Other Comments

In 1976 my husband saw lights come out of a single cloud in the otherwise cloudless night sky, seperate into 3 lighted ufos that hovered briefly with rotating counterclockwise multicolored lights, like the mother ship, then streak off at high speed. This was in south Louisiana w hile traveling on Highway 10 eastward. Did not report this sighting . . . .having lived through an very frightening and unexplained encounter with the Bermuda Triangle as a youth in the US Navy, he did not talk about it to others. There was another witness but both of these men are deceased.

Full Description & Details

This event occurred at approximately 4:00 pm to 5 :00 pm on a Friday evening. I know that it was a Friday because I had to go to work the next day and because I remember it as being the start of my work week. I worked a weekend shift rotation while employed with the City and County of Honolulu HI. My previous employment was with the U.S. N. as a Radioman (Radiations And Directional Intercept Operations Manager). I had a very high Top Secret and Nuclear clearance during my 20 year career in the U.S.N. During my entire active duty career I had a couple of incidences that I will not reveal because I believe that they happened as a result of employment in the Navy. What I witnessed in Ewa Beach Hawaii however forever changed my mind about unexplained Unidentified Flying Objects. I can easily identify U.S.N. and foreign navy aircraft carriers and how they operate. The object that I saw was about 5 times the size of our modern day Aircraft Carriers and was hovering about 5 feet over the water. My cousin's house in Ewa Beach was approximately 100 ft away from the shoreline. We were sitting outside on a picnic table enjoying the cool Hawaiian breeze when I saw immediately right in front of me about 100 feet away the largest aircraft carrier that I had ever seen floating about 5 feet above the air. This incident lasted approximately 10 seconds. When I was sitting on the picnic table I had my neighbor friend's 19 year old daughter sitting besides me. We were both sitting on the picnic table across and facing my cousin and her husband. When this clearly metallic looking craft suddenly appeared out of no where, the first thought that came to mind was the fact that there was no wind or air displacement that would normally be associated with immediate movement of such a large craft. I could clearly see the exterior of the gray metal iron works rivets holding the large sheets of 10 gauge metal sheets that comprise the makeup of a aircraft carrier. The exception being that this particular aircraft carrier had a large approximately 10 foot high by 20 foot port window glass which clearly contained humans standing inside in a group and observing the Hawaiian scenery as if they were on a sightseeing tour. The group appeared to be a mixed assortment of men, women and children all dressed in civilian clothing. I do not think that they knew that I could see them. As soon as they realized that I could see them and that their masking/invisibility capability had failed them they all jumped away from the port window and the object/ship immediately zoomed away ala warp speed. Again there was no movement of air or sound of their departure.

I was in the Navy for twenty years and had never seen any UFO's. I served from 1972 through 1992. I have experienced being onboard a guided missile destroyer operating off the coast of Russia during the cold war and being buzzed by Russian Mig 21's and know what it feels like to have a jet's wind drag hit the ship and the concussion/explosion associated with the overflight of a jet aircraft buzzing right over our destroyer.

This is what was missing with the UFO Aircraft Carrier it did not have a winddrag or movement of air for such a large object. The air displacement for an object 5 times larger than our present day aircraft carriers would have started a mini tornado.

This event was also witnessed by a famous Hawaii Radio Talk Show host by the name of Larry Price. I know this because enroute to work the next morning I was listening to the Hano Hano Show and Larry Price asked his co-host Michael Perry to rate his creditability. At first Michael Perry kind of joked with him about his creditabilit but later realizing the seriousness of the question attested to Larry Price's high credibility and high standing in the community. Larry Price than shared his experience on the air and with the tourist that were part of thier Hano Hano Show that morning and later asked if any of the radio listeners had had any similar experiences to call in so that he could know that someone else had also witnessed the same thing. I did not call in, but there was another gentleman from the Isand of Maui that called in and admitted that he also had seen the same object. We all agreed to the appearance and disappearance of the object and its characteritics.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

This object is not USN or manmade to my knowledge. But the occupants appeared to be humans.

Witness Background

USN twenty year career.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before, I believed that people who reported UFO's were dillusional. What I saw was not a saucer. But, it was clearly an UFO. As a result of this sighting I still think that people are dillusional. I DO NOT ENJOY, OR HAVE READ ANY UFO Literature. I do not watch or have ever watched any movies related to Star Trek, Battle Star Galatica or other Space HIGH SCIENCE Fiction type movies.

Other Comments

It is my opinion that this sighting was eveidence of time travelers from the future visiting our present day. I now have an opinion on how time travel can occur. It has to do with magnfication.

