Six New Photographs of the Strange Craft Taken 05-16-07
Capitola, CA-05-16-07-

This week I was visting my fiance's parents in Capitola (we were actually there to tell them about our engagement, in fact). We were eating dinner on the back porch when we noticed this "object" sort of hovering in the sky. The camera was still out from earlier so I grabbed it and tried to get some clear shots of it.

It took off over the roof shortly after, so I ran into the street in front of the house to follow, trying to get more shots without wobbling around too much (which was harder than it sounds). It then came in lower over a telephone pole, where I was able to get a few more pictures, before it finally took off into the distance pretty fast. I thought it was gone but noticed it was still visible, so I grabbed a few more pictures.

At one point a car stopped to look as well. No one had any idea what this thing was but everyone in the car was visibly freaked out by it. Once it was gone they told me to call the news and drove off. :) I'm not sure who else saw it in the neighborhood since I don't live down there, but I'm sure at least a few others must have noticed it.

It was way too weird and way too close to go unnoticed. Once it was gone and I caught my breath I could barely stop my hands from shaking for the next hour or so. Needless to say, this is all we talked about for the rest of the night. None of us can figure out what it was (and that's saying something, because my fiance's dad is a mechanical engineer).

We sent a copy of the photos to their newspaper but haven't heard back yet. I dunno how long that kind of thing takes.

There's also some writing on this thing, which I didn't recognize (and I read both English and Hindi). You can see it in a few of the pictures.

Anyway, I created this Flickr account for the best of these pictures. I have no clue what this thing is so I'm putting it out there to see if anyone else saw it.

UFO Pictures Increase in Detail and Number
UFO UFO Pictures Increase in Detail and Number
-are we witnessing a 'wave'?-by Brendan Burton

May 21, 2007- UFO pictures are usually blurry, grainy blobs. At best, a shiny round object far away in the distance.

But recently - since the current 'flap' which has hit the United States and Europe, a number of sightings have come forward which come with detailed pictures showing a UFO up close. The first one was the Coast to Coast UFO - featured in the American Chronicle last week. As mentioned in the article, within a few days, another series of UFO pictures came in from Lake Tahoe.

Within hours, experts were analysing these detailed UFO pictures trying to determine whether or not the pictures were CGI 'fakes' or not. One expert at the Open Minds Forum provided a 3D rendition of the object for perspective. Another researcher undertook a detailed analysis of the the two and provided an overlay which showed that the two objects were probably different. Indeed, there are substantial differences in the two UFOs, so we can rule out that this is some 'model'. There have been attempts by CGI artists to replicate these images - but to date there has been nothing quite like the first or second batch of pictures.

Today I heard of yet another, similar shaped UFO. This time the pictures came from a witness in Capitola. There are six new pictures in total and they can all be viewed at Six More Photographs Taken of Strange Craft.

The picture shown at the beginning of this article is one of the latest from Capitola.

Here is the witness account of what he saw:

"This week I was visiting my fiance's parents in Capitola (we were actually there to tell them about our engagement, in fact). We were eating dinner on the back porch when we noticed this "object" sort of hovering in the sky. The camera was still out from earlier so I grabbed it and tried to get some clear shots of it. It took off over the roof shortly after, so I ran into the street in front of the house to follow, trying to get more shots without wobbling around too much (which was harder than it sounds). It then came in lower over a telephone pole, where I was able to get a few more pictures, before it finally took off into the distance pretty fast. I thought it was gone but noticed it was still visible, so I grabbed a few more pictures.

At one point a car stopped to look as well. No one had any idea what this thing was but everyone in the car was visibly freaked out by it. Once it was gone they told me to call the news and drove off. :) I'm not sure who else saw it in the neighborhood since I don't live down there, but I'm sure at least a few others must have noticed it. It was way too weird and way too close to go unnoticed. Once it was gone and I caught my breath I could barely stop my hands from shaking for the next hour or so. Needless to say, this is all we talked about for the rest of the night. None of us can figure out what it was (and that's saying something, because my fiance's dad is a mechanical engineer).

We sent a copy of the photos to their newspaper but haven't heard back yet. I dunno how long that kind of thing takes.

