CHINA UFO VISIT
SHANGHAI (Reuters) - Shanghai appeared convinced on Friday December 3,
1999, that an unidentified flying object had visited China's commercial
capital.
Usually staid official newspapers insisted Thursday's UFO sighting was no
vision. "UFO darts across the city's skyline," screamed a headline in the
official Shanghai Daily. "UFO appears in the sky over Shanghai," the Wenhui
Daily said in a front page story with color photographs.
Nearly 100 people claimed to have seen a cylindrical object with a flaming
orange tail moving over the western part of the city for about an hour on
Thursday afternoon, the newspapers said. They offered no theories on what it
might have been.
The Chinese government is very sensitive to UFO reports because the outlawed
Falun Gong are believers in the phenomenon and extraterrestrial. Thousands of
the groups leaders have been arrested across China. Only the several million
Christians imprisoned by the government exceed the persecution of the Falun
Gong.

Thousands saw a UFO in Papua New Guinea.
PACIFIC ISLANDS REPORT
Pacific Islands Development Program/East-West Center Center for Pacific
Islands Studies/University of Hawaii at Manoa
PORT MORESBY, Papua New Guinea (November 11, 1999 - Post-Courier) - It was
about 200 meters (660 feet) long, 50 meters (165 feet) wide and was lit up
like a city in the sky.
It moved very slowly across the sky, making a quiet puffing noise.
This is the description of what thousands of people on the Gazelle
Peninsula of East New Britain saw in the sky over the weekend.
The people of the remote Bainingo ranges, cut off from television and
anything else that is modern, possibly had the best description.
They say a craft, which had huge lumps on the sides with light flickering
around it.
Some Bainingos said the object was lit up all around like a red-hot stone
in an oven pit.
But what they saw was exactly what others on the Gazelle Peninsula
witnessed on the same night, Thursday, November 4.
The people who saw the flying craft concluded that they were witnessing a
spacecraft from another planet.
On other parts of the province, similar sightings were made, although their
descriptions were slightly different. Over on Duke of York Islands those
living on the island closest to New Ireland Province reported seeing a huge
craft hovering just meters above the seas off St George Channel, and
traveling at a very slow speed.
They claimed they saw other smaller crafts with bright lights circulating
the bigger craft in a playful manner.
They claimed they watched the craft until it disappeared over the high
mountains in New Ireland.
At Rangulit village, in the Baining area, on the same night, naturalized
citizen John Berenti of Namatanai in New Ireland, and his family were sitting
on the verandahs of their home when, all of a sudden, a huge craft appeared
just above the top of the mango trees.
"It was so big, about 200 meters (660 feet) to 300 meters (990 feet) long,
and 50 meters (165 feet) wide.
"It was moving very, very slowly across the sky and was lit up like a
shooting star and it had two very bright lights at the tail.
"We honestly did not know what it was, but it certainly wasn?t an
aircraft," Mr. Berenti said.
"It was traveling too slow, far too slow.
"It did not make any loud sound, just a quite puffing sound as it glided
gracefully over the tree tops," he said.
Mr. Berenti said his entire family saw the craft.
He said the people who lived there, who saw the craft, lit handheld fires
and chased after the craft, wanting to see where it would go.
Mr. Berenti said he had never seen anything like it and he was troubled by
it.
"It cannot be associated with anything on this planet."
He considered that the bright glow around the craft was its magnetic field,
keeping the force of gravity away."
About 50 kilometers (30 miles) across the sea from Lassul Baining, Police
Officer Raymond Theodore was sitting under his house along Vuvu Beach, North
Coast of Rabaul, around 8:30 p.m. when he noticed what looked to be a huge
craft traveling just meters above the seas.
"First I thought it was a ship but then we saw it travel over Waton
Island."
"It had very bright lights at the back as it moved along, but it made no
sound," he said.
Others who saw the craft gave similar accounts.

