*********** ************* **********
Date: 1964
Time: 12:30 a.m.
Number of witnesses: 300
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Metallic saucer x3
Full Description of event/sighting: I was a student at a catholic school
in Melbourne, Australia. On this day we were used to cleaning up the
school yard in silence. Before a bell sounded and only then, could we
continue our lunch recess. During the silence period all of 300 school
kids were doing the usual, collecting of rubbish etc. when the kid next to
me says look at those. I looked up and saw 3 disks in tripod formation and
stationary above us, directly above us. It was a clear cloudless day. From
light blue to a very deep darkish blue 2nd sighting, close encounter.
Visibility was excellent. The estimated height was about 6,000 to 10
,000.feet. The UFO in the front of the formation moved to a 45 degree
angle, still stationary and took off at such a speed you saw it for a nano
second.
Twenty seconds later it came back at a massive speed and stopped in it's
original position. The back two UFOs maneuvered the exact same maneuver
and took off, then returning and pulling up at their original positions.
The sun was intensifying the metallic structure of these craft. Then they
all moved into a single file, as maneuvering one on top of the other then
returned back to their positions, stationary. What a show of formation
movement. Then they all took off north, south and west and were gone. As
you can imagine the whole school was a buzz with excitement. We were told
to line up in our respective class lines and returned to our class rooms,
our lunch period cut short. Later that afternoon we were told they were
weather balloons and there was a ban on talking about what we saw.
There was no mention in the media or papers about this incident/sighting.
Second sighting of a close encounter. An unusual family walking down
country road in New Zealand, year 1980. This took place in Gisborne North
Island. The time of the encounter was 3:00pm in the afternoon and was
observed by my wife and I. We lived on property just outside of town and
we were walking back along the country road, returning from a shop where
we bought some ice-cream. There were no other persons or cars on road.
Suddenly up ahead of us at a distance of 200 meters was a family, two
adults and two children. Nothing unusual you may be thinking. They were
walking toward us on the same side of the road. The first strange moment I
noticed was they were walking all in line abreast of each other, in
perfect timing in their walk and body movements and looking straight ahead
at us. You would expect kids to walk ahead, kick some stones and act like
kids. Not this family. It was odd behavior walking as in a military
fashion and all in sync. Then I noticed their dress, all of them had a
mixed match of world cultural garments on.
The oldest male had a South American like shawl and what looked like
Peruivan shoes, and a strange hat like a cashmere cap. This was how they
were all dressed, dressed in a collage of international clothing. It
looked like they had no idea of ever being in human clothing. Now they
were only 30 meters in front of us, still in a perfect horizontal line.
All of them holding our gaze. They never took their eyes off us. Their
skin was olive and their eyes were the bluest dark blue.
Their pupils were like slits, cats eyes only horizontal. Their hair was
dark and the children's ages were around, the male child 10 years of age.
The female child was around 13 years old and the adults were maybe in
their late 20s. My wife at this time was squeezing my hand so hard she was
cutting or my circulation. We moved to the center of road and they kept on
walking toward us, but never strayed from their course, or their unusual
gait or movement which was unusual, very unusual. As they were right
beside us, only two meters to our left they were staring at us without
turning their head or changing their strange body behavior. No one spoke.
My wife was in fear, dragging and quickening her pace. I was not scared or
in fear as I knew somehow they wanted help. I was thinking this to myself
when I turned around to look at them. They were 10 meters from me walking
in perfect formation with their backs facing us. Then they all turned in
the exact moment, you couldn't have managed the timing and sequence that
they performed. This turn was chilling and at the same time. If you
trained to do what they did, we couldn't have achieved their movement. I
don't care who you are. It was as if they had one mind or telepathic. As
they stood there looking at us still in line. I couldn't believe what was
happening. I was getting strong thoughts that they were in trouble. My
wife started pulling me up the road and only 10 seconds elapsed when I
turned around again and they were not there. Open fields as far as the eye
could see there was no possible hiding place, they were gone. Humans do
not do the things these visitors were doing, I know. I've always known
these beings were not part of our world.