Daytime

No. of Witnesses:

Duration: 

one or two minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The best to describe it: round (but the lower seemed flat but something like a "swell" under it, hard to explain), VERY white, looked like as if it was slightly changing of form (maybe like a disforming mirror that you would move), not bright, but seemed surrounded by a white haze.

Size of Object(s)

maybe 5 meters. (The larger of a small house)

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

Less than 2 kilometers, IF it was above Montignie.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Over populated city. Only houses or small buildings, no skyrappers or such.

Full Description & Details

Please first excuse my bad english.



So, I went by the window to look around, like I do sometimes, and at watching towards the side of M* street, my attention have been drawn on a white object flying in the blue sky. (Despite the few slight clouds)

It was very far away in the horizon (may have been above Charleroi-South or Montignie-sur-Sambre (Aeras of the city) and was flying towards west), quite high in the sky (From the distance, the sight was a lil higher than the houses, but only in panorama fact), but it looked rather small (maybe a lil bigger than a very small house?).

Since it was far, I cant tell exactly its form. The best to describe it, it was sort of round on the upper side, but below, it looked rather flat, but with something below, a sort of form. White, very white but with some "shadow/sunlight" effect because of the sun, so it's sure it was something solid. and it sometimes seemed to change slightly of form. Plus a very slight, transparent (but maybe the sun was the cause of this) white "cloudly" haze around it.

The way it was flying was too slow to be a plane, too "steady" to be a bird.

So, the "fly" rythm was almost hypnotising. steady speed, following a "steady" line or flight, despite it was sometimes slightly "bouncing" in the sky, but still advancing.

I couldnt tore my eyes from it, and I had a slight but strange feeling into me, but I was not afraid, it was... okay it's hard to say... as if my thoughts were attracted by it. but it was very slight.

And suddenly, in one second, it stopped, made a down and up move and vanished like a "POP!"

So... It was not a bird.

People in my street didnt seem to notice it, I dont know about others.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Nope.

Witness Background

Jobless but following trainings to have a diplome in education.

Full Description & Details

we were sitting in the lower end of chautauqua lake somewhere around 4:00 am in a boat.i was awake while the others were kinda dosing off. i was watching the 4 lane which runs on the east side of the lake. you can see the clearance lights from the trucks ,above the trees, because the expressway is higher than the lake.i was shocked to see a set of the amber lights turn toward the west and crossed the lake in the exact same place where the bridge across the lake at bemus point/stow is today. there was complete silence as it crossed and the craft dissapeared above the wooded area of the west side of the lake. we were about a mile from where it crossed. i had asked the others in the boat if they had seen the lights and two of them said they did see it.

whatever it was had 4 or 5 amber lights on the side in a straight line. there was no pulsating or movement of the lights separately. they looked as though they were one unit.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural foothills.

Full Description & Details

We had a fire south of us that afternoon, which flared up again about midnight and the fire crews had to go put it out. I got up with a headache and went out on the front poarch to have a cup of coffee. I noticed what looked like a large spotlight in the sky and presumed it was a CDF helecopter or airplane looking for smoke from the site. It was too quiet though, but looked like it was about 200-300' above the hills and about a mile south, so the quiet was not much of an issue. It kept coming north along the hills and I wondered why they were not circleing the fire area. Then I realized it was quiet and too big for a spotlght. Then I was shocked to see it turn from white to orange. It was a sphere, not a saucer, and had no windows visible, but the outside was all orange glow like an LED light brightness. I ran for my glasses in my work truck, put them on to make sure I was seeing what I did, and it was surely there - the orange sphere and no blinking lights or anything. I then got my digital camera and tried to take some pictures, but first the disk was full, then the automatic flash was on!!! I got several, and if you lighten them up you might see the orange spot.

I watched it until it went out of site over the valley going towards Sacramento. I wrote Coasttocoast about it almost immediately, but never heard back. Guess they get these things all the time:-) I've never seen anything like it.

After a week, it occurrs to me that of the similarity with what was seen in "The Braxton County Monster" as a "mother ship". Maybe something crashed and caused the fire and then they came looking for their 'man'???

I'm tempted to call the local volunteer firemen and see if they know what caused the fire. It looked to be a fairly isolated area of brush.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

No.

Witness Background

I've worked for the State of California Dept of Transportation for over 30 years. Am resonably educated and observant. Currently in Construction of Highways and a water quality specialist.

