Sandbanks, Prince Eward County Ontario

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 2, 2005 Time: Between 1:00 to 1:30 am

Hi Brian, On August 2, 2005 at about 1:00-1:30 a.m. on a very clear night. At the location of the Sandbanks (Lake Ontario) Prince Eward County. (80 kms. south of Trenton,Ontario) I witnessed a very fast "shooting star" moving horizontally about one to 2000 feet max above the ground. It was bright white blue light, that left a 2-3 second trail of the same colour which faded out. It's speed was incredible, with a 3-4 second window of viewing about 3-5 miles of sky. I do know and have seen, even earlier that night, noticed about 4 or 5 falling stars. But this one was different Brian, it flew perfectly horizontal with a (2-3 sec) trail signature. The direction was East to West over Lake Ontario heading towards Toronto. So was this a natural event? or other? First timer on this one Brian, feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Creston, British Columbia Orange Ball Splits In Two And Both Hover

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 1, 2005 Time: Approx: 11:55 p.m.

The witness was looking at a clear sky filled with stars. Suddenly he noticed an orange fireball shaped object appear from the south. After observing for a few seconds it suddenly split into two objects of the same. The second one stopped and was hovering as the main piece continued along for a short distance and it to stopped. As the witness watched, both objects would appear to get dimmer, then flare up to their original brightness. Finally both objects darted towards the ground and into the distance very quickly until they finally vanished. One heading eastward and the other towards the north/northeast.

The witness told me the two orange objects sat hovering for approx: a minutes and a half and very low to the tree-line.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Around And On Burke Mountain Numerous White & Green Strobe Lights

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 5 and 6, 2005 Time: Between 9:00 p.m. & Midnight

Friday and Saturday, Aug. 5 and 6th. between the hours of 9: PM and midnight. I was seeing numerous white and green strobe lights flashing over, around and on Burke Mountain. mainly near the Hydro lines. On Sat. night I aimed my video camera at the mountain. and just let it run. While it was running I attempted to watch the Fireworks on KatKam but it was taking too long to cycle. So I mainly just looked out the window. I saw numerous small planes apparently flying over to watch the fireworks and then returning. One apparent small plane caught my attention as it seemed to be glowing yellow all over, it had a red flashing strobe on top. I took a quick look through my binoculars and noticed it seemed to have black rectangular windows along the side and the red light on top was huge. It was headed east about the same height and speed as the rest of the aircraft. When I checked the tape I zoomed in and it looked more like a flying pie plate than any of the planes.

The lower portion was wider and looked like the drawing I tried making. ( Photo Shop decided to stop functioning so I was unable to trim the excess.)

The windows appeared to be evenly spaced all around the ship and being black I was unable to see anything within. Still not sure if it was a plane or not. I could not see any wings or tail and most passenger planes would be much higher and they usually have the window lit up from within. This was only at about 12 to 1500 ft. It didn't appear to be any bigger than the planes, so estimated 30 to 40 ft., only saw it from side so don't know if it was round, square or a tube. I would suspect it may have been round. But only guessing.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Boucherville, Quebec Light Turns Bluish In Color While Making A 45 degree Turn

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 5, 2005 Time: 10:25 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Light.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi, My girlfriend and I were in our homes backyard last Friday. I was out since 20h30 stargazing with my telescope as I do for 20 years each time I got time. My girlfriend was coming out of the pool and just sat on the deck looking at the sky. She told me to look at a satellite that she has just spotted coming from the North-West 'cause it looked weird. It took me a couple of seconds to spot it, because it was a little dim, nothing abnormal to me. I told her that it's just a normal satellite as the other couple of hundreds (even thousands) I've seen in my "career" of amateur astronomer. But as I say that, the light turned at an angle of approximately 45 degrees, started going South-West and picked up speed while turning kind of bluish. It disappeared so fast that I can't even think it was coming from earth, never seen anything like it in my hole life !

Since that time, we've talked about our sighting every single day...never a satellite can change it's path like that.

Additional Information:

No problem Brian, It does mean a lot to me to because I've always been aware that we are not alone in this wide universe. As I told you, I've never seen that kind of light before, and I can't tell how many nights I've passed outside looking to stars and planets. I'm 32 and I remember receiving my first telescope at 10.

Q. - Anyway, were you able to see a trail or tail following behind the object that you and your girlfriend witnessed ?

A. - Response: Not at all...

Q. - Was the object you both saw, was it at a high altitude ? (I am guessing it was)

A. - Response: About satellite high I think, surely in atmosphere...

Q. - How long were you both able to watch the object for ?

A. - Response: About 1 to 2 minutes until it sped away...

Q. - Was there any kind of flashing or blinking coming from it, maybe lights of some kind or the reflection of the sun if at a high altitude ?

A. - Response: Not flashing at all, maybe a solar reflection...

Q. - I almost forgot, was the light white before changing color to a blue ?

A. - Response: Yes, the object seemed white at first, but picked up speed and turned bluish.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Montreal, Quebec A Bright Shining Object Stationary In The Sky

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 9, 2005 Time: 5:13 p.m.

HBCC UFO Research note: I have changed the names in this report to keep the witness names private.

Hi Brian, I hope things are fine out west just as they are here down east.

I received a phone call this morning from my friend May who lives in Montreal just before I stepped out my door to head to work. She said that this time she had to call me and there was no other way out of calling me (we call each other regularly) because she and her son had both seen something in the sky.

She said after having watched the space shuttle land earlier in the day, they were in the car once again driving her son to goalie camp and it was 5:13 p.m., when May noticed something very bright in the sky. She said she first thought it was the sun reflecting off of an airplane but the bright thing was not moving. It was stationary and when she told her son to check it. He uttered the words, “It looks like...”. He never even was able to finish his sentence when the object in the sky just vanished. Oh, she said there was not a cloud in the sky either. The young boy was trying to say that it looks like the same thing he saw on May 8.

I told May that I’ve had this inkling that our object is around again and that I’m going to see it again eventually. Why do I just truly believe in that? It’s just a gut feeling.

That’s all for now.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Parkland Area In, Manitoba Elongated Diamond Shape Object

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 5, 2005 Time: 12:06 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Elongated diamond.

Full Description of event/sighting: I had been at the lake since Wednesday night, every night going out to the boat and laying on the front of it and looking at the stars. I would be out there by approx:10:30 p.m. It was on a Friday night. The sky was clear and there was no moon of course and laying on my back with my head on the boat windshield. My body was facing west as I happen to look out to the south west portion of the sky when a few moments later I became distracted by a light off to the west north west, when I turned to look directly at it.

