A Frightening Close Encounter With A UFO Between Nanaimo To Campbell River British Columbia Canada (Diagram)

 This sighting report was never posted !

If anyone else saw this event, would you please drop me an email with your details on what you saw. Thank you very much, Brian. Email: houstonbri7@gmail.com

Date:  September 2009.

Time:  9:30 p.m.

My name is (removed). My experience happened in September 2009, but I just found you now.

My friend and I were driving home from Nanaimo to Campbell River, British Columbia. We were on the highway at about 9:30 p.m. about 20 minutes away from Hamm Rd. The skies were super clear and crisp.

We were chatting and had the music on, etc. Throughout the drive we both noticed 2 little lights way in the distance kind of hovering around, but very far away. We both didn’t think much of it and carried on chatting.

Out of no where, about 20 feet above her car was 2 huge bright lights (bluish-white) with orange glowing on the sides, below the light were 2 metal looking structures hanging down like 2 arms. We drew a picture when we got home, but it is kind of hard to explain, my first thought was it was a flying vehicle.

Everything was silent, the music was no longer playing, her car wasn’t making a noise, we were going simultaneously with these lights, it was like a magnet with her car. If we got out and threw a rock we would have hit the object that’s how close it was.

We were both in like some sort of trance, I felt for my phone to take a picture, but I just couldn’t take my eyes off of it. After about 30 seconds of staring, I yelled out "WHAT THE F*** IS THAT?" and it was gone. I looked back and the 2 lights were way in the distance hovering around, jerking movements almost very far away.

We both were freaking out confirming with each other we had just seen and experienced the same thing. As we turned on to Hamm Road the 2 lights were closer again hovering over by the trees with it’s lights shining on the trees.

I called the police when I got home and they said "you’d be surprised how many weird phone calls we get about that area". She seemed kind of weird about it and said it could have been the government doing testing. Didn’t  make sense to me.

The next day I felt really weird and so did my friend. Anyways I would love to hear back from you. I think about what happened this night every once in a while and felt like I had no one to talk to about it.

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Additional Information:

Hello Brian,

I was just going through some old e-mails and realized that I never replied to your e-mail back in 2012! I noticed the e-mail address you used back then is no longer active, but I was able to find your current e-mail. I am so sorry to be getting back to you almost 10 years later.

My friend and I were talking about our experience as we do every so often as years go by and I remembered e-mailing you back then. Attached is a photo of the UFO that we saw. The drawing isn't exact but the best I could do to depict what we saw. As for the answers to your questions.

The blue/white light did seem to engulf the car, the lights were so bright and the spotlight was on the car. The sighting of the UFO up that close to us lasted for under 1 minute but we saw the object before and after the up close sighting as 2 lights off in the distance kind of hovering.

Yes, the car was moving with the UFO after it lost power. My friend and I still see each other all the time, we are best friends and talk every day. We don't believe we had a missing time event, but if I didn't yell out when I did I am not sure what would have happened to us.

The days following the sighting we both felt the same, glum, detached, backwards, no energy, etc. Neither of us had any medical issues after the event although around this time period I started to have stomach issues that still affect me to this day.

I would be so interested to know any other thoughts you have about our sighting. Thanks so much for your time.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Tiny Flying Saucer With Tiny Alien Critter And "The Day The Earth Stood Still" - Brian Vike (The Vike Factor)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Over the years I have met a lot of wonderful people who related their UFO experiences to me. A lot of these stories are nothing short of amazing and I did what I could do to find something on the cases.

Most of the time I came up short, but even then, I made some wonderful contacts in the media, police, airports, etc., who for a few cases passed along information which did go hand in hand with a case I was working on.

Then there were some others who sent along some really cool things they had made from scratch. In the picture below it shows me holding a little “Flying Saucer” with a tiny Alien critter, I just love this, been always sitting in from of me when working on cases.

If you take a look behind me on the wall, there is an awesome poster of "The Day The Earth Stood Still", this also was a gift from a super guy and the movie is one of my favorites.

I do have a lot of reports in the inbox and will start on Saturday trying to get some posted, and reply to a lot of people who sent the sightings in.

If you have seen anything like this in the same area please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike at houstonbri7@gmail.com with the details of your sighting. All personal information is kept confidential.

