A Triangular Shaped Craft/UFO Massena New York's St. Lawrence County NY

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Witness referring to report link below. (Approximately 1989 - maybe a year or two off)

Time:  Approximately 2:00 a.m.

I was recently speaking with a coworker about an object a friend and I had seen when we were in 7th or 8th grade, when I decided to look for other UFO stories in the area where used to live. I was specifically looking for a news blurb that ran in the Watertown Daily Times from the same summer as my experience, but no luck. I did find a good story on your site though.

While the timing is off by a year or two the craft shape is very similar to what we experienced. I guess maybe I should share my story with you, as increased knowledge will help us discover what exactly the anomalous objects are, and why we tend to be so fascinated with them.

So Here's My Story:

In the Summer leading up to 7th or 8th grade I was asked to watch some tents for my church's Vacation Bible School. These tents were set up for a week or so in one location, and each night several persons were charged with watching over them, just in case. This night it was my friend's father, my friend, and myself. While his father slept we stayed up until about 2:00 in the morning playing ping pong in the Rec hall. I think we may have dented the last ball which is why we decided to head outside.

We left building to hear a low hum, and as we looked back over our shoulders towards the church we saw a triangular shaped object with several colored lights drifting about 100 feet above us. The path seemed wrong, as this would have meant the craft traveled through the church's structure, and would continue into the side of a 10 story "retirement" complex, if its path was extrapolated backwards and forwards in a straight line. It appeared to be moving in a west to east track, with a slight southward drift. It did avoid the high-rise but it didn't make any sort of turn on an y-x axis or roll a turn like a conventional aircraft.

As we looked upwards at the object it had a yellowish tint to it with several lights including red ones along the bottom. As it passed directly over us, it also emitted an odd red "smoke" that didn't dissipate as say, a campfire's smoke would. It kind of spread out and phased away, like a cheesy special effect. My friend and I must have watched it for about 5-10 minutes as it slowly slipped by, without doing anything really except for the odd puff of smoke out the back.

The next day I told my mom, and both of our respective parents made some comments about staying up all night and drinking Mountain Dew. Nothing much was said about that for a while, but a few weeks later, my mom did inform me of a small blurb that appeared in the Watertown Daily Times. In the article a woman reported seeing basically the same object (she thought the craft had yellow lights, not a yellow coloration) near the southern end of the state (I want to say around Long Island.) I haven't seen the article since I read it at the library, and I'm guessing it was an AP wire space filler for a small local paper.

Here's something about geography of the region where we were- Massena is one of the bigger towns (at 10k people roughly) in New York's St. Lawrence county, the largest county size wise. The areas outside of the towns are fairly barren, woods, dairy farms, low density housing, etc. To the south are the Adirondack mountains, SW of Massena is Fort Drum, and to the east was Plattsburgh Air Force base, to the north is the St. Lawrence river and then Canada. The town sits about equal driving times from both Ottawa, Ontario and Montreal, Quebec.

Thanks for reading this, I'll try to provide more details if I can, but I don't want to speculate much more. I really should have written this incident down when it was fresh in my mind.

Thank you to the witness for this amazing report of the triangular shaped craft. There are some very interesting things that area mentioned in this report.

A Huge Ball Of Glowing Reddish Matter Over Marshfield Missouri

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 7, 2006

Time:  Approximately 10:15 p.m.

Location of Sighting: South of our house, facing north view.

Number of witnesses: 0
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was outside star gazing in our back yard at about 9:45 with my mom. My mom went inside to see the 10:00 pm news, so I stayed outside.

At about 10:15 I had seen a huge ball of glowing reddish matter. If you held up a dime in the night time sky that's how big it would have been. It was about 1-2 miles from me.

Moving above distant tree tops. It moved very fast, and did not blink. That's how I knew it wasn't an airplane. I watched for about 5 seconds as it crossed the southern sky. Then I ran inside to tell my mom about it. By the time I got her back outside it was gone.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Bright White Sphere Shot Down The Valley Markham Ontario

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  August 4, 1977

Time:  11:45 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Markham, Ontario Canada.

Number of witnesses: 5
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: White sphere.

