Moncton (Canada), NB · Canada
It was the morning of Wednesday, October 29th, at 6:55am. In the city of Moncton, New Brunswick. While we were driving down our street we seen something in the sky coming towards us that was about 300-400 up in the air. Once it got beside us it hovered over us for about a minute and started flashing a red light while we waited at the stop sign to turn left. It appeared to have a lot of lights on it and looked kind of square/rectangle shape. Once we turned left to go down the street it started flashing its red light faster then kind of looked a bit oval as it flew off in the same direction as us in the distance. Then it disappeared. Not sure what to make out of it but it certainly didn't look or act like an airplane or a satellite.

Seen 3 objects in the sky at first glance we thought they were stars but then we noticed that they had lights going in a vertical line first being red second green and last one blue they stayed in the same spot for hours 2 nights in a row. And they did not move like how the stars and the moon does throughout the night.

I was walking my 12 year old daughter to school today, october 24, 2014, at 8:20 am. A glint in the sky caught my eye. the sun was shining on it so it was pretty bright, metallic and it was sort of like d6 in this picture http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6bVMndpzt5c/UXiyzdXObWI/AAAAAAAAOaY/atwoxfmGOjk/s320/UFO-shapes-chart-witnessed-anti-gravity.jpg It wasn't going fast, it wasn't super high in the sky (measuring with my fingures it seemed to be 1/4 to 1/2 an inch) for sure in the Troposphere, it wasn't leaving any trails as other planes flying around at the time were and there was no sound as they passed when a few other planes passed by i could hear them. I knew it wasn't a "normal" plane because it kept stopping and starting in mid air and then it disappeared. First sighting lasted a few minutes. Second and third were about a minute. Both my daughter and I were witness to this occurance. took a quick video but it is very blurry and shakey. I'm an average 36 year old female. warehouse worker. Have seen one other ufo in ottawa 20 years ago. My daughter is a normal 12 yo girl

My fiancée and I while driving south on the 416 towards the 401 at around 6:55pm we saw a bright light in the sky that seemed to fade slowly in and out. We soon noticed a lights to both the left and the right of it that also faded in and out. This drew our attention to the sky. Around 5 minutes later we witnessed a spectacle of many lights in a row. There was 2 definitive sections of lights 7-10 in each strand with one light in each section continually brighter and producing a strobe effect. During this there were numerous single lights within the same area fade in and our appearing in drastically different areas. This lasted for around 20 seconds and the everything disappeared. It all appeared at about a 45 degree angle in the sky... an unbelievable experience

My husband walk up about 3 am and looked through the window toward the East. He noticed triangular or oval shape object, stationary with many tiny lights on the outline, blinking and changing colour. My husband is a professional engineer, corporate director, solid ethics. He remembers blue and red for sure. The lights were pulsating quickly. He taught "that's strange", then went to the washroom, when he came back, the object was still there hanging above the tree line, not moving. He observed it for couple of minutes than just went to bed (!!!) He does not believe in UFO, he is even annoyed if I bring up this topic. I was floored by his indifference to the event and was deeply disappointed that he didn't wake me up. I have binoculars always ready, so I could check it up. Funny thing, before going to bed I went on the balcony and looked at the beautiful clear sky full of stars and said to myself : "why don't you guys show yourself" ...thinking about UFO of course. I had never seen anything interesting. I remember that the same night I was waken up because my husband was screaming while asleep so I tough he had a nightmare. I didn't check what time it was. I could send a sketch as pdf by e-mail if you are interested. I wonder if somebody else could see it, but it would be unlikely, as there is no much traffic at this early hour. Living near the airport for many years we know how airplane lights look like. By his account, it wasn't an airplane. I listen to Coast to Coast every day and love to hear your UFO updates on the air. Best Regards, Iwona

