San Francisco, California A Hovering Perfect Ball Enveloped By Fire
Date: July 1967
Time: About 9:30 or 9:45 pm
One evening my brother and I who is older than me were on our way home after spending a
few good hours at the boys club with our When we got about two blocks closer to home and as we finished crossing the street my brother told me that he saw something in the sky and that it looked like fire. But I didn't get to see it at that moment because it had just moved towards the northeast. So we started walking fast until we got to 12th Street and made a turn going north. I already started feeling like something was nearby when we got to the corner and looked up towards north and there it was, about the size of a four story building. It was from what I saw a perfect ball with fire coming up from under it, it was at least three blocks down the street which was Folsom Street and about ten story's above street level. It was just sitting there and we didn't hear any noise or any strange sounds at all.
Then it started to move towards the south. At that moment my brother grabbed me by my shoulders and we ran in the house. We didn't look out the window or say anything to our parents about it. We never even talked about it or said anything to anyone about that summer night. I'm sure many other people saw it because this took place at about 9:30. I have seen a few more UFO,s but they were nothing like the one in 1967.

Langley, British Columbia A Silent Craft The Size Of A 747 Hovers
Date: October 1987
Time: Dusk
I want to tell you of an experience my son and I had in October 1987 in Langley, British Columbia.
It was late evening, clear skies, ( at dusk). I saw, and showed my son what appeared to be (2) headlights of a large aircraft travelling from the southwest towards us. What bothered me was that an airplane so big, travelling so low was definitely in trouble. As we watched for a minute or so it came directly to and above the elementary school across our street. Then it suddenly turned, no arching, nothing. Just a complete left turn. It was then the whole length of Langley elementary school, hovering about 200 feet above it. If not less. It hovered there briefly then sped off in a northwesterly direction and disappeared from sight instantly. This is the pattern of travel we saw \--/ ( not sure of the name of that angle, ( obtuse maybe). My son called the Langley radio station at the end of our block and they saw nothing from their windows which faced the school. No one else came outside and we knew then as we know now we are not crazy. Langley radio said they would call us if someone else reported a sighting. We never did hear anything.
Description of what we saw; still remember 19 yrs later and still wonder about.
Very large flying object, saucer shaped and dull greyish or silver in colour. The time of evening made that hard to distinguish. Very large white lights all around, with small red lights between each white one. The white lights were so bright it hurt the eyes to look, yet gave no reflection outside of the craft. The whole area should have been lighted up like a football field at night, no reflections. Also the most amazing thing is the absence of sound, not a purr, nothing. As it sped away to the northwest we were astounded at the speed and all the while we were thinking in terms of actual aircraft. Not until much later did we come to realize we saw something unexplainable. Also we were in an apartment building and how could we have been the only witnesses? A silent craft the size of a 747 hovers in the air across the street and only son and me saw it? I don't think so. Could there be someone out there who remembers this event, and if so I'd like to hear their comments on it.

Oshawa, Ontario Craft Taller Than The 6 Story Building
Date: Mid July 1991
Time: N/A
Message: My sighting occurred in 1991, mid July , in Oshawa Ontario.
The craft first appeared as a bright white light in the dusk sky, similar to a star. It was approximately 30 to 40 miles away when I first saw it. It took only about 15 to 20 seconds to pass over me, so it was travelling at a high rate of speed. Seeing it was such a long time ago, I can't give specific details but the craft itself was black, it had a flat bottom which was shaped like a frying pan. It had 4 large red LED type lights on the main structure that were spaced on even quadrants. The top was curved and came to a point where a white light sat. None of the lights emitted any beam but were luminance, as you would see on your clock radio. The craft flew at about 300 feet off the ground and made no sound. It was obvious it wasn't a plane or helicopter, because of it's sheer size and shape and that it didn't have a conventional engine. The entire ship was massive, it was taller than the 6 story building I was in when I saw it. After my experience I no longer doubt the existence of UFOs.