I saw a white light, that was a elongated diamond shape. In comparison, the intensity was perhaps a third more bright than the light reflected off the space station. At first I thought a jet landing light which would be very bad since being in the middle of no-where. Then I thought maybe a helicopter, then suddenly the light increased in brightness. I thought maybe a meteorite burning up as it became even more bright, but it wasn't moving. The light continued to increase in brightness to the point of causing me to squint as I continued to look at it. I then suddenly felt as if I was in a very bright spot light. The intensity took me totally off guard and it was a very, very bright white light. I could feel panic just beginning inside of me and instinct about to kick in. It was then that the light dimmed back to the original intensity and the elongated diamond shape clearly visible again. Still I was trying to figure out what it was I was looking at. It slowly began to move upward, but not for very long as it suddenly shot straight off into the sky upward.

I looked at my watch it said 12:07 (after midnight). The whole thing took place for approx: 45 seconds to a minute, then night was dark again. I laid there for another hour trying to make sense of what I saw. It wasn't one of the things you become accustomed to seeing in the night sky.

Additional Information:

Dear Brian, Hello again...I don't have access to a scanner at the moment nor do I have a digital camera, so, for now anyway. I cannot send any kind of drawing. Perhaps the near future, sorry.

As for your other questions: perhaps the object was a half mile to a mile away, but truly it is hard to tell, for I have never seen any of the likes before.

The night was very calm and there was only the sound of the animals in the forest and in the lake that evening, even they seemed quiet when the object appeared. But that is all, nothing from what I was witnessing at the time, no noises or sounds.

The location of the lake is in the Parklands in Manitoba just near Riding Mountain National Park. There is seldom any aircraft at all over the area. There are no airports nor any kind of military, airforce, nor research installations any where near, the are no city's, only a few small towns and villages spread out.

There was no trailing light behind it, no tail nor trail. Just itself.

When the object started moving upward it was not very fast. It compared to about a second after it started to move, then speed, that cannot be achieved by us (I don't think) because of how fast it just shot up into the night, from slow to instant major speed. No rocket or jet that I have ever seen can do that.

There were no flashing or blinking or pulsing lights from the object. The only time it changed was in the intensity of the light, from something a bit brighter than the space station, to an almost blinding spot light kind of effect..then after it dimmed to the intensity when I first noticed it.

There was nothing coming off it. It was though a very noticeable object in the night, as it sat there in the sky with its elongated diamond shape glowing. It was so out of place.

There is nothing really that I can add at the moment about this incident. Except, perhaps coincidence, but the animals, they were very active that night. I mean lots of animals all around me as it is true wilderness. But they all seem to fall quiet for that brief period. oh, Brian, the way the object shot up and gone. I saw the same speed 3 years ago on one August afternoon. There on the lake, that is the only time I can think to compare it to. That silver disc that shot straight up, but you know that one. But, that speed, wow just incredible. Sorry I cannot help more, but I wish again I had a camera. Take care.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Toronto's Cherry Beach, Ontario Dark Object Over The Water

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 5, 2005 Time: Approx: 6:30 p.m.

Hi Brian, it does appear another flap, may well be opening up.Your recent reports can tell the reader, of the great signs of activity happening. Here's a picture taken after 6:30 pm on Friday August 5, 2005, on the Toronto's Cherry Beach, facing south towards the US. I was fortunate to have my camera along to catch this one. I was attracted by the intensity of light on or just above the water. It was pretty far out there, so I snapped a picture for you to judge. Note: The darker object above, to the left of the bright light. Maybe some unearthly activity?

HBCC UFO Research Note: I tried to bring up the dark object in the image the gentleman is speaking of in his report, but it was just about impossible to see anything.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Coquitlam, B.C. Was it A Disk Shaped Craft

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 6, 2005 Time: Approx: 7:00 p.m.

Aug. 06, 2005 - approx. 19:00 - Six o'clock news just finished and I decided to scan the mountains, just to check for smoke or anything unusual. About midway between Burke Mtn. And Heritage Mtn. I noticed a brief shiny flash. Usually these flashes turn out to be birds or small planes. But I waited to see if it would appear again and was soon rewarded with another brief flash.

I switched to my bigger binoculars as they are mounted on a stand and much more stable. I quickly located the object again and it appeared to be a Mylar balloon, shiny on one side and dark on the other. The only problem was Mylar balloons are rarely over about 24 inches in diameter and for this thing to be visible it must have been more like 20 or more feet in diameter. I set my camera up and aimed that way just to see if I could see it any better. I continued to track it for more than five minutes. It was moving much slower than a small plane and appeared to be stopping to check out each and every ravine or gully on the ridge just to the north of Burke Mtn. It slowly drifted out into the V shaped gap between that large peak to the north of Burke Mtn. And the ridge on the north.

There it stopped again then appeared to be coming straight at me as I could see it was slowly getting bigger and bigger. Just for a second I took my eyes from the binoculars to check the viewfinder on my camera. When I looked again it had completely vanished. I don't think it was a balloon.

1. Mylar balloons, generally climb pretty fast depending on the wind. This flew or floated pretty well horizontally for the entire five minutes at approx:. 3500 ft. and then appeared to make a right angle turn before vanishing. Appeared to be shaped like a rectangle or square pillow, but appeared to be tumbling like a balloon. Size - unknown, just looking at that gap and it could have been 20 or more yds. In diameter, For all I know. I scanned the whole mountain range but saw nothing.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Winlaw, British Columbia Bluish Colored Light Hovers

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 8, 2005 Time: About 10:50

The skies were clear when my wife and I saw a bright bluish colored light. It was as bright as an arc from a welders welding machine. The object was hovering over the ground, approx 300 meters. It slowly rose up to a higher altitude, then it slowly disappeared towards the east. As it left it's hovering position, a mist or fine cloud was seen moving behind it. The light being so bright from the object one was able to see the mist very clearly. As it moved eastward, the light picked up speed at a incredible rate and was gone.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Kuujjuaq, Quebec Orange Light & The Perseid Meteor Shower

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 11, 2005 Time: Approx: 7:55 p.m.

Hi Brian, I said I wouldn’t go out there tonight but I did anyway. I just had to check and indeed the sky had partially cleared so I can see some of the stars.

Just 20 minutes ago, looking to the NE sky I saw three “falling stars” within a five minute period. A few minutes after the first three fell, I saw the familiar little light (the orangey one) start to move, from my position, moving from NE to NW direction. It was moving slowly (relatively to its speed at other times). If I could put its speed in km/h it was going at about 50-60 km/h. I lost sight of it because some faint aurora and partial cloud were obscuring my view. It’s going to fly around us for a while, I’m sure, because that’s what it usually does. Then I looked to the SE sky (I was on my front porch tonight) and saw another “falling star”.

