Location: Hauraki Gulf From Tiri Island, off Aukland, New Zealand
Date: 1975 ?
Time: About 10:00 - 11:00 p.m.
I'm interested in the sighting of a UFO in 1975 at sea off Auckland. I witnessed something similar about this time. I saw a UFO that flew across the Hauraki Gulf from Tiri Island direction going in front of Rangitoto Island towards Auckland city. Then all of a sudden it changed direction and headed behind Rangitoto or in that direction ( could have been towards Waiheke Is) but in that general direction. I would describe the UFO like the one in the sighting as above (1975) by the seaman on his ship. Is there anymore information on this sighting? Please let me know.
Additional Information: All I can remember is what I said except there were some friends with me and they saw it too. We were at Waiake Beach, Torbay, Auckland. We were sitting there talking and watching the city lights. It was about 10:00 - 11:00 pm at night when we saw what I described to you. It was the same description as the seaman's and I was wondering if it could be the same one. I always thought people would not believe me so nothing was really said. At this time I was a teenager. I remember this thing (UFO) being a cigar shape but could have been a long saucer shape it was bright white with red, blue & green rotating lights going around the bottom of the ship, it moved fairly slowly with no noise that we could hear but when it change direction it was lighting fast & made you wonder if it was really real. That's all I can remember. Thank you for listening.
The witness is referring to a sighting we received and this report can be read on the site at:

Location: Temecula, California
Date: October 21, 1994
Time: 4:00 a.m.
It was October 21, 1994 at 4:00 am. As I was driving on hwy 15 south from Temecula, California. I spotted something hovering over an upcoming hill top. It was as if when I made the top of the next hill we spotted each other simultaneously i.e. the craft and me. When I passed the craft I saw the following. A dome/saucer shaped object was hovering over a cell phone tower with multiple antennae. A distinct light blue light was shinning down. The craft itself was 40-50 feet in diameter and had various polygon shapes over the exterior of the ship. As I have heard many times before, it looked to me be manufactured off planet. The crazy thing is, I did not stop to observe it. It was my birthday and I was intent on getting to the office early as I was playing golf at noon. I did not believe or disbelieve at the time but I cannot believe I did not stop to watch this thing. One more thing, my serpentine belt in my van snapped as I entered the driveway at the office parking lot. I think about this experience almost every day. I've had 2 more sightings but this one is the most impressive.

Location: Driving west on Hwy 152 towards Los Banos, CA
Date: Sunday, August 28, 2005 11:15 A.M.
HBCC UFO Research Note: Kim and Sylvia McKelvey would like to know if anyone also witnessed these objects on the date given in their report. If so would you please contact me so I can pass the information along to these folks. Thank you, Brian Vike
Sylvia McKelvey's Report:
Sunny morning, clear sky, no clouds, hot weather, approximately 100 degrees F. Terrain: Large agricultural area. Miles of flat farmland, in all directions. No nearby hills or mountains.
We were returning from a weekend trip to Oakhurst, CA. We turned of off Hwy 99 and on to Hwy 152 heading W towards Los Banos. My husband Kim was driving and I was in the passenger seat of our GMC Yukon. I was looking out my window to my right and spotted what I thought was a large commercial airliner going west, I am guessing at an altitude of approximately 15,000. As I continued to watch the plane, which was keeping pace with our car, it completely disappeared from sight. I thought that it was strange and mentioned what happened to Kim and we both looked to see if it was still somewhere around us. Neither of us could find it and we dropped the discussion all together.
About 10 minutes later, again to the right side of the road, over a vacant field I saw a large cluster of grayish white orbs floating in unison at about 1,000 feet up. I immediately motioned to Kim to pull the car over to take a look. At first sight they appeared to me to be almost horizontally elliptical in shape, like a football, with small black areas on the ends. They then appeared to rotate upward and became round – orb like. We counted 12 orbs in this group, which appeared the size of white aspirins from our distance. As we continued to watch them, the grayish white orbs flowed back and forth and up and down and some rotated around each other. They came together in a tight group and then stretched out horizontally distancing themselves from each other as they continued to bob up and down. At times a group of 5 orbs would rotate upward while the other 5 moved in a down direction and then they would come together.
With your arm extended strait and upward the group was the size of a fist. They appeared to come closer to us and then back away, in what we estimated was approximately 200 to 500 feet from our car. I grabbed my small Nikon Cool Pix digital camera in hopes of capturing something on film. I was still in the passenger seat with my window down. Kim had gotten out of the car and came around to my side. While we continued to watch, I saw something that appeared to whip out behind the cluster. In what I can only describe as a gray/ white cloud “puffing” from out of the atmosphere and into sight, a cloud like object appeared to the right of the cluster and began to come directly towards us. We estimated it was less than 1,000 feet high and it too was the size of a fist with arm extended. The object moved very quickly and stopped and changed direction as it continued to come towards us. As it came directly over us it moved in almost humming bird fashion with 3 stinted moves over our heads. As I looked up under the object, which now looked like a white elongated cloud, it appeared to be somewhat transparent, yet it had form and I could see something that resembled a fine black colored grid or spine of some sort in its middle. Kim thought it looked like an ameba with a tail.
