- OLD TOWN -- Zak Keenan writes, "Last week, Filer's
Files reported about a college couple seeing a large flying triangle hovering
200 feet over the Catholic Church at 6:40 PM on January 10, 2003."
I am a college student in Old Town, and a frequent reader of your reports,
but I am a little skeptical of that UFO report. I was out at 4:30 AM,
on January 20, and I too noticed a triangle shaped craft on the north end
of Campus facing the direction of downtown Old Town. I was stunned. It
was a ways off in the distance and it was hard to get an estimate as to
how far away it was. I watched the craft come closer, and seeing how
it was triangular shaped I knew it could very easily be the wings of an
airplane. In my view of looking at the object I saw two towers that I
believe are navigating towers for aircraft flying to Bangor International
Airport ten miles to the south. The object I was viewing made very little
noise, but I could faintly hear some noise as it moved closer. As much
as I wanted to believe it was a UFO, it made more sense to pass the object
off as a C5 cargo transport plane that frequents BIA. With the upcoming
war in Iraq it only makes sense that they would be out there at night and
flying a little lower trying to get more accustomed to flying in those
conditions. I appreciate all that you do. Thanks to Zak Keenan
-
- Editor's Note: The witnesses described a silent craft
hovering over the church at 200 feet altitude. A C-5 aircraft would make
tremendous noise and would stall out of the sky at less than 150 mph.

- NEW YORK PULSATING OBJECT AND FIVE DISCS
-
- LOCKPORT -- The witness reports, "I was up 4:45
AM, Friday on January 10, 2003, working at the computer and opened the
window to get a breath of fresh air and saw in the distance a hovering
light, that was pulsating colors." It looked like somebody took a
flashlight and shut it off and on repeatedly, but very quickly. I saw
white, the main color with different hues of red and yellow. I watched
this for about seven minutes and the light did not move at all, it seemed
to be perfectly stationary. I would have expected some movement. Near
the end of this event, the light became very bright and then dimmed out
with a reddish hue and vanished, sort of "winking" out.

- HUDSON FALLS -- The witness reports, "On January
16, 2003, between 09:30 and 09:40 AM, I witnessed five orbs or disk shaped
objects 18 miles south of Lake George, at extreme altitude heading southeast."
The sky was bright blue and the first object was followed in the same
flight path by another about 35 seconds behind. The second object was
then followed by two more disks one slightly ahead of the other. The third
set of objects was then followed by another disk once again 35 seconds
behind. They were followed by the fifth disk again 35 seconds behind the
fourth. They flew leaving no contrails. Just north of the objects flight
path was a jet airliner flying much lower at an estimated 30,000 feet leaving
a large contrail. The discs were light blue and silver as the sun glistened
off them. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>NUFORC

- WEST VIRGINIA MISSING TIME
-
- MARTINSBURG -- Bobby Darren (synonym name) writes: "I
really enjoy reading your files and experienced some missing time early
this morning on January 24, 2003, before I got up for my newspaper route.
Also, when I was leaving my house I was startled by a very large dark
colored flying triangle hovering 50 feet above our roof, where my bedroom
is located. When I left the house the flying triangle tilted slightly
and flew off to the east with a really deep sound. The next morning around
4:00 AM as I drove through Eastern West Virginia, I saw six glowing orbs
along my route changing from solid colors to a fast pulse. They hovered
over houses at tree top level moving very slow from the north to the east.
There was also a very big round object with a very bright light out there.
This object came up from the ground northeast from my location and was
very big. It seemed to follow my movements thru my whole route. I've
shown friends and family these objects and we are all left wondering what
is going on in our skies. I have tried taking pictures of them before
with 400 and 800 speed film, but the local Wal Mart would either lose the
film or nothing came out. I was thinking of getting binoculars with a
digital camera built in, Radio shack sells them for $99.00. But I would
like to talk to somebody that owns a pair first. I didn't see anything
Sunday, but this morning I saw a few more orange orbs, and the real big
bright object came up from the ground from the south today.