Lincoln, Nebraska An Opalescent Sphere
Date: July 4, 2001
Time: Daylight sighting
Message: I had a UFO sighting on July 4, 2001 over Lincoln, Nebraska while waiting for the fireworks to begin. It was still daylight and I was sitting on the roof of a parking garage with a friend (which isn't as odd as it may sound if you know the building's design). We both looked to the sky and, directly above us, was a pearl moving amongst the clouds. That's all I can say about it, really. It just looked like an opalescent sphere. It did not move like a plane. It was slower and its purpose seemed designated to its immediate area rather than any remote destination. Another friend spotted it as well and joined us, looking at it. The sighting only lasted a few minutes before it disappeared into the clouds,

UFO Filmed From An Aircraft (Video Footage)
Date: Early 2006 Location: Unknown Witnesses: Unknown.
Details: The witness who sent this tape did so on condition that he not be interviewed or contacted, or even questioned regarding the footage. For obvious reasons, I do not have the original camera tape. Nor do I know where or exactly when this was taken, although it was obviously taken from an aircraft. I will respect the privacy of the witness by asking no further questions. Hopefully our forthcoming forensic analysis will shed some light on this.

King's Park Western Australia Object Changing Direction Quickly
Date: January 2006
Witnesses: 7
Details: It's taken a long time for this video to find its way to us - it was filmed some months ago. A large family from overseas all witnessed this event. The witnesses report that there was a high-pitched noise moments after the object vanished. The camera, however, picked up no sound at all (although it began functioning normally a few minutes after the sighting.)

Sasquatch Prints Under The Groat Road Bridge, Edmonton River Valley
Date: May 7 & 28, 2006
Time: Daytime
Location: Edmonton River Valley (Alberta)
Hi Brian, It's been a while since I've had anything interesting to report, last thing I reported was back in February, "Between Bruderheim & Lamont, Alberta ball of white light lit up the sky" which was passed on from my friend's brother.
I recently read "Inside the mind of Brian Vike" and it reminded me that I ought to send you these pictures of Sasquatch handprint and footprints right here under the Groat Road bridge in the Edmonton River Valley. I also seem to have possible UFO photos also. But first thing first.
May 7th 2006 I got bored of reading about Sasquatch so for the fun of it I decided to head out into the River Valley and just go looking for animal prints. I wasn't looking for Sasquatch, just figured I'd spend the early morning looking for coyote & deer prints. I ventured up the river by bicycle using the multi-trails to the area behind Fort Edmonton Park and John Jansen nature centre. A big beaver scared the day lights out of me as at first I thought it was a coyote, but nope, was a beaver.
In the same area just for the fun of it I used the stick I had been walking with to knock on a big rock like Sasquatch supposedly knocks. Knocked 3 times, waited about a minute, nothing, so I turned around and was going to head back home until I heard a "whoop whoop whoop" sound coming from across the river. I was on the south side of the river and the sounds came from a very heavily dense forested area on the northern side. Now I thought maybe it was a loon? But
it really did sound more baboon. Anyways I convinced myself it was just a loon and kept walking and that's when I heard these blood curdling screams!
It sounded like a woman being attacked, real freaky and that really got my attention. I eventually made my way over to
the other side and didn't find much but some deer bones. The forest was way too thick for me to even try to venture through, plus I was by myself and didn't want to enter alone. So I headed back home and reported what I heard on West Coat Sasquatch Research message board. (http://grandcherokee.proboards26.com/)

Aylmer (Gatineau), Quebec Three Orange Lights
Date: June 2006 (not sure of the exact dates, but early June)
Time: Around 1000 p.m. -midnight
Location of Sighting: Parking lot of Dairy Queen and Depaneur Jean, across the street from the mall and Parker Park (beside Parker street).
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 4
Shape of objects: Orange circles, looked like fiery circles a bit.
Full Description of event/sighting: My friend and I were walking around Aylmer in June when we decided to bus to Hull for the night. We were walking towards Depaneur Jean when we both saw three orange lights travelling slowly across the sky, staying in the same shape the entire time. They made the shape of a slanted triangle, much like that and between the lights was the darkest black. I've ever seen. We asked a person walking by if he was seeing what we were looking at and he agreed that he saw it but it seemed as if he didn't think much of it and walked off. Still talking about it we decided to go into the Depaneur to get what we had come for. I will always remember what my friend had said before we went in. We realized that it moved very slow and by the time we would get outside, it would probably not be far from where we saw it. But I remember him saying "I bet you when we get back outside, it will be gone". We went in and out of the store quickly and when we got out, they were gone.
I'm not sure exactly the date but a week or so later I was with another friend in Parker Park, just hanging out when we notice, looking from the yellow slide, nearly centered in the park, another orange light in the sky and near the big church. It was moving slowly across the sky, then it stopped and stayed in the same place for a few seconds. It began moving slowly in a different directions, almost like it was hovering around slowly. Then it faded away until it was not visible any more. We stayed in the same place still searching the sky for a little while longer, but never saw it again. That was the last time I saw any of the orange lights in the sky.
We all knew what we had seen, but never decided to report it until this morning (August 4, 2006) when my sister told me that one of my good friends was going to be in the Aylmer papers for a story about orange lights seen in the sky last night. One of my friends has already contacted you (who was with me at Depaneur Jean) and I haven't spoken yet to my other friend (who was with me at Parker Park). If you do know where to find these areas, I remember we were standing near the middle of the parking lot, looking at the lights moving over Dairy Queen and the sports store to the left of it. And the yellow slide in Parker Park, that is still there, looking in the direction of the big church. I don't know what to think of all of this but I hope this can help you in some way.
Thank you to the witness for the report.

