Size of Object(s)many small lights 2 kms across Distance to Object(s) & Altitude5 - 10 kms Shape of Object(s)small round coloured lights Color of Object(s):many colours Full Description & DetailsUs 2 varsity students were travelling from Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) back to Rhodes University, Grahamstown, Cape Province, South Africa. Hitch hiking across Africa, tired, hungry and anxious to get back varsity. Had a lift with a dodgy charactar (who was on the front page of "Die Beeld" newspaper, Afrikaans, for murdering his wife and getting out of jail on parole, and who could not speak any English), driver mis-understood us, and thought we were going to Trompsburg, dumped us of side of highway, thinking he did us a favour, but we were several hundred kilometers off course, and lost at sunset. At about 7pm we were trying to camp on side of highway, but got rained on, so hiked to underpass for shelter. An hour later we started hiking again as rain stopped. We saw the lights of Trompsburg about 5 kms to west. There were small hills. A huge string of lights appeared, possibly 2 or 3 kms long. We assumed it was a train. But it was too big. Much too long, and trains only had white lights, these were coloured. They moved - without any noise at all, from left to right, right to left, up and down and every which way. We were stunned. Something happened which I can't explain - we could not do anything except watch. We wanted to turn and run, but we couldn't. We were seriously scared, but could not even blink - something had us glued to the sky. After some time, maybe 2 or 2 minutes, or 20, I don't know, the lights stopped moving to and fro, and they suddenly shot off away from us in the opposite direction, probably faster than a Saturn V rocket. The next day the local newspapers reported numerous "UFO Sightings" in the East Cape Province. I think we crapped in our pants. A true story. Witness BackgroundScience graduate, 25 years in corporate management @ SAB Milller, brewer by trade but currently in I.T., both professionally and at university (U.N.I.S.A.). Friend with me was Dave Wood, son of the Bishop of "Matabeleland" in Rhodesia.

Suddenly on my left side, I saw a kind of flying man, a robot or something like that. My first though was "it's a remote control toy", I didn't stopped, 'cause I just couldn't. It was flying obove the trees, I didn't see any kind of flying helper or something that make it fly.

It was dark that morning when i notice a triangular shadow in the sky. I was amaze at the size of the object . It was about three football fields and that the oject was still and not making a sound.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude50 yds Shape of Object(s)disk Color of Object(s):white Full Description & DetailsBefore going overseas to be a missionary, we were doing some training in Richmond, VA. One day my family and I went to DC for some sightseeing. Before leaving DC to head back to Richmond, we wanted a photo of the Capital Building. My wife got out of our vehicle and walked up to the Capital Building to take a photo. It was about 9:00 PM. There were some security guards around and they gave my wife permission to take a photo. We got back to where we were staying outside of Richmond and we downloaded the photos on my laptop to show our friends. As we were viewing the photos, we noticed this round, saucer like object right above the Capital Building. As we zoomed in there was no mistake about it, it was a UFO. It was too high to be anything else. the photo is unbelievable! Witness BackgroundPastor in Austin, TX. Master of Divinity. Married for 13 years and father of three. Other CommentsI believe the photo is so compelling that I am reluctant to send it to anyone. It may be worth some money. Especially since the UFO was right above the US Capital Building.

Size of Object(s)dont know Distance to Object(s) & Altitude1 mile Shape of Object(s)orb Color of Object(s):Orange Full Description & DetailsAppeared to be constant speed and heightfor approximately five minutes and appeared to disappear upwards until the light was no longer visible. After about 20 minutes another one would appear from the same direction. Then about 10.45pm two were in the sky at the same time one following the other about 1 minute apart, there was no sound at all. Sometimes the orange lights looked like an orb shape. We have a velux window in the loft and were able to see them quite vividly. We were unable to get anything on our video camera as it was too dark. Our next door neighbours saw these as well.

Full Description & DetailsI was gazing the night sky, which was pretty clear that night.I had a simple binocular with me.when i really focused into the sky through the binoculars, there was another layer of stars which i could see, which is otherwise not visible with the naked eye.
Witness BackgroundI am an Electronics/Telecommunication engineer based in India.My nationality is Indian.I am 22 years old. Other CommentsThe sad part about this sighting is that it happened a few years back( 3-4 years) and since i had no idea what to make of it and who to tell it to ( obviously who would wanna believe it), i kept it to myself.Thus i cannot recollect the date when i saw it.

Size of Object(s)Larger than apparent star-size Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeUpper atmosphere Shape of Object(s)Lights Color of Object(s):Bright white Full Description & DetailsOn 13 August 2005 at approximately 11pm my friend and I were star gazing from a north-facing balcony in Kitsilano, a suburb of Vancouver, looking towards the night sky above Burrard Inlet and Stanley Park. We were hoping to catch the last of the Perseid meteor shower. It was a clear night but with lots of artificial sodium-light pollution. My friend pointed to an area of night sky and said there was a funny light there, I looked up just in time to see a single brilliant bluish-white flash at a fairly low level, several times larger than a star and much more intense. No more flashes appeared. My friend said he has seen 3 flashes leading up to that final flash, travelling east to west and appearing irregularly over several seconds. We thought this odd.