By any chance would you know if there are meteor showers going on above us tonight? Where can I access this kind of information quickly?

To answer the witness question about a possible meteor shower, this would be The Perseid Meteor Shower.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Scarborough, Ontario Possible White Colored UFO

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 11, 2005 Time: Approx: 10:10 - 10:15 a.m.

Brian, I would like to report a possible white colored UFO photographed. Talk about a double head shaker on this one Brian. It's just been a continuum of layers of the "strange" around me. On Thursday, August 11, 2005, at about 10:10 -10:15am. During morning break, outside. The sky, north of my position was pure blue, no clouds no smog, no chemtrail signatures, just absolutely blue. Admiring the sky, about 20-30,000 ft.+, noticed a very, brilliant, "white colored" object.

The speed would be a guess of about + or minus, 300 mph. This object traveled from the west to the east with a slight turn, towards a northerly direction. I could not identify it with naked eye, as it may have been a Lear white jet. So time for my digital camera, and snapped 2 pictures of this moving white object. I used the building as a marker, to be sure to capture this object on film, on high resolution. After the pictures, I watched it for another 30 seconds. Duration of observing this object would be 2-3 minutes total. After no more sight of it, down I sit and reviewed the pictures. I had definitely caught one on film, a "brilliant" white dot, dead smack center on one of photo's. Here's the double head shaker Brian. After about half an hour later, I thought of viewing the pictures once again. This time, in a darkened washroom, very close to where I work. I was excited that maybe the darkness would add definition to the object. I was surprised to see that what I caught on film wasn't there anymore in the photos.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Edmonton, Alberta Soft Light Blue Object Changes Direction

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 11, 2005 Time: 11:25 p.m.

Message: At 11:25 p.m. in Edmonton Alberta. My brother yelled for his wife and myself to come outside "quick!".

What appeared to be a shooting star was streaming by horizontally with 2 changes in direction before it resumed a horizontal path.

We easily ruled out plane and its path (remaining at a steady distance from the ground, higher than any plane's path we ever witnessed) we also ruled out shooting star. It was similar to a star in appearance from the ground, soft light blue coloring.

It was Awesome!

We stood there for approx 2-3 minutes until its distances made it hard to see.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Richmond, British Columbia Dull Yellow Oval Shaped Object

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 12, 2005 Time: 10:45 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Backyard of residence in Steveson. Number of witnesses: 3 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Oval disk like.

Full Description of event/sighting: We were viewing shooting stars when out of the south east, an oval object appeared. It was a dull yellow and moved slower than a shooting star and quicker than a small airplane. We saw it for about 7-10 seconds and then it disappeared towards the North Star. It seemed to have a headlight that illuminated itself. It was distinctly oval and unique. We all agreed at the same time that what we were looking at was a UFO.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Boucherville, Quebec Object With Bluish Color Changing Back To White

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 13, 2005 Time: 9:35 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Backyard, in front of me, over a tall tree. Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Sphere like.

Full Description of event/sighting: I went outside for a cigarette and as usual, I was looking to the sky hoping to see some of the annual Perseid meteor shower. All of the sudden, a bright light moving east to west appeared before my eyes. At first, I thought it was a satellite, but after a second I realized it couldn't be a satellite because it was moving too fast and had like a bluish color changing back to bright white as it moved.

It also seemed to me that the light had a sort of revolution around itself as it was moving. Like a ball rolling down on a floor.

I followed its course for 4-5 seconds until it disappeared into a cloud.

I forgot to say that there was no sound what so ever, no blinking lights like on a plane.

Well, that's about it. At last, a sighting in my hometown. Maybe it's just the beginning.

Additional Information:

Hi Brian, I will try to answer your questions the best I can.

Q. - 1. Did the object travel in a straight flight path:

A. - Yes

Q. - 2. What were the weather conditions at the time of the sighting ?

A. - Hot summer night, no wind, cloudy.

Q. - 3. Would you estimate the light was at a great altitude, I am wondering as you mentioned it disappeared into a cloud ?

A. - Well, it seemed to me that the light was not that high, opposing to a satellite for example. If I'm right, the light was at almost the same altitude a small recreational plane would have.

Q. - 4. Were there any aircraft in the area at the time of the sighing that you can remember ?

A. - There was no plane at the time of the sighting. No engine/propeller sound, or blinking lights.

Q. - 5.And did it have a trail or tail following behind it ?

A. - No

Q. - 6.Were you able to see any shape at all to it, or did it seem to change shape as it traveled across the sky ?

A. - Well, it seemed to me that the thing were round, like a little sphere of light. Again, I can be wrong, but I really think I saw it revolving around itself as it was moving.

Q. - If I can think of any other details, I will contact you.

A. - You can be sure I will watch the sky carefully for the next weeks.

Have a good night.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Dryden, Ontario Two UFO Discs

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 1, 2005 Time: Approx: 2:50 a.m.

On August 1, 2005 about 2:50 a.m. I awoke as I could not sleep. So as normal, I got out of bed walked out on to the deck and looked up to the sky. I saw that it was a gorgeous night, the stars were shining bright. So I sat on the lawn chair and slouched back with my head on the backrest watching the stars. Then all of the sudden two disc like objects lit up above the housing subdivision. I jumped out of my chair, blinking my eye and starring at the two UFO discs. They started to move slowly across the sky from north to south then the one on the left moved sideways and then back again. They made no noise as they slowly continued moving south over Gamble subdivision down towards the yacht club docks and over the trees. Then they were out of my view, this lasted for about 40 seconds I would guess these object were about two or three thousand feet of the ground," I still can't believe it my self" since that night I have been reading like crazy on UFO sightings.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Western Oshawa, Ontario Low Flying Flashing Light

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 13, 2005 Time: 11:26 p.m.

Brian, I would like to report a UFO sighting that was extremely close to my position tonight. They don't get much closer than this! I'm outside at home in western Oshawa, sky watching tonight, facing west on Saturday, August 13, 2005 at about 11:20 pm. In the description of what I saw, was simply amazing. This roundish, white star object, flashing ever so slightly, moving along north of my position.

Here's the kicker, this object was very low, at about between 100-150 feet above the ground. The distance from myself and the object, would be also between 100-200 feet max. away. The speed of the object to guess, would be around 80-100 + mph. This object appeared to be flashing, and it's size would be 2-5 ft. in diameter. It's flight path was from the east to west, towards Whitby,Ontario. The object's light intensity was just like that of a star,whitish blue. It did appear to have a ever so slight, up and down movement (waving). I had only a window of about 3-4 seconds to view this star-like object. I recorded the time at exactly 11:26 pm EST. How much closer will "they" get. I please urge any other people, to report any similar sightings to this recent one I have encountered.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

West Vancouver To Coquitlam, B.C. Strange Cloud & Fireball

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 20, 2005 Time: 8:57 p.m.

