Notice To The Vike Factor Visitors (From Brian Vike)

 

I am going to be out of town for well over a week, so there won’t be any new posting of sighting reports until I come back home. There will be people here at home, it is just myself who will be away.

 

Thank you, and please keep sending in the sighting reports as I will reply when I arrive back home. I should add, if you have had a Meteor/Fireball sighting, please file a detailed report on this as well. This information is helping me and many others as well.

 

I would like to extend my many thanks to everyone who has filed a sighting report to me here in the month of January. It has been the busiest month ever for myself.

 

There have been “445” sightings that have been posted to the Vike Factor in January alone. This is a new record. :)

 

Also, I did a rough count for the reports I have not posted as of yet, and there is approximately another “90” reports that have not been posted, that I will get to when I arrive back home.

 

I would like to also thank the two fellows who have been posting most of the material to the blog, couldn’t do any of this without them.

 

Take care

Ball Of Light Seen Over Surrey British Columbia

 

Date:  January 26, 2012

Time:  Evening.

 

I just wanted to report what might have been a 2nd UFO sighting in Surrey, British Columbia. I'm not sure if your from there or who we can report the sighting to here closer to us if your not. I do prefer we are to remain anonymous.

 

But we have seen the same exact ball of light twice appearing in the same spot now within a week in Jan 2012 and we are curious if anyone else have seen the same ball of light as we have?

 

It appeared to us twice in the formed shape of a very 'bright' almost like a star ball hovering just below the clouds and very large seen in Surrey, and appearing to have hovered for nearly an hour and suddenly moving in the direction of New Westminster, B.C.

 

It was not a plane or a helicopter for a helicopter did pass right over it in the direction of the Vancouver area which was the same direction the UFO eventually went. It was a solid physical object that looked very much like a star, but it was not likely a fallen star and was very low to earth just observing.

 

We managed to take a couple pictures of it from a cell phone. I did take a recording of it as well from my own phone, but when we went to check on the recording moments later, they were no where to be found throughout any files on my phone and I know I did not delete them.

 

The 1st sighting we had saw this was January 22nd 2012 in the later evening. I did check YouTube to see if anyone else had recorded it as well, or might have seen it out of curiosity hoping we couldn't have been the only people that had seen this obvious sighting hovering above Surrey BC these two times so far.

 

The last one we had just witnessed the same sighting last night appearing in the same exact area, this was on January 26th 2012 also around the same time in the later evening. 

 

If you have seen anything like this in the same area please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike at: sighting@telus.net with the details of your sighting. All personal information is kept confidential.

Amber Colored Object/Light Filmed Over Red Deer Alberta

 

Date:  January 25, 2012

Time:  Between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

 

It was Wednesday, January 25th between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. My sister and I were going to meet some friends for wings. I live in the Lancaster area and I looked to the southwest and noticed the crescent moon.

 

Above that I noticed an amber ball of light that looked sky high, not space high.

 

It moved smoothly, horizontally and to the east. It was absolutely silent and graceful. As you can see the whole thing took like 2 minutes. I just want to know what it was.

 

To view the video footage: (some language in the film, maybe not great for little ones)

This is what I saw. It looked amber in color. Completely silent. What is it?

UFOs Or Paper Lanterns ?

 

By Jennifer Lang - Cloverdale Reporter
Published: January 25, 2012 6:00 a.m.

 

Was it a practice run for the Mayan calendar prediction? Was it E.T. phoning home?

Or was it a group of illuminated, floating paper lanterns, released into the skies over Cloverdale by some celebrant who got carried away by the spirit of the season?

Three To Five White Objects Chasing One Another Over South Oshawa Ontario (Search Lights)

 

Date:  January 21, 2012

Time:  Just past midnight.

 

Vike Factor Note: The witnesses son had told his Mom that what was seen were search lights. This was really great that they still did let me know as it helps out a lot.

 

Sorry, the last comment was a little lacking in detail. Three to five white orbs chasing each other, occasionally converging. Thought at first it was searchlights reflecting off the clouds, but they don't move like searchlights.

 

Look more like orbs moving within the clouds. This is in Oshawa, to the south-east (or maybe just the south). I've been watching for close to half an hour. Publishing as anonymous 'cause I can't figure this thing out.