"Object flies over Papua New Guinea"
PORT MORESBY, Papua New Guinea - Residents in several parts of East New
Britain province reported seeing an unidentified flying object this week that
was "lit up like a city in the sky" and was "making a quiet puffing noise."
People in the remote Bainingo Mountains, who do not have easy access to
televesion and other electronic media, said the craft looked like a red-hot
stone in an oven pit.
In other parts of the province, similar sightings were made, the Post-
Courier reported.
We honestly did not know what it was, but it certainly wasn't an aircraft.

NEW JERSEY TWO CYLINDERS AND DISC VIDEOTAPED
RARITAN CENTER - Reverend Damian Barna indicates that in using computer
enhancement of his eight minute video tape, he has been able to see small
balls of energy departing from one cylinder shaped UFO. The enhancement
infers that the plasma energy balls are fired between the UFOs as if they
were engaged in an aerial battle only fifteen miles from New York City. An
apparently hostile UFO appears to shoot green plasma charges at other
intruding objects. The craft could also be transferring the plasma energy
from one object to another. The large cylinder shaped UFO is estimated to be
at least a hundred feet long. During the filming the cylinder like cloud
seems to morph or gradually move from one position to another. This may be
part of a cloaking device. Thanks to Rev. Barna who is pastor of the New
Freedom Church. Editor's Note: I have seen video of many cylinder shaped
objects but never one that dissipates on the left (south) of the screen and
rebuilds itself on the right (north) portion. It appears to teleport itself
from one place to the other. The Dead Sea Scrolls, the Bible and many
significant religious writings predict a war between the forces of light and
darkness. Reverend Barna appears to have captured on film amazing evidence of
a pillar or cylinder cloud. The film is being copyrighted but individual
frames can be seen on www.filersfiles.com.
OKLAHOMA CITY UFO ON CBS TELEVISION
Jim Hickman recently interviewed Emmy winner weatherman Gary England,
inventor of the Doppler radar who is his 26th year as Chief Meteorologist at
KWTV. On July 16, 1999, KWTV the CBS affiliate showed film of a UFO taken by
their helicopter crew during the May 3, 1999, tornado. He calls it "The
Unidentified Flying Thing" (UFT). Meteorologist Gary England stated that the
film had been analyzed and the object was indeed unknown. There was other
independent ground observation by two other witnesses. He is also recognized
for his development of First Warning' and 'Storm Tracker' technology -
automated severe weather systems now in use nationwide. Jim Hickman said, "I
think your May 3rd sighting is very important and needs to be fully
investigated, especially since you have both the great video and two
reputable eyewitnesses to back it up." Gary said: "Thanks Jim, as you are
aware, a government employee captured a similar "unknown" object on still
camera near Newcastle, Ok, also on May 3, 1999." Jim stated: "Yes, we have
attempted to contact him. I have found similar objects in my research before,
we have been calling them Roswell Rods for lack of a better name; as you
know, they were first discovered in Roswell, New Mexico back in 1994. Gary:
In fact, when we were showing our tornado video on the air, he is the one
that spotted the "UFT". He came to our station and we went through the video
and found the images he had seen at home on his television. Jim: It's strange
that we are seeing so many unusual objects here in Oklahoma lately. I don't
know if you remember the storm chaser video taken by Lan Lamphere in Loco,
Oklahoma back a few years ago? I was one of the first investigators of that
sighting. He had 3 videos taken of that object. He took one and several
Oklahoma City news crews video-taped the others, including your station. NASA
has studied the video and determined it to be an unknown object flying at
24,000 mph. Gary: Yes, and he had nothing but problems since too! He
presented his May 3 case to scientists at Norman and they declined to
investigate because "before research can begin, there must be a theory" and
no one has any idea what the UFT is. Jim: Maybe we can get the scientific
community interested if enough reputable people come forward and make reports
of what they see. If only the scientists would work with us, we have
theories, years of research, just no answers.