Ex Airline Pilot With Numerous Eyewitnesses Observe Domed Disk UFO On The Road To Sao Paulo Brazil

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date of Sighting: May 6, 1994

Time of Sighting: 0330 (3:30 a.m.)- 0415 (4:15 a.m.) Local Time.

Location of Sighting: near Guarantingueta, (20 KM)

Closest town: Cachoeira Paulista (5 KM) State of Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Number of witnesses: 4

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Domed disk.

Full Description of event/sighting: Background: I am an airline pilot (now retired) and I am also a qualified meteorologist and air traffic controller. I consider myself an excellent aircraft observer.

A group of us were returning from flight simulator training in Rio de Janeiro on the road to Sao Paulo, Brazil.

We departed Rio late at night and drove along the main highway and at about 3:15 a.m.. I was sleeping in the rear of the car which was traveling at high speed.

The car was being driven by a local chauffeur and inside it was me, a senior airline captain at the time, an older flight engineer from the U.S. and my girlfriend who was a flight attendant and a pilot also.

I was awakened by my girlfriend who pointed out a light in the sky which had been following us for a while, according to her. It was a bright red light in the sky and my first impression was that it was a radio antenna obstacle light high on a mountain.

However we were traveling fast on a flat area and there were no mountains around and the light was keeping up with us. (Initially the light was at our 7 o'clock position on the left side of the car and then advanced to a 9 o'clock position)

The light was moving erratically in a side ways and up and down motion, but keeping its relative position to us, impossible for a stationary object.

I thought of a helicopter flying out there, but there were no position lights or strobe visible and the light was moving in a very odd way for a helicopter. I am a helicopter pilot as well.

The lights started to change from red to yellow to white, green and even blue. The lights were of changing intensity and reminded me of a dance room rotating light sphere or "disco ball."

This continued for at least five more minutes and we slowed down from 80-90 miles per hour to 40 and the light kept its relative position to us.

Traffic on the highway was light, but we reached a point where there was a bus, two or three trucks and several cars parked on the side of the road and people were outside of their vehicles watching the object in the sky.

It was a clear, but dark night with no moon, there was a cloud cover, but it was high probably over 10,000 feet and apparently the object was initially flying at 3-4000 feet and a mile away from us.

I asked the driver to pull to the side of the road and I came out of the car, followed by my girlfriend. The object was now descending and at a much lower altitude and closer.

After a few minutes it was real low and hovering to the south side of the highway. The top lights were dimmed and the object was hovering but moving closer to our position.

I could not hear any sound and the lights were now dimmed but still changing colors and I could see the shape of the object and it was the familiar "flying saucer" dome shaped object.

I walked two hundred feet on the side of the road towards the object which was hovering low, no sound came from it and the night was absolutely still except for an occasional vehicle passing down the road. There were several vehicles stopped on the side of the road further down and I walked back to the car quickly to get a camera.

We had an excellent professional Nikon camera with us. I opened the trunk to get the camera but we had taken many pictures in Rio and we had no film left.

My girlfriend joined me and we walked back towards the object which was floating three or four hundred feet away from us, dimly lit now and probably at less than two hundred feet above the ground.

She stood back frightened by the sight but I was not afraid and walked quite close to the object maybe within two hundred feet. I actually crossed the dangerous highway to get a closer look.

I walked into some grassy area until I was stopped by a barbed wire fence. At this point, my closest approach to the object I was probably two hundred feet away.

There were a few dim lights on the edge of the object which pulsed slowly every few seconds, the lights looked square and they grew bigger when the brightness increased and smaller when they dimmed.

The object was not illuminated but the bottom emitted some kind of bluish vapor and when I got the closest to the object I felt like a soft breeze was blowing into my short hair, though it was not windy at the time.

It felt like an electrical charge was coming out of the object which moved slowly with a rocking motion not unlike that of a boat going through small waves.

My girlfriend had walked back to the car and was standing behind the car. Even though the object was not lit other than the small lights pulsating on the edge, I could see its outline and it's top clearly. In the darkness the color looked like a reddish gray.

The object was quite large and I estimated it to be at least 70 feet in diameter and about 30 feet high. It was just hovering in the air at about 120-150 feet high.

