The Vike Factor

Notice To The Vike Factor Visitors (From Brian Vike)

2012-01-29T15:53:00.001-08:00

I am going to be out of town for well over a week, so there won’t be any new posting of sighting reports until I come back home.

There will be people here at home, it is just myself who will be away.

Thank you, and please keep sending in the sighting reports as I will reply when I arrive back home.

I should add, if you have had a Meteor/Fireball sighting, please file a detailed report on this as well. This information is helping me and many others as well.

I would like to extend my many thanks to everyone who has filed a sighting report to me here in the month of January. It has been the busiest month ever for myself.

There have been 445 sightings that have been posted to the Vike Factor in January alone. This is a new record. :)

Also, I did a rough count for the reports I have not posted as of yet, and there is approximately another 90 reports that have not been posted, that I will get to when I arrive back home.

I would like to also thank the two fellows who have been posting most of the material to the blog, couldn’t do any of this without them.

Take care

V Or Triangular Shaped UFO Flying Over Santa Cruz California

2012-01-28T16:24:00.001-08:00

Date: 2008

Time: 9:28 p.m.

I live in Santa Cruz CA. and have a new hobby watching and tracking satellites and I just saw a large V shape craft flying overhead for the third time within a month. Tonight at 9:28 p.m. PST, I saw it again, straight above me, gliding from south to north.

No lights at all, large V or triangle shape, lighter colored than the night sky.

The other times it flew from east to west, then next was southeast to northwest. It seemed to fly fairly slow, slower than satellites or airplanes, and no lights at all every time.

The only reason I can see it is because it is lighter than the night sky. Any input. CT Santa Cruz, California.

Two UFOs Hovering About 3 Meters Off The Ground At Barton Stacey Hampshire England UK

2012-01-28T16:08:00.001-08:00

Date: January 3, 2012

Time: 6:15 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of Objects: 2

Shape of Objects: Two hovering vehicles.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Two hovering craft in a farmers field, one with two central white lights and two central red lights situated opposite the All Saints Barton Stacey Church in this field.

I was walking up the hill to my house and these two crafts were hovering about 30 meters away from me and hovering about 3 meters off the ground.

It looked like they were communicating with each other. These crafts then accelerated away from me to opposite sides of this very long field in an instant and then changed direction again, in what appeared to be observing the parameters of this field by moving quickly across the field faster than any conventional known craft!

2 Bright Spherical Orange Lights Over Sri Lanka Mount Lavinia

2012-01-28T15:58:00.001-08:00

Date: January 28, 2012

Time: 10:30 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 4

Number of Objects: 7

Shape of Objects: Spherical.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Hi, at 10:30 p.m. today, 28th January 2012. I noticed 2 bright orange lights spherical in shape slightly blinking flying across the southwestern skyline.

I quickly called my fiancé out to the balcony and as she came, 2 more came from the same direction and flew along the direction of the earlier 2 and disappeared with the other 2.

We called my brother-in-law and my mother-in-law as well. These 4 were joined by three others. Going along the same line and disappearing. This event would have lasted about 5 minutes.

There was no noise coming from them. They all blinked slightly and disappeared as if they were going up into space. It was bizarre and we are still trying to figure out what it was.

Hovering Orange Lights Observed From Eastbound On 595 South Florida

2012-01-28T09:33:00.001-08:00

Date: January 27, 2012

Time: Approx: 7:30 p.m.

Hello there, our family was heading eastbound on 595 last night around 7:30 p.m. and we too saw the strange lights hovering on the north side of the highway. I think many people were wondering what they were because traffic was slowing down on our lane.

You are correct. The lights were not blinking and the objects were stationary. We were in awe at what we were looking at. If you have any news as to what it might have been, please let us know! Thanks.

Bright Orange Object Lights Up The Clouds Over Brisbane (QLD) Australia

2012-01-28T09:10:00.000-08:00

Date: January 28, 2012

Time: 10:00 p.m. - 10:02 p.m

My wife and I just saw an orange light (silently) fly in a due east to west direction over our house on the south side of Brisbane (QLD), Australia. It was on steady course, no noise, faster than a chopper, but slower than a plane. Altitude would only be 1000 feet at most.

Size would be (from our point of view) about the size of a search light. Sighting occurred at 10:00 p.m. - 10:02 p.m. 28th January 2012.

It lit up the clouds above it (it's currently raining here) but it never shifted course and remained below the clouds for the full 2 minutes we saw it.

Triangular Shaped UFO With Three Prongs Seen Over University Place Washington

2012-01-27T22:18:00.001-08:00

Date: January 21, 2012

Time: 9:10 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of Objects: 8

Shape of Objects: Triangle with 3 prongs at bottom.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Lights came out of the SW heading N over the Puget Sound. Two at a time spaced evenly each time. The shape was triangular with 3 distinct prongs at the bottom.

Very red in color, almost as if surrounded by fire or an incredibly bright red light.

Appeared as if they were taking off from somewhere because of the arch pattern they were flying. Would make the arch, then go straight up and out of sight. Always in the same spot. Except 2 of them.

They hovered a few seconds at the place where the others seemed to depart, then at what appeared to be an adjusted speed headed over towards the Narrows Bridge.

At times it looked as if they were hovering in place over the bridge or Gig Harbor. Never have I seen anything like this before. The sight and wonder of it all was riveting!

Teal Blue Orange Red Yellow Meteor With Long White Tail Streaks Across The Sky Over New Jersey

2012-01-27T21:55:00.001-08:00

Date: August 3, 2008

Time: 10:00 p.m.

I saw a meteor at 10:00 p.m. August 3, 2008. New Jersey. I happened to be looking out my second story window facing south and I saw it streak out of the eastern sky. I saw a long white trail behind it. The duration was approximately 3 or 4 seconds.

