UFO Photographed over Zagreb, Crotia, 06-09-06
UFO
Zagreb, Croatia – On June 9, 2006, Srdjan Martincic was playing soccer with his 9 year old son when he stopped playing, looked into the sky and asked "Daddy, "What's that?"

Later his father that he looked up because he heard strange buzz.

The Father says, "I didn't hear anything. "

The son pointed to a dark symmetrical object at 5:30 PM, that started approaching them vertically.

Srdjan states, "By the time I grabbed my camera it changed direction and went some 2-3 km to the south. I cannot exactly say how close it was, because I have no idea about the size of this thing, but I guess it would be 300-500 meters."

Srdjan Martincic Age: 33 is manager in small company and a naval architect BSE.

Unknown Objects Photographed near Jets in Texas
UFO

Hey B J,

Dallas was getting a large storm brewing about 5:30 pm on July 4th 2006. Evidently the passenger jets flying to Lovefield and DFW airports were being diverted to miss it and were flying low and right over my house here in Kaufman.

I was taking advantage of them flying so low and started taking some photos of them as they flew over heading north. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary at the time, but when I downloaded them on the computer, I noticed one of the jets drew a lot of attention from several objects in the sky.

I took close to two dozen photos in burst mode of it as it passed and in most of them there were objects appearing to be in fairly close range of the jet, which was a Southwest Airliner.

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks to Larry for some more excellent photographs.

Rods Captured on Video in Florida
UFO

Here's the Rods Video. Now first I want to make a point here. Some people claim that Rods are insects; well this Video may prove them wrong!

Notice the second Rod that comes in horizontally then comes to a stop and the backside swings around and reverses its direction.If it were an insect it would just be one trail! This may be a first of this kind of movement filmed of a Rod.

I just viewed the original disk in the camera and the info is.

June 29 2006 9:31.42 is when i see the first one and the second is at 9:32.48.

I was shooting towards the west at a thunderstorm and this is what I captured. I was using a Sony Handycam DCR-DVD105 with Super Nightshot Plus on a tripod. The event was in Delray Beach Florida behind my home.

Thanks,

JC

UFO Videotaped in Australia, Four Witnesses
UFO

DATE: 10.6.06, afternoon.

LOCATION:Whiteman Park, Western Australia.

WITNESSES: Four witnesses.

OTHER DETAILS: A family of four watched this object for several minutes, from a lookout point in Whiteman Park.

"It "moved about like a plastic bag", while the family argued about what it was. The whole family went back to the car, apparently unimpressed, but the mother came back with the camera, and as soon as she started filming the object moved away. (I've interview this witness over the phone, and find her to be extremely credible.)

UFO Photographed over Eagle, Michigan, 05-04-06
UFO
Eagle --This is Patty Donahue, thought you might be interested in seeing my new pictures. I took the following pictures while out driving on the back roads near my home on May 4, 2006.

When I take pictures, I try to take anywhere from 3-10 frames of the same shot, so I can see what may appear. The photo shows a UFO (though you have to zoom in to see it).

The photo is enlarged, so you could see the UFO. In later photos it's just gone, vanished. The craft appeared to be disc shaped and an estimated 25 feet in diameter. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Thanks to Patty Donahue (MUFON International F. I. Trainee-Michigan)

Object Moves over Pond in Oklahoma, 06-27-06
UFO
FLAGLER -- On June 27, 2006, five of our grandchildren were fishing in our pond about 3:00 p.m., when they saw a big splash on one side of the pond. Everything became still, and the pond became like glass as the object sank. Then they saw a whirlpool in the pond about 8 to 10 feet across that moved very fast across the pond towards them. When it hit the water there was steam that went up from the object then the object disappeared to reappear in another area.

One of the children got on a boat that was at the bank, and she could see lights around the sides and the object looked like metal. Two other children said they saw the lights, but two of them said it looked yellow under the water.

Two were still watching it when they saw the water and grass around the pond next to them start to move violently, so they got scared and ran to the house. They were very disturbed by what they saw, and it took three hours before they would tell us what had happened. They range from 7 to 13 years old and all had the same story.

The next day we drove around and found truck like tracks that led towards the pond, but stopped before they got to the pond. There was a circle where the grass had been bent down in an arc shape at the edge of the pond as it splashed into the pond.

They said there was a cloud over them that was swirling. The older children thought it might be a tornado that sounded like a muffled lawn mower. I asked the OSU Extension Agency to check for contamination. They informed me there had been two other similar incidents.

Sphere Caught on Camera in Australian Contrail Photos
Dear UFO Casebook,

I thought you might be interested in these three digital photographs I took on the morning of Tuesday, 4th July this year. The time was around 7.45 am. I was taking my daughter to meet her school bus when I noticed two very strange "contrails" in the Western sky in the shape of circles, one next to the other. I raced back to get my digital camera, and took around 12 pictures of these formations, half in quick succession, then the rest over a period of an hour.