There's also some writing on this thing, which I didn't recognize (and I read both English and Hindi). You can see it in a few of the pictures."

So what IS going on here? First we had the O'Hare UFO. Then we had the Geurnsey UFO. The along comes the Coast to Coast UFO, followed by a similar UFO in Lake Tahoe and today we have the very latest appearing in Capitola. All major reports - and we're not even half-way into 2007.

It has been postulated by researchers who have maintained links with some 'Deep Insiders' within the USG, particularly Dan T Smith who has put forward the Best Possible Worlds Hypothesis, that we may be on the verge of ' full Disclosure' and that the recent upsurge in sightings and media interest is all part of the support-act to the 'Main Event'.

Certainly, the recent developments are unprecedented. If these are 'fakes' they are the 'best yet'. If not, we are in for more 'shows' and increased reports.

Either way, we can certainly say that in regard to UFO reports - we live in interesting times!

UFO Believer Exposes Fakes, Faces Resistance
UFO UFO Believer Exposes Fakes, Faces Resistance from locals

JJ Hensley

The Arizona Republic

May. 24, 2007 05:17 PM

To most of us, they're easily explained as planes, plastic bags, birds or balloons.

To a select few, those lights, shadows and unidentified objects they see flying or lingering in the desert sky are proof that earthlings are not alone.

Rich Giordano filmed such an event on Val Vista Drive in Mesa in late April, and claims it was a fleet of ships performing exercises in the northern sky.

But before you write Giordano off as another alien-obsessed crackpot, there's one thing you should know: Giordano wants someone to prove him wrong.

The Chandler resident regularly offers $100 to anyone who can disprove some of the videos on his site, that is, those he hasn't already debunked himself.

The shift in Giordano's status from disciple to debunker is creating something of a rift in the area's rich UFO-sighting community.

Though the group is easily given to conspiracy theories, Jeff Woolwine, one of Giordano's favorite targets, said the root of Giordano's debunking campaign is nothing more than professional jealousy.

"If I'm faking this stuff, if it's balloons, then why is everyone seeing the same (stuff) in different parts of the country?" said Woolwine, who believes the drawings on South Mountain's rocks have the power to draw out spirits. "I don't care what Giordano says. He's just upset that I filmed them closer."

Giordano, who hosts a UFO-themed radio show on his Web site, www.cnufos.com, has a ready explanation for this, as he does with most of the unexplained and unidentified objects that are sent to him from awestruck residents around the world.

"I've learned that there aren't as many UFOs as people think. I've debunked most of my own ideas," said Giordano, a 39-year-old native New Yorker who's lived in the Valley since 1979. "I want to believe, but I feel like, with all the stuff I have on video, it's still not good enough for me. Most people just don't know any better, or they're just making stuff up."

Giordano said that was a tough lesson for him to learn when he first entered the area's active sky-watching community in 2004.

But his fascination with unidentified objects circling in the night sky goes back much further.

Giordano was taking out the trash with his dad in the 1970s at their home in New York when his father saw an odd-looking red light in the sky and alerted his neighbors. No more than 5 years old at the time, Giordano said he was hooked on the belief that something or someone else is out there, but the thought didn't creep back into his mind until he was walking his wife's dog in April 2004 and saw what he thought was a moving star.

"I thought it was a satellite and then I went back out at 3:30 in the morning and saw the exact same thing," Giordano said.

Within months his Web site was up, but during the next 18 months, Giordano's tone on the site would change from that of an ardent believer to an increasingly skeptical detractor.

Giordano said there are tricks that help explain many of the most popular UFO videos that have proliferated on sites such as YouTube and LiveVideo.com, the most common of which are launching balloons and recording them as they disappear, giving the appearance of a far-off object ascending to the heavens. UFO hunters can also adjust the lighting, zoom and camera angle to make a large object, such as a plane, look like it's a tiny, shiny speck zooming around the sky, he said.

"The thing about the UFO community is, it's such a hard thing to believe that when someone comes along they think I'm trying to ruin it for them. I'm not. I'm trying to keep 'ufology' in tact," Giordano said. "But I think 95 percent of this stuff is fake, 4 percent is unexplained and 1 percent is real, and that even goes for my own stuff."

