Condobolin NSW, Australia Police Officers Watch UFO Hovering
Date: 1994
Time: 10:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.
Weather Conditions: fine, clear night.
Description: I was driving from Condobolin to the town of Lake Cargelligo at
night, a distance of about 104km.
I was the driver of a police car (Highway Patrol) with my partner in the
passenger seat.
This stretch is notorious for Kangaroos and wild pigs on the road at night, so
I was driving under the speed limit of 100 kph.
After travelling for about 10kms from Condobolin I noticed a light to my right
apparently in a paddock.
What attracted me to it was the brightness, and the fact it was alternating
through all colors of the spectrum.
I pointed it out to my partner and we slowed and checked, certain it was a
farm house light.
It was then that we became aware that it was not in the paddock, but hovering
above it.
We stopped, killed the vehicle lights, and watched it for a few minutes
mystified.
We debated what it was, but could offer no rational explanation and I think we
convinced ourselves that it 'must' be
a tractor in a paddock working the land and the lights must be resulting from
being filtered through dust.

Morganton, Georgia A Golden Yellow Triangular UFO
Date: December 20, 2005
Time: 2:20 a.m.
This report is of a sighting on December 20, 2005. At 2:20a.m. I woke up. As I
usually do, I looked out of the window adjacent to my bed. In the eastern sky
at about 60 degrees above the horizon was a golden yellow triangle. It was at
jet altitude, cruising nearly along side of the jet airway, but a bit east of
it. I believe it was about the size, overall of a 727. It was an equilateral
triangle, with rounded points. It was lit from within, with a beautiful
golden-yellow lighting. In its centre, was a soft and diffuse, circular,
glowing red, "lighted" area about one sixth of the size along the length of
one of the triangle sides. Also, there were a few grey bars of colour on its
underside. They were random in their positions and were longer than the red
light's diameter.
This triangle was travelling at somewhat less than jet speed and my estimate
of altitude was above twenty thousand feet, but probably below thirty
thousand. Visibility was excellent so I had a clear view of it. Now here is
where things get a bit bizarre. Along the trailing edge of the triangle and at
about one-fifth of the length of the trailing edge of the triangle, from the
left side was a pipe-like tube extending behind the craft for an estimated
twenty feet. At that point the pipe/tube became a cork-screw of three twists
to the right. It resembled a pig tail! Not very aerodynamic I'd say! I can't
imagine what it could have been used for, but who can understand some of the
configurations we see on some of these craft eh? I watched it cruise smoothly
on a straight course until out of sight and I won't forget this one. It took
quite awhile to get back to sleep.

Castleton, Derbyshire, England A Bright Orange Ball
Date: February 22, 2008
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of object: Ball.
7:00 p.m. on a dark windy evening on Friday 22 Feb 2008. Just coming out of a
holiday cottage in Castleton, Derbyshire.
Glanced to the right and saw a bright orange ball with sparks coming out of
the back shooting across the hill to the right of the cottage.
It was travelling very fast and was just above tree level. At first I thought
it was a meteorite, but couldn't find any news about it anywhere.
Apparently old folklore about the area mentions the Fiery Drake which is seen
sometimes in underground caverns in the area.
Just wonder if I saw it above ground?

Above The Willows Estate Grimsby, U.K. UFO Shoots Upwards
Date: April 23, 2008
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Indistinct due to dark.
Weather Conditions: Clear sky.
Description: No sound, looked like a star which got brighter as it came
closer, then very slowly moved over the houses for a while. Very strange
lights but eerily silent. After quite a while it shot up into the sky at a
startlingly fast speed but still silent.
----------
Clifton, Bristol U.K. Five Orange Glowing Objects
Date: May 30, 2008
Time: 11.10 - 11.15 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 5
Shape of objects: Hard to say.
Weather Conditions: Clear and calm (night).
Description: Orange glowing objects some slow movement, no sound. In the sky
to the west from our flat window, fairly low level, we saw one at first then
it was joined by another, then a 3rd, seems to come up from below, then level
out, but with gentle movement, fading out after a few minutes. About two mins
later, another one then more until there were five in fairly close proximity.
Definitely not helicopter or plane as a police helicopter came over during -
completely different. Viewed through binoculars but not much help. Camera out
of batteries (!) so did take a couple of photos from my phone. Admittedly,
they do seem similar to a lot of the sightings reported on this site and
feasible explanation would be the UFO balloons.