It was only until I transferred the pictures to my computer when I noticed a circular object within the left contrail. At first, I noticed that the "Sphere" appeared close to the contrail to the left of the picture, near a break in that trail. In the following picture the "Sphere" had moved to the centre of the same trail. These three pictures were taken together, within a minute of each other.

I've enlarged the "Sphere" from each picture and pasted the enlargements into each respective picture to show that the object is definitely spherical in shape, and has a definite "mother-of-pearl" coloring.

My camera is a Kodak C330 Digital, with a 4 megapixel rating.

Hope this is of interest to you. Do you know if anyone else has seen something similar?

Best regards,

Neville Mitchell,

Tynong North, Australia.

1947-Portland, Oregon, Flying Saucers Seen; Multiple Witnesses
UFO
Original Title: Saucers made no ordinary fireworks

By Phil Stanford

The Portland Tribune, Jul 3, 2006

What I do know, however, because I read about it in the newspapers, is that 59 years ago today, scores of Portlanders, including pilots, police officers, and just plain civilians like you and me, saw – or at least thought they saw – flying saucers above the Rose City.

According to no less a source than The Oregonian, the first flying saucers, or whatever they were, were sighted directly over Oaks Amusement Park.

Immediately, the police bureau put out an “all cars” alert, which was answered by three patrolmen who said they saw them, too.

One of them, Earl Patterson, identified as an “air corps veteran,” said they were traveling fast, “wobbling and weaving,” and in his opinion they were not airplanes.

The other two, Walter Lissy and Robert Ellis, both civilian pilots themselves, said what they saw were discs, making sudden changes in direction and traveling at a “terrific speed.”

• • •

Capt. K.A. Prehn, along with two of his men at Harbor Patrol headquarters on Irving, reported seeing several “discs” pass overhead at a height of 10,000 feet.

They were unsure whether there were three or six of them because of confusing flashes from the objects, which “seemed to oscillate, weave and turn until … sometimes only a crescent was visible.”

“Captain Prehn described the sight as a ‘wobbling hubcap.’ A regular plane was in the sky at the time,” the news account continued, “but these were not planes, they agreed.”

Meanwhile, over at state police headquarters on Southeast McLoughlin, Sgt. Claude Cross reported seeing two objects that looked from a distance like “toy balloons, almost pure white, traveling sideways, with no flashing lights.”

• • •

But lest you be tempted to take the easy way out – which is, of course, that these mysterious objects were actually top-secret CIA weather balloons – there’s the report from a United Airlines plane en route from Boise to Portland that night.

Or as the headline at the top of the first page of the July 5 Oregonian unmincingly put it:

“Air Liner Crew Confirms Flying Discs Over State”

Shortly after takeoff from Boise, World War II veteran Captain E.J. Smith, plus his co-pilot and a stewardess, spotted nine of them. Upon landing, Smith described them as “bigger than aircraft … very thin, very flat on the bottom and … rough or irregular on the top.”

The discs, which were flying at about the same altitude as the plane, followed them for 15 minutes before suddenly vanishing.

“No object I know of could disappear so quickly,” observed Smith.

The Oregonian’s headlines the next day read:

“Flying Saucers Everywhere; New Tales Convert Skeptics”

They just don’t write headlines like that over there anymore.

But then, to be fair, we haven’t had a decent UFO flyby in a long time, either.

California Unusual Fast Flying Light
VICTORVILLE -- I was talking on the phone on the back patio on June 29, 2006, at 10 PM, when I saw a bright light. I counted it as a star until I noticed it was moving, and I watched it move towards Four Corners ever so slightly. After awhile it started to dim, and once almost out of sight it shot forward extremely fast and it was gone.

My friend on the phone indicated that his Dad said that it may have been the Aurora space craft which he saw a couple days ago. The Aurora is triangular and maybe the sighting someone else had in a report I read on this site. Thanks to Brian Vike Director HBCC UFO Research www.hbccufo.com

Michigan--Police Respond to UFO Report
SOO MICHIGAN -- David Helwig writes, "Tonight's June 29, 2006, edition of the Soo Evening News reports that police responded to an account of an unidentified flying object on Wednesday night in the 1000 block of East 7th Avenue in the Michigan Soo. The UFO is said to have hovered without noise there for almost one hour.

It was very shiny on top, just like the visor on an astronaut's helmet, the newspaper said. "While police might have dismissed the report had it come from a lone individual, neighbors and other supported the original caller's claims of a strange object hovering in the sky," the Evening News said. Thanks to David Helwig.