Giordano has plenty of motivation to set himself apart from the rabble of UFO sleuths in the state: the more he debunks their stories, Giordano sets himself up as a voice that even the most strident skeptics can trust. That's a handy stance when it comes to driving traffic to his Web site and enhancing efforts to increase exposure for his Web-cast radio show in the hopes of getting an over-the-air gig someday.

Giordano admits the appeal of positioning himself as the voice of reason amidst a sea of screwballs, but that doesn't remove the stigma that accompanies his role.

"It's hard for me at work, too. I kept this a secret at my new job. I don't bring it up, ever. I did at the beginning, when I first started the site. I was working as loan officer at the time and when I started getting into this, people there started to treat me differently. They treated my like a freak," said Giordano, who now works as a manager at a Scottsdale glass-replacement company. "My job is normal, my wife is normal, everything in my life is normal, except for this."

Who am I?

UFO Personalities
UFO I was a sixty-one-year old forestry worker in the Dechmont Woods in Livingston, West Lothian, Scotland. One morning, while on duty, I saw a UFO hovering above the ground. Soon, several smaller UFOs came from the object, injuring me and rendering me unconscious.

Do you know who I am? Answer in next week's magazine.

Answer to last week's question: Thomas Mantell

"Flying Saucer" Police Spy Camera Takes to the Skies
UFO 05-07-07-The UK's first police "spy drone" took to the skies today. The remote control helicopter, fitted with CCTV cameras, will be used by officers in Merseyside to track criminals and record anti-social behaviour. The drone is only a metre wide, weighs less than a bag of sugar, and can record images from a height of 500m.

It was originally used for military reconnaissance but is now being trialled by a mainstream police force. The spy plane was launched as a senior police officer warned the surveillance society in the UK is eroding civil liberties.

Ian Readhead, deputy chief constable of Hampshire Police, said Britain could face an Orwellian situation with cameras on every street corner. However, senior officers in Merseyside, who are trialling the drone, said they did not believe it was the next phase in creating a Big Brother society.

Assistant chief constable Simon Byrne said: "People clamour for the feeling of safety which cameras give.

"Obviously there is a point of view that has been expressed but our feedback from the public is anything we can do to fight crime is a good thing.

"There are safeguards in place legally covering the use of CCTV and the higher the level of intrusion, the higher the level of authority needed within the police force to use it. So there is that balance there."

Police said the drone is expected to be operational by June and will be given a three-month trial.

Visit UFO Area

UFOs are Frequent Flyers in Our Area
UFO By R.J. VILLELLA

Robert.Villella@IndeOnline.com

Dispatchers say they had no unusual calls that night and there was nothing from the sheriff’s department to explain the phenomena. Controllers at the Akron-Canton Airport reported nothing out of the ordinary on their radar screens. But Rosemary Lyons said she saw a UFO fly over the Loyal Order of Moose Lodge, 2935 Lincoln Way W., at 10:40 p.m. Friday, May 11. Lyons isn’t nuts, said a UFO expert from Cleveland who noted that sightings in Ohio aren’t all that unusual.

“It goes in cycles,” said Richard Lee, of the Cleveland Ufology Project, one of the oldest UFO research organizations in the country.

Lyons said she was taking a smoke break outside the back door of the lodge with a fellow employee when she saw it. Her co-worker could not be reached for comment.

“The first thing I said was ‘Oh my gosh. Look at that,’ ” Lyons said.

She said it was low and slow, that it was big and it glowed.

“We saw it for 20 to 25 seconds,” said Lyons, a 1972 grad of Central Catholic. “It was round and luminous underneath. It wasn’t a plane, it wasn’t a helicopter, it wasn’t a blimp and it wasn’t a balloon.”

She estimated it was as big as six parking spaces. That would make it 60 feet in diameter. Lyons said she got a real good look because it was only about 60 feet off the ground. She estimated that by comparing the height to a tree in the Moose parking lot. But there was one really eerie thing about it, she said – it was silent.