Or something like a jellyfish. It passed over us and then it accelerated at great speed out of our sight. We then turned our attention back to the orb cluster, which was beginning to move away from us to the North. As I watched the orbs formed in a straight line, resembling a string of pearls with the ends turned up resembling a semi-circle. They then disappeared into the sky. In all this we were not able to hear any sound coming from them due to the fact Hwy 152 is very busy and the noise of traffic passing behind us was constant. We do not know if anyone else driving saw this object, but certainly no one else pulled over.
I was able to snap five pictures. Two of the pictures captured the objects. One picture was of the orbs and the second was of the cloud like object coming towards us. Obviously, we were highly excited about this sighting and actually was surprised that we felt no fear at all, only amazement and awe. Yet there was more to come.
Sunday, August 28, 2005 12:40 P.M. Conditions: As above. Terrain: Winding mountainous freeway. Duration: Driver 15 seconds, passenger 1 minute.
After the sighting, our thoughts and continued our drive into Los Banos, where we stopped for lunch and made notes about what we had seen. We were in Los Banos for about an hour and then we got back on Hwy 152 going west towards San Jose. I was in the passenger seat once again and Kim was driving. Hwy 152 goes along one side of the San Luis Reservoir and through Pacheco Pass in the mountains. As we began to climb and go around the mountain curves I again was looking out the right window. I caught sight of a commercial airliner traveling west over the pass. As I looked at the airliner I was amazed to see that the plane was not alone! There were two large white orbs keeping pace with the plane. One was under the bottom of the plane and to the rear, and the other was above the tail section. I pointed once again for Kim to look, and Kim leaned forward to see the same objects following the plane and keeping pace with it. We were stunned that we were having another orb sighting, especially so soon after the first. In reference to size, the Orbs appeared to approximately, 1/5 the size of the tail rudder and were completely round, and again grayish white.
We estimated the plane to be at approximately 10,000 feet as it appeared to be on approach to the airport and was fairly easy to see. One orb stayed below the plane and to the rear, while the other orb bobbed up and down and side-to-side over the tail section. I don’t believe the pilots or passengers could see the objects as they were at the rear of the plane. We were only able to observe the plane and objects for about a minute until it cleared the mountains and out of our sight.
Kim's McKelvey's Report:
August 28, 2005 11:15am Sunny day no clouds with visibility at least 30 miles, around 100 degrees F. Location: West bound on Hwy 152 twenty miles east of Los Banos California a busy highway with lots of traffic that day. Terrain: Flat open central valley farm land. No nearby hills or mountains.
While returning from a trip to Oakhurst California we were driving west on Hwy 152 twenty miles east of Los Banos California when Sylvia noticed a small whitish cylindrical object in the sky. As she was watching it, it disappeared before her eyes. At that time I was told of the observation and we discussed it in some detail. About ten minutes later she reported to me that there was a cluster of orbs in the sky so I pulled the car over got out and went to the passenger side where I saw a slow moving cluster of what looked like orbs with dark centers moving south in our direction. I noticed a single object moving towards us that first looked like a foot ball shaped object grey/white in color and seemed translucent. It was as big as your thumb held at arms length. Sylvia saw it leave the cluster changed shape and as it passed overhead it looked like an ameba with a slight tail. The object was grey/white in color and appeared to be translucent like a jelly fish. As it passed overhead I was looking through some power lines and thought it was around 1000 feet but I really had no reference as to how large it really was. As I was looking strait up It accelerated suddenly to a high speed and I lost it in the glare of the sun.
By this time the remaining cluster, which was coming in our direction, had reversed direction and moved off to the north where it disappeared. We were able to get one digital picture of the cluster and one of the overhead object however it was out of focus. The cluster was about the size of your fist held at arms length.
August 28, 2005 12:40PM Conditions same as above. Terrain: winding mountainous freeway. Duration: Driver 15 seconds, passenger 1 minute.
After stopping for lunch in Los Banos we traveled another 40 miles on Hwy 152 towards Gilroy California. Sylvia noticed an airliner that had two small spheres following it. I looked out the windshield and saw clearly that an airliner had two spheres moving up and down behind the carrier. Since we were now in a small mountain range it was difficult to pull over. Once I was able to pull over and stop the plane and objects quickly disappeared behind a hill. We continued on our way and no longer saw the trio. The airliner was about 45 degrees up and looked like an MD11?. Your pinky held at arms length would just cover the trio. The spheres were grey color similar to the planes. The plane was estimated to be at 10,000 feet altitude since it was fairly easy to see.

Location: Loughton Essex , U.K.
Date: September 10, 2005
Time: Around 8:30/ 8.45 p.m.
I was on the net checking to see if others had witnessed the 3 strange like orange orbs which I, my Husband and neighbours saw on the 10th September this year (2005). I found your site and would like to give you an account of what we saw that evening.