Full Description of event/sighting: Brian, I was listening to the Rense show from last week and I realized that I had a sighting later the same night that Paul I believe his name was had the West Hill sighting.

I lived in Markham due north of West Hill about 10 miles. I really did not see as much as I physically experienced. I and 4 friends were going home from the Roxy movie theatre after watching the 7:00 p.m. movie, and it had just become dark.

I decided to cut through the ravine next to the main street Highway 48 going south toward Highway 7, also known as Wellington Street. As I was walking on the path I saw what looked like a motorcycle headlight except very bright down the ravine as I was making my way alone along the path.

My friends were all walking the long way around as they were too freaked out to cut through the ravine at night. On the path there was a pair of posts, like the old cable guard rail posts from a highway guard rail with a chain across. I knew this was there and was very careful in the dark to find it and carefully step over.

About 10 feet past the chain is where I noticed the light down the valley (ravine). I remember looking at the light for about 2 seconds, and then I found myself on my face on the trail, as I got up there were leaves falling from the trees that I could make out in the darkness, I could just see them.

The light was gone, I quickly made my way up to the highway and my friends were not there so I ran in the direction that they would have travelled and found them behind the beer store.

They were a little shaken and when I finally got them to tell me what they had seen, they said a white meteor had come straight up the ravine just about tree top level. I asked them where it hit, they told me it didn't. It just kept going really fast.

I don't know if this in any way corroborates Paul's story but I never forgot Thursday the 4th August 1977.

Thank you to the witness for the very interesting report.

Hysterical Witness To Massive Glowing Purple Oval/UFO Manchester New Hampshire

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date of Sighting: Mid October 1977.

Time of Sighting: Approximately 11:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: West of Manchester, NH on Rte 101

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Oval shaped tipped vertical

Full Description of event/sighting: I am a musician and was going home to Nashua from a job playing at the Deerfield Fair with one of my band mates and another friend. It was pretty cold that night and the air was clear.

As we were driving west on Rte. 101 I noticed a large object in the sky moving slowly from north to south. I pointed it out to my companions and we pulled over and got out of the car to get a better look.

When we stopped, the object stopped moving. It appeared to be at least a mile or two away and was very large, about the size of a silver dollar held at arm's length. It was at about 10 o'clock from the horizon. It was an elongated oval  shape and perpendicular to the ground.

I seemed to have a bump on one side. The object was glowing purple and the raised area was glowing red. There were two rows of orange or yellow lights on the oval part that were flashing in opposite directions around the oval. The overall shape reminded me of one of those children's tops with the lever that you push up and down to make it spin except slightly flatter and on its side.

We watched the object for about 10-15 minutes as it hung there in the sky.

While we were stopped, someone in a pickup truck stopped and asked if we needed help. We explained what we were doing. He had a CB radio in his truck and I could hear other people on the CB chattering about the object. He looked with us for a minute or two and left. We finally decided to go ourselves as the object was just hanging there. When we started moving the object continued moving slowly south and eventually passed from view. It moved a little slower than an airplane and seemed to move at a steady speed.

When we got back to Nashua my band mate's girlfriend was waiting up for us. She was nearly hysterical. She had been out at a dance class and on her way home had apparently encountered the same object except that it was directly overhead and low to the ground. She said that it covered the whole sky.

Surprisingly or perhaps not, there was nothing about this in any of the local papers even though there were many, perhaps hundreds of witnesses.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

A Metallic Spherical Object/UFO Over Magallanes Bridge Manila Philippines

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  October - November 2006

Time:  8:00 - 9:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Magallanes Bridge, Manila, Philippines.

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

Full Description of event/sighting: I was on a bus when I saw a metallic spherical object floating in the sky. It looks stationary and was just about at the side of a building. When the bus got to the bridge the object was covered from sight by the building.

After we passed the bridge I looked backed again to where I saw it and the metallic object was gone. I'm sure that it was not a plane because its spherical and it was not moving. It also looks like it was very close to the building.

Triangular In Shape With 3 Red Lights Lynchburg Virginia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February 23, 2007

Time:  7:30 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

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

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

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

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Fiery Apparition Was A Sheet Of Orange Flames At Los Angeles California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: April 1970

Time: 9:00 am.

