Breaking UFO Incident on Highway 16 between Houston, B.C. and Burns Lake, B.C.
Houston, British Columbia UFO Incident (Eyewitness Interview - Audio)
Date of sighting: August 3, 2008
Well lots of things have been happening, first of all I have not been able to do the write up over the major UFO event that took place here between Burns Lake and Houston, British Columbia. I have not been well enough to get the report written up.
Also a reporter by the name of Quinn from the Interior News was here yesterday, Sunday August 10, 2008 to do an interview on UFOs and this UFO event that took place on August 3, 2008. The nice part to this is the eyewitness for the UFO incident also came down to the home and related what he and his friend witnessed to the reporter and has given the news reporter permission to run his full name in the newspaper article which should be out not this week but the next. Also pictures of the eyewitness were taken for the article as well. Just so you understand, this was a close encounter with a UFO not once, but twice on Highway 16 between Houston and Burns Lake in a very short time period on the same night. I guess one might say the craft had the two eyewitnesses stopped on the highway twice. It hovered right in front of them at two different times almost preventing the driver to continue along there way.
Also, lots of reports to get added, so I will be getting at some of these hopefully later today if I can sit here long enough to get at some of what has come in. I should also note that I received some very interesting photos of a unknown craft as well. So lots to get done.
Sorry for the delay. Thank you, Brian.

Bellevue Hill, Sydney New South Wales, Australia - Two Disc UFOs
Date: November 1996
Time: 10:00 p.m.
I was standing at the top of Coopers Park and I saw two disc like shapes flying at very fast speeds criss-crossing each other-over Sydney. It lasted five minutes-and was very clear-they definitely were not bats or birds or known flying machines-and within minutes a helicopter arrived and torches were shined from a nearby point. They were black yet very luminous and visible I am still amazed no-one else reported this seemingly. I am pretty sure I was not imagining.

Transcona, Manitoba - A Huge Triangle (UFO)
Date: Around September 20, 2006
Time: Between 10:00 and 10:15 p.m.
I was sitting out on my deck with my wife, looking up at the sky. Something caught my eye and I did the classic double take, refocused my eyes and saw a huge triangular shaped object in the sky, coming from the west, heading east. It's altitude, I would guess, would be that of a small plane, and the size of it, a conservative estimate, I would say would be at least 100 yards per side, although the bottom was not as wide as it's sides. No lights on, but the corners of it were much darker, maybe some housings for lights? Not too sure.
Anyway, it made no sound, absolutely silent. The speed was hard to judge, but it was definitely not in a hurry. I would say it took about all of 10 seconds from the time I saw it for it to fly over my house. Ran out to the front of my house, and lost it in the street lights. My wife actually didn't see it, she has poor night vision, so I don't have anyone to back me up on this, although she can attest to sheer excitement of me seeing something that was definitely not a plane.

Edinburgh Waterfront, Seafield - Ball Of Light
Date: May 2008
Time: Approx: 5:00 a.m.
Object was a ball of light, moving just beneath the water, very close to shore, firth of forth. Objects color was white. As I watched from my window the object moved slowly, a passenger aircraft then flew over, very low and the pilots tilted the craft, very unusual for this flight path, but the plane did not turn, the pilots could have also been watching the object, I do believe that they where as they would clearly have an excellent view. I looked back at the ball of light and a few seconds later it vanished as the plane was directly overhead.

Calgary, Alberta - UFO Illuminates The Earth
Date: May 28, 2008
Time: 11:30 - 11:45 p.m.
I was on my patio smoking and looking up when I saw a bright roundish light which I at first assumed was a star. I noticed it getting brighter to the point it did indeed illuminate the earth very slightly and then dim right out, but I could still see it moving north west to north east slightly and then I could no longer see it. It seemed to be at the altitude of a plane and since the Airport isn't too far away I wanted to assume that it was a plane but it had no lights indicating that it was an airplane or helicopter of any form. The entire event lasted maybe 10 - 20 seconds.