“It made absolutely no sound,” Lyons said. “It was flying over just carefree – like it was no one’s business.”

While many non-believes might question Lyons’ sanity, Lee said northeastern Ohio is a hot spot when it comes to UFO sightings. Lee, a member of the Mutual UFO Network, or MUFON, who investigates sightings in Summit and Portage counties, said two of the most famous sightings ever were reported right here in northeastern Ohio.

“In 1966, the Portage sheriff chased a UFO almost all the way to the Pennsylvania border,” Lee said. “They were checking out an abandoned car and a UFO came overhead and shined a light down on them. It started moving away and they followed it in their car – tracking it in the hopes someone with a camera could catch up.”

Lee said the Akron newspaper wrote about that incident extensively.

“Stories still come up and radio shows talk about it on anniversary dates,” he said.

The other case involved the National Guard.

“That was at 11 p.m. on Oct. 18, 1973,” he said. “The Guard was flying from Columbus to Cleveland and the ’copter was seven miles east, southeast of Mansfield. They were flying at an altitude of 700 feet when they spotted it.”

Lee said there were five men on board, and five credible witnesses on the ground all gave the same story.

“They recorded a timeline of 300 seconds,” Lee said, adding instruments and the radio went haywire during those moments. “They ruled out everything else – weather, a meteor – at first they thought it might have been some high performance aircraft. But they soon realized no plane could maneuver like that.”

Lee said he gets about 10 cases a year in which people will file a formal report but there are three times as many who make an inquiry and then decide against a formal report. He said Lyons’ account sounds similar to a lot of other cases he has heard about.

“It could be credible,” he said. “I would like to interview an individual before committing. This (UFO sightings) has been going on for 50 to 60 years. People keep seeing them. Sometimes they go to authorities but many times they don’t. Sometimes newspapers write about sightings but many times they don’t.”

But Rosemary Lyons is a believer.

“There has to be something else out there,” she said. “I think people see these things and don’t say anything because people might think they’re crazy. I hope now some other people come forward.”

Two Photographs of Possible UFOs from the United Kingdom
I received an e-mail from a gentleman only last week. He sent me two photographs of a possible UFO taken somewhere in the United Kingdom. I wrote him back asking for a more specific location, but have since lost his address. If you see this, write me back!

The witness states his case this way:

My friend and I noticed this object in the sky, there are often planes flying overhead but this was too low for a plane and as you can see from the photos not plane shaped at all.

There was no sound and no vapour trail. It was oval shaped and moved VERY quickly away to the south west.

Luckily my friend caught the action on his mobile phone (sorry pics aren't done justice with poor quality)

I myself am not an alien believer and neither is my friend. Maybe someone out there has seen it also.

"The 4400" Returns, Sunday, June 17
UFO by Sean Stubblefield

Abducted. Changed. Returned.

Critically acclaimed and multiple Emmy nominated for outstanding material, The 4400 continues to be highly rated as one of USA Network’s most watched original programming, with over 3 million viewers weekly each season.

This is the extraordinary story of how 4400 unusual individuals effect society after being pulled from throughout the past 60 years by people in the future, and returned together in 2004 with various paranormal abilities.

In the not too distant future, it is clear that something went horribly wrong with the world, and it is the calculated intent and hope of people in the future that these chosen 4400 will influence change in the present to create a better future. Exploring the trials and tribulations of these unique people as they struggle to integrate into “normal” current society, the show brilliantly speculates potential circumstances of how each side reacts to the other. These 4400 are essentially made alien, in terms of their abduction, their notoriety, their special powers, and their temporal displacement. Including all the associated stigmas and idiosyncrasy-- good and bad.

Written and produced with intelligence, insight and integrity, The 4400 takes the subject matter of enhanced people seriously, and therefore attains a level of excellence and maturity that the similar show Heroes could and should have achieved, but failed miserably. To give you an idea of the difference in quality, The 4400 is to Beethoven what Heroes is to Avril Lavigne.

Don’t misunderstand me; I enjoy both. But whereas Heroes is entertaining, The 4400 is interesting.

Like all proper science fiction, it is a speculative inquiry and contemplation of the human condition.