Hi Brian, 08:57 - Aug. 20, Just after sunset, sky was still quite light towards the west, was just sitting here half watching TV and talking with my wife, all of a sudden she said, "what the heck is that". I looked over to Cyprus Bowl in West Vancouver where she was pointing but the only thing I could see was what appeared to be a dark gray contrail hanging in the sky and extending about half a mile to the south. She kept saying, look, look, its moving. I watched it more closely than realized she was right it was moving at a very high speed for a cloud. I took a look through my binoculars but it still just appeared to be a dark gray contrail.

Anyway within about 30 sec. to a minute, It traveled from over Cyprus Bowl to Heritage Mountain. In Coquitlam. All the time it maintained its shape, not spreading out like most contrails do, when being blown by the wind. Never seen clouds do that and I noticed the other clouds north of the mountains, all appeared to be going very slowly from east to west, not west to east. When it got over Heritage Mountain. It just seemed to fade away. Seconds later a very large meteorite or fireball appeared in the sky almost over our bldg. It headed north towards Heritage Mountain., before apparently burning out at almost the same spot in the sky where we last saw the contrail. I told my wife the contrail was probably from a Jet flying over earlier, but she insisted no.

That was the same thing she used to see in the skies over Fiji, going from the west towards the south. I repeated probably a Jet, she said "No its not" she used to see Jets flying over all the time and they were always white, not black or dark gray like this was. Wish I'd had the camera ready when the fireball went over it was spectacular and moving much slower than the usual meteorites we see.

The fire on Heritage Mountain. is out now but I still wonder what that white object was, you should have seen the way it just faded out as it resumed level flight. The sky conditions were still the same when the choppers came and they were flying all around the same area and the sky was clear, the only time I couldn't see them was when they either flew behind the mountain or dropped down behind the ridges apparently to get water.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Summerland From Penticton, British Columbia Ring Of Lights

Posted: January 12, 2008

HBCC UFO Research Note: As you will read in this report, there were others who witnessed the same ring of lights in the sky as this the lady did. I am hoping some other people who saw the object in the sky in this area would be kind enough to contact me with their report. Thank you, Brian

Date: August 25, 2005 Time: Approx: 9:30 p.m.

Hi Brian,

Enjoyed checking out your website, but was curious about something my girlfriend saw last night. She was heading North to Summerland, B.C. from Penticton, B.C. at about 9:30 when she saw something that was basically a big ring of lights in the sky. She works in Summerland and a couple of customers mentioned that they saw something along the same lines.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Scarborough, Ontario A Long White Hooked Shaped Object

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 26, 2005 Time: Between 2:00 - 2:30 p.m.

Today, on August 26, 2005, I was at my parents house in Scarborough.Ontario. At about between 2:00-2:30 pm, I noticed a strange long, white "hooked" shaped object. Viewing south of my position, it's altitude would be 2-3000 feet +. I could see the fluffy seeds flying with the wind.at a lower altitude,1000 feet less. This long white hooked shaped object remained stationary for about 30 seconds. Then amazing, when it made it's departure, it suddenly then, straightened out long in length, "horizontally straight". Then in a blink of the eye, it shot across directly west towards Toronto. The straitening act and speed departure did overwhelm me. This thing could bend, and stay stationary for my viewing. You do curse yourself, not having your camera at moments like this.

Thank you to the person for the report.

St. John New Brunswick Large Orange Ball

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 13/14, 2005 Time: 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m.

Message: I was not going to tell anyone. Myself and a friend saw something that could not be explain. There is a big Red Ball in the sky. It looked like a harvest Moon it moved across the sky then it stopped. went straight up, straight over, straight down, than it shrunk half it size. My friend was almost to her house and I yelled at her. Told her to look up it was over her head she described it looked like a Frisbee. Then it shrunk into a star and then it was gone. This was the 12 or the 13th of August nobody has reported this to the paper or the radio in my area. I live St. John New Brunswick Canada. I was doubtful about UFOs but there is absolutely no way to explain this. And if my neighbor had not seen it I would have never said a word. I would like to know if anybody seen anything like this before. Thanking you.

Additional Information:

I will do the best I can. I am pretty sure it was August 13 around 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. on 14th. My neighbor was going home so I went out to lock my truck. As she was walking to her house I seen what I thought was the moon. I thought to myself it is awful late at night for bright orange moon. Then it started moving across the sky it was to the East.

So I yelled to my neighbor to look up. She looked back toward me and did not see nothing. She started to walk home again I yelled at her again this time she stared back down the driveway. She got about halfway down my driveway that's when I told her look up. When she look up she could not believe what she was seen it looked like it was directly over her. As we watched it, it shrunk into a star. It was a clear night with just a few clouds not around the object that's how come I couldn't tell how high it was. I could not hear a thing. We watched his thing which seemed like forever but if I had to guess I would say anywhere between two to five minutes.

There is an airport East of me but no plane or helicopter or glider or balloon couldn't move like this. Or shrink into a star at fast that quiet and that cool. There is a military base 60 to 80 miles to the North. But this is can Canada, are military couldn't have anything that moves like that. Last year I had some IQ test and other tests, one test was for commonsense. My score I was in the top 90% of the population for commonsense. If I had any reason to think this could be anything other than some from another world I would never tell anybody.

It was just like I was watching a movie with unbelievable effects that makes you believe the is movie real. I am 100% sure no one on this planet could make or fly in that kind of pattern. In these tests I had done they did find I had hard time remembering facts when I study. So I hope what I do remember helps you. The first time I wrote I said it was red but when you said Orange, that made more sense because I thought it was a harvest Moon which is orange. But I think it was a bright orange sorry that my memory is not that good. That is something I will remember all my life and hope someday to have a chance again.

Thank you to the eyewitness for the report.

Pitt Meadows, British Columbia Object Flashes A Golden Light

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 25, 2005 Time: 10:30 p.m.

Hello there. I just wanted to share a .. sighting with you. I think at least that's what it was.

On, Thurs, Aug 25/2005 at about..10:30pm I saw something moving horizontally through the sky. My bedroom window has a clear view of the golden ears mountains here in Pitt Meadows. I have never before been sure if I've actually believed in this sort of thing before. But, this was amazing.. They were moving east across the sky.. I say they because there was two lights.. either two something's or one big something. I was squinting and couldn't remember where I put my binos. Every once in a while it would flash a lovely golden light of sorts but that maybe because the moon was large and orange that night and I suspect it was reflecting. The movement was erratic.. fast.. then slower.. then it would hover.. then it moved diagonal upwards.. I heard something in the driveway and ran to the other window to see.. it was a cat.. by the time I got back to my bedroom window.. it was gone.

