Filer's Files #24 - 2005,
Skywatch Investigations

Sightings continue at high rate
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 alien craft. Assuming UFOs are real,
then much of what we know in science is wrong, that it is quite likely they
had a profound effect on the development of Earth. This week's files cover
Mars anomalies, Earth microbes may survive on Mars and UFOs in the movies.
UFOs were seen over Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii,
Illinois, Indiana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio,
Oklahoma, Texas, and Washington. Sightings were also reported in Brazil,
Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom.
Mars anomalies
Richard Buchli D.V.M. Ph.D. writes: This image is posted on the European
Space Agency site. I suggest you enlarge and lighten this ESA photo of
object on Mars. It sure looks like some kind of "modernistic" structure??
What do you think??
The European Space Agency Mars Express High-Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC)
obtained image data in orbit 438 with a ground resolution of 43 meters per
pixel. The images cover the structure Coprates Catena, a southern part of
the Valles Marineres canyon at about 14ø S and 301øE. Coprates Catena is a
chain of collapse structures with a depth of between 2500 to 3000 meters.
The valley walls show a few land slides. This indicates that their origin
is solely due to expansion of the surface or collapse with removal of
underlying material (water or ice?). On the valley floor, the bright area
exposed is possibly sulfates.
Editors Note: Just above the bright area in the image that could be an
ancient lake are structures or square blocks that may indicate ancient
construction On the canyon wall there is what appears to be writing? Also
the green areas indicate plant or alga growth.

Earth microbes may survive on Mars
NASA reports that terrestrial microbes that hitch a ride to Mars on
spacecraft may be able to survive under special circumstances, according to
a new laboratory study. The research suggests scientists should take extra
care when analyzing potential signs of life during future missions to the
Red Planet.
Most spacecraft that touch down on Mars have not been thoroughly sterilized
by heat or radioactivity - so they carry with them living microbes from
Earth. But Mars's thin atmosphere allows such intense ultraviolet radiation
to reach the planet's surface - triple that found on Earth - that any life
inadvertently carried on the spacecraft is thought to be wiped out quickly.
Indeed, Martian-level doses of UV radiation have destroyed some microbe
species in just seconds in laboratory tests.
But now, an international team has tested the endurance of a particularly
hardy type of blue-green alga - or cyanobacterium - that thrives in dry
deserts from Antarctica to Israel. The resilient bacterium, called
Chroococcidiopsis sp. 029, was chosen as a "worst-case scenario" for
contamination of the planet.
The team found that dormant spores of the bacterium had mostly died after
five minutes of Martian UV exposure. However, the bacteria were able to
stay alive if they were shielded by just 1 millimeter of soil during the
tests, which ran for up to 24 hours. Making a living under such a
protective coating, the bacteria "could survive - and potentially grow -
under the high Martian UV flux if water and nutrient requirements for
growth were met". "We think there are places on Mars where Earth life could
make a living," says John Rummel, NASA's planetary protection officer in
DC, who is charged with preventing microbes from contaminating worlds
beyond Earth. He says this study shows "even the toughest stuff doesn't
survive for long" on the surface of spacecraft, but he says live microbes
probably do take shelter within the spacecraft bodies.
Martian gullies that may periodically be flooded with liquid water, or
areas around the poles, where "microbes and ice could make a happy
partnership", Rummel told New Scientist. Snip Thanks to

Editor's Note: In 1976, Mars Viking Lander's Life Probes and Gilbert V.
Levin's Labeled Release Life Detection Devices found microbial life on
Mars. I spoke with Dr. Levin who is more positive than ever that life was
found.

