Asteroids Could Destroy Earth
 
Astronomers claim there are asteroids out there, that could smack into the Earth and wipe out human civilization, but they are well on their way to finding every asteroid that poses a threat. Experts told the Senate subcommittee on Science, Technology and Space that they are on schedule to finding everything bigger than 1 kilometer in diameter that might hit the Earth and destroy a city... "Since 1998, more than 700 objects have been discovered, and is over 70 percent complete.
 
NASA's Lindley Johnson told the hearing. There have been a few scares. Last September, scientists spotted asteroid "2003 QQ47" and first measurements suggested it could hit the Earth on March 21, 2014, with an explosion the size of 20 million atomic bombs. But the forecast was revised: It won't hit, after all. A small asteroid is believed to have leveled 400 square miles of Siberian forest in 1908. "Although the probability of the Earth being hit by a large object in this century is low, a defense against such an occurrence would be to use The Space Shuttle's main engines for 20 years to deflect a 1 kilometer object away from a projected collision, Using a nuclear bomb might make matters worse because the pieces of the blown-up asteroid would stay in the same orbit and eventually come back together again. The next task will be to find smaller objects that could do considerable damage. Thanks to Bruce
 
New Jersey - Orbs
 
SOUTH PLAINFIELD - The 32 year old witness was passing over the Driscoll Bridge on the Garden State Parkway on April 5, 2004, at 11:45 PM when he spotted a sphere type orange ball of light. The object banked left and proceeded to accelerate upwards into some high level clouds and then out of site rather quickly. Thanks to Peter Davenport
 
 
Pennsylvania - White Diamond
 
ERIE - On April 7, 2004 from 9:30 to 11:00 PM, the witness saw in the northwest sky an extremely bright white light like a diamond would sparkle. At times it also seemed to shift, for a second or so, to a slight reddish color and then back to white. It was at least ten times that of the biggest star in the sky. There seamed to be small dot shaped, orangish - reddish in color, "balls, disks" in the surrounding area of the light. They numbered perhaps eight or ten. They were perfectly round with no extending light beyond the actual shape.
 
Then, I saw two of the white balls move away at a fairly fast speed. The one followed the other in exact formation space and distance from the other. They continued moving away changing to orange and finally disappeared. At one point approximately 30 minutes after I first saw the light it dropped lower in the sky, just a little, the reason I noticed this was because it was now just slightly below the tree line. By 11 PM, it was gone. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
 
 
Virginia - Image of Diamond UFO
 
 
 
 
FRANKLIN COUNTY -- Don sent me an image of a diamond shaped UFO over the countryside taken towards the Appalachian Mountains on April 8, 2004. In late afternoon, about 5:45 PM, there was a gorgeous double rainbow after a rainstorm near the Blue Ridge Parkway twenty miles south of Roanoke. Don took five images of the rainbow in several minutes and one contained the UFO. Neither he nor his friend saw the UFO. Thanks to Don.
 
Florida - Oval
 
LAKELAND -- My parents called and told me they saw a UFO on April 4, 2004, at about 1 PM. My Dad said it hovered for about 45 seconds and then it was gone. He said the object was like a cigar with the ends rounded. He said right after that a jet flew over their car. Both my parents told the same story. I have to believe its true coming from them. <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
 
BRANDON - The witness was heading for home on April 3, 2004, at 6:45 PM, in her truck and noticed the moon had just risen. The sun was not yet touching the horizon when I saw what I first thought was Venus. However, this was NOT Venus because it was very pure white, oval shaped object about 1/2 the size of a full moon. It looked to be over the Gulf of Mexico. It seemed very high in the sky and did not move, it just glowed. At this point I pulled over on the side of the road so I could watch it uninterrupted. As the sun lowered, the object went from an oval to more of a triangle with softened corners. As the last of the sun went below the horizon, the object faded away right before my eyes. Could it be the reflection of something? Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
Michigan - Funnel
 
TROY -- The object at times looked like funnel shaped cloud on April 5, 2004, at 7 PM, It was very fuzzy and sounded almost like a hurricane was coming. I have lived here for less then a year and so many of these things have happened. This is the first time I have seen what I have heard. I saw these objects at least a dozen times. I watched for at least 10 minutes and they periodically came back into view. They were very high up and as high as planes usually fly, the one's with the smoke following them. I think these were UFO's. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
 
OHIO - Flying Rectangles
 
FOSTORIA-- Susan Holderman writes, "I had the most exciting moment of my life today while driving home from Tiffin on Route 18, coming out of Bascom on my way to Fostoria at 3:40 PM. I was entering the small town and could see the highway and sky ahead of me where the town ends. Coming from the left, were two huge identical planes one behind the other. They were huge, long, thin rectangular shapes with no windows, or markings to be seen with a square "rudder" shaped appendage standing up from the back of them. They were descending very smoothly, noiselessly toward an open field on the right.
 