Location: Los Angele, California.

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Fiery apparition.

One Saturday morning when I was 13 years old, I was walking with my brother and sister down Beverly Boulevard in Los Angeles. We were bored, and headed to no place in particular. The weather was sunny. Traffic was heavy on the street.

We came upon the old building that was three stories tall and 150 feet wide. It seemed to be five office suites joined together. Between the building and the boulevard was a concrete sidewalk. Visitors normally parked on the curb, or parked their cars behind the building (instead of in front of it, as with today’s strip malls). On this morning there were no cars parked in the street, but there was a lot of traffic whooshing by. (Beverly Boulevard is a main thoroughfare.)

All the windows of the building had been painted over, and there was no lettering or signs on it anywhere. It seemed abandoned. As I walked down the sidewalk with my brother and sister, I pulled on the handle of the front door of each office suite, just goofing around. The first two doors were locked, but the third was unlocked.

Opening the door, I stepped inside, followed by my brother and sister, and stood in an empty room that was thirty feet wide and twenty feet deep. On the back wall (opposite the front door) was a stairway with a banister that ran diagonally up the wall. At the top of the stairway was an opening to a second-story hallway that led farther back into the building. The room was silent. We could hear traffic in the boulevard outside.

I looked around at the empty room, wondering what the place had been used for, when my sister said, “What’s that?”

At the top of the stairway was a “devil face,” three feet tall, and floating in midair, a giant face with no body. It was a sheet of orange flames, and seemed to be staring at us with demonic eyes and a smiling mouth.

It started down the diagonal stairway, moving sideways, continuing to face toward us, rocking side to side as it descended. At no time did it make any sound. My siblings and I watched it for a few seconds, stupefied. Then we fled the building and ran all the way home.

Five years later I returned to that same building, curious to find out what happened, but the door was locked. (By that time I was living in Phoenix, but I often returned to Los Angeles to visit friends.) Five years after that, I returned once more, and once again the doors were all locked. In 1990, I returned yet again, but the entire structure had been torn down.

In 1990 (twenty years after the experience) I asked my brother and sister about the apparition, but they claimed to have no memory of it. (?) We were not dreaming. This happened 37 years ago, but I still think about it from time to time, trying to make sense of it.

Glowing Orange V Formation Over Lincoln Nebraska

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  November 30, 2007

Time:  8:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Over house going north to south.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: V shaped.

Full Description of event/sighting: Going north to south, looked like black shapes, like the V of a flock of birds with diagonal bird like shapes forming lines behind it. 

Glowing orange came from the black "bird like shapes". The diagonal lines changed to scattered, then back to diagonals. The glowing faint orange looked like the orange from the interstate lights, but almost see-through. 

I thought it was a cloud I could see at night, but realized it wasn't. There were no clouds that night and the glow was reflecting off of the black objects in the form. It was quite a ways above the tree line, probably 20,000 feet or so. 

It was hard to tell without points of reference. I was outside sitting in my hot-tub looking up at the sky. If I hadn't have been starting at the sky, I probably wouldn't have noticed it. Very strange.

Thank you to the witness for the interesting sighting report.

A Large Craft/UFO Makes A U Turn Over Lincoln Nebraska

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: October 10, 2007

Time:  Approximately 8:30 p.m.

Hello Brian, we witnessed a strange sight on the above referenced date and were wondering if anyone else reported seeing this. We haven't a clue what it was that we saw. 

I can only describe it as a very large aircraft, no lights, no sound, faint, but visible against the night sky. Imagine a boomerang shape, but smoothed out at the curve. 

It flew north for a few seconds, then made far too sharp of a turn-around for a normal aircraft, and continued back to the south. 

We lost track of it after that.  It was visible to us for about 2-3 minutes. There were 4 of us who saw it and this took place in the near-south neighborhood. 

Any insights you may have on this would be greatly appreciated.  Are there military aircraft in the area that would fit this description that you are aware of?

Looking forward to your thoughts on the matter! Thanks!

Thank you to Scott H. Colborn - Host of the "Exploring Unexplained Phenomena" for sending along this report.

