Serviceman Observes UFOs Over Moody Air Force Base Valdosta Georgia And In The North Atlantic

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

I was stationed at Moody Air Force base in Valdosta, Georgia in the early 70’s. My job was training student pilots in the flight simulators I was assigned to. I was making a milk run for my family one evening in 1973, driving from our house to the base convenience store.

The sky was clear and if you know anything about South Georgia you know that the lay of the land is very flat. I observed an extremely fast moving light about 30 degrees above the horizon moving roughly south to north from the air base. I slowed down to watch what I now believe to be a UFO moving across the sky at an incredible rate of speed.

I observed the object abruptly change direction by what I would estimate to be 30 to 40 degrees to the east. Within just a few seconds the object was no longer in sight. About 30 to 60 seconds later I saw two chase planes leaving the air base in what appeared to be an attempt to intercept the UFO.

The planes used to chase the object are supersonic jet training planes. What I observed was an object that was moving at what I would estimate to be at least five times faster than the jets in pursuit. Result – not even a contest. UFO was gone!

After separating from the Air Force in 1978 I worked a few odd jobs in the electronics field. I acquired a job with the Naval Oceanographic office in 1981. I was an electronic technician assigned to an oceanographic research ship that surveyed the North Atlantic.

One cloudless October evening, about 2 hours before sunset while in the North Atlantic above the Arctic Circle, I decided to take a short break while there was a lull in the ship’s activities. I walked out to the fantail of the ship and sat with my feet hanging off of the starboard side of the ship.

The water was amazingly calm and clear. About a quarter mile from the side of the ship I observed the water glowing from below which as you might imagine immediately caught my attention.

Imagine an extremely bright spotlight shining up through crystal clear ocean water from a depth that was in the neighborhood of 8-10 thousand feet deep.

Within what I estimate to be about 2-3 seconds, a sphere of white light exited the water.

I would estimate the size of the object to be the size of a beach ball. As if that in itself was not amazing enough the object did not disturb the water at all upon exiting and was totally silent.

The object left the water and ascended vertically at an unbelievable rate of speed. I would estimate the time from exiting the water to moment the object disappeared from view into the clear evening sky to be less than 3 seconds.

Dark Boomerang Shaped UFO North Of La Loberia Coastal Village On Atlantic Ocean Northern Patagonia Argentina

This sighting report was never posted !

Hi, here is my sighting with 2 people observing the same object.

Date: Tuesday, October 13, 2020

Time: 9:00 p.m. (Local Time)

Location: Just North of La Loberia, Coastal Village on Atlantic Ocean, Northern Patagonia, Argentina.

What was observed: My wife and I both saw a dark grey boomerang shaped aircraft flying due East over the beach toward the Atlantic Ocean and eventually disappearing into the horizon over the ocean.

It was a clear, calm night about one hour after sunset and I was the first person to spot the craft directly over head (90 degrees above the horizon) and my wife was the second to see the object seconds later in front of us (about 45 degrees above the horizon) while we were walking due East on the beach toward the ocean.

I saw the dark boomerang-shaped object for approximately 8 seconds and my wife saw it for about 4 seconds. The object was completely silent and was traveling at an extremely high rate of speed but did not appear to be accelerating.

The object completely disappeared into the horizon very quickly and had two, very dim red lights on the bottom-side of what appeared to be the wing-tips or “ends” of the boomerang. It was difficult to assess the altitude of the vehicle, but we both estimated it could have been between 250 to 500 meters above the ground.

The size of the object was also very difficult to ascertain, but it was quite large as the event happened so quickly. I don’t think many people really understand how difficult it really is to approximate altitude or size of objects when these events occur so quickly during the night like a flash in time and with no time to react to perhaps take a photo or video with our phones.

I am not sure even if we had the wherewithal to snap a photo if it would have even registered due to the darkness of both the night and the object and the remarkable dim red lights of what might be described as a nearly dead battery powering these two points of light at both ends of the object.

I am an engineer and a former surveyor and I have had previous training in distance, angles, measurements, and orienteering prior to the use of the most modern technology, but I still am having difficulty with the size, altitude and velocity of what we saw that night flying through the sky.

Whatever it was, we both thought it was not of this world. It is also worth mentioning that the night sky was completely clear and star-lit, with the milky-way starting to become visible toward the East over the Atlantic Ocean; however, there was still a small amount of light over the western horizon from the recent sunset.

There was no moon or artificial light present during our sighting and we were truly amazed at what we saw together as this was the first type of observation of this nature for either of us.

Thank you to the eyewitness for their report.