Some of the other spectators, probably a truck driver, shone a powerful spot light on the object and there were a couple of flashes of light, maybe someone using a camera flash. The second group of people was quite distant probably over 800 feet.

Shortly after the spot light illuminated the object, which looked metallic gray, not unlike the color of an aircraft, when illuminate the object started to move more noticeably and the slight rocking motion built up to become a swinging movement which reminded me the movement of an aircraft coming in for landing on a crosswind.

There was a change of position and the object was not totally upright but rather listing about 20-30 degrees to one side.

Suddenly, there was a few flashes of multicolor lights from the top of the object and a faint bluish-greenish glow showed from the bottom part and the object started to float away quietly towards the south gaining altitude slowly at first and then increasingly fast. When the object started to move I felt some vibration and heard a faint, low pitch humming sound.

After another multicolor light display the object climbed straight up very fast and still silently. It changed direction several times in a series of sharp, right angle turns and then disappeared.

While I was close to the object there was a faint smell of ionization, not unlike that smell present in high power radio station transmitting rooms, when they used vacuum tubes and there was also a taste of metal in my mouth.

The cars and trucks started leaving after the object flew away and we climbed in the car and drove on until we reached a truck stop restaurant further down the road were several other witnesses who had stopped for coffee. Our driver, who had stayed inside the car, told me that there was a lot of static in the car's radio while the object was nearby.

Some people at the restaurant told us that sightings are common in that area. I also remembered that in 1972 I was flying near the same area one night and an airliner ahead of my airplane reported a UFO.

I did not see the object myself, but listened to the radio conversation between the airliner, the air traffic controllers and other airplanes on the area. There was a U.S. military aircraft in the area that night in 1972 and after landing I talked to the crew which had seen the object.

The subject never came up again after that night. In 30 years of flying and being a control tower operator for some time, I heard many UFO stories but had never actually seen one until that night in Brazil in 1994.

Upon my return to the U.S. some weeks later, I filed Reports of this sighting to every possible government agency but never received any reply.

The next day after arriving in the city of Sao Paulo I was at the airport and after identifying myself as a visiting airline pilot I reported the sighting to the Brazilian aviation authorities who listened to the report and took some notes. I made a couple of sketches of what the object looked like and its apparent path of flight in the area of the sighting.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Cariboo Airspace A-Buzz With UFOs

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Newspaper Article.

By Neil Horner

© 2003 Quesnel Cariboo Observer

10-30-3

The skies above Quesnel and the rest of the Cariboo area have been relatively crowded lately, and not just with airplanes and helicopters.

In fact, says UFO researcher Brian Vike, nobody is exactly sure what they are.

In an interview from his home in Houston, B.C., Vike said he’s amazed at the number of sightings in the Cariboo over the past summer and fall.

I have been getting stuff like crazy from your area, he said. All kinds of things are happening. It’s been very busy ever since mid-July.

One incident, he said, involved some Quesnel women who said they saw an object that looked like a giant plasma ball moving slowly across the sky one night.

It took about eight seconds, which is a very long time, Vike said. They watched it from their kitchen.

In another incident, he said, a Wal-Mart employee working a late shift, saw a great big red object shoot across the heavens.

Vike said he received reports of a fireball coming down in the Quesnel area recently, which was seen from Vanderhoof to 100 Mile House.

It was very bright, very low, he said.

These are just a few of the local sightings that Vike has had reported to his web site.

I have had reports coming in about just about every shape and form of unidentified craft you can think of, from triangles to crescent shapes and cylinders, he said. I had reports of a really dark object, really low over Okanagan Lake. According to witnesses, two jets flew over just after this object went through, although that’s hard to verify.

One of the most disturbing elements of any UFO report is the possibility of missing time - where witnesses find they can’t account for several hours just after seeing something. This, too, he said, has happened in B.C. this year.

In Kelowna on July 31, two women were out star gazing and they pulled over, and got out of their vehicle. When they did, they saw three white lights come together to form a triangle and then drop out of the sky, Vike said. They tried to run, but they said it was like running through quicksand. One of them said she felt like she had been zapped with electricity, and the other agreed. They managed to get to a house, with the lights still following, and that was it.

