Escondio, California Multiple UFOs And Power Outage
Date: Summer 68
Time: Evening.
Location of Sighting: Escondio, CA.
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 8
Shape of objects: 7=X-shaped &1 large disk?
Full Description of event/sighting: First one 1968 and second one 1969. Early evening, myself and 3 friends all about 18 years old were at Felicitates Park, on the south side of Escondido. We were sitting on rocks watching clouds, talking etc. It was still sunny, but there were some large cloud formations. As we were observing one that looked like a upside down hanged man, there was a huge explosion. The whole sky turned pink especially the clouds, as we were wondering what the heck. We saw these things buzzing in and out of the clouds.
It must of been around 8:30 by then when it had finally darkened, and we could see these little things better. There were 3 pairs of them that flew in this perfect synchronized pattern, which was hard to believe as their flight pattern was similar to a drawing done by 3 year old who has eaten to much sugar, and is scribbling with a pencil. Then they would stop, dead still. There was always one man (ship) out, that ship would fly into one of the pairs, they would all change partners and continue their 'dance'. My thoughts were that they looked like Spoolies (a rubber curler for women's hair in the 50's). They were X shaped. They had something that could not be seen as it moved to fast. It could of been blades, but they were on the top and the bottom of the X and when they moved it looked like this: X___________ ______X.
The movements were to fast to make out and were red. So fast all we could see was the line of movement. We remembered this as a long happening, (possible missing time) Sometime through this I saw a large very bright light, but twice the size of Venus. It made a warp type move, turning colors as it disappeared. We continued watching and sometime latter, it did the opposite and when it came back all the lights in the area went out? One of the guys had a glow in the dark watch, it was 9:00 pm. They (the 7) did a few more moves, then they all went into the light and it warped out again.
The next day and for the next 2 weeks I kept track of the Escondido paper and there was a blurb, something like "plane explodes over Mira Mar, more later. Well it was not anywhere near Mira Mar or at least it did not look like it, it looked more to be over S. Rancho Bernardo or Poway. This was the first of 2 sightings I had in this area. The second being a golden disk on the ground, this sighting also was with 3 other people. One woman who was with me both times. Again the observation was for a prolonged time.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Eston Bank, Middlesborough, North Yorkshire, England Cigar Shaped UFO
Date: 1981/1983
Time: 3:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Cigar, cylindrical.
Weather Conditions: Good.
Description: Hi, this sighting was in the early 80's when I was 20/21 and this is the 1st & only time I have shared this info;
The sighting was on a clear Saturday late afternoon over Eston hills, Teesside, with a clear sky the cylindrical shaped hovered over/around the top of Eston Bank overlooking the Tees valley moving slowly, it then darted across towards Nunthorpe 3-4 miles away, still overlooking Teesside, after a wile it continued to move in the same direction to what appeared to be over Yarm, a further 10 miles away. From my vantage point which was Pinchinthorpe nr Guisborough ( for those who know the area ) I had a perfect panoramic view of its movements, and knowing the area well I was able to gauge its relative distance & speed, this was clearly something unique and could cover 10 miles in 8 seconds ish, then change direction instantly or hover. Afterwards it veered off relatively slowly, away and up from my view point at about 30 degrees and north east until it hit clouds. That's it. I did look in the local paper & listened on local radio at the time but found no other reports, maybe someone can add to this sighting ?

Calera, Alabama A Boomerang Shaped UFO
Date: Around January 1985
Time: Approx: 7:30 - 8:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Calera, Alabama.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Boomerang.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was outside of our house sitting on the hood of my car listening to a basketball game over the radio, because the station came in better on my car radio. There was some white cumulous clouds in the night sky. I was looking up at the clouds when I saw a large boomerang shaped, orange colored, glowing object moving across the sky almost above where I was. It moved at a quick pace, and made no noise at all. I saw the orange glow reflect off of the clouds as it glided across the sky. There was no time to get anyone else to see it before it disappeared over the trees out of view. I was astonished, I had never seen anything like that before or since. I was reluctant even now some 20 odd years later to tell about this. But I know I saw something unusual. I was hoping to see if somebody saw anything like what I did. There are some similar stories I have seen, with orange color, and boomerang shaped objects, but others talk about seeing lights on the objects they see, or shapes. All I saw was a glowing solid orange boomerang.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Richmond, Virginia Unknown Object Shines Cone Of Light Downward
Date: May 24, 2008
Time: Evening.
I found this header and description at ufoinfo.com. I have been putting "May 24th, 2008 UFO" into Google for months now and this is the first time I've come across this item. It sounds similar to something I saw that evening.