Moncton, New Brunswick - A Unknown White Round Object
Date: Mid June 2008
Time: 4:30 p.m.
My husband and I were driving home after work on a cloudy and rainy day. As he was driving, I noticed as I looked towards the horizon, that there were white clouds and very dark clouds. But a round white object was going from east to west and I noticed it as it passed by the darker clouds. We were heading east and I lost sight of it as the road we were traveling on was a winding road. So I thought I lost sight of it for good until my husband took an exit that landed us back in the direction that I first saw it before. At first I didn't tell my husband because he was driving at a high rate of speed on the highway, so I observed this object that was still moving from east to west very slowly. When now it started moving from west to east very slowly. It was above the tree line and suddenly stopped and descended straight down like a rock would if you dropped one. I can't say for sure how big it was, but it was pretty big because.I could clearly see that it was round and I was a few miles away from it when I was observing. I told my son later that night what I saw and he was intrigued. He also has observed strange objects in the night sky as did my husband and I on several other occasions which I have reported to HBCC (to be continued I hope).

Before he could draw anyone's attention to it, it dropped down behind the mountain top and vanished. No sound or running lights, appeared similar to Venus. He is an amateur astronomer back in Australia, he lives back in the mountains where its is nice and dark.

Surrey, British Columbia - A Large White Star Like Object
Date: July 15, 2008
Time: 04:00
I was having trouble sleeping so I made myself a cup of coffee and went out on the deck to look at the sky. I'd just sat down when I noticed a large white star like object flying east at approx:. 4 to 5 thousand feet across the southern horizon. I checked with my binoculars but all they did was make it bigger. No running lights to be seen and no noise heard from it. Speed was similar to a normal passenger jet. I lost sight when it flew behind my building. I heard about my friends sighting in Chilliwack when they came home later that day.

Thames Ditton Surrey UK - Two Round A Shinny Objects
Date: July 16, 2008
Time: 8:00 p.m. and 8.45 p.m.
I was in my back garden at about 8pm and just coming over the top of my house I saw a red round object, I could not tell you the size of it bit looked quite large, there were no flashing lights or noises coming from it at all . When it came over my house, it was only about 100 foot high so i got a good look at it. It was shiny red and perfectly round and was traveling quite fast (but not too fast) and traveling straight up into the sky towards the high clouds... i watched it for a second or two and called my husband out and by the time he saw it, it was nearing the clouds and just went straight through the clouds and disappeared.(bearing in mind that there were no low clouds that night, the clouds were very, very high in the sky)
The second time we saw another one was about 45 minutes later and we were both out in the driveway and coming from a completely different direction, we saw it again but this time it was traveling straight across the sky (rather that going straight up into the clouds) and this one was shiny silver and traveling at the same speed as the one we saw previous. Again, no flashing lights or noises. We tried to film it but lost it when it disappeared out of sight behind a huge tree and didn't see it again after that.

2305 Hwy US-31 N Travere City, Michigan - An Oval UFO
Date: July 17, 2008
Time: 9:30 p.m.
As an engineer and pilot, I was utterly amazed at the strange shape which made no aerodynamic sense at all for the speed. The upper tall, 3/4 portion of an oval appeared black against the lighter cloudless twilight sky. The lower horizontal full oval section was a lighter grey than the sky and had several side lights. I estimated the size to be 70 ft. in overall height by 50 ft. wide across the bottom section.
It was really quite close. As a pilot who often gazes at airplanes moving by, I figured the object to be about 1/4 mile away at is closest point, with and altitude of about 400-500 ft., and moving east across Traverse East Bay at a constant speed of about 40-50 mph. The wind was less then 2 MPH and the water had only a slight ripple, so I have to dismiss the idea that the thing could be just a big balloon. I couldn't tell why the lower portion appeared lighter in color -- much like a back-lighted frosted screen or from some unseen indirect lighting source.

Date: July 18, 2008
Time: 11:30 p.m.
We were sitting in the back garden. We were called out to the front of our house by our neighbor. In the sky we saw 3 objects in a line all travelling in the same direction with 1 object following. They all flew in the same direction until they passed out of sight. Shortly afterwards we saw more flying through the sky following the same flight path. The neighbors had been watching others flying before they called us out. They all moved at a constant speed, height and direction. They made no noise. They were glowing orange globelike things.

Dorchester Dorset UK - A Round Orange Ball Shaped UFO
Date: July 19, 2008
Time: 11:33 p.m.
We went into our front garden to get our cat in and noticed a bright light in the sky, it was a clear night with what appeared to be a full moon. The light was roundish in shape and very bright orange with slight green to the edges it was moving at a reasonable pace , with no sound, we did not think of it as a plane or helicopter as it was too big and faster and unlike anything we have seen. I went in to get my father to come and see it and in that time my partner stayed watching the object. It was heading west then changed direction to south picked up speed and faded into the distance, but from the time I went in and came out all of less than 1 min it had changed so fast. I am really certain we saw a UFO I cant explain it, it was so bright and large and faded so quick and the way it changed direction so fast! I cant explain it.