A morality tale without being preachy, The 4400 encourages us to recognize the responsibility we have for creating the world we live in, and the ripple effects our actions cause on the future.

Much like Deep Space 9, Millennium and Battlestar Galactica, The 4400 is socially conscious and socially relevant, yet doesn‘t get the credit and appreciation among the mainstream that it deserves for its excellence. Scenarios, characters and their interactions are well conceived and portrayed authentically to cultivate a nuanced sense of realism, infusing believability into the incredible.

Laying the foundation and preparing for the 4th season, the USA Network’s 4400 website is seeking increased fan input by featuring interactive online options for them to participate in and promote the show. On May 21, the site relaunched to provide new web content to support and augment the new season storyline, including several ARG (alternate reality game) and role playing elements, in addition to their posting boards, blogs, episode guide and behind the scenes material.

Alien Corpses Seen Near Wright Patterson AFB

When young Dave Smith entered the forbidden room behind the wall, he never suspected he had signed his own death warrant. Dave, fresh out of high school, landed a job at the AVCO Manufacturing Company in Richmond, Indiana in May of 1962.

The United States government had leased part of the plant and the Indiana Ordinance Company was engaged in secret chemical and explosive tests at the site that had Vietnam War applications. Dave's employment was in the experimental section. Within this part, beyond a wall, there was a laboratory-like room that was off limits even to persons with Dave's security clearance.

Curiosity gnawed at Dave, and being an unafraid adventuresome sort, he determined that he would breach this extreme security if the opportunity presented itself. This soon happened and he was able to slip into the room undetected. There were three tables in the room and each had something on it with a covering over it.

In the brief interval before he was rudely interrupted, Dave was able to lift the cover on each table and be totally shocked by what he saw. Three men in black suits came charging into the room. Two grabbed Dave and the other one quickly took a device from his pocket and pressed it to the lower back of Dave's head. When Dave regained consciousness, he did not know where he was or how much time had passed.

Due to the military uniforms the men wore he surmised that he was in some kind of a military base. This later proved to be Wright Patterson Air Fore Base at Dayton, Ohio which is some 45 miles southeast of Richmond. Then began a series of ordeals that Dave would never forget.

Dave was subjected to violent, grueling interrogations that seemed to never end. Needles were stuck into him and the shots affected his mind and body. Finally he was allowed to recover and then helicoptered back to his job at Richmond. Dave was repeatedly warned that if he ever uttered one word about what he had seen he and his family would suddenly become missing persons.

What Dave's unbelieving eyes had beheld was clearly one of government's greatest secrets. All three beings were similar and appeared to have been injured with one looking like it had suffered burns.

All were about three or three and a half feet long, slight figured, and had no muscle tone. The skin was grayish brown and when he touched one, its skin felt like rough leather. The little entities had very large round heads, very big round black eyes, a slit mouth, tiny, flat noses, tiny ears, and no facial expression.

Their long arms reached down to their knees. The hands were three digest and claw-like. Dave especially remembered their feet which had three stubby webbed toes. Noticeable ridges stuck out the bottom of the feet. They were dressed in one piece brown jump suits that zipped up. On one suit he noticed an emblem that looked something like a small bird.

During the month following Dave's ordeal he would often be taken off his job and flown back to the AFB for repeat attention. Fellow employees at the Richmond plant were aware of his condition and repeatedly told his family that something was being done to him by the government.

Several times one sister would receive calls to go get him in Earlham Cemetery which lies at the west edge of Richmond. She would find him there in a disoriented state. Strange men watched the family home and even watched the grocery store that Dave started later on.

In the early 1970s Dave was offered a series of better jobs as a nuclear warfare specialist at other government facilities, but he declined and left the Richmond job. Janet Smith, his young wife, remembers that he had problems with a bleeding nose and ears. Finally in 1975, he told Janet a few details about his harrowing experiences, but her efforts to get more out of him went unrewarded until 1980. He then made some crude drawings of the beings and talked more about things.

