Beach Ball Sized UFO Over Witnesses Home At Thornhill/Terrace British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Around 1993-1994

Time:  11:10 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Thornhill/Terrace British Columbia.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Round.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I believe I have written this once before on this particular site but, I have had difficulty with sending my e-mails. Could you please call and leave me a message that you did receive this message. I worked evenings as a custodian with (Brian Vike removed personal information) I had just got off shift and was about to open my trailer screen door when I looked up too see a large beach ball sized object, very slowly moving over top of my and the adjacent trailers.

I could have easily jumped off my porch and touched this object with a 8 foot stick. I watched this object hover over every trailer to the end of the court, it slightly changed direction to maneuver in-between the trees and maintain the same height crossing the Skeena river. As I mentioned, this beach ball sized object was dark with a shimmering thin vertical light too the center. I could not believe how slowly this thing moved and it did not make a sound.

I realize it sounds like a probable beach ball but too maintain the same height during entire sighting(which took approximately 5 minutes) only too move amongst the trees, then continue on it's way never too change height or speed. Again, if you could please confirm you received this message it would muchly be appreciated. Thank-you.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

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.

UFOs Create Tourism Boom In Terrace British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Newspaper Article.

By Jennifer Lang

Terrace Standard

7-23-3

Terrace's reputation as B.C.'s UFO capital is creating a new kind of tourism boom in the region.

Curious travellers from across North America are inquiring about the tourism facilities in communities across Highway 16, including Terrace, says a UFO researcher based in Houston, B.C.

"You would be surprised just how many emails I get over the months requesting information for our areas," says Brian Vike, editor of Canadian Communicator, a magazine specializing in the paranormal, and director of HBCC-UFO Research.

Earlier this year, Terrace cracked the top 10 in a national UFO survey, earning third place, just ahead of Houston, where Vike operates a toll-free UFO hotline so he can collect and investigate eye-witness reports.

Terrace recorded the third highest number of UFO sightings in the country last year, bringing national and international attention to the region, Vike says.

The resulting publicity means the northwest is rapidly emerging as one of the best places to see UFOs in Canada.

Savvy tourists know they're more likely to see a flying saucer than the elusive Kermode bear, the white form of a black bear that is the city's official symbol.

Vike says he's often contacted by UFO buffs and the just plain curious who want to know about the region's tourist attractions and accommodations.

"Many have never been up this way," Vike says. "So I give them the lowdown on what our communities have."

He tells them about camp sites in the area, the excellent hiking, fishing and boating opportunities here, the beautiful scenery and the range of wildlife.

"As a matter of fact, I receive so many emails, I was going to put up a page on my website which would give information to tourists on what we have."

Vike says 2003 is shaping up to be another record year for UFO sightings in the skies over Terrace, where 25 sightings were recorded last year, suggesting more national and international attention could be on its way.

"Right now Terrace has darn near caught up to last year's total count for sightings," he says.

UFO-related tourism is a growing market in the rest of the world.

Vulcan, a town of 1,700 in southern Alberta that's home to a replica starship and a tourist information centre built to look like a space station, isn't the only place cashing in on its Sci Fi cachet.

St. Paul, Alberta was out of the gate back in 1967, when it built the world's first UFO landing pad, ensuring that future space travel would be safe for all intergalactic beings.

"All visitors from earth or otherwise are welcome to this territory and to the Town of St. Paul," reads an inscription beside the 12-metre-diameter concrete pad.

The tiny U.S. town of Rachel, Nevada, meanwhile, has capitalized on its proximity to the mysterious Area 51, thought to be a secret U.S. military base.

Rachel's tourism industry began to take off in the late 1980s, thanks to its reputation as a reliable location for sightings, drawing ever larger numbers of "UFO tourists".

Nearby Nevada State Highway 375 was officially renamed the "Extraterrestrial Highway" to reflect the large number of sightings along this stretch of road.

Enterprising community leaders in other countries have boarded the UFO tourism spaceship, too.

Last year, a Chilean mayor took the bold move of designating the region near his town as an official UFO tourism zone because so many sightings have taken place in the Andes mountains there.

That's the kind of notoriety places like Terrace, Houston, and other Highway 16 towns could easily take advantage of.

While Terrace may presently lack an officially-sanctioned UFO tourism strategy, Vike is functioning as an unofficial intergalactic ambassador, sharing the region's latest eye-witness reports and his own pet theories with a curious world.

From Houston headquarters, he keeps busy doing interviews with newspapers, TV shows and radio talk shows all over North America.

Canada's Life network shot 18 hours of footage with Vike in Houston, Smithers and Telkwa in February. A documentary will air this fall season or early in the new year.

"All of this is great for tourism," he says, reminding northwest residents to keep their eyes to the skies this summer.

Vike has noticed a new pattern in the most recent reports: more eyewitnesses in the northwest are reporting objects in the sky, instead of just unexplained, or oddly-moving lights.

One sighting reported by multiple witnesses across a wide geographic area involved gigantic triangles.

Others have reported seeing crescent or ring-shaped objects in the sky.

Vike adds a number of eyewitnesses reported seeing a large, saucer-shaped disk travelling from Mill Bay on Vancouver Island to Kitimat past the Alcan Smelter and on towards Prince Rupert and Terrace.

Vike, a former forestry industry worker, tries to uncover likely explanations for what eyewitnesses have seen.