I did a walk with my daughter to a small lake to feed ducks and the sky was complete cloudless. You could see for 100km without a single cloud. I was looking up into the sky and saw a triangle shaped object appearing from nowhere and moving from North to South at about 200-300 Meters high and with a speed approximately about 400-600Kmh. It was very shiny at the bottom and looked like glowing but very bright just like if I would look into the sun. It was passing by without any noise or smoke trail. and just vanished after 5 seconds without changing altitude or direction.

Queenstown, New Zealand - A Disk Shaped UFO
Date: July 20, 2008
Time: 11:18 p.m.
We saw lights hovering right next to a hill that we look out to from our lounge. There were around 10 lights in total, although as the visibility wasn't ideal it was hard to count as they tended to blur from the hovering motion. The lights slightly illuminated the shape of the object which was not entirely smooth, but it was a discus form overall. It hovered for around 4 minutes then the lights disappeared, then they reappeared after about 5 minutes. The object then shot directly upward very rapidly. We didn't see it again. We don't exactly know what we saw but there is no obvious explanation

Northeast Of Maryvale QLD, Australia - Sparks Exploded Behind Object
Date: July 21, 2008
Time: 7:20 p.m.
At 7.20pm Australian EST on 21 July 2008, looking north-east of Maryvale QLD we spotted a bright light larger than the largest visible star moving from South to North with a flowing tail. Three seconds after sighting a ring of orange sparks exploded from behind the object and its colour changed from bright white to electric pale blue. At the point of explosion of sparks the object slowed noticeably and continued on for only two seconds before it disappeared. This is not the first object of this type to appear and disappear in similar fashion in this vicinity. The object disappeared in the vicinity of Mt. Mistake, which is west of Toogoolawah and east north east of Maryvale. For overseas readers, this area is in the Great Dividing Range west of Brisbane Queensland and east south east of Toowoomba and east north east of Warwick Queensland.

Tenterden, Kent, UK - A Bright Orange Light
Date: July 21, 2008
Time: 10:50 p.m.
My eldest son of 18 walked in the back door and said come and look at this in the sky. Myself and my two other children ran outside and we could see a bright orange light coming towards us in a curve line from the left. We could see 3 planes in the sky and it looked nothing like them, no flashing lights, no sound and it seemed lower in the sky. As it came towards us it started to turn back to the left and started to fade as it seemed to rise higher. We watched as it turned to a tiny dot in the sky. It looked as if it went to high to be an airplane. I tried recording it on my mobile phone but it only came out as a tiny dot on the screen.

Surrey, British Columbia - A Small Dark Object
Date: July 27, 2008
Time: 3:30 p.m.
I was sitting in my living room talking with my wife while idly glancing out the windows to the east and watching the clouds as they changed shape. I observed a small dark object partially projecting from a large white cloud for a few seconds and then it appeared to be drawn back in. I continued to keep an eye on that area and a few minutes later a black cylinder like object came out of the cloud flying at high speed. Direction of travel was NNW but it almost immediately commenced to make a very sharp turn towards the south. Within seconds it appeared to be reversing direction as if it was making a large S turn. I was grabbing frantically for my binoculars but only managed to knock them over. In the second or two I took to look for them the object vanished. I ran out onto my deck but was unable to see where it had gone. The object appeared to be similar in proportion to a rifle shell.

Falmouth, Nova Scotia - A Very Bright Orb
Date: July 31, 2008
Time: Approx: 9:30 p.m.
At approx. 9:30 pm, on the evening of Thursday July 31st, 2008, I was outside locking up my car for the night, when I noticed a very bright object in the southeastern sky. I seemed to be rising straight up. I called out my wife and oldest child, and told them to turn off the front light so we could get a better look. My oldest got a bit nervous and they went back inside after watching it for only a few minutes. I continued to watch the object for roughly 10 minutes as it tracked steadily eastward. Approx 15 minutes later I observed another, less luminous object tracking in the same direction. I stayed out for another 20 minutes or so, and I saw a third object approach from the western sky. This object appeared to be much closer and more luminous than the first two. It tracked at a great rate of speed steadily forward, disappearing from view after only roughly 2-3 minutes of viewing. I have seen many, many airplanes over this area, but these were quite distinct from any aircraft I have ever seen.
