24 July 2006-MAN ON MOON: WE SAW A UFO-Astronauts' close encounterBy Mike Swain THE first men to walk on the Moon reported seeing a UFO, a new TV documentary reveals. Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, the second man to walk on the Moon's surface after Neil Armstrong, says space agency bosses covered up their sighting. And the Apollo 11 astronauts were also careful not to talk ab out it openly. He said: "There was something out there, close enough to be observed, and what could it be? "Now, obviously the three of us weren't going to blurt out, 'Hey, Houston, we've got something moving alongside of us and we don't know what it is, you know? "Can you tell us what it is?' "We weren't about to do that, because we knew that that those transmissions would be heard by all sorts of people and somebody might have demanded we turn back because of aliens or whatever the reason is." The documentary, tonight on Five, also reveals that the astronauts had to repair the lunar module with a ballpoint pen after the historic landing in July 1969. In the cramped conditions, someone's bulky spacesuit had snapped off a circuit breaker essential for starting up the engine. To this day, Aldrin treasures the everyday object that saved their lives.
He said: "I used a pen, one of several that we had on board that didn't have metal on the end, and we used that to push the circuit breaker in." The programme also draws on classified documents made public for the first time.

Coral Springs – The images seen here were sent in by Carmen Padila. They were taken on July 14, 2006 at about 7:00 P.M. There were three witnesses to the object.
I sent an email to Carmen requesting more information about her sighting, and received two more photographs of the UFO. I also asked her about the camera, and if the object was moving. She replied: "Yes it was moving; then it stopped for about 10 minutes. I took the picture with cell phone camera, and also Kodak camera. Both have the same pictures." "We were at the pool, and the kids got my attention. They were saying, "Look! Look!, it's 'War of the Worlds.'"
"I looked at what they were pointing out to me, and well...the rest is in the pictures." "The object was silent, but when we went into the house, it was as if the electricity had shut off. My microwave wasn't working; like a short of some type." A big thanks to Carmen for relating the details of her sighting to the UFO Casebook.

