- Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota Black Triangle Sighting
-
- Date: Summer of 1997
- Time: Evening
-
- Dear Brian: Since someone reported a 1993-4 sighting
I thought I should chime in with my Black Triangle sighting in the summer
of 1997, in Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota, a town 15 miles north of Stillwater
in the St. Croix River Valley bordering Wisconsin, about 50 miles northeast
of the Twin Cities.
-
- My sister and I happened to be watching the X-Files without
any big hoopla. The show ended she wandered over to the sliding door out
onto the deck and said, "See there are those lights that I've seen
before." She had told me about multi-colored spheres doing formations
unexplainable by conventional technology which she had seen in the river
valley a little north and also earlier in Taos, New Mexico. She was bored
and went inside.
-
- I kept on observing these "plasma spheres"
on the horizon to the east and spent maybe 10 minutes comparing them to
possible explanations so I could potentially rule out what I was observing.
Different colored lights were hovering, making 90 degree directional changes
both vertically and horizontally.
-
- Then I realized something was slowly heading right towards
me from the horizon, probably 10 miles away. I waited and a large, flat
black triangle slowly flew right over our yard, right above the tree-line.
I was not familiar with the black triangle sightings at this time but
my immediate reaction was that it must be some secret military craft.
-
- The object was so close I could have hit it with a rock
and it flew very slowly while only making a slight humming sound. I didn't
dare look away. There were lights on each its corners and the black triangle
slowly passed maybe 100 feet over the roof of our house and continued on
across the river valley.
-
- My parents use to operate the local legal (removed) for
the surrounding towns and one of their workers had brought in a binder
of clippings from the UFO flap in the area during the 1970s. There were
large round UFOs right in the paper and a cattleman had moved away because
of mutilation to his cattle on his land adjacent to a federal wildlife
reserve. Also that area is a military flight test area.
-
- My dad, also in summer 1997, saw a UFO -- he said it
was "bigger than the moon and had lights all around the center of
it." He couldn't figure out what it was so I told him that was a
U.F.O. and he refused to accept that term since he's a rationalist -- but
he was listening to Art Bell at the time as well.
-
- It wasn't until I came across other descriptions of Black
Triangle Sightings on Rense.com a few years ago that I realized I had experienced
the exact same phenomenon as many others. My book reading further verified
the extensive sightings elsewhere, i.e. Belgium. But not till now have
I reported the sighting, as far as I can remember, and I didn't see my
location marked on the map in the recent Black Triangle report.
-
- Thanks,
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Foxboro, Ontario Cloud Formation
-
- Date: August 31, 2004
- Time: 9:10 p.m.
-
- At 9:00 p.m. EST I went outside to let our house dogs
out. I decided since there were no mosquitoes evident to sit on the front
porch. It was a beautiful clear sky and the full moon hadn't come up yet.
I could see many stars above and since we do not live in the city, the
lights of the stars were clear. I could see the glow of the lights of the
city of Belleville to the south of us.
-
- At approx 9:10 p.m. I noticed a strange orangey object
on the Western horizon above the hill to the northwest of us. I called
my husband out to see this as this object was moving towards our house
and it was bigger than any plane I have seen. He came out and viewed the
object in the sky. Then went inside to get his binoculars. When he came
out and viewed the object with the binoculars he noticed its unusual shape.
"I determined that it was shaped like a snow angel with a pointed
head, that is it was an elongated object with four fan-like projections
at its sides.
-
- The pointed head had a blinking light. As it approached
its color changed to white." We then called our son out to view this
object in the sky. He confirmed the same shape that we had both observed.
It was moving from west to east and heading right over our house. All three
of us viewed this object coming towards the house and its shape and size.
It seemed to be a glowing cloud with a flashing light. The 'angel' shape
was glowing and you could see stars through it. However at the 'pointed'
end you could not see stars through it.
-
- We also noted 5-6 aircraft all heading the same direction
around the object. Some did appear to be circling the object. The object
was considerably larger than any of these planes. Approximately 9:15 p.m.-9:20
p.m., the objects light stopped blinking. But, the cloud 'angel' continued
to move towards our house (easterly). At this point (approx 9:25 p.m.)
Gordon went back
- into the house. My son and I stayed out to watch this
object. It was now almost directly over the house. I had the binoculars
and watched as a bright circular orangey-yellow object flew out of the
cloud. This object was about the size of 1/4 of the full moon.
-
- The object headed directly north at a much faster speed
than the cloud had been moving. The object appeared to be about
- 1/8 the size of the full moon when it reached the stars
that make up the Big Dipper. It reached that position in the sky in about
30 seconds. The object then turned 90 degrees and headed back west. It
disappeared moments later. The cloud disappeared within 5 minutes of the
object leaving it. All planes then seemed to have left the vicinity when
we looked for them again after the object disappeared. All the ones we
had observed around this object that is. It should be noted here that at
no time did we hear any noise from this object. We could hear and see the
planes, but, not this other object in the
- sky. Note: It was moving laterally to its length across
the sky.
-
- Additional Information:
-
- Hello Brian,
-
- We are going to check out the further info indicated
in your email today and tonight and will send a 2nd email regarding same
before the end of the weekend.
-
- We are going to provide the report we did for NUFORC
below as well. But, we wanted to clarify a few items regarding same.
The report will appear with ___ above and below it.
-
- Where we live in Foxboro, Ontario we are about 1.25 hours
driving time - 125km or so from the St. Lawrence Seaway on the north end
of Lake Ontario. We live about 7 or so miles north of the city of Belleville
(13 km). All projected flight paths for this rocket launch do not indicate
that it went over eastern Ontario. If you look on a map you will see where
we are.
-
- The cloud formation did have a blinking light on it -
as all the reports said. We have drawn pictures of the formation and also
of the object that came out of this formation, heading north and then did
a 90 degree turn west before disappearing. We found a picture of this
object online recently. It was EXACTLY what we saw come out of the cloud
that was over our house at the time. We can provide this picture we found
upon request, we kept a copy for our records.
-
- The cloud being explained as the rocket expelling fuel
we can readily accept. But, we do not feel what we saw a 'yellow/orange
orb shaped object' coming out of the cloud could have been the satellite
or explained as part of the rocket either. The 'orb' pulled some of the
cloud formation with it and went north, then turned west 90 degrees almost
adjacent to one of the stars in the Big Dipper. It was considerably larger
than the star it passed in the sky! I can almost compare it to the size
of the harvest moon at some points during the fall. Except the moon wasn't
up yet and rises to the east of our house. About 45 minutes after the
object disappeared the moon did rise and its color was very similar to
the orb, but, it was even bigger than the orb we saw that night.
-
- The 'cloud' came in from the west over a low rise of
a hill to the north west of our home. It came directly east and came over
the southeastern edge of our house as we watched it. The flashing lighted
end was pointed directly south. The 'object' seemed to come from the southern
end of the cloud and came directly out of the middle of it heading north.
It flew at a fast rate of speed to the north and turned west and was gone
in under 1 minute from leaving the cloud! This was considerably faster
than any of the planes we saw overhead at the same time.
-
- Below link are the witnesses drawings they made of what
they saw and they also gave location in the sky.

