Light over Oshawa (Canada), ON · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On April 30, 2018 while at home in southwestern Oshawa, Ontario, I went outside for a tea and smoke after 9:00 pm After a few minutes looking up and around the sky facing west towards neighboring Whitby, Ontario I noticed near above my house a slow low faint white light moving north 9:07 pm The light would brighten some and then would fade out - disappear seconds at a time The flight path looked near straight and continue north until out of view Watched it for under two minutes wondering ? Intrigued I stayed outside looking again around the sky Then had a urge to again look above the roof Shocked I see another one coming in from the north to south around 9:25 pm It was heading directly towards over my position quarter mile away As I now stood up watching it as again would brighten up or then just fade right out It moved on a slight turn [ over my house] heading southeast towards Lake Ontario As I watched it high in the sky moving slowly when it appears You could see it rocking slightly side to side Tried to film it heading southeast - too distant and faint light Then after couple minutes lost sight of it There was no sound heard what soever Again just a white slow light - no other colors I then went inside my house again wondering Later , after 11:15 pm returned outside on my deck Curious sat down and looked about the sky Again after a few minutes to the west Maybe two three miles away see another one high in the sky Same characteristics as the previous two types witnessed This third one was moving from south to north It appeared to be going straight yet would fade and appear for 10- 20 seconds apart The sky appeared clear and watched it head north until out of sight Sighting lasted couple of minutes or more Now having seen three UFO sightings of the same type I felt excited to witnessing three in one night - not the first time Again due to wonderment stayed outside I believe about five minutes later looking about west , north and south I had a urged to again look above my roof While sitting in the chair stretched forward and looked up Shocked I see these really bright pulses of white light Just like a camera flash in the dark I immediately stood up with my camera in hand still shocked looking up The pulses were intermittent flashes After about 4-5 of brightest large flashes Watching it move directly from north to south over house These flashes appeared very slow in movement The pulses then got much smaller after first ten seconds There may have been six to eight smaller ones Then it just stopped near above my house I could hear and see no aircraft at the time No running lights seen Only these extreme bright white bright light flashes I'm still in a awe coupled in a state of shock in wonder Is this a form of visual contact by non human ? In conclusion even I don't believe it Yet it is still happening of all I seen and have filmed reporting to you Sorry there is no photographic evidence on this date witnessed After the flashes stopped 30 - 40 seconds Turned on my camera video ON filmed for any further pulses I gave up after one minute There were no more I then went back inside still shocked The real question I thought of the four I had witnessed ? Were they all the same one flying about ? I feel it a duty as citizen of the world to report this to you Please note this is no joke I have totaled my witnesses and well on film There is something unknown in different forms truly flying in our airspace here How can anyone sat on their hands witnessing so much since 2003 This substantial increase in numbers again started 2015 Continues to increase this year 2018 Thought this very important to share with you Peter Would be curious if there others like me reporting this to you Only those that are sky watchers could relate if they also are under a form of contact Best regards ((name deleted))

My partner and I were walking back from the tim hortons on Wentworth we made it to our parking lot when i had a sudden urg to look up, directly above my partner and I was an object hovering silently with an extremely bright light, we immediately knew something was up, it wasn't moving and had no red indicator lights on it at all. it wasn't a helicopter or plane, and it was too low to be a satellite (I see them all the time) it started moving West northwest slowly accelerating. it made a sudden lateral move to the right then continued on straight, my partner pulled out his phone to record and it immediately disappeared. it reemerged about a mile away almost instantly then disappeared again. we got that part on recording, we zoomed into the video to get a better look and our stomach sank it was something we had only seen on tv. shortly after it was no longer in sight we saw 2 planes a short distance apart trailing its path. we have the phone recording and zoom! ed in images if anyone wants to see them.

A friend and I were driving on a residential street 500m or so from my home when we saw a craft fly just in front of my car. The craft's shape was difficult to see clearly, but it was slowly pulsating orange light. It appeared low to the ground, (maybe 100 to 200 meters off the ground) and seemed to be small in size, perhaps only a few meters in circumference. Initially I thought it was a drone because of it's size, elevation and it was only moving 40-60km per h I would estimate. We took a few pictures and followed it for about 20 seconds before the lights dimmed out and we could not see it any more, it may have disappeared or just turned off it's lights. Also, there was no sound. I have looked on youtube for night helicopter videos and I cannot find anything that looks even remotely close to what we saw.

Strange red lights in a triangle formation over lake Ontario. Fairly large in size. Was gone before we could get turned around and observe closer. Didn't appear to be moving from what I could tell.

On Friday, May 1,2020 I went outside onto my deck at dusk After some minutes at around 9:10 pm Witnessed a small moving light- like a star light moving from the west to east It came towards my position and then faded out within seconds [ 10 - 15 seconds] Then ten minutes later , witnessed another brighter one to the west Much closer - quarter mile away ? This one's direction was from south to north directly west where I sat The brightness reduced dramatically after 5- 8 seconds , then faded out gone ! Then again at 9:35 pm witnessed a third one Resembling again like the first two like a starlight - whitish blue This one came from the northwest heading overhead southeast - faded out Then about 9:55 pm Again I witnessed another one heading the direction of last one witnessed Then after 20- 30 seconds witnessed another one - same direction Then another one following the first two counting them now to three They just kept coming [ 4,5,6,7,8,9-- - 40 +] one at a time like a train of single star lights This was going on for near ten minutes until the last one As I called a friend in neighboring Whitby,Ontario to go out and see these things While watching and talking to him on the phone Navigated him where in the sky to look Then after about near 40 + gone by there were no more Still chatting with my friend by speaker phone After couple minutes - More started to cross the sky - like a second wave Same characteristics in speed and separate distant apart in a line flight path 20 - 30 seconds at a time apart This second line of objects now were three- five degree west Yet still followed southeast direction from northwest Now my friend could see them watching and still chatting by phone After about 20 single objects had passed over Both of us noticed the last one had stopped As if took position to masquerade like a star I do understand about the presence of star link satellites Yet in this episode witnessed feel is a little more then that to report Just theorizing maybe that ALL are NOT star link satellites ? Please note the sky was absolutely clear which is rare here I tried on and off to film them Couple of poor quality videos Thanks for your site to report the bizarre

Myself and 3 other friends were smoking cigarettes on our balcony when we noticed a really fast moving white light(non-blinking). We live near an airport and are used to many planes coming in and out of where we live, however this was moving much faster than any plane. I initially told my friends it was the ISS moving so fast, I've never seen anything fly this fast in person before. As soon as the light got to it's maximum speed it quickly made a SHARP turn and started to fade. I'm an amateur pilot with about 100 hours of flight training and I can tell at that speed the G's would have been way too intense for any human being to endure. I'm unsure exactly what it was but we cannot deny that we all saw it, we were all extremely freaked out afterwards.