A Black Chevron Shaped Craft/UFO Flying Over Las Vegas Nevada (Photo)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

 Hello Brian, I've sent you a sighting before from Las Vegas. I just thought you'd be interested in seeing this picture. I take photos of planes spraying, always hoping to catch other things. I did not see this when taking the photo and it's the only thing out of a whole roll that had anything 'else' in it.

Maybe with all the photos you get, you might have seen something like this before, I haven't. It reminds me of the 'thing' a bit, only bent.

PS - I sure hope this is the right picture, should be a black chevron shaped thing in it. I've been having a hell of a time trying to get this to you. My pc went down and now it doesn't work the same as before for pictures.

It's amazing the life out there. Thank you.

A Red/Orange Glowing Ball Of Light In The Sky Over Southeast Iowa

New Sighting Report !

Date:  Early January 2021

Time:  Evening.

A few nights ago, as I was taking my dog outside waiting for her to finish her job, I noticed this red/orange glowing ball.

It was traveling from east to west, no sound and watched it until it disappeared behind the western clouds. It appeared about the size of a large orange, but have no idea how far away it was. 

We live in Southeast Iowa and was surprised that a number of folks have seen something similar.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Dark Triangular Craft/UFO Langford British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February  Approximately year 1999

Time:  Approximately 1:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Langford BC from our backyard.

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

Full Description of event/sighting: Sorry to be fuzzy on the exact date but it was along time ago and after our encounter we came into the house and each drew our rendition of what we saw. I'm in the process of looking for our drawings from that night. The reason we were out in the yard at that hour was it was supposed to be one of the best nights in decades to see meteor showers.

We weren't disappointed and had some long colorful shooting stars fill up the sky as we laid on sleeping bags in our backyard (actually on the driveway for the clearest view). My husband was getting frustrated because he kept missing the awesome ones I was seeing because he had been looking the other way.

This went on a few times until finally he said tell me exactly where you're looking and I'll look there too. All of a sudden from our far left (east facing direction) we saw a dark shape in the sky. It was a triangle of sorts with a bit of a curve to the shape. Our two drawings did not totally match the outer shape but the body.

What did match was the fact that there were perfectly round holes going across the body of this thing in rows. The object was black but the holes looked even darker in color, it moved quite slowly straight across the sky and made no noise what-so-ever. We both exclaimed, "what the heck is that" and watched it go across our sight line and disappear behind the roof of the house.

We probably watched it for about 10 seconds and were not able to figure out how high it was or how big it was because there was nothing to compare it too. If there had been a sound it might have helped us gauge how high up it was. If it was a toy of some kind it still would have made a sound. We were completely blown away and happy that both of us had seen because we knew no one would believe it.

I called our local observatory the following day hoping others had seen it and there was an explanation but they politely told me to chalk it up to a unique experience. We've never forgotten this and have never seen anything else unusual in our lives, but reading an article on you in our local paper today and seeing the reference to a triangle object made me want to write and share our story. It would sure be nice to know what this thing was. Take care and thanks for letting me share.

Thank you to the witness for the excellent report.

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

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Around 1988

Time:  Approximately 10:00 p.m.

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

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

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

Saucer Shaped Craft/UFO And Strange Creature La Crescenta California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Late 1975

Time:  Approximately 4:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 6

Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Thick saucer shaped.

Full Description of event/sighting: This is mostly in regards of the 1975 sighting/screams in Thousand Oaks, Ca. La Crescenta is about forty miles south, and only about five or six miles from Jet Propulsion Laboratories, which is in Pasadena Ca.

I do not if these experiences have any bearing on the family from Thousand Oaks, but here it is:

I had a friend over the house late in 1975. I was sixteen years old at the time, and we were outside talking, and looking at a baseball game in progress across the street at the park. The weather was clear, plenty of daylight left.  Although honestly I did not see this saucer shape appear, It was suddenly there, hovering over the sky to the North of us. It is difficult for me to tell exactly how high, or far away it was, but the UFO appeared huge. 

Excuse me, I mean HUGE!  It stayed in the air for some time, as we had time to observe it, I had time to run into the house and get my mother, brother, and father to come out and look at it.  It was hovering over the park, between us and JPL. I remember that it had some lights on the side, rotating around the surface of the craft. 