- GEORGIA SILVER SPHERE INVESTIGATION
-
- CAMPBELLTON -- Mark M. Kravitz, FIT and Tome Sheets State
Director conducted the investigation of a "silver sphere," seen
at 2:20 PM on May 18th, 2002, by a retired Eastern Airlines Commercial
Pilot with 20/20 vision. The witness took them out in his yard and explained
he was looking at the NW sky above the treeline and saw a silver sphere
(like a ball-bearing), move from NW to SE at a high rate of speed before
disappearing in seven seconds. The object reflected light but too far
away to discern any sound coming from object, nor any specific features.
The witness drew a diagram of the sighting and were taken to the area
where the sighting took place. He lives in the flight path of Hartsfield
International Airport, Atlanta. Based on his knowledge and many years
of experience as an airline pilot (retired), he's certain this object was
nothing that was recognizable to him.
-
- During the formal interview the witness went back over
the facts he had written in his personal account and a Form #1 was completed.
His facts remained consistent, concise and to the point. He seemed truthful
in his story of what occurred, and we found no motives for him to fabricate
such an account. He did indicate past encounters with unknown objects
while in the cockpit. The witness was found to have had a desire to fly
since his early life, and all of his younger years were devoted to achieving
this goal. He is also interested in the various activities of the ISS
and shuttle missions, and sometimes monitors their orbital passes. He
seemed pretty well versed regarding the UFO phenomena in general, having
studied it since his first encounter from the cockpit. These investigators
are of the impression that he was describing exactly what had occurred
in a forthright and truthful manner. No other witnesses have come forward.
I contacted the Dobbins AFB PIO office and inquired if they had any similar
sightings, but I never heard anything back from the office. We contacted
local law enforcement agencies, but there was no record of any UFO reports
on that date. These investigators doubt that this was a hoax, due to background
of witness, his age, demeanor and previously known reputation. There were
three other sightings that this witness has been involved in and he gave
us some details of these previous sightings, as well as how he panned for
gold near his property.
-
- SIGHTING EVALUATION -- Although this case was easy to
investigate, due to witness experience and detailed knowledge of event,
it was unfortunately not possible to corroborate thru other credible witness
reports, photos, videos, etc. However, we both believe he definitely saw
a solid type object that was unknown to him, traveling at a high rate of
speed across the horizon and definitely was not any type of aircraft that
he was familiar with. Due to these limited facts, I determined this event
to be classified as an ORDINARY UNKNOWN. Based on his 20+ plus years in
the airline industry and his description of the incident, it's our belief
that what he saw was NOT any known aircraft.
-
- During the interview conducted by MUFONGA's Mark Kravitz,
this writer closely observed the witness, adding occasional questions or
comments. The witness was observed in the manner of a kinesic or forensic
interview, and was found to be totally calm, collected, with all of his
facts remaining the same throughout. No signs of stress, nervousness,
or negative factors were noticed. This writer's opinion reflects that
of Mark Kravitz, that the witness was relating exactly what he observed
in the manner of a highly trained professional aviator. He is known to
this SD via his interest in astronomy and the monitoring of the orbiting
ISS and shuttle missions. Thanks to Tom Sheets, State Director Georgia

- FLORIDA DAYLIGHT FLYING TORPEDO
-
- CAPITOLA -- The witness was feeding his sheep on January
14, 2003, and heard a loud jet engine overhead, so he looked up and saw
the jet at about 5,000 feet heading north. Below the jet, at about 1,000
feet I saw a large torpedo shaped object flying south. The jet and noise
were gone in about ten seconds; but, the tube was silent, big and slow.
It was faster than any blimp, but much slower than a plane like a Cessna
172. It was not a blimp because it was much slimmer, and didn't have a
pod beneath or fins or engines. It was shiny as a mirror and I didn't
see any wings. I began to scream "look, a spacecraft!" over
and over. Three girls ran over and I believe they saw it. My neighbors
came out to see what all the fuss was about, but it had passed behind some
trees and was about rice grain size. I would estimate its actual size
was two semi-trailers. I'm located 15 miles east of Tallahassee. Thanks