New Jersey Sightings
Gloucester -- It was summer 1963 during a baseball game. I had hit a single and was on first base. The first baseman (Jimmy Steffens) and I were looking in toward home plate anticipating the next pitch. Off in the distance above the head of the batter was a tiny light like a star. It came from the horizon at an unimaginable speed. The sky was clear except for a cloud right above our heads. The height of the cloud was unknown and covered an area the size of a pizza pie held at arms length.

This thing came at such a speed as to be beyond anything we have ever seen. It entered the cloud and was the size of a dime held at arms length. It did not exit the cloud, as expected, rather it sped off in the same direction that it came from. The reverse direction only took two seconds and took off in the same direction that it came in at such a speed that by the time we started yelling the other players missed seeing it as it disappeared in the distant horizon.

Later that night we were all playing hide and go seek. Jimmy and I chose a hiding place together. What happened to Jimmy and me is too bizarre to tell on paper. I am afraid if I explain it you will think of me as crazy. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New York White Sphere "Again" !
INTERLAKEN -- I was driving home from Trumansburg, on June 20, 2006 after visiting with a friend. I was driving home, north on Route 96 and was between the villages of Trumansburg and Interlaken at 1:25 a.m., north of the city of Ithaca, NY. The area is very rural and I was about half-way to Interlaken and I noticed a white sphere that had come out of an open field by some trees. After a second or two, the sphere shot up at an amazing rate of speed.

After the object went out of sight when I heard a voice tell me, "We'll be back for you soon". Of course, this scared me to death, I've had several previous incidents that involved these spheres and missing time. As I drove into the village of Interlaken, I couldn't shake the idea that I was not alone. It only took a minute to drive through the village, and a mile out on the lonely road, I suddenly felt as though someone had been sitting next to me. I was so paralyzed with fright that I couldn't bring myself to look over.

It may have been just a projected image that "they" put in my head....or, it could've been my imagination working. The fear and panic could've induced this feeling. However, when I regained my senses, I realized that I was driving 94 miles per hour and the speed limit was only 55. The moment that I felt a presence in the car was about 1:30 AM. I saw no other car in the total of 9 miles I had driven from Trumansburg. This is unusual considering that this is a major highway that connects many different towns. I should've at least encountered about 6-7 vehicles this time of the night on this highway.

FULTON -- We stopped and got out of the car at 9 PM, on October 30, 1969, when I noticed a large orange cigar shaped object moving slowly from the north. I told my friend to look at this. We watched as it came to a stop, and a piece of the same color fell from it. The piece then burst into flames and the object then moved off in the same direction it came from. It was a clear night with many stars visible. I remember this as if it happened yesterday.

Oklahoma Lighted Object Seen
OKLAHOMA CITY -- On June 27, 2006 at 10:40 PM, I was in my back yard smoking and facing south. I looked up at the sky and noticed a light to my west. At first, I thought it was just a flash of light in my eyes. I blinked a few times and followed the object as it moved from west to east for about four seconds. The lights were dim but obvious. I would estimate that it was 4 miles high and about the size of a pencil if held out at arm’s length.

There was no blinking of the light and the light ran the entire length of the blurry object. I watched it disappear into the glow of the City lights in the east. I live between Tinker AFB and the Oklahoma City airport. This was NOT a normal aircraft. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Washington UFO Traveling In Circles
Tacoma -- I was traveling on I-5 south in Fife, when I observed what looked like a small white oval cloud hovering at about 1000 feet near the Tacoma Dome on July 1, 2006, at 1:06 p.m. The size of the "cloud" was about 100 feet across and 50 feet vertical, about the size of a ball bearing at arm's length.

There were no other clouds in the sky, and the "cloud" started to move in a small circle in about the same pattern and speed as a helicopter, but this was no helicopter. It had bizarre optical properties. As it moved, it would change brightness and appear to change shape from oval to almost rectangular. It looked like a rectangular white cloud, when approaching eastward and turning north, then like a dark gray oval when receding and turning west and south.

As I got closer, it traveled in wider circles. Then, it moved north, over downtown Tacoma, then out over the Puget Sound. When I got to the Tacoma Dome area, the object was a small gray dot out over the Sound, north of Tacoma. The overall appearance was as if watching a bright school of fish circling in the sky. I could not tell if the whiteness was just reflection from the sun or an additional glowing of some sort.

I noticed that the top and bottom of the oval were somewhat brighter than the middle. I also noticed that its pattern of brightness changes was different when I removed my polarized sunglasses, as if it was actively polarizing light. My sighting lasted for eight minutes starting at 1:06 PM. My impression is that it was some sort of experimental aircraft, using some new stealth or cloaking type technology. It was very strange to see a "cloud" moving around in the sky. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director HBCC UFO Research

Canada Sightings High
ETOBICOKE, ONTARIO -- One evening at 2 PM, , while reading by candle light at my 9th story apartment window overlooking downtown Toronto from the west in May 2005, I noticed two strange orange lights directly above Toronto Island airport. These objects were larger than any visible star/planet in the night sky. After 3 seconds of sitting still, the 2 objects suddenly moved in parallel on a southerly trajectory, passing over Lake Ontario as they flew. Immediately after, a third object joined them from further out on the lake.