 

Additional Information:

 

Just after midnight, January 21st, 2012. After I posted, my son saw the lights, informed me that it was spotlights from some club in south Oshawa. Says they've been there for years. So, another embarrassing moment for Mom. Oh, well. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, though.

Matte Black UFO Performing Maneuvers In And Out Of The Clouds At West Kelowna British Columbia

 

Date:  January 22, 2012

Time:  Morning/daytime.

 

Hi Brian, I found you online right after this occurred. Sunday morning I took my dog out to do her business in the field beside our condo in West Kelowna. On the way back these two older fellows in their  70's, I would imagine called me across the street and said "young fella come over here" (keep in mind I am 43 years old).

 

Anyways, they pointed up at the sky which was overcast and grey and asked me to see what I could make of an object there. It was very far away and high and at first glance looked like a helicopter, all matte black performing maneuvers, but there way no sound and some of it’s movements we're unnatural to a helicopter.

 

The one guy said he was in the service and that was no helicopter, and after 15 minutes he said he was going to go get his binoculars. The object looked like two black balloons tethered together by a cable, one larger than the other. The movement was strange, but also fluid and it disappeared at times into the clouds.

 

This object was very high up and though you suppose it could have been weather balloons of some kind, it was not kids balloons. You could see how fast the clouds were moving and it was at their altitude, but stationary in respect to them. Suppose it could have also been a remote controlled object, but again it was pretty high up for that.

 

As in a km at least. Well that's all I have and I am one skeptical guy until I have proof. I just cannot explain what I saw.

Bright Orange Ball Of Light Seen From Toronto Ontario

 

Date:  January 21, 2012

Time:  Between 9:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.

 

Vike Factor Note: I was not the person who saw an orange object as the witness thinks, it would have been someone else who had a similar sighting.

 

Hi Brian, my name is (name removed) I live in Toronto, Ontario. On January 21st 2012, anywhere between 9:30-10:30 pm. I was outside a friends place who lives at Place Pier which is down by lake Ontario.

Anyhow I was outside when this bright orange ball (which is how I describe it) at first I thought it was a plane on fire from the island airport.

It is called the Porter Airport, but the ball kept coming from the SE and travelled to the NW where it just stayed there and got smaller and smaller until it was gone. It was like it just burnt out. Just a FYI, I did call all the people at the dinner party and two people came out.

The first one saw the orange ball on fire moving and the second person saw as it came to a stop and faded away. I have seen many things in the sky, some explainable and some not, but this is the most puzzling.

I thought at first a plane, or maybe something they were dropping, or a meteor, but that already came at the beginning of January.

My last thought is some government test because that is always possible, but like I said I am very confused about this orange ball, and since you seen the same thing I am emailing you. Thanks for your time

Loss Of Time From Princeton To Chilliwack British Columbia

 

Date:  1960 (give or take a year)

Time:  After midnight.

 

Hi Brian, was just reading about the woman who was missing time or the memory of driving to get her kids.

 

Back about 1960 give or take a year. I was driving back to Vancouver from Penticton. It was after midnight, there was no traffic so as per usual in those days I was cruising about along doing about 80 mph. or 130 kph.

 

I saw a sign saying you are entering Princeton the next thing I knew I was on the Freeway near Chilliwack still doing about 80 mph. I've always just assumed I fell asleep and some how drove about 100 miles over the top of the mountains. At the time I never thought to check my watch.

Several months later I made the same trip and once again slept coming over the Hope/Princeton, but I can vaguely recall myself driving from one side of the highway to the other, each time my wheels dropped of the road I'd automatically turn the steering and continue until the wheels dropped of the other edge, I remember waking up near Hope.

 

I don't remember opening my eyes even once coming over the mountain, just drove by feel. Lucky for me and everyone else there was apparently no other traffic.

 

About 1964 a friend of mine asked me to come with him on a drive to just south of Seattle. I had been working all night and was really tired so figured I'd sleep all the way there. We crossed the border and I started to settle down for a nap.

 

Then I made the mistake of looking at my friend. To my horror he was sound asleep. Instantly I was wide awake. I stayed awake right to our destination. Believe it or not, but not once did he open his eyes.

 

We would overtake other vehicles and he would change lanes, pass then return to the right lane. He didn't open his eyes until after we had stopped at our destination.