July 2006-In July 2006 many crop formations appeared in Poland, some of course of doubtful authenticity or even apparent hoaxes. Information revealed here are limited mostly to preliminary reports and presented cases needed further investigation.
Amongst reported crop circles some turned out to be hoaxes [i.e.: Borek, Walily and Zlotowo formations]. Any other ones haven’t been officially announced as hoaxes although there are serious doubts toward some of them. But it must be said that due to lack of possibilities, not every one circle was thoroughly examined.
June and first days of July 2006 passed without any reports about crop formations. At the time being, the crop circle appearance cases concentrate themselves mostly in the triangle consisted of three regions: Pomorze – Wielkopolska – Kujawy ; only a few appeared in southern of Poland. What is also interesting – many circles appeared in places where they have been reported in the previous years. On the day this report was being compiled, there weren’t still any crop formations in Wylatowo [where it appeared in previous years] but investigators settled in that place allegedly registered some other observations, including UFOs. One of the most interesting formations appeared in Makowarsko [woj.Kujawsko-Pomorskie]. It appeared on a field belonging to local Parszuta family [formation coordinates: 53*23'55.80" N, 17*49'10.07"E] and was discovered on July 13th. It is located about 100 m. [333 f.] away from Bydgoszcz - Koszalin road. Due to the terrain features the formation wasn't fully visible from the road but despite of this fact, it drew attention of many curious visitors.
Makowarsko Crop Formation
Some still standing stalks were noted amongst the lay. The formation composed of many elements performed with precision. Repetitive elements are of the same dimension. The lay is directed rightwards.
Any UFO observations and similar phenomena weren't noted although someone passing by the field allegedly could hear some strange sounds and murmuring. Some slight discrepancies in circles were noted, i.e. the lay center in the circles wasn't parallel with its geometrical center. On the entire field and as well in the direct vicinity of the formation, there were relatively small areas of natural laid crop.
Measurements taken with Geiger counter didn't detect any anomalies. Radioactivity inside of the crop circle wasn't exceeding that of the background. Local media picked up the subject. According to gathered information, Makowarsko formation is one of the most interesting and complex ones that appeared in July 2006 in Poland but it was hard to establish its authenticity.
Another Polish crop circle appeared probably about July 9th 2006 in Mianowice, again in Wielkopolskie wojewodztwo. The circle is composed of 3 circles connected together with paths [1 m. wide]. It appeared about 9th June and wasn't destroyed yet in a day of its examination and registration [July 14th 2006].
Crop circles in Mianowice
The circle appeared in barley-oat mix field. In one of the circles the stalks are green and they're rising up. Almost all of the stalks are bend near to the ground. The circle rims are even, without any protuberances, although dozen of places with depressed stalks were found about 0.4 m. from the edge of the circle. Big, untouched particle of soil was found and next to it there were stalks bend near the ground surface. No magnetic anomalies were found.
Then Dr Jerzy Szymanski, a renowned researcher, released information about another crop formation located in Swibie. This crop circle appeared on an oath field probably in the middle of July 2006. According to the source it is hard to establish if the time elapse, visitors or miserable workmanship caused the bad condition of it.
In many places the stalks rose up. It isn't possible to evaluate the ground condition due to drought that harasses Poland. Stalks are broken mainly at the ground level.
Swibie Crop Formation
On July 19th 2006, Dziennik Zachodni released information about crop circles in Piekary Slaskie: "It is the 2nd visit of ET or people of extraterrestrial abilities on a field in vicinity of the Liberation Mound in Piekary. Three crop circles were noticed during the weekend [16th/17th July] by Piekary inhabitants admiring the landscape from the Liberation Mound. If Aliens will keep up with the frequency of their visits on the field belonging to one of Orzech inhabitants, UFO would become one of the city symbols, beside the Mound or Basilica."
Crop formation from Piekary
"Andrzej Kowlolik from Orzech who cultivate the ground under the Mound, learned from Dziennik Zachodni that crop circles had appeared again on his field"
"I don't believe in UFO, but it must be said that circles from the previous year were made with precision and there weren't any other marks around them' - Kowolik said."
"2005 Crop Formation was composed of perfect circles of various dimensions, linked together with narrow path. Each of the circles was composed of four quadrants with stalks precisely laid in one direction. This time the circles are located in a different part of the field but also are linked together, creating a different pattern."
"I'm only afraid of trips of curious [onlookers]' - Kowolik said. In the previous year the field was invaded not only by Aliens but by curious people who arrived there with camcorders and cameras to document the first evidence of UFO activity in Piekary."
Another one crop circle appeared overnight in vicinity of a hospital in Siedlce, probably also in mid-July and drew considerable attention amongst the hospital patients and the staff. It is composed of several circles. Unfortunately there are not any other details.
Siedlce Crop Formation
It isn’t known whether Poland had been chosen for a place of these manifestations, assuming that crop circles in similar amount were noted only in neighboring Germany. In other countries of Mid-Eastern Europe crop circles are less intense. Besides, harvest time has just begun and it isn’t known how long this phenomenon would remain active in this country, in the heart of Europe.
Additional information pertaining presented cases will be published if only new details emerge.

I recently was sent a link to a great article on the Net. Written by Preston Dennett, Phone Call from an Alien is a superb piece of writing and wealth of information. Below are just a few of the case files mentioned in the article.
Jack Sarfatti, quantum physicist, began receiving phone calls from a mechanical -like voice that promised to instruct him in 1952. He feels that what was told to him was highly influential in his successful career. In 1977, well known abductee Betty Andreasson also began receiving phone calls from aliens. While talking to her future husband and abductee Bob Luca, they were interrupted by a third party breaking into their conversation. Andreasson described the calls as a "strange language, " although she could understand what they were saying. The call also sounded like musical tones. She was abducted that very evening. She was warned of a upcoming tragedy. Only two days later, two of her children were killed in an accident.
Probably the most famous of all contactees was Switzerland's Eduard Billy Meier, whose researchers were involved in strange phone calls, allegedly from the Pleiadians. Brit and Lee Elders, along with Wendelle Stevens would be witnesses to the odd occurrences. These few examples of phone calls from aliens are only the beginning in Dennett's article. Check out this great article, and see the whole story.