The planet Venus is sometimes mistaken for a UFO. Other sightings are later found to be aircraft, meteors, satellites, stars or even blimps, says Vike, who once belonged to the Royal Astronomical Society and volunteered at the planetarium in Vancouver.

Bright Colorful UFOs Over Terrace British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 8, 2011

Time:  2:00 a.m. - 3:45 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 3

Shape of Objects: Light of color and circular.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: In Terrace, B.C. into the north sky, myself and other friend/co-worker witnessed the UFO of bright colors of lights looking to the north. The main, or center UFO of the three was the brightest and all were high up in the sky.

Visible to the naked eye, you can see the colors easily. The sky's were clear, dark with no clouds or mists, leaving it easy to see direct objects and many stars in the area.

These UFO's were flashing, blinking with bright, almost neon colors and so vibrant. The colors would blink/flicker on and off, change color format and consistency varying the blink times and duration .even just a white flash on and off brighter to softer. Then back to the ring of colors which continued to rotate their sequence.

After about a half an hour after this began, all three UFOs had the same color patterns, the one on he right was always dimmer and the left was brighter, but dimmer then the middle/main UFO. The left one only got brighter when the main one disappeared from sight.

Using binoculars to have a closer inspection. The colors were awesome, beautiful and detailed. The UFO object was circular at times, yet almost appeared triangular at moments. With red on top starting from the right going with blue then green then white/yellow, blue green red. Much like you see on Christmas tree lights.

My sighting lasted approximately 2 hours from when I first noticed it at 2:00 a.m. and it was a very bright. It did mysterious things, like move and it shifted from side to side, but always returned back to a center point and stay stationary before continuing to repeat itself.

The initial time it moved farther away it appear to have left a haze like a blur behind it. Later on when it made a short zig zag to the left and downward. You could see a haze behind it, although this time it made a light trail behind it.

Nearing the end, the colors would begin to dim and fade blinking in different patterns beginning to get smaller. Moving away from us. Then it would dissipate entirely, just as the UFO to the left would begin to brighten it's colors. After the approximately 20 minutes time was up, it disappeared.

It did this several times and the first time when it appeared back it was further east also increased it's distance away. The UFO to the right side was now gone out of sight. The UFO to the left of this main one I've been being describing remained, but had also move more to the right (east).

The UFO did this practice several time disappearing and later returning closer and in a different location than previous and always flashing a different light pattern, including longer or shorter pauses.

It was not a plane, not a helicopter as no air flight technology we have can do what it did. They do not do things like this. (as above). With my witness there he confirms the UFO did not leave in a direction rather the light just went out. As for visual reference to use, if you held out your arm it was the size of a dime at it's largest and the size of a pen tip at it's smallest.

Being easy to see the colors at this size explains how bright and clear those colors really were! It was an unbelievable scene, awe inspiring, breath taking, and hard to grasp. But seeing do what it did, is enough as seeing is believing. It was no trick hoax, star or satellite! I can't believe I didn't have my camera or video recorder. Huge regret there. If any one else saw this with me please post it back and share you story please.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Dark Gray Disk Shaped UFO Over Thronhill Terrace British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 31, 2003

Time:  Approxamtlty: 7:00 p.m.

About an hour ago I had a fellow telephone me from Terrace, British Columbia to make a report, he said they had heard me on the radio speaking about UFO sightings in the area. He and his fiancée were on their way home, which is in the Thronhill area of Terrace when they spotted a strange object hovering high in the sky.

The couple were driving along Crumb Road and looked up just over the trees and high up underneath the clouds they saw the object. He described it as being rather flat, dark gray in color and it sat stationary for approxamtlty one minute before it disappeared.

They both saw a number of lights on it, the fellow said he thought there were 5 lights, and his fiancée thought there were 6. All the lights were white in color and the witness said they looked like the headlights on a vehicle. The witness believe the lights were running around the object, but was hard to say for sure.

His fiancée thought at first it may have been a plane, but they soon ruled that out because it sat in the same position for such a long time. "It did not move". After I asked a number of questions, the witnesses said the object would have been shaped more like a disk in shape. It was rather long, but not a lot of height to it.

I asked the witness if he might give me some kind of idea of the size of the craft. As we know this is not an easy thing to do. The man turned to his fiancée and asked, both said they thought it may have been around one and a half thumbs wide. This was a guess at how long this object may have been. No sound was heard, mainly because the couple were in their vehicle and they may have not heard anything due to the altitude the craft was at. They also reported that the sun was not shinning off it, in other words no reflection off the object.

The couple said after the object disappeared they drove to the airport just to have a look to see if any planes were around the area, he told me there was nothing in the air.

Thank you to the witnesses for the report.

Silver Metallic Blinks Of Light Seen Over Terrace British Columbia


Date:  April 6, 2015
Time:  10:00 p.m.

Hi Brian, I just went outside with my dog at 10:00 p.m. and as soon as I stepped on the grass, I looked straight up into the partially clear sky.

After 2 seconds I seen 5 short silver-metallic blinks in the sky which were directly over my place. You have seen the same when you were that one time, in 2000, in Kitwanga.

Two seconds after the blinks had stopped, I seen kind of dim grayish round object fly east.

After another +- 20 seconds the object re-appeared and went immediately immensely bright (white color).

The object, which flew in SWS direction, was for 3-4 seconds at least 1/4 moon size and went dim until it disappeared within +- 20 seconds.