Colors were teal-blue, orange-red, yellow and white. The meteor was thicker on the leading edge. It came down at about 45 degree angle and disintegrated much like fireworks do.

At first I thought that's what this was, but it was too big and I heard no sound except a shimmery whistling, plus this brilliant streak came from the wrong angle. Very cool thing to witness.

Orange Colored Lights Spotted Over Oxenden Square Herne Bay Kent UK

2012-01-27T21:47:00.001-08:00

Date: July 2011

Time: 9:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 2 clearly and many in background.

Shape of Objects: Orange spheres pulsating.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Watched a host of orange lights in sky diagonally move across from my home in the distance moving at speed with no noise in zig zag formation almost.

Then two orange coloured lights hovered opposite my second story window within fifty foot on the roof line of my neighbors roof in Oxenden Street for about 10 minutes.

My 10 year old daughter was freaked out and kept telling me to close the window and come away as no way were they lanterns, helicopters or planes.

I was fascinated and excited at what was happened and emailed Howard Hughes the unexplained website the next day to report this.

The lights then moved at speed towards the sea and did not return. I am convinced these were UFOs.

It disappeared to the North into the tree line.

Huge Red Green Sphere Observed By Two Witnesses Over Ayrshire Scotland

Date: January 27, 2012

Time: 2:32 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: Mass of orbs/objects.

Shape of Objects: Red and blue orbs rotating triangular movement.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: At around 2:30 a.m. I woke up to go to bathroom. Out my bedroom window I noticed a clear bright sky and what looked like a huge plane. I looked more closely before I went and retrieved my binoculars from down stairs.

After around taking in what I was seeing, I woke my girlfriend up to make sure we were both seeing the same thing. She just stared at the sky for 5 minutes or more. We both saw a kind of huge red and green sphere or orb rotating in a triangular motion.

It was really clear, but looked so far away. I couldn’t understand what I was seeing, was possible. I watched it for another hour and half before cloudy sky’s hampered my view. It changed shape into a circle with all sorts of bright lights bursting out of the objects I was seeing.

Also at one point, the lights seemed to light up the sky, flashing in the upper skyline with different coloured lightning, but much softer and without the thunder noise. The sky was clear, bright and the object was clear to see with my naked eye and much more clearer with my binoculars.

Circular Object Shoots Upward Faster Than A Jet Fighter Over Ontario Oregon

2012-01-27T20:21:00.001-08:00

Date: January 27, 2012

Time: 8:01 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Circular.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: My wife and I were smoking a cigarette and I was talking to her. She said "What is that?" I turned around to see what looked like a shooting star.

However it was quite many times larger than a shooting star (the size difference between a dime and a Kennedy half-dollar) and it was "shooting" upwards instead of across the sky or downward as most shooting stars do.

Another observance I made was that this "shooting star" had no tail. There was just a ball of light shooting upwards many times faster than any fighter jet flies.

After about 10 seconds of the ball shooting upwards, it gave off what seemed like a bit of light dust for 2 seconds and then was completely gone. Just disappeared.

It didn't fade away it just was gone. If you have any information on this sighting or any information that comes your way, please contact me as I am very curious and am a frequent sky observer.

Orange Lights In The Night Sky Over Laezonia Pretoria South Africa

2012-01-27T19:43:00.001-08:00

Date: January 1, 2012

Time: 12”02 a.m.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I am from Laezonia, it falls under Pretoria. A minute or two after New Year we saw orange lights in the sky, the one was by it self and the other had three lights in the shape of a triangle, the triangle just stood still for a while and then slowly moved away and disappeared while the single light moved away at a constant speed and disappeared.

It was very bizarre and strange.

I understand that many people seem to think these are Chinese lanterns, but it is impossible as those lanterns are always moving and this triangle was steadily hovering for a long time.

We are on a plot and were having a New Years party and all went outside to see the fireworks at midnight, to our dismay there were only a few on the other side to where we sighted these lights.

They were also not high up in the sky, we could see the lights very clearly and low down.

I have several witnesses who watched this with me.

If you by any chance have any information on this, I would appreciate if you let me know. Regards.

Date: January 27, 2012

Time: 10:14 p.m.

Hackensack NJ and the time is 10:14 p.m. Four lights in a kind of parabolic movement which converge and then separate. I'm not a nut and I just found your blog because I was looking to see if someone was talking about it. I have never seen something like this. It is not Northern Lights. They are in a distinct pattern and it's still there.

I have been watching it for five minutes and I am near Teterboro Airport, could that be an explanation?

I live in high rise on the 10th floor. I will be watching news tomorrow to see what others saw.

Serviceman Observes UFOs Over Moody Air Force Base Valdosta Georgia And In The North Atlantic

2012-01-27T14:24:00.000-08:00

I was stationed at Moody Air Force base in Valdosta, Georgia in the early 70’s. My job was training student pilots in the flight simulators I was assigned to. I was making a milk run for my family one evening in 1973, driving from our house to the base convenience store.

The sky was clear and if you know anything about South Georgia you know that the lay of the land is very flat. I observed an extremely fast moving light about 30 degrees above the horizon moving roughly south to north from the air base. I slowed down to watch what I now believe to be a UFO moving across the sky at an incredible rate of speed.

I observed the object abruptly change direction by what I would estimate to be 30 to 40 degrees to the east. Within just a few seconds the object was no longer in sight. About 30 to 60 seconds later I saw two chase planes leaving the air base in what appeared to be an attempt to intercept the UFO.

The planes used to chase the object are supersonic jet training planes. What I observed was an object that was moving at what I would estimate to be at least five times faster than the jets in pursuit. Result – not even a contest. UFO was gone!

After separating from the Air Force in 1978 I worked a few odd jobs in the electronics field. I acquired a job with the Naval Oceanographic office in 1981. I was an electronic technician assigned to an oceanographic research ship that surveyed the North Atlantic.

