Two Bright Fireball Type Objects Over Cobourg Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 21, 2011

Time:  Approxamtlty 10:00 p.m.

At around 10:00 p.m. two bright fireball type subjects flew over Cobourg going south to north. We watched these things for about 5 minutes, they were definitely different. 

No doubt the strangest things I have ever seen, the crazy thing is I was with 7 other people who witnessed the same thing. 

Please reply when you hear from others on this same thing on May 21 2011.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Orange Fireball Object Over Westmount London Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  October 6, 2011

Time:  8:10 p.m.

I had just left work at 8:10 and was driving west on Southdale near the Sifton Park in Westmount. Same sighting as you, but I thought it was a small 5 seater plane as there looked to be that shape.

Probably took 5 seconds and it dove into the tree-line over Westmount. Joggers along Southdale did not seem to be too alarmed, so I figured it was a fireball. 

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Orange Colored Fireball Over Stave Lake Road In Mission British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  December 24, 2009

Time:  Approxamtlty 1:30 a.m.

Hi there, you asked if anyone else has seen the same kind of sighting as you so, I am sending you a quick email to tell you that I have, seen what I think is exactly like what you saw in as close of a proximity as would be relevant to your request for others to notify you.

Firstly I was online searching UFO's because I had the most amazing sighting over the Dewdney area last night, it was as up close of a sighting as I could have hoped for, but I won't go into details because it is late and I don't feel like trying to describe all that here and now.

The sighting as it relates to you, happened December 24, 2009 probably 1:30 in the morning, my wife and I we're coming down Stave Lake road in Mission and as we passed 7th Ave, and we noticed what could be best described as a fireball orange-ish in color and moving along low in the sky, above the river and it moved slowly just as you described we pulled over and must have watched it for 4 or 5 minutes until it was out of view, there is and was nothing I can find beyond UFO to explain this.

Thank you, good luck in your efforts to bring awareness on this topic.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Large Orange Fireball Over Fox Lake Illinois

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  June 4, 2011

Time:  Evening.

Hi, I just wanted to respond that I saw something last night, exactly the same as what you are describing on your web post. I was with 2 other people on my boat in Fox Lake, IL.  Out of nowhere a large orange fireball appeared, from what I can tell about 5000-6000 feet in the air. 

It was traveling northwest very slowly, at first we thought it was a meteor, until it stopped right in front of us.  It hovered for about 30 seconds right over the lake before changing directions and flying North East.  The ‘fire’ went out as it continued to travel northeast. 

About 1 minute later, it re-appeared way out in the distance, to me it looked like the Gurnee area. The whole thing lasted about 10 minutes, and the object was completely silent.  I am also a private pilot, and I fly over the Fox Lake area frequently, I have never seen anything like this and would love to know what it was. 

I took video of it from my camcorder, but it was so dark outside that it looks like a streetlight sitting there, no one would ever believe what we saw from my video, but we indeed saw it.  Very strange!

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Fireball Type Object Shoots Back Upward Over New Mexico

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  2010 and September 17, 2011

Time:  Evening.

Hi, I was writing to see if  there is any explanation to this? The posting on your website " Bright Light Shoots Off Over Carvel Alberta Canada" 2006. My friend and I had witnessed the same exact thing, exactly, except we live in New Mexico and it happened in 2010.

Again September 17, 2011 the same friend and his girlfriend and her son witnessed the exact same sighting. I know this sounds cheesy, but the fireball was the size of my pinky nail held out at arm length, "a very hot and angry looking fireball" like off the movie Men in Black.

It seemed to be coming right at me and at a extremely high velocity and shot up leaving a short trail behind and out of our orbit, extremely fast speeds. This seems to be a reoccurring thing, have you found or heard what this is?

Thank You for your time.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Fireball In The Sky Over Oxnard California

Date:  March 2011

Falling Fireball Over London Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  October 4, 2011

Time:  Approxamtlty 8:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.

I Googled "fireball London, Ontario" and found this article, very odd.

At about 8-9pm on October 4th, I was driving west on Highway 22 just west of wonderland, to the northwest, there was a falling fireball and it does sort of match the previous sighting, as I thought it was sort of like a barbell, or two spherical objects somehow connected.

I honestly can't recall if both objects were on fire, or only one. I think it was just one.  This was seen by probably 5 or 10 other motorists, as traffic slowed to a standstill.