- ALABAMA ORANGE GLOWING PLASMA
-
- CULLMAN -- The witness reports, "My wife had just
let the dog out on January 11, 2003, and was watching from the living room
window. At 10 PM, she said "Come LOOK at this!" What I beheld
was a huge glowing orange plasma like fire? There was an orange ball in
the sky to the south-a few miles away. The sky was crystal clear and no
moon. The object had a trail of very thin plasma coming up off of it and
coming down below it giving it a shape like a bulbous ice sickle. It continued
north straight toward our house and the plasma faded slowly and revealed
either a diamond shaped or triangular shaped craft with a row of greenish
lights all the way across the bottom. It also had blinking lights on the
wing tips and there was NO sound!
-
- MOUNDVILLE -- On January 16, 2003, at 4:25 AM, I spotted
a UFO. This is the third time I have seen these objects in less than a
month in this area. After the first time I was scared if I had really
seen it, but since then I was obsessed to explain what I had seen. So
a friend and I went to the same spot where we saw the object the first
time. This time there were two objects that were round with glowing light
beams coming out of them. They changed shapes and moved in a zigzag formation.
I have a very clear video of one object, as it moved and we were able
to follow it for fifty miles. On the video you can see clearly that the
beams change colors, the object changes shape, moves very fast and makes
no sound. I want someone to look at this video. MOUNDVILLE -- Two egg
shaped objects were observed moving in a 'Z' pattern on January 6, by several
witnesses who stated, "The batteries and lights on our vehicle stopped
when two egg shaped objects approached us."
-
- BOAZ -- Also, on January 16, 2003, the witness reports
seeing a white craft that changed to different colors at 12:30 AM as it
hovered. The top seemed to open up and it looked like something poked
its head out and then the arms raised. Then a figure seemed to parachute
out of the circle and it floated down for a ways. Then it looked like
it changed into a small plane and then disappeared. <http://www.ufocenter.com/>NUFORC

-
- BILOXI -- My fiancé and I were driving west on
Beach Boulevard on January 12, 2003, and had just passed the Keesler AFB
entrance when we saw a string of lights hovering over the water at 7 PM.
We passed some trees and looked over the water and the string of lights
just "disappeared." Then we saw an aircraft coming from Keesler
headed toward the UFO, like it was going to investigate the same area.
We noticed that the traffic on the other side of the road was slowing
down also, so they probably saw what we saw. Thanks to Peter Davenport

8, 2003, at 4:30 PM, when he noticed a bird flying along about 50 feet
above the ground. It was just flying swiftly through the wind, and then
BAM, it stopped dead flight just like it hit a wall. I assure you that
their was nothing in the way that could disrupt my view, but the wounded
bird then fell and hit the road. Whatever it hit was transparent. Interestingly,
the street lights at this intersection where this occurred have been messed
up for three days now. It was very strange. <http://www.ufocenter.com/>NUFORC

- NORTH JUDSON/KNOX -- I am a 20 year old girl currently
living with my 31 year old boyfriend and our 6 month old baby girl. On
January 15, 2003, 7:20 AM, I was on my way to an 8:00 AM appointment on
State Highway 10 headed east. My boyfriend's mother was driving when I
looked out and saw two lights beside each other like a pair of eyes, They
switched places pretty fast and flew off in opposite directions to the
east and west. I don't know why, but I didn't tell my boyfriends Mom.
After traveling seven more minutes we entered the Knox Welfare Office.
I looked out the window and saw what could've been one of objects headed
south until it was really small. I turned away convinced of my first
sighting. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>NUFORC

- ILLINOIS STRANGE VERTICAL LIGHTS
-
- CHICAGO -- The witness reports that on my drive home
on January 13, 2003, at 9:30 PM, I noticed that the sky was much brighter
than normal. I noticed vertical lights in the sky that seemed to be projecting
light from the sky to the ground. On my journey home I must have seen
about 40 - 50 of these lights. Some of those lights where alone and others
where paired up in 3 - 4 lights equidistance of one another. What's strange
is that these lights couldn't have been commercial advertisement because
they could be seen for a distance of 10 - 20 miles away? I called a few
friends in different areas and they all confirmed the lights, as well as
some callers did to a popular music station that I was listening to at
the time. At about 10:00 PM, I took out my digital camera and took a few
pictures. At the same time I saw military aircraft flying around. Thanks