Downend Bristol, U.K. Two Bright Objects
Date: May 31, 2008
Time: 10:20 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round.
Weather Conditions: Clear.
Description: My wife and I were sitting at the top of the garden on a clear
May night when two bright objects flew directly over our house in Downend. One
was yellow and the other was an orange colour. When we first saw them they
were what looked to be flying side by side, but as they passed over the yellow
object seemed to revolve under the other and there was no noise, just like a
low humming noise.
----------
Thunder Bay, Ontario A Bright White Light
Date: May 31, 2008
Time: 11:30 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Bright White Light.
Weather Conditions: Clear
Description: My daughter and I were outside on the back deck, and we live in
the city. We both observed a bright white light moving from west to east in a
jerky motion. It was not a plane (no sound and no flashing lights), it was
also moving faster than any plane I have ever observed. I have observed
satellites outside the city limits and they do not move in that motion or at
that speed and I have never seen a satellite in city limits because it is so
bright. The light was brighter than anything I've seen in the night sky in the
city. Then it just disappeared quickly.
----------
Normandy, Surrey England 20 Plus UFOs
Date: May 31, 2008
Time: 10:45 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 20 plus.
Shape of objects: Orb.
Weather Conditions: good conditions, little bit of cloud in the sky.
Description: I was driving to Guildford to pick up my brother from Guildford.
Pretty much as soon as I turned out of my driveway I could see loads of orange
orb like lights in the sky in front of me. I pulled over so I could get a
better look. There were at least 20 of them and they were moving slowly in a
long straight line. As they moved across the sky one by one they started to
disappear into nothing at basically the same spot. Pretty much as soon as I
pulled
over I phoned my mum and told her to come outside quickly and have a look, she
did and she was absolutely gob smacked as well. We tried to come up with some
logical explanations but none of them added up to what we saw. I just want to
know if there is an explanation to what we saw or if there is a possibility
that this sighting was a UFO.

Saltdean, Brighton, England Two Orange Lights Coming From The Sea
Date: May 31, 2008
Time: 8:40 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Indeterminable - orange lights.
Weather Conditions: Overcast.
Description: We saw two orange lights in sky approximately 1000 feet up and
about 500 feet apart. They were not level (one higher than the other. They
seemed to be coming from the sea towards the land and very slowly. Not
flashing lights. Then they just disappeared after watching them for a few
minutes.
----------
Hull, East Yorkshire Two White Lights
Date: May 31, 2008
Time: 10:23 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Two white lights
Weather Conditions: Fine but cloudy.
Description: It was two lights flying on top of each other but a slight
distance from each other. They kept perfect distance from each other and
didn't waver. Also there was no sound whatsoever making it very eerie indeed.
----------
Münsingen, Nearby Berne, Switzerland Two Orange Lights Rising Over Horizon
Date: June 1, 2008
Time: 00:25
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Orange lights, round, star-like.
Weather Conditions: Clear sky.
Description: Two orange lights rising over the horizon at a certain distance.
First light about 40 deg above the horizon, second lower (further behind?).
Both rose slowly and got closer (estimated fly direction N-NW coming from
direction Jüngfrau-Joch) for about 1 min. then the first object accelerated in
direction E to achieve an incredible speed, dimming and disappearing. The
second object did the same about half a min. later. The direction was the
same. Objects were accelerating and rising like to get orbital speed.
Please note - random (or not) circumstances: at exactly the same time space
shuttle lift-off took place.
From flight pattern (formation flight, two ships) and circumstances I'd bet on
a military "black" platform started around the Mediterranean sea.
----------
Balwyn Melbourne Victoria, Australia Lights In A Ring Formation
Date: June 2, 2008
Time: 8:45 p.m. to 9:30.p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Hard to tell, but seemed large and flat.
Weather Conditions: Partly cloudy.
Description: I looked out the window of my flat in Balwyn and noticed red and
green flashing lights quite far into the distance, just sitting in the one
spot. I think the lights were in a ring shape, but can't be certain as it was
fairly far away. The green and red lights were clear though, as it was around
9:00 p.m..
My flatmate and I both thought it was too big to be a helicopter and it wasn't
moving enough for it to be a plane.

Silver Lake, Illinois Missing Time ?
Date: June 4, 2008
Time: 8:40 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Silver Lake Il.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was Travelling on I-70 close to Silver
Lake IL. I was going about 65 MPH with a street light in front of me about 1/8
mile. I blinked my eyes and when my eyes opened the street light was about 1/4
mile to my rear. My GPS shows I was going 431 MPH. I pulled into the Silver
Lake rest stop and took pictures of my GPS. I can email you a copy of my GPS
picture if you want it. I will need an email address to mail it to. The best I
can come up with is I was gone for a few seconds and was put back down in the
place I would have been. The GPS is working perfect before and after this.

