- Georgia - Finely Polished Silver Disc
-
-
- FLOWERY BRANCH - On January 1, 2004, around 3:30 PM a
family was driving home and had turned off of I985 onto Spout Springs Road
(heading east) when the wife said "what is that?". The husband
states, "It appeared to be several hundred feet up and my first thought
was that it was a reflective foil-like balloon but the sun's reflection
from the object was very bright and the object's surface was like finely
polished silver. My wife, daughter age 5, and son almost 3 got real curious.
We got the impression that the object was 4 to 6 feet in diameter. We
passed the object by and turned around and came back and parked. From this
vantage point we could clearly see the object was moving slowing away from
us flip and roll sort of like it was tumbling but not consistently in any
given direction. From this movement we could make out that the object was
an almost flat disc. When it would roll to its thin side it looked black
and there was no reflection. When it would roll and reveal its flat side
it would appear to be silver and the sun's reflection was strong. It looked
like polished silver and in the middle of the object was a red circle.
My wife said it looked like a big silver button in the sky with a red dot
in the middle that did not reflect the sun. The object looked solid and
tumbling on its axis and changed direction from west to the northeast.
My daughter thought it was a floating CD (Compact Disc). We tried to follow
and my wife was looking at it as we were driving, she turned away and when
she turned back, "It's gone" she said. I looked all over the
sky and it was just gone. This was the most baffling part to us how quickly
it disappeared. Our eyes were off of it only for a few seconds. Thanks

- Arizona - Millennium New Years Eve UFO
-
- PHOENIX - On December 31, 1999, at 11:55 PM, my boyfriend
and I were outside his home preparing to celebrate the millennium. Many
neighbors were also outdoors, as we stood there waiting for the New Year
we had a lovely view of the night sky. It was perfectly clear and noticed
a very bright and large light traveling from south to north about as fast
as a helicopter flies appear high up in the sky. We both watched it approach,
as did some of the neighbors, as it was bigger and brighter than any we
had seen. As it got closer we realized it was extremely high but very big
-
-
-
- I kid you not..exactly at 12 AM on the turn of the century...this
object stopped dead in the sky over Sky Harbor Airport and remained motionless
for 15 seconds while we all stared and discussed what it could be. Then
right before our eyes it split into two separate parts which zoomed away
faster than anything I've ever seen! At that point, all thoughts of celebrating
the New Year were forgotten, and while we had been discussing the object
moments before, now there was only a stunned silence. Some people turned
and went into their homes without a word. We all went inside a little shaken.
I've always wondered how many others saw it, too.

- Canada - Police See Diamond UFO With Hundreds of Lights
-
-
- SICAMOUS, BRITISH COLUMBIA - On December 26, 2003, the
dispatcher for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police took a call from an excited
woman who saw unusual sights over a period of time. She felt she wasn't
being taken seriously but at 11:30 PM, an officer arrived and saw an object
and stood in amazement. He then drove towards the mountain where the object
was sitting to get a closer look.
-
-
-
- (HBCC UFO Note: So far, Brian Vike left two messages
with the Sicamous RCMP detachment to have the constable call me back. Excellent
video footage has been shot by the family where you can hear the children
in the background commenting on how quickly the object was moving all over
the sky. It moves rather quickly, zigzagging, etc.. In the footage it shows
the object moving erratically around the sky. The other members of her
family who stood watching this event unfold saw the very same thing with
the naked eye. There are more than one on different days and they are as
big as a house and covered in lights only a mile away. Though binoculars
it was the shape of an acorn or a diamond. It shot out a large red fireball,
then six bright orange lights appeared in the sky around it. Each of the
orange lights had another two white lights on them. These white lights
shot a beam of light towards the ground. A half an hour later four more
of the large acorn/diamond shaped objects showed up and sat either stationary
or moved around the sky with hundreds of lights on each of them.
-
- This story proved interesting enough that the television
station (CHBC TV out of Kelowna, British Columbia) sent a news crew to
interview the family and to get a copy of the footage. An RCMP officer
who was out in his patrol car ... noticed an object in the sky and was
instantly hit with a beam of light from it. After his shift was over
and upon his return to his detachment he informed his co-workers of what
he had seen. They thought he was seeing things. Now perhaps they have
a different interpretation of the event.

