Miami Beach, Florida A Blue Luminescent Pinwheel UFO
Date: August 1969
Time: Around 10:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Miami Beach, Florida.
Number of witnesses: 500+
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: A pinwheel at times, a giant green blue dome later.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was 14, out with friends, walking our
dogs around the block. We heard a noise,
the dogs barked and then went silent, we looked up to see a giant greenish
blue luminescent pinwheel turning in the sky.
After all these years, I have not been able to forget it and I often wonder
what it was and why, after so many people saw
it is it never mentioned or explained.

UFO Sighting Over North Vancouver, British Columbia
Date: Around 1994 ?
Time: Early morning.
She was living in North Vancouver at the time and she got out of bed to get
some milk and peanut butter cookies.
She looked out the window and in her front lawn was a silver ball with weird,
extremely thin poles coming out of it everywhere and a really
long pole coming from the top of it shooting into the sky. She said she stood
there for several minutes just staring at it, then she ran to
this window in the ceiling to see if she could see what the pole was connected
to, unfortunately she couldn't. So she woke up my cousins and
ran back to the front window, but the sphere was gone and left no trace on her
front lawn. She said this happened about 14 years ago in the
summertime and early in the morning. I asked about the weather and she said it
was just a normal day in North Vancouver. She never told anyone
outside of family and close friends because she was scared they would put her
in some institution. She also says (which kind of makes me feel funny)
that she got the strange feeling they were being scanned or 'probed' as she
put it. Now I'm extremely interested in aliens and UFO's.
Now I think would just like to say my opinion of UFOs. I think that the
saucers are the ones being manually controlled and are rarely
reported because of this. So the other shapes like triangles and spheres are
remote controlled or something. That's just what I think.
Oh and my great aunt saw a sphere over my home town Mackenzie, she said it was
there for like a second the shot away really fast over the town.

Palm Springs California A Bright And Glowing White Object
Date: Mid 1990s
Time: N/A.
Back in the mid 90s there was a glowing object over the tramway mountain
range. From hwy 111 down town palm springs it looked like a
football field all lit up. It was bright and glowing white and left a glowing
trail behind it. I have never before or since seen anything like it.
Alot of other people saw it too. We all stopped our cars and got out in total
awe of the sight. Of course the next day the news reported it was
a mis-guided missile from Edwards Air Base. Whatever the case, it was very
strange.

London, Ontario A Green Light Lights Up The Entire Area
Date: July 1997
Time: 1:30 a.m.
Location of Sighting: London, Ontario.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Unknown.
Full Description of event/sighting: We (Myself, my Sister and her boyfriend)
were driving home to London, Ontario from Stratford Ontario.
We were taking back roads to London, when all of a sudden all around the car
and for what seemed to be endless, a green light lit up the
sky and the fields, what was night became a green day for approximately 20
seconds and then it was dark again. We never actually saw a UFO,
just unexplained 20 seconds of Green Light that lit up the sky. My sister who
was a non believer in UFO's now believes because of this incident.
----------
Lake Nipissing, Ontario A Cigar Shaped UFO
Date: July or August 2005
Time: Early afternoon.
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Cigar-shaped.
Weather Conditions: Clear blue skies with little clouds.
Description: My brother and two friends of ours were out boating on Lake
Nipissing for a day of fishing. We took a long route to what is known
by most people (and often visited by Americans) as the Eagles Nest. It's a
large Eagle's nest on top of a hydro pole or something which an
eagle nests year after year. It attracts people from all over. You can
actually see the baby eagles heads poking out of the top of the nest.
On this particular day we stopped by the nest to check it out. The Eagle was
flying circles around its nest and we could clearly see the babies
crying for food. As we watched this awesome bird flying in tight circles just
above it's nest, I was astonished to see a white-as-the-clouds
long cigar-shaped "thing" directly in the center of the circle the Eagle was
flying. I could not believe my eyes, as I shouted to my brother
and friends and pointed beyond the eagle.
Initially they did not know what I was making a fuss about. They sneered and
said something to the effect of 'ya, we see the eagle',
to which I exclaimed "no! Look beyond the eagle, and sure as heck they all
saw this thing making a slow climb at approximately a 30 degree pitch.
We had been slowly drifting inland and the tree tops were beginning to
interfere with our view, so I started the boat motor and went back about
25 yards or so to get a clear view.
The object seemed to just creep closer and closer to the clouds (almost as if
not to draw any attention to itself).
We followed this thing the best we could until it finally reached the clouds
and blended right in.
I have never seen anything like this. especially in the middle of the
afternoon. I could see it so clearly.
White as the clouds. This was not a plane or a blimp. I considered the
possibility of it being a blimp and I just have never
seen a long narrow blimp like this and so white. It could not have been
farther than a mile and I have never seen blimps around
the Sudbury area before and certainly not in the middle of nowhere on lake
Nipissing.
I have seen many pictures and videos of "UFOs" that look exactly what I saw
that day.
Before this experience I would have dismissed them as cheap fakes, but I have
seen it with my own eyes.