Houston, Texas Hundreds Of UFOs/Lights Witnessed In The Sky
Date: June 4, 2008
Time: 9:00 - 10:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Houston, Texas.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 100's
Shape of objects: Bright lights, like stars.
Full Description of event/sighting: Took my son to go run around the Cy-fair
High School track to do some time trials as he had a triathlon event for the
weekend. As he was running the track warming up. I laid down on the track to
do sit-ups. (sounds corny, but that's what transpired). While looking up at
the sky I noticed a handful of lights, like stars, moving across the sky
uniformly. Same speed, same direction. Thought they were planes and that I
was just seeing several travelling in a path from the Bush Intercontinental
Airport. As I continued to do sit-ups I noticed that the lights just continued
on for a few minutes and thought it was odd that so many planes would travel
so closely for so long. Then, I started looking over the sky to my right and
to my left and noticed that these moving lights were covering the sky as far
as I could see in all directions. I would say at any given time there were at
least 50 of these moving lights in my view in the sky. I followed a few lights
and judged that they stayed in view a few minutes at a time. If you consider
that I could see 40-50 lights at a time in the sky and they took an average of
a few minutes to travel in and out of my view, and I saw this go on for at
least 45 minutes, that means there was 100's of these lights! My son saw them
too.

Downtown Columbia, South Carolina A Very Low Bright Flying UFO
Date: June 6, 2008
Time: 10:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Downtown Columbia, SC.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: I have seen a couple of stories that match
mine on the site. I went out and caught the bright star then realized it was
moving. The light was white, no blinking lights like a plane. It moved at a
steady and fairly slow speed across the sky to my north from downtown then I
realized it had changed direction and was headed right over my home. It was
difficult to tell the height of this thing, I'd originally said no more than
100 feet over some tall pine trees. But when it got closer to my house, and it
was within a few blocks, it vanished. I had binoculars out to stargaze and I
looked and saw it, moved the binocs back to my eyes, put the binocs back up
and voila, gone.
It looked "satellite" until it looked so close to the ground. This thing was
bright. No way to miss it. And it too was absolutely silent, noiseless. Also
in the western sky over Columbia last night was something I have seen a few
other times as well. It too looks like a star, but way away. It is a bright
star like object, but it has blinking red and green lights that appear to
blink in both colours on both sides or maybe this thing could be "spinning". I
don't know. I have seen it in different areas of the sky over the past two
years around here. At any rate, it stays right there, put, doesn't move for
hours and hours, perhaps all night but is in a different spot the next night
or is totally missing from the sky. In Columbia, numerous military air
operations do go on. We see all kinds of things in the sky if we look. I've
even seen them flying Ospreys here. You can't miss that, the loudest thing I
ever heard.

El Vado, New Mexico - Satellites Or UFOs
Date: June 7 & 8, 2008
Time: 10:00 - 11:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: El Vado, New Mexico.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 34
Shape of objects: White-objects.
Full Description of event/sighting:
We were at El Vado, NM this past weekend (25 miles south of Dulce NM) were
outside from 10:00 till 11:00pm. We were watching the black sky looking for
ETs and satellites. We saw alot of white objects which looked like satellites
travelling south to north and north to south and a few west to east. About 4
flew by in a rapid speed. From the time spent outside we figured that we saw
one every three minutes. Several instances there were two or three not flying
together but sharing air space. I looked at You tube and typed in NASA UFOs. I
see the footage they have is very similar to what I saw. White objects flying.
Could this many objects be satellites. On Friday we saw 14 within 45 minutes
and on Saturday we saw 18 within the hour. Of course we did not look too well
because we spent alot of time talking about what we were seeing. These were
not falling stars.
We saw falling stars and they did not resemble what we saw flying up above us.
I have already had people laugh at me because they all said there are
thousands of satellites in the sky. I took video but nothing came out since it
was too dark and objects too far away. I think I need a camera with night
vision. I don't know if this help. Please advise. Please respond to this
email. I would hate to be wasting my time looking at the sky if these are
just satellites. Just to let you know I have encountered 5 instances here in
Albuquerque in May 08. I also have a photo to send you that I captured In
Albuquerque NM in April. It is a round silver craft with an aura around it.
I have a client who was x-rayed for what she though was an injury on her wrist
in February. She is a physical therapist. Her doctor examined her x-ray and
asked her how she managed to get a piece of steel inside her wrist without a
point of entry in her skin. My client told her doctor that she does not know
how it happened. There is no point of entry or scarring. She is too scared to
do anything about it and does not know who to turn to. She told me that she
does see UFO craft flying in her area. In February she said she was driving
home at 10-10:30pm from Socorro NM. She was the only one on the highway in
that area at that time and a UFO craft was zig zagging around her car as if it
were playing games with her. She told me that she does not want to tell anyone
because they will think she is crazy and she does not want to jeopardize her
reputation with her career or business associates. She asked me to help her
but I can't even help myself. I don't know the answers. I am also a business
of a manufacturing company and I don't need to be laughed at.
Please help with some answers.