 

When we got home I told his wife what had happened, she said, it used to scare her when they first got married and he went to sleep. But now she just went to sleep herself.

Red Light Rises From Glenmore Reservoir At The Outskirts Of Calgary Alberta

 

Date:  2000

Time:  Evening.

 

I’m in a reserve just on the outskirts of Calgary, Alberta and back in 2000 I was just glancing out my window (high rise) and saw a red light rise from the Glenmore reservoir area, then fly into the sky.

 

I’d say it was about the size of maybe a helicopter, it was pretty amazing!

Red Beams Of Light Seen Over Sarnia Ontario

 

Date:  January 20, 2012

Time:  Evening.

 

Vike Factor Note: I am not 100% sure what the cause of this was, but there were strong solar activity around this time and this might be the northern lights.

 

Tonight is January 20, 2012 and in Sarnia, Ontario in the east end of Sarnia, me and my brother are walking north on Indian Road and seen a series of reddish beams coming down from the sky in all directions. Scary !

 

I can see a laser beam or two coming down from what seems to be absolutely nothing, but clear skies. I don’t know if anyone else has seen these, but they are out there as I speak. I’m at the corner of Indian and Wellington and the beam is around Landsdowne Park.

Silver Capsule Shaped UFO Seen Hovering From River Road Delta British Columbia

 

Date:  Mid June 2008

Time:  6:00 a.m.

 

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Capsule.

 

Full Description of Event/Sighting: My husband and I were travelling from Surrey, B.C. to Ladner, B.C. on local transit via river road at approximately 5:45 a.m. in the month of June.

 

The weather was clear, no clouds and sun was beginning to rise. This area nearing Ladner is a rural route and is mostly farms so you have a very good view with no obstacles to mislead you.

 

I happen to be looking out the window at Mount Baker in the distance and noticed the sunrise and an object sitting stationary in the sky. It was silver, it was a capsule shape which was large even from the distance we were viewing it.

 

You could tell it was metallic and a solid form as the sun was reflecting off of it. I nudged my husband who also began viewing it. We watched it sit in the same spot for about 5 or more minutes and then lost sight due to bus route and tall trees.

 

Within a few minutes we came to an area where we had clear vision and the object was gone. This was not a weather balloon, it was not a blimp, this was not an aircraft and we have no aircraft testing sites anywhere near here.

 

It was not simply a reflection of the sun, you could clearly see a solid defined metal capsule shaped object standing mid air. Also there were no lights coming from the object. It was about 1 mile away and approximately 1000 feet up.

 

We travel this route often at the same time and at other times during the day, we have never again seen anything like what we had spotted that morning.

Hovering Large Green Glowing Sphere Over Cold Lake Alberta

 

Date:  Summer of 2011

Time:  Between 1:00 a.m. – 2:00 a.m.

 

Hi, my name (name removed) and I’m from Cold Lake, Alberta. Last summer I worked nights and after work I would go running for a couple hours every night.

 

Well on one of these nights I stopped to have a smoke around 1:00 a.m. – 2:00 a.m., I’m not sure the exact date, but I remember it was during the radio broadcast of Coast to Coast AM.

 

Any way I stopped and was looking at my I-phone then I just looked up and to the horizon and across a dark field hovering over the tree line was a large green glowing sphere.

 

As soon as I looked at it, it went back up behind the tree line (which is where the residential area behind the Tri City Mall starts) and went straight down. 

 

I could see it casting shadows through the trees. I was standing approximately a kilometer from the object, I immediately opened up the camera app on my I-phone to record it, thinking it would pop back up from behind the tree line since there are houses right there. 

 

I sat and recorded that area of the horizon for a couple minutes before I realized it wasn't coming back up. In the area I was standing, was behind the newly constructed catholic elementary school. 

 

I think it’s called the Holy Cross and the tree line I’m referring too is across a field to the north.

 

The object seem to be aware that I was observing it since it was stationary until I saw it. I've never seen anything like that before. It seems to have gone straight down into the ground without effecting the houses in any way.

 

I heard it could be a native spirit as this area was occupied and still is by many different native peoples. It would be hard to estimate the size of the sphere from where I was.

 

If I were to walk a straight line to the trees, it would be less than a kilometer, but unfortunately that area is filled with a marsh since the small lake dried up in the 1970's.