Hard to tell the altitude, but certainly over 300 meters using an estimate and based on the 1998 Old Kitselas Road sighting, when we, (name removed) and I, seen the two silvery daylight disks less than 20 meters above.

Bright White Object In The Sky Above Terrace British Columbia


Date:  April 5, 2015
Time:  2055 hrs and 2140 hrs – 2145hrs.

While walking my dog, I saw a brilliantly bright white object flying from the W to the SE.

I used my flashlight on the object and the same disappeared immediately. Estimated distance around 3 – 4 km and the object was seen for about 10 seconds.

Almost an hour later, I was outside on the grass, I seen another object which had almost the same appearance as the earlier one flying with slow speed from the W in a straight line towards the E.

The object was easily to spot for 5 minutes, because it flew directly over Terrace, altitude est. 3 km, and I am certain that someone did spot it.

I need to mention that this object was as bright as the planet Venus and disappeared south of my position.

When I used my flashlight on it, there was decrease in speed, noticeable almost to the point of standstill.

Triangular UFO Spotted In The Sky Over Terrace British Columbia (Letter/Diagram)


From Brian Vike’s UFO Files.

Canadian UFO Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: There had been a number of UFO sightings running from Prince George, British Columbia right through to Kitimat and Prince Rupert, British Columbia and all points in-between.

The letter below came from a lady in Terrace, British Columbia who had a sighting of a triangular craft. She had read the Terrace Standard newspaper as they ran an article on the many UFO sightings in their area.

The paper placed my contact information in the article, and this is how the lady knew how to get a hold of me. My wife and I drove up to Terrace to interview the lady.

3 UFOs Spotted Around Thornhill Mountain British Columbia


Date:  February 16, 2015
Time:  7:04 p.m.

Hello Brian, I had another impressive sighting a few minutes ago!

At 19:04 I looked out of the hallway window of my place, which faces the Thornhill mountain in southeasterly direction, when I seen two white stationary objects close to the mentioned mountain range.

Both objects had a very bright white appearance and were twice big in as the planet Venus.

I watched the two objects for approximately 2 minutes and both of them went at different times invisible before reappearing again. After that I left my place and walked slowly towards the two objects.

The visual distance between the two was "two outstretched fingers wide". I would estimate the distance about 2.5 - 3 kilometers.

Suddenly a third object appeared very close to the most eastern (left) object. This object was white white and suddenly became orange before becoming white again!

The most western object repeated this color change from white to orange and back to white. All three objects were gone at 19.11.

All in all a very impressive sighting, not as impressive as what happened to me at other times, but still very exciting.

If anyone has had a UFO/UFOs sighting, please send me an email at sighting@telus.net or fill out the online UFO report form at http://sightings1.yolasite.com/ with details of what you saw. 

Please remember to include the date and time and location. (Town/City – State or Province) and as much detail as possible.

Orange Lights/UFOs In The Sky Observed From Thornhill/Terrace British Columbia


Date:  April 27, 2014
Time:  12:17 a.m.

A few minutes ago, 12:17 a.m. I went outside with Cookie for a pee round. When I opened the door, which faces straight south, I seen in between the trees a bright orange light which was slowly moving in a west-northwest direction.

While walking down the 4 steps leading to my deck and looking at the object, I witnessed that the same stopped, until I was on the lawn!

At this moment I started to continue walking in the same direction with the same speed. I walked down my driveway towards the road, not leaving the object out of my view.

When I arrived at Kofoed Drive, roughly 45 meters from my place, I seen another orange object which was situated west of Thornhill mountain, southeast of my place, and was following the first object.

I followed both objects continuing in a west-northwest direction. Both objects moved without any sound until a siren, from an RCMP vehicle, could be heard in the distance.

The first object immediately disappeared from view after the siren first could be heard, while the second object vanished 2 seconds later.

The first object re-appeared as a white, round light a few seconds later and went slowly dim until invisible again.

This was the second time in my life involving an orange-colored UFO. First time this happened in 1986, when a craft flew below my garrison while I was checking sentries in my function of Officer of the Guard.

This particular UFO lit up all snow-covered roofs of Sonthofen before flying into a ravine of the Gruenten mountain, lighting up the snow-covered Conifer trees.

Report 8 - Remarkable UFO Wave Continues Over British Columbia Canada (UFO Investigator Brian Vike)


By Brian Vike (The Vike Factor - Houston, British Columbia Centre For UFO Research)

Houston, British Columbia.

Date: August 2, 2003
Time: Approximately 1:15 a.m.

I went to the Houston mall today to pick up some more tapes, when I was there one of the stores employees told me about a sighting he and his friend had when they were out camping at Irrigation Lake which is just a few minutes west of Houston, British Columbia.

Both were sitting at the lakes shore when a bright white flash of light caught their eye and traveled from the north to the south and at a high rate of speed.

Before they lost sight of it, the light started zig zagging briefly across the sky and completely disappeared.

The entire event lasted approximately 3 seconds but it did give the fellows something interesting to tell their friends.

Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: It seems there has been a lot of this type of sightings recently that I have received. Lights zig zagging across the sky. It makes me wonder what the heck these lights are.

If you seen this object, or anything else like it, would you please contact me, Brian Vike at sighting@telus.net

Kelowna, British Columbia.

Date: August 3, 2003 T
Time: 8:30 p.m.

