Full Description & Details

On Monday the 8th March 2004, between 2200hrs and 2225hrs, I was enjoying coffee with my wife and 2 friends at their house

in Berwick which is in the City of Casey, Melbourne Australia.



We all were outside enjoying the still (but slightly cool) night. There was a full moon which was visible only intermittently as it frequently became obscured behind the high cloud cover. At ground level, there was very little wind.



I observed 2 bright orange lights traveling at quite a speed coming from an easterly direction and heading west towards the city of Melbourne. (Berwick is

approximately 35 kilometres to the south east of the city).



The first light initially appeared alone and our first thoughts were that a plane was on fire. Within a matter of seconds, a second object appeared from the east and rapidly caught up with the first object. Both orange glows then seemed to slow right down to a crawl and at one point I thought one of the objects had assumed a hovering position. The first object then continued on its westerly route while the second one slowly gained speed again and assumed a northerly route.



Both objects then climbed smoothly in their separate parts of the sky (now separated by quite a distance) until they vanished through the high cloud.



At approximately 2218hrs, to our amazement a single orange glow, exactly the same as the first two objects came into view from exactly the same easterly direction (heading west). All three objects appeared exactly the same in size and made absolutely no sound. They all moved in the same manner, and seemed to slow rapidly.



The third object appeared to pulsate as it too headed in a northerly direction (but admittedly this could've been due to breaks in the cloud).





This event amazed us all but we cannot rule out the possibility that they were aircraft.



I am however, sceptical that they were aircraft because of the following;



They made no sound whatsoever.

They slowed almost to a standstill for a short while.

I have not seen any aircraft with continuous orange glowing lights completely encompassing it.

They were very low (I have not seen planes in that location at that altitude before).

There was next to no wind which would've assisted in hearing an aircraft's engines at that altitude.



I would be interested to hear of any further sightings in and around Melbourne at this time.

Witness Background

I am 36 years old and served as a Frontline Officer in the New Zealand Police Force for 10 years and had passed all sergeants examinations. (I am now employed as a Road Safety Officer for the City of Casey Council). My wife also served as a frontline Officer in the NZ Police for 10 years. She is 37 years old. My good friend, a 35 year old who worked with the Royal New Zealand Airforce for 12 years and is currently a manager of a prominent Aircraft parts and maintenance business also witnessed these three phenomena. His wife, a 35 year old again saw all three bright orange lights. She has passed all her exams to be accepted into the waiting list for the Victoria Police.

Other Comments

I believe there is something out there, but whether it has to do with other life forms or

spiritual beings (evil or otherwise) I am not sure.

I am sure (beyond all reasonable doubt), that what we all saw was unusual and I had never seen this phenomena before..

Hi,

My name is David Yacobus Hengkengbala, 21 Years old, I'm an Economic student from Satya Wacana Christian University in Salatiga (Central Java-Indonesia). I just want to send a picture of UFO maybe? I found your website from MSN search engine...

On Sunday,12 Oktober 2003, me and my friend Adit (also from Economic but 3 years older than me) were taking picture of scenery around Salatiga for our website. We took pictures from an unused bank building of BHS Bank. After we took dozens of shots around the building, suddenly my friend pointing to the distance and yelling "11... 11..." (I was getting ready to take pictures of the Mount Ungaran). I look at the 11'o clock direction and saw that something is... glowing? or perhaps I should say 'flickering' I think it's above the RawaPening Lake. It's like the sky is distorted and I could see something... weird? Then I just press the shutter and take the picture without having any chance to adjust the camera's focus. I'm disappointed when I'm getting ready to take another shot, the 'thing' or should i say the 'object' is like turning its color to transparrent so in a flash the sky just seemed empty.

We already question our friends about what is this,

Some says... look it's an airplane, it's a chopter, it's abird, it's a kite, it's a flying plastic bag, it's just a hallucination, even some says you must be joking right? Some think that I manipulate the picture. (Though I can use the Adobe Photoshop or other picture editing software, It's not funny for me to made such kind of hoax). And no plane route around that mountain.

Since nobody believe us here, so we just send the picture to UFO mania...

I never believed in UFO, but I think I saw something...

Anyway the picture I send you is without any modifications at all.

What we saw was light...

But the camera captures dark object with white glowing color on it's lower part...

We already protect the original picture in the camera's internal memory so we won't wipe it up accidently.

Beginner's luck maybe?