It fell very slowly then disappeared.  I would have though it some sort of space junk falling to earth except there was no impact sound, and it fell so slowly. I couldn't tell how far away it was, so I have no idea how big it was. Just thought I would share. 

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Bright Orange Fireball With Tail Makes A Sharpe Turn Over Melbourne Australia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  2001

Time:  6:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2 (including me).

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Circular with a long tail.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: About 10 years ago, my mother arrived at my grandparents’ house to routinely pick me up after school. I was 16 at the time and it was late afternoon, just before dusk on what was an unusually clear and sunny spring day.

I was in the passenger seat of my mother’s car when she performed a U-turn on my grandparents' quiet street at which point, the front of the car was aligned perfectly to the north. I happened to glance up towards the top half of the windscreen, admiring the bluish-yellow hue of the sky.

As I shifted my glance to the east, I witnessed a bright orange fireball, which appeared to be flying at a fairly high altitude. It had a distinctly long, orange tail which emitted wispy clouds of very thin yet acrid looking black smoke. The object was traveling slowly along horizontal plane (from east to west).

The slow speed seemed unusual to me, but I initially dismissed it as a very bright meteorite travelling at extraordinary altitude. Suddenly, it began to change trajectory, slowly descending along the vertical. This occurred about 5-6 seconds after I had initially spotted it. At this point, I figured that it must have been a doomed aircraft which had suffered a catastrophic failure of some kind.

I exclaimed and pointed it out to my mother, who instantly slowed down to a stop, glanced up and also spotted it. The object then commenced an unbelievably tight loop, dramatically accelerating in the process. After completing this first loop, it subsequently performed another (just as tight as the last), still accelerating, yet traveling at an ungodly rate of speed.

No manned object could possibly withstand even a fraction of those G’s! Once it completed this last loop, it slingshot towards the east in an upward and traverse trajectory, gradually fading into the blue of the atmosphere. The whole incident felt like it  lasted an eternity, but in reality, the duration was no longer than 10-15 seconds.

Needless to say, I couldn’t believe what I had seen, so much so, that I after I had regained my prior composure, I asked my mother to describe her account of the incident. If she wasn’t there to concur, I probably would have dismissed it as imaginary. Prior to witnessing this event, I was an avid aircraft aficionado (in fact, I still am).

Since then, I have subsequently studied aerospace engineering, yet I’m still scratching my head on this one. By analyzing the scenario, I managed to derive some additional attributes of the object. Since it faded into the atmosphere, it must have been flying at the absolute fringe of space. Also, considering that it was clearly visible at that particular altitude and angle of elevation, it must have been huge.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Fireball/Meteor Object Flew Along The Coast At Grand Bend Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 29, 2010

Time:  Approxamtlty 8:40 p.m.

Hi, this is my first time reporting, but I seen a fireball object, fly along the coast of the beach in Grand Bend. This was seen by me and a few friends on August 29, 2010 at around 8:40 p.m. at night.

The object seemed to change direction after coming straight on to the beach, and then turned and went parallel with the beach front. Hope this helps, P.S.

Let me know if anyone else seen that.

Thank you to the person for their report.

An Explosion Lit Up The Sky With Massive Green Streak With Blue And Purple Over Minot North Dakota (Fireball/Meteor/Video Footage)

New Sighting Report !

UPDATE ! Solved !

I did a quick check at the American Meteor Society website to see if there was a Meteor sighting on that night as this certainly sounds like a Fireball/Meteor sighting. Sure enough, there is a listing for a Meteor for that date and time. Also there is 2 video clips from folks who also saw this and one photo to view.

So check the video footage out at the American Meteor Society's website at: https://fireball.amsmeteors.org/members/imo_view/event/2020/6829

Date:  November 18, 2020

Time:  Between 1:30 a.m. and 2:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Minot, North Dakota.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Couldn't tell due to bright light glare.

Hi there, I was searching online for anything that could resemble what I saw and I can’t find anything and came across this email. But anywho I was in Minot, ND on November 18, 2020, sitting in my truck In the back parking lot of hotel smoking a cigarette, with my seat leaned back looking at the night sky.

It was a quiet night, just dead for being a decent size city, but it was 1:00 a.m. in the morning, during this whole COVID crap so w/e but between 1:30 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. when I was sitting back looking up, it’s hard to explain, but it was like a sudden explosion that lit up the whole area and a massive green streak with blue and purple in it and it’s like you could feel the power of whatever it was. but I

It was only like 5 seconds and gone, but the only way I can explain it, is like in Star Trek when there ship would go into hyper speed and poof gone.