Yellow Colored Object Changes To A Dull Orange Over Chatsworth Ontario

 

Date:  January 15, 2012

Time:  Approx:7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.

 

I believe we may have saw the same UFO identified in the "Pillar of light observed over Edmonton Alberta"

 

I was looking out the window when I saw something out of the corner of my eye, so I looked. At first I thought it was just a star, but then I realized it had 3 lights directly beside each other and over time I discovered that it seemed to be moving closer.

 

So myself and a family member both saw it and we knew we weren't imagining things. Just to make sure we took a camera and took some pictures, they weren't very good pictures, but they proved it was there.

 

We took the pictures outside, then went back in. When we got to the window again it was moving backwards and as I am writing it is still slowly disappearing. 

 

It was at first a bright yellow and as it's leaving, I noted it was a very dull orange. We searched UFO's because I wanted to know if anyone else had seen something like it.

 

It may have been just a satellite, but I think not. I have a reason for this. When we were looking over the pictures we noticed that the dog had orange demon like eyes, and as the dogs owner said, she'd never had them before in any pictures.

 

It was approximately 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

 

I hope I covered everything you need to know. and I hope you know what happened to the dog.

 

Additional Information:

 

The date was Sunday January 15, 2012 about 7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. (ish). We were just on the far side of Chatsworth. As for the pictures, I don't know about that.

 

See they weren't very good, I told my cousin to use her camera and well, she's defiantly not professional. I probably can still send them, but as to their quality, don’t be harsh they were taken by and 11 year old.

 

I probably should've done it, but she wouldn't let me touch her camera. I can probably get them to you this weekend if not before. I will try and Photoshop them to circle our object so it makes sense.

 

Also you should pay attention to the dogs eyes, in the one. It’s very odd.

To be honest if I hadn’t known my cousin and I were on the second story, and looking out over trees I would've thought it to be a street light and not paid any attention to it.

 

But I knew something weird was going on, something just kept drawing me to her window. Which staring out of a window isn’t normally my cup of tea.

Anyway I hope this information helps.

Object Looked Like The Sun And Seen Over Campbell's Hill Midland Ontario

 

Date:  Somewhere around Winter 2009 ?

Time:  Midday.

 

It was years ago me and my friend were snowboarding at Campbell's Hill in Midland, Ontario beside the rec center. I got to the bottom, turned around to go up the hill again and noticed what looked like 2 suns.

 

One was actually the sun the other moved very smoothly and slowly over head turning slightly and hovered above for about 2 minutes after taking 5-10 minutes to slowly cross the sky.

 

It was years ago, but me and my friend can remember it like it just happened.

 

Also around the same time of year I also seen strange lights in a few different colors spinning around something they seem to come down in a farmers field near balm beach in the concessions.

 

I watched it fly away as I drove my car closer to the area where it appeared to hover.

 

I remember seeing a big light on a farmers barn blink as the lights got closer then became fine again as the lights got further away.

 

The lights appeared to have one light shining straight towards the ground, but because the other light were so intense in the night sky it was hard to tell whether or not there actually was.

Bright Object Fades Away And Disappears Over Peterborough Ontario

 

Date:  Summer 2010

Time:  Evening.

 

I seen a UFO in Peterborough in the Summer of 2010 on my brothers balcony at city center. I looked up in the north sky at this star on a clear night.

 

It was really bright when the light faded, it was gone. There were no clouds or anything, it was just gone and all the stars around the light I was focusing on, were still clearly visible.

 

It was like the UFO took off into space, not to the left or to the right, but straight away from my eye or it just faded out. I saw it for 15-30 seconds before it disappeared. 

 

I didn’t show my brother, because I thought it was just a star.

Round Glowing Ball Of Light With Tail Over Creemore Ontario

 

Date:  January 17, 2012

Time:  11:00 p.m. – 12:00 a.m.

 

Hi there, my boyfriend and I saw very similar sighting just outside Creemore, Ontario this Sunday night. My father lives at the top of Lavender Hill road we were in a hot tub outside and I was looking east over the horizon sometime between 11:00 p.m. – 12:00 a.m. 

 

I saw a perfect round glowing ball with a long tail moving north very, very fast. We are thinking about 1500-2000 miles an hour, or three times as fast as airliner.

 

I said to my boyfriend, what the hell is that! Look what he hell is that ? Very strange.