Anyway, that's all I have for you.. wasn't even sure if I should report it but there you go for what it's worth.

Thank you to the eyewitness for the report.

Nanaimo, British Columbia Fast Moving Light Veered Slightly East

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 28, 2005 Time: 8:45 p.m.

Message: Hi Brian: We live in Nanaimo British Columbia and we were northbound on the Island Highway this evening at about 8:45 pm when we witnessed a very bright light coming towards us just to the east and travelling in a southerly direction. I saw it first and thought it was a meteorite and I drew my husband's attention to the object. It did not have a tail. It appeared to be travelling extremely quickly, much faster than an airplane and in a straight line when all of a sudden it veered slightly east and upwards at an angle and disappeared into the clouds. It was almost dark but not quite. We pulled the car quickly over to the side of the highway and stared out the window expecting the object to appear through the cloud cover on the other side but it just disappeared. Have you heard of this from anybody else?? Who should we report this to???

Thanks for your assistance.

Chilliwack, British Columbia Large Orange Harvest Moon Looking Object

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 22, 2005 Time: Approx: 4:30 p.m.

HBCC UFO Research Note: This eyewitness was referring to a sighting of a Large Orange Ball over St. John New Brunswick. Link to the other report here:

Hi again Brian, I'm writing you again since I just read the latest hbcc postings on Rense. Much to my amazement, I pasted the report below to this email since what I saw last week has similarities the report below and the one that followed it. This took place in Chilliwack BC and I'm wondering if anyone else saw what I saw. At first I dismissed what I saw as a hallucination or my eyes playing tricks on me since the event was but a brief moment in time, but the posting below and the one that followed it took away all doubt. I'm trying to reconstruct the event and time as I did not take it seriously at the time so I did not record it in my daily journal. Near the end of the workday about 4:30 PM Monday August 22, 2005 I was loading up a company truck preparing for the next work day.

After the truck was loaded I went to park it at the back of our lot where the company vehicles are stored in our compound. I just happened to look at the back of our building (through the windshield) as I was parking and noticed what looked like a large orange harvest moon low in the sky visible just above the roofline of our building. At the time I was startled at the odd sight as it was late August not late October and late afternoon not evening. I went about locking up the truck and went to look again at the odd sight and was just as surprised as I was to have seen it in the first place by the fact that it was no longer there. I actually walked to the side of our building for a look so that the building did not obstruct my view in case it had set lower on the horizon. It could not see it anymore, it did not re-appear and I was not looking at it the moment it disappeared.

Thank you to the eyewitness for the report.

South Shore of Montreal Commercial Airliners Appearing To Look Unusual

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 22, 2005 Time: 7:00 p.m.

Hello, I am located in the Montreal region. On August 22, I went outside at 7:00 pm to mow the lawn. There were no clouds in the sky. I heard the sound of a small plane motor and looked up. There was one of those "lighter than air" little propeller planes - those ones that have colorful wings like kites.

I took a glance at it, but was immediately surprised that - just above it - there was a strange looking object. It looked like two old artillery shells back to back with a space between them. At first, I thought it must be a plane that I was not seeing clearly. But, no matter how long I glanced at it, I could see no wings or other details. Just the two shells with a space between them.

It moved in a straight line in a "corridor" usually used by planes. So I was suspicious nonetheless that the "other-wordly" appearance might be an illusion.

I ran inside to get my camera, but when I arrived it was already very far and the two pictures I took only showed a dot of light. I was a bit frustrated to have missed that and put the camera back inside the house.

However, just as I went back outside, I glanced up at the sky and - to my astonishment - here was ANOTHER object exactly like the first at my right, exactly where I had seen the first and following the same trajectory. This time, my camera was at the ready, so I went and picked it up just next to the front door and started shooting. I took several pictures.

I did not know what to think of this but called a friend who is very knowledgeable of planes and told him what had happened. I said I wondered if the position of the sun could make the body of a commercial plane look that way while making the wings look invisible. I took a look at the pictures and they showed what I had seen...

But then, after the chatting, I went back outside to mow the lawn. Sure enough, within five minutes, I heard the sound of a jet plane. I looked up and here was that same or similar object in the sky. Hearing the plane sound, however, made me think that what I saw earlier may have been planes too - even though I could not hear a plane sound in the first two instances.

Anyhow, I took more pictures. Then I saw two more, one right behind the other, which I thought was strange for commercial airplanes, but there was a plane sound this time also.

Yesterday, I was outside at 6:30 pm and saw identifiable commercial planes taking the same route. They were identifiable because I had binoculars this time and could tell they were planes. Also, even without binoculars, I could see the wings.

I still need to see planes in the same lighting condition at the same time of day with the same cloudless sky to see if planes WILL turn out looking like the two shells with a space in the middle.

That time, I'll be ready with binoculars.

This evening, the friend I had told my story to mentioned there was an article in the Montreal Mirror on UFOs. I checked the article on the web and a link eventually lead me to your site. I decided to check the recent sightings page and looked at some reports that featured pictures. It didn't take long that I came across the Keefer article page and saw the description and picture and video identical to what I saw.

Problem is that I still am of the opinion that what I saw and photographed may be nothing more unusual than commercial airliners lit in such a way as to look "other wordly".

I have attached a few of my pictures that are highly cropped from the originals. You will see the surprising similarity between my pictures and the one on your Keefer page. I don't know if they are the same type of object, but I found it uncanny to come across this page only two weeks after making a similar sighting - that I described in near identical terms and that records on film similarly.

Note that all the pictures show a second object in the distance, which I believe is the first object I had originally sighted.

My main interest is to try and photograph planes at the exact time and location these photos were made to see if they will come out looking the same. Also, some pictures I took I now believe may show signs of wings... I am delayed in trying to make similar observations because of my sprained muscle in my left arm that has been aching acutely in the last two weeks and also because I have not yet encountered these exact weather condition on a day I was able to check for it.

Additional Information:

Yes, well this is the very page I visited this evening and saw the object identical-looking and same description as what I saw and photographed.

I did not have time to view all the video clips on the above page but watched the first one that shows the actual object.

Of course, I would be curious to see any other updates and maybe photos made of similar objects by other people. As I mentioned, I believe that what I saw and photographed may be a commercial airliner, so I would need to see something really uncanny about the Keefer object behaviour to make me reconsider.

One problem I had about my sighting was that the object moved in a straight line and at a speed one would expect of a plane. So nothing uncanny besides the appearance of the object... And that seems to match the Keefer description (so far as I know) If the object were to stop in mid-air, now that would be quite another matter !