My Husband and I were in our garden around 8.30/ 8.45pm on Saturday 10th September 2005 when my husband shouted "look at them 3 strange orange orb lights in the sky" we ran to the front of our property and called our neighbours out to look. My husband has a digital camera with quite a good zoom so he ran in to get it. The orb shaped objects were in a triangle formation and then they broke away and 2 of them followed the 1st one quite closely. They seemed to hover without any sound whatsoever we stood in complete amazement. We live in Loughton Essex in the UK and are quite near to Stansted Airport but my husband said this wasn't any type of aircraft as they were flying at the same height and very close to one another. The sky was quite cloudy and after about 30 minutes or so they disappeared but returned around 9.45 pm. My husband took digital pictures and downloaded them onto our computer. The pictures didn't show the UFO as orb shaped but as like what we describe "jelly fish" the pictures are the zoomed in version and as they were moving fast they show completely identical formations. We have the pictures and can email them to you if you require you are more than welcome. I stood in amazement that night and wonder if I will ever witness anything so strange again in my lifetime.
Location: Guaynabo, Puerto Rico
Date: September 14, 2005
Time: Approx: 7:06 a.m.
I just read the news about the Vancouver sighting on September 14th reported on the Rense website. I live in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico and this morning at about 7:06 am I saw a cigar shaped UFO traveling South which resembled the shape of the Vancouver sighting. It was the size of a commercial jet. I thought it could’ve been an airplane, but there were no wings. The color of the craft was of a polished silver when the sun’s light was reflected. The sighting lasted for approximately between 15 to 20 seconds before I lost sight of the craft when it crossed through huge cumulus clouds.
Location: Colfax, Wisconsin
Date: September 18, 2005
Time: Approx: 10:30 p.m.
Last night I looked out my window, I should know better at this point, and saw this object that I have seen now for many days. Each night it crosses the sky slowly. Last night, I looked out the window and saw again, an object with flashing lights, approx 45 degrees off the horizon. The main object seemed to be flashing multi colored lights, and it's form at least initially was difficult to determine. Arcs of light radiated from this object into other areas of the sky, with what appeared to be a smaller reddish object flashing off to the right side of the main object. Around the flashing red object, bright spirals of light were visible as well as intermittent arcs of light that went between that object and the main object. Some of the light forms appeared as if someone had a sparkler on the fourth of July and was waving it in the air in circles. I watched for a while, and decided I was going to just pretend this thing was not there.
I have been nursing my dog Boo all week who suddenly came down with a rapid onset of cancer after my earlier report to you. This has kept me up late every night for the last several weeks and also walking outside a lot at night with her to help her cope with her pain and my sadness at losing her. I thought I would just stay put last night because she has been so sick. I was ready to lay down when I took one last look and that is when I saw this object, the main one, almost appear as if it had hit some kind of power-line. I saw a huge arc of light into the air and that was that. The investigator in me took over. I decided to get in the car, cause I want some answers.
I took my digital pocket camera, which wouldn't work cause of the light level, being low, or maybe it is just my darn ignorance of cameras to begin with. I went out of town on the river road we call it, it winds alongside the Red Cedar river and a series of farms. I was out about four miles, and the object slowly followed my car, and I flashed my lights. I noticed almost a haze in front of it, and it appeared to be a triangular shape, but it also appeared to split, the back end of the triangle seemed to separate from the front and then I would see what I can only describe as almost a heat effect that would blur the main object, you know how things are blurred behind a jet engine by the release of the power, the mirage effect it gives off. That is what I saw. This thing, had it been a plane, would have been long gone, but it seemed to intelligently follow me, at times it was stationary over the tree tops. I pulled over several times, watching this object. I tried to take some pictures with my camera, but there was not enough light and it didn't work. And unfortunately, a new camera is not in my budget this month. But I did flash my car lights intermittently. stopping and moving when the object did. (i.e.in the back of my mind, I thought, this is so NUTS!) This thing was quiet, no noise. Just quiet moving across the sky.
This was no plane, believe me. I ended up going out on 170 towards Wheeler and then I could not see the thing. I pulled off on a side road and opened up my sunroof and just as I did this bright ball of light shot from above off to the side of my car, perhaps 20 feet away from my car. Scared me to death Brian, to say the least. I looked to see if I could see any light where the object would have landed, and I was going to go out there today and see if I could possibly walk through that area. However, today I had to put my dog Boo to sleep and that was the most important thing on the list to do and to do right. I have no idea what is going on here. I am seeking some advice from some other well known people for photographic assistance, because the level of activity here is high. What do you recommend that I have to take a picture at night Brian? I just have to get pictures of this thing.
It amazes me that nobody else has taken notice of this. However, given my past love of astronomy and that outdoors I guess I pay more attention to the sky, because it is so amazing to me. I did check Night Sky Live, the Sky and Telescope Magazine for planetary positions and anomalous activity in this area that could have explained away this thing. However, given my coordinates here I could not find anything there that would explain what I saw. And so it goes, I just don't have a clue what this is. But it is something. The question is what?

I will send you this Photo of the Cityscape from Frankfurt Germany. On the 18th of September we had a trip in to the nearest Forrest and I've made some shots from Frankfurt. Today when I took a look I found a kind of Spot or something which I can't explain, you can see it in front of the cloud in the middle left over the Maintower.