I was thinking, "where in the world were they landing?" >From the middle of the town, they filled up the space where I could see the sky at the end of town. This is the first time I have actually seen anything so detailed, so close, and so big and in the daytime yet! When I got to the edge of town and could see the open field, there was absolutely nothing there at all, in the sky or in the field, no where! They just disappeared! These were so huge that they could have been seen for a mile at least and did not appear to be going fast, actually just gliding along on a descent! I know the other people on the road with me saw them too. I kept watching the guy behind me as we left the town and his head was turning all over the place like mine, trying to figure out where they went. He talked on his cell phone all the way to Fostoria. Some of George Ritter's photos look similar to what I saw. What a RUSH! I am so excited! Thanks to Susan Holderman.

Indiana -Saucer With Six Lights
 
ROCHESTER - The witness spotted a saucer like shape that had six lights at 10 PM, on April 8, 2004. The lights were big and looked like stadium lights. There were three lights in a row then a six foot gap and three more lights. The lights were on for l5-20 seconds then off for another l5-20 seconds, and back on. The craft was still in the same place. As the lights were going off for the second time, the craft started slowing moving northeast. Then, the lights went out and the craft was gone. The craft hovered over the tree tops and was not on the ground. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
Illinois - Flying Triangle
 
CHAMPAIGN -- Early on April 4, 2004, a couple went to look at the stars and around 1 AM, a group of lights came from the southwest and passed directly over them going northeast. There were about eight lights arranged into a sort of triangular shape, although it may have been more of an X. It was hard to tell exactly because the lights were spinning around. Whatever, it was moving pretty fast because it only took about six seconds to cross the sky. In this time, it made at least three rotations tumbling across the sky in a straight line. They were moving as if they were part of the same object. It was difficult to estimate size and altitude, but it was about 10 degrees across the length of your fist at arm's length. They were both pretty jumpy and left. Other friends of ours saw something odd and it seems we saw the same thing. They saw it from the side, from the 11th floor of their building; and said it was really low in the sky. They thought it was probably about 75-100 feet in length. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
Tennessee - Florescent Disc
 
JOHNSON COUNTY -- MUFON's Kim Shaffer writes, On April 3, 2004, I received a call from a gentleman who was very excited about an object he and another witness saw at 17:30 hours a "florescent light bulb" high in the sky. There were aircraft in the vicinity leaving condensation trails, well below the observed object that was stationary and holding horizontally, it's very high position. As the planes passed, the object turned slowly vertically and ascended higher into the sky and out of sight. The witnesses were adamant that this was a solid object. I contacted the local FAA office and inquired as to where there had been any pilot reported anomalous objects but received no conformation.
 
KNOXVILLE -- Kim Shaffer, received a call from another truck driver who witnessed a metallic disc on I-40 just east of Knoxville on the afternoon of April 8, 2004. Witness reported that the disc paced his truck and was quite large, (relative size was that of a silver dollar) reflective and seemed to rock side to side as it moved in a straight path. Witness stated that the object moved behind some trees and he anticipated seeing it again when he and the object passed the trees, but when he got past the trees the disc did not reappear.

Arizona - Reddish Ligh
 
BULLHEAD CITY, and LAUGHLIN, NV - A couple were driving home on April 9, 2004, at 8:05 PM, when they noticed a fairly bright light on an object directly in front of them to the north. What appeared to be the wing of the craft was illuminated by the bright singular light of the object as if in a hard bank. So the "wing" was straight up and down and was not hiding the large singular light, nor was it affecting the intensity of the light. At this time, my wife called her mother and had her look from her location which was only a few blocks away north of our position. She attempted to get her video camera set up, but was unable to do so during the short time span. It was no more than five miles away and made no sound. There was no wind, yet the object looked as if it were drifting in a large circle hung from a cable from high above. It appeared to keep the same altitude as it drifted east and west pivoting in circles.
 
It would slow as it reached the edge of its circular pivot. This was no flare and there was no smoke and it didn't do a good job illuminating the ground. It was like a hot air balloon dangling a light below it. The single light was much brighter and ten times larger than Venus, the evening star, which was present just to the west. The light was a dim reddish color that tended to flicker slightly. When the object disappeared, the light simply went out as if you flipped a switch. I can't explain the cable or the "wing" structure above the light. I'm a trained observer, and work security for the Federal Government. I've never seen a "UFO" before. This object was seen by many others and Laughlin Airport is five miles away but it was not an aircraft. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
 
Nevada - Giant Flying Caterpillar
 
LAS VEGAS - A giant dark brown caterpillar-like object wiggled its way across the sky on April 4, 2004, at 3:45 PM. The high floating caterpillar floated slowly northwest writhing its body at a rather high altitude. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
California - Low Flying Blue Object
 