- Comox Valley, B.C.- On December 29, 2003, at 6:50 PM,
the witness reports seeing a glowing almost round shaped object coming
from the southwest, then just stopping, and then moving slowly to the north.
It flew slowly southwest, hovered, then zoomed off towards east at an
amazing speed. Later, I went outside and saw what could be the same object
that had returned to almost the same spot but much higher. I am 100% sure
of what I saw unless its some kind of manmade experimental object. Thanks

- ABBOTSFORD, BC - A formation of two Crop Circles was
found on December 15, by Laurel Leaman-Konrad and Jo Slingerland, near
a previous "trident" formation. One circle in cattle corn and
the other partly in cattle corn and partly in grass, about 30 - 46 meters
(100 - 150 feet) apart. Circle in both cattle corn and grass slightly was
larger and 55 feet in diameter. This was the seventeenth known report for
2003.

-
- ROSARIO -- The UFO was seen last Saturday, December 27,
2003, between 1 and 1:30 a.m. in the "El Patio de la Madera"
sector of the city. The luminous object traveled from west to east at a
speed similar to that of an airliner. Upon seeing the object, the eyewitness
ran for his camcorder but couldn't find a free tape, so he chose not to
waste any more time and used his digital camera.

-
- Rosario is less than 60 km from Victoria in the province
of Entre Rios, which is famous for sightings that involve lights. The person
who sent these images to the list states that a fisherman recognized the
object and said that it was identical to others that he had seen in the
past over the same area. Reports of animal mutilations continue to increase
from Argentina. Thanks to Scott Corrales, IHU. Special thanks to Christian

- Northern England- Flying Triangles and Shining Balls

-
- WEST CUMBRIA - Three UFOs were spotted during the festive
season over Workington and Whitehaven. Shining balls and spooky triangles
were seen in the night sky. Daley Rogers, of Hensingham, was left spellbound
by a red object hovering overhead as he returned from Workington last week.
He said: "We were coming home and we could see something in the sky
that dropped something white and bright that exploded. Then, it took off.
Daley, 23, admits that although he wasn't frightened by the ball-shaped
object, he's found it hard to get it out of his mind.
-
-
-
- At least six other people witnessed strange goings-on
in the West Cumbrian skies over Christmas. UFO expert Sharon Larkin, of
Broughton Cross, near Cockermouth, said: "We have had sightings of
a triangular-shaped craft and an orange ball over the Workington area."
The triangle was going over the Stainburn bypass at around 10.30 PM on
a Sunday at the end of December. Before that it was sitting over Clifton.
Then it headed off towards the Lake District. "The orange ball was
spotted over Broughton Moor last week." The area has a higher than
average of unexplained sightings. These include a "flying light"
over Whitehaven Golf Club. Extra-terrestrial visitors are attracted to
Cumbria because of the lakes, the peace and tranquility of the area and
the nuclear activity at Sellafield. "The night sky in Cumbria is particularly
alive. "You do get some sightings in the summer but from September
onwards, the skies are full of lights. With it getting darker earlier,
people are more aware of what is going on over their heads." Thanks

- England - UFOs Were Globular With Lots of Twinkling Lights
-
-
- HUDDERSFIELD - The Daily Examiner reports - Twinkling
Christmas stars may have been replaced by UFOs over Huddersfield. Shocked
pensioner Malcolm Stapp is adamant he saw a couple of flying saucers in
the night sky. Mr. Stapp, 74, of Salendine Nook, said: "It sounds
incredible I know, but I couldn't believe what I was seeing." He
was going to bed at 12.30 AM, on Monday when he saw a bright light in the
sky. He said: "It was stationary for at least 15 minutes and another
one appeared traveling north and going very fast - a lot faster than the
jets that fly over here. It was certainly not a helicopter or a plane."
He added: "Both UFOs were globular with lots of lights on them.and
I tried to look at the stationary one through binoculars, but it was just
a blur of intense lights." I watched it for 15 minutes and it was
still there when I went to bed. "I've never seen anything like it
before." http://ichuddersfield.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0100localnews/content_objectid=

- Netherlands - Fifty UFO Sighting Reports Last Month
-
- STEENWIJK - On December 10, 2003, a 20 year old student
and his family spotted some strange objects in the dark sky at around 6.10
PM. They spotted six strange objects in the dark clear sly with freezing
temperatures: 'I was driving across my block while I saw this bright light
up in the sky that moved a couple of kilometres in less than a second.
It actually scared me so I stopped my car, opened my window and stared
at the sky?
-
- Suddenly I spotted more of these very same objects surrounded
by a
- blue-white glow and softly but rapidly pulsating to red.
One object became very, very bright. Within every five seconds or so the
objects moved a couple of kilometres, however these maneuvers were very
- unpredictable.I quickly drove home and shouted to my
family that they had come out of the house to be able to see what I was
seeing. They saw the same objects. But when my mother saw one craft shoot
a couple of kilometres from it's position within less than a second, she
screamed and asked, "What it could be?" One craft actually flew
from a distant position right over us to a position behind us. At one
time two were pulsating extremely bright, and one flew off. I would like
to make it clear that these objects were nót planes. They moved
far too quickly for that.
-
-
- WERVERSHOOF - A 27-year old and some friends witnessed
on a cold clear New Year's Eve at twenty minutes after midnight a bright
ball of light. "Me and a couple of friends saw the ball of light arriving
from the Ijsselmeer (IJssel-lake is a shallow lake of approx. 1250 km).
It moved horizontally and extremely fast. This definitely couldn't be fireworks,
since they can't travel that far. The very bright ball of light was initially
blue-violet colored and changed in one go to red. I followed the object
until I couldn't see it anymore. and disappeared out of my sight after
some houses and trees, but i didn't have the impression that it decreased
in speed or height. What it exactly was, is a mystery for me, it was a
great experience." Thanks to Toine Trust, Home of the Dutch UFO Community

