- Grand Island, Nebraska A Circular Object Hovering
Over The Highway
-
- Date: Spring of 1958
- Time: 10:00 -11:00 p.m.
-
- Location of Sighting: 5 miles west of
Grand Island Ne Hwy 2
- Number of witnesses: 4
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: Circular.
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: I
was about 16 years old, traveling west on Highway 2 with my parents
and younger brother when we saw an circular object perhaps, 75' over the
highway. It was just hovering there. As I remember it had many white
lights on it and several windows with light coming through. My Dad was
scared, he stopped the car just before coming to the craft as he didn't
want to drive under it. I had my head out of the window looking at it,
and listening for sound, but could hear no sounds. Dad finally mustered
the courage to drive under it to go home. I kept telling him to stop to
see what it was, but both him and Mom were scared to death. When we got
home my parents never talked about it, except to say don't tell any one
as they will think you are crazy. They owned a tavern at the time,
and they thought if they told anyone they would lose business as a question
of their sanity. I never read any reports of other people in the area at
that time or seeing any thing. I have been very interested in UFO's
since and my brother and I have both witnessed other UFO's that have done
amazing flying feats in Central Nebraska.

- Thank you to the witness for the really
interesting report.

- Sarnia, Ontario Huge Dull Orange
Sphere Shoots Into The Sky Then Stops
-
- UFO Sighting, August 1977
-
- Joe Dietrich & passenger.
-
- It was barely a month past my 30th birthday,
early August 1977, I was dining out with friends in a favorite downtown
Buffalo NY restaurant. Time was running out for me in Buffalo for
in a few weeks I would be heading to Key West Florida to begin a new life.
But on this particular summer night I was to make a journey that was destined
to become one of my life's most memorable experiences.
-
- I have made this trip several times so
it's a fairly predictable route from Buffalo NY to Flint, Michigan, no
surprises. This was to be my last visit with my mom and sisters knowing
we probably wouldn't see each other for many months. I wanted
to get an early evening start out of Buffalo, but dinner with
friends went quite late so I didn't hit the road until about 10:pm.
I was upset at myself for making such a late departure knowing it would
inconvenience my family up in Flint with me arriving in the wee hours of
the morning...but I was determined to go that night.
-
- Even considering the late time of night
I actually felt rested and alert. I usually preferred driving at
night, as I found it to be peaceful with little distraction and this
night gave me time to reflect on my upcoming move to Florida. I was
all too familiar with this route having taken it often. Because my
vintage '52 Ford pickup truck had a top speed of only 55 mph it would take
me about 5 hours to drive from Buffalo to Flint.....4-hours for everyone
else!
-
- Heading north out of downtown Buffalo
towards the Canadian border, passing through customs, and over the Peace
bridge, I was on my way. A few hundred yards into Canadian
territory I spotted a college kid on the side of the road holding a sign
"to Michigan". He was small of stature and appeared
harmless, and I figured this passenger would make the trip less lonely
and give me some interesting conversation, so I stopped to
pick up the hitchhiker.
-
- But to my dismay the young man was very
tired and had very little to say, in fact he napped on and off during most
of the long drive. So, to keep my mind occupied and me awake, I kept
the truck radio on...and the volume low, so it would not wake the
sleeper. I was remembering how scenic the Canadian countryside is during
daytime with it's rolling farmland and picturesque villages...but at night
it is dark and still, the towns are practically invisible, and now it's
just me and my passenger in my old truck heading westward down this 2-lane
winding highway on a warm August night.
-
- I have been driving for almost 3-hours
now through the Ontario countryside passing the towns of St. Catherine's,
Hamilton, and London. We are now about a half-hour from the border
town of Sarnia, on highway 22 (I believe), it's about 2:am pitch dark outside,
the summer night is warm and the truck windows are rolled down.
It's a beautiful night on this lonely country highway and my old Ford pickup
is the only vehicle on the road. My hitchhiking passenger and myself
are engaged in idle conversation when suddenly he is startled by something
outside. He is looking out his passenger window, head slightly turned
upward and exclaims, "...look over there!...what is that light above
the house?" I couldn't see what he was looking at due
to the angle of the object and my position in the driver's seat, so while
trying to keep the truck on the road, and slowly applying the brakes, I
leaned over my passenger's shoulder to get a better look at the object
he was so excited about. With one hand on the steering wheel,
stretching to get a look out his window, I was amazed at what I saw.
Here was a 2-story white farmhouse set back maybe 100 feet from the
highway but directly above the house was a large, glowing, dull orange