Looking NE from Dunnville, Ontario.--Bright flashing white with red and possibly blue lights. Moving up and down, stays still then side to side, then will drop fast, very strange moving. When I first saw it I thought it was a star exploding with all the red and white flashing. Also goes fast up and down. Very odd moving now going faster. NOTE - looked at time was 2:09, looked back few seconds later and one clock said 2:08 after I seem 2:09. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Saskatoon (Canada), SK · Canada
I was leaving the house at about 9:25 this evening to pick up my spouse from an appointment. As I was locking the back door a bright flash of light caught my eye in the northern sky. I turned to look to see what it was. About 15 seconds later, it flashed again. It was about 15 degrees above the horizon, about 5 or 10 degrees west of due north, between two closely spaced pine trees in a neighbor's yard that I could use for reference. After about 40 seconds, it flashed again (I was counting off the seconds to myself). I could not discern that it had moved at all in that time. About 15 seconds later, it flashed again. Immediately after that, another bright light flashed to the east. It was about 20 or 25 degrees above the horizon, and about 5 or 10 degrees east of due north, between two tall pine trees that I could use for reference. In fact, I would say that it was in almost exactly the same location as a similar flashing light I reported to NUFORC in 2008. The first light flashed again about 40 seconds after its last flash, and the light to the east immediately flashed again. I watched for another couple of minutes or so. The one on the left seemed to flash at 15-40-15-40 second intervals; the one on the right at 40 second intervals. Both lights had not changed their positions in that time, as near as I could tell. After a minute or so, I could hear a high flying jet aircraft. I looked high to the northeast and could see an airliner traveling a familiar flight path, typical of commercial flights between central or eastern Canada and Edmonton International Airport. It was about 60-70 degrees up and northeast of my position. I could clearly see that it was a commercial flight, as I have seen many on this route. The navigation lights were flashing regularly and could be clearly seen. It was then that it occurred to me that the other flashing lights were much brighter, easily 3 or 4 orders of magnitude brighter than the airliner. In total, I may have watched the lights flashing for four or five minutes, and then had to leave to meet my spouse. I mentioned this to my spouse, and when we returned home, about 9:50 p.m., we watched the northern sky for about two minutes, but did not see the lights. I considered whether the lights might belong to aircraft. I have never seen commercial flights in the direction of the first light. It is too far north and west. However, it is possible that military traffic from Cold Lake, Alberta, could be in that area, en-route to eastern Canada or overseas (the CF-18s assigned to the current missions in eastern Europe and the Middle East are stationed in Cold Lake). The other light, to the east, may have coincided with commercial traffic on a Great Circle route between western cities in the USA and Europe. It's possible that I was seeing the navigation lights at the rear of various aircraft, but I've never seen any aircraft lights as bright as what I was seeing tonight, especially if (being perceptually closer to the horizon) they were a long distance away. But that doesn't explain why the lights did not appear to change position in the time I was watching.

Halifax (Canada), NS · Canada
It was just about twilight hour, however not dark enough to see any stars yet. I was walking on Bayer’s road near Joseph Howe when I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. I looked up to see a small bright red light in the sky. It was stationary and was surrounded by a larger bright blue/purplish ring. It almost appeared like a halo around the smaller light. Both light sources were constant and not blinking. It stood still and made no noise. After about a minute it started to move very slowly in an almost fluid motion that didn’t have any real pattern. It started going left then turned around and went right, then up and down and then spun around in almost a circle. At certain moments between changing directions it would stay stationary for a few seconds. As it started to go right one last time, the halo disappeared and the light turned to blue before it faded and disappeared. Then very quickly it appeared once as a bright red light with the halo bef! ore it blinked and disappeared. I stayed around for a few minutes and walked around but didn’t see it again. The entire experience lasted about 2-3 minutes. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I moved to Edmonton three and a half years on November 1. I lived across the road to a macs convience store as well as a pizza hut and subway. My boyfriend was away for work so i was going to go grab some wine at the liquor store down the road, but was going to grab some smokes first. As i walked out of tthe store, i headed around the building to go towards the liquor store. I suddenly heard this sound like a planee was about to crash on me, so loud i plugged my ears. I looked up and nothing was there, as well as behind me. I kept starring at the sky with my ears plugged and didn't know where it was coming from. Then in my vision above me appeared this giantic ship. It covered the entire sky. There were no lights and it was very faint, but enoiugh to make it out. It then took off so fast and vanished in the distance. I ended up throwing up because i couldnt believe it. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Havelock (Canada), ON · Canada
This was a Saturday night at around 9:30 P.M. Perfectly clear sky. No wind at all. I was out making a fire near the water on Belmont Lake near Havelock, Ontario. Finally got it going nicely and did hear fireworks now and then, but they were the cracker type, not the kind that explode in the air. I sat down facing the west and saw a red light through the trees but the light was much farther away than the trees. The tree had dropped most of its leaves so I could easier see through it. I saw this light coming over a cottage about 500 yards away from the west from up on the main road. It was not travelling very fast, so I went to the cottage to get the other person to look at this light. The other person said it is just an aircraft. I said it is one constant bright color of red, no noise, it is not a plane it is not blinking and is not high in the sky like all other planes and there is no wind for it to be a balloon and it is to bright red. It is not fireworks, because the light is constant. The red light was moving toward the South East, and never varied in height. Then it went out of site, miles away. There was only one bright red light. The light was lot bigger than the normal air craft lights and was closer to the earth. I had a clear view nothing impeded it. The object did not leave any vapour trail.

