Black Rotating Saucer Shaped UFO Hovering Over Ladysmith British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: June 1998 ?

Time: Approxamtlty 9:00 p.m.

Hello, I found your email on ufoinfo.com while reading a report in Cranbrook that happened some years ago. While the situation differs vastly from what I can recall from my own, it did cause me to mentally dig up what I've kept away for about 10 years Hopefully, you'll find it of some interest.

I was sitting in my bed reading the first Harry Potter book. It had only been published in Canada a few months prior, so this was several years before Pottermania had struck. I highly adored the books concept, and to think anything could draw my attention away from it, especially as a 9 year old child, would be unthinkable.

The reason I chanced to look out the window was to prevent myself from reading the entire book in a sitting, which was one of my unfortunate and expensive habits at the time. At that moment, I was scared to the point where my entire body locked up, due to the fact that a giant black rotating saucer was hovering about one and a half kilometers away, and about the same distance from the ground (maybe less).

It was nighttime, so the neighborhood lights obscured much of the detail of the underside of the craft, but I could tell from the jerky blurriness of the sides' lights that it was spinning.

A few seconds after this, the craft disappeared in a flash of light that only encompassed the area of where the craft had been spinning in the air. A line of light lasted a few moments and appeared to indicate the direction that the craft flew away to.

This occurred in Ladysmith, B.C., sometime during the month of June. It was about 9:00 p.m., and there were no cars driving around. The area that the UFO would have been directly above was an uninhabited provincial forested park that was also mountainous.

The most striking detail about the craft was that it was darker than the night sky, despite having small bright lights on its side and underbelly. The entire event lasted about 5 seconds, yet it left a lasting impression on my memory.

To this day, I can slow down the sequence of events in my mind and draw inferences from what I witnessed. I never came forward for fear of retribution, claims of insanity or attention seeking, but now I am simply curious if anyone else saw what I saw that night in June in 1998.

I read about a sighting in Prince George, B.C. that describes almost the exact same craft, except it takes place in 1969.

Any feedback is welcome.

Sincerely and painstakingly truthfully.

Thank you to the witness for a very interesting sighting report.

Large Spherical Silver Object/UFO Winnipeg Manitoba

This sighting report was never posted !

Date:  May 21, 2020

Time:  12:45 p.m.

I'm an ex-aerospace technologist and pilot. I spent 36+ years in the Canadian Air Force. So I consider myself to be an expert in anything that flies.

On 21 May, 2020 at 1245 hrs, while driving west on Route 100 I spotted a large spherical silver object (approximately 2m in diameter) hovering over Hwy 2 about 1 km from the intersection. It appeared to have an alt of about 500 to 800 feet AGL.

At first I thought it was a light aberration on my windshield so I re-positioned myself to use the side window and rule that out. The object remained.

I rolled down my window to get an unobstructed view. I was planning to pull over to get a photo. I changed lanes and when I looked back it was gone. In the time of 1 to 2 seconds it had completely vanished.

Even if it had been a Mylar balloon and just burst, it would have left visible falling debris. There was none.

I drove to the area under where I estimated it was and there was no human activity or visible debris in the area.

Hopefully you can link my data up to other reports.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Bright Orange Crescent Moon Sized UFO Between Midland And Sanford Michigan

This sighting report was never posted !

Date:  August 2020

Time:  Evening.

Hello, my name is (name removed) and I believe we have witnessed the same unknown phenomena. I live in Sanford, MI and I work in Midland, MI and I witnessed this on my way home from work.

My boyfriend was driving and we saw what looked like the crescent moon, but bright orange straight ahead of us. My stomach dropped when I saw it because I knew for a fact that the moon was directly behind us so I said, “what is that..”, my boyfriend said “the moon!” and I was like “that is NOT the moon”.

So I went on my astronomy app and showed him that there was nothing in front of us, no sun, no planets, just stars. Then, I pointed my phone behind us and there was the moon, exactly where I thought it was.

We stared at it in horror and the reason I didn’t take any pictures is because I was actually terrified and having an existential uncomfortable feeling. It was an actual crescent shape glowing bright orange with what appeared to be a thin cloud in front of it, cutting off 1/4 of the bottom of it.