One cloudless October evening, about 2 hours before sunset while in the North Atlantic above the Arctic Circle, I decided to take a short break while there was a lull in the ship’s activities. I walked out to the fantail of the ship and sat with my feet hanging off of the starboard side of the ship.

The water was amazingly calm and clear. About a quarter mile from the side of the ship I observed the water glowing from below which as you might imagine immediately caught my attention. Imagine an extremely bright spotlight shining up through crystal clear ocean water from a depth that was in the neighborhood of 8-10 thousand feet deep.

Within what I estimate to be about 2-3 seconds, a sphere of white light exited the water. I would estimate the size of the object to be the size of a beach ball. As if that in itself was not amazing enough the object did not disturb the water at all upon exiting and was totally silent.

The object left the water and ascended vertically at an unbelievable rate of speed. I would estimate the time from exiting the water to moment the object disappeared from view into the clear evening sky to be less than 3 seconds.

Ball Of Light Seen Over Surrey British Columbia

2012-01-27T14:00:00.000-08:00

Date: January 26, 2012

Time: Evening.

I just wanted to report what might have been a 2nd UFO sighting in Surrey, British Columbia. I'm not sure if your from there or who we can report the sighting to here closer to us if your not. I do prefer we are to remain anonymous.

But we have seen the same exact ball of light twice appearing in the same spot now within a week in Jan 2012 and we are curious if anyone else have seen the same ball of light as we have?

It appeared to us twice in the formed shape of a very 'bright' almost like a star ball hovering just below the clouds and very large seen in Surrey, and appearing to have hovered for nearly an hour and suddenly moving in the direction of New Westminster, B.C.

It was not a plane or a helicopter for a helicopter did pass right over it in the direction of the Vancouver area which was the same direction the UFO eventually went. It was a solid physical object that looked very much like a star, but it was not likely a fallen star and was very low to earth just observing.

We managed to take a couple pictures of it from a cell phone. I did take a recording of it as well from my own phone, but when we went to check on the recording moments later, they were no where to be found throughout any files on my phone and I know I did not delete them.

The 1st sighting we had saw this was January 22nd 2012 in the later evening. I did check YouTube to see if anyone else had recorded it as well, or might have seen it out of curiosity hoping we couldn't have been the only people that had seen this obvious sighting hovering above Surrey BC these two times so far.

The last one we had just witnessed the same sighting last night appearing in the same exact area, this was on January 26th 2012 also around the same time in the later evening.

Strange Green Light Makes Unusual Maneuvers In The Sky Over Interstate 80 Tahoe Nevada

2012-01-27T10:28:00.001-08:00

Date: January 25, 2012

Time: Evening.

Hello, my two friends and I were driving east on 80 up to Tahoe tonight and saw a green light moving in the air in a flight pattern we had never seen. Up, down and diagonal. There was no tail, no flashing lights.

It was not big enough to be a helicopter, or plane and couldn't have been with the way it was moving.

Maybe a radio controlled something? To big to be a laser or pointer of some sort. I've never seen a UFO, or never reported anything. When I saw it, I brought it to the attention of driver and front passenger.

All of us saw the same thing. No drinking or drugs. Regards.

White Blue Object Burns Out In The Sky Over West Houston Texas

2012-01-27T10:13:00.001-08:00

Date: January 26, 2012

Time: 5:45 p.m.

Mr. Vike, at approximately 5:45 p.m. this evening (1/26/12) I saw what looked to be a meteor/shooting star fall to the northern direction of me. I was surprised how bright it was (seemed white/light blue to me), and was one of the larger ones I have seen.

It looked as if it burned out before it reached the top of my "visibility line". It was falling at probably a 20-30 degree angle. I am in the Memorial area of West Houston. I just spotted another (much smaller in size) at approximately 1:10 a.m. It was in the same general area of the sky, but burned out much more quickly this time.

It looked as if it was much further away as well. You are the only person on the web I found so far that posted a "sighting" similar to what I saw. Hope this helps and feel free to email with any questions or information.

Huge Amber Colored Ball Of Light Over Arabian Sea United Arab Emirates

2012-01-27T10:05:00.001-08:00

Date: January 27, 2012

Time: Between 00:30 to 00:40

Hi, I read you post at http://the-v-factor-paranormal.blogspot.com/ (in fact I was searching for the same). I'm from UAE (GMT +4:00). Yesterday night (27th January, between 00:30 to 00:40) we saw exactly the same which you described in your post.

Big amber color ball, at least 10 times bigger than a star we see, moving in the sky. We saw it exactly above the Arabian sea. I was driving, it was feeling like someone was flying a kite with flaming material (we use to see in our native place in India).

It was not sky-high, and was impossible for someone to fly a kite in the middle of the sea (in 12 c). It was quite, fascinating! We saw it for maximum of 1 minutes. When I got down to see it properly and take a picture, it was disappeared. We really don't know how and when it disappeared.

We are damn sure it was something that we've never seen before. It was not an aeroplane. We drove many kilometers after that to find it, but we could not find it.

Amber Colored Object/Light Filmed Over Red Deer Alberta

2012-01-26T22:12:00.000-08:00

Date: January 25, 2012

Time: Between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

It was Wednesday, January 25th between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. My sister and I were going to meet some friends for wings. I live in the Lancaster area and I looked to the southwest and noticed the crescent moon.

Above that I noticed an amber ball of light that looked sky high, not space high.

It moved smoothly, horizontally and to the east. It was absolutely silent and graceful. As you can see the whole thing took like 2 minutes.

I just want to know what it was.

To view the video footage: (some language in the film, maybe not great for little ones)

This is what I saw. It looked amber in color. Completely silent. What is it?

Strange Orange Ball Of Light Rose Up Into The Sky Over Northern California

2012-01-26T13:48:00.001-08:00

Date: Around 1988

Time: Evening.