Brownwood, Texas Strange And Unusual Lights
Date: Summer of 1997
Time: Approx. 9:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 5
Shape of objects: Round
Full Description of event/sighting: I was passing through the area north
and west of Brownwood while driving toward Lubbock, Texas, from Austin,
Texas. It was in the late evening, around 9:00 pm. Please note this was
mid-summer and at 9:00 pm one could still see quite well, it was dark
enough for headlights, but the outline of trees on the horizon could be
seen. I was not alone, I had a passenger who saw it, too. I have a habit
of constantly looking around me outside the vehicle when I'm driving.
Suddenly in the sky to the right, outside the passenger's window I saw a
light come on. It was above the horizon, above the tree line.
Nothing was in front of, behind, or below the light. It was as if the
light was floating in the sky. This was just the beginning. In a matter
of seconds a second light came on a short distance to the left and above
the other light. Then at equal intervals a third, fourth, and finally
fifth light came on. These lights formed a line approximately a hundred
feet across and at approximately a 10 degree angle to the horizon. As we
watched, the lights then went off in reverse sequence. We were beside
ourselves in awe. The lights had no visible contact with any building or
craft. I know this because we could still see the outline of trees
against the sky. These lights were above the trees, and appeared to be
floating above the trees.
Suddenly a light appeared ahead of us above the horizon, above the tree
line and the sequence started over. The lights would come on one by one,
and then go off one by one. The lights were the color of a cigarette in
the dark, an orange yellow.
For the next ten or fifteen minutes, as we were traveling northwest, we
watched this strange display of lights in various positions in the sky.
First to our right, then ahead of us, then back to the right. It seemed
as if some invisible craft was moving around us, flashing its lights off
and on.
I will swear to the authenticity of this event. In fact, about three
months after the sighting, I was watching a documentary on UFO sightings
and I saw the same exact thing. Someone else had seen the same type of
lights in the sky and had video-taped them. I called my friend, he turned
on the TV and we discussed the fact that we had witnessed the same type of
event.

Billerica, Massachusetts Large UFO Lifts Witness Off Home Deck
December 2004
I thought you might interested in this UFO report I filed to MUFON in
December of 2004, I cant explain why but Anne and I want to finally share
our experience with others. Since this sighting strange things have been
happening in the house for instance, the microwave oven would start
beeping at random, were on our 3rd oven. A shelf fell off the wall in the
kitchen which I know doesn't sound that strange but it's the type that the
fingers on the side brackets have to be tapped down in the rails, I
installed it and remember I had to tap the brackets down with a little
force, for the brackets to fall off you would have to tap up on them.
Strange sounds would come from the TV and radio. Anne would see pot
covers fly of the shelf and land several feet away.
Many other things happened but I can't get into them right now, plus it
would usually happen in the day and I work full time, Anne would tell me
when I got home. Anne also had regressive hypnosis and her account was
the same. I tried the hypnosis but I wasn't receptive to it. One other
thing did happen that I remembered a few days later, when Anne was on the
floor I remembered giving her CPR, after I got her off the floor and on to
the couch I looked into the kitchen and saw what looked like snow or fine
pellets of Styrofoam pouring in through the sliding door ( I guess didn't
shut it all the way). After icing my hand for awhile I told Anne I'm
going in the garage to get the shop vac to clean up the mess when I looked
again all the white stuff was gone and the small carpet in the kitchen was
dry. Also the white light outside looked like it flowed like a liquid
wrapping itself around everything, did not notice any shadows. By the way
this happened in Billerica, Massachusetts. I know it sounds incredible
but this really happened, hope to hear from you soon.
Below: The Actual Sighting Report Which Was Filed To MUFON.
(Recount of a UFO sighting experienced by Robert and Anne).
At approximately 7:10 on Sunday night (12/12/04) I was in my kitchen
preparing dinner, my friend Anne was in the living room working on a
crossword puzzle. I have a sliding glass door which leads to a deck off
of the kitchen, Anne and I just got home so the curtain was not drawn yet.
Out of the corner of my right eye I saw a huge ball of brilliant white
light coming towards the house from the west, it was above treetop level
but not by much. In my mind I compared the size to be like looking at a
full moon on a clear night maybe bigger and as it neared it got bigger and
bigger. I called to Anne to take a look, she was as surprised as I was.
We went out onto the deck to get a better look because of the glare from
internal lights on the glass door. It stopped above the house and was
absolutely huge, 2 maybe 3 football fields. The white light engulfed
everything. One thing I noticed was that the light did not hurt our eyes.
It hovered a few minutes with absolutely no noise, then all of a sudden a
pale blue light came out of the bottom of this thing, the thing that was
odd about the blue light is that it formed a perfect square on the deck.
The size was big enough to fully engulf Anne. All of a sudden Anne
started to lift up off the deck, I immediately opened the sliding door
with my left hand, jumped up and wrapped my right around Anne’s waist,
with a hooking motion I threw Anne into the kitchen then ran in and shut
the door, when I looked back the light was gone. Anne was out cold for
about a minute, when she came too she said all she remembered seeing the
blue light and hearing me say that the blue light was square, that’s when
she must of blacked out. Shortly after Anne awoke the phone rang, I was
so shook up I couldn’t answer it so Anne did. The call was from my
sister she was in her car with her husband about 4 to 5 miles south east
of us.
She told Anne she saw a ball of white light with a trailing blue tail. At
first she thought it was a meteorite but ruled that out because it was so
low and moving parallel with the ground. Soon after the call ( which by
the way according to my caller id the time was 7:21) I noticed my right
hand was burning and there were a couple of blisters below my middle
finger, For some reason that I cant explain I knew the blisters would be
gone in the morning, which they did, so I had Anne take a picture of my
hand with my digital camera. I wish I had the camera with me on the deck
but everything happened too fast. Anne and I are still shook up about all
this but are willing to meet and answer any questions you may have.
Sincerely: Robert and Anne.