And here is the data:

Resolusi: 1200x900x24b JPEG

Setting : Good (Lowest Resolution -- we don't have any appointment wth UFO, if we knew, we will use the BEST Resolution ^_^)

Kamera : Kodak CX 6330

Date : 12 Oktober 2003

After that day, I wait for days just to look for such kind of encounter...

Results?

Big O... BIG ZERO...

I even try to capture flying objects with my camera such as birds, kites, airplane, etc...

Results in blurring picture...

So the object must be hovering and rotating...

You know what I'm thinking of now?

Hi-tech cloaking device?

Comments about the image(s): "I didn't take any pictures of the sightings that I had but I have made graphic depictions of those sightings. Because the sightings happened at night or shortly after dusk, I had to use the star field at night background. I did this to provide as much realism as I could. I lightened the image slightly, so the picture can be seen, but that night was so dark, the only thing I detected was the amber orb initially."

Full Description & Details

December 30, 1967, at approximately 7:10 p.m.,while visiting relatives in Bithlo, Florida. Bithlo is about halfway between Orlando and the Cape. Watched UFO glide over mobile home without sound. UFO was joined by another craft that came from another angle. Both crafts landed in a remote area less than a quarter-mile from mobile home. Moments later, a formation of helicoptors and two jets began flying over the general area of where the two crafts had landed.

After about ten minutes, the choppers and jets left, which I thought was rather odd.

At approximately 1:50 a.m. New Year's Eve one of the UFOs started rising from the location that it had landed, then the eastern skyline exploded with a brilliant whitish, orange color. A Minuteman missiles was launched. The UFO then moved near the rising missile then the UFO fell like a falling leaf, then it zipped to the right and vanished. I never did see the second craft leave. That incredible event was only the beginning of numerous sightings/encounters that I personally witnessed beginning February 13, 1968 and ended September 15 of same year. The Apollo program was underway. I witnessed numerous sightings near a lake, involving a craft and a dark sedan. I had two other witnesses with me that night. I kept a journal of the thirty-two sightings that I personally witnessed. The first on 12/31/67 and the most current one 4/24/02.

-----------

UPDATED REPORT as reported on Coast to Coast AM website on 3/11/05:

In 1967, I was working for Bendix Corporation. I was 27 then. The Bendix Logistics department, the machine shop and the electrical shops were located (and may still be) on the southwest side of the (VAB) Vehicle Assembly Building.

Launch Complex 39, Pads A & B for the huge Apollo/Saturn V rockets that launched American astronauts to their historic journeys to the Moon and back stood like giant sentinels in the background.

During the 1967 Christmas holiday’s, my brother-in-law, Jon invited me to spend New Year’s Eve weekend with his family.

At the time the Baker family lived in a mobile home on Sixth Street in Bithlo, Florida. Bithlo is about 32 miles west of the Cape and was then a quiet remote area where cattle and horses grazed amongst fields of grass, dotted with hundreds of adolescent pine trees and saw palmettos.

On the evening of December 30th, Jon, my brother-in-law and I were standing in the kitchen sipping hot coffee, engaged in light conversation over one thing or another.

Suddenly, an amber flash of light spilled through the kitchen window that faced east. I reached around, flung the front door open wide and stared outside.

I thought a meteor had crashed to earth yet there was no impact sound.

My attention was drawn to an orange orb, about the size of a basketball. It was hovering about a hundred feet above the roof of the mobile home and at least a hundred feet east of the trailer.

A split second later, the orb vanished, but before it disappeared, its brilliant amber color reflected off the bottom of a silent-moving metallic circular-shaped object, that measured perhaps 50 to 60 feet in diameter.

Moments later, a beam of cone-shaped red light shot out from beneath the UFO as it moved swiftly east. It was then joined by a second UFO. The two objects converged then floated like falling leaves caught on the wind as they dropped below the dark tree line in the distance and out of sight.

Moments later, Air Force Jets and a formation of Apache Helicopters converged on the UFO hot spot.

The choppers switched on beams of light, and searched the dark terrain below for the two UFO's.

At approximately 1:50 a.m. one of the UFO’s began rising from the exact location where it had landed nearly seven hours earlier. It continued rising until its outer structure took on the appearance of a star. It just hung there in the dark, starry sky.

Then, a thunderous roar broke the eerie silence, as a Minuteman-two missile climbed into the dark sky. As it initiated its arch downrange, the UFO performed an incredible display of anti-gravity feats before it moved near the missile. The UFO then darted to the right, paused then zipped away.