My twin brother and I both saw a similar orange ball of light beyond our back yard fence in Northern California. Must have been around 1988. Couldn't tell if it was small and just beyond our fence, or huge and miles away. At any rate it looked like a spherical, sharply demarcated ball of fire.

It rose slowly into the air and vanished. It did not appear to fly away. My brother and I could not believe what we saw and strangely did not speak much of it at the time. However in the years gone by we have discussed it and both remember it like it was yesterday.

Silent Manta Ray UFO Spotted Over Meridian Idaho

2012-01-26T13:43:00.000-08:00

Date: March 2008

Time: 2:00 a.m.

I saw one of these manta crafts over Meridian Idaho. It was about 500 feet up and it was cruising along effortlessly and seemed nearly invisible against the night sky.

Between Franklin and Highway 84 headed in the direction of Ontario, Oregon.

It made no sounds, had no lights, it did block the stars out and it went directly over head. The time and date was 2:00 a.m. on March of 2008 (we were in the hot tub)

I estimate the thing was 500 feet from the ground and 200 + feet wide. It looked like a short tailed Manta Ray. I do believe I saw another one much, much higher and on the other side of the highway and way further away, but flying in the same general direction as the closer one.

They seemed to mimic the sky's color, but did block out the stars light as they passed in between the stars and my eyes. No sounds, no markings, no visible engines.

Orange Lights Seen On Different Dates Over Brackenfell Cape Town South Africa

2012-01-26T13:13:00.001-08:00

Date: January 24, 2012 (Various other dates)

Time: Evening.

Good day, one evening in March 2011 my husband called me outside to come and look at these funny bright orange lights that looked like lanterns hanging in the sky. There were 3 of them and they came out of different directions and flew into one direction almost forming a triangle.

First the one stopped like it was waiting for the others. When they all reached each other they just disappeared. I contacted our local radio station to report the sighting and they made a joke and asked me if we have been eating “special cookies”.

Again on New Year’s 2011 we were waiting for the clock to strike 12 and my husband shot off a flare or two. As we were watching flares out of different areas, these bright lights appeared again only this time there were 5.

Last night (24/01/2012) there were another sighting in Brackenfell area, only this time it was a friend of mine who has put it on Facebook.

Could you please let me know what this could be.

Kind regards.

Date: December 2011

Time: Approx: Between 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.

A resident of Kraaifontein has seen them twice on different occasions. I cannot remember the exact dates, but also came from the north, 3 of them. They looked like micro-light planes (but very silent), the one was slight in front of others.

As they reached almost over our house the 2 back ones hovered for a while and the front one made a left turn and disappeared into thin air. and the others followed just as fast.

That was at about between 21h00 and 22h00 in December 2011.

5 Or 6 Flickering Orange Lights Seen Over Sugar House Salt Lake City Utah

2012-01-26T11:01:00.001-08:00

Date: January 25, 2012

Time: 8:45 p.m.

(8:45 p.m., 1/25) From our Sugarhouse front porch, looking northward toward the Aves, we saw 5 or 6 flickering, orange lights floating westbound toward town.

They sort of looked like those Japanese lanterns that people launch into the sky, by the way they were flickering.

Only these were much larger/brighter. Strangely, as each one floated behind the trees in the foreground, they weren't reappearing. I've never seen anything like it!

Time: Evening.

I saw a similar event tonight. From my house in the Avenues, looking west, I saw 3 orange lights in the sky, hovering up and down and horizontally.

The lights descended very low and then rose up and slowly extinguished, still in my field of vision.

Not helicopter lights, because they were a constant orange glow, too bright, no flashing, and unusual movement.

Silent Orange Object With A Belt Of Red Lights Seen Over Centurion South Africa (Picture)

2012-01-25T19:25:00.000-08:00

Date: January 20, 2012

Time: 8:23 p.m.

Hi Guys, this thing was not noisy and it could move forward and back which an airplane cannot. It is bizarre that it was orange and had a belt of red lights and look at it on the pictures, I called Evelyn and we just watched and the closest phone was my Nokia.

The funny part is that it looks green on camera.

I have not tried to call the military base which is close to me. The thing is the movements on this craft are 360 and fluid. At this point it was going Menlyn side.

People we are not alone on earth. All those who were at Standard bank we used to laugh at Helen, she might have been right.

Zoom in on both the pictures. Haai.

Brian it happened on Friday 20/01/2012 @ 20h23 (I checked it on my DSTV) there was only one in the air close to see.

See attached pictures I called my nanny to the garden and we watched them for 10 minutes. Pity I was using my Nokia and not my Canon camera.

I mean I live in Wierdapark X2 next to the military base I and both Lanseria and or Tambo are not far from me. When the military does their dry runs we always hear from jets to cargo planes.

This thing did not have wings it was orange-ish with a belt of lights in the middle.

It was the moves that it did forward, backward sideways and how it can shot up and come down and halt in one space that was just weird. I did not even bother calling the base cause I thought if we are not being attacked why even bother.

At least my long life question of visitors from far was answered. Enjoy the pictures.

UFOs Or Paper Lanterns ?

By Jennifer Lang - Cloverdale Reporter
Published: January 25, 2012 6:00 a.m.

Was it a practice run for the Mayan calendar prediction? Was it E.T. phoning home?

Or was it a group of illuminated, floating paper lanterns, released into the skies over Cloverdale by some celebrant who got carried away by the spirit of the season?

Three To Five White Objects Chasing One Another Over South Oshawa Ontario (Search Lights)

2012-01-24T21:00:00.000-08:00

Date: January 21, 2012

Time: Just past midnight.

Vike Factor Note: The witnesses son had told his Mom that what was seen were search lights. This was really great that they still did let me know as it helps out a lot.