- Mr. Brian Vike, Director HBCC UFO Research Home
-
- Dear Mr. Vike,
-
- My guess is that, like NUFORC, you have received numerous
reports of a bright cloud seen over Eastern North America on 2004 Sep 01
at about 01 UTC (Aug 31 at 21 h EDT).
-
- It was related to the launch of NROL-1 from Cape Canaveral,
on an Atlas 2AS rocket, a couple of hours earlier.
-
- Spaceflight Now has the ground track, which crossed North
America.
-
- http://www.spaceflightnow.com/atlas/ac167/040824track.html
-
- The cloud visible over North America was the result of
the Centaur's venting of excess propellant.
-
- The strobing light effect reported by some observers
was caused by the tumbling of the Centaur. Observers who had telescopes
observed both the Centaur, and the satellite, which was still nearby, in
a similar orbit.
-
- Centaur propellant dumps have been seen many times over
the years, most often by satellite observers and astronomers, but sometimes
by the general public.
-
- Last evening's propellant dump was particularly prominent,
because it occurred at a relatively low altitude, below about 10,000 km.
Most commonly they occur at about 40,000 km, and even then they are visible
to the unaided eye, but not as long, and not quite as spectacular.
-
- I posted my observation report to SeeSat-L:

-
- As have several other observers:

-
- HBCC UFO Research would like to extend my many thanks
to the witnesses for there report and to Ted Molczan, Admin, SeeSat-L for
providing all the excellent information about this sighting. Also I am
looking into seeing if there might have been something else witnessed around
the area.

- Elgin, New Brunswick Lights Over Local Mountain
-
- Date: September 8, 2004
- Time: Approx: 1:30 a.m.
-
- Number of witnesses: 1
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: ?
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: I was looking out
my large 2nd story bedroom window watching the stars when I saw several
very slow moving mainly red and an occasional white flashing light on
some indiscernibly shaped object, silent, low flying..just above the tree
tops of the mountain just outside my window. It moved along the tree line
for approximately two minutes then disappeared on the other side of the
mountain, reappeared flew the tree line again and repeated the pattern
of flight for maybe 4 or 5 minutes. Flying north west and disappeared over
mountain.The lights were flashing in a way that I first thought of some
sort of rescue mission. In the 4 or 5 minutes it only flew over about 1/3
of the mountain. I later saw what I knew to be airplanes flying in a similar
direction but much higher, I could hear them and the lights didn't look
anything like what I had just witnessed earlier.
-
- So who knows...I've never seen anything like it and for
the first time I'm visiting a UFO sighting web site.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Kaufman County Texas Unusual Bizarre Object
-
- Date: September 11, 2004
- Time: 8:00 p.m.
-
- Hi Brian
-
- I was just getting ready to come in tonight when I saw
this light above in the tree. I had my camera in my pocket, on and ready,
and snapped one picture of it. Have no idea what it is, didn't hear any
sound from it and didn't see it move. When I started to take another, it
was just gone. It was about 8:00 p.m., sky was clear and I didn't see any
other aircraft in the vicinity, no wind. Thought you would like to see
it. Later my friend
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report and pictures.