I had a telephone call from a wonderful lady who lives in Kelowna, British Columbia. She called as she read article in the Kelowna Capital Newspaper about a fellow who was requesting witnesses to a sighting come forward. She told me she saw something that was pretty peculiar around 8:30 p.m.

She told me it was remarkable to her, so much so that she wanted her neighbors around to discuss what she saw, but no one was in the area at the time.

She also believes that she may have been the only one who witnessed this object, but of course at this time she hasn't heard from anyone else yet who may have seen it.

The witness went on to say it was a perfectly round and metallic silver in colour. The object was moving across the daylight sky.

The lady also said it was round apposed to being cylindrical or egg shaped, and stressed it was as round as a ball.

The object was moving in a easterly direction and she got the impression it was very, very distant.

It moved at a steady pace, it didn't stop, it didn't hover, it just kept moving along through the sky until she lost sight of it.

She said there was no sound coming from it. No trail or tail was witnessed. The lady gave a guess at what the size of the object may have been.

She took a guess and estimated it may have been the size of a nickel, or at least close after holding out her hand at arms length.

It was estimated that the object was observed for approximately 2 minutes before she lost sight of it when it went behind the hills.

If you seen this object, or anything else like it, would you please contact me, Brian Vike at sighting@telus.net

Sakinaw Lake, Sunshine Coast in British Columbia.

Date: August 7th, 2003
Time: 10:15 p.m.

Dear Brian Vike, I too saw something strange in the sky, however this was the night of August 7, 2003. Here's my story: My husband and I have a summer home at Sakinaw Lake which is on the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia.

One of my favorite things to do at night is to star gaze from the middle of the lake. The sky is so clear there compared to the city. Anyways, on August 7, 2003 I took my star gazing gear (blanket, pillow and flashlight) with me on my peddle boat and like usual snuggled down once I got to the middle of the lake.

I usually stay out for a couple of hours and watch the shooting stars before peddling back to our home. On this night approximately 10:15 p.m. or so, I spotted what I thought was another shooting star.

It streaked across the sky heading southward then stopped. I thought the shooting star might burn out, but it didn't. Instead, the light split into 4 lights which formed a square (1 light in each corner).

One of the lights was brighter than the other 3, which made me think it might be bigger than the others. It stayed in the square formation for 2 to 5 seconds before it changed forms again. Two lights stayed in place while the other 2 lights moved slightly away, then stopped.

The 4 lights together looked like a rectangle and stayed this way for 1 to 2 seconds. Then all of a sudden the 2 lights that moved to form the rectangle shot off northward, like parallel shooting stars, while the other 2 lights only separated slightly and remained stationary.

One of the 2 lights that remained was the bright one. I was shocked and couldn't believe what I saw. I stayed there until 1:30 a.m. to see if the other 2 would come back.

Then I tried to memorize the location of the 2 remaining lights before heading in, but they looked like stars amongst so many other stars. It was useless, so I peddled back home.

I told my husband and he suggested I look up UFO sightings on the internet. There are so many skeptics and believe me I would have been one too, that I said I don't think I'll bother.

My husband printed a copy of your article for me to read and that's how I read about the other sighting on July 28, 2003 and also why I'm emailing you.

If you know or hear of any one else that saw what I did that night, please let me know. I would appreciate any information you can provide.

Thank you!

If you seen this object, or anything else like it, would you please contact me, Brian Vike at sighting@telus.net

Vernon, British Columbia.

Date: August 12, 2003
Time: Daytime.

Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: This report may not seem important, but it actually is due to the case I am working on, which 75 witnessed have come forward to tell their story.

This report I have for you is of a orange glow in a mushroom cloud. It was about the second day of the Anarchist Mountain fire in Penticton.

I was watching the clouds west over Okanagon Lake. Under the huge clouds were a string of smaller clouds lined up like beads. The heat haze and smoke from the south were over the lake and the whole picture was slowly moving north.

The last cloud stopped, and slowly moved deliberately and casually down behind Terrace mountain, in the opposite direction of the sky flow.

There was an orange glow in the center of the cloud. The distance is about 20 k and the cloud was about the size of the tip of my little finger.

If you seen this object, or anything else like it, would you please contact me, Brian Vike at sighting@telus.net

Houston, British Columbia.

Date: August 13, 2003
Time: Approximately: 12:05 a.m.

Brian Vike talked with a gentleman who resides in Houston, British Columbia. The witness told me he packed his camera and tripod up and headed over to one of the fields on their farm.

He was going to capture some shots of the planet Mars and the Moon as it is so beautiful right now. As he was setting up his equipment, he noticed something very odd.

In a totally clear sky he watched a cloud starting to form very quickly. As he mentioned it came out of no where and seemed to be shaping up in a oblong shape.

Due to the Moon being bright, he had no problem in watching this phenomena. The fellow also said there was some type of disturbance which was taking place in the cloud itself.

He tried to explain what he saw, and the best example he could come up was, from end to end of this narrow formed cloud, it appeared to look like someone had taken a shot with a powerful gun, and the force of the shell was cutting through the cloud, causing a disturbance within, or center of the cloud which ran from end to end.

There was no lights/object seen at all, just this strange long mass of cloud which appeared right out of nowhere. It sat stationary for approximately 4 to 5 minutes and dissipated.

If you seen this object, or anything else like it, would you please contact me, Brian Vike at sighting@telus.net

Between Nelson And Salmo, British Columbia.

Date: August 14, 2003
Time: Approximately: 11:20 p.m.