I doubt that disclosure will come from America’s political establishment. But there are always other countries. There are always the aliens. The truth is already here; it’s simply waiting to land.
After all, what exactly are the secret keepers protecting? Let’s see. Power, wealth, control, their plans for the future, access to information, underground bases already built, the status quo. But there must be more. How about communication with aliens? Worm hole technology? Access to our genetic code? Or any number of technologies that we have not even begun to discuss openly in our society. Remember the statement of an Area 51 insider to aerospace journalist James Goodall – this was back in the 1980s – "we have things in the Nevada desert that would make George Lucas envious." In other words, Star Wars technology. Can you imagine the front page of the New York Times following a true disclosure of all this? "MASSIVE COVERUP EXPOSED." The biggest journalistic fiasco in history would finally be acknowledged, wholesale resignations would sweep the intelligence community, a political third party would do a clean sweep of Washington. Congress would promise emergency hearings, Arab oil nations would be in a state of collapse as oil price futures plummet, and the stock market would be in a headlong tailspin. People would realize that a massive power structure has existed for generations, and has siphoned away trillions of dollars. They would learn that it has played a dominant, though unacknowledged, role in shaping their lives. Think about NASA and the space shuttle program. There is no shortage of quiet discussions about the antiquated nature of NASA’s shuttle technology. Astronauts have died because better technology was denied to them. And that is merely the tip of the iceberg, for this issue goes far beyond NASA. No, people wouldn't be pleased or especially understanding. Heads would roll. The American system of government, as it has come to exist, and by extension American society, and by extension our current global civilization, is not compatible with true UFO disclosure. Disclosure would rip it all away. You might argue that this would be a good reason to maintain the secrecy. On the other hand, I would argue it’s the best reason for disclosure. As bad as things look today, I retain hope for a post-disclosure world. I retain a faith – yes, I guess it’s faith – in the value of truth over all things. A statement by my favorite writer, Leo Tolstoy, hangs before me every day: "the one thing necessary, in life as in art, is to tell the truth." I cannot believe that a society based on a foundational lie can be better than one based on a foundational truth. When the Soviet Union came to an end, people adjusted to face new problems, but also new opportunities. We would have to do the same. Following the sense of betrayal, following the frenzy of revelations, following the planetary chain reaction of scrutiny and exposure, we might just awaken to a new world one fine morning. A world in which the lies have been scrubbed away, and in which new truths are shining everywhere.

COSTA RICA: UFO Sighting at Miraflores de Heredia Photographs taken by Richard Sandi at Miraflores de Heredia, Costa Rica, on July 20, 2006. The eyewitness states: "I was in my car waiting for my wife when I suddenly decided to get out of the car and shoot a few photos of the sunrise, as the time was nearly 5:30 a.m. In the distance I saw two lights that appeared to descend from the sky. I saw them for a few minutes by managed to take two snapshots." "They were quite far so I used the zoom function on my Canon Powershot A-610" Translation (c) 2006. S. Corrales, IHU.

MEXICO: UFO Photograph Under Investigation
Ana Luisa Cid reports: July 2006 - This photograph was provided to me on June 10, 2006 by a young man from Tepoztlan (Morelos) who does not wish to disclose his identity. According to his account, the image was taken last year. He added that the person who took the photo was American and was very excited when the image was captured, believing that it could be a real UFO. Endeavoring to learn something more about the sighting, I shared the material with some Mexican researchers who informed me that they had no information on this alleged sighting. According to Tomas Amador and Damian Minaya, there is a man named Rolf Bertschin living in Tepoztlan, who makes artistic composites of this sort. I have visited Tepoztlan repeatedly trying to find Mr. Bertschin and some additional information, but have not able to obtain any results so far. Therefore, I cannot say with certainty that the photo is authentic, but I also lack the elements to dismiss it altogether. We know that editing software allows us to make digital montages, not mentioning the use of maquettes and models. However, we should bear in mind that Tepoztlan is a site where UFOs are frequently reported, and its residents speak of the phenomenon as an everyday occurrence. If the reader has any further information about the case in question, please contact me so that we may clarify the authenticity of the Mexican photograph once and for all. Translation (c) 2006. S. Corrales, Institute of Hispanic Ufology. Special thanks to Ana Luisa Cid.