OHIO SPHERE SHAPED CRAFT
LIMA - On November 21, 1999, the witnesses were driving northbound on I-75
towards Lima at mile marker 117, when they saw a sphere shaped craft moving
slowly through a field. It was just east of the highway and low to ground in
swirling fog. The craft was randomly shining a light onto the ground below it
at 1:30 AM. The witness said, "We first noticed the object when we suddenly
saw the ground beneath it light up." The witnesses pulled their car onto the
shoulder of the road and stopped to observe the object. Although, there was
no visible light source on the craft, the ground reflected off it's mirror
like surface when the light was activated. It was difficult to estimate the
exact distance to the craft, but it seemed fairly close. The craft was moving
southbound very slowly. The light would activate randomly and had no
particular pattern or color. The witness stated, "You could detect movement
by the reflection off of the object while the light was on."
When there was no light from the craft you could barely see it due to the
fog. Only a faint outline of the top portion was visible. Traffic was sparse
and other cars/trucks passed, but no one else stopped. After a few minutes
the passenger rolled down his window. We could hear no sounds but could still
see the object. It lit up the trees to the north of us and our parking area.
The lights went off and the object left at a moderate speed north bound over
the tree area it had just lit up. "The fog flowed around the craft as it
moved and that was when we got a good look at it." There were no windows
visible or lights on its smooth and shiny surface. The object then faded out
of view.
COLUMBUS - On November 18, 1999, while on patrol in my police cruiser I
noticed a dark object coming from the east at 1:50 AM. As it grew closer I
noticed it was triangular in shape. It made a banking turn and continued
north and out of sight. I am a police officer for a suburb of Columbus, Ohio.
I had a ride-along passenger, who is a reserve officer for another agency
in the area. We were attempting to find a dark area within the city to
observe the Leonid Meteor Shower as it was a slow night. We stopped the
cruiser, when I noticed an object coming from east to west just west of
downtown Columbus. At first I assumed it was an airplane. I quickly realized
this was not the case. It appeared similar in shape to an F-117 Stealth
Fighter as it approached head-on. I say this because it seemed to have
similar sharp angled features. After watching it for about 7 seconds I told
my partner to get out of the car as I was doing the same. I pointed in it's
direction and said "Do you see that thing?" He too spotted the object just
before it began to make a slow right banking turn. As it turned, it showed
it's underside that had some sort of distortion to it almost as if it were
camouflaged.. It appeared to be an equalateral triangle shape. There were no
flashing lights and absolutely no sound. It appeared to be relatively close
to us. So I tried to shine my spotlight on it to light it up but it was too
far away to be illuminated by it.
We often have the police helicopter fly by and making a comparison the
craft was much larger in size. After completing a 90 degree turn it leveled
off and continued north. It was traveled slower than the helicopter. It just
seemed to glide to the north as a stingray does through the ocean. I called
another officer to meet me and we told him about the incident. I called the
Port Columbus Airport Police and identified myself to them and asked if there
was anyway they could find out if the tower had anything unidentified on
their radar. The dispatcher advised me she'd been in touch with Tracon and
they had nothing unusual on their radar in the time frame I'd reported. I
have seen and F-117 fly and I know they are quite loud. It was close enough
to us that we could distinctly see it's edges and shape although it was not
self-illuminated. I am truly baffled by what we saw.

EVIDENCE FOR LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE CONTINUES TO MOUNT
When President Clinton first came into office, he gave Webb Hubbell one of
his most trusted subordinates a specific request to obtain an answer to the
question, "Are there UFOs?" Hubbell apparently never was given a satisfactory
answer.
On August 5, 1996, President Clinton went on live National Television to
announce that life was found within a meteorite believed to have come from
Mars. Worm like creatures 360 nanometers long were found inside the ancient
artifact. Clinton stated, "I am determined that American Space program will
put its full intellectual power and technological prowess behind the search
for further evidence of life on Mars. If the findings are borne out, it will
surely be one of the most stunning insights into our world that science has
ever uncovered. Its implications are as far reaching and as awe inspiring as
can be imagined." Some of the television footage was used in the Jodie Foster
movie "Contact." The film clip supported the main theme of the movie that we
are in contact with extraterestrials. The White House allowed the clip to be
used in the movie, but did not endorse the main theme. The President seemed
to want to maintain deniability in either direction.
NEW INTELLIGENT SIGNALS FROM SPACE
ARECIBO, PUERTO RICO - Gannett News Service reports that on November 29,
1999, the world's largest radio telescope, picked up what appeared to be an
intelligent signal coming from a small star named HD119850. What's more a
backup telescope at Jodrell Bank near Manchester, England was hearing the
same beacon a clear sign the signal was not from Earth. Astronomer Jill
Tarter 55, is chief scientist with the SETI Institute of Mountain View. Jody
Foster played Jill in the movie "Contact." Other tests were conducted from
the Arecibo control room to determine if the signal coming from 106 trillion
miles away was real. The telescope was moved away from the target star. The
signal vanished and only returned when it was aimed again at the target star.
Editor's Note: The evidence is growing that there is intelligent life out
there. Here's my scientific theory: "If intelligent life exists outside Earth
it is reasonable to assume they could be visiting us?"