A husband and wife were traveling back home from Salmo to Nelson, British Columbia. They were driving on Highway #6 and along side the Salmo River when to their right, flying at the top of the mountain was a round red ball of brilliant light.

The witnesses said it moved very quickly, to fast to be an airplane and hugged the contour of the mountain. Due to there being some distance between them and the red light, no sound was heard.

The total time they watched the light was approximately 6 to 7 seconds at tops. I was also told that others traveling on the highway had also witnessed the same red light as some folks were discussing what they saw back in their home town.

Vancouver, British Columbia.

Date: August 17, 2003
Time: 11:45 p.m. (?)

Last night was spectacular. Looking out from Coal Harbour over Lions Gate Bridge, my wife (who is a skeptic) and I were treated to a fantastic dance by numerous "objects".

It was not that the binoculars were unsteady, one object would race in all directions in front of another object which remained steady, so there could be no question about what it was doing.

The motions, in all directions, including criss-crossing, were incredibly fast, about as fast as the eye could follow.

We are using 10x50 WA binoculars and it would not be readily seen with the naked eye.

Hope you find this information worthwhile reading.

Penticton, British Columbia.

Date: August 18, 2003
Time: 11:15 a.m.

A gentleman called me on August 18, 2003 to report that him and a work mate were out on their lunch break which is from 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

They were sitting outside against the building talking and looking towards the south taking in the view of the mountains. Now looking towards the southwest the one witness observed a long, silver point of light.

He said it would have been approximately the size of a key at arms length. The witness thought it may have been a reflection of an airplane as that was his first thoughts, but he just took his eyes off it for a split second, and when he looked back up at it, it was gone. (He said nothing at this point to his friend)

The two men kept eating their lunch and a few seconds later the witnesses friend said, quick look over there, the friend now caught something with his eyes.

When the witness turned to look at what his friend was pointing at, the object had vanished. His friend said it disappeared so quickly, and he said it just faded out into the blue sky. When the friend saw the object he said it was the size of a nickel at arms length.

Both men reported seeing it coming from the west and in a few seconds it was in the east, the size of a nickel. They reported the color as being a metallic silver, and at the end of the sighting the friend said it looked just like a sphere in shape. That was the last time the fellows seen the object in the sky.

Kamloops, British Columbia.

Date: August 22, 2003
Time: 10:00 p.m.

A lady called and reported something she could not explain flying over southern Kamloops. She said it looked like a squared off kind of craft with four lights, nothing like an airplane or helicopter.

She telephoned the Kamloops airport to see if they had any other sightings of this kind come into them, but after leaving a message at the airport on an answering machine, they never did get back to her.

Also she called the RCMP and they told her they had no other reports come in on this and mentioned to her that she must have been blurred by the smoke in the area and thought she saw something.

The witness swears what she saw was something not of this world in nature.

Kimberley, British Columbia.

Date: August 22, 2003
Time: 11:10 p.m.

A lady residing in Kimberley, British Columbia called a family member to go out and look towards the southwest as the witness was watching a strange sight.

When the other family member ran outside, both the ladies in different locations in Kimberley, and watched two small, but bright white lights high up in the sky dance around.

The woman reported that the lights appeared to be chasing one another and at other times the lights would stay stationary.

The witness reported that this took place for approximately 2 minutes and the lights did cover a good portion of the sky when they appeared to be chasing one another. After the two minutes has passed both lights disappeared.

Thornhill, Terrace British Columbia.

Date: August 24, 2003
Time: 10:02 p.m.

Hi Brian, On August 24, 2003 I was by myself and witnessed a bright, white colored object traveling from the northwest to the southeast.

It got bright over Thornhill, but dimmed somewhat towards your direction. I believe it was no plane, meteorite or satellite as it did look really strange.

The sky was +- 30 % overcast. No sound was heard coming from the light/object. There were no stops, no hovering, nothing strange regarding behavior and I would say it was +- 10-30 m in diameter.

If you seen this object, or anything else like it, would you please contact me, Brian Vike at sighting@telus.net

Kimberley, British Columbia.

Date: August 26, 2003
Time: 11:05 p.m.

I received a telephone call from a Kimberley resident at 11:30 p.m. and she said she was visiting family which is at the northern end of Kimberley, British Columbia by the Cominco Mine area and she said there were a couple of them standing outside and a family member happened to notice a jet airliner going over head from east to west.

The witness told me what her family member did see was certainly a jet. All of a sudden the witness saw what she thought was a shooting star just to the north of the jet, but a lot higher up.

She says it started out like a shooting star, but then there was a flash of white light and then it happened again approximately 20 seconds later and another flash.

They both stood wondering if this may have been another jet as this one was going in a northwesterly direction. But as the witness watched she mentioned that the intervals weren't the same as a jet airliner. (meaning the flashing of the jets lights).

It then disappeared and then in another 20 to 30 seconds there was another flash of light.

The witness says this is where it gets a bit odd and figured it wasn't another jet that she was aware of.

Thinking maybe it was something the military was flying overhead. She saw a flash in front of the object and it reminded her of a laser light.

She also said you could see the light zapping a good distance in front of the object. It again disappeared and in another 50 seconds or so later there was another flash of light.

Hi Brian, I just came inside with (name deleted by Brian Vike) and after sitting down for 90 minutes on the pile of wood I cut today, 9:08 p.m. I witnessed a flash of light coming from on easterly direction.