New Market, Ontario UFO Had Pure White Light
Date: July 3, 2008
Time: Around 9:30 - 10:00 p.m.
Sometime around July 3rd 2008, I was just starting to head out on my ride. I
was only about 100 feet from my house,
and looked up at the stars as I always do. I was heading west and looked at
the big dipper when I saw what I thought at first was Venus.
A very bright light, at least the same magnitude of brightness as Venus, and
equal in size to the naked eye.
I immediately thought it was odd as I've never seen Venus in proximity to the
big dipper (looking west).
I verified that it wasn't Venus as I looked south and there was Venus where it
should be.
I looked back at the object and it was then that I realized that it was
moving. Very fast towards me.
I immediately turned my bicycle around and called inside to my fiancé to come
and look at this thing.
She came outside and saw it too. It moved west to east. It was a pure white
light, much brighter than an aircraft light and making no sound at all.
I asked my fiancé to run and get the camera, and before she could return the
object faded out. It took only about 60 seconds to completely
cross the sky and fade into the distance. I did notice that just as it began
to fade, which took about a second, it made a small change in course,
turning south about 10 degrees.
There were no blinking lights, no other light other than a single white
circular light. I know it was not an aircraft,
as besides the fact that it had no running signal lights, the brightness of
the light remained constant the entire time I saw it
and was at least 5x brighter than an aircraft light. It passed directly over
our heads and was almost as if the light was radiating in all directions.
If it were an aircraft the light would have changed at least in brightness as
it passed overhead and continued away from us.
I have seen many satellites, and I can assure you that it was not a satellite.
It was as bright as Venus and equal in size, not your typical pin point
light that a satellite is. Additionally it had no "tail" as a meteor would
have during entry into our atmosphere.
----------
Conestogo Lake-North of Guelph, Ontario Bright Light Sighting
Date: July 20, 2008
Time: Around 10:00 - 11:00 p.m.
We were camping at Conestogo Lake Conservation area. Like any other camping
night, myself and fiancé were sitting at the fire,
looking at the stars and talking.
Sometime around 10:00-11:00 p.m., we saw the same bright light again. This
time the light was moving north to south. Venus again was
located in the southern sky and could be seen at the same time as the object.
It behaved in the exact same manner as our first sighting.
It may have been moving a little faster this time as it seemed to fade into
the southern distance in about 45 seconds or so.
I did have a camera this time, as we were camping, so I grabbed it and tried
to video tape it. I have a Digital Camera 10X Optical Zoom
that records Video. I put it on video as I figured a still picture would look
like I was taking a picture of stars, which this is not.
Anyways, I did shoot about 15 seconds of video, but it only appears black and
you can only hear my frustrating comments on the uselessness of the camera.
I'm going to start carrying my Video Camera with Night shot, So I can get a
video of this thing.
As before, the object moved silently and faded into the distance after about
45 seconds.

Peru, Indiana UFO Changes Shape Many Times (Close Encounter)
Date: July 30, 2008
Time: 9:30 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Peru, IN.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Numerous.
Full Description of event/sighting: I reported our first two sightings back in
January. Since then we have had several other encounters but this
one is the most extreme so I wanted to share it with you. On July 30, 2008,
my daughter in law (Jessica) and myself were going to the truck stop
on Highway 31 in Peru, IN. As soon as we left the house we saw what appeared
to be a plane but brighter above Eel River Road.
As we started to turn right onto 600, off of Eel River Road, we noticed the
light was not moving. Jessica was driving and I was in the back seat
with my grandson. She slowed the vehicle down in order to get a better look
at the object that was just above tree-line.
The object then came closer to our vehicle (around 700 feet from us).
Jessica stopped the vehicle and as she did the object also stopped.
We were very excited and decided to go back home to get my son so that he
could video tape it. As we turned the vehicle around and started back
on Eel River Rd., the object changed from a bright light to a triangular
shaped object with two moving things attached to the back.
These things looked like the part on the back of an oil rig and moved in
similar fashion. As we drove toward our home the object moved off with us
and stayed just above tree-line but followed us back to our house. As we
turned onto our road the object sped up faster than I have ever seen any
plane go (there was no noise or other planes around during this) and
disappeared behind my neighbor's home. We ran in and told my son and his
friend
about what we witnessed. They got the video camera and went outside. My
grandson was teething and needed Tylenol so Jessica and I got back into the
vehicle and once again headed to the truck stop. We decided to go down Eel
River Rd and turn towards 31 on Mexico Rd. As we approached 31,
we again saw the same object hovering on our left right beside 31. I told
Jessica to flash the vehicle lights.
As she did, the object appeared to responded and moved slightly as if to say
(oh, there they are!) Neither Jessica or I remember going across
the first two lanes of 31 but the next thing we knew we were in the
intersection and there were cars coming at us from all directions.
We were almost hit in the front and in the back of our vehicle. We turned
left on 31 and continued to the truck stop. The object was still hovering
in the field beside 31 and as we proceeded in 31 it continued to stay with us.
If Jessica slowed the vehicle the object got brighter and also slowed down.
During the time it was following beside us, it changed shapes many times. At
one point it became an oval shaped object and moved up in the sky a bit and we
were able to see under it. Directly in the center, underneath the object, it
was very bright and looked like electrical currents or small lighting bolts.
The object stayed with us until we got to the traffic light to turn left at
the truck stop. As we stopped at the light, the object slowed down and moved
in front of us about 700 or 800 feet away and then another light appeared next
to it. When our light turned green and we turned into the truck stop
both objects disappeared. During the sighting we were not afraid. We felt as
though whatever this thing was, it was trying to communicate with us in
some way. We also felt confused and disoriented even on the trip home.