(SOL 556) with a green covering and a cap of material on top of the boulder
missing from surrounding rocks. Courtesy of Lunar and Planetary
Institute/Texas. Viking likely took photos of blue-green alga - or
cyanobacterium on Mars in 1976. In my opinion Mars has water, plant life
and evidence of ancient structures. NASA may deny life on Mars because it
is an ideal site for colonization. June through August, Earth is catching
up with Mars bringing us closer for at least 5000 years. It is slowly
becoming the brightest star or planet in the night sky.
Mars Rover Opportunity breaks free
"The Mars rover Opportunity resumed rolling freely across the Martian
surface on June 4, 2005, after it was freed from a sand dune where it had
been mired for nearly five weeks. The rover cost $400 million to build and
got caught in a one foot high sand dune on April 26.
Alabama high speed triangular objects
MONTGOMERY - A Security Officer on vehicle patrol near the downtown area at
2:45 AM, on May 25, 2005, noticed two strange objects flying above him.
They had strobe lights that emanated along the entire length of all 3 sides
of each object as well as 3 large pulsing lights under the bottom of each
object. He states, `I noticed a low humming noise coming from the triangles
that were flying at about 10,000 feet altitude.' The objects moved slowly
at first, almost seeming to hover, and after about 20 seconds they exited
to the west in a burst of speed that I can only describe as almost
instantaneous. The objects then stopped again and were only visible as 2
pulsing lights at that point. The objects again moved to the West and
disappeared completely. The objects maintained exact distance from each
other during this entire time and the altitude of the objects did not seem
to change during this sighting. The event lasted about 30 Seconds.

Arizona numerous lights light up the sky
CAVE CREEK -- Here in Phoenix the UFO activity is increasing and a fellow
named Josh is taping incredible lights appearing and seemingly taking off
at great speeds. The video is great and shows a series of lights. Josh's
video was one of many shot north of Phoenix. It was a clear night and no
winds. I have received e-mail from a resident living up there reporting
that they have seen the lights and they say they show up often but never
that bright. I, also, received an e-mail wondering if they were airplanes
but then that would mean there were 5 or 6 planes turning their lights on
at the same time and then turning them off, which is unlikely, especially
at that location. I also found out the distance from house to object(s)
may have been several miles away but close enough to hear them if they were
planes. Video footage (c)2005 Josh.

California triangle moving sideways
SACRAMENTO - The witness spotted a triangle shaped craft with distinct
illuminations on each corner at 2 PM, on May 25, 2005. The craft was about
the size of a pea at arm's length, and its speed was about twice as fast as
a high flying airliner. The object seemed to be traveling sideways towards
the south.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A shiny dime sized metallic object appeared out of nowhere
and vanished within 20 seconds over San Francisco on May 25, 2005, at 4:15
PM. I was on a tour boat on San Francisco Bay returning from Alcatraz
Island. I was with two friends but they did not witness what I saw because
by the time I told them it had already vanished. The boat was approaching
San Francisco Pier 41, when I noticed a shiny metallic gray object that
suddenly appeared over downtown San Francisco at no more than 10,000 feet.
It was the only object that caught my eye, from my view it appeared to be
just a bit smaller than a dime, it moved slowly upwards for about 10
seconds, then it rotated about 45 degree as if making a sharp left turn.
The bottom appeared flat with a slight bulge and a white center. There was
a shiny reflection that lasted about 10 seconds, then it changed to a
diamond shape and sped upwards at incredible speed and vanished completely
leaving no trace. The sky was mostly clear except for patches of low fog
over the bay.

SONORA -- Mark A. Olson, D. M. writes, `After a few quiet nights, the
sightings continue. There have been some very strange sightings of flashing
objects and more glowing objects on June 4, 2005.'
The above images are of the flashing object that was videotaped at 10:23 PM
last night. The object made no sound and flew in an erratic zigzag fashion
roughly to the northeast. The flashes were the only visible evidence of the
object.
Out of six glowing objects sighted last night, three occurred right after
the other between 10:54 and 10:59 PM. The first two of the trio headed to
the South, the third to the North. Each one appeared, brightened, and then
slowly disappeared as they moved farther and farther away. (Please note
that these sightings were felt before they happened. My brother and I both
felt that these objects were going to appear just before they did, as
documented on the video clips.) These video clips can be seen here:

Florida glowing orbs
ORANGE COUNTY -- Roberta Puhalski, writes, `On April 22, 2005 about 11 PM,
the Georgia UFO Group Hotline received a cell phone call from just north of
Orlando where three Orange County fishermen had just observed at 20 yards a
glowing orb type of UFO. The orb performed incredible maneuvers at a
fantastic speed. They were so shocked; they phoned 411 and asked for the
Operator to get them in touch with any UFO investigator that could be
found. They reached Tom Sheets of GUFOG in Fayetteville, Georgia who turned
the case over to Roberta Puhalski, the founder of the Central Florida UFO
Group in Lakeland. Roberta Puhalski met with the three witnesses at the
event site two days later and conducted a complete investigation. She
determined that the witnesses while night fishing and shining a flashlight
observed what was initially thought to be an alligator's eye reflecting
their flashlight beam about 20 yards away in some bushes. Suddenly the
light rose up from the bushes into full sight at an alarmingly fast speed
and was observed to be a dimly glowing orangish-red orb about the size of a
basketball (+). The orb continued to rise at this very fast rate until it
reached an altitude of about 150 feet, then it hovered, moved to the side
about 100 feet, and then came back down, tracing something like a triangle
in it's flight path.
The object moved so fast it was difficult for the eye to follow. He added
that there appeared to be an object of unknown size and shape behind or
attached to the orb, but it was difficult to see exactly what it was (due
to rapid speed and brief period of flight). This object flew off and
vanished after returning closer to the ground. Puhalski found these
witnesses credible, forthright and cooperative.

Hawaii a UFO was seen over volcano
MAUNA KEA VOLCANO - A private airplane pilot and amateur astronomer was
walking on Jade Avenue in Volcano, at 7:35 PM, on May 24, 2005, and saw a
classic disc shaped UFO hovering between Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea.
My vision is not the best and this could have been a lenticular cloud. The
sun had set and the sky was clear. There was just one UFO and the color
appeared to be gray. The event lasted perhaps five minutes. There are a
military base, and astronomical observatories in that area.

Illinois fireworks UFO
IPAVA -- The UFO looked like a fireworks rocket that shoots up but never
explodes. On May 20, 2005, at 10:08 PM, three friends were swinging on a
swing set in a public park in small town of about 540 people. They saw an
object shooting from the ground up at about 50 meters from behind a tall
tree. They waited for it to explode like professional fireworks do, but it
didn't! There was dead silence. There were about ten small bright balls of
light lined straight up and they disappeared altogether. As they
disappeared I saw one of the middle balls curve out of formation with the
other and there were airplanes or jets flying behind it. Then we saw a
bright yellow light swerve all over the place but it slowly got dimmer and
dimmer until it was gone.
Thanks Peter Davenport Director www.UFOcenter.com

ROCKFORD -- On the morning of May 15, 2005, Nancy was photographing what
looked like the Northern Lights, only 'white' at 3 AM. She thought she was
photographing lights on a clear night and she believes the object clearly
shows portholes running along its length. There is a 'blue cast to the
object' and a blurred trail to the left of the object that appears the
object was moving from left to right at some speed.

Indiana black shape-shifting black mass
SOUTH BEND -- At 7:45 PM on May 25, 2005, the witness saw a black
shape-shifting black mass in the sky traveling in a gentle southeast to
northwest direction about two miles south of the Indiana and Michigan
border between Niles, Michigan and South Bend, Indiana.
I watched this phenomenon for at least 20 minutes before it was obscured by
moving clouds. Several jets flew by and the black shape-shifting mass
seemed to be at the same altitude, but moving very slowly.

Nevada multiple orange colored objects
LAS VEGAS - On June 5, 2005, a woman reported that she and a neighbor
witnessed a number of flying objects between 5:45 and 6:40 PM. Some of the
objects were alone and the last sighting on the same day ended up being a
large orange, pulsating cluster of objects. An audio report can be heard
at: http://www.hbccufo.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=2762

New Jersey sunset photograph of orbs
NORTH BERGEN -- John Schuessler MUFON's Director reports, Marc Taylor was
standing on his balcony which looks out towards the west, and took a
picture of a nice sunset, when he uploaded the image to his computer he
noticed weird orbs in the photo. He states, `I didn't see the orbs when I
took the picture only when I reviewed it later.'