Innaloo, Western Australia Beam Of Light From Objects

Witnesses: Several witnesses.
Details: The witness who recorded this says that several people watched these lights, with limited interest, and he was the only person still watching (that he's aware of) when the beam of light emerged.

Seaham, Co Durham, UK 6 Lights Appeared In The Sky Above Us
Date: July 29, 2006
Time: 10.35 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 15
Number of objects: 9
Shape of objects: Bulbous
Full Description of event/sighting: As we were having a BBQ in our back garden with friends, 6 lights appeared in the sky above us. At first glance they looked like floating jelly fish with their bellies glowing bright orange. They flew past us at unbelievable speed. About 3-4mins later 3 more of these things shot past the house. There was no wind that day and these lights were travelling at least 70-100mph. With the international Air show being held about 6 miles away we presumed it was something to do with that but when other people reported seeing the phenomenon it seemed very strange. It has been the talking point of the town in the least few days and its very exciting.

Torrington, Connecticut Witness Observes A Black Rectangular Object
Date: July 30, 2006
Time: 4:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Western sky moving south to north.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Rectangle/dark or solid black.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was on my back porch after letting my dogs out into their pen. Our back porch faces due west. It was sunny with large puffy white clouds. I was watching crows flying back and forth from tree to tree and noticed a jet above which was heading west. Lower than the jet, but still very high I saw a black rectangular object pass from south to north at a slow rate of speed. At arms length it was about the size of a small staple. It was in front of the clouds. The object was moving in a straight pattern and at first I thought it was a far away crow that was just flying unusually high. I watched it move along for about 5 seconds or so, then saw it stop. It just completely stopped moving and stayed in the same place for a little longer. It then turned abruptly and moved in the same slow speed toward the north east. I ran immediately into the house to get my binoculars, but by the time I returned it had vanished either in the clouds or the tree-line blocked it out. This object is the same shape as one I had reported earlier to you. It appeared to be a dead black color with no projections anywhere. There were no lights or sounds except for the jet which moved further away as the object remained stopped in the sky.

Las Colinas/Irving Texas Strange Cloud In A Clear Sky
Date: August 3, 2006
Time: 12:47 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Rectangular cloud.
It was lunchtime, I was thinking about what I was going to buy at Kohl's with my $60 gift card, my mind wandering between thoughts of dishes and clothes to shoes and jewelry, when my eyes happened upon a small, rectangular cloud, low and close to the horizon. This cloud was smog-colored, perhaps a shade darker than the cloudless smoggy sky that stretched across the horizon in front of me. Cars and trucks drove back and forth beneath and in front of this cloud, the size of them about the same as a pencil eraser held at arm's length. For a moment I didn't think much of anything other than, "hunh, that cloud is sure moving fast" and then I realized there were no other clouds in the sky at all, much less along the horizon... and then I realized how large this cloud was must be in relation to the eraser-sized cars and trucks in the foreground (considering I could tell that it was much further away than the cars and trucks I saw passing 'beneath' it)... and how fast it was going (in an easterly direction). "Moving as fast as an airplane" I thought, and yet it did not change shape or size at all, until about three or four seconds passed and it faded from view... as if it went invisible. At this point I pulled my sunglasses off and squinted into the distance trying to see it again and I said aloud "What was that?" Bemused, I drove off as the light changed and didn't think much more about it.
I told my husband about it later in the day and he really had no explanation except it could have been a mirage or something heat related. I simply said it was something I could not explain and left it at that.