- KANSAS FLASHING LIGHT KEEPS PACE WITH AIRCRAFT
-
- WICHITA -- Around 8:30 PM, on January 8, 2003, I was
flying a commercial propjet from Dallas to Wichita when I noticed a flashing
of light to the port side. The light was far enough behind the wing that
I doubt the cabin crew saw it. We were flying at 18,000 feet. The flashing
light paced our aircraft in steady northward direction. I can only describe
the flashing as what the tail of a sparkler looks like or a Roman candle.
I noticed that the flashing would illuminate trees, so it was very close
to the ground. It appeared that the light was occasionally traveling through
trees. The light would flare-up and then it would go dark for 1-5 seconds
and then appear again. The flashing light would only occur in dark spots
on the ground as if it was intentionally bypassing areas of man-made illumination.
I turned, and asked a fellow passenger if he saw the light, and he replied
in the affirmative. When the flashing light reached the south side of
Wichita, it then turned to the west and I lost sight of it. It appeared
that the light deliberately avoided flying into Wichita. I did not see
an object, only the flashing light. Thanks to Peter Davenport <http://www.ufocenter.com/>NUFORC

- OKLAHOMA HUGE ORANGE BALL
-
- NORMAN -- The witness who occupies a position of responsibility
in social care was in his backyard at 1:27 AM, on January 11, 2003, when
he saw a huge semicircle with vague light above it in a flatter formation.
The observer states, "The sphere was bright orange with black tendrils
of various shapes on the surface and at first I thought it might be the
moon, but it was too low and strange." I found the moon much higher
and it was a white quarter moon. This object was definitely round, though
it looked as if the sphere had been cut off at the top, like an upside
down dome. I ran inside and got my video camera and followed it the whole
way down into the tree tops where it looked like it sat on the tree tops
for a while. I went in to call my sister, a pilot, and it was gone when
I came back out. I checked my camera but the film did not come out. Thanks

- TEXAS LIGHTS AND CONTRAILS
-
- DALLAS -- At 7 AM, on January 16, 2003, at 4:25 AM, I
noticed a large lit object, almost directly overhead and I called to my
wife to see the VERY bright planet. When we looked again some ten minutes
later, it had moved about a foot at arm's length which is too far for a
celestial object to move in a short time frame. Fifteen minutes later;
we both saw that it had disappeared! As I drove her to work, we saw contrails
of two VERY fast moving jets converging on the EXACT spot where the light
had been. They crossed this same patch of sky over and over again in an
"x" pattern. It seemed to be searching for the object for about
fifteen minutes. I returned home, I got binoculars to observe, and could
only make out the contrails (puffy, and definitely corkscrewed) converging
again and again on this same spot for at least thirty 30 minutes. Then
the light reappeared and I see it was round with a shadow! Both jets made
tight turns and converged on the spot again. They were a foot away at
arm's length when the light blinked off! As the planes crossed each other,
I saw the light reappear to the south two feet away at arm's length! Again,
the jets executed tight turns and converged on the same spot, only to have
the light disappear again. This occurred two more times, and then the
light disappeared totally. I witnessed the short, jagged contrail-producing
jets crisscross that patch of sky repeatedly until 10:30 AM. I saw a multitude
of Sweets and American Airlines planes flying low producing no trails.

was diamond shaped. It was clear out after a rain with just some clouds
here and there, with one that seemed to circle this star. All of a sudden
the "star" made swift movements to the right and back and than
a bit up and down. For the most part it seemed to move right a small space

- BUENOS AIRES PROVINCE -- Numerous sightings have been
reported in different communities during January of 2003. On Saturday,
January 11, numerous blue, red and green, fireballs were reported over
the city of Buenos Aires. They were moving at variable speeds and following
flight patterns unattainable by commercial aircraft. On January 17, 2003,
an electrical technician saw an intense white light over the coastal city
of Necochea. The object engaged in a variety of maneuvers and made no
noise. In the city of San Andres de Giles, Juan Carlos Ferreto was startled
to see the perfect seven meter circle in his soybean field that appeared
that a disc had landed burning the grass. It left a talc-like ash at its
center but the rest of the plants were very green, and 40 centimeters high.
Juanc Carlos Mendizabal remembers at the same spot on September 4, 1981,
