. Also, when I tried to zoom in on the orb it looked like a
disc on its side. I think this happens with bright objects out of focus so
I do not know if it is a solid object or just an orb. Well it's more than
just an orb to me. You can view Richard's website at: http://www.cnufos.com

California - Video of Plane and UFO
SONORA - Johnny the witness reports, `At 12:30 PM, Friday, March 25th, I
witnessed what I thought was a cigar shaped object traveling to the west
that appeared to be wingless and concave flattened.' It was a long metallic
object traveling at a speed so slow that a conventional aircraft would've
fallen out of the sky. It was twice the size of a passenger jet and
probably 3 miles away at 4500 feet. I observed it for 50 seconds, slowly
move off until I lost it due to my roof and trees.
About an hour later, with my video equipment, I started following jets as I
find them to be a great 'telephoto target'. I had been following a number
of jets for about an hour when I started filming one heading south when
suddenly I noticed a large brightly glowing object underneath the jet as it
passed over. Obviously, I stopped following the jet and followed the object
for almost a full three minutes as it headed west against the wind before
it was lost behind a tree at 2:45 PM. Photos taken:

SONORA -- Jeff Challender writes, I investigated your story in Filer's
Files #12, that asked "What is it?" The object taped on 9 March 2005, was
the International Space Station (ISS)! This was a 63 degree pass over North
Highlands. I taped this pass myself, at exactly the same time, as part of
my ongoing work for Project P.R.O.V.E. March 7, 8 and 9 ISS series traveled
from the southwest to northeast. ISS is VERY bright in the sky, even
shortly after sunset. In fact, it's the brightest object in the evening sky
except for the Moon. Even Venus can't compete. This website shows
predictions of ISS passes. There is a whole range of useful sky info on
this website.

Connecticut - Strange Video
MANCHESTER - I am just an amateur photographer with my focus on local
wildlife. On Saturday, March 26, 2005, late afternoon, after coming home
from a local pond/park my attention was grabbed by the prism in the air
traffic pollution. I have seen these before but never had a chance to get a
photo. I decided that on this day I'd try to observe if the trail from the
plane would make the prism go away or get stronger as you can see it goes
directly to the prism. I own a digital camera, Fuji s5000. I came home,
emptied the card in the computer. I double check all my photos before
deleting as I more often than not find "extras." Last example being I had
my eye on a male mallard sitting on a small patch of grass near water.
Only when I got home did I see he was keeping company with a turtle, not a
rock. I never saw the weird light/lights with my eyes. Only after looking
at them on here, the PC, did my husband catch this. It may be a sun
reflection camera. Though, those usually leave colored circles on my
photos. I would love to get some kind of feedback on this as curiosity is
killing me. Any feedback would be most greatly appreciated!
Thanks to Elliott & Kim
Minnesota - Flying Triangle
PLYMOUTH -- Lead Operations Specialist (name deleted) was driving home from
work on Highway 494 northbound at 9 PM, on March 2, 2005. He states, `I saw
this huge, white, bright light that was more like three really bright,
white lights that just ran together in the sky. It was flying very low only
500 feet high or so and I thought a plane was going to crash??? It wasn't
moving, made no noise and I was approaching it quite fast. The lights were
so bright! And I was now about to drive directly underneath it and as I
looked up I could see from directly below that it was triangular shaped.
Like a scalene triangle, but symmetric. I could see it was black on the
bottom with some sporadic little lights on it. Creepy! The weirdest thing
is after I drove under it, I saw this dark object in the air behind it. It
looked like the bottom of what I had just seen. The lights were so faint; I
barely saw it moving through the air. This aircraft was actually moving,
but had no lights on. There was a lot of traffic on the highway too so
others saw it. There was no mention about it in the news.
Thanks to Brian Vike
New Jersey - Speeding Light
UNION -- A UFO sighting report has been received from MUFON. John states,
`I went out for a moment in front of the house and saw a beam of light
travel from one side of the sky to the other. This just happened at
approximately 7:27PM, March 10, 2005. The sky was partly cloudy at the
moment this occurred.