DATE: Monday morning, January 12, 2004, 2:58 a.m.Location: Yelton St., Amelia, OH (Clermont County) Summary: A lighted, disc-shaped object with a hump was seen hovering silently over homes near Amelia, Ohio. The object, which moved in a bizarre fashion said by witnesses to "drop and stop" near the East Fork vicinity, was sighted by at least three separate persons in Clermont County at 2:58 a.m., early Monday morning, January 12. Also seen was a shadow that 'transformed into a ball' -- one person describing a peculiar tannish-brown object, separate from the lighted UFO-which strangely 'rolled down the side of a house.' The sighting was first reported by one of the witnesses to the Cincinnati UFO hotline on Monday, investigation of the incident has turned up additional witnesses to the incident. INCIDENT At 2:58 a.m. on Jan. 12th, 2004, 21 year old student Susan T. (name and phone number on file, deleted for this report) and her neighbor Jeff F. were in Susan's driveway when they spotted an object high in the sky. Susan states that the object was hard to describe but said it was disc shaped with a "hump" on top. Susan said that at one point the object stopped and began to "drop." She thought it was going to hit the ground. However, it suddenly stopped and hovered and then it began to drop again. For several minutes this object "stopped and dropped." She finally lost sight of it as it went below roof top level of her house. Susan went on say that this object must have been "covered in a million lights" and also said there was a red rotating light on the top of the hump and white lights on what she described as the belly or bottom of the object. She claims that the object seemed to turn on its side so that she could see the bottom part. This turning or flipping caused the object to look like it was changing shapes and getting bigger. It was when the object turned up that the "bottom" was covered in white lights that dimmed then grew brighter and changed patterns. Susan said that the object was -- from her perspective-larger then your thumb at arms length. She does not know how far away it was but said it may have been over as far as State Route 222. (There are several streets between there; Lumsford and Eiler Lanes.) She said the object may have been in the vicinity of the Phantom Fireworks Factory on Route 125, somewhat to the west of her location. Susan explained that she felt she was being watched and grew very frightened. Both she and her neighbor (Jeff F.) sat in the truck and watched this object for over an hour. It was 4:15 a.m. when it finally slowly went down behind her house. Susan then stated that something very strange happened. Right after the object went behind her house she saw what appeared to be a "shadow" on her roof that turned into a ball and rolled down the roof. She said that her neighbor also saw the shadow. Being very frightened neither person went behind the house to see where the object went. Susan feels that it did land or almost land. She also said that they did not see the object leave because she ran in into house after it went below the roof level and did not look anymore. I asked if there was any adverse reactions by the animals in the area when the object was in view and Susan said that dogs on the other streets were going wild when the object came down close to the ground. The second witness was then contacted for his comments on the report. Jeff F., a 45-year old disabled resident of Amelia, states that at 2:58 a.m. on Jan 12th, 2004, he and Susan were sitting in his truck in her driveway when they spotted the object hovering up over behind Susan's house. The object was up very high. They watched as this object began to drop very fast. It then stopped and hovered and then dropped again. This all happened very quickly. Jeff F. states that he looked away for a second and the light was back up in the sky in the same spot where they first saw it. It dropped and stopped again. This happened two times. Jeff F. says he does not know how big the object was but it had a slowly rotating red light on top. I asked if there were other lights and Jeff said that he did not see any other lights nor could he tell the shape. He said they watched this object for an hour while they sat in his truck. Jeff said this object eventually began to descend behind Susan's house. Just as it went out of view a very weird thing happened. Jeff F. said that a "light tannish brown shadow that turned into a ball about the size of a cantaloupe" rolled down Susan's roof. "This happened so fast it was unbelievable," he said. When this happened both became frightened and Susan ran in the house. Both parties told me that there was a garbage truck coming down the street at the time the object was in view but they do not think the garbage man saw the UFO. INVESTIGATORS COMMENT Jeff F. and Susan's stories differ in some aspects. Both witnesses sounded sincere in their claims. Susan still sounds upset about what she saw and expressed to me that she has received little sleep since her sighting. I find the incident with the "shadow" very curious. Both people expressed to me that it was "something" other then just a shadow, but "shadow" was the only word they could find to describe it. It seems that this "shadow" upset both witnesses the most because the object was too far away to cast any reflection on the roof.` Susan is a 21 year old student at the University of Cincinnati. She is out of school for the winter but will be back in school for the spring term. She is taking courses (30-hours per week) to be become an RN. 45-year old Jeff F. is now disabled but was formerly employed as an industrial engineer. Susan informed me that she sometimes has trouble sleeping and she and Jeff F. will sit in his truck to talk so as not to wake her family. That night they had spotted the UFO. Susan says the object was in the western skies when she first saw it. She says she does not know or could comment on how high the object was, saying she is not very good at judging distances. Jeff also said he could not guess on how high up this object was in darkness. ADDITIONAL WITNESS Through various telephone inquires of neighboring residents in the area contact was made with one other possible witness. A resident from a few blocks away (Eiler Rd) spoke with me by phone (name and phone number on file, withheld from this report) and said that around 3:30 a.m. on Monday morning, January 12, she looked out her window towards the West and saw a bright light in the vicinity of State Route 222. She did not know how high this object was but said it was a very big bright light above the trees. She said that from her perspective, the object was in a westerly direction toward the lake (East Fork). She could not give a clear estimate of elevation but claimed to have watched this object for a couple of minutes. After it allegedly disappeared she went back to bed. The time and date of the claimed sighting, plus general location of the alleged object, matches detail furnished by the first two witnesses from Yelton St. INVESTIGATION I contacted the Clermont County Sheriff's Dept. at 513-732-2231. No UFO sightings were reported to them during this time frame. Next, I contacted the Bethel Police Dept. at 513-734-2256. No UFO sightings were reported during this time to them. Additionally, researcher Kenny young placed a call to the Clermont Sun Newspaper "465 E. Main St., Batavia, Ohio, 513-732-2511." He spoke with the editor, Art Hunter. He was told they had not heard of any UFO sightings. Next, Young contacted the office at East Fork Lake State Park 513-734-4323. The telephone receptionist, Sandy, said she was completely unfamiliar with UFO sightings around the East Fork State Park vicinity. She did inquire about the witnesses. She explained that she would pass the information along to the supervisor, others in the office and the park rangers who patrol the lake at night. She took Young's telephone number and e-mail address and attached them to her report. Young said if anyone had information about this story to feel free to contact him. http://home.fuse.net/ufo/eastfork04.html Filed 1/13/04 Donnie Blessing Southern Ohio State Section Director MUFON