Western Edge, City Of Jackson, Michigan Bright Round White Lights
Date: August, 2005
Time: 8:00pm & 6:35am
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Bright round, white lights.
Full Description of event/sighting: At about 8:00pm one August evening in
2005, a friend and I were sitting in his parked vehicle outside my
apartment complex in the city of Jackson, Michigan. While we were talking
I happened to glance to the southeast and I saw a bright, white light in
the sky moving to the northwest. Being summertime with a clear sky, it
was light enough out to make out the body of an aircraft if one was there.
The light moved for a few seconds and then disappeared. My friend saw it
disappear as well. Nine days later, as I was preparing to leave for work
at about 6:35am, I noticed a bright, white light to the southwest. It did
not appear to be that far away. It was light enough to make out a
conventional aircraft if that's what it was. However, after looking at
the light for about five seconds it disappeared. There were few if any
clouds in the sky and I never saw blinking lights take the place of the
object that had disappeared. Curiously, the object was in an area of the
sky that was the most easily observed by me as I walked toward my truck in
the parking lot. It seemed to me that it wanted to be very noticeable.

Upstate New York Unusual Happenings In My Life
Date: 2005-2006
I will tell you now about the things that have been happening in my life
as of 2005-2006. It all starts with Christmas of 2004. My wife bought me
a telescope [in the medium range of telescopes] as I had always wanted
one. I have been interested in the stars since I was young in upstate NY.
I started a weekly routine of going out early in the morning hours to
looks at the stars with my new telescope. Sometime in the beginning of
the year I saw my first strange object in space. I saw what I thought at
the time was a huge explosion in space. I saw one early morning two
cylindrical objects just appear in the direction of the Pleiades and
travel at a very high speed in a northerly direction. During the daytime
I was outside with my binoculars sitting in my hot tub scanning the sky
when all of a sudden a red triangular object caught my eye traveling very
high up through the cumulus nimbus clouds covering the sky that particular
day.
Now this is the one that bothers me until this very day. I was outside
say about 3:00 am and had a large flashlight with me and my really good
binoculars. That morning the stars seemed to act strange to me. What I'm
trying to say is they seemed to move but, you weren't sure whether you saw
what you saw or maybe your eyes were playing tricks on you. Anyway, this
star like light traveling at a cruising speed flew over me at a reasonably
high elevation. I shined my flashlight in his or its direction. It
stopped, so did my heart. I stood there looking up and it turn in a wide
arc and came back up over me. It just sat there high up above me and I
felt scared, thinking maybe it was scanning me. It was the weirdest
feeling like your being watched by something. While I was fixed on the
object I had not noticed a second light came up along side the first one.
If you noticed I said these were star like, white spheres.
I went in the house. All I could think about is what have I done, maybe
this might jeopardize my family. I was really stressing out over this. I
went to our spare bedroom on the other side of our house and peeked out
the window. They were still there. They stayed up there until the
morning light started coming up. Since this incident I see star movement
all the time and since this incident there comes a sound that at first
drove me crazy. It sounds like a car sometime at a long way off but then
it seems to come at a very high speed outside, like someone is racing the
engine outside somewhere. Sometime it intense, other times it toned down
some. I have had my ears checked and nothing is wrong. I had a heart
attack in April of 2006.
They did a angioplasty on me and found a small blockage in one of the
branches that go into the heart. It was scary but, not like that night
when I shine my light on an object high in the sky and got a reaction. I
can look out my window almost any night and see what seems to me to be a