That’s what it was like and the noise to just like it, but the feeling was so powerful.

I was only there for the night, but I wanted to try and get someone to pull up cameras, but never did and I even emailed a reporter in the area.

It might be something worth checking out, but never got a response and I know there a air force base there, but this was no just no ya know.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Fireball Type Object Hovering Over Okanagan Lake British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  July 7, 2007

Time:  Approximately 1:30 a.m.

Hello, I just read an article in the Kelowna Capital News about some UFO sightings over Okanagan Lake last week.

Saturday night at about 1:30 a.m. (July 7) myself and two of my friends saw a similar “fireball” hovering over some trees that are visible from my back yard. This area is not directly over the lake but more towards Winfield.

It pulsed gently from yellow to red several times over about five minutes before fading out, flashing brightly once more and dropping straight down behind the tree line.

The only manmade object I might conceive it to be was a helicopter, but I’ve never seen a helicopter with lights this bright or this large. The pattern of light pulsations was irregular and not characteristic of an aircraft light or spotlight.

I’m wondering if anyone else reported a similar sighting last Saturday night. I haven’t been able to find a satisfactory explanation of what we saw. I wish I had a picture I could attach for you, but we could not get our camera ready before the object disappeared.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Round Flaming Green Ball Over Bowmanville Ontario (Fireball/Meteor)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  March 11, 2007

Time:  8:15 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Highway 401 Bowmanville area.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round flaming green ball.

Full Description of event/sighting: My son and I were traveling west on the 401 Highway just outside the Bowmanville area when we saw a flaming green ball with a sparking tail traveling southward.

It seemed to come from no where. It was much lower than you would see a meteor. To me it looked like it arced into lake Ontario.  

I believe it is probably the same object that the person who wrote about the Toronto Ontario fireball from March 11. The traffic too slowed down where I was.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Numerous Witnesses To UFO Or Spectacular Fireball Sayward British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

I have telephone interviews with pretty much everyone, but can’t locate them right now, so when I find the audios I will post them down the right hand sidebar of my blog here.

Date: July 29, 2002

Time: 10:50 p.m.

Witness #1 (out of 6 witnesses)

On October 3, 2002 I had a telephone call from a lady who resides in Sayward, British Columbia which is located on the north eastern shore of Vancouver Island. It has about 1500 inhabitants and is approximately two hours south of Port Hardy, one hour north of Campbell River and four hours north of the provincial capital, Victoria.

She had read an article which I had written and which had been published in the North Island Gazette (in a letter to the editor) where I had asked residents to report any strange lights they may have seen recently in the area and which I could investigate.

I had heard from a colleague who informed me that a number of witnesses had reported seeing a large fireball over Sayward, B.C. on the evening of July 29, 2002.

Below Image: Location map of Sayward, British Columbia.

The reason why I was so interested in hearing from these folks was due to the major sighting which took place here (Houston, Quick, Telkwa and Smithers, British Columbia) on the same evening where nine witnesses in four different communities watched an unforgettable event which seemed to be connected to the Sayward B.C sighting.

Below Drawing: Witness drew what it was they observed.

The lady went on to tell me that there was a total of six witnesses who she knew who had also observed the same thing. Her mother, aunt and three other women had witnessed this strange object, all within a kilometer from each other and to this day she can't figure out what it may have been.

Below Image: Witness #1 filled out a questionnaire for Ed Majden - EMO Fireball Network Station, Courtenay: http://victoria.rasc.ca/articles/2003/sandia_bolide.htm

When it was first observed she told me that she thought it was a meteor, but as it travelled along, she quickly changed her mind.

She said after the event was over she logged on to the internet to seek help in trying to find an answer which might give some clue as to what she had seen.

She found a Meteorologist in Courtney, B.C. and wrote him a letter explaining what it was she had seen and heard.

The gentleman told her that it was most likely a meteor, but she felt like she was getting the run around, and nothing basically came from her request for information.

She'd been told to provide the latitude and longitude of her sighting .. and of course she was unable to do that. It was not her expertise !

However he did ask if he could send out a short questionnaire for her and the other witnesses to complete.

She received the paperwork and forwarded it to the other ladies and they all filled it in. After the questionnaires were completed and collected, everyone's information was basically the same. Three of the witnesses drew pictures of their sighting.

Below Drawing: Witness drew what it was they observed.