- Phoenix, Arizona Barbell Object Returns
-
- Date: September 11, 2004
- Time: 11:42 a.m.
-
- Hi Brian,
-
- I was out in the back yard saturday 9-11-04 at 11:42
a.m. When I looked up to see the "barbell" UFO again. This time
it looked like it was morphing from cylinder to barbell to triangle shaped.
-
- I was able to video tape it for about 7 min. This time
it was moving from north to south in a clear blue sky. The wind was blowing
from east to west. There was a tree branch blowing in the wind that was
geting it the way, but I was still able to get some good video of this
thing.
-
- It moved out of site as the tree was geting in the way.
I was able to get it on the 5x lens with about 70x power, (no digital)
- What is going on over phoenix? Someone let me know if
they saw this thing too. This thing was weird.
-
- Thanks Brian,

- Denver, Colorado Lights Moving On Of Cloud
-
- Date: September, week of 6th to 11th, 2004
- Time: 9:00 p.m.
-
- Other sightings the last few nights as I walk in the
evening as is my habit: Small cloud that I immediately thought was a "cloud
ship" as some call them, under a larger "cloud ship." Probably
about 9 PM that night maybe a week ago. A star like object, flashing red,
blue, and white moved out of the lower cloud and straight up into the larger
cloud. After several minutes 3 similar lights left the large cloud, one
at a time and proceeded in a south west direction, going I suppose a moderate
speed. Then the 2 clouds evaporated very quickly over a few minutes.
-
- About 3 nights ago, saw red and green flashing object
around 10:30 PM that moved very slowly in the North, much larger than a
star, about 1/4 inch in size. I watch it for several minutes, and then
it just poof, went out.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Caledon, Ontario Object And Aura Around It
-
- Date: September 11, 2004
- Time: 9:30 p.m.
-
- I was at my friends a couple of km.'s south of my home
last night. >From their backyard you could see the west sky quite well,
As I stood looking in the sky, I looked out of curiosity to the east sky
to see if there was any action going on in that part of the sky, but not
there.
-
- Any ways as we sat down at the fire around 9:30 pm. I
looked to the west sky and there it was, I pointed it out to a couple of
people and they watched as it got brighter and gave off some type of aura
around it. It was zig zagging and doing circular movements, it was above
a tree in the distance and we watched it drop below the tree line within
10 min. Even my friends are starting to believe when they see things like
this going on. Some them made comments that it could be a starlight or
airplane, But of course I know what it was and there's still people out
there that have a hard time believing. (FEAR) maybe.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

-
- Denver, Colorado Huge Perfect Saucer
-
- Date: September 11, 2004
- Time: 7:30 p.m.
-
- About 7:30 PM last night (Sat.) I was leaving the store
and heading west out of the parking lot. There was a huge perfect saucer,
brilliantly lit (kind of light golden color) in the western sky, about
15 degrees above the horizon. It was beginning to get dusky and the sun
has set and small clouds in the area were dark gray in color. This saucer
is several miles away, but I can't see the mountains at this vantage point,
so I am unsure of distance. It was about 2 inches in length, the height
about 1/2 inch. Absolutely perfect shape, could not be a cloud. It drifted
very slowly south. I watched it as I could while driving north, until the
trees obscured it. I looked for it after I reached the area I live in and
could drive more safely to look for it, but I could not find it again,
I think the trees, etc., blocked it. The traffic was too heavy to stay
in, and I did not think to pull off where I could watch in safety. But
this was fun. No flashing lights, etc., just beautiful bright slightly
golden glow.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Hi Brian
-
- I was planning on sending this one also,but I was trying
to enhance it a little so you can see it better.I didn't do a real good
job, but it's some better.Anyway it was about 7:30 p.m. on 09-11-04 when
I saw this small plane coming toward me starting to turn left.I took a
couple pics of it,the first picture just had the plane in it.The second
one appears to have a saucer above it
- to the right.I'm sending both pics to you with the enhanced
one also to see what you think.Same details as the first one I sent except
30 minutes earlier. Check out the the top right side of the picture also,
looks like a orb too.