Distant brown object, slowly drifting, or stationary, at times, above San Bruno mountain towers, about 10,000 feet high. Lined up object behind radio tower. Moving too slowly to be an airplane. Not likely a drifting bag either.
I was riding my bike up San Bruno mountain, Radio Tower Road. Was a very blue sky, near the airport, where I often notice air traffic, and noticed this light brown object, as described above. I kept looking up at it, as I was riding up the mountain, and I kept re-spotting it, and noticed its movement, as described above. It was hurting my neck to look at it, so I looked away from it for half a minute. Also, though it appeared to be about twice as high as the local jet traffic, one jet may have gotten closer to it, and caused it to go away, or move. In any case, I was not able to relocate it. |

| Was sitting in my hot tub in my yard facing north at 10 pm on June 25, viewing the sky and stars. I saw two spheres, one was slightly above and behind the sphere nearest to me. Could not tell if they were attached, but the moved at same speed and in the same relation to the other. The were dark in color, grayish. There were no lights or sound. They moved west to east up the Dolores River Valley, and appeared to be following the river itself. I saw them in clear view and then they flew behind the tress in my yard then were visible again once they past the trees. I estimate they were about 100 feet above the trees they flew over. I could see them for 5 seconds. A quarter would have covered them up. Was not scared, just baffled. No idea what thes could have been. |

| Raddle -- On June 30, 2006, at 10:40 PM, in the country near the Mississippi River a silent object was spotted near the radio tower hovering about the height of the tower. I really couldn't determine its shape but it had amber colored lights in the shape of a curved V. My husband stopped his truck and got out to listen but the object was silent. My husband phoned me and said his hair was standing up. He almost went to the nearest house just so someone else could witness the object. He hurried to work to see if a co-worker would return to the site with him. He watched the object for eight minutes and eventually he could no longer see it.

| Every night I take a walk to the park around 10:30pm. For the past 3 months, I have seen many different types of crafts that are clearly not Earth made. I mostly see a Triangle shaped UFO about the size of a football field. This UFO has 3 white lights on the bottom three corners. I have also seen a Disc shaped UFO, with a bubble on the bottom of the ship. This ship had several lights on the bottom , white, amber, green, red. As the ship headed north east, it started to climb and I clearly saw what looked like windows! If someone wants to call me I will be more than willing to explain each of these occurances in full, as well as others, but I do not have enough time to explain all of them. I am a Mufon member. |