A few minutes later I watched a white colored light move across the sky and roughly 3-4 km's away and it did peak over the trees and disappeared.

Sakinaw Lake Sunshine Coast in British Columbia.

Date:  August 7, 2003
Time:  10:15 p.m.

"My husband and I have a summer home at Sakinaw Lake which is on the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia.

One of my favorite things to do at night is to star gaze from the middle of the lake. The sky is so clear there compared to the city.

Anyways, on August 7, 2003 I took my star gazing gear (blanket, pillow and flashlight) with me on my peddle boat and, like usual, snuggled down once I got to the middle of the lake.

I usually stay out for a couple of hours and watch the shooting stars before peddling back to our home. On this night approximately 10:15 p.m. or so, I spotted what I thought was another shooting star.

It streaked across the sky heading southward then stopped. I thought the shooting star might burn out, but it didn't.

Instead, the light split into 4 lights which formed a square (1 light in each corner). One of the lights was brighter than the other 3.

It made me think it might be bigger than the others. It stayed in the square formation for 2 to 5 seconds before it changed forms again. 2 lights stayed in place while the other 2 lights moved slightly away, then stopped."

"The 4 lights together looked like a rectangle and stayed this way for 1 to 2 seconds. Then all of a sudden the 2 lights that moved to form the rectangle shot off northward, like parallel shooting stars, while the other 2 lights only separated slightly and remained stationary.

One of the 2 lights that remained was the bright one. I was shocked and couldn't believe what I saw. I stayed there until 1:30 a.m. to see if the other 2 would come back.

Then I tried to memorize the location of the 2 remaining lights before heading in, but they looked like stars amongst so many other stars. It was useless, so I peddled back home."

Nelson/Salmo, British Columbia.

Date:  August 14, 2003
Time:  11:20 p.m.

A husband and wife were traveling back home from Salmo to Nelson, driving on Highway #6 alongside the Salmo River.

To their right they noticed a round red ball of brilliant light flying at the top of the mountain. The witnesses said it moved very quickly, too fast to be an airplane and hugged the contour of the mountain.

No sound was heard, although there was a considerable distance between them and the mountain top. The total time they watched the light was about 6 to 7 seconds.

Houston, British Columbia.

Date:  September 2, 2003 and September 3, 2003
Time:  Approximately 11:05 p.m. and 11:45 p.m.

An elderly couple living on Bold Road, just off Buck Flats Road reported that they watched a very strange object hovering over top of Pea Cock mountain.

They believe that it was round in shape and had lights running around outside the object. They observed it moving along the top of the mountain for about a kilometer before it stopped, then quickly dropped behind the mountain. No sound was heard.

The next night, at about 11:45 p.m., the same object showed up over the mountain, but more towards the south.

This time the object did not move in any direction and was observed for about 6 to 8 seconds before it dropped out of sight.

Again no sound was heard, and the object, or light coming from it, was extremely bright.

Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: This was certainly not a star, or Mars. The second date of the sighting the object was a good height off the top ridge of the mountain, and if a star it would have taken sometime to drop down and out of sight.

Also I asked the local helicopter businesses to see if they had any flying in the area at the time of this sighting. There was none flying at that time. Everything was shut down before dark.

Barriere, Central British Columbia.

Date:  September 3, 2003
Time:  11:10 p.m.

Just before entering her home, a lady saw a huge cylinder-shaped craft flying very quickly and low to the ground.

It had a large number of bright white lights running down the full length of the object, possibly windows she thought.

There were no wings noticed on the craft. No sound was heard and the sighting lasted for about 5 seconds.

Upon entering her home she discovered, from her boyfriend, that their cat had been going "nuts" during the time that the object was passing by.

Date:  September 10, 2003
Time:  8:50 p.m.

A couple were outside tending to their farm animals when they heard a sound coming from the north.

They looked up to see a bright white light travelling directly towards them. It passed soundlessly over top over their farm, heading south.

The sound that they had heard was still coming from the north, and getting louder. Shortly, two very large military type helicopters appeared, flying low and following the same direction as the light had taken.

Terrace, British Columbia.

Date:  September 27, 2003
Time:  10:25 p.m.

“I was sitting outside facing west when a huge saucer, 4 times moon size, materialized out of nowhere right in front of me.

I was not looking in any way, just listening to music and relaxing after a 10 hour day of splitting firewood.

The object of intensive white color did have a saucer shape and the outline was in light red. The object must have been only 35-40 meters away, or even closer, and it was not sitting still, but moving up and down.

I got very scared and my heart started pumping like crazy. I am still shaking. The whole scenario lasted for only 15 seconds before the saucer became invisible.

There was some heat coming from it and it stank like rotten eggs, a sulphur-like smell but somehow different

"Everything took place just 10 minutes ago. I am still shaking."

Castlegar, British Columbia.

Date:  October 1, 2003
Time:  8:30 p.m.

Greetings, Brian. It was suggested to me that I e-mail you to let you know that my family witnessed a strange event on Wednesday night, October 1st, 2003, roughly around 8:30 p.m.

I also understand others may have seen the same flashing lights. My name is (deleted by Brian Vike), I live in Ootischenia, just outside of Castlegar, next to the Castlegar Airport.

It was a clear night, and I was looking to the north sky at the Big Dipper. I caught a glimpse of a flashing red/green and white light moving across the sky towards the west.

I thought it was an jet flying towards Vancouver, but then I returned my glance towards the east, above the Kootenay River valley, where the jet seemed to appear from, I saw another flashing light.

