Date: December 15, 2004 Time of Sighting: 4:50 p.m. +/- 10 min.
Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Unknown, flashing light only.
Full Description of event/sighting: Hi, Brian. I thought I'd report this, even though I'm pretty sure there could be a "reasonable" explanation for it. I'm always sure to check the skies at red lights, in slow traffic, etc, to see if anything interesting is going on. Well, on my drive home (traveling south on Terwillager Drive, in south Edmonton), I noticed a plane traveling what seemed to be NWW. It looked like a pretty standard passenger jet, but I couldn't make out any details, save for it's lights.
However, as it was passing in front of a fairly large cloud (there were few clouds in the sky at this time), a seemingly stationary light, approximately 3-5 plane-lengths above the plane, and much smaller than the visible lights of the plane, flashed 5 or 6 times. The light was very bright, and noticeable, but small (like it was smaller, but had more output). I could not see anything in its place when it flashed "off," and could see nothing after the plane had moved further on its course. Is it standard procedure for aircraft to "flash" each other like this when they're flying in each others' airspace? Perhaps you've determined the cause of similar events. If you have, please let me know. Thanks.
Thank you to the witness for the report.

Telkwa, British Columbia Elongated Bright Craft
Posted: January 1, 2008
Date: December 11, 2004 Time: 8:45 a.m.
I returned the witnesses call the following day that he had the sighting and he went on to explain what is was he witnessed early that morning on December 11, 2004.
The fellow said he had just woken up and looked out his bedroom window which faces Tyhee Lake and could see the sun had already been up for a short time. The clouds that were in the sky were lit up the different colors of orange and pinks which gave a spectacular view for him. He then noticed underneath the clouds an extremely bright light which looked out of the norm, so he watched. Seeing it was strange looking, he called to his wife who was still in bed to come and look at this weird sight.
As he observed the object he started thinking it was maybe a jet aircraft and the sun was shinning on it which made it appear alot brighter than it should have been. The witness thought quickly and went and grabbed his binoculars which would enable him to get a much better view of this craft.
Now looking through the binoculars he determined it certainly wasn't a jet, although he did say it was hard to see what it was as he still wasn't able to define any features to it other than this elongated bright light.
The man was able to watch and film the object for approximately 5 minutes before it dropped out of sight due to one of the local mountains blocking his view of it. He described the object as being elongated as for it's shape, or like a long cigar. Plus it was much brighter than the clouds which had the sun shinning on them. The witness said you can clearly see that the object is much lower and underneath the clouds that were present that day.
I will be going out to visit the gentleman to have a look at the video footage.
Thank you to the witness for this report.

Telkwa, British Columbia Dark Object With Bright Trail Following
Posted: January 1, 2008
Date: December 16, 2004 Time: 11:00 p.m.
I returned a telephone call to a gentleman by the name of Gordon as he wanted to report what he witnessed on December 16, 2004 at 11:00 p.m. out of Telkwa, B.C. Actually Gordon was one of many witnesses who reported an amazing object that flew low through the Bulkley Valley back on July 29, 2003. That case turned out to be a major story both for myself and the newspaper out of Smithers, B.C.
Anyway, on December 16, 2004 Gordon was outside at his home looking up when he spotted what appeared to be a long narrow tail of light which had some color to it coming from the north. At the front of the tail he was able to see a large dark object with this tail following behind heading towards the south. He reason why he was able to see the dark object was due to the brightness of the starlit night and the dark object passing in front of the heavens.
As he watched the object, which moved extremely fast he was able to observe it disappear or burn out somewhere roughly over the Houston area he figures. The total amount of time for this sighting was approximately 2 to 3 seconds at tops.
Gordon took a "guess" as to the altitude of the object, he felt it was rather high up, maybe some where's in the neighborhood of where the commercial airlines would fly. He also mentioned that the object traveled horizontally.
Thank you to Gordon for this report.

Montreal, North Quebec 3 Colored Beams Flashing
Posted: January 1, 2008
Date: December 17, 2004 Time: 5:00 a.m.
Hi...my name is (name removed) from Montreal, North Quebec, I am presently seeing 3 colored beams flashing towards the sky from my apartment window...they must be no further than 5 km away, I cannot see from where the beams start as there houses that are in the way, but I a can notice that the base of the beam is pretty intense. The brightest beam is yellow and flashes pretty strait up in sky. There are about 3 other colored beams on the right and left of the bright yellow beam, but they are less brighter.
There is a blue and green and maybe a faded red. I have never seen anything like this before especially that bright, and straight up motionless..and have never seen anything in that direction like that either. This is the first time. I doubt it would be some kind of publicity or attraction light because earlier in the evening there was no lights there and its 5:00 a.m. No use to publicize anything in sky at this time.....anyways....just felt I needed to report this unusual sighting.....very strange....please keep me posted if you might have any clue or need any additional help from me.
Thank you to the witness for the report.

Edmonton, Alberta UFO An Elongated Object
Posted: January 1, 2008
Date: December 21, 2004 Time: 5:18 pm.
Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: hexagonal, similar to this shape from NIDS (2nd diagram from http://www.nidsci.org/articles/8_25trireport.php)
Full Description of event/sighting: I was driving home on 114 St., in slow rush hour traffic and noticed a bright light in the sky directly ahead and to the left of the direction I was driving (around 10-15 degrees). It was around 5:15 at this point. It looked to be a star at first, but this was impossible, as the moon/stars/sky were covered by a thin cloud layer. At a stop light, I was able to tell that it was moving by judging its position against trees/lampposts. As it got closer I could see 3 lights, not just 1: 1 large one in the center, 2 smaller/dimmer ones to each side, equidistant from the center. At this point I decided it was a plane, as the lights looked familiar.
However, by 5:18, a few blocks further south I could see it more clearly, and figure out how close it was more accurately. What immediately struck me was how slow it was moving. It seemed to be at 50-100 meters altitude. If this is how high it really was, it seemed to be traveling at 10-20 kph.
This fact, along with the amount of lights (6-8 were now visible, giving off white/pink/orange colours), leads me to believe that it was not a plane or the local police helicopter. As it was moving in the opposite direction that I was, I did not have enough time to memorize exactly how many lights there were or how they were positioned, but they gave the impression of an object of a similar (but more elongated) shape to the one in the NIDS report on "flying triangles." At no point was a "fuselage" or any visible body visible.
Thank you to the witness for the report.

Burnaby, B. C. Six Objects
Posted: January 1, 2008
Date: December 22, 2004 Time: 4:39 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Katkam's west-south-west toward English Bay or south-west at the Burrard Bridge and Vancouver's West Side. Number of objects: 6 Shape of objects: Rods
Full Description of event/sighting: Hi, Brian Vike. I was watching Katkam's webcam when I noticed huge objects in the sky. I used lot of enhancement and I believe it shows 6 rods in the vicinity of downtown Vancouver and south Vancouver.
The first pair are almost 4 kilometers from the webcam but they must be at lease a kilometer long to be noticed. The next pair are on upper right corner and they are very much rods (after enhancement they seem to have curved lines around the objects). I have used Photoshop to get pictures enhanced and I can send the pictures that were taken in 2 minutes intervals, but what should up was at 16:39. The picture taken at 16:37 and 16:41 doesn't show any object in sky not even a plane nor any bird.
I can send these pictures plus the enhancements.
Thank you,
Thank you to the witness for the report.