ball or sphere almost floating or hovering in the air nearly touching
the peak of the roof. It was an ominous sight, as you could clearly
see the outline of the sphere through the few tall trees which surrounded
the house.
-
- We were both awestruck. "Oh
my God" I said as I was trying to bring the truck to a stop, "I
have to get a better look at this". I told my passenger
to keep his eyes on the object, as I brought the old truck to a slow stop.
Since we were the only vehicle on the road I stopped right in the middle
of the highway, there was no time to pull over. Not wanting to waste
time, I quickly jumped out of the truck and onto the pavement to get a
full view of this magnificent orange glowing sphere hovering very
still over the farmhouse. We stood there in absolute silence and
gazed at this big, orange ball which was about half the size of the farmhouse.
-
- Unfortunately I was in for a huge disappointment. While
standing on the highway and trying to analyze this incredible object
I reached over and slammed the truck door closed. Almost at that
exact moment, and without making the slightest sound, the sphere shot quickly
up into the night sky like a speeding bullet. My eyes fixated on the object
as it streaked way up into the sky for a distance of what seemed like a
mile, then came to a sudden stop then resumed its flight into space at
a constant 45 degree angle until it was completely out of our sight.
The "escape" flight from the farmhouse was at an exceptional
rate of speed which seemed to take 3-seconds to make it's disappearance
into space. We were quite disappointed that our encounter with the object
was so brief. I calculated that our total viewing time for this extraordinary
event was barely one-minute, if even that.
-
- We were quite stunned at what had just
taken place. I said to my passenger, "do you believe what we
have just witnessed?" He was speechless and I was in mild shock
and now more alert than I had been all night. Since my passenger
had the object in his view almost twice as long as I did, I asked him to
describe it in detail to me, as I could recall only a large, round sphere
which was positioned over the house. The passenger described it as
more of an oval shaped object, but also very large. Both of us witnessed
the quick exit, heard to total silence, as we looked at each other
in absolute amazement. I was cursing the fact that the object did
not stay in our view longer for our own selfish investigation. This
was the opportunity of a lifetime, here right in front of us, for only
one minute, and then gone forever. It was almost as if by stopping
the truck on the highway we sort of startled it and it then had to make
a quick getaway.
-
- Back in my old truck and on the road
again we are high on adrenaline. As we continued westward towards
the Michigan-Canadian border at Sarnia, we could not stop talking about
what we had just seen. In my mind I had to challenge any other possible
explanation for this event. I am basically a skeptic who does not
wish to get carried away with blind emotion where a simple or obvious explanation
might present itself. Therefore, I began to eliminate some possible
causes for this event:
-
- Was it:
-
- 1) An aircraft. NO. No engine noise,
no noise at all. Completely silent.
- 2) A Balloon. NO. Could not
move that quickly or turn at that angle.
- 3) The Sun....NO. The right
color of the setting sun, but wrong time of day.
- Wrong position in sky. Too fast.
-
- 4) Lightning...NO. No sound.
Stationary. Geometric shape and exit.
- 5) Other........YES. Most likely
extraterrestrial or UFO.
-
- My passenger and I agreed that this object
was something from "out there"...but where that is, is unknown.
We were obviously not meant to study it or get closer to it than we did.
Whatever was taking place in the space directly over the farmhouse or maybe
even inside the farmhouse is not known. All the lights in the house
were off, the residents were probably sleeping. (since it was 2:AM)
Many questions were left unanswered.
-
- As I approached the guard station at
the Canadian/American border at Sarnia I decided NOT to tell our sighting
story to the officers. I am confident that what I saw with my own
eyes was real. I was never threatened by this object, no harm was
ever directed my way, so there was no cause for alarm. I leave Canada
with an experience that validates my longtime belief that we are indeed
not alone in this vast universe.
-
- One month later I moved, as planned,
to Key West, Florida. I related this experience to others who would
then give me that incredulous gaze that so many eye witnesses get
when we bring up the subject of UFO's. But that's ok. I received
a little validation a few months later in a Key West restaurant when I
was introduced to a couple of tourists from Ontario. I mentioned
my sphere sighting to them and they were not at all surprised....they
explained that the newspapers reported many sightings in and around Ontario
during that particular month. I just smiled.
-
- My deepest thanks to Joe for a wonderful
report and for retelling his experience in an audio report. Joe also granted
permission to use his full name. Joe and I both would love to hear from
anyone from Ontario who may have been in and around this area in August
of 1977 who may have witnessed this event. Please contact Brian Vike, Director
of HBCC UFO Research at: hbccufo@telus.net