It hung in the air, but was not totally motionless, as though it kept trying to stabilize itself, kind of like it was on a gyro that wasn't functioning properly. It stayed around for about two or three minutes, than tilted and then left the area at a high rate of speed. Aside from the aforementioned witnesses, I am not sure that anyone else had seen the object.

Now, concerning the screaming that the folks in Thousand Oaks that happened around the same time:

We had some incidences of screaming around here about that time, also. If memory serves correctly, it was just before the above mentioned sighting. Crescenta valley is in a bowl shaped area, created by the mountains to the north of Burbank, Ca. and the Angeles crest forest north of that. 

We lived pretty much at the base of the Burbank mountain. There is an aqueduct that was cut out in the early seventies, for flood control. Across the flood control (which was fenced off) lies the Crescenta Valley Park, which is directly across the street from my parents house. There are night baseball games (little league) and lights in the park.

It was dark, not too late at night, and some friends and I were sneaking a cigarette in the park, next to the flood control trench when we heard a god-awful scream which reverberated off of the hill, neither animal nor human, but it would be more to the animal side of noise. The three of us about jumped out of our skins, and were trying to see across the trench as to what could have made that particular noise.

It may be important to note that the lights of the baseball field had a hard time penetrating this far towards the trench to the hills, and we could not see where it had emanated from. We were in the midst of discussing what had caused the ruckus, and noticed some spectators from the game wandering over towards the trench, kind of angling away from us, so I knew we were not the only ones to hear it. After awhile, these folks left back to the game.

Some time later, as we were still standing around, discussing the incident, we heard another scream across the trench. This time, we witnessed the strangest sight. What it appeared to be was some kind of kangaroo/Chupacabra looking animal about fifty yards away, towards the base of the hill.  It had to have been at least seven or eight feet tall, we could see its legs and tail fine, but it was kind of hard to see a face, as it fell within some shadows of light off the baseball field. 

We looked at it, it looked at us, and I really thought some guy rented a Halloween suit and was playing tricks on people. Our minds were changed however, when it ran away.  It took off going from zero to about forty miles an hour in an instant.  And it went straight into the hills. Straight up the hill. We couldn't follow it for long, but were able to kind of keep track of it by all of the noise it created beating through the brush. I still think of this from time to time, and a kangaroo keeps coming to mind.

As a side note, when I was stationed in the army in Germany, we were on patrol one night in the Black Forest region, late at night, on a small game trail when the whole squad heard a scream which echoed all over the place.  No kidding, the hair on my arms stood up. 

As we only had blanks for our rifles, we turned around and hightailed it out of there.  Here's the extra weird thing, across the animal trail that we had passed not five minutes before, there was a huge tree covering the trail.  Needless to say, nobody ran around it, we had so much adrenalin flowing we pretty much climbed/jumped the fallen tree, and pretty much ran all of the way back to the area of operation.

Thank you to the witness for the fascinating report.

F4-Phantom Weapons Control Technicians In The USAF Spot Three Oval UFOs Report/Telephone Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

You can listen to the telephone interview I did with one of the eyewitnesses at this link: https://jmp.sh/U9Iy3Yc

Date: August 1978 Time: 5:30 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of objects: 3

Shape of objects: Oval.

Full Description of event/sighting: Driving from home in Wrightwood, CA to work at George AFB in a 2-door sedan with 2 co-workers eastbound on Hwy 18 between Sheep Creek Rd and Hwy 395 near Phelan, CA.

Myself and other witnesses were F4-Phantom Weapons Control Technicians in the USAF. My eastbound view was of mountains on horizon with first glow of sunrise behind mountains.

Weather calm and completely clear. 1st large oval rises up from directly behind mountains due east from me.

Motion is slow, floating like a blimp or balloon. At first I thought it was a large blimp with a mirror-like exterior reflecting the sunlight (sun was below the eastern horizon during the entire encounter), object was extremely bright, yet had a distinct oval outline.

After rising a few degrees above mountains object stopped all motion. Total time to rise up was about 2 minutes. Second identical object then began to rise just to the left of the first object.