Sorry, the last comment was a little lacking in detail. Three to five white orbs chasing each other, occasionally converging. Thought at first it was searchlights reflecting off the clouds, but they don't move like searchlights.

Look more like orbs moving within the clouds. This is in Oshawa, to the south-east (or maybe just the south). I've been watching for close to half an hour. Publishing as anonymous 'cause I can't figure this thing out.

Additional Information:

Just after midnight, January 21st, 2012. After I posted, my son saw the lights, informed me that it was spotlights from some club in south Oshawa. Says they've been there for years. So, another embarrassing moment for Mom. Oh, well. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, though.

5 Bright Orange Balls Of Light Over Sandy City Utah

2012-01-24T20:35:00.001-08:00

Date: January 22, 2012

Time: 7:00 p.m.

Hello, I had found your blog late last night after driving home. I read some stories that had sounded alot like what I had just seen and so I thought I would share my story. I feel that it needs to be documented somewhere.

January 22^nd at 7:00 p.m. MST in Sandy City, Utah. We had just gotten off the freeway when my girlfriend and I looked up and there were 5 bright orange balls 2 close together and then 2 on the outsides (. .. .) positioned like that. We thought they were falling stars or something so we pulled over.

They weren’t falling. But the 2 on the outsides started distancing (horizontally). They moved behind a cloud heading south and we could still see one when 3 more flew up over the mountain heading to the same spot. They too hovered and then disappeared.

When they were flying we could see that they were bright orange and had red extremities. They were low enough that we could tell they weren’t common aircraft but too bright to make an actual description of them. The red extremities were separate from the orange glow.

No noises came from them and we ended up driving south but could not see them anywhere in the sky. 2 other cars had pulled over but we had not spoke with them.

7 Glowing Orange And Yellow Objects Over Draper Utah

2012-01-24T20:22:00.000-08:00

Date: January, 21, 2012

Time: 6:45 p.m.

From the back yard of our home in Draper, UT (13800 So. 700 E. area), my wife and I witnessed seven, orange and yellow glowing objects over Draper, UT. Noticed first object rise fairly quickly, coming up over what appeared to be the 10600 So. State Street area of Sandy, UT, which is about three miles North of our home.

All objects rose separately about 15 seconds apart from the same area. They didn't appear to be in any type of organized formation. All objects looked at first to head towards the East then gradually changed direction, heading SSW. One came directly over our home.

The others were spread out up to a quarter mile to the East of us, all gaining altitude until they were higher than Point of the Mtn. All seven of the objects, traveling at a speed of approximately 40-50 mph, headed directly SSW over the mountain South of Draper, disappearing into the clouds.

Low clouds at the time were sitting at about the same height as the top of the mountain to the South of us. Light rain at the time, swirling wind. There was absolutely no noise coming from objects. These objects glowed with distinctive orange and yellow colors, slowly flickering or maybe pulsating (not flashing) as if they were a flaming fire.

Weird description I know, but that's the best way I can describe it.

A friend of ours who lives in Draper said her son told her about a month ago that he had seen a UFO just West of Draper, and described it exactly as we saw it on Saturday.

Matte Black UFO Performing Maneuvers In And Out Of The Clouds At West Kelowna British Columbia

2012-01-24T20:06:00.001-08:00

Date: January 22, 2012

Time: Morning/daytime.

Hi Brian, I found you online right after this occurred. Sunday morning I took my dog out to do her business in the field beside our condo in West Kelowna. On the way back these two older fellows in their 70's, I would imagine called me across the street and said "young fella come over here" (keep in mind I am 43 years old).

Anyways, they pointed up at the sky which was overcast and grey and asked me to see what I could make of an object there. It was very far away and high and at first glance looked like a helicopter, all matte black performing maneuvers, but there way no sound and some of it’s movements we're unnatural to a helicopter.

The one guy said he was in the service and that was no helicopter, and after 15 minutes he said he was going to go get his binoculars. The object looked like two black balloons tethered together by a cable, one larger than the other. The movement was strange, but also fluid and it disappeared at times into the clouds.

This object was very high up and though you suppose it could have been weather balloons of some kind, it was not kids balloons. You could see how fast the clouds were moving and it was at their altitude, but stationary in respect to them. Suppose it could have also been a remote controlled object, but again it was pretty high up for that.

As in a km at least. Well that's all I have and I am one skeptical guy until I have proof. I just cannot explain what I saw.

Bright Orange Ball Of Light Seen From Toronto Ontario

2012-01-24T19:53:00.001-08:00

Date: January 21, 2012

Time: Between 9:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.

Vike Factor Note: I was not the person who saw an orange object as the witness thinks, it would have been someone else who had a similar sighting.

Hi Brian, my name is (name removed) I live in Toronto, Ontario. On January 21st 2012, anywhere between 9:30-10:30 pm.

I was outside a friends place who lives at Place Pier which is down by lake Ontario. Anyhow I was outside when this bright orange ball (which is how I describe it) at first I thought it was a plane on fire from the island airport.

It is called the Porter Airport, but the ball kept coming from the SE and travelled to the NW where it just stayed there and got smaller and smaller until it was gone. It was like it just burnt out. Just a FYI, I did call all the people at the dinner party and two people came out.

The first one saw the orange ball on fire moving and the second person saw as it came to a stop and faded away. I have seen many things in the sky, some explainable and some not, but this is the most puzzling. I thought at first a plane, or maybe something they were dropping, or a meteor, but that already came at the beginning of January.

My last thought is some government test because that is always possible, but like I said I am very confused about this orange ball, and since you seen the same thing I am emailing you. Thanks for your time

Red Orange Light Seen Over Bonita Springs Florida

2012-01-24T16:54:00.001-08:00

Date: January 21, 2012

Time: Approx: 9:00 p.m.