Cambridge, UK A Series Of 20 Or So Pinky Orange Lights
Date: August 3, 2008
Time: 23:30-24:00
Number of witnesses: Two
Number of objects: Approx: 20
Shape of objects: Shape not determinable as only large pink points of light
visible.
Weather Conditions: Clear. Stars visible. Occasional wisps of high altitude
cloud.
Description: A series of 20 or so pinky-orange lights (points of light) that
flew west to east, one after the after, along a path that was to the south
of our viewpoint in Cambridge. One had the sense that their flight path was
slightly curved, coming in from the west or north-west but curving to their
right to disappear slightly south of southeast.
Each light followed approximately 20-30 seconds behind the other. But this
varied. IE they were not following exactly the same distance apart
and time wise there was enough of a gap in the middle that one could say their
were effectively two groups of them. The last we saw appeared to be a
straggler a couple of minutes behind the main two 'groups'. One -
approximately in the middle = appeared to turn slightly to its right (our
south)
before disappearing.
Each took up to 40 seconds or so to cross our angle of vision (which was
truncated to our right by Cambridge rooftops).
Their speed and the 'size' of the light points suggested they were quite low,
perhaps 3,000-5,000.
----------
Harlow, Essex UK Round Orange Points Of Light
Date: August 23, 2008
Time: 9:05 p.m.
Number of witnesses: Many
Number of objects: 6 +
Shape of objects: Round, points of light.
Full Description of event/sighting: I am a taxi driver in Harlow. On exiting
the garage there where several people standing in the way and
staring skyward. Looking towards their line of sight I witnessed a series of
orange lights traversing the sky and heading in a North Easterly direction.
This was also witnessed by my two female passengers
They were traveling in a slightly staggered linear formation approx 1000m
apart. They appeared to be quite low in the sky, approx 2 to 4000 feet
and speed similar to that of a light aircraft, about 100 - 150 knots. (I held
a private pilots license in 1990) These were not conventional aircraft
(no navigation lights) I have a pair of low powered binoculars and tried to
focus on one of these "lights", I could not get sharp focus but I got the
impression of a flame effect emitting from the rear (opposite to direction of
travel) of one of these "lights" Quite simply.

