Date:

September, 22, 2005

Location:

los angeles, California, United States

Summary:

strange glowing gas trail in night sky, with moving cone of light nearby

Date Reported:

9/23/2005 3:46:52 PM

Sighting Time: 

7:45 pm

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

hundreds

Duration: 

30 minutes

Description of Area / Surroundings

urban downtown LA I was driving north on Vermont Avenue near Wilshire Blvd. The objects were overhead to my west.

Full Description & Details

I saw a strange trail of glowing gas in the dark sky. It stood out brightly from the rest of the sky. It seemed to glow white, one end of the trail faded into many colors. It seemed to emit it's own source of light. Nearby in the sky there was a bizarre cone of light. It was moving away from the gas trail. The point of the cone seemed to be the front -- it was moving in the direction of it's point. This tells me that the light cone was not made by an airplane's headlights unless the plane was flying backwards. It was as if light was being swallowed by something -- drained into that cone. Then it vanished. The gas trail remained and slowly dissipated over the next half an hour. It continued to glow.

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

I could see lines on the object going both verticaly and horezontelly. There also apeared to be small craters on it. It was like a tiny little moon with a strange light shining on it.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

5 miles out over east sound. 2000 feet

Description of Area / Surroundings

An airbase is located very near where I spotted the object.

Full Description & Details

I was looking at airplane lights in the dark with my telescope. All the planes seemed normal. Then I found a large circle or sphere with a misterious throbing light on the bottom. The strange part (other than a fliing ball) was when i looked closely it appeared to have light shining on the botom of it and no light comming from the object itself. The light seemed to throb. The was moving quickly west and did not apear to be rotating.

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

A possibility is that it was a hot air boloon from the on and off firelike light shining on the bottom. But at night??

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Round very bright lights

Size of Object(s)

I am not very good at estimating sizes at a distance. From my vantage point the lights seemed no larger than a streetlight but clearly at a much higher altitude.

Description of Area / Surroundings

You can find Cricket Pavillion on a map of Phoenix.

Full Description & Details

I was at a Dave Matthews concert at Crickety Pavillion, had lawn "seats", my date for the evening pointed out some lights in the sky and asked me, "What the hell is that?" What we were looking at were about 4-6 lights in the sky, moving east or possibly northeast (I was facing north towards the stage from the lawn). The lights were very bright and very obviously not conventional aircraft, birds, ball lightning, weather balloons, or any other such thing. After hovering for about 30 seconds, they flew off to the east EXTREMELY RAPIDLY before completely just disappearing (NOT going out of view, as in disappearing over the horizon, but just plain DISAPPEARING into NOWHERE -- they just completely dimmed out.) We watched the sky to see if this would repeat, but it didn't. Most people were completely focused on the concert and did not see the lights.

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

never say never, but i've looked at hundreds of possible explanations and none seems to fit the data

Witness Background

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

My view is that just because we don't know what an object was, doesn't imply anything such as aliens, etc. But I am now among those who have seen with their own eyes UFOs that cannot be satisfactorily explained conventionally

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Large grey rounded. earlier this week (22 September 2005) the Toronto Sun had a front page story about UFO sightings here that described them as kind of 'boomerang' shaped. Could be like that.

Size of Object(s)

20 or 30' diameter, or spanning 'wings'

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

Low, maybe 50 or 60'.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Gardiner Expressway, west bound.

Full Description & Details

Summer evening. Heading west out of Toronto along the Gardiner Expressway, before the (old) Humber hump. We were actually quite a ways east of it as we could see the hump and the Gardiner as it takes the slow rise as it becomes the Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW).

I was about 13 at the time, my mother was driving.

As we drove a very large grey disc came off of Lake Ontario (from our left, to the south) about a kilometer or two ahead of us and abruptly turned toward us (east) over the highway. Prior to the Humber hump, it turned north and raced away.

It made no noise and when it left is was very fast.

All the cars on the expressway applied their brakes and you could see an awful lot of tail lights, hundreds I think.

I also remember staying up very late (about 03:00 a.m.) listening to the radio as a late night disc jockey was taking calls from people all over the area with sightings of other such objects, some lit, some not. I was fascinated and a little scared.

When I listened the following night, the disc jockey was gone, off for the week I think.

Sighting Time: 

10:30-11:54 p.m.

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The only thing I can describe is I first noticed the sound, extremely loud like a hundred train engines all revving up at the same time. I noticed a few orange-red lights. Went slow overtop my house but when it was going away it was extremely fast, i'll describe that like having a sling shot in your hand with a tiny pebble in it and pulling that sling shot as far back as you can and letting go, pebble flies so fast you can't see it.