Or was it? The women reported between 25 and 35 minutes of missing time.

Interestingly, Vike said, the women’s tale was bolstered by a report from someone else living in the area who said they could see where the ladies were and could see the lights over the highway.

In the morning, one of the two women was sitting at a table and all of a sudden said, she felt awful and then blood started trickling from her right nostril. As well, she found she had a burn mark on her tailbone that she couldn’t explain. The doctor, Vike said, suggested it looked like a radiation burn.

Those ladies went through hell with this, he said.

In another local incident, a Quesnel area resident was looking up at the stars when a number of them all of a sudden moved and fanned out in different directions.

In all, there were 150 reports of unidentified flying objects in British Columbia over the past year. That, Vike noted makes up about 50 per cent of the entire crop of UFO sightings in the entire country.

Vike has been working as a UFOlogist since mid-2000, following up a lifelong passion for astronomy. When he moved to Houston, he set up his web site and started posting some old UFO pictures, and people started calling in their reports.

One thing I would like to stress is that if people make a report, their personal information will not be given out, Vike said. This is very important.

Another UFO Bright Red Light With Flashes Of White Light Over Kilworth Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  December 27, 2010

Time:  9:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Kilworth Ontario.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Large light.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Hello Brian, I popped out to walk the dog and have a cig, and looked up in the overcast western sky for a few moments. I turned to walk back up our path and caught a glimpse of a bright light over my right shoulder out of the corner of my eye. It was pretty low and very bright, so I paused and waited. About 3 blocks over, about 500 feet high it appeared silently, and slowly made it’s way in a straight line gradually getting lower in a easterly direction over the River.

From the time I spotted the light which was bright red with flashes of white light, not dull at all and not changing in intensity either, until the time it reached the river, I would say 8 to 10 seconds had passed.

The distance covered would be about 4 blocks. It was the only thing visible in the overcast sky, I heard planes earlier in the day and I could not see them because of the cloud cover, there were no visible stars tonight either. This was entirely silent, very steady and very low in the sky. Too low in my opinion to be an aircraft.

When this object was very close to my location, it was exactly the height of the cliffs on the south side of the river. I could make out the dark shadow of the cliff of the Komoka Provincial Park as the light flew steadily in front of it (the cliff). If my estimation is correct, then the object/light would have had to be lower than the actual tree line! (150 to 200 feet) Even on a cloudy night like tonight you can clearly make out the white of the sky behind the black leafless trees at this distance.

There is nothing obstructing my view except a few large trees in my own yard, nothing that I can't just step around in order to get a better look if you know what I mean. So, having said that, when I noted with amazement the very low altitude, and the close proximity of what I was observing this light just disappeared. It didn't fade out, it zipped away and it didn't reappear anywhere in the sky in the 25 or so minutes I was outside.

I hate to say this, let alone think it, but one can only imagine that that maybe it was trying to land. I don't know what to think, it was very surreal.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Meteor Green Outside With Burning Orange Center Over Mechanicsville Maryland

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February 9, 2011

Time:  9:30 p.m.

I saw one around Mechanicsville Maryland around the same time 9:30.  Green on the outside burning orange in the center with a tail looked like it was travelling SW. 

Lasted about 2 to three seconds then dropped behind the trees. Thought it was a roman candle at first but had no arc and tail was towards the sky. My son and I both saw it.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Witness Makes Contact With Green UFO Over Escondido California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  July 19, 2011

Time:  Approxamtlty 10:00 p.m.

Hi Mr. Brian Vike, I've read your post onhttp://unitedstatesufo.blogspot.com/2011/04/two-bright-blue-objects-observed-over.htmland I just want to share my experience also.

All of my life living the U.S., I have never seen or even thought of seeing a UFO, and yet since I move to Escondido California one year ago, I had seen it for the sixth time and out of six, five times I have witnesses which is my wife and two teens living next room to me.

 Last night was the closest encounter with the UFO. Before when we try to contact them using flash light and laser beam to shine at them, it would just move away slowly flashing green or blue and sometime with red and white, but blue and green is the most common. But last night was totally different.