I was outside smoking a cigarette and as I always do. I scanned the sky for SKEDS flying over head. I noticed an object moving at a fair clip at about 50 degrees elevation on an azimuth of approx. 260 degrees from my position in Richmond, Virginia. The direction of flight was south to north. I had this object in sight for about 11 seconds. My initial thought was a satellite, because there were no position lights or anti-collision beacons. Any airliner. I don't care how high on a clear night these lights are visible. I've been pinpointing and watching space objects since Sputnik went up. Brightness was similar to any of the three stars in Orion's belt.
After I zeroed in on the object, I saw the strangest thing, if it had been a nearby helicopter I would describe a searchlight to you. A cone of light appeared, it was pointed straight down from the object. Now I'm thinking aircraft with a landing light on, no way that can't be. The light is on for a count of three and then fades out. Instant on and then fade out, just like the description in that sighting from Winnipeg. How big was the cone, say a 200 mile high orbit I estimate a length for the cone at 15 miles and a base diameter of 6 or 7 miles. After the cone fades out I'm totally engrossed and am saying to myself, WTH!! and the object then vanishes.
Now it gets even weirder, just to the south, azimuth about 195 degrees there is a streak across the sky ! It was either a 5000 mph fast mover of some sort or it was an instant on 1 second burst from a laser. This was no meteorite. Trajectory was totally flat and direction was east to west. Light was white. I mean this was a fast streak of something. The streak would not have come near the other event based on it's direction of travel, but my single observation point can not be totally accurate, but I'm putting my best estimations in this description. Another point about that night... I stayed outside and observed the sky for the next 3 hours and I didn't see a SKED at any time! I don't care what time it is ..if you look at the sky here you'll see airliners all night long as major air traffic corridors pass over central Virginia. Was it restricted airspace for a test? Did airline pilots see the same thing I saw?
Well I don't know what I saw, a UFO. A show off UFO or a space based particle or laser weapon test? I am 61 years old, I was an air traffic controller in my younger days.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Don Mills, Ontario Over The 401 Highway Huge Green Object Lights Up The Sky
Date: September/November 2008
Time: 9:00 -9:30 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Don Mills, over the 401.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round with tails.
Full Description of event/sighting: Hello, I'm not sure if this was a meteor, but I honestly do not believe it was as I have seen many meteors and they were nothing at all like these. First time was early September and I was looking out my 20th floor balcony westward and I saw quite low, I'd say nearly the level my building is at, a huge burning green ball of fire, falling slightly horizontal, but definitely towards the earth. This broke into a few orange chunks then faded out. At first I thought I saw a plane going down, It was huge and it reminded me of seeing challenger blowing up! Then two months later I was sitting at my computer and I looked towards the same balcony windows and saw out the corner of my eyes the exact same thing. Except now it's towards the east I saw it, and it's larger, brighter and doesn't turn into orange smaller pieces, just flashes and fades out. Once again, quite low, over the 401 highway, and huge! I couldn't believe what I was seeing, the same thing again. I couldn't sleep at all that night and I definitely couldn't comprehend what my eyes had seen. It looked like a piece of the sky was on green fire and only for a few brief seconds. There was no way this was a comet, it was so low to the earth and it looked as if I could reach out and touch it.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

St. Catharines, Ontario Fireball Shoots Across The Sky
Date: First week in November 2008
Time: Approx: 7:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: My home in St. Catharines (backyard).
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Fireball.
Full Description of event/sighting: Ball of light (No trail) faster than a plane. No sound at all. Rushed across the sky from east to west. The light was brighter than an airplane (we have several planes that fly over head and are used of the sight and sounds of them).
This is the second time that I witnessed this sort of light. The first being over 15 years ago. But then just two short days after I witnessed it for the third time in Burlington around 6:30am as I was headed for work. It was much faster this time and shot across the sky again headed westward. What are these fireballs? I have been reading today about several of these sightings and oddly comforted by the knowledge that I am not alone.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Cote Saint Luc, Quebec Major UFO Incident - Multiple Objects Seen Up Close
Date: November 4, 2008
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Cote Saint Luc, Quebec.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1+3
Shape of objects:
Full Description of event/sighting: I went out to the balcony for a smoke. My girlfriend's son was there as well sitting on a chair. It was about 10:00pm. while we were talking when I noticed something that appeared in front of us. (we live on the 9th floor.) This thing came out of nowhere and it was about 20 meters higher than us and about 20 meters in front of us. (just a bit over eye level). It was about 4- 5 meters, by 1-2 meter, in size. It was in the shape of the number eight. This thing was almost translucent but you can clearly see the outline of it. The object made no sound and it is very hard to describe the way this thing was moving, but I will try to give you an idea. Just imagine a big solid number eight that is almost rotating in movement. It was moving forward and upward at the same time, going north. (shot to north). Since it was moving upwards, I looked up and I could not believe what I am seeing.