On Saturday the 21st of January at about 9:00 p.m. my neighbor came to my door all excited about a bright light that she was seeing in the northeastern sky. She was quite excited as I had called her and her husband out to see the recent rocket that was launched from Cape Canaveral.

I have a 15X70 pair of binoculars that I use for celestial observation so I was able to get a good look at the object. At first I thought that I was looking at a flare that someone had shot up, but the size appeared to be too large.

The color was also reddish orange as described in the sighting of January 5. The object that I saw appeared to be very slowly descending. My position at the time of the sighting was close to the intersection of 41 and Wiggins Pass rd.

The direction to the object was such that it would have been toward the Dog Track at the intersection of Old 41 and Bonita Beach Rd.

At one point the light went out and as I continued to look at the point where it had become extinguished I could see what appeared to be a dark object that may have been a parachute.

The only question in this narrative is the time of the occurrence. I am not sure and I would have to check with my neighbor.

Sincerely Yours.

Bright Blue Light Streaks Across The Sky Over Las Vegas Nevada

Date: January 2012

Time: Evening.

I witnessed a bright blue light streak across the Las Vegas sky. I'm not sure how long ago it was, possibly a couple of weeks ago. It moved to fast to be a plane, but too slow to be a meteor.

I was driving so I took my eyes off of it for a couple of seconds and looked back to find it was gone.

My wife was sitting in the passenger and saw the same thing.

5 Lights Seen Over Queenswood Pretoria South Africa

2012-01-24T12:19:00.000-08:00

Date: January 20, 2012

Time: 8:25 p.m.

Good afternoon, I live in Queenswood, Pretoria.

On Friday night I was relaxing near my sliding door (stay 5 stories up in a flat) when a bright star I noticed suddenly faded and disappeared. I thought this interesting but assumed it was one of those revolving satellites. Got up to look but could not see it again.

This was around 20:15. Due to this strange happening I kept glancing out the door. At 20:25 I suddenly saw a bright light coming from the north east side (came out from behind the neighboring flat which obstructs my ground level view) on Pretoria in line with the airplane fly route from or Tambo just east of the N! to Pietersburg.

I called my wife to come look as I thought it to be another satellite. As we stood watching another four lights appeared identical to the first. No sound or burn trial if it were planes or choppers or even a meteorite, we see lots of them out there, but they go down to earth.

The four lights, in formation of two each near each other was not going super fast and at first I thought it might have been flares. A plane from OR Tambo then passed overhead nearby the lights in the opposite direction so I am sure the pilot and most in the plane would have seen them.

Seemed to be the same height of the ground. The one light then moved towards the other formation and then seemed to burnout, still not burn trial but I could see it glow and fade away if it was flare why change direction to the side and up.

The front light then did the same followed by the light that was left alone. Quick fade, glow and disappear.

The formation of the other two lights then continued over the flat. We both moved to the passage on the other side of the building and also watch them fade away.

I cannot find anything about these lights, or were they really flares? But shot from what as there were no planes or anything else following the lights. A very strange unexplained occurrence.

Thought I would share the experience and maybe find out what we saw. Regards.

Light Pink/Rose Colored Oval Shaped UFOs Seen From McHenry County Illinois

2012-01-23T00:29:00.001-08:00

Date: August 8, 1988

Time: Approx: 9:40 p.m.

On Sunday, August 8, 1988 at approximately 9:40 p.m. I was sitting outside near the north side of our house having a cigarette. I was facing toward the east at the time and happened to look toward the northeast for some reason.

I saw five objects coming from the north and heading toward the highway about four blocks to the north of us. The objects were heading toward the south at a high rate of speed and were flying in a V formation.

They came across the highway and headed toward the creek that flows nearby. From my position, they were about a half mile to the east and appeared to be about a thousand feet or so up in the air.

The objects were oval in shape and a light pink/rose color. They seemed to look almost transparent. They made no noise that I could hear. They flew over the creek and the nearby woods and continued south.

I watched them until they disappeared from sight.

Red Orange Light Spotted Twice Over Indialantic Florida

2012-01-23T00:20:00.001-08:00

Date: December 31, 2011 and January 19, 2012

Time: Approx: 10:30 p.m.

My boyfriend and I have together seen these strange lights in Indialantic over the river on two separate occasions. The first time was on New Year's Eve 2011, at around 10:30 p.m. There were six lights flying in a V-formation.

The lights changed from red, to orange, and white. They then flew into a vertical uniform line, and slowly disappeared one by one. The second time was just last night, on 1/19/2012. This time it was just one light, flying low over the river.

The light changed from red to orange and white, and then it quickly took off up into the night sky. Another man driving on A1A saw the light and pulled over to speak to us about what we saw.

There are other people taking notice of these occurrences as well, as we did notice a low flying military plane in the area of both sightings.

Loss Of Time From Princeton To Chilliwack British Columbia

2012-01-22T21:26:00.000-08:00

Date: 1960 (give or take a year)

Time: After midnight.

Hi Brian, was just reading about the woman who was missing time or the memory of driving to get her kids.

Back about 1960 give or take a year. I was driving back to Vancouver from Penticton. It was after midnight, there was no traffic so as per usual in those days I was cruising about along doing about 80 mph. or 130 kph.

I saw a sign saying you are entering Princeton the next thing I knew I was on the Freeway near Chilliwack still doing about 80 mph. I've always just assumed I fell asleep and some how drove about 100 miles over the top of the mountains. At the time I never thought to check my watch.

Several months later I made the same trip and once again slept coming over the Hope/Princeton, but I can vaguely recall myself driving from one side of the highway to the other, each time my wheels dropped of the road I'd automatically turn the steering and continue until the wheels dropped of the other edge, I remember waking up near Hope.

I don't remember opening my eyes even once coming over the mountain, just drove by feel. Lucky for me and everyone else there was apparently no other traffic.