Houston, Texas Fast Moving Round And Luminous Object
Date: August 24, 2008
Time: 9:20 p.m.
Message: I want to report a sighting in Houston, Texas at 9:20pm today. There
was 1 object. The shape was round and luminous moving South,
Southwesterly. It seemed craft was approximately 500 yards high travelling at
a fast speed with no sound. Then stopped and changed towards a
different direction behind the clouds. I live just 5 miles from NASA.
----------
West Of Guelph, Ontario A Sphere With Symetrical Pattern
Date: August 25, 2008
Time: 10:45 p.m.
Location of Sighting: west of Guelph.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Sphere.
Full Description of event/sighting: I had it zoomed into 800 times
magnification.Wow. Absolutely incredible. It was a manufactured sphere
with symetrical pattern of what looked like craters but were not. The entire
sphere looked alive with a glowing energy. This all happened in
30 to 45 seconds. Realizing that I had not hit record yet, dam I looked away
to find the button on my new camera, but the sphere was gone.
This was my first sighting and the most incredible thing I have ever seen. How
I wish I had the film for the world to see, because I would have
posted it right away and changed the doubters minds forever. Still very upset
about that.
----------
Newmarket, Ontario Light Seen For A Short Period Of Time
Date: August 25, 2008
Time: Evening.
Again out for my bike ride. I now pay far greater attention to the skies after
seeing this weird light twice now. My entire ride was very uneventful,
nothing unusual. As I approached my house, I again notice the strange bright
light. This time it did do something different.
As I was headed east, and I noticed the light to the north-east heading south,
and close to the horizon, only about 30 degrees above the horizon.
The previous 2 sightings of this object, the object was moving towards us and
almost directly overhead.
This time it behaved very different. Previously it had traversed the entire
sky and faded into the distance, both times taking about a minute or so.
This time I only managed to see it for about 10 seconds. It was traveling
south, almost across my line of sight. As I slowed down to get a good look
at it, it was only about 40 degrees above the horizon (less than half way
across the sky) when it simply disappeared. I stopped and tried to see if
any trace of it could be seen. There was no moon so it was very dark, I could
not make out any object against the stars in the location it was in,
or in the path that it was headed. It was as if the light was simply shut
off, and nothing could be seen afterwards.
I am by no stretch of the imagination a nut case. I am a computer programmer
by trade and I am very logical.
I have no idea how big, how high, or how fast it was traveling. I can tell you
this though, if it was as high as a Jumbo Jet (35,000-40,000 feet) then
it was travelling at least 15 times faster than a jet and about 30X as big.
If it was in orbit, 2,000+ Kilometers, its size would be at least 200x the
size of an average visible satellite, and moving at least as fast. If it was
lower than either of these, say 5,000 to 10,000 feet, then it would be a much
smaller object (about 50 -100 feet) and moving 5x as fast as a small airplane,
but dead silent.
I do not know what I have been seeing, but I have never seen anything like it!
I have seen planes, helicopters with search lights, comets, meteors,
falling stars, and satellites. This was absolutely none of those.

Ottawa, Ontario Object With A Shiny Metallic Surface
Date: August 28, 2008
Time: Approx: 3:00 p.m.
Today (August 28, 2008, about 3:30 PM, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada), I saw
something in the sky that I never have seen before in my life. But I
suppose it might have some natural explanation. I was just standing outside of
the front of my house waiting for the garbage truck to come by.
I was facing East, looking at a clear blue stretch of sky. Suddenly out of
nowhere, I saw what appeared to be the glittering reflection of the sun
(the sun being at about 45 degrees above the Western horizon, shining from
behind me over my right shoulder) bouncing off of something like a shiny
metallic surface. But that was all there was to be seen.
There was no object to go with it. I will speak of the object, that is, where
one would have expected it to be (and it seemed like there could be up
to three objects in formation flight). I watched until the glittering
disappeared, which went some good distance across the sky. The glittering got
smaller as the distance got farther away. The object was travelling at high
speed, low altitude, with no sound whatsoever. It was travelling from North
to South, over the city. I have seen on the Internet where scientists have
developed an invisible suit. Could this have been an "indirect" sighting of an
invisible UFO?

Hinckley, UK Two Orange Glowing Lights
Date: August 28, 2008
Time: 9:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Hinckley.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 4
Shape of objects: Roundish.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was at the pub with my boyfriend and his
Dad when suddenly we looked up at the sky and there were two orange glowing
lights which seemed to be following each other. they were not very far apart
and were moving just a bit slower than an airplane. then we noticed that two
more were a bit further behind the first two, same in shape and appearance. we
watched as they just seemed to fizzle out and disappear, this was the last
we saw. previously the weekend before me and my boyfriend saw exactly the same
thing but over Burbage and there was only one on its own.

Tynemouth Pier North, UK Light Was Distinctly Square Shaped
Date: August 30, 2008
Time: 4:05 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Tynemouth pier north.
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Bright square.
Full Description of event/sighting: Hi,
We were walking on Tynemouth north pier at 4:00pm today (Saturday) when a
square light appeared over South Shields, it was moving slowly west to east
and very bright; we took 2 pictures of it. The light was distinctly square
shaped with a darker vertical band down the middle. It was bright square
and moving fast, no noise. The 2 pictures we have were taken within 20 sec of
each other, just after the second picture the light square dimmed and then
disappeared. We don't know what this is but we definitely saw something. This
was weird as it appeared and disappeared from nowhere. Do you have any other
statement of this?
----------
Keighley, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom 12 Glowing Objects
Date: August 30, 2008
Time: 10:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Keighley, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom.
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 12
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: We were sat in our living room and looking
out through the window when we saw approximately 6 round, glowing objects
passing by. We went outside for a closer look and counted approximately 12 in
total traveling a little slower than an aircraft, There was no noise in the
sky. There was no pattern to their to formation. Some were grouped but some
were far apart. We called the local airport to see if they knew anything that
would explain what they were but they could be of no assistance. We obtained
photos of the objects and a neighbor took video footage.