Nevada - UFO Flying Near Fighters
NELLIS AIR BASE - The photographer writes, `I Joe Held took this photo
sometime in August of 2000 out at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas. At
the time of this particular shot, all I can say for sure, is that I did not
see any of the objects except for the Jet. I only found this picture today,
April 3, 2005 as I was going through hundreds of photos I had taken with my
Sony Mavica digital camera in the two years I lived in Vegas. I'm not
saying what the object might be, only that if you compare them to the Jet
Aircraft, they look much too big to be birds. Also in the photo is a F-15
that appears to be roughly the same size.

New York - UFOs Over Lake and River
WATKINS GLEN -- A few years ago I was traveling north on Route 14, having
just left Watkins Glen, NY. My niece, who was in her late teens in the
summer of 2000, was accompanying me in my vehicle. I looked to my right and
spotted a dark grey colored object in a stationary position above Seneca
Lake. It appeared to be shaped quite like a derby hat with a dome shaped
top and rim around the bottom. Because Seneca Lake is a large body of
water, even at its narrowest point, I could discern the object was quite
huge because it loomed large over the water. I alerted my niece to look and
she spotted the object and I asked her to describe what she saw. She
described the object in the same manner as I viewed it. We watched the
object for about 15 seconds when it simply disappeared. We did not see it
fly off; it just vanished. Having been a resident of the Finger Lakes
region for nearly 38 years, I have been intrigued by UFO sightings in the
region. I had heard of a large triangular shaped object that flew silently
over a field and heard of a UFO landing to the east of Watkins Glen. I
always wondered if UFO's were spotted in the region because a facility
called the Seneca Army Weapons Depot was located on the east side of the
lake and is a high priority target.

New York - Diamond Shape UFO
LATHAM -The witness reports, `I am a 43 year old lawyer, with excellent
eyesight. I was standing outside of my vehicle at 8:10 PM, on an unlit area
near Latham Circle, between Route 9 and Interstate 87. I am an avid sky
watcher, and I was facing east towards the Hudson River, which was about
four miles to the east. I saw movement and saw a black diamond lit at each
corner with a dim orange light flying at an altitude of 3,000 feet.
There was good visibility and each of these four dim lights marked each
point of the diamond. These "corner lights" did not blink or flash. The
vehicle blocked the stars behind it as it passed with absolute silence. I
was lucky to see it, as the entire presentation, while flatly unmistakable,
was quite subtle. It was huge, a couple of hundred yards long and a hundred
yards wide. It was gliding to the north at a constant speed of about 100
MPH, and seemed to be following the Hudson River. There was a fifth, and
possibly sixth light of the same size and color weaving between two of the
leading corner lights.
This more rapidly moving light spun apparently random circles and figure
eights around the leading (northern) corner light and the around the
western corner light. I have never seen anything manmade move with such
speed and maneuverability in the sky as did this fifth light. All of the
lights moved ahead together as a unified group, not withstanding that there
was internal movement within the group. As the vehicle drew away from my
position, all of the lights drew together into a tighter cluster, and
eventually a single point of light that I lost among the stars. This
pulling together of the lights was not merely a function of increasing
distance from my vantage point. It happened more quickly than that. A truly
amazing, and awe inspiring experience.
Thanks to James Bouck Jr. NYMUFON State Director 518-356-6367
Ohio - George Ritter Videos
FOSTORIA - George continues to send interesting images taken with his RCA
VHS video camera. This March 20, 2005, photo shows a rod or disc. The craft
are thought to be moving at over a thousand miles per hour causing some
elongating distortion above the farm.
Oregon - Possible Triangle Photographed
ROSEBURG --. Witness states: `I took this picture off my balcony in
Roseburg, Oregon at about 9:30 PM, on Sunday, January 16, 2005.' I noticed
the lights before they started moving. They were very dim at first but when
it started moving they brightened up considerably. It took about 20 minutes
to move out of sight over the mountains. I could not tell if it was round
or triangular, but I got the impression I was looking at a triangle from
the front because of the way the lights were placed.

Editor's Note: UFOs frequently brighten just before moving away at high
speed.