A called my husband to come and see this, and he saw what I saw, then we observed another appear from the east fly over Mount Sentinel and move towards the west.

My three children joined us in our observations of the unidentified objects in the night sky. These were not jets!

Within a few minutes, there were five of these objects in the sky at one time flying in various directions.

Two in particular seemed to meet up with one another and hovered across from one another for about a minute or two, then one flew directly below it, and hovered there for less than a minute, then flew in a north eastern direction towards the back of Mount Sentinel.

It flew out of sight, then in about another minute or so, reappeared from the east, (where they all seemed to come from).

"We watched these objects for about 15 minutes, then they all disappeared behind the mountains in the horizons.

Quesnel, British Columbia.

Date:  October 1, 2003
Time:  10:30 p.m.

A couple of witnesses who were working the late shift at the Quesnel, British Columbia Wal-Mart saw something burning across the sky at a very low altitude.

The witnesses said the object was a brilliant red in color and traveled across the sky until they lost sight of it behind the local mountains.

The object was heading to the southeast. Both of the witnesses discussed the sighting and figured out what they witnessed was a meteor.

One of the men said there were flames coming off from the back end of it. Time observed was about 1 and a half minutes.

Slocan Park, British Columbia.

Date:  October 1, 2003
Time:  Approximately 10:40 p.m.

On Wednesday night, October 1, 2003, I was taking a bath. I have a large window over the bathtub facing the northwest and I like to look at the stars.

At approximately 10:40 p.m., a glowing white ball dropped from the sky. It did not descend at an angle as meteorites tend to do, nor did it have a green cast.

It was absolutely white and it came straight down at very high speed with a white tail of light behind it.

It appeared to be fairly close by in that I could see that the object was round. Looking at a map the next day, I determined the exact area my window faces.

It seems likely to me that it came down in the Southern half of the Little Slocan Valley, near Valican, unless the object was huge and therefore, further away.

The front of it was blunt, with a "tiny" tail behind it which went to a sharp point. She described the color as being white with a glow around it being an off white color.

She watched it for about 8 minutes before it disappeared to the northeast. The witness did open the window, but no sound was heard.

Telkwa, British Columbia.

October 19, 2003
Time:  12:00 (noon time)

A man and his son were out cutting firewood near Paradise Lake, which is located about 6 kilometers east of Telkwa, British Columbia.

As the fellows were loading the truck up with the firewood they cut, the son yelled out to his father to look north and just above the tree tops.

A large glowing white globe of light flew very quickly, almost skimming the tree tops. The object was heading toward the Babine Lake area.

There was not a sound heard coming from the light, even though the light was maybe 300 feet away from the men when they first witnessed it.

Vancouver, British Columbia. 

Date:  October 19, 2003
Time:  11:30 p.m.

Hi, I am reporting seeing a strange big reddish ball of light which appeared to fall from the sky. I live downtown Vancouver on the 25th floor facing northeast.

The light seemed to be over the airport. At first I thought it was a plane, but after watching it, it was much larger than a plane light and was falling vertically.

I was waiting for some type of explosion, but it just disappeared into the horizon, like it fell off the edge of the Earth so to speak.

Weird I saw this happen at about 11:30 p.m. on October 19, 2003.

As it appeared to be over the airport I think it must of been much farther as it seemed to vanish just to the right of where Mount Baker is on the horizon.

Houston, British Columbia.

Date:  October 22, 2003
7:00 p.m.

A woman was driving a number of young girls back from a dance rehearsal in Smithers, British Columbia  to Houston.

As she drove up Hungry Hill, she noticed an very bright white object in the sky. It suddenly dropped from a higher elevation to just above the tree tops.

It was flat like a dinner plate with a single green light on the bottom of it. It was generally moving in a westerly direction, but at one point it made rapid-paced movements in various directions.

No sound was heard even though she believes they were within half a mile of it at their closest.

Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: I remember this report well. When I spoke to the lady she was still upset about what she saw. She was worrying for all the children’s safely and was very shaken by the close encounter.

Vernon, British Columbia.

Date:  November 15, 2003
Time:  9:00 p.m.

A woman was sitting in her living room watching television when something bright caught her attention. She reports seeing a large bright florescent green colored round ball of light traveling horizontally across the sky from the north to southwest.

She reports no tail or trail following the object. She observed the object for about 4 to 5 seconds before she lost sight of it.

There was a low cloud ceiling that evening and the green object was well below it. No unusual maneuvers or sound were noted.

The lady believes that the object was quite large. With her hand held at arm's length it would be the size of her thumb.

Burns Lake, British Columbia.

Date:  November 16, 2003
Time:  7:30 p.m.

A couple were driving up a hill on Highway #16 (just before Babine Forest Products) when they saw a red ball of light in front of them.

It was low in the sky and travelling at an angle downwards, behind the hill they were climbing. As they lost sight of it, they noticed that the crest of the hill, the highway and the tops of the trees were all bathed in a reddish glow.

They could not see the source of the red glow, but hoped to once they got to the top of the hill. Unfortunately, the red glow suddenly went out just before they reached the top.

They slowed down and kept their eyes open, but did not see the red ball again.

Creston, British Columbia.

Date:  November 25, 2003
Time:  9:20 p.m.

Two men driving from Creston, along Highway 3 heading west towards Fruitvale, saw briefly a number of bluish lights off in the distance, heading east towards their direction at a very low altitude.