At around 10:00 p.m., the two neighboring teens called me out of my room to see the green UFO, which was slowly moving across the sky and as usual grab my flash light and laser beam to try to make contact with it. It was moving away slowly as before, but then it stopped and it went back, and when it was getting close to about the top of where we were standing, it started flashing brightly at us with it green and blue lights.

We were so excited because it was actually trying to make contact with us, and then the worst scenario happened which is the laser beam's battery went dead. I ran back in my room to replaced the battery and when I came back out the UFO was flashing less.

I tried to use my laser beam again, but it took time for it to warmup for strongest beam, but then the UFO starting to move away slowly and disappeared into the night sky. I have the JVC x700 zoom, but it is worthless because I had try to film it before a couple of times, but can't really catch anything.

I had tried to search the net today to see if someone else have seen them, and I saw your post plus a couple of YouTube videos that almost similar to what I and others had witnessed. But some of my encountered was a bit different.

Note: The links to the video clips below are not the objects the witness is referring to in this report. The clips are good examples of what was seen.

Bright Light With Ring Of Light Around It Whitehorse Yukon

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 21, 2007

Time:  1:50 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Grey Mountain road overlooking town.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Very bright circular white light.

Full Description of event/sighting: My friend and I were driving down from a lookout on road just south of town. We were out trying to see the Northern lights and see the stars. We saw a few shooting stars and lots of satellites etc. As we were driving down the road, I stopped again because I wanted to see if the Northern lights were out. We got out and we're staring upwards, almost due north.

Then suddenly a very bright white light came through. It was like a perfect circle and was nothing like a shooting star. I doubt it could have been a meteor as there was no tail behind it, and unlike a shooting star, it didn't not seem to cross the sky, instead it grew very bright and was almost like it was coming right down on us.

Imagine someone shining a light down on you from a deck or patio as you stand underneath then extending their arm down so the light goes closer to you. This was very bright and moving slowly. It stopped for a bit and seemed to kind of hover, then started moving slowly westward. Then it disappeared as it had come. The light was very white and there was a ring of light around the object.

Like a halo almost. it appeared then became increasingly bright to where we had to shield our eyes for a second then stayed that way then slowly started moving and as it kept moving it disappeared. The whole thing lasted about 20 seconds.

I have no idea what it was and if anyone knows of any good, well documented UFO sites please repost this. I am curious if anyone else saw anything. Cheers.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

30 Foot Saucer Shaped UFO With Beams Of Light Near Pine Bush New York

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

 Date:  July 11, 2007

Time:  10:30 p.m.

Location of Sighting: New York  (near Pine Bush).

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: 30 foot saucer shaped vehicle red blue lights w/beam.

Full Description of event/sighting: Driving home on country road when lights were sighted behind a tree, about 40 feet up and about 40 feet in front of us. We stopped our vehicle, it lowered and moved directly in front of us over road. Flashing blue and red lights and a beam of light from under it, beaming onto road in front of us. It hovered over road directly in front of us.

We were actually having a terrifying encounter with this thing. Who was going to make the next move? My sister, who was driving wanted to turn around and go back down the road towards town. I knew not to get under the beam. I knew if we tried to go back it would get over us. I told my sister to make turn into upper driveway to our house.

We had to go toward the UFO, and it lowered more and began to come toward us, but we swerved a sharp right to turn into the driveway. We were terrified!

We parked our car, my sister on driver's side ran to house, saying "it is not a helicopter. It makes no noise!"  I opened passenger side, and running around back of vehicle, looked up straight ahead of me. The UFO is directly in front of me, very close to the ground, just hovering. No beam of light underneath now, but a grey blue light all around it.

It was between the house and garage buildings, just hovering there. It was about 30 feet wide. I was sort of mesmerized by it. We try to account for the time. Just remember suddenly again being behind my sister on the porch as she was trying to open the door with the keys, surprisingly so calmly.

Afterwards, we both realized it must have been directly over our vehicle in the driveway because we did not see it go down the road in front of us. Also, a funny thing was my sister had been frightened by these things hovering low near the radio tower on the road and had been practicing parking here vehicle facing the road and practicing opening the door as quickly as possible. It hovered a few minutes, then very, very slowly moves up and away from me over tree tops. A very, very whisper of sort of an electrical generator sound.!