I waited until after dawn for the second UFO to leave but it never did. If it did, I didn't notice it leaving.

The above incident was just the beginning of UFO activity that continued to happen in the remote area well into the next year.

The cycle ended oddly enough before Apollo 8, the first Apollo moon launching.

P.S. The ET ship is a graphic depiction of what I saw that night.

Other Comments

I don't believe that UFOs exist. I know they exist. What I saw was unidentified but definitely extraterrestrial. I've been told that our military has things flying around up there that are fantastic but what I saw didn't belong to us.

Four members of SAUFOR, South Africa's UFO Resource were on an excursion on Saturday evening the 6th March 2004, at Noordhoek Beach, Cape Town, When, at approxiamately 21h15, a UFO was sighted coming toward land from across the ocean. The UFO was a single ball-like object, which made no sound as it moved across the sea.

It was about 20 000 feet up in the air and moved in a 'Falling-leaf'-like manner.

It hovered about 400m from the beach, at the same height, then moved of veering left toward Camps Bay.The object was clear to the naked eye, and was also viewed through binoculars.

The entire sighting lasted about 1.5 minutes.

a disk-like object showed up on one of my photos taken of the mountain scenery.

Comments about the image(s): "Hi from California. I want to share with you a couple photos that I took on a trip to Ridgecrest, CA back on Jan. 1. This is a town next to the China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station and at the northern edge of the Mojave Desert. I admittedly went there in hopes of seeing UFO's, as this part of the Mojave Desert is noted for UFO activity. The photos that I took were NOT of the objects in the sky (which I did not see at the time), but just of the mountain scenery. I obviously captured an airborn object on the photo of Red Mountain; and there is something in the other photo, as well, although it is very unclear because of the whitish cloud (?) around it. These are genuine photos, and you're welcome to the negatives if you like. Perhaps you can make out what the disk-like object is, but it seems wingless to me, and not a blimp."

Full Description & Details

I am sending a photos of objects that I did not actually see, but caught on film. The one daylight disk(?) was taken about 11:00 am heading north toward Ridgecrest, CA. The other photo was taken early the next morning, facing the Scodie Mountains west of Ridgecrest. The photo of Red Mountain is certainly the more convincing of the two, since an object can be seen rather clearly upon enlargement. A friend of mine took a photo of the Scodie Mountains at the same time as me, and he also captured a blurry white object on film. Obviously there is no clear image seen in this white blur, but something must have made it.

Witness Background

I have a Ph.D. in music and work at a college bookstore.

Other Comments

I am definitely interested in UFO's and am looking for the truth about them. Obviously, this is not an easy task. I am suspicious that the Navy has close ties to UFO's (as I have read), so thought I would look around the China Lake Naval Weapons Station, which, strangely, is located FAR from the ocean and adjacent to the Mojave Desert. I was surprised that I captured something on film in that region, as I did not see anything while searching intentionally.

MY FRIEND AND I HAD JUST FINISHED OUR LAST 'O' LEVEL EXAMS FOR THE YEAR. WE LEFT SCHOOL AND WERE ON OUR WAY TO HIS HOUSE ONLY FIVE MINUTES FROM THE SCHOOL IN A SUBURB CALLED EMERALD HILL. AS WE TURNED INTO HIS STREET, WE SAW ALL THESE PEOPLE LINING THE STREET ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM. WE IMMEDIATELY SAW WHY AS THIS HUGE ORANGE BALL HOVERED ABOVE THE TREE LINE STRAIGHT IN FRONT OF US. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS AND WE DIDN'T HEAR ANY NOISE, BUT WE RACED DOWN TO THE END OF THE STREET AND IT DISSAPPEARED BEHIND THE TREES. WE TURNED AROUND AND CAME BACK UP LOOKING BEHIND US AND IT APPEARED FROM BEHIND THE TREES ONCE AGAIN. I ESTIMATE THE DISTANCE TO BE AROUND 400 OR 500 METERS AWAY. WE QUICKLY TURNED AROUND AGAIN AND RACED DOWN TO THE END OF THE STREET AGAIN WHEN AGAIN IT DISAPPEARED BEHIND THE TREES. IT NEVER CAME BACK UP, BUT IT WAS AN EXPERIENCE TO CONSIDER. THERE WERE MANY WITNESSES, PROBABLY 20 OR 30 AND MY CLOSE FRIEND DAVID AND MYSELF.