I was laying in my tent this morning with two friends and it was about 5am. Two of us were awake and laying on our backs looking up at the roof of the tent. Suddenly a super bright white light flew over our campsite straight above us. You could see the light clearly through the tent fabric and it looked like a orb. There are many trees shading the campsite from above so it was a view through some tree limbs. The object was about 20 feet above the tree tops and took less than 4 seconds to come and go. there was no approach sound and as it passed a low whine/hum was heard. It sounded like a turbine noise almost but it was not a plane or jet engine and not a helicopter sound either. I have never heard a sound like that. It was amazingly quiet whatever it was. At 5am the sun was JUST coming up to where we could just barely make out the inside of the tent but still very dark.
It tracked a straight line from the direction of our feet to our head as it passed over our tent as if we were just lucky enough to be right under and in line with its projected flight path. I felt mostly tense fear as it flew by. My first and only thought was that it was a ufo. I have seen many and somehow thats just what popped into my head. From the second i saw it to well after it left i was thinking crap i hope that thing doesnt see us. |

Getting home after running an errand, and just before turning into my driveway, I noted three craft at very low altitude and in a very tight pattern traveling North-Northwest over the empty block across from my house. I observe aircraft all the time day and night as a bit of a hobby, and my first reaction was, "Those craft are definitely flying lower than the 500 feet minimum." I made a full stop and jumped out of my car. The craft were traveling at about 20-25 mph. The one nearest me, less than 100 yards away, made an instantaneous stop over the apartment complex NW from my house. After about 2 seconds, it popped out of its hovering position into a new direction, perhaps 20? more Easterly. I managed to see one of the other craft perform a like maneuver. It seemed that the three craft were performing a zig zagging pattern designed to incorporate stops over targets of interest. The "popping out" of the stationary position that I described above reminded me of when you try to smoothly move a handle from its position, when that handle is held in place by a spring-loaded ball which is in a pocket; what's called a "detent". Try as you might, there's always a bit of an over-acceleration of the handle as you pop the ball out of the pocket. (This information may aid our engineers in reverse-engineering their technology, I would think.) The craft were identical in size and shape. At the bottom were 4 bright, rounds areas, which initially struck me as windows during the event. Now the critical observations from an engineer's mind (mine) regarding this: The crafts stopped INSTANTANEOUSLY, not very quickly, nor really really really quickly. They stopped absolutely at an instant in time. Clearly, any living beings in those craft would have had to have enjoyed a separate gravity "bubble", so as to be fully protected from the unbelievable acceleration/deceleration the craft exhibited. The four pods on the underside of the craft had what seemed to be of a color at the moment of observation, yet within seconds after the observation, I couldn't for the life of me remember the color!! I realized a few days later that the pods had to have been the actuators of the anti-gravity drive, and that they were lighted due to ionization of the air at a certain boundary layer. The inability to discern color was due to the fact that that boundary layer is an altered state of our space/time reality. The craft made no sound whatsoever. None. The directions and speed of the craft were ABSOLUTE. I mean that the craft were traveling in absolute directions and at an absolute speed. All I can say is that if you ever witness this, you will know what I mean. I stayed outside for a good 10 minutes afterwards, just to make sure my powers of observation were not altered in some way. After hearing dogs barking in the distance, and seeing commercial aircraft flying high overhead, and seeing cars driving down the roads, I parked the car properly and went into my home. The question that kept coming into my head was, "Who ARE we?", not who were they, or anything like that, but just who the hell are WE. I had the sense that they knew that I was observing them, but that it gave them no concern whatsoever, and that I was of no interest to them. I think that they were checking up on particular individuals of interest, much like a rancher might fly his helicopter over his cattle to look for particularly marked animals. |