- Japan - UFO Shaped Like Three Diamonds

- TOKYO - Director Jun-ichi Kato, Organization of UFO Research
Japan (OUR-J) reports, "A very unusual flying object was seen over
the suburban area on December 14, 2003. Mrs. Miyayama dedicated OUR-J
member and spotter on Sunday, around 12:20 PM, she was checking out the
clear sky as usual from the balcony of her apartment. She saw an orangish
translucent object suddenly appear in the sky and looked it through her
binoculars to verify its shape and interestingly, found it was very unique
that looked like a fragment of abacus or three diamond shaped structures
that connected in line. One of three diamonds was shining metallic. The
direction of appearance is east and the altitude is between 65 - 70 degrees.
To share this exciting moment with her family, Mrs. Miyayama called out
to her husband and her sons those were at the living room at the time.
They all eye-witnessed this amazing object as well, said Mrs. Miyayama.
UFO hovered for about 10 minutes or so, and slowly descended and finally
disappeared. drawing by the witness Thanks to:

- South Australia - Orange Lights
-
- ADELAIDE SA - A former soldier Anthony age 45, was outside
having a smoke when he called his wife outside to observe a moving orange
light that was very large, coming from the north., on Sunday December 29,
2003, about 10:30 PM. The bright orange light was almost as big as the
moon and traveling northeast to southwest. They couldn't make out the shape
or hear any noise. It was not on a regular flight path but flew near the
Royal Australian Air Force Base. He thought it could be relatively close,
and thought for a moment it could have been a helicopter but for the color
of the light. It traveled steadily then made a turn at constant speed until
after 5 minutes it disappeared over the hills to the southwest. Thanks

- NSW NEWCASTLE - Trish reports, "I was standing out
the front of my home here in New Lambton with my 15 and12 year old children
on New Years Eve. With us were my neighbor couple with their 3 kids (7yrs,
14yrs and 16yrs). It was around 11.45 PM when we all saw two bright orange
lights, a little larger than a star, that were traveling southwest in a
straight line one behind the other about one hand width apart. Then the
one behind swung down under the front one and passed to go in front. They
hovered for about 10 seconds then started to fade and disappeared. This
took about 3 minutes Then about 10 minutes later they re-appeared in the
same fight pattern and maneuvers to bring in the New Year for 2004, then
hovering and fading. This happened 6 times. On the third time my daughter
and the man next door saw another orange light same size to the north along
the coastline. My son saw two other orange lights the same size under
the other lights but they went back to the west and disappeared behind
a tree. I have lived near William Town RAAF base for 10 yrs & I know
what jets, planes look & sound like..this was defiantly not an aircraft.
Comment: There have been more sightings of the orange UFOs reported
that same night. thanks to Diane Harrison, National Director of The Australian

- Feb. 8-14, 2004
-
- We are rapidly approaching our 13th Annual Winter Convention
on Feb 8 to 14th. Our steady growth over the years prompted our move last
year to a larger facility at the Flamingo Resort in Laughlin, Nevada. The
Flamingo has a new 20,000 square foot convention center, which will easily
seat 1200+ attendees. The 18 foot high ceilings and new sound system enable
us to present our speakers in the best convention setting available on
the banks of the Colorado River!
-
- The event is one week long, and
will host 25 speakers from around the world. (Our international representation
this year is fantastic. Over the years, this conference has developed a
family atmosphere, and for many it has become more of a reunion than a
conference. (Best of all, it is one of the most affordable conferences
in the world!) Speakers include:
- George Filer, Jim Marrs, Matthew Hurley, Joe McMoneagle,
Wynn Free, David Wilcock, Riley Martin, Adrian Dvir, Russell Callaghan
(U.K.) Rich Dolan, Haktan Akdogan (Turkey), Ed & Kris Sherwood, James