FAIR OAKS -- The witness was driving back to work at noon with his fiancé on April 9, 2004. Near the Sunrise Bridge over the American River, the witness noticed a low flying light blue airplane almost like the sky that he thought was going to crash because it was flying so low. Suddenly it was gone. We looked in the sky all over for it but it disappeared. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
 
Washington - Fireball and Smoke
 
VASHON ISLAND - The witness noticed a huge meteor heading west, away from his home on April 7, 2004, at 7:45 PM. It had the standard looking orange flame surrounding a red/black core. I called my Mom out to watch with me. Within five minutes the object had dulled to a soft glow. The sunset is about 8:15 here now but the object was still highly visible. The light then completely extinguished and the object turned more northerly, toward the Olympic Mountains. As it fell, dark black smoke trailed behind it. It wasn't falling quickly, like a shooting star, but as a "regular" plane would fly. This was not a plane as it turned in more of a direct shift. The news didn't report anything about the flame or smoke. SEA-TAC airport is across the bay. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
Canada - Heavy UFO Activity
 
BIBLE HILL, NOVA SCOTIA -- The following sighting was reported to Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The witness a 24 years old, and 3rd year science student noticed two objects at a high altitude, almost parallel, one lagging slightly behind the other traveling in a northern direction at 12:35 AM, on April 11, 2004. They were moving very fast and were very faint, much less so than the stars. They were much larger than an airplane and not blinking. The lagging object sped up to reach the other and then, as if playing a game, cris crossed a number of times. This happened really quickly and then they faded out of sight.
 
NEW WESTMINSTER, BC - On April 4, 2004, at midnight the witness spotted two cigar shaped UFOs that flew horizontally traveling north with bright red fireball heads and long bright yellow tails. The two objects flew parallel to each other at fairly low level at a steady pace staying beside each other for two seconds before they disappeared! There was no sputter, fading or smoking - they just disappeared! I've never seen anything like this before in my life.
 
SURREY, BC - On April 7, 2004, at 9:45 PM, the witness, a pilot, saw three lights rapidly approaching from the west in a triangle formation, at '12 o'clock low.' The object between the lights was solid and triangular and when the object banked north, the angular relationship between the lights was consistent with the banking of an aircraft. However, this was no ordinary aircraft. It moved completely silently and covered half the horizon that is from Surrey to the North Shore Mountains in about four seconds. I am guessing the altitude at 2000 - 3000 feet, and the brightness of the lights of the object relative to the brightness of passing aircraft lights at within 7000 feet. I felt it could not be man-made. The flight path of the object was directly over the approach path to YVR.
 
VERNON, BC -- On April 8, 2004, at around 11 PM, in the western sky, a gold object with red underneath, left a short bright yellow gold trail and slowed down before the horizon. Time was about 3 seconds. A shooting star leaves long trails, and a meteor increases speed before impact, or burns out leaving smoky trails. This sighting had neither one of these behaviors. It was something different. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director <http://www3.telus.net/public/wilbur8/index.html>HBCC UFO Research

Malaysia - Disc
 
KUALA LUMPUR - The witness reports, "I poked my head through my 5th floor window April 08, 2004, about 7 PM, to invite my friend who lives upstairs to eat dinner with me. Suddenly I noticed a black eagle like object which was hovering close by. It was a black disc-shaped UFO. It floated at the same attitude going forward. I pointed it out to my friend and he thought it was the so-called UFO too. We looked carefully at it as it slowly hovered, just like helicopters. I estimated it to be about 100 meters from the ground and about the size of a car. It made no sound. The disc flew in a very unique way, it flew like something injured, because it sloped 45 degree to the left then right then left again as it traveled along. If it was flown by humans, they would easily be affected by nausea in such aircraft. I noticed a red light flashing at the back of the craft. The atmosphere near it was a little lighter than normal, maybe due to shimmering. It disappeared in the distance. Thanks to Brian Vike <http://www.hbccufo.com/>CANADA HBCC
 
 
 
Philippines - Disk
 
VICTORIAS CITY-- The witness spotted a disk type object with a very bright light and a low sound on April 7, 2004, at 9 PM. We heard a sound like many people talking. The color of the light of that object changed to blue, red, violet, and orange. After fifteen minutes it departed. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>UFOcenter
 
 
Australia - Oval UFO's
 
COOMA - The witness was sitting on the front porch of his home with some friends drinking argile on April 7, 2004, at 11:44 PM. Suddenly we saw a flash of light, then a series of flashing lights for about twenty seconds. They spotted eight oval shaped objects with white and blue flashing lights. They hovered in the distance for another minute and then flew across the sky like ravenous demons, leaving a red haze trail of smoke behind. As they flew by, over my home, our lights turned off and our cars would not start and our radios were buzzing for about five minutes after they were out of the vicinity. Being frightened by what we saw, we called the police. They thought we were pranksters, so we then decided to flee our homes and traveled to Sydney, to stay in a populated area with our families where we knew it would be safe.