In 1985 he developed a malignant tumor right where the CIA type had placed the device that rendered him instantly unconscious. Nothing could be done for Dave. He died in 1986 at the age of 43. His physicians wanted to do an autopsy to see why he had died at that early age from that type of cancer. Heartbroken Janet, still keeping the big secret, wanted no more of this distressing business.

It was not until February 1992 that Dave's son Bob finally got up the courage to come to my home and relate what had happened to his father. He had told me many of the details on the phone in two calls. He came despite the strong objections of his mother. In memory of his father this embittered son wanted a record to exist somewhere about what happened.

I, Donald L. Worley, an investigator/researcher with 38 years experience who has handled many cases, do certify that the above details are true and accurate as stated. In this account we see just how ruthless certain elements in our government are in protecting their most momentous secret. The names of the principals in these events must remain unknown due to the embittered families fear of their own government.

Georgia-12 or More Amber Lights
05-05-I was driving up to my parent’s house in north GA from Atlanta, having left at 11:50 PM Friday night. I was nearing my destination after 90 minutes of driving, having long exited the highway (Hwy 515). Driving on Aska road about one mile before reaching Newport road, I saw two cars parked on the opposite shoulder with their lights on and their drivers standing a few yards from them on the edge of a dirt lot. Aska is a long, winding road in a very remote part of GA and it is unusual to see any traffic after 10 PM. I thought one of the drivers may have been having car trouble, or collided with the other driver.

I slowed to take a closer look at the scene and saw both drivers staring to the sky above a hilltop that was about half a mile away. Above the hill, maybe 300 ft. in the air were a string of 12 or so bright amber lights arranged into a crescent with a very shallow curve. I first thought them to be airplanes flying in formation. I did not see the lights moving, however, and I also stopped my car and rolled down my window to get a clear view of the lights.

I did not see stars behind the general patch of sky occupied by the lights and realized I was staring at a single solid object with lights spaced along its leading edge. I exited my car and joined the other drivers on the dirt lot and asked them what it was. Neither knew, but the first driver to arrive said he had been looking at it for 5 minutes already before I arrived. The three of us traded theories about what we were looking at, finally deciding that it was most likely some kind of blimp. We all agreed it was strange that it wasn't moving at all.

15 minutes after first noticing the object, it began descending straight down and quickly disappeared behind the hilltop. It covered this distance in no more than 3 seconds. The other two drivers were surprised by this but did not seem concerned or frightened. I felt quite afraid at that point and immediately returned to my car and sped the rest of the way to my parents home. I looked for mention of the object in the local newspaper for the next two weeks and found nothing. source: www.mufon.com

Illinois-Right Angle Turns
05-17-I was walking my dog east. Our street is dark. Saw this object moving slowly north. It looked like it got brighter then dimmer. When I saw this thing take a right angle turn is when I freaked out. Did I just really see that?

When I got home I let my other dogs out. I was still in shock that I saw something like that happen. So I went out side again to see if I could somehow see this thing again and get lucky.

After a min later another light came into focus. moving from south to north it got brighter, stopped then Just took off. I had a strange feeling it knew I was watching it! I know, it sounds crazy. source: www.mufon.com

Indiana-Tear Drop-Shaped Object
05-17-I was driving west on Bristol St. in Elkhart, IN. I looked up in the clear sky and I noticed a tear drop shaped object. it seemed to be heading towards the ground, but it was up really high and seemed to be falling away from me towards the western sky. It did not have a long tail, more of a stubby one... which made it look more like a tear drop to me. it was going for about 5 mins. in a downward angle, then it seemed to start heading straight out that lasted for another 13 mins or so. It was heading more of a western direction instead of a downward angle at this point.