SIGHTING BACKGROUND (Narrative of MUFON Investigator Tom Benson) Friends from Florida were visiting a co-worker of mine during the Christmas holidays. My co-worker knew the couple for three years. The co-worker's wife was a roommate of the witness' wife while in college. They had a discussion at the time concerning the movie, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND. The witness had not seen the movie, but mentioned his own sighting to his friends. I mailed a questionnaire and blank tape to the witness soon afterwards, when my co-worker reported the sighting to me.
SIGHTING ACCOUNT (Narrative of Witness) On June 26, 1975, my wife and I were headed west on Rt. 40 from Craig, CO, to Vernal, UT. I believe the sighting occurred slightly inside the border of Utah, but I'm not exactly certain. We were entering a valley with mountains on the horizon when I saw to my left (south) at 11 o'clock a flash similar to a reflection from a bright metallic object. The object then flew in front of us following the road leading west. At this time it was 1/4 to 1/2 mile away from us and several hundred feet from the valley floor. It stayed on this course for a short period of time and then flew off to the southwest at an incredible rate of speed. My wife was asleep at the time and, frankly, I was so stunned to see the thing that I forgot to wake her up. When I first saw the reflection and then the object, I was sure I was seeing a reflection on the glass so I moved my head and observed that the object was now clearer. I went through every explanation I could think of for what I was seeing, but it became evident that what I ovserved was a metal, polished, stainless steel type of craft that resembled two saucers placed together one upside down on top of the other. The best way to describe it was that it was the epitome of the so-called "flying saucer." It was near enough tso that I could see the midline separating the two ovals. This is not to say that it was a stripe or any such marking, as there were none, but it was the metal line that indicated where the two parts of the saucer were joined. I saw the object from a number of different positions so I am quite certain as to what I saw. It did not appear to be spinning, but could have been. The most pronounced feature was its incredible velocity. I might add, oddly enough, I don't believe there were any other cars present at the time. |

Toronto, Ontario Oval Or Lense Shaped Craft-Date: June 22, 2006-Time: Approx: 9:03 p.m.-On June 22.2006 I was headed east bound on Dundas Street while driving my city bus. It was my last trip of the day. I work for the TTC (Toronto Transit Commission). The sunset that evening was absolutely spectacular and was a treasure of golden orange and salomon shades with large wide sun beams expanding towards the sky as the sun was setting. As I was driving east I noticed how the sunset colours were reflecting off the bottoms of the clouds in my view down Dundas. The colours of these clouds was a most beautiful orange salmon colour. As I leaned forward to observe one large cloud in the near distance and one smaller one below it in perspective I saw what I thought was a piece of cloud move away from the first larger cloud and head east.
On a second look I realized that this "cloud piece" was oval or lense shaped but on it's edge. It was long as well and had a very defined shape and moved steadily at I can only assume to be "normal air speed" heading due east. The colour of this object was exactly that of the cloud...exactly. I am a very experienced amateur photographer. I have been using a camera for more that 30 years and I know clouds and their colour. As the object moved forward it went behind the lower smaller cloud and was out of sight. This sighting took place over a period of about 10 to 12 seconds I would say. If this was an intelligently controlled air craft of some kind then I would call it a Cloud Ship. Able to camouflage itself with surrounding or background colour and in essence become invisible. Back in the mid to late 90's a good friend of the families son told me that he and his boss saw a "huge" UFO in the sky over Lawrence and Victoria Park Avenues in broad day light! As soon as they saw it,within seconds it just vanished. We often thought that maybe they had a cloaking device glitch. :) This is a true encounter and for me of course this object is unidentified. Thank you to the witness for the report. source: hbccufo.com |

| Goodwood in Chichester, West Sussex, England-Date: July 21, 2006-Time: 2:00 a.m.-On Friday the 21st of July 2006 I was awoken at 2:00am with strange tickling sensations on my head. I got up, looked out of the window to see the sky completely clouded over. Lightening was coming from the south but in consistent flashes and not moving with the clouds. There was another lightning flash consistently in the north but very small, shining down through the clouds and again not moving with the clouds. After watching this for a while I noticed a small orange light coming out of the flashing clouds in the south. The object looked triangular and glowed bright orange. It moved below the clouds at a rapid speed over to the north and went up into the clouds where the other flashes were coming from. In less than two minutes it happened again in exactly the same way! Thank you to the witness for the report. source: hbccufo.com |

| Geneva, Switzerland-Date: July 22, 2006-Time: 1:00 a.m.-Number of witnesses: 1-Number of objects: 17-Shape of objects: Round- Full Description of event/sighting: I stood on my balcony at 1:00am on July 22, 2006. There were 17 orange-colored round lights in the night sky. They seemed to be several kilometers up in the air and hovering right over lake Geneva. They seemed to illuminate the sky around them and thus created a kind of proper "space" in the darkness. I watched for around 15 minutes until they faded away, one by one. Thank you to the witness for the report. source: hbccufo.com |