Another trip to the internet (to my website) provided the witness with more accounts of the same sighting. A similar object had been seen further north (Bulkley Valley) on the same date, much to her surprise. She immediately contacted me by telephone to tell me of her experience and how she thought it may have been the same object.

The only difference in all the reports is that this witness did hear noises and went on to say the other three ladies also heard the same sounds.

She explained where she was standing, on her driveway and the object was "just there" in front of her "just" above the small mountain. I was told by this witness that it was the noise which had attracted her attention.

In her words she said the sound was like that of a "screecher" (fire cracker) which gave off a whistling noise. When she looked up, the first thing that was noted was a white tail.

She also said the object looked as if it was hovering, moving really slowly. It also had a white core center and black coloring around the outside edges. It was also described as being covered with fire, or an orange color all the way around it.

As this was taking place, she heard a scream from her neighbors property behind her. Her comments to herself after hearing the screaming from the neighbors was, "exactly"!, meaning she was glad someone else saw it.

After she lost sight of the object, a couple of minutes went by when her mother and aunty came driving up in their van.

The witness got into the van and did not want to mention what she had just seen, but because it was such an amazing event she said to her mother and aunty you wouldn't believe what I just saw. The two women just looked at her and said, "did you see what we've just seen"? She told them yes.

Brian Vike's, Note: I have talked to the two witnesses who were driving the van at the time and have their reports as well.

They will be written up separately. Some of the witnesses work for the Provincial Emergency Program, so all are very credible and thought, at the time, that they were going to have to respond to crashed aircraft.

I asked the woman if she could give me a rough idea how far off the ground the object might have been, she turned and asked her boyfriend, he said their property was sitting about 100 feet above sea level, and the witness said the object was approximately 100 feet off the ground traveling horizontally.

Her thoughts were that the object was going to go into the ocean. It seemed as if it had just crashed.

She explained that the Meteorologist she had contacted ... had said, in all his days...he has never heard of a meteor making any noise. When I asked the witness about the size of this object, she said it was "Huge"!

I asked her what was the duration of the sighting and she replied that she had watched the object for approximately 3 to 4 seconds before she lost sight of it when the trees on her property blocked the view.

I received copies of the drawings made by the witnesses and also copies of the questionnaires which you have found in this report.

Questionnaire from EMO Fireball Network Station Courtenay for the witnesses to fill out. http://www.amsmeteors.org/spectra/majdenobs.html

So far we have had no reports on this object. Can you or someone that observed this event answer a couple of questions?

1. How bright was it as compared to the Moon or the planet Venus? Venus should have been visible low in the NW around evening twilight.

2. You mentioned sound associated with this object. Was this sound simultaneous or occurring at the same time you saw the object or was it delayed sound?

3. Did you hear a sonic boom? If so, how long after you saw the fireball did it occur?

4. What part of the sky was it in?

5. Did it pass overhead?

6. What was the duration of the fireball?

7. Would you say it was fast, slow, etc.

8. Did it break-up or fragment or was it just a solid object?

Please answer these questions as best you can. Ask them of each person who saw the event and try not to influence them as to what they saw. Have them report their own impression of what they observed or heard.

If we get any more reports I will let you know. Thanks for reporting this to us.

The results to the above questions have been postal mailed to me, as soon as I receive them I will post the answers to these questions.

Below is an email I received from the Sandia Bolide Detection Station EMO Courtenay, B.C in which explained the gentleman's thoughts on what he felt the residents of Sayward saw. I do thank this fellow for his input and answering my email.

Hello Brian:

Thanks for your email. This object was probably a bright meteor. You get all kinds of strange reports when these events occur as most people that see a bright fireball are surprised by it and are not skilled at making such observations.

We often get reports that the meteor landed just behind my farmer Joe's barn. If you see a bright fireball, it is still quite high in the atmosphere and many kilometers from you.

The last portion of the flight is not visible. Directions are not accurate either. It can be moving toward you or away from you and still draw the same path across the sky. It is better to ask the observer if it was going from left-to-right or right-to-left.

This way we can determined if we have observers on both sides of the path. This is necessary if you want to do a triangulation and plot a possible fall area. You should see the reports we get from UFO buffs! If the fireball is near you, a sonic boom is often heard, sometime after the event.

Perhaps several minutes later depending on how far away it is. Some people report simultaneous sounds but this is still not proven. It is probably too late to do anything about this event but we are still interested in hearing about them.