Gull Lake (Canada), SK · Canada
We were driving south from Gull Lake towards Shaunavon, SK, at 6pm yesterday. It was a beautiful sunny evening with several long thin darkish clouds in the sky to our left and right and one long thin lighter grey one at about 5000 feet straight ahead of us. About 2 miles south of Gull Lake, we noticed a brilliantly shining ball flying north to south and go into the cloud that was ahead of us. The orb shone as if made of highly polished aluminum. You couldn't look at it for more than a second at a time or it hurt your eyes. It entered the darkest part of the cloud at the middle of the left side. With the cloud being so thin, we watched for the orb to exit the cloud, but it didn't. We watched that cloud for the entire half hour drive south into Shaunavon. We watched as it slowly dissipated and we were directly under the cloud fragments by the time we reached Shaunavon. Neither of us saw the orb again.

My wife was driving home and I was in the passenger seat. Stopped at the front of a red light with no cars behind us we were both quiet not saying anything. Then all of the sudden a bright white light appeared at the top of the atmosphere and seemed to plummet very fast towards earth, leaving a light trail for the split second that the light was visible. We only seen the light trail for a very short distance as the light appeared from nothing then trailed very fast downwards for a half a second before disappearing from sight. Judging from the distance we were from the light the light seemed like it was fairly large lit up area. The skys were clear with some stars visible. I commented something along the lines of "what the heck!? did you see that?" and my wife just as shocked as me agreed that she had seen the light as well. My assumptions would be that it was a meteorite, but it could of been anything.

Maple Ridge (Canada), BC · Canada
This was just a red light that pulsed. At one point it seemed to hover what might be over Vancouver area. Then it seemed to keep heading west, out to sea. I got out my binoculars to inspect it, to see if I could see any other lights, like maybe those of a plane, the other plane lights being white and red blinking with a constant white are red. There was no other lights and no other shape that I could see through the binoculars, just that red pulsing orb. It was pretty cool. Also, I can hear the sound of the planes as they pass by, overhead, and I couldn't hear any sound attached to this red orb. The other kind of interesting thing, was the size of it. The red light seemed so much bigger than the lights on the airplanes that pass by. The orb itself, was not larger than the airplanes that pass by, just the lights were noticeably different size.

the next day i saw this ufo beeing shot by a laser beam coming out of space I was outside the city looking in the sky a lot and brought my camera trying to catch something I did in fact saw lot of military plane jet and helicopter all searching it seem in the same are I saw these 3 orb in formation. They were going near cloud and seem to be hiding in it and popping out.I kept looking and I saw 2 other really close to a commercial airplane that was taking off at the airpot near the cn tower. Those i wasnt able to catch them on camera but right after this, I caught on camera what seem to be 3 orbsI look at my video more carefully and i could spot 2 other moving really fast around the 3 that i clearly saw. I find strange all those activity i been seeing Is happening right at the moment of the blood moon. The blood moon also was really creepy to look at at night and had this strange halo of light really huge like a lense covering earth.

I first saw a light appearing of out of nowhere over the CN tower very high in the sky and as it appear to come down closer to earth a big flash happen on the craft exactly like if it was a falcon millenium reactor's back slowing down the craft. As I saw this happening a huge fiery laser coming out of the atmosphere nowhere try hitting the craft but misses it and the craft disappear right after the laser shoted. Lasted about 5 sec the whole event. I saw 1 min after 1 light coming out of the emplacement it disappear and another light right after. These 2 lights then when in the direction of the great lakes. I kept watching and 20 minute after I saw a flash of light that appear and disappear after.

Not really sure what I saw happening, but I saw 4 un-marked black helicopters following a craft of some kind. Didn't look like another helicopter or airplane that the helicopters were chasing or following. It really struck me as odd. It was the middle of the afternoon, a clear day. I watched the activity until all of the helicopters disappeared behind a hillside covered with trees. I was at sea level, so I lost sight of everything. Could have been nothing, but didn't look normal.