It kind of looked like if a sunset was behind the night sky and somebody made a curved slit shaped like a crescent and the wound was showing an orange, glowing sunset behind it.

It was pretty low in the sky, but the same size as the moon. It drifted below the tree line as we were driving and then it was gone. I have scoured the internet trying to find any explanation there could be and I only found things like airglow (which would not have been vertical and even if you could see it from earth, it would be greenish blueish) and UFOs that bear no resemblance to a crescent shaped moon.

The only other account of this that I could find on the internet after searching for hours was yours.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Massive Rectangular UFO With Circle Of Lights Above Eyewitness In El Paso Texas

This sighting report was never posted !

No date provided. 

This is incredible! I saw this UFO when I was a kid! My father was in the Army and was stationed at Fort Bliss, but we lived off the base on Rhyolite Drive, I don't remember where exactly in El Paso this was.

We had a view of the Franklin Mountains from our front yard. I remember all the streets around us where named after stones LOL, but that's it.  

Anyway, my sister and I were riding our bikes out on the street, and my Mom yelled out the door to come inside because it was dark. As we were heading into the house, I felt a weird vibration and looked up and I saw a huge object right over me.

I remember it was bigger than anything I've seen. I told my sister to run in the house and tell our parents. I stood there completely transfixed as it hovered motionless above the house. Right above me was a circle of lights, the object itself appeared to extend infinitely in all directions.

I don't know if it was rectangular in shape, but it was so large I couldn't see the edges. I felt like I was under what would have been the center. My Mom yelled at me to come in again, so I went in. I told her what I saw, and got slapped for 'telling lies', she didn't even look!

When I looked out the window again about 5 minutes later it was gone. I thought I was crazy, especially after realizing NO ONE else I knew saw it. So I stopped talking about it.

My sister does remember it, but she was 4 at the time and only remembers "lots of lights." Of course, I was terrified, had trouble sleeping for quite a while and it was made worse by the fact that no body else saw it!

I had a dream two nights ago about UFO's flying over the Franklin mountains, and I that got me thinking that with the internet being what it is now, there might be information on the UFO I saw as a child floating around on he internet somewhere, pun intended :). So, I started googling, and I came across your story! I am so happy someone else saw it!

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Bright Yellow/Golden Object Dripping Fire From It Over Visalia California

This sighting report was never posted !

Date:  January 4, 2006

Time:  11:00 p.m.

The witness said he had read a sighting report from one of my old newsletter I use to put out and wanted to reply to this particular case. His report below.

I actually had read it a few times in the past and thought I'd like to comment on one of the encounters.

Visalia, California on January 4, 2006 at 11:00 p.m. "A Bright Yellow/Golden Light Drops Fiery Object".

I too have seen this very object not only on this particular day, but in the past as well. It is exactly as described, a bright fiery ball floating like through the night sky with the occasional dripping like fire from it.

I have also seen this on one occasion where it was raining and you can clearly see it floating/traveling through the sky just beneath the clouds.

Maybe a half dozen times my family and I have seen this. I called them out to witness this with me. Unfortunately I didn't record the times or days of the occurrences I did try one time to record it with my cell phone, but it didn't appear in the video.

Probably at the time cell phones were not all the great at photos and video. I know this was maybe a few years before the reported sighting in this column.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Huge Silver Boomerang Shaped UFO Over Commack Long Island New York

This sighting report was never posted !

Date:  February 20, 2009

Time:  Early evening.

On February 20, 2009, I lived in Commack on Long Island. I usually went in my backyard to look at the sky. It was in the early evening. I always look up and saw this huge silver boomerang shaped ship, I guess you can call it, move across very slowly, without a sound coming from it.

When it passed over my house I ran inside to draw a picture of it while it was still fresh in my mind. I saw it had 5 big globes (I’m assuming lights, but not lit).

It was on the bottom of the UFO. One on the bottom front and two on one side and two on the other side of the “wing”. 

Thank you. Sincerely.

Thank you to the witness for their report.