Above this thing (about 300-500 meters above it and a bit forward) there was this glowing white light that was moving at the same speed (slow, and much slower than an air plane). The object seems as the thing was following the light and going towards the light. We were trying to figure out what the hell is this thing, but could not come with a logical explanation. About 30 seconds later a second object appeared out of nowhere (from the same location as the first one came from). It was exactly the same shape as the first one (translucent and shaped as the number eight). The second object or thing was moving at the same speed and at the same direction, but in a different motion. Imagine a solid number eight on it's side flat, moving in a "right left" motion. At this point I told the kid to go inside and bring a camera, but both of us were like, "frozen" watching these things. (I am not sure we would have seen anything on the pictures, since it was very dark, gray night and these things were translucent and you can only see the outlines). I myself did not want to go inside for the camera because I wanted to observe every second of it. (it was more important for me to look at the objects and try to figure out what's going on).
About a 1 minute later a 3rd object appeared out of nowhere from the same location as the other 2 came from. It also looked the same as the first two. The 3rd one was a "standing" number eight and was moving in a "back and forth" rocking motion. The 3rd one was moving much faster, as if it was trying to catch up to the others. This whole thing took about 2 minutes and left me wondering for days. It may sound crazy, but the feeling I got was, that the very bright white object was kind of a guide for the 3 other things and these things seems more like a living organism that came from another dimension, or at least capable of appearing at a place of choice. I'm scanning the web for local news or any posts of other witnesses who saw these things, but so far nothing came up.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Niagara Falls, Ontario Round Saucer Shaped UFO
Date: November 5, 2008
Time: 6:30 p.m.
Location of Sighting: My home.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Roundish saucer like.
Full Description of event/sighting: I went out to put the goat away for the night. I looked up sky to see what kind of night it was going to be. When I looked up I noticed a large orange looking star in the sky. I thought it looked a bit strange so I called for my husband to look. He said it looks like a fireball. So I continued putting the goat away then I watched it for a minute and noticed that it was moving very slowly sideways. It looked as if it where going towards Welland. So I went in the house and grabbed the telescope and took a closer look. I saw 5 lights, 1 very bright one in the front and 2 duller ones on each side which made it appear round saucer like. I watched it move slowly across the sky for about 20-25 mins. Until it got to far away and went behind trees. But before it went behind the trees, it looked as if there was a flashing red light under it that I did not notice earlier. There was no noise that I could hear and it was a very clear and calm night. I watched it for probably a good half hour. It was very interesting to see for myself. I've only ever heard of them, never witnessed it for myself and it was a great experience. My 3 kids also got to see it too.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Fort Erie, Ontario Two Round Stationary Lights Disappear
Date: November 6, 2008
Time: Evening.
Location of Sighting: Fort Erie.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: As I was setting up my telescope I noticed in the south east sky two round lights which were extremely bright and very high in the sky. They were just sitting there as if they were observing and they were very close together. Then in a instant they were gone. I never have I seen something such as this.
Additional Information:
The color was the same as the stars. If they weren't so bright they would have blended in with the stars. They were not blinking, no fading in or out and they were just a continuous steady light. There was no sound associated with them and they did not go in any direction when they left. It was as if someone shut off a light switch, first one, then the other, they were just gone. I have spent many years observing the night sky and some daytime observing as well. I have spent a few years in the military, so I am familiar with most military equipment and I have never seen anything like what I saw that night. The weather condition was clear and somewhat warm, considering the time of year. If there is anything more I can do please feel free to let me know.
P.S. - They each were about the size of a very large pea.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Toronto, Ontario Two Star-Like Objects
Date: November 6, 2008
Time: Approx: 6:00 or 7:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Windermere Ave, facing southeast.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Round - star like.
Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian, I was just returning home and looking up at the stars while walking up to the front door when I noticed two star like objects that were moving in unison in a southeasterly direction. They were very high and bright (about 2x the size of the stars around them). At arms length they were about 4 inches apart. Speed was constant (about 2x the speed of a high flying jet that would put out contrail). Sighting only lasted a few seconds due to obstructed view of neighbors high roofline. I am sending this e-mail as it sounds identical to the November 7 post, 'Fort Erie, Ontario two round stationary lights disappear.

North Richlands Hills, Texas Three UFOs Split Up And Travel In Different Directions
Date: November 7, 2008
Time: 2:38 a.m.
Location of Sighting: North Richlands Hills Field.
