Triangle over Peterborough (Canada), ON · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was leaving my subdivision, when my roomate and I noticed a triangular object in the sky. It had white/green lights on each point of the triangle with different coloured lights blinking under the craft. We also noted that the object was flying lower and much faster than a commercial plane would have been. It was also flying in a weird pattern, making large circling patters and weaving in and out. Nothing like how a regular plane would fly. For a moment we thought that maybe it could be a drone but the object would have been far too large to be a drone if it were on the ground. After a few minutes we could no longer see it in the sky, as we were driving away from it, after exiting the subdivision. This happened off of Airport Road in the South West end of Peterborough, ON.

After hearing your report on Coast to Coast of the orange lights seen in Seattle, I then looked at the video on your website and was stunned to see the exact same thing my husband and I saw. On this past New Years Eve at 11:45 pm, I was in my bedroom and saw out the window (we have a really high view above the city) an orange light moving across the sky. At first it looked a bit like a diamond shape but then it was clearly an orange Orb shape moving from the NW to the E. I called out for my husband who ran up to the kitchen to look out the window but he didn’t see it. Within a minute he started calling my name to come look and I ran down to the kitchen and another orange Orb was moving from the same starting point in the same direction. We went outside to listen for sounds of an engine and heard only silence, also there were no other lights on these things, just round orange lights moving across the sky but a little faster than what was seen in the video on your website.

They elevated in height very slowly. It was a slightly foggy and slightly cloudy night. The objects got very high until they each disappeared one after the other. Each light was about the size of a star and coloured the same as a star.

We were looking at the meteor shower and saw a flashing object hovering. It stayed hovering for 15 min with flashing red green and yellow light. We thought it must have been a star but it eventually moved out of sight, with no noise. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

At approximately 23:15 Saturday evening, a group of 9 where sitting around a camp fire. Staring into the brilliant sky looking for shooting stars, one of the persons in the group noticed a bright light east of Peterborough. Looking in the night sky, east towards Trenton, ON (Military Base), we all agreed that there was a bright light (orange/red) heading west towards Peterborough. The light then stopped and became very bright and stopped for a moment and in an instant the light shot straight up into the sky. Minute later we noticed planes travelling at high speeds at approximately the same altitude circulating a huge parameter where the bright orange/red light had been minutes before.
