Lights Zooming Around The Sky And Witnesses Truck Lit Up At Strip Pits (State Park) Just East Of Columbia Missouri

Date: Late 1980/Early 1981.
Time: 1:30 a.m. - 2:30 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of Objects: 5 – 10 ?
Shape of Objects: Spherical ?

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I noticed a bright red/orange spot in the sky, which molted into greenish blue and then I noticed white other lights streaking across the night sky toward and away from the larger spot, at rates far faster than any earthly aircraft. Then the ground around the truck began to brightly light up as if spotlighted, here and there, but with no visible 'beam' or source.

As this 'spotlight' eventually 'lit up' the truck where my infant son and I were waiting for my husband to come back with help for a flat tire that had occurred while we were out there nighttime cat-fishing in the strip pits. I began to try to communicate telepathically (in real fear and in the moment losing control of my bladder, that "Please don't do anything to my son. He's just a baby. Do whatever to me, but not my son. I'm not a threat. I'm friendly. I believe in peace for all beings of the universe and other trite sounding thoughts"

Just as quickly as this all began, I noticed the satellite white (changing to red and back) lights in the sky all zoomed toward the larger one and then 'poof' it all disappeared.

I tried to explain this all to my husband (because of the smell in the truck) but he wasn't having any of it. I waited over 20 years to bring it up to anyone again, but was so dismissed I didn't talk about it again until now.

I was searching for records on a severe downburst storm that happened in Columbia in July 1981 (that downed over 10,000 trees and almost killed my sons and me) and the Google search brought up another poster's UFO sighting file here from Columbia MO around the same time.

If I can lend any credence to their report, I hope this is helpful.

I was/am a Girl Scout First Class (equiv. to Eagle and now called Gold Award) and have extensive camping experience which includes lots of primitive camping/hiking of the Appalachian Trail.

I'm not afraid of the forest after dark. I had not smoked or drank anything that night because I was pregnant with my second son at the time. Also, if there were other reports or news about the experience at the time, I did not see/read/hear them.

Lights Zooming Around The Sky Over Kelowna And Westbank British Columbia

Date: December 12, 2010 and in 2003.

Time: Evening.

Hey, not sure if this is a real sight or not . But I wanted to let someone now what I've seen, to offer me an explanation or something

2003- I saw lights in sky at bus stop, there was 5 or 6 of them. They appeared to be chasing one another, not in an aggressive way, but in a 'game like manner. Witnessed by me and another person waiting for a bus.
These lights came fairly close, then shot off so incredibly fast.

I now live in Westbank near the water. Lights move from the sky and seem to skim the water, I thought these were car lights from the hillside on the other side, but these lights are similar, if not exact to what I saw in 2003. There is no pattern to how they fly, just a chasing pattern and then gone and up into the sky. I have seen these lights several times and I know they are not planes, aircraft, flashlights and cars. Just a side note, when I have no cell service, my cell says no network service.

Anyway I am not crazy or making this up, Just want to let people know who might believe me and offer me an explanation !

Additional Information:

Yes, I saw most the articles ! I thought out of all the sites yours was most reliable. I was in Kelowna before my move to Westbank, I lived in the mission area. I was at a bus stop in the boonies one night (there was another person waiting as well) when very noticeable lights were zooming around. There was 5 or 6 and they were just above an orchard (as we were at the bus stop on a hill and could see into the valley) they were luminous in blue color and large. Within seconds 3 shot up and the other went north across the valley and then swooped upwards. This was all in about 5 seconds or so and the guy waiting for the bus asked me " what the heck are those, do see this.

I did see what he saw as well. They moved at amazing speeds and all 5-6 of them were "chasing" one another like a game of tag, they were hard to count as they maneuvered so quickly. In the black night they were more visible, but I cant explain the speed, it was crazy. They zoomed around that night for about 3 minutes, then went so far up we could no longer see them.

I have seen these lights as recently as December 12th, 2010 above the lake near west point 4-5. This is when my cell went out of service until the lights vanished .

What concerns me is that about 20 years ago my dad who lived in Hartel AB Near Okotoks has similar sightings of lights chasing each other. He wasn't crazy either. What are they ? There's intelligence, the way the move as it seems calculated.