star but when I put the binoculars on it, it seems to come alive,
pulsating moving in and out of this big tree in our neighbor yard. It's
like it knows when I look. While I was home recuperating I did not here
the sound or did I see aggressive stars or ? I'm a 61 year old man
retired from a large utility company and I never thought this would happen
to me. I never really believed in such things UFOs but, I certainly do
now. I still shine my light whenever I feel like it. It's strange because
those light still interact with the light. Maybe I'm playing with fire.
I think or hope nothing has happened yet.

Castlegar, British Columbia Star Wars Like Battle In The Night Sky
HBCC UFO Research Note: Last night, Saturday September 16, 2006 my wife
answered the telephone and there was a lady who wanted to speak with me
over some really unusual things taking place in Castlegar, British
Columbia, her home town. One incident took place approximately 42
kilometers outside of Castlegar, British Columbia where they watched what
looked like a battle happening above them in the clear night sky. Dark
shadows, or craft of something appeared to be doing battle, or something
very unusual. One object looked like it may have either hit one of the
mountains in the area or at least just above the mountain as the entire
valley, mountain, etc lit up like it was daytime. One of the witnesses to
this did call the RCMP in Castlegar and also called KBS Radio out of Trail
since KBS Radio covers the entire area.
Anyway, I will be keeping in contact with the lady and I will be writing
up this report in full as soon as I can. One more point on this, I was
told that the RCMP had been taking calls from other people on many unusual
things being seen in the night skies in that area. I should also note as
this is very important, at the time of the phone call to me, the lady was
watching things happening in the sky at the time of the call to me. She
was very excited about what was happening, not to mention she had been
crying over the event that took place over the mountain.
------
HBCC UFO Research Note: I received a report earlier from a fellow from the
same area, "Caledon, Ontario" (Badlands) which happened on August 2, 2006.
I just spoke to the witness today on the telephone and he informed me
that he and his wife were out on the area known as the Badlands with a
camera set up on a tripod. They were not expecting anything to happen, but
they soon found themselves in a very frightening situation. As he told me
on the telephone today he and his wife watched as an object came from high
above, out of the atmosphere and stopped a ways away from them and sat
there. The object, after a period of time shot back up and disappeared.
All this was caught on still photos. He explained that the images are
crystal clear and both him and his wife are baffled as to what this may
have been. Also I should note, while all this was happening, there was a
commotion in the trees & bushes around them.
Caledon, Ontario Unusual Red Lights Above The Tree-Line
Date: September 21, 2006
Time: 8:50 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 5
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Light
Full Description of event/sighting: Hello, Last night outside my bedroom
window I happen to be watching a distant red light which I thought was a
plane at first, However, It seemed to be descending too quickly for an
airplane. It seemed odd so I called my kids into the room to see how fast
this light was moving. Before this light descended behind our tree line
the light changed to what looked like a flashing white strobe light. It
stopped its descent and started to move very quickly horizontally right
and then left about three or four times. After that it descended out of
our view beyond the tree line. The kids and I were still staring at that
site to see if we would see anymore of it when a second red light started
descending in the same path the first one took. Again the light turned
white and flashing and did a similar horizontal movement above our tree
line as the first did. This happened in Caledon in a northeast direction.
Seeing one strange moving object was odd but seeing the second right
after definitely made me want to tell someone.