About 1964 a friend of mine asked me to come with him on a drive to just south of Seattle. I had been working all night and was really tired so figured I'd sleep all the way there. We crossed the border and I started to settle down for a nap.

Then I made the mistake of looking at my friend. To my horror he was sound asleep. Instantly I was wide awake. I stayed awake right to our destination. Believe it or not, but not once did he open his eyes.

We would overtake other vehicles and he would change lanes, pass then return to the right lane. He didn't open his eyes until after we had stopped at our destination.

When we got home I told his wife what had happened, she said, it used to scare her when they first got married and he went to sleep. But now she just went to sleep herself.

Object Colored Blue Green With A Haze Around It Seen Over Tempe Arizona

2012-01-22T21:14:00.001-08:00

Date: December 31, 2011

Time: Approx: 8:30 p.m.

I am a taxi driver and was out all night that night. I was on a call near Broadway and S. McClintock Dr in Tempe, Arizona when I saw it. I was parked and outside my cab talking to another driver.

We had been waiting on a group of people to come out of their apartment and so were just passing time.

I looked up and saw a strange object moving rapidly, but not real fast, across the sky from south to north. It looked like it glowed and was a sort of bluish/green or maybe turquoise color.

It seemed to me that it had a slight haze around it as it moved although there were no clouds or mists at the level it was flying.

I initially thought it could be a firework, but as it moved along I realized it could not be that as it covered too much area and stayed the same brightness as it moved.

I would estimate that as I watched it the object covered about 2 miles of sky before disappearing behind some trees. This told me it was actually very low in the sky.

The other driver I was with saw exactly the same thing. We were amazed at what we saw as once it was gone and we discussed what it could be we realized we had seen a "UFO".

The time we saw it was about 8:30 p.m. December 31, 2011.

By The Way - I was a aviation and high tech technician for various Dept. of Defense projects (and stationed at Luke AFB) back in the 70s and 80s and I am very familiar with how aircraft fly.

This was a very weird aircraft if that was what it was, but I doubt it.

Two Balls Of Fire Flying Over Boynton Beach Florida

2012-01-22T21:04:00.001-08:00

Date: January 19, 2012 ?

Time: 10:00 p.m. or 11:00 p.m.

Mr. Brian Vike, I thought the kids in my neighborhood were going nuts, I thought my daughter was on drugs and I definitively thought my friends were trying to play with my head. It’s true, everything they have said they seen over the sky of Boynton Beach FL.

I saw it for myself about 3 days ago maybe around 10:00 p.m. or 11:00 p.m. I was playing cards outside with a friend when we saw what looks like 2 balls of fire flying above not very high and not very fast.

We stared at it until disappeared, there have been multiple sightings of these objects I tried to capture these on my video cell phone, but I could not get the image (cheap phone).

I was thinking about this again this morning and figured if we are seeing it then there has got to be other people seeing it as well.

I am glad I checked Google which lead me to your page. I am seriously curios as to what these objects are and why are they so active in our area. It's unlike anything I have ever seen before.

15 To 20 Bright Red/Orange Colored Lights Over Lakewood Area Of Jacksonville Florida

2012-01-22T18:45:00.001-08:00

Date: January 21, 2012

Time: Evening.

Yes, saw about 15-20 last night in the Lakewood area of Jacksonville. They were very bright, looked like the size of a large star/planet, reddish-orange, they came from the south, one after the other, sometimes in groups of 4 or 5, maybe more, then disappeared.

My husband thought they were missiles being fired at us because they just kept coming for about 3-4 minutes. Then they just stopped and the last one just disappeared.

Disc Shaped Object Blue With Red Orange Yellow Tail Over Gordon's Bay Western Cape South Africa

2012-01-22T18:37:00.001-08:00

Date: January 22, 2012

Time: Approx: 1:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: S34 09.501 E18 53.047, Gordon's Bay, Western Cape, South Africa
Number of witnesses: 2 people, myself and my friend.

Dear Brian, I was laying down in my garden with a friend of mine, looking at the sky while we were talking. We both saw it very clearly!

The object was flying very fast (estimate at 2-3000 km/h) in a straight line from north to south, at quite a low altitude and in absolute silence.

It seemed to be a disc shape with 5 or 6 reactors turned downwards showing a beautiful 'Spielberg' blue color (like a gas stove).

There was also a comet tail at least twice the size of the object and with more red/orange/yellow color added to the blue.

I have seen what I would call UFO in the past, but this one was incredibly beautiful and so close!

I have checked the web, but so far no sign of other witness maybe it is too soon? If you find something or have an explanation, please let me know! Kind regards.

Numerous Bright Orange Objects Rise Up From Behind The Tree Line At Orlando Florida

2012-01-22T18:28:00.001-08:00

Date: January 13 or 14th, 2012

Time: Approx: 8:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.

Hello Brian, I am responding to your web page http://unitedstatesufo.blogspot.com/2011/11/giant-orange-fire-ball-over-cape-coral.html and would like to tell you what my wife and my friend and his wife saw on January 13, maybe the 14th, 2012 in the night sky approximately between 8:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.

As we were sitting in our porch, my wife out of the corner of her eye saw an orange "glow ball" rising above the tree-line. She thought that possibly it was a plane or helicopter on fire, for we are on the northeast side of Orlando Florida and are in the path of most inbound airliners to Orl International Airport.

The "sphere" came above the tree-line and we watched as it headed north. After traveling a short distance, it turned more easterly, towards I would say New Smyna Beach or Daytona. I got out the binoculars and could not see any markings whatsoever on the sphere.

In retrospect, I would believe that if we were standing next to this "sphere", I would have said it to be 10 -13 feet in circumference. None of us could figure what this possibly could have been.

As we went back to sit down, a few minutes later, up from the tree-line came another, and it was followed by another. Again with binoculars, we could not determine any markings on them, and they too at the same point, took an easterly path towards ocean.