The three objects then changed direction and headed in delta formation towards the north, over the horizon and out of sight. The formation became tighter with distance as perspective would dictate. The objects traveled in a straight line and the whole trip of several hundred kilometers took only 10 - 12 seconds. Unfortunately, I was the only witness to the event and have no video footage. By my closest estimations, the objects were at an altitude roughly that of 3 – 5 Kilometers, distance of 45 – 60 Kilometers from my position, traveling at an approximate speed of 10 or more Kilometers per second (36,000+ Km/h, Mach 30?). Thanks to Brian Vike Vernon, British Columbia -- The orbs have still been here since my last report and tonight June 28, 2006, things are different as the orbs are flying very low in the small plane landing lanes over the airport. At 10 PM, two of the orbs lit up like a flashlight while they slowly flew at a height of 2000 feet. There is no small plane traffic tonight, but a couple of the international flights flew west at their regular times.

One orb was visible for a moment flying in the international lane, it dimmed as the plane went by, then it appeared in the same spot, so I am guessing it stayed where it was and then it proceeded on. These orbs can appear to be a small plane spotlight when they are bright, but at a closer look, there are no other lights, no red or green. Just one big light that dims and disappears. And there is no sound around these lights that stayed around until after midnight.

Prince George, British Columbia -- My grandson and I were out in his pool at 11:30 PM, on June 26, 2006, and I was telling him I wished he had seen the light in the sky that I had seen a few weeks back, (my grandson is 13 years old next month). Anyway's I happened to look up as we were in the pool and there was this light again, he saw it to. It looked to be between a plane height and a star. I waited to see if it had flashing lights like a plane or some noise, but it didn't, it was way too low to be a satellite and it was moving very slowly and in a zigzag motion and appeared to be coming down. We live behind the Parkwood shopping mall and we watched it for about two minutes and then it just went out. Thanks to Brian Vike http://www.hbccufo.org

Fort St. John, BC -- At 5:10 PM, on June 22, 2006, I was heading southeast of Columbia on the Alaska Highway when I spotted a large cylindrical object hovering over a field approximately a thousand meters off the highway. As I know this area to contain only open farm area with trees bordering the boundary lines, it was surprising to watch it hover then descend quickly straight down out of sight. Thanks to Brian Vike http://www.hbccufo.org

England Golden Orange Object Hovers
STAFFORDSHIRE – On June 31, 2006, thirty minutes after midnight, we saw what we thought was a plane on fire, but then it stopped and hovered. We then thought it was a helicopter with full lights on, but there was no noise. It was a couple of miles away and was quite low. It looked like it was hovering over Cannock Chase Forest. It was large and round and very bright and a golden orange, almost copper.

After a few minutes it moved slowly a mile to our left at the same height. After a further few minutes it started to rise straight up until it could no longer be seen. The same night my partner was walking on his own across Cannock Chase at 1:30 AM, and came to a clearing in the trees where there is usually deer. Something caught his eye and he looked up and saw green lasers being fired in the sky. Not from earth, but as though two or three crafts very high up were firing them at each other. Thanks to Brian Vike.

Ukraine UFO Sighting
Crimea peninsula -- Dr. Anton A. Anfalov PhD, writes, Happy Independence Day, America! I have some hot fresh UFO news. Regular UFO sightings and anomalous phenomena continue over the Ukraine and a system of underground alien cavern cities are suspected deep under the Crimean mountains and under the Black Sea. "UFOs are flying here as frequently as sparrows!" Anatoliy Anatolievich Ahillov reports from the village of Nagornoye, that there are so many usual UFO observations over Ay'-Petri Mountain.and plateau, that witnesses have stopped paying attention to them. Newspapers report only some rare spectacular ones, and television is usually silent.

On July 1, 2006, when Anatoliy A. Ahillov was outside his house in Nagornoye, he suddenly saw the bright object at sky southward, looking like the orange-yellow source of light, brighter than usual stars. The object was due south, approximately 15 kilometers away . The UFO was maneuvering quite significantly and clearly visible without blinking lights like an airplane. After flying to the right and to the left, like inspecting earth under it, the UFO stopped hovering in midair at an altitude of several kilometers, and a second UFO separated from the first. This second object was less bright, but circled around, then descended down and disappeared. Thanks to Dr. Anton A. Anfalov PhD., chief coordinator of Society of Observers of Anomalous Manifestations in Environment - SOAME), Simferopol', Crimea, Ukraine