It was going pretty fast because i noticed the how the size was getting smaller. It continued on it's path. As i decided to turn away and start heading home, I noticed a streak in the sky... like a jet trail of another object, heading in the direction of the object i first saw. I tried watching it more, but traffic behind me started getting impatient. I lost the object through the tree line that was about 30 yards away from me.

the object I saw had a surface like a jet streak. it looked like a cloud, in a tear drop shape & was obviously moving. I thought i was falling, but its velocity seemed to be carrying it towards the western sky, at a faster rate that gravity was pulling it. in the end, it no longer seemed to falling, but flying away... fast. I felt curious to see what it was. It was a clear day, so I knew others could see as well-which is why I am reporting it. I wanted to know if there was an official explanation. source: www.mufon.com

Maryland-Egg-Shaped Object
05-20-At 2:30 PM, my brother and I were in our back yard when we saw the UFOs. He stopped and I asked why, he said "Look! A UFO!" I looked over the mountain line where he was pointing, and saw a black, egg-shaped figure. It was round on the bottom. It was like a side-ways oval. The figure was moving slowly, moving south-west to north east. It picked up speed as it went until it disappeared. Then I saw a inverted pie plate traveling east, slowly. It then disappeared behind a tree where I couldn't see it. source: www.mufon.com
Minnesota-Lights Move Erratically
05-13-07-Starting on Sunday May 13th, 2007, when I was lying in bed at 10:00 PM (CST), I noticed a light in the North-East sky which would move quickly in small circles, fading and returning, and sometimes darting a short distance away and returning. I saw this nightly, once until 2:00 AM. It seemed slightly oval, even though it was small - yet larger than any surrounding star. Last night I watched it again even though it was cloudy. I have been puzzled by it's movement and that it returns, so decided to report and inquire about it. source: www.mufon.com
Utah-Stationary Black Object
05-16-I was taking out the trash with a client at my place of work. I work in a facility with juveniles who are in incarceration & treatment. The sun had just gone down when we noticed an object in the sky about 40 degrees up from the horizon by the star that was the planet. The object was on the north side of the planet/star and was large enough to be some type of object like a plane or helicopter. As the client and I looked at the object we noticed that it was not moving. The object was however undulating and changing its shape.

We thought it was a flock of birds however it was very high up in the air and it never moved, just kept changing its shape like a blob. The object was also totally black, no light however it had this edge like it was composed of something liquid. Being in the western sky after sunset with the sky still bright, there should have been some type of light reflected off it however it was like the pure absence of any light. Planes landing at the SLC airport were coming in just under where we witnessed the object. It was about the same size as the planes coming in however it appeared to be far higher than the planes. We could not figure out what this object was. I also attempted to take a picture of this with my phone, the planet/star would show on the display of the phone however the object would not. This was weird since the object was large enough to show.

The client and I watched the object for a few minutes stay in the same place. The object then traveled to the other side of the planet/star and took another stationary place. The time that it took to move was about 2 minutes. I took the client inside our facility. I then went back outside and continued to watch the object. It started to get smaller however it stayed in the exact same place. I watched it for about 15 minutes total. It basically just shrunk out of sight while the sky started to get darker. The entire time that I watched the object, there was nothing in the sky except the plant/star and the occasional plane coming into land at the airport. The sky was cloud free and clear.

When the client and I first went back in the building we ran into one of my coworkers taking out trash too. We told him that there was something in the sky and he asked what we were smoking outside. I saw him come back in from taking out his trash and he stated that he witnessed the object too. When I went outside I grabbed two other coworkers and told them to come look at this. They came outside with me and noticed it too as it was going out of sight. source: www.mufon.com

Australia-Man Shoots at UFO
05-21-I present to you a tale of mystery, of suspense of biblical proportion. I was sitting out the back in the rocking' chair listening to the serenity and smelling the quaint scent of 2 stroke in the air. The ever present cackling of the Kookaburras. Suddenly all was quiet. In the bush things do change quite sharply but not to this magnitude.

I was observing a light traveling across the sky before the silence and started to notice that it was not the airplane which I first took it to be. The "craft" as I call it was traveling towards me at an incredible rate, much faster than a conventional jet airplane’s it entered a range of about 200-300 meters I began to panic, I ran inside and grabbed my rifle and fired three shots at the approaching item.

Two rounds hit the craft the last seemed to stop short of the object by about 10 meters and fall to the ground. The crafts speed had reached a climax speed of about 600 km per hour and was closing in being 100 meters away at the last shot fired. Then at about 20 meters away (just after I accepted my own death) it stopped hovered for about 10 minutes and intimidating me and flew away at the same rate at which it came. source: www.mufon.com