Thank you to the eyewitness for the report.

Northern Alberta (85kms From Peace River) A Bright Light

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 25, 2005 Time: 9:55 p.m.

Last Thursday on August 25th, 2005 my boyfriend (name removed) and I and my aunt (name removed) took advantage of the nice warm weather and clear skies and decided to do another night of star gazing. It paid off. We saw a very bright light coming from the south western part of the sky. I asked my boyfriend what time it was right away and he said it was 9:55pm. This light went behind some trees and it should have gone over them in a few seconds but it didn't. We waited and waited for it to show up because it would have come right above us or pretty close. Instead it shows up in a different location not too far from where we saw the first one about five minutes later.

It was now traveling towards east from a westerly direction. As it went it became dimmer and then finally it vanished. I was excited to say the least. However it was too far to see any detail or hear any sound. All I can say is that it looked like a star but it was much bigger and brighter. About fifteen minutes later an airplane came by from an eastern direction heading west. We could hear it and it's light were blinking. There was a definite difference on the two objects on their speed and behavior. We were out until 1:00am in the morning hoping to see something again but nothing happened. Just the usual satellites and shooting stars.

Thank you to the eyewitness for the report.

Cochrane & Lake Louise, Alberta Dark Cloud & Fireball ?

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 25, 2005 Time: Approx:7:00 pm

Brian a few days ago myself and girlfriend were sitting on the balcony watching the view of the mountains (our balcony view has an amazing view of the mountains) in Cochrane ,when I noticed two puffs of dark cloud in the distance, they seemed to me to be moving differently than a normal cloud would.

Now when I zoomed in to the dark clouds almost instantly the dark clouds merged together and started falling from the sky in a spectacular fireball (dark cloud on top and the fireball below). As I continued to film suddenly something silvery white broke off from the bottom of the dropping fireball. Clearly it's oval shaped, enormous with a clear black bottom. Now let me add that the bottom of the falling fireball as well had the same type of dark black bottom as if another object was waiting to be expelled from the bottom as well.

Similar to holding a roll of mentos up and letting the candy fall out the bottom. So...the object after detaching itself from the fireball not moved downward and to the right and then again it discharged another orange cloud about the length of half a pinky finger at arms length. This next orange worm-like "cloud" then "pinched" itself together into three clouds (similar to a roll of sausage's, but remained in the exact spot not drifting as the clouds were.

Then once again the object broke off the "sausage's" right side and again was by itself and proceeded to continue on until it flew into a cloud bank.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Canada at U.S.Boarder Near Creston B.C Light Stopped & Moved Erratically

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 27, 2005 Time: 9:30 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Canada at U.S.boarder near Creston B.C Number of witnesses: 2 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: To far away to tell for sure.

Full Description of event/sighting: We were camping in our boat on the Kootenay river near the Canada and U.S. boarder. On our way home we anchored and around 9:30 we saw a bright light moving along the top of the mountain at a very high rate of speed. The light stopped and moved around erratically. This went on for about 45 minutes. The next morning we looked up at the area where we saw the bright light, and saw hi voltage power lines coming over the mountain in the area where we spotted the bright light. We talked to the Canada Border Guard and told him about our experience. He said that on one occasion he saw the same kind of light in the same vicinity.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Cochrane, Alberta A Very Unusual Object Witness By 5 People

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 28, 2005 ? Time: Approx: 5:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 5 Number of objects: 2 Shape of objects: Morphing.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian, I was sitting on my front porch, reading when the doorbell rang, my girlfriend and daughter answered the door as it was a friend up the block with her daughter. I could hear the four of them talking when the visiting lady friend suddenly pointed for everyone to look at a spot about a block half away, asking "what is that"?! The four of them stood looking for several seconds at something my girlfriend has a very hard time describing. She said it was massive, and soundless as she pointed out the spot to myself outside. The size approximately a quarter held at arms length, making it extremely large indeed considering only a block half away. The shape, impossible to described. It was in two parts, part above larger than the bottom piece, both grey-shark skin or stone/granite colored. Any light reflecting off it was absorbed by these objects making it impossible to focus on them properly. At the same time distinctly there and solid, later my girlfriend passionately explained she felt cheated not being able to really see something so big and close, even though she had her glasses on.

The second smaller object trailing underneath (shadowing the object perfectly) started to change shape, the right end of it dropped downward looking as if turning to liquid, pouring downward seemingly "dripping" off the edge of an invisible plate, and then lower down taking form as if in an invisible odd shaped glass. I hope this description doesn't confuse anything, so hard to describe (sigh) Where is Spielberg when you need him!! The bottom thing looked as if it were three huge balls undulating, rolling around inside a grey colored sack. Fuzzy texture, not smooth and reflective. The top object retained its shape all the time while the bottom object spun around, flipped and morphed all the while shadowing the above object, it wasn't attached but still stayed with it in total precision (like magnetically attracted and repulsed). Impossible to totally focus on them.

Now, strangely, the visiting neighbor woman and her child looked away from it, and inexplicably continuing with the conversation as if nothing happened, my girlfriend thought it odd as she was still inadvertently staying with the object till it moved slowly disappeared behind the side of the house. Maybe 10 -15 seconds approx: until she called me to see it. I heard her say "it isn't a helicopter".

I stood up off the chair and quickly scanned over the neighborhood and found it!, I saw it, although now it was much smaller, telling me later it had moved away and to the right from the four of them, it was now directly in front of me and at the end of the street, could only be described as a large black blob of something with another blob below it rotating and moving, twisting. Eerie to say the least. Creeped out beyond belief. I ran into the house going for the video camera. Coming back out I noticed it bigger and coming towards me, I lifted the camera and tried to get it to record but it wouldn't work! I'd hit the record button, instead of the usual one (bleep) and record, I got two beeps and nothing. Later inspection a setting on it had been changed and I didn't know it existed. Using it over two years now I had to hold the button down and didn't know it, that setting had never changed before. So I'd hit the record button and let go, and it wouldn't record. I needed now to hold it down stupidly. This instantly frustrated me and for some reason I got scared. Thinking why after two years of using this, isn't it working?! I'd re-cued the tape, checked it over knowing valuable seconds of filming time were ticking away. Nothing worked. Meanwhile looking up it still was coming towards and over me and to the right, gaining altitude.