- New London, New Hampshire 6 Orbs In
Tight Inverted L Formation
-
- Date: Nov-Oct 1990-1993?
- Time: Around 7:30 p.m.
-
- Objects: White round like incandescent
light bulb color number: Six per formation of inverted L shape.
- Duration of sighting: 3-5 minutes.
- Number of witnesses: 2
- Short descript: 6 orbs in
tight inverted L formation reshuffled positions (maintaining original
formation) then shot off.
- Weather: clear.
-
- I have a sighting actually that happened
to me back in the 90s. I live in New London, New Hampshire USA. I
am 34 years old an I work at a high tech GIS company. I had kept quiet
about it for a long time. I did file a report of this to NUFORC last year
and they never contacted me back. I also contacted MUFON here in New Hampshire
and nobody ever contacted me back either. Perhaps because so much time
had passed from when I had the sighting.
-
- The exact year I do not remember. I
do remember that there was mysterious crash of an unidentified object into
a mountain nearby Mt. Kearsarge in Warner, NH (the Winslow State Forest)
The sighting that I had happened roughly a week after this. They had Civil
Air patrol search the whole mountain for any crashed plane but nothing
was ever found. It was mid November I think. I live about 8 miles
from that mountain. I believe the person who saw the white ball of light
go into the mountain was a clergyman from a local church. I would probably
need to go to the library and look at microfilms of local papers to find
the articles.
-
- The time is sketchy ('90- '92 maybe)
but I will never forget what I saw. Now let me get into that. It
was probably about 7:30pm or so definitely after dark. I was on the
phone with my brother who at the time was going to University of Connecticut. We
have a big bay window looking south and I noticed some lights at first
that I thought were stars but they were moving through the trees and they
were in a funny tight formation.
-
- There where two formations, at what
I best can describe as inverted italicized letter Ls., with the short
part of the L pointing to the left side. The objects were roughly
the size of dimes just for distance perceptions sake (not sure
how far away they were but the angle was as such you were looking straight
ahead). There were 6 per grouping. They were across a field just above
some trees (maples) and they were luminous as if you were looking
down at the top of a light bulb that color and luminosity.
-
- They seemed to just drift (from W to
E) until they pulled an unbelievable 'reshuffling' maneuver. Shortly
before they did this they came to a stop, where the two that comprised
the short L changed position with two in the "stem" section.
Then seconds after they did this the formations, they shot off almost
in a blink of an eye. I was able to go get my mother when I had first noticed
these things, and she had just seen them right when they were doing this
reshuffling and then shot off. It was intriguing to me because whatever
these things were they were going in the direction of Mt Kearsarge.
Now this whole event happened in about 3-5 minutes.
-
- We do have some airports around (Lebabon,
Concord, Manchester, Springfield VT) and one Air Guard unit in Burlington
VT at their airport. But they mainly flew F-15s and A-10s that are extremely
noisy and fly near 1,000ft in pairs of only two and only during the daylight
hours . None that I can tell can pull off maneuvers like these things did.
-
- I have no cause to make this stuff up
and I've only sort of put this on the 'back burner' because it appears
me and my mother are the only ones to have caught sight of these things.
Which is disappointing to me.
-
- When I saw the "Phoenix Lights"
sightings on a TV program about UFOs, I thought to myself in a way that's
sort of what I saw a few years before them in smaller grouping, although
they didn't exhibit motion and speed of flares. They looked like big
light bulbs
-
- Sorry to ramble like this but it is something
that has always nagged me in the back of my mind. From the radio program
you sounded like someone that would be very interested in hearing this.
It has just bugged me for years.
-
- If you want to contact me regarding
this (and if you could let me know if anyone has seen anything similar
to this anywhere else or in New England even better) that would be
great. Please only through e-mail: (removed). I wish I had kept better
detail of when it happened. But my mind is clear on what I saw. You never
forget something like this.
-
- It's just amazing nobody else saw what
I did. I was expecting the next day it happened people to be talking about
it at least or maybe there would be a newspaper story.
-
- Thank you so much for your time.
-
- Thank you very much to the witness for
the excellent report.

- Phoenix, Arizona Two Bright Orange Triangular
Shaped Objects
-
- Date: July, 1998
- Time: 7:00 a.m.
- Number of witnesses: 6
- Number of objects: 2
- Shape of objects: Triangular
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: I
remember that it was in the summer and we had gone to Phoenix to stay for
awhile. We had arrived with some family friends to stay and we were heading
back home which was Houston back in that time. We were going to the bus
terminal in the car of our friends because we had traveled by bus when
all of a sudden my mom says, "Look guys! What's that?
-
- All the pair of eyes snapped where she
was pointing which was almost right in front of us and we saw two bright
orange triangle shaped objects zigzagging toward the sun. It was as though
the normal color of them was silver but reflected the light off of the
sun making it look like an orange metallic color object. The strange part
was that they were in one place and then in another moment they weren't
there to only reappear in a different place. This happened in a zig-zagging
movement and they were like an obtuse triangular objects, one side longer
then the other, and lights sparkled around them. It almost looked like
they were racing each other because one would follow another closely behind,
only that they would disappear and reappear but in the same position as
before and nearer to the sun. This happened for about half a minute.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the interesting
report.