Date:

January, 1967

Location:

Provo, Utah, United States

Summary:

I was walking back with several 100 BYU students from a basketball game in 1967 when we all saw an orange object fly across the valley. It remained stationary over Utah Lake and 3 smaller white lights (similar to flares) were dropped at equal intervals. They faded as they reached the lake's surface. Then the pulsating orange object flew off quickly to the south and disappeared.

No. of Witnesses:

Duration:

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

All objects were round. Please read more descriptions above.

Size of Object(s)

The orange UFO was about half the size of the tip of a finger if held up in front of us. The white objects were much smaller.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

The UFO was several miles away and maybe 7,000 ft. high.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was both rural and semi-urban. About 50,000 people lived in the Provo, Utah area then with about 28,000 students on campus. A large steel plant was located in nearby Orem, Utah then.

Full Description & Details

Several 100 students at BYU & I were walking back from a basketball game about 10 p.m. when we all saw a pulsating orange object approaching Utah Lake to the west in the distance.

Since the campus is set on a plateau above Utah Valley and Provo, we had a clear view of the UFO which stopped above the lake. It then released 3 smaller white lights which descended at equal intervals slowly & disappeared or faded out as they came closer to the lake surface. The orange UFO then changed direction and disappeared quikcly to the south.

I drove a car full of friends in my '65 Mustang out towards the lake, but we all hesitated worried about what we might find. A Civil Air Patrol airplane passed us overhead, going to the lake area. The next day there was no mention of either the UFO or the airplane in the local newspaper or on the Salt Lake City TV stations.

Summary:

My brother in law (a pilot) and I saw an enormous black triangle flying (a better description might be floating) between us on Bald Mountain and the next ridge. The object was flying way below any conventional aircrafts stall speed with very little sound. Only a low buzzing or humming was heard. There were 7 red lights on the leading edge 1 at the point and three down each side.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Black Triangle Approximately 40' to 50' thick by 300' + in span. 7 Very bright lights down the leading edge. 1 at the point and 3 down each side. There were no signs of doors or windows. It was a solid object and the shape could be seen easily against the night sky. We were very close to it, no more than 1/4 mile away.

Size of Object(s)

You would have to use both hands to cover the object at arms length. Approx 50' tall by 300' + span.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Very Rural Area. Rocky Mountain Top with pine trees at lower elevations around the mountain. No bases or plants nearby.

Full Description & Details

The following statement is as accurate as possible taking into consideration the amount of time that has passed.

Bald Mountain 4x4 Trail located in Shaver Lake Ca.

On a crystal clear, star filled night in 1989 we had just climbed down the stairs of an old fire watchtower on the top of the mountain when my brother-in-law and I witnessed a rather amazing event. We watched an enormous Black Triangle with a span of approx 300' + flying (maybe a better description would be floating) between the next ridge and us. This object was flying way below any conventional aircrafts stall speed the only sound was a low buzzing or humming. There were 7 red lights on the leading edge 1 at the point and three down each side.

The object was first seen by my brother-in-law about eye level directly behind me approx 1/4 mile out moving N. N.W. at 15-20 mph. it made a very slow turn towards the N.E. climbing very slowly. When the object reached 150 to 200 ft. higher than our elevation it resumed its original N. N.W. coarse which put it between the next ridge and us. We could see the outline of the craft against the star filled sky. There were no markings and no signs of doors or windows. The Red lights were VERY bright red and did not flash or change color. After we watched amazed for a few seconds my brother-in-law made a mad dash for the truck and returned with my 8-cell mag light. He flashed it several times at the craft and to our amazement a rather blinding white light with a little heat was shinned back at us. It was brighter than any spotlight I have ever seen! It scared me to death! I was screaming at my bother-in-law to turn the light off!

It slowly moved away and behind the mountains to the east of us.

The strange thing about this event is the fact that my bother-in-law and me don't remember what happened after this? The next thing we know we are on our way home and it’s really late? We were going to spend the night up on the tower? Why were we on the road for home?

We didn't talk about it for a long time (several years) but now that we have been talking about it more I asked him if he remembered any more about it. Neither he nor I do......

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

NO WAY ! My brother in law has been flying for years and I know enough about aircraft to know what it takes to stay in the air. This thing was using another type of propulsion. My bother in law is convienced the humming we heard was some sort of antigavity or elctromagnetic noise.

This was real and it was scarry ! I have never seen anything with this much detail since. I still watch the sky thinking I might see somthing again and have seen a few strange things in both daytime and night time that you might call unidentified ? but this was totally different ! It should not have been able to stay in the air !