Size of Object(s)

Object blended in with the sky, so I can't describe the object itself, however the lights only seemed telephone pole high.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

rooftop, telephone pole high.

Description of Area / Surroundings

I live right in the city of cumberland, MD, house's on both sided of my street. This object flew from and easterly to a westerly direction. We do have a ballistics laboratory a few miles away (ABL) Allegany Ballistics Laboratory. My third daughters grandfather works there.

Full Description & Details

My sighting began by first hearing an extremely loud noise which I describe as sounding like a hundred train engines, but right above my house. I seem to think I looked in my house at the clock to compare times as to when I first seen something and when it went away. I seem to remember the time of 10:28 p.m., this seems to be when I first heard it. Then the next thing I remember was taking a picture of the object just overtop of my house. I don't remember the object itself and what it looked like but I remember orange-red lights and only a few of them. I was so excited because I went out looking and something actually happened. As I leaned over my porch railing to view the object, I took the first picture. Then I had to wait for the light on my 110 instamatic camera to come back on. I didn't want to miss the shot. When I took that first picture, I was moving with the object so as not to be blurry when I got it developed. After I took that first picture,which it only seemed like seconds went by and I got the second picture when it was going away. It shot away so fast, almost the blink of an eye and you couldn't hear it or see it anymore. I went in my door and the time was 11:54 p.m. I will never forget 11:54 p.m. This time period seems weird because which seemed like seconds for the whole event, actually ended up being about an hour and a half. Well, I ended up getting my pictures developed and some interesting things showed up. I had already been in touch with MUFON in TX and they referred me to Bill Weiss in Frederick, MD. Anyway, I don't exactly remember how I got in touch with Budd Hopkins and his associate, you, Mr. Robbins, but you wrote me a letter asking for copies and in the long run i would receive my pictures back with any information about them. I ended up talking with Mr. Hopkins on the telephone and he said my pictures were very interesting, however I never received my pictures back or any information about them. This all took place back in 1995. Once I mailed them to Mr. Hopkins, that's the last I seen of my best copies. However I did keep the negatives along with some other copies. I heard the pics were sent to Bruce MacAbee, however he stated he don't recall my pics, however he was sent pics around that exact time period but they were suppose to be taken by a man. Here recently I was thinking Mr. Hopkins associate was Peter Davenport. However I was wrong. Someone referred me to a man named Lee Townsend, who I invited to my home to do a relaxation session on me. I ended up giving him copies of my negatives. When I asked for a copy of the recorded session, he became very aggitated. He sent me a transcribed copy of the tape, with much of the session missing. He described to me that the tape wasn't a good tape. Hmm sounded weird to me because it didn't seem like anything wrong with the tape to me at all and it was right near me to pick up the sound. Anyway, this sighting from march 12, 1995 is so much in my head, it's like it happened yesterday. There's only some parts of that night that seem foggy. Like I was suppose to forget. I've had many experiences before march 95 and I've had experiences since then and find them very, very exciting. "They" do not scare me at all. I would like them to visit more often, who knows what could happen. I could talk and talk forever about ufo's, my dreams of them, my awake viewings of them, people around me who have seen them, but some people just don't care. In the long run, I would like to know what happened to my pictures that were sent to Mr. Hopkins. I would like to know what "they" want. My children are involved in this, I have five of them and two grandchildren. Can you give me some answers? Cumberland police had many reports of this thing as well.

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

NO

Witness Background

I am a 43 year old mother of 5, grandmother of 2, graduated high school, have had jobs as telemarketer, bartender, housekeeper, meat wrapper, and currently driver for a local car dealer.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I believe in them, seen them a few times, have dreams of them, only read very little about them, my interests comes from my own experiences which started from a sighting in baltimore, md when i was a kid, which i can remember like it was yesterday.

Other Comments

I just want to know exactly who they are, what they want with me and my children. How they find me, seems like they follow me. I've heard of implants but not sure if I have any, I do have a weird noise in my left ear that reminds me of some kind of morse code or something and I do have a perfectly straight scar behind my ear. Many other things that seem like it would take forever to type it out.

Reported Sighting? 

Yes

Reported To: 

MUFON, Mr. Weiss, Mr. Hopkins and yourself. The police department like a day or two later. Some web sites years after the sighting.

Summary:

Around 7:20 pm I saw a bright white orb crossing the western sky leaving a concentrated trail of smoke, and having a hazy comet-like tail immediately behind the object.