Second object moved identically to first, then stopped next to first at equal altitude. Third identical looking object then began to rise just to right of first object, at same slow rate, until it was at equal altitude with other 2 objects.

All three objects remained still for about 2 more minutes. Very curious sight at this time, but all witnesses still thought objects were blimps.

Right-most object then begins to rise slowly above others, stops completely, then moves from a complete stop to a point slightly above the horizon almost directly due south of us (visible out the right side of the car) in about 2 or 3 seconds then comes to a complete stop again.

No acceleration or deceleration was apparent. Middle object then does exactly the same, stopping next to the other above the southern horizon. Third object then repeats the same exact maneuver.

When all 3 were stopped hovering next to each other then all 3 objects slowly descended towards the ground until disappearing on the southern horizon.

Objects retained their extreme brightness throughout the entire encounter, even when in a position near the southern horizon where there was no sunlight to reflect in my direction.

All witnesses agreed with each other not to speak of the sighting due both to fear of ridicule, and due to the fact that all of us were under orders to speak of any potential UFO sightings only to our commanding officer (to my knowledge all AF personnel, including myself and the witnesses, at the time were required to sign a statement acknowledging the order upon enlisting in the AF).

Thank you to the witness for the report and for talking with me on the telephone.

Small Egg Shaped Object Travelled Up And Back Inside Massive UFO Kootenay Lake North Of Boswell British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Early 1960s

Time:  Approximately 2:00 a.m.

Four teens left Creston, B.C. for a camping trip along side of Kootenay Lake just North Of Boswell, BC for the weekend. The fellows arrived at their camping location at around 10:00 p.m., set up the tents/camp and wandered about the area for a couple of hours goofing around. 

Later on after chatting and watching the sky they shut things down for the night which was about 2:00 a.m. Just after they turned in a brilliant light caught everyone's attention (lit the entire area up) and the guys crawled out of their tents to watch  a large yellow/white globe (massive is size) descended and hovered over the lake at approximately 1000 feet, this happening directly out from their camp site.

A small bright egg shaped object came out of the bottom of the larger craft and descended to just over the lakes surface, and this to came to a hovering position.

From what the witness told me the egg shaped craft caused quite a disturbance on the water as it sat over the waters surface, although the teens were not able to see what it may have been doing, and they also were able to hear the sound of rushing water.

After approximately 20 to 30 seconds had past while watching this event, the smaller egg shaped craft traveled back up from where it came from, and back inside the large stationary globe.

Roughly ten seconds passed and the enormous globe traveled towards the north until they lost sight of it. Everyone was pretty scared and they all stayed awake that night, packed up their belongings and left for home early the next morning.

Did UFOs Cause The Burn Marks On Witnesses Home Kenosha County Wisconsin

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  December 7, 2005

Time:  6:30 p.m.

I adopted a rescued Havanese from a rescue group approximately 3 weeks ago. I sit out with him in the back yard trying to train him to do his duty outside.

About one week ago I saw something going across the sky south to north. It seemed longer then a plane and lights seemed to stretch the length of it. Mostly red lights. What I noticed was the extremely slow pace it went and there was no sound.  

Last night I was sitting facing east in the dark with Nate. I looked up at the stars and noticed nothing but the star in the east that is the brightest right now. Suddenly, and approximately directly under the north star, down a little I saw what appeared to be a string of lights again. No sound.

I would try and describe it as like a string bean or Chestnut tree whip with lights from one end to the other. Not straight, but rather bent back, maybe like a boomerang but with not as much bend, just curved slightly. 

As I looked up another appeared to the right and one to the left behind it. I just looked down at the dog and said "see ya" and went immediately in the house. I tried to get my daughter on the phone and then my son and one neighbor and finally got one to look outside and they saw nothing. I finally had the courage to look and saw nothing. then saw it towards the west almost straight up, as I went to tell the neighbor on the phone about it, I looked again it was gone.

They hover, not fly in any direction. The first and last appearances were separated by about an hour. They do not fly away, they simply disappear. I am hoping there is just something wrong with my eyes, but just had complete eye exam by Dr. (doctor's name removed).