Best regards:

Ed Majden - Sandia Bolide Detection Station EMO Courtenay, B.C.

Brian Vike's, Note: I already have two more reports to add soon to this page, and I will be contacting the other three witnesses tonight, October 8, 2002.

Sayward, British Columbia

Witness #2 (out of 6 witnesses)

I interviewed a very nice lady who took the time to explain what she had seen the night of July 29, 2002.

In this report two sisters were in their vehicle when the passenger exclaimed "oh my goodness, what is that"? The driver then spotted the object, and thought both women thought it was an airliner about to crash.

She said it was very "low" and thought it was on fire. She again stressed just how low it was from the ground. (Maybe 150 feet when she watched it pass by.)

Below Image: Witness #2 filled out a questionnaire for Ed Majden - EMO Fireball Network Station, Courtenay British Columbia, Canada.

I asked the witness if the object was traveling in a horizontal position, or had any slight angle to it. She said it could have been going straight, meaning flying horizontally.

She stopped for a moment, and said to me, "I know this is going to sound strange, but it looked as if it was being operated by someone !"

She said she didn't think it was falling down at all, but more like an airplane which was coming into an airport to land and almost following a straight path.

As both women are part of the Provincial Emergency Program they were concerned that they would be called out that night to deal with an impending crash.

They rushed down to the wharf to see if there was any activity in the water, island or on the mainland which isn't far from Sayward across the ocean. They were expecting to see flames, debris and a crash scene and couldn't not believe that there was no sign of anything out of the ordinary.

The witness described the object as being dark. It looked like a big black cloud with the moon behind it. She said it was very long, like a cigar shaped object.

Brian Vike's Note: She did not want to use the words "cigar shaped", as she had heard of these types of objects before. She preferred to compare it to the shape and size of the body of a 747 aircraft.

Next day she drove past the same spot where the object had been seen previously and realized what she had seen had indeed been flying "very low". There had been no sound heard from the object because the women were traveling inside a vehicle at the time.

She stressed to me it did not look like it was falling, but being handled. (She said I don't know if that is the right word to use, but it looked as if it was coming in to land, and looked to her as if it was on fire.) She went on to say, I couldn't tell you what it was, but I sure know what I saw !

The witness also drew what she saw on paper, and after everyone was done, all the drawings were compared and found to be identical.

Her sighting lasted for approximately: 4 seconds. It was also moving very slow, and like she mentioned to me, she had seen many meteors in her life, and this was no meteor.

Thank you so much to this witness for sharing her experience with me.

Sayward, British Columbia

Witness # 3

I talked with the third witness who gave a brief description of what she saw on July 29, 2002. She said it looked like a plane blowing up ! (A huge fireball of flame). She also told me that the object was very low to the ground, but it was hard to estimate the exact altitude.

Below Image: Witness #3 filled out a questionnaire for Ed Majden - EMO Fireball Network Station, Courtenay British Columbia, Canada.

It was traveling straight along, not falling at an angle.

This witness said she heard no sound coming from it.

She described the color as being orange/yellow.

It also had a short tail following behind. In her estimation she figured the total time of the sighting lasted between 5 to 8 seconds.

She claims the object was traveling in a northerly direction.

Thank you to this witness for her report.

Brian.

Below Image: Witness #4 filled out a questionnaire for Ed Majden - EMO Fireball Network Station, Courtenay British Columbia, Canada.

I had no written report for the fourth witness, I do though have an audio interview.

I would like to thank the witness for all of their help.

Fireball Observed In The Southeast Portion of The Sky

This sighting report was never posted !

Date:  2009.

Time:  11:00 p.m.

Hi, I have been looking back to see if any reports/sightings have come up since 2009 or If I had missed any. There is a post about a fireball seen in the sky. What caught my eye was the fact that It says 11:00 p.m. I can not remember the date I saw it. But it was in 2009 at exactly 11:00 p.m. as I had just started my night shift.

I thought you would like another account of it. I walked up to the drive through window like I had done every night at 11:00 p.m., but this time I saw a fireball sitting in the sky (looking SE) I pointed this out to everyone working that night as well as who ever was in the drive through at that time.

There was many witnesses to this. It stayed in one place for almost 5minutes. I walked back and forth handing out orders and while I was away from the window it had disappeared.

One of the customers told me it had slowly descended to the ground. This was not a light. Imagine looking down a pipe that had flames coming out of it. Thought I should share my account.

Thank you to the eyewitness for their report.
