Sphere over French Loop Road, NS · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Walked outside of trailer , was having a cigarette, looked up and saw 4-5 round glowing craft ….they were not drones …it was a super clear night ….they were just above the tree line hovering …. Staying in the same area , I alerted my buddy , he also saw the lights , they made no sound , I had no weird feeling only that I should look up for some odd reason …I checked my flight radar app , no planes were in the area …nothing with transponder , again no sound , no smell , just hovering about 100-200 foot off the ground …. Afterwards they took off towards sydney ….heavily wooded area … lack of cell phone reception , and abandoned mines in the area ….I am sure what I saw was something weird ….the red color of the ball type craft was almost glowing from the middle out …if it had an engine sound I would have heard it ….if it had propulsions I would have saw them , the conditions this day was extremely clear skies …..not a cloud in sight, 20 odd degrees celcius , around 11pm or 12 am , the moon was over head , no wind, I know whatever they were …..they were small ….because I couldn't get a clear shot with my phone video or camera….I was using a digital zoom and all I could see was a weird almost flashing but changing hues of red …. But with the naked eye we could see the crafts hang out … I never saw them again ….this is the second time in 14-15 years I have saw similar craft …. Other time being off the coast of Glace Bay We at the time were doing work on my buddies property , its remote, it's in the woods , has neighbours that mostly stay indoors or seasonal campers …no one was on that street with any kind of drone or kites I would have heard the tree branches shifting in the wind ,or the displacement of the turbines … It was weird ….and at the time we were camping in the old trailer and , we were setting up a 12 volt battery bank ,that was when I noticed a problem with our power set up ….we were off grid at the time using gasoline generator placed outside the trailer up the driveway in a generator box …..its almost silent inside …..but we could not keep our power equipment going that night in particular ….we had to use the jeep's alternator hooked up with jumper cables to keep it running that night …..as our regular generator was not working …. I would say similar size as the one reported off glace bay , Round ball(s) × 4-6 in total at one time 100-200 foot off ground Hovering ,red solid light and at times glowing a red mystical style Then they all took off at one time together towards Sydney, passing over big ridge , and french village area I do not know if it was one singular craft with lights in parallel ….or a series of small craft ….. Duration of light orbs maybe 10 minutes then at a speed similar to that of a fighter jet ….took off …without moving the trees , it's all pine trees and douglas fire …..I also didn't smell anything, or notice a jet stream or trail ….I didn't even notice any doors , windows, anything ….it was just like lights