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: Three round objects very, very bright in the sky which looked like they were one big object. As the objects swirled towards the earth they split into 3 different objects and 2 of which zoomed away instantly and the 1 object came very close to the earth and seemed to be hovering close. I may be younger than most who post, but I saw what I saw. I did not believe in extraterrestrial beings before I saw these things. I don't know what to call them because I have never experienced something so frightful in my life. Me and my four friends were out like any other night and not expecting anything and I saw these fires in the sky. The second thing was I have never seen anything move so fast and the movements they made were nothing like that of a plane or helicopter. They were jerky movements, very sudden and could move from one place to another in an instant.
The one that came closest to us was so bright that it hurt my eyes to stare at it. Before they left it made a very, very odd movement, then before you knew it, it zoomed off into the great abyss that me and you know as space. I have never experienced this before and I know how many people can be crazy about these things, but rather it was government or if it was something "else" I want you to understand I saw what I saw.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Watauga, Texas Witnesses Confirm Richland Hills UFO Sighting

Time: Approx: 8:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: NE sky Watauga, TX.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: Watauga is very close to N. Richland Hills where I see someone reported the sighting of 3 round objects on 11/07. I just wanted to write and let you know that on the 7th when I got back from the store my grandson (16) took me outside and showed me where he had seen what he said at first he thought were 3 meteors. He said they came down 1, 2, 3, but stopped and formed a straight line. Then they went down together out of sight behind trees. He said they were star sized, so faraway, but I wanted to confirm the Richland Hills sighting on the same night, even though a different time. Seems something was going on that night. I went out the next night around 8:00pm to see if there was anything and I saw 2 what I thought were satellites-( Can satellites still reflect at 8:00?) If not then they were something else-very fast and no blinking lights-Anyway, I just wanted to confirm that Richland Hills sighting.
The Richland Hills sighting can be found at: http://www.hbccufo. org/modules. php?name= News&file=article&sid=5334

Birkenhead, Merseyside, UK A Bright Orange Ball
Date: November 7, 2008
Time: 8.45 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Above my house.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was having a fag at my back door when I saw a bright orange ball that appeared to be going up in the sky. I thought it was a firework at first, or a flare, but then I realized it was not going up, it was traveling across the sky over my house. I shouted my wife and she saw it too. As it went over my house it was still a bright orange round shaped object, but it also had a blurry outer orange ring around it. The outer ring was fairly faint. The object was silent. I have no idea how high the object was but it appeared to travel at the speed of a helicopter. We both ran through the house to see the object from the front. It carried on in a straight line then seemed to disappear. I am quite a skeptic about such matters, but I am lost for an explanation.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Marsh Lake, Yukon A Large Circular Light With A Halo
Date: November 8, 2008
Time: 1:15 a.m.
Location of Sighting: Marsh Lake, Yukon.
Number of witnesses:
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Too far too tell.
HBCC UFO Research Note: I have requested the video footage of what the witness taped.
Full Description of event/sighting: I'm a recent transplant to the Yukon, living and working in Marsh Lake. The other night I was out by the lake admiring the Aurora for the first time, when I noticed what I thought was an airplane flying above the lake. It appeared to be as high, but it didn't move other than a hovering motion. After a few minutes a bright light appeared half-way between the lake and the object. It was a large circular light with a halo of light around it that seemed to increase in diameter and approaching my way. I moved upstairs to get a better glimpse and the bright light disappeared, but the hovering lights--red, green, blue--kept hovering for about half an hour. What is so odd, that there is such a sparse population and I have never seen any lights appear from across the lake.
About half an hour later, an amber light appeared from across the light. It was hovering as well.
(I have video footage if requested).

Near Gilmore Road And Central Fort Erie, Ontario Another Triangular UFO Seen
Date: November 10, 2008
Time: 10:50 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Near Gilmore road and Central Fort Erie.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle.
Full Description of event/sighting: This is the second triangle I have witnessed in almost 1 week. I caught a glimpse of it cruising low over my friends house at 10:50 p.m. I stepped outside and gliding over me silently was a UFO. I called to my friend to look, then ran to my house and ran to the backyard to stand on my pool deck to see it, as it went off down by the water. It was moving off over towards the river and hovering fairly low. The craft had the tell tale 3 bright white lights with the pulsing red one.
This is my second sighting in just over a week and I have been talking and asking people if they have seen strange things and what I've been hearing from other people, neighbors and family friends I talk to, seems many have been seeing strange things the past weeks over Fort Erie and always the tell tale bright lights with the pulsing red one
There are many sightings that are going unreported and shrugged off as strange, but not alarming. Well now I'm alarmed as this is two UFOs I have seen now and that's two to many, honestly. I've also noticed the mass postings from the Niagara region on this site and if they are other life forms, why are they so interested in Niagara falls and fort Erie?
Thank you to the witness for their report.
