Full Description of Event/Sighting:
First sighting, going swimming mid July around 4:00 p.m. with a friend. He
pointed up into a clear blue sky and asked what that was. We watched this
star-like object sitting in the sky for several seconds, then dart in a
straight line a short distance (H, pup hard to describe actual distance, the
object being, or appearing to be very high up, but from our perspective,
several feet at a time). We watched it zig, then zag, for about a minute, then
zoom away very quickly.
Second time was a year later. A
friend several miles away saw it, called me, told me that he had called the
Sudbury Airport to see if their radar saw anything. The airport said nothing
was showing on the radar in the area he suggested. He asked me to walk up a
hill in back of our house that had a good view of the immediate surroundings,
and suggested I look to the west.
It was a five minute walk to get to
the top of the hill where I had a good view of much of Ramsey Lake. After a few
minutes I spotted a star-like object that acted exactly like the object my
other friend and I witness a year earlier. On this occasion it was also a sunny
evening with few clouds in the sky. I watched the object zig and zag around
for a minute or so before it zoomed (or was blown) off at high speed.
My best guess for both sightings is
a sheet of Mylar or some other bright material glinting off the sun. Probably
not related, but there are several small islands in Ramsey lake, and when I
hiked to one of them in January with a compass (I was learning how to use the
compass) the needle began bouncing back and forth. The Sudbury basin was formed
after a meteorite crashed into the area about 1.8 million years ago, and has a
high concentration of nickel and copper.
Thank you to the witness for their
reports.