After I went in the house after talking to neighbor the phone ran and all that was there was a noise like muffled helicopter blades, later I thought I heard that outside but figured I was just losing my mind. This morning the television will not go on, will have to check batteries, light in kitchen would not go on, will check bulb.

Curved slightly backwards string of lights and two or three times the size of a plane? No sound, hovers/fly's slow and silent. 

Additional Information:

Okay I finally remembered to take a picture of the burn marks on the garage from November 2005. They are right under the overhang and I cannot think of anything that would be that high up to make them. They have been there for two years - rain snow sleet hail. 

They were there the next morning after the first time I thought I saw the three UFOs.  The light on the wall directly opposite these marks in the house was also blown out, as was the television cable setup and during the evening the phone in the kitchen had rung and you could only hear what sounded like chopper blades whirling.

Thank you to the witness for the really interesting report.

Cylinder Shaped Craft/UFO Entirely Lit Up Kelowna British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  July 2, 2007

Time:  Approximately 11:00 p.m.

Hello Mr. Vike My name is (full name removed). I live on (removed) Road. Kelowna. On Monday night I was sitting on my front steps talking to my friend on the phone and saw something strange in the sky as well. This also may confirm the stories that my friend read in Fridays paper. Please feel free to call my at my home, so we can discuss this in better detail. Thank you for your time.

Brian Vike telephoned the witness on July 10, 2007 to see what other information I might be able to gather.

The witness tells me she had arrived home from a friends place and noticed another friend had left a message for her to call. The lady took her telephone outside as she was returning the call, plus having a cigarette.

As the two friends talked on the phone the witness noticed a long cylinder shaped light. Her first thoughts  were that she was just seeing an airplane, as she is close to where the flights fly directly overhead, but the woman went on to say the object was a little odd looking as it wasn't exactly on the normal flight path.

Plus there were not any of the normal NAV lights on this object. The entire craft was fully lit up. After approximately 3 or 4 minutes of viewing time it was gone, the witness said it was like someone turned off the light switch. (we are not sure if the craft moved quickly away from it's location, or with the lights out and due to the darkness the object just wasn't visible)

The object was stationary and not a sound was heard coming from it. It also wasn't sitting at a high altitude, lower than a small Cessna would fly at. Rather low she mentioned and there were also no flashing or blinking lights on it at all.

The lady mentioned to her friend on the telephone that possibly she may have just been witness to a UFO sighting. Both kidded around about what was seen and talked for a while longer then hung up.

On July 6, 2007 the witness gets a phone call from the same friend informing her about an newspaper article on UFO sightings that was reported in the local Kelowna newspaper. (Kelowna Capital News). This is when the lady decided to write an email to me asking if I would telephone her.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Triangle And Circular Shaped UFO Karnataka India

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  May 28, 2007

Time:  8.45 p.m. - 9.20 p.m.

Location of Sighting: on my home balcony (terrace)

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Shape of combined triangular and circular.

Full Description of event/sighting: Daily after my dinner, I used to walk on my home balcony (for digestion). My sister and I used to chat about science, politics, history and other subjects. On 28-05-2007 I alone was sitting on the balcony watching the sky.

That night the sky was filled with white clouds (milky colour). Suddenly a huge, bright strange thing appeared out of the cloud and started oscillating (right to left, and left to right) to particular distance for about 20 minutes. Interesting fact is that at that time a airplane was also passing near to that strange thing.

If I am not wrong, that was a Indian Airlines/Air India airplane.

I immediately went to ground floor to show this to my sister. She was sleeping at that time. I woke her and forcefully took her to balcony and showed that strange thing to my sister. After a while that strange thing moved far away and disappeared. 

I could not recognize the proper shape, because the strange thing was seen behind the cloud and the shape was somewhat a combination of triangle and circular.

Usually I used to discuss these astrophysical phenomenon with my friends. But my friends use to tease me saying that" you don't have any other work, other than watching sky". So this time I did not tell this to my friends.

But on 30-05-2007 I saw the news about this phenomena (which I saw on 28-05-2007) published in Dhina Thanthi (Tamil Daily Paper in India) on page 3. I did not know any web address about UFOs. Somehow I found this web address and I am mailing it so that any scientist may find useful to them.

Thank you to the witness for the report.