Date: September 21, 2006
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Sort of Rectangular.
Full Description of event/sighting: Hi, I just received a phone call from
my friend in Richmond, she lives near No. 2 Rd. and Blundell in a sixth
floor apartment facing east. She was all excited and told me she had just
been talking on the phone when she glanced out her window and saw a large
space ship slowly heading east towards Mt. Baker.
I asked her how large was it:
Answer- About the same as a Jumbo jet.
Shape - Sort of rectangular and covered with lumps or protrusions.

grab her binoculars and get a better look. She called me as soon as she
got free, to see if I had seen it but it would have been behind my bldg.
She apparently watched it for several minutes

Over Greater Vancouver Area Object Hovering Over Vancouver, B.C.
Date: September 22, 2006
Time: 2:30-3:00 a.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: ?
Shape of objects: Orbs
Full Description of event/sighting: We had decided to climb a mountain in
North Vancouver. From that location you can clearly see over the greater
Vancouver area, all the way to Tsawwassen and can oversee Boundary Bay. We
spotted something hovering over the city (Looked like it was over
Vancouver itself) for a few seconds, and I decided to try to take a
picture of it. By the time I went to take the picture, the round object we
saw had vanished. In the pictures that I took at that time I did not see
anything unusual. When we got home and looked over some of the other
pictures we took, we happened to notice other round objects. While taking
these pictures, neither of us saw anything. Two of these pictures were
taken in short succession of each other, one was taken at 2:56:00 and the
other at 2:56:01.
These pictures imply that a round object moved quite a far distance in a
very short period of time. The object appears in these pictures as if it
appears out of thin air. The object in the second picture appears blurry,
even though the shutter speed on the camera was 1/800 th of a second. For
this shutter speed, something would have to be traveling very fast in
order to be blurred.

Fair Oaks, California Small Orange Round Lights.
Date: September 23, 2006
Time: 10:40 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 3-5
Shape of objects: Small orange round lights.
Full Description of event/sighting: Around 10:40 pm on Saturday, Sept 23,
2006 I was driving east on Fair Oaks blvd. in Fair Oaks, CA. My
sister-in-law was sitting in the front seat. We both noticed orange lights
in the sky not moving. I mentioned the lights and she thought it was just
her seeing things. As we got closer my sister who was sleeping in the back
woke up from all the commotion. We were almost right under the lights when
we had to turn to drop off my sister-in-law. When we turned the lights
were behind us. My sister could see them, there where three lights and
then two others appeared out of no where. Then the lights looked like they
where dropping other lights. There was no noise when I opened my window.
The lights then just disappeared. Me and my sister then drove home from
there. My sister said she saw more lights about 10 minutes later. Then she
saw helicopters going toward the lights. Nothing was ever mentioned on the
news so we have know idea what the lights were that we saw. We don't
believe in aliens but now I am unsure what to think or believe. This was
just to freaky to me to not think something might be out there. I would
like to know if anyone else has seen these lights and if anyone has any
information of what it might be.

Castlegar, British Columbia Objects Knocks Out Radio Phone
Posted: September 24, 2006
HBCC UFO Research Note: Sunday morning, September 24, 2006 at 2:00 a.m.
(PST) I awoke to the telephone ringing. I jumped out of bed and answered
the phone and talked to a man who was reporting some very unusual things
happening "again" in Castlegar, British Columbia and this event was being
reported by a different witness. When I was speaking to the man he was
calling from his truck on a radio phone. He was explaining what was
happening in the sky as it was unfolding, all of a sudden the telephone
connection was lost and I had no way of getting him back. I stayed up for
a short while hoping the fellow would call again, which he did using a
normal phone line.
The static and dropping out while we were talking was terrible. But I did
manage to ask if the UFO event was still happening and he said yes. We
both wondered if the phone problems were caused by the unknown objects. He
stated that while in his truck using the radio phone, all of a sudden the
radio phone started to switch channels which he had no control over. I
asked if this had ever happened before and he said no. The gentleman is
going to contact me today and hoping to get a full report on the events.