THIS IS A TRUE AND HONEST ACCOUNT OF WHAT HAPPENED THAT DAY. AROUND THAT TIME THERE WAS ALSO A BIT OF TALK ABOUT UFO SIGHTINGS, BE IT A HOAX OR NOT, BUT TO ME IT IS STILL IDENTIFIED. I WAS 16 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME.

Other Comments

There are without doubt UFO's flying around us. Recently there was a sighting (Jan. 2004) near Melbourne, Australia, and I had a close look at the photograph in question. I don't believe there is any question that the person who took the photograph would have falsified the report. After studying the photo, I estimated that the UFO in the photo would have travelled around 1.5 meters during the exposure. It was a bright day and if the shutter speed of the camera was 1/500sec., then a quick calculation reveals the UFO was travelling at Approx. 750 meters per second, or a modest 2700 kms an hour. Does this sound unreasonable? It would be interesting to find out, maybe from someone at NASA, at what speed, given its approximate size, does an object become invisible? Would this speed of 750 meters per second make an object invisible? Yes, I think so !!

My advice is this. If you are outdoors taking photos, use as fast a shutter speed as possible. You may be surprised to see UFO's flying all around us and we don't even know it because we cannot see them. The photographer of this UFO didn't see anything at all until he downloaded the photo onto his computer?? You decide for yourself.....

My best guess is that I was about 7 years old when this happened, maybe younger. I remember having on short sleeves, and the street was still wet in places from a recent rain, late afternoon. We lived on a cul-de-sac in a neighborhood full of young families with children. My best friend, another friend of ours, and I were crossing the street from my house to go over to my best friend's house to play. When we got to the middle of the wet street, I looked up and saw something very strange. Hanging there, just ahead and above me to my right, in the overcast sky, was a big, round, silver/metal orb. Even more strange, there were yellow/white glowing symbols, almost letter-like, that were rotating around the middle of the sphere. It seemed very close by, right around the treetop level of the tallest trees in our neighborhood, much closer than anything I had ever seen in the sky. It seemed to be bigger than a car, but a lot smaller than a house. Stunned, I called to my friends who who had kept on walking. Oddly, they seemed not to recognize anything strange, nor did they even look up to where I was pointing, and they continued on across the street. I was so curious and stayed right there in the middle of the street to see if I could "read" what the symbols said, and if I could figure out what the metal ball was. My only frame of reference for anything like a message in the sky were blimps with bulb-flashing messages on the passenger car area, or planes that trailed a banner behind them. I have always loved reading, letters, communication, and language, so I was eager to solve what I thought was a puzzle. Try as I might, none of the symbols resembled any letters that I knew (there certainly weren't any "spaces" between any supposed "words"), and I remember thinking this must be another language that doesn't use the same letters. I had never seen anything in the sky shaped and looking like this orb ever before, and I remember wondering why is this new invention advertising something right over our street??? It seemed like I stood there only a few minutes, and then I found myself continuing on across the street to my best friend's house. Once inside, my friends annoyingly asked, "Where were you?" I told them excitedly about what I had seen (including both of our moms), but I was brushed off by everyone. Every so often after that, when I headed across to my best friend's house, I would stop in the center of the street, and look up to see if the metal orb had come back. I never saw it again.

Other Comments

I have never forgotten my own strange sighting. Over recent years, with the availability of the internet, I have looked to see if anyone has seen something like I reported here. So far, I haven't found any mention like mine with the same details in the ufo cateogory during my internet searches, so perhaps what I saw is identifiable, and someone knows what it is!

My family and I were returning from visiting relatives in NYC. My mother and brothers were asleep. It was late and I was up thinking staring out the window, while my father was driving. I looked away and then looked back out outside and up in the sky I saw the craft. I was calm even though it's creepy thinking about it now. I could'nt take my eyes off it, I was frozen but calm. My father was still driving and the craft was still following us. I'm not sure why but I looked away for a second or so and when I looked again ....... it vanished. I never told anyone until I saw a story on Unsolved Mystries and the story of this craft was featured. It was incrediable.

I observed a huge UFO in 1966. It was gray-silver metallic...disk shape with dome top. Had windows (portholes as I call them). I could see the turning of the bottom of it going in one direction as the top rotated the other direction. It had rainbow colored lights. I did not see any beings. This UFO hovered over a pond. When it got ready to go, it went up slow as not to harm anything. As it got a little ways up, it shot off into space(heaven) in the twinkling of an eye, it was gone. It was an awesome sight...