Thinking about it later, while fumbling with the camera not working I had this instant urge to not look at it, crazily feeling if the camera wasn't working I shouldn't look at it with the zoom, crazy as sounds, hard to describe, I wasn't thinking that at that moment in my brain but I was acting it out physically, not looking, only later realizing that was what I was thinking and why? why didn't I look at it through the viewfinder close up? I could have seen it so close. I could have cried Brian, still kicking myself and out of my character. I was concentrating so hard on trying to get the camera going and can't understand why I didn't zoom in on it to have a peek, even if the camera wouldn't work. Thinking several days later it felt at the time like either "it", or some primitive "hard-wired-brain response-type thing was in control. Sounds crazy but, I've experienced that in past sightings but never to this degree.

Maybe 10 km fast, direction of flight started towards them and to the right slowly. Then quickly away from us as I looked at it, continuing to the right, as I tried to film it, it went slowly towards me and up and to the right,high into the sky but still very visible and disappearing over the roof of the neighbors house. My girlfriend and daughter went out back to see it but couldn't. Later looking at the camera I noticed a small button that had switched for the first time to the manual record mode. Too much and a chance of a lifetime and the button got moved. In two years of using this camera the record mode had never been moved. Murphy's Law to the extreme. The daughter is only 8 so we didn't bring it up to her. She will bring it up in her own time when ready we hope. The only thing she said was, "could have that been aliens? and, "it had red sparkles on it". Not knowing what to say to her, I explained it must have been a bunch of balloons. Hope somebody else saw this. My wrist is sore from typing now I hope it's all for something.

Saint-Alphonse-de-Rodriguez, Quebec Orange Round Object

Posted: January 12, 2008

Date: August 25, 2005 Time: Early evening

We were visiting my brother-in-law at his cottage, located at Saint-Alphonse-de-Rodriguez. At the end of the day we went outside with my grand-daughter so she could play with the sparklers in front of the chapel and the fountain. I took pictures of my grand-daughter, then the chapel. All the pictures were taken without a flash. My camera is a Nikon D-70. I turned around and I took shots of Lake Stevens. The cottage is located on a cliff that's about 140 or 150 feet high and overlooking the lake. It was dark and the moon was absent. The cottage is surrounded by trees on 65 acres of land.

I was not looking, I didn't see anything and I didn't adjust the lens. When I downloaded the pictures, I was surprised to see the orange round object. I must have taken the picture at an angle because if I zoom on the object I can see circles underneath and I can see an orange glow emanating on the left side of the picture. I will send you the picture if you want it.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Westend In Vancouver, B.C. A Stationary Object

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 25, 2005 Time: 9:15 p.m.

Hi Brian, I live in the westend in Vancouver,BC. I live in a high-rise and love to sit out on my balcony at night and relax before going to bed. On some clear nights I notice a peculiar bright star, I say peculiar only when you are viewing it through the binoculars. It seems to have an assortment of colored lights, red, green and blue. When I view other stars through the binoculars they are not like this one. This is my first summer in this apartment and this star was in the direction of southwest. Last year in my other apartment around the same season (summer) where my windows faced north I saw this same kind of star but in was in the northeastern direction. Any explanation as to the colors. Is it a planet?

By the way, I too saw from my balcony a stationary object in the southwestern direction described almost exactly like the man from Airdrie, Alberta in 2004. It was too far away to determine a row of lights but it behaved the same way, stationary for at least one half hour and some sort of light reflecting off it. I even called a friend who also lives in a high-rise and he saw it too. This was at 9:15 pm on Aug 25,2005. It eventually was covered by dark clouds from below.

Thank you to the eyewitness for the report.

Ucluelet, B.C. (Kennedy Lake) Objects, Burns And Unexplained Marks

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: Mid August Time: 3:20 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 2 Number of objects: 2 Shape of objects: Two were different, one larger white, other green flashing.

Full Description of event/sighting: My friend called my attention to the sky South of us, where a bright white round object could be very clearly seen at least several times wider than the brightest object in the sky. A second light flashed intermittently white and lime green flashing about each 5-6 seconds for 2-3 seconds per flash. I am a trained military observer having been in the 748th communications troop in the Armed Forces of Canada.

This was not the usual aircraft flashing green starboard light, as it was lime green, and moved like it was suspended below the above much brighter white object. The white object moved in a shallow U shape arc dipping downward then upward, and about twenty seconds and three flashes of the lower object after we started to watch it, it grew much brighter and the seemed to pan the cosmos like a motorcycle headlight through the fog. (Sky was extremely clear and we were 30 km from nearest light source or town of Ucluelet.)

The light panned from Southwest to West and then straight over the beach we were camped on and illuminated the entire North shore of the lake. It was so bright it seemed a huge camera flash had gone off. We both were very excited and later somewhat frightened.the objects then continued in a slow arc upward and then suddenly sped away in in a Northeasterly upward arc increasing to extremely relative high speed and decreased in brightness and were finally not visible having been observed for 45-60 seconds. the lower object was seen to flash about seven to eight times and followed the identical arc as the above object, and the two object were about 5-6 times the widths of a full moon apart.

My friend and I were very excited, perplexed, frightened and had a hard time falling asleep. I asked immediately what time it was as I wasn't wearing a watch, and it was 3:20 a.m. I awoke the next day and the first thought through my head was what the hell did I see last night. I also had no doubt then, whatsoever, that we are not the most intelligent species here in the Universe. It deeply effected me. It also troubled my friend and we told others that had been asleep at the time and camped nearby what we had seen. My mom is quite conservative, yet I phoned and told her and told her what I had seen, having no doubt what I had seen and not caring what my mother would think of my telling her what I saw. (I'm 40 years old).

We told many people and two days afterward someone came to the beach and said it had been on CNN and was reported in Port Alberni and was also seen in some other country.

We had no campfire that night and were just about ready to sleep when we saw the objects. My friend was not himself after for two weeks, being very aggressive and not his usual passive self. I was not acting like myself afterwards and damn near got myself in trouble with my sort of "end of the world" attitude.

I noticed that I had a burn on my right calf on the inside and my friend had several unexplained marks on his legs. It has been two months and my leg hasn't healed completely. Other injuries I have gotten in the bush that were worse healed in less than two weeks.

I had thought it strange that when I asked my friend the time, it 3:20 because we both had to work the next morning and I was sure we retired to our sleeping bags just after midnight and had seen the objects within fifteen to twenty minutes of laying down.

We pick edible Chanterelle mushrooms at Kennedy Lake and were not drunk or altered in consciousness in any way at the time.

I still can't understand why it was so late and where the burn came from as we wanted to get to sleep early and didn't build a fire after arriving at the lake at midnight.

When we heard the object was witnessed by others and was on TV we were both very excited and almost relieved to have the whole thing validated by someone else's observations. I think it was the 14th or 15th of August.

Thank you to the witness for this amazing report.