The next day the tree it hovered over before slowly moving toward road had the leaves all drooping and looked dried out. And a circle on the grass where it hovered. There are always these strange "flashing stars" in the area all the time, and my sister is very frightened of these things. Even before this encounter.

Like she has had some "experience" with them before or something. She would point at them and tell me "those are not stars!"  And every night they are still there, some hanging very low, not at a great distance. These "flashing stars" are also here in Branson, Mo. I see them every night. Just hovering in the sky all the time. Not sure if these are military vehicles or what. But this is very frightening.

I had been in New York for only a short time when this happened and we did not go out after dark after this. Did research on the Pine Bush UFO sightings over the years. Know top military experimentation facilities in the area. Researching more very interesting information about the area and military and government experimentation and facilities.

I have found information on a UFO crash in the area in 1965, and military people came on our property about that time to search for something. I remember my dad and I watching the UFO's in the sky from out kitchen windows in the 60's and 70's, usually a cluster of three or so.

They would hover and then suddenly just take off really fast to nowhere. But couldn't talk about it then. Now look at the talk on the internet. No, we are not crazy. This is really happening. But what and who are they?  Sort of makes me proud when my sister and I can say "two blondes out maneuvered a UFO" ! What would the brunettes have done?

Joking about it now. But it was the most terrifying experience of my life. We thought we were going to die. We were hysterical, crying a screaming. Now I see them here too. Why is no one, like scientists and "star gazers" not talking about them? I can easily pick them out.

They just hang in the sky for hours, and have flashing pulsating red and green lights. And there is sometimes a larger very bright white thing with them. Are many other people reporting these things to you also?  On the internet I've found a few people questioning these "flashing stars."

Thank you to the witness for the very interesting report.

Large Tubular Craft/UFO With Lights Disappears Into Fog Along The Kootenay River Nelson British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Approximately ten  years ago. (March 1997) (?)

Time:  About 6:10 a.m.

Message: Hello! I just found your site while browsing and thought I'd like to relate my UFO experience of approximately ten  years ago. Now retired, I once worked for the city of Nelson B.C.

I left for work one morning at my usual time of about 6:10 a.m. I believe it was early Spring, probably March. I had to drive about four miles west of town, pick up my work mate and then the two of us would continue to our work site just a couple miles west of town which is downstream on the Kootenay river. 

This morning was cool and the narrow valley we live in and at that time, can have patches of fog hanging above the river here and there. The road to my workmates home climbs up in the valley and I can get a view down towards the river.

As I'm travelling along, I looked toward the river and noticed what looked to me to be a large tubular balloon (like a sausage) with three large lights along its side. Each light slowly blinking a different colour.

Although I looked down toward it, it seemed to be floating along, perhaps 100 feet above the river in a horizontal direction downstream. Suddenly it disappeared as it entered into a patch of fog. 

I picked up my buddy, and mentioned it to him on our way to work. My best guess as to it’s size would be possibly five feet thick and twenty feet long, a ratio of 1:4. 

Two mornings later, he said that he also had seen it, the evening before. We couldn't figure it out, so soon forgot about it. I must apologize, as this is not the correct module to be typing this account. Sorry for the inconvenience! 

The name of the area is called Taghum and is popular for UFOs due to a series of hydro electric generating stations nearby.  Sincerely.

Thank you to the witness for their interesting report.

Long Shaped Object/UFO With Green Lights At NAS Pensacola Florida

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Approximately 1998.

Time:  Between 8:00 -10:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: NAS Pensacola, Florida

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Long maybe round at ends.

Full Description of event/sighting: At work on Mustins Beach, co-worker and I sitting down on break facing the water noticed a long shape with green lights at the bottom flying fast and making no noise.

Absolutely not an airplane. I know and have studied planes also worked on the base for many years prior. Another co-worker was facing us and therefore saw and heard nothing.

As close as the object was flying this is seemingly impossible for there to be no sound. Also object was very fast, no sonic boom? Any information would satisfy my deep curiosity.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Triangular In Shape With 3 Red Lights Lynchburg Virginia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February 23, 2007

Time:  7:30 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of objects: 1?
Shape of objects: Triangular.