Maple Ridge, British Columbia A Large Black UFO With Black Ball Attached
(Map/Video Footage)
Date: June 8, 2008
Time: 9:30 p.m.
Location of Sighting: From balcony back of house - Object seemed to be over
Derby Reach park across Fraser River.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Looked like a black inflatable raft of 50 feet with a round
black ball about 10 ft diameter tethered to one end. Object was flying eastern
direction just above treetops at low speed.
Full Description of event/sighting: Was out on my balcony for a smoke. House
is on the side of a hill and the balcony is overlooking the area including
views across the Fraser River. Some scattered clouds but generally clear
skies. Was just after sunset.
I spotted a large black object resembling a black inflatable raft of about 50
ft length with a black ball about 10 ft diameter tethered to one end that was
moving slowly in eastern direction. The object was floating just above
tree-tops over the Derby Reach Park area across from the Fraser River.
The object seemed to perform a half turn maneuver rotating on itself left to
right before hovering for 30 seconds then start ascending at a relatively slow
pace until it reached cloud heights. The tethered ball part wasn't visible
anymore after it's rotation.
I ran inside once the object started ascending and grabbed my wife's cell
phone and shot 2 video sequences of the object - unfortunately the resolution
of the video is so low that we cannot make out the object.
There were no lights and no noise from the object at any time throughout the
sighting.
I lost track of the object after it went through a high cloud.
There are many condominiums on hillsides on the Haney side of the river,
facing Derby Reach Park - hopefully somebody else will have seen something as
from the altitude of the object when initially spotted - it would have been
directly in the line of vision of people in those condos. Thanks.
I can send a map showing approximate location of the sighting for reference
purposes. I am at the house on 228th St.. I can send the 2 videos captured
with the cell phone if you want - just provide me e-mail address where I can
send.

Mississauga, Ontario Bright UFOs Rise Up Into Space
Date: June 8, 2008
Time: 11:15 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Mississauga, ON.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round shaped bright lights.
Full Description of event/sighting: June 8, 2008 at 11:15pm or so. My brother
and I were sitting outside on the patio just talking and we were looking up at
the night sky. Both of us saw two very bright lights, both the same size,
flying together, too close to be planes, but too high up to make out what they
looked like. They did not have airplane lights. All we saw were two very
bright moving objects (lights) that met up with a third (light) object that
might have been a star and as soon as they met the third object, the two
bright objects began to rise so fast that we watched them disappear into space
until there were no lights left. It's almost like they hovered for a second
and then took off straight up in super speed and disappeared from the
atmosphere. The other third object remained, but my brother said it was moving
slowly, I couldn't tell.
We realized that we had just witnessed a UFO, whether it be military or an ET,
I dunno, but I think it was military probably.

UBC - Marine Drive Vancouver, British Columbia A Green Ball (UFO)
Date: June 10, 2008
Time: 12:20 a.m.
Location of Sighting: UBC- Marine Drive, Vancouver, Canada
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Green ball.
Full Description of event/sighting: Three separate people saw a green round
object. It went up above the clouds disappeared and then came close to the
ground.
Additional Information:
Hi there, I will ask these folks to email you too. Ok. So the details are as
follows:
We were a group of 5 friends. One of us left and then called us and said he is
seeing a green light ball (circle) as UFO in the sky. Then, as we were walking
towards the Marine drive dormitory. I saw it and showed it to the other 3
friends. They all said it did not look like anything like plane, helicopter or
anything. It was a quit big green shiny circle (ball), and at times it would
have tails (when it went up above the clouds, we could see a tail). and then
it went high and high until it disappeared in the cloud, and then it came out
of clouds again and it was moving not very fast, neither slowly. Then, we
were too scared to continue watching it. So we went in and as soon as I got
upstairs I started googeling "UFO and UBC". I saw a similar description of
what I had seen reported in Feb of this year. So I was wondering is there some
kind of research going on in the sky or is it really a UFO?