As they drew closer, the lights seemed to spread out and then, suddenly, all of the blue lights blinked out at once.

The two men thought it was rather strange as they had never witnessed anything like this before.

They were not able to make out any type of shape, or structure as everything took place rather quickly.

The story does not end here. It was not until a short time later that the two men realized that they had travelled about 25 kilometers without any conscious memory of the distance.

The driver had blood trickling down from his right nostril. Both men became very cold and thirsty. Later, the driver broke down and was crying uncontrollably.

Both men experienced vivid dreams that night. One man remembers being inside an object, or room.

I will provide an update when we can.

Houston, British Columbia.

Date:  December 8, 2003
Time:  8:45 p.m.

Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: This was some awesome sighting and I can see the area where this took place at my home. I just wished I was looking out my window when I craft was observed. Also, I found out later that the Houston RCMP took a report from another Houston, British Columbia resident.

A husband and wife were just returning home, and as they pulled into their long driveway they saw their two kids standing outside yelling and pointed towards the mountain behind their home.

The husband stopped the car quickly and both parents jumped out in fear as they had no idea what was wrong, thinking the worst. They almost immediately noticed a white oval shaped object sitting stationary over the back of their property.

The oval shaped object had a solid ring of blue lights which seemed to be moving around the white colored object.

A slight and annoying hum could be heard coming from it. The mother went over and grabbed the two children and went into the house with them, the dad followed close behind.

They thought it would be safer being inside looking out. Once inside the home, they proceeded to a back bedroom, closed the door behind them as not to allow any light from inside the home to give away where they were (feeling frightened at this time).

Through the window they watched the object, still sitting in the exact spot from when they first noted it. The trees which were below it were all lit up in a white light, and for a good distance around the area.

After a total of about 4 minutes of watching this unusual craft, it slowly started to move. As it did so the witnesses claimed they could see sparks dropping off the bottom side of it.

The sparks were reported to be a white in color. It rose up rather slowly and as it reached the top of the mountain, they lost sight of it.

The craft did not blink out, they thought it just crossed over the top and maybe moved down the other side. They reported that whatever it was, it was huge.

The husband said it was not a helicopter, no way ! He said they were very close to this thing, and what noise it gave off was minimal, except for the constant humming sound. The husband also said area residents would have been blind not to see this as it was so bright and large in size.

--------------------

Sicamous, British Columbia.

Date:  December 26, 2003
Time:  11:30 p.m.

Investigator Brian Vike’s Note: I have video footage which was sent to me for this case from the eyewitnesses, If I can find it as I have boxed up a bunch of my UFO goodies, I will post it. Also I should mention, I did speak to the RCMP officer who attended the call. He told me he did not know what the object was and he did try to get closer to the object, but wasn’t able to due to the terrain.

On Boxing Day the dispatcher for the Sicamous, British Columbia RCMP detachment took a call from an excited woman who requested the RCMP come to her home and look into the unusual sight that had been taking place over a period of time.

While making the report to the RCMP, the witness felt that she wasn't being taken seriously, and that maybe they thought her to be a little crazy.

However, about an hour later, a member of the RCMP arrived in her yard, then it was a different story. As soon as the officer saw the object, he stood and looked in amazement.

The police officer had no idea what it was. The officer left the family’s home and drove towards the mountain where the object was sitting, to get a closer and better look.

As well as watch the events through their binoculars and with their naked eyes, the family also video-taped the object(s).

The acorn shaped, or diamond shaped, UFO was for the most part, moving quickly and erratically around the sky and it was zig-zagging back and forth.

At one point, when it was stationary, it shot out a large red fireball, and then six bright orange lights appeared in the sky around it.

Each of the orange lights had another two white lights on them. These white lights shot a beam of light towards the ground.

Approximately half an hour later, four more of the large acorn/diamond shaped objects showed up and sat either stationary or moved around the sky.

The witnesses said the objects appeared to have hundreds of lights on each of them.

Prior to December 26, 2003 the husband had seen a similar object up in the mountains near his home. While waiting for his daughter and her cousin to return with the snowmobile, he saw an object in the sky covered in lights.

He estimated that the UFO was a mile away, and as big as a house. He was so excited and frightened at what he saw that he immediately drove back home, ran into the house and told his wife.

He wanted his wife to go back with him to pick up the kids because he didn’t want to wait alone!

The previous owners of the family’s home also stated that they had seen silver disk-shaped objects flying over and around the mountains behind the house, on many occasions.

This story proved interesting enough that the television station (CHBC TV out of Kelowna, British Columbia) sent a news crew to interview the family and to get a copy of the footage. CHBC TV is a part of the Global TV network which is one of Canada's giants in the media business.

The story ended up airing not just on that station, but aired all over British Columbia on Global BCTV. They ran the story at least three times as a part of their news.

Once at 6:00 p.m. Friday night, again at 11:00 p.m. and again on the Saturday morning news. As I was the investigator on the case they also called me a number of times and interviewed me about the story. The news gave this story a good length of time to play out on TV which was really great to see.

Something else of interest prior to these sightings but in the same area was when an RCMP officer who was out on his usual rounds in his patrol car ... noticed an object in the sky and was instantly hit with a beam of light from it. After his shift was over and upon his return to his detachment he informed his co-workers of what he had seen. They thought he was seeing things. Now perhaps they have a different interpretation of the event.