- Tel Aviv, Israel One To Four Strange
Unusual Lights
-
- Date: July 6, 2004
- Time: 21:55
-
- Shape: Light
- Duration:45 min
- One to four strange unusual lights appear
then dim, disappear, and reappear over Jaffa/Tel Aviv, Israel.
-
- Shortly before 22:00 my spouse and I
were on patio, 12 stories above street. I noticed two lights about 2000
feet above Jaffa Port, which is located 3 miles south of us. At first we
assumed it was helicopters, but the light had pink and blue pale color,did
not move, and dimmed before disappearing! One light at 12 o'clock the other
at 6 o'clock position, moved very slowly to a 1 and 7 o'clock position,
got dimmer and disappeared and immediately one appeared hundreds of feet
above where the first two were. Over time that light dimmed and another
two appeared, one of those dimmed and disappeared
- then the second disappeared. No lights
observed for a few minuets, then two appeared and moved very slowly to
the east and behind a neighboring tall building, and view obstructed. It
was about 22:40.
-
- During this episode of 45 min, a small
four passenger plane flew past our location,on the coast heading south
toward Jaffa,where lights would be visible to pilot. During this episode
there also were a total of two commercial airline planes that descended
from the west,that is from over the Mediterranean Sea to approach Tel Aviv
airports.
-
- This sighting, was not helicopters, which
do travel north and south along coast daily due to events in Gaza.
-
- No photos taken, second observer, my
spouse, went to bed, and I did not want to miss any changes in lights.
I never thought it would last for 45 minuets. We had moved here recently,
and our household goods had not arrived, so we
- had no Camcorder or such devices for
photos to record this fascinating nighttime event!
-
- Thank you to the witness for the interesting
report.

- Regents Park, Brisbane Australia Amazing
Lighting Storm & Unknown Objects
-
- Date: December 28, 2005
- Time: 9.30 p.m.
-
- Number of witnesses: 1
- Number of objects: 2
- Shape of objects: Round I think
?
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: I
love to film storms and this night we had two guest come to visit us from
Melbourne. I got my video camera to film the lightning, as I love to get
still shots and print them out.
-
- I also send video footage to channel
ten news when it is a good storm, so far I have sent one and they gave
it the headline as it was an amazing lighting strike that struck 5 times
in one spot and real close and bigger and fatter than I have ever seen.
-
- I am so fascinated by them!! But
this night I was busy socializing while filming so I wasn't exactly paying
much attention, just filming while chatting. my guest however thought the
show was great as they have never seen lightning strike like that before.
-
- When I played it back a week or
so ago I noticed two black objects traveling upwards in a straight line
and then one went to the right. Now we have a flight path behind us,
but these were not traveling like planes, plus the storm was real bad and
striking every second or so, so a plane I think would not travel that close
to a huge lightning bolt. I have heard that UFO's like lightning
because of the electric power that comes from them and how they hang around
storms but, I have never been interested in them so I never went looking
for them and that's when it happened.
-
- I have the still shots but unfortunately
we have taped over the video footage as we went on holidays and needed
the tape plus I didn't think it was important but now after talking to
friends when showed them the photos they said it could be a UFO and I should
have never have taped over it, but hey I wasn't that interested until now.
-
- I will continue to video electric storms
and if I see any I will keep the footage and send it in.
-
- If you would like the photos I will send
them to you. The only thing I did to them was change them from bmp to jpg
as to be able to send them via internet in a smaller format as you know
bmp are larger files and jpegs are smaller.
-
- Hope you can tell me what they are. Thank
you.

- Newburgh, Indiana
- Silver Triangular Shaped UFO
-
- Date: Early January 2006
- Time: Approx: 10:30 a.m.
-
- Number of witnesses: 1
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: Triangular
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: I
have seen that type of UFO that was just recently seen in Sonora,
California. It was the drawing that caught my attention, not the actual
photos. It was a sunny day with a few clouds in the sky. I saw a bird on
top of a telephone poll (I was in a rural area.) and I looked at it in
my binoculars (7x35). As I was watching the bird I saw a flash in the sky
above the bird. It was silver and triangular and angular, It was beautiful.
And it was hauling butt. It was at mid height in the sky and seemed to
be turning and climbing in a southern direction coming from the east. I
lost it in the sun. It only lasted about 10 seconds. No contrails, no noise
no wings. If I hadn't looked at that bird I would have never noticed it.
It's size in my lens was about a third of the size of a dime. This was
no jet. Like I wrote, it looked very much like the sketch of the mysterious
object in Sonora, California.
-
- Thank you to the witness for their report.