Date Reported:

9/22/2005 11:15:20 PM

Sighting Time: 

7:20 pm

Day/Night: 

Dusk/Evening

No. of Witnesses: 

at least 5

Duration: 

3 to 5 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

White ball with a comet-like hazy tale. The object resembled what I remember hale-bopp looking like, only several times larger and moving fast enough to cross the sky in a few minutes.

Size of Object(s)

I have no idea what actual size was, but it was 5 or 6 times the diameter of the appearance of Mars on the southwest horizon.

Description of Area / Surroundings

I was in an urban area, in Scottsdale, AZ, heading toward downtown Phoenix.

Full Description & Details

In the western sky, around 7:20pm, there was a long dense trail of smoke or cloud that zig-zagged across the sky. At the head of this trail of smoke was a white ball that appeared to be heading southeast. The white ball had a hazy tail immediately behind it, giving it an appearance similar to a comet. The white ball seemed to burn out when it got closer, and the trail of smoke started to dissipate. Traffic around us stopped to look up to see what it was. I thought it might be a meteor or perhaps government missle testing over the pacific ocean but we really have no idea and would like to find out what it was. If you have any information could you please forward?

Thanks!

5:45pm, but lasted to nightfall

Daytime

No. of Witnesses:

Duration: 

An hour at least

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Very simply they were white roundish lights. Could not add anymore than that.

Size of Object(s)

Holding my arm out then to grab it with my fingers I would say it was maybe an inch or less. Hard to say for actual size as they were the distance of planes. So they could be the size of planes, or smaller if their light aura expands its visual with glow. So, perhaps the size of planes.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Urban area. Lot's of houses and businesses. One very small power plant 5 minutes away from my position. To the North of the location I was viewing the UFO's around 7 minutes away there use to be a small military base. No longer there since 2-3 years. To the South West of the location I was viewing there is some station that sets of an alarm that sounds like it must be for tornado warnings, and sounds exactly as a horn rotating 360 degrees as it's horn alarm fades away and then comes back again and repeats. There is also an airport 20 minutes away South West.

Full Description & Details



Between 5-7pm

Two white lights, circular. At first thought it was perhaps planes, but both stood still exactly at their spots and had maintained their light during last hours of light on to the night.

Distance from my view is about as far as a plane but much brighter. When first spotted them it was still plenty of light and sun and thought them to be peculiar as I recognized that they did not move and were stationary in the sky. These lights did not flicker or flash, just solid white. The position or arrangement of these two solid hovering lights was as follows: They were away from each other about 6-8x the length of thier sizes. And one is higer up than the other, that one being on the right side. So, the left side is lower than the right one. The one higher was about 6-7x it's size higher up. I was facing West to see them, so the higher up one on my right is to the North side, and the lower one to my left is to the south side.

I asked an available passing bystander to see what I was seeing and he mentioned to me dismissively that they must be antenna towers with a light at the top. But they were not, as there are no towers in that area, let alone that high. Again, as high as a plane.

As I arrived home it was night already, decided to grab my camcorder and video tape them. The taping is not great but very visible to show people. These lights remained there for a good one hour, and as I came out of another building they were no longer there. If you could see stars in the day that's what they would look like but more brighter.

If it comes out okay for this formating above I have typed "X's" to better describe the visual position.

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

Definately not stars as I saw them in the day. Not animals as again they were stationary. Not clouds because they were luminous lights that shined on thru the night. If any mistake it would have to be man-made, but none seem concievable; hence Unidentified. Blimps can't stay stationary or come in two and that glow. The same for airplanes. I don't know the nature of weather balloons as to wheather they can glow or burn with a white light and appear as two. The best man-made explanation was as the bystander mentioned; two towers with a light on top, but there are no towers in that area especially that high up so airborne.

Witness Background

I'm in delivery so drive all day. Took 3 years of college, don't take drugs and as somewhat of a newcomer to the subject I am a bit intimidated by what the David Icke fellow has to say.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Extreme skeptic all my life, had a very negative view towards those who like to believe in such things. Only 6-7 months ago was presented mathematical evidence that was undeniable regarding things extra-terrestial. Since then have been more educated upon the subject and in Anthropology in general. I don't like to call myself a "believer" but rather someone who is now aware. Again this was 6-7 months ago that my awareness and humble study has occurred, and am reporting a possible ufo sighting that occurred 2 weeks ago. Once or twice I've noticed odd things in the sky that could've been planes or something else, this one is the most unusual and have caught it on video tape.

Other Comments



There is no official organization in regards to this global phenomenon, which would really strengthen the purpose of informing people earlier and explaining many things. This oppurtinity to report in such detail and also this site in general is in that direction. I hope it grows and so may aid more like myself.
