Sphere over Musgrave Landing, BC · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On Nov 2, 2022, my family saw a series of lights hovering nearby in the night sky. I saw them first and thought it was such an odd sight. I pointed it out to my husband and daughter. We thought perhaps it was helicopters hovering in a triangle formation but it would be impossible for them to appear that way. There was no noise and the objecys were red, orange, yellow in color. They stayed in position for at least a minute or two. They definitely were not moving because I could see the silhouette of the tree line and hill beneath them and the objects were static. But then they broke formation and went irrationally in different directions. They moved faster than any aircraft could possibly move. They almost hopped from one spot to another. I started filming them when the formation broke up. I also took a picture. It seemed like it lasted for a long time but it was probably 3-5 minutes total. I am reporting this now because I understand that there was a senate hearing about UFOs recently and these kinds of sitings are now being taken seriously. I have never believed in UFOs prior to Nov 2, 2022, but I absolutely believe in them now after what we saw. These objects were definitely not planes or helicopters or drones or sallelites. Nor were they laser lights or projections from land. They were objects in the sky that stayed in formation and then split up and bounced all around. I can't explain it, but I'm convince they were something not human made.