Pointe-Des-Cascades Quebec Flying Object Lands

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: Late Summer (2005?) Time: Approx: 6:30 pm

Hi Brian, I'm really glad you wrote back I didn't expect a response since I thought the site was more of a blog than anything else. It's ironic that I read your email just now as I have just finished watching a do*****entary on the Discovery Channel about Area 51. Very Interesting, it dealt more with cases being tried in court on behalf of former workers at the site. The workers were exposed to highly toxic chemicals while burning wreckage from crash test aircraft in the 60's and 70's such as U2 spy planes etc. Some of these workers died and their family was given no recognition or compensation for their spouses having died doing a government job.

nyway back to the UFO incident I have a very rough picture of the original picture snapped with a digital camera just a few days ago. My sister is good friends not only with the witness who took the picture that I have seen but her boyfriend is also good friends with other 1st hand witnesses who were at the restaurant. I will try to get him to contact these people and see what they have to say. I got some more information on the incident and found out that the location of the restaurant is in Pointe-des-Cascades Qc. if I am not mistaken (it's called sunnies restaurant). Apparently there were people there with video cameras as well.

I was trying to attach the picture of the picture that I have but I can't seem to find it on my computer at the moment which is ironically inconvenient but if you have msn messenger you can add this address and see a smaller version of it while chatting to me. Like I described in my previous correspondence the incident occurred around 6:30 pm in the late summer of this year hence the photo has the appearance of being taken during the sunset. Furthermore this is a pic of a pic hence it is fairly dark and the shape of the top of the shuttle on a flatbed it derisible but not much else. My sister's good friend who has the original pic says that the name of the flatbed company who towed it is visible in the picture hence perhaps you could inquire as to what the deal is with this situation through them once I get a hold of that info.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Port Au Port Peninsula, Newfoundland Ball Had A Blueish Radiant Aura

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 4-5th, 2005 Time: 11:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Ball of light.

Full Description of event/sighting: The first sighting was during a campfire at Picadillly Park on the Port au Port Peninsula located on the west coast of Newfoundland, where my wife, her sister and I were camping. Looking up, I thought I saw a regular satellite, streaming across the SW section of the sky. I was alarmed suddenly, because when I looked closer, I could almost make out the shape of the 'satellite' with my naked eye. The white "ball" had a blue-ish radiant aura surrounding it. I quickly pointed it out to the woman watching and we observed it cross overhead, appearing to gain in size by about 50% until stopping completely among the constellations directly overhead. Still a large white ball, (approx: 3 times the size of Venus) It began to get smaller and smaller while moving ever so much to the right. It appeared to be getting further and further away. The woman watching this and I then had a contest to see who could see it the longest, until just as small as the most perceptible star it was gone. The size of a pin prick in the sky, faint and pale then gone. What was that? Surely, not the satellite we initially believed.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Port Alberni, British Columbia Circular Object Filmed

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 15, 2005 Time: 7:30 p.m.

HBCC UFO Research Note: I haven't typed up the report on this sighting in Port Alberni, B.C. as of yet, but I will soon. I found out about the UFO sighting through a friend who works at one of our local stores here in town. They told me that an entire family watched, and video taped a strange object and that Global TV had done and interview with the family and ran the footage. So to start with, I thought I would place a short audio clip to the site of the young girl telling in her words what she witnessed. She was such a delightful child to speak with, I also spoke with the Mother and Father who explained the events also.

Port Alberni, British Columbia Circular Object Filmed. Short audio clips and TV news will be added later.

Thank you to the young girl for the great description of the object.

Toronto, Ontario Object Was Two Dimensional & Hair-Line Flat

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 19, 2005 Time: 1:10 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Large black two dimensional elongated (width wise) kite.

Full Description of event/sighting: Happened Friday, August 19, 2005 at approximately 1:10 p.m. It was large black kite shaped. It was two dimensional. I was in a building on Bloor Street at St. George in Toronto when I looked out the window and saw this massive thing. From about 2-3 kms away, it was above the office towers in downtown Toronto. It was so big. I just suddenly noticed it.

It would be a very large object, as a plane looks rather small in the air from a distance. I watched it float with the flat surface facing me. It slowly floated upwards and then turned on it's side - which is what shocked me. The object was two dimensional and hair-line flat. When it went sideways the thin black line glinted somewhat in the sun. The object then went higher I believe in that position. I lost sight of it as it went to the top of the window and out of view. I was at a conference literally being introduced to speak, so I could not go outside and confirm my sighting. I want to know what I saw. I'm a lawyer and very logical and reasonable. I believe somewhat in spirituality etc., and maybe other beings. But there was nothing on the news, in the papers, or on the net. I searched for kite competitions in the area - but this was too large, too high and too smooth. Did anyone else in/around Toronto see this ?

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Battleford, Saskatchewan Another Orange Colored Light

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 20, 2005 Time: 11:58 p.m.

This past Saturday, August 20, 2005, at 11:58 pm on our way home, we witnessed the same kind of bright light on the south western part of the sky, this one was higher and it dimmed out. I had to drive, and my daughter lost sight of the orange shape as she didn't have her glasses on that evening. I keep my eye out, no explanation.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Pitt Meadows/ Maple Ridge, B.C. Silvery Reflective Globe

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 21, 2005 Time: Daytime sighting

Hey Brian, Thought you might be interested in MY sighting a few days ago.

The family and I were returning home from a family thing this past Sunday (August 21). We were just crossing over the Pitt River Bridge, when I saw to the North, right beside the mountains a small silvery reflective...globe? round object? It was pretty far away. I kept my eye on it as we took the backroads home; I was able to see it for at LEAST five minutes. It hovered, never moving; it certainly wasn’t a plane heading for us as we changed direction and would have seen it. It just hovered there as I watched it.

Right before the tall trees came up to block my vision, it was almost as though the object was turning and showing its red side. I couldn't make it out clearer as the trees blocked my vision and when I could see past the trees again, it was gone.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

North Surrey, British Columbia Object Looked Like A Pearl & Very Shiny

Posted: January 11, 2008

Date: August 22, 2005 Time: 12 noon + - ten min

Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Round.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian, my wife and I were having lunch and looking out the window. Sky was covered with *****ulus clouds with many blue areas. I was watching a small plane flying east just below the clouds and spotted a small shiny round object also flying east high above the clouds. Object looked just like a pearl, very shiny and beautiful. Would have been approx:. !/4 inch. in diameter if held at arms length. Speed looked comparable to the plane but with the difference in altitude must have been many times faster. It was insight for only a second or two before flying behind the clouds. I told my wife and pointed out where I last saw it and we waited to see if it crossed the next clear spot but it never reappeared.

Thank you to the witness for the report.