Full Description of event/sighting: The flight path is not a standard commercial route for this area. It seemed to be triangular in shape with 3 red lights at the points. The lights were flashing in a confirmed pattern.

It's fairly bright out tonight but I could not make out any discernable aircraft shape. Also, it was flying rather slow, there was absolutely no sound, and it appeared to be flying  low. If it wasn't low then it was a massive craft. It approached Lynchburg, VA  from the south-west and continued in a north-eastern direction.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

UFO Follows Witnesses Home And Gets Hit With Bright Light Lakepot California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Around 1988

Time:  Approximately 10:00 p.m.

I did not know we saw a UFO until I read your newsletter. Around 1988 a friend and I were coming home about 10:00 p.m. when we saw a bright light, just above the tree tops and going about the same speed as we were (35 miles an hour). It seemed to be keeping up with us, but about three miles away.

When she let me out and I walked up to my home a box-kite like object appeared about 200 hundred feet up. It was lighted and about 20 feet long so I could make it out. There was no sound at all, and traveling very slow. My friend said it followed her home and shone a bright light on her until she reached her home, then it just disappeared.

By the way, we were not drinking or smoking a funny weed. We were coming home from a fund raiser for the District Attorney. He won and is now a judge.

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report.

UFO With Halo Around It Edmonton Alberta

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 11, 2007

Time:  10:50 - 11:15 p.m.

Location of Sighting: North Edmonton

Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Round balls of light/halo.

Full Description of event/sighting: I went outside in the backyard with my girlfriend, behind our northwest Edmonton home at approximately 10:40 p.m.

We were looking up at the sky noticing what a clear night it was just as we do often. Around 10 minutes later I saw what at first looked like a star. It was in the south eastern sky. It moved at a pace that looked slower than a plane towards the northwest portion of the sky. 

I did a double take because there was no way it was a plane, it was way to far up. As we both watched, it went really fast and looked to be going up and almost disappeared from view, but it came back down and went slow again. Then it swerved to the right like a car passing another on the right side and then came back onto it's path.

It then continued until it came to a complete stop beside a star in the sky, in the north side of Edmonton. The colour was fainter than a star not so bright but when it was still it looked to have a halo around it and it seemed to be changing colours, we could see a blue golden yellow and red tint emanating from the outer edges.

Not too bright but definitely there. Almost like spots as the colours appeared then were gone. We continued to stare at this but we ran inside to get our son.  When we came back out with him, we could see it there still but no more colours or movement. 

As we were trying to point this out to our son, we saw another object the same. Moving in the same way and in the same direction, until it passed the other object to the west (left) and then disappeared from sight. 

We watched for movement from the first one for about 5 more minutes and nothing so we went into the house.  We were quite shaken and my girlfriend went back outside about 10 minutes later. 

She then called to us as there was another object again from the same direction doing the same thing until it disappeared out of sight.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Capsule Or Light Bulb Shaped UFO With Lights Over Northeastern Scarborough Ontario (Diagram)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 1977

Time:  Approximately 8:45 p.m.

Hi ya Brian, here is a composite drawing of the craft in better detail. In my observations the craft appeared capsuled shaped, or like a light bulb.

The sighting occurred on a August, on a Thursday-- 1977. The time was approximately 8:45 p.m. as darkness of dusk came in.

The location was northeastern Scarborough (Ellesmere and Morningside), bordering Westhill, Ontario. One hour later, after the first close encounter, myself and a witness observed one or two more " different type", of UFO's over Pickering, Ontario. Best described, as a very intense, on and off, red and white light changing light tone intensity.

About two minutes later the light vanishes in a blink of the eye then simultaneously reappears 5 miles south, over Lake Ontario. Visible for another 2-3 minutes then lights blinked off  like a switch.


Sightings ended near 9:45 p.m. My mind kept flashing of what it was as I had just witnessed so close 50 feet away and 200 feet above. 

Anyway for a better description the picture illustrates as to what I had witnessed.

This close encounter needs to be shared with others who have experienced this type and for those who have not. We need also to address the craft's occupants. What is the purpose for their visit and who do they represent?

Take care and look forward to tell you more, in better detail.    

Thank you to the person for the interesting report.