Nanaimo (Canada), BC · Canada
UFO Sighting Sept. 28/2014/21:00-22:45 NANAIMO, BC. I had turned off the TV at 9:00, and before showering, decided to look out at the night sky. I noted a particularly bright star in the n/e section of the sky above the harbor and the Strait of Georgia. As I looked at it, it began to change color. I assumed it to be caused by atmospheric conditions. Then I saw red and green lights flash, and I assumed it was an airplane probably about to turn about to head toward Vancouver Intl. airport. But then I also saw blue and yellow moving lights. At that I thought it might be a UFO. So I went to get binoculars and said to my partner, “I think I see a UFO in the sky”. My partner said, “It’s probably a star.” Then with the binocular I saw a small circle of flashing lights. Again my partner said, “Ah, just a star”, as I continued watching. The lights began moving quickly, and the source was moving about as well; it was obviously not an airplane or a star. I noticed another possible same thing lower in the sky on the left, and 3 other ! possible shapes in a kind of triangular shape in the lower right side which my partner confirmed. My main focus though was on the first object (?) that I saw. Then the object grew in size, or appeared to, probably moving closer. Then I called my partner to come and see, with binoculars. Before he got there, the object suddenly became ovoid in shape and I realized that it was heading toward me. Suddenly it stopped, and “flipped”, apparently on its side, showing the full surface of what was probably the top side. I yelled at my partner to hurry up. The side or top was almost perfectly circular but the top edge was slightly flattened, and the lights appeared to be on the outer edges. However, the flashing moved across the surface in different ways, as in forming patterns. The surface was covered with an irregular grid. Visually, my partner and I both watching, the object now almost completely filled the visual field of our binoculars, which meant – we assumed- that it had come! much closer to us than originally. After several minutes of w! atching the flashing lights moving about the surface, the object appeared to be moving backwards in a straight line to where it was before. But it then began moving about in a display of aerial acrobatics and movements that nothing we know of could make in the air. The movements were up/down, side to side, twirls, spirals, fast threads up or down or sideways or just about all over the place. Gradually, though, it settled back down and seemed to climb higher in the sky and become smaller to the sight. We then noticed the other lights below and on the sides had disappeared. There was some thin cloud moving about in the atmosphere, but it was otherwise quite clear during the time we were watching this wonderful aerial show. However, the “close up” was quite unsettling, especially in its implications as to size, etc. and in regard to the possible meaning of this sighting. It appeared to us that it might somehow have known we were watching it! Not that we can prove that, however, but when it flipped on its side for the full view, the hair on my neck stood up! As a professional social scientist, I am a relatively trained observer, and somewhat used to seeing anomalous phenomena. Nonetheless this was an amazing event.

At approximately 22:35 on Saturday, September 27, 2014 my son – who is 15 (a high-school student) and myself – I am 50 (an electrician by trade)- saw an odd object in the sky of South Brampton. There is an airport nearby – Pearson International – and many planes fly in this vicinity day and night. I've seen many interesting things above my house in the past few years. I've seen satellites fly over head; meteors, airplanes and unidentifiable object on occasion. This one was most definitely a UFO. From where; I have no idea. I was standing in my driveway and looking at the sky – as I often do – and noticed a blurry object I thought might be a star. As I continued looking; I was certain it was moving in my direction. I watched for about 30 seconds and ran inside the house to tell my son and get my binoculars. My son joined me outside and I pointed the object out to him. It was now approaching us and nearing the overhead position. We both looked at it with the binoculars. Neither of us could clearly focus on it. Either with the binoculars or naked eyes; the object looked blurry. It was rather dim – no bright lights. The dim lights were impossible to focus clearly-on. They were a dull grey colour and changed to a very dark, dim red on occasion. It looked like there were perhaps 3 to 5 different lights; but they may have been part of a single or several objects clumped together. This object – or tight group of objects – appeared to change shape from circular to triangular with no definite shape at any given time We watched this for at least 2 minutes with naked eyes and binoculars. It was moving from the East South East direction to the West, North-West direction initially and turned pretty well due West near the end of when we could still see it. It faded and was no longer visible as it – at the end of the observation – was heading West towards the town of Georgetown.

fiance was outside smoking a cigarette, looked up at the stars and noticed an object floating with multi colour lights, at first glance she thought it was a star and then noticed it ws to bright and then started moving from right to left and appeared to becoming closer, first she steadied herself against a wall to ensure it wasnt just her moving and that it was the object moving, then she came inside and got me and i went out with the iphone. once i came outside i noticed a circular object floating with many colours, red blue green and white lights, then it got foggy really fast, faster than usual and we could still see the object because of the brightness and then it dissaperead into the fog or clouds... it seemed like it was unusually high to be fog and wehn i first arrived it was a clear night and you could see the stars.