These were very bright orange, as if you put a very very extremely bright light inside a pumpkin. All in all, we saw approximately 16 of these spheres in a 30 minute period, with last 3 coming over the tree-line in a triangular pattern, each exactly alike and the same exact "pattern of flight".

We are not far (8 miles) from the University of Cent, Florida, and thought possibly it was an experiment by the University.

The next day I saw 2 news media vans by my place of work, and took the opportunity to ask both channels, channel 6 and 9, if they had any reports of glowing spheres in the sky the previous evening, and to my astonishment they said no, that nothing was reported to the media.

We didn’t call because we thought for sure someone would call, because of the very unusual sightings we saw, all 4 of us, apparently no one did. Your article was very familiar to what we saw, and I thought mentioning it to you, that you would seem interested in this "phenomenon".

We watched the news the next 24 hours, looked on internet for any posts on the subject, and nothing- which really peeks our curiosity.

So there is what my wife, I and 2 dear friends saw that evening, and I hope its useful to you.

UFO Was Like A Giant Triangle Seen Over McHenry County Harvard Illinois

2012-01-22T18:12:00.001-08:00

Date: October 2009

Time: 8:45 p.m.

On Thursday, October 9, 2009 at 8:45 p.m. my brother and I watched a UFO in the sky over our house in Harvard, Illinois, McHenry County. I saw the object first as it came from the southeast. The sky itself was cloudy, but the object was under the clouds and in clear view.

I at first thought it was a plane coming from O'Hare airport as they pass over our house quite often both coming and going. As I watched, this object didn't seem to be moving like a plane, it wasn't moving as fast and seemed more to float through the sky.

There were also six lights showing on the object. A plane generally shows four, one on the end of each wing, one near the nose, and one near the tail. A plane also generally has one blue light on one wing, and a red light on the other.

The lights on this were red and white only, I believe four red and two white. The lights formed a row and appeared to be on two sides. I went into the house and told my brother to come outside and look at this thing.

My brother and I went back outside. The time then was 8:45 p.m. The object had now moved closer, but as we watched, it began to float more to the west. We watched as it moved across the sky. It floated along the creek that flows about 100 yards to the south of our house.

It was in plain view, no obstructions. As we watched, it began to veer to the northwest, but it didn't bank, and turn like a plane would. It just gradually "floated" in that direction. We watched as it drew nearer to our street, finally passing overhead just on the west side of our house.

The object was maybe a couple of thousand feet up, but it still appeared to be large, like a 747 would. It made no noise that we could hear. We watched as it floated to the northwest and could now see that there was a third side to the object with two more red lights and one white one.

The object was like a giant triangle, with three sides and three lights on each side. We have no idea what it was, and because of the black background of the dark, cloudy sky, we don't know if it was solid in the center, or not.

We watched it for a total of probably nine, or ten minutes until it floated out of sight in the northwest. We know that it wasn't a hot-air balloon because there was no sound of the hot air burner. We have seen plenty of hot-air balloons go over. To this day, we still do not know what it was.

Bright Orange/Red Glowing Contrail At Night Seen By More Witness At Auburndale Florida

2012-01-21T21:02:00.000-08:00

Date: January 19, 2012

Time: Between 7:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.

At the same time my wife and I saw the exact same thing in the sky as we looked directly east of Auburndale, Florida where we live. The object appeared to be heading due west toward us, however, not in a descending manner.

At the end, no more trails could be seen and it appeared that the object came to a stop for approximately 20 seconds at which time the glowing orange light disappeared.

At first we thought it to be a meteor or maybe a plane on fire, but the physical behavior suggest otherwise.

15 Ember Colored Lights Seen Over Miami Florida

2012-01-21T20:53:00.000-08:00

Date: January 20, 2012
Time: 9:48 p.m.

I stepped out onto the terrace to have a smoke before bed and saw these as well. 15 ember-ish colored lights moving linearly.

Were not in a triangle.

We live approximately 15 minutes from the airport close to 826 so seeing air traffic is commonplace, however these were not standard aircraft.

They made no sound, had no running lights other than the glow, and all standard air traffic was far away in all directions. Any ideas what this is?

If you have seen anything like this in the same area please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike at: sighting@telus.net with the details of your sighting. All personal information is kept confidential.

Red Light Rises From Glenmore Reservoir At The Outskirts Of Calgary Alberta

2012-01-21T20:47:00.000-08:00

Date: 2000

Time: Evening.

I’m in a reserve just on the outskirts of Calgary, Alberta and back in 2000 I was just glancing out my window (high rise) and saw a red light rise from the Glenmore reservoir area, then fly into the sky.

I’d say it was about the size of maybe a helicopter, it was pretty amazing!

Bright White Light Shot Across The Sky Over Buccleuch Johannesburg South Africa

2012-01-21T20:37:00.001-08:00

Date: January 15, 2012

Time: Approx: 9:17 p.m.

Hi there, I saw a bright white light shoot across the sky as I was driving north on the N3 highway just before Buccleuch around 21:17.

I was pretty sure it was not a shooting star or a meteorite. It seemed quite large and as it was shooting across the sky it looked like it had a tail behind it.

It disappeared behind the horizon.

Would like to know what it was and if anyone else saw it too.

Thanks.

13 Or More Orange Lights Spotted Over Howell Michigan

2012-01-21T20:10:00.000-08:00

Date: January 21, 2012

Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.

I just read your information online about what you (a witness to file a report to me) saw in Boston. Tonight about 10:00 p.m. my daughter called me to the window. We saw 13 or more orange lights travel across the sky from south around Ann Arbor, northwest to where we were in Howell, MI.

They made no sound. It was very weird. We called my boyfriend to see them, and they started to disappear after they got to a certain point in the sky overhead. They started out close together and spread out across a trail from south east to north west.

Do you have any other information on these?