UFOs REPORTED IN THREE AUSTRALIAN STATES
On Tuesday, November 23, 1999, at about 9:30 p.m., Australia's National
Space Centre "received a flood of calls...from New South Wales and Victoria
(states) about a cylindrical or missile- shaped object which appeared to
break up."
According to ufologist Ross Dowe of the National Space Centre, "It went
from west to east and there were some strange illuminations behind it."
"They say it was dark grey with some sort of fireball behind and some other
strange reflections in the front, as well." (Many thanks to Ross Dowe for
this report.)
In Victoria state, radio station 3AW stated, "Numerous sightings were
reported at Brisbane and Canberra (Australia's capital - J.T.) and on to
Melbourne."
"A witness stated he saw the object break up into 30 separate objects,
'fly' independently of each other and then 'depart.' The colour of the object
was a red-orange colour and (it) had a flame-like tail." (Many thanks to Todd
Lemire and Errol Bruce-Knapp for this report.)
On Friday, November 26, 1999, a large, bright green UFO composed of four
cylindrical components was sighted at 8:05 p.m. by several witnesses in
Labrador, Queensland, Australia.
A woman named Tracy "observed it for 10 minutes or more. Tracy said that at
first she could see cloud cover and she thought it was a light show" but then
realized that "the object was above the clouds and not a ground-based light
source."
She described the UFO's components as "long tubes like a flouro
(flourescent) light tube," adding, "The tubes were positioned alongisde each
other about 30 centimeters (15 inches) apart. All four tubes moved in the
same direction, easterly out to sea."
"It was astounding. It was fantastic," Tracy reported, "We all stood there,
mouths open, in amazement at what we were looking at."
(Many thanks to Diane Harrison of Australian UFO Research Network for this
report.)
ANOTHER UFO SIGHTING IN SARDINIA
On Saturday, November 27, 1999, at 10:25 p.m., three UFOs passed over the
town of Sorso on Sardinia, a large island in the Mediterranean Sea belonging
to Italy.
Witnesses in Sorso saw "two large pulsating lights of a yellowish-white
color, followed by another flying multicolored light." The slow-moving UFOs
"were seen for several minutes by residents of Sorso. The formation was
moving slowly from west to east, crossing a clear star-filled sky." (Grazie a

PHANTOM DANCERS SEEN BY HUNDREDS IN IRAQ
"Ghost stories are pretty common around the old Iraqi city of Haditha.
Still, when the ghosts start dancing naked in front of oncoming motorists, it
creates quite a stir."
According to the Iraqi weekly newspaper, Al-Alwan, "drivers passing through
the Horan Valley outside the town of Haditha, 135 miles (216 kilometers)
northeast of Baghdad, were reporting that 'ghosts appeared next to the
bridge, naked and doing some acrobatic moves.'"
"The ghosts were causing the drivers to panic, the paper said."
"Alwan quoted motorist Shawki Sabar as saying, 'they were almost human -
although I could not concentrate on their looks because I was so scared and
it was dark.'"
"The ghosts were so lifelike that one motorist thought he'd hit a person
and reported the accident to police." (See the weekly newspaper Al-Alwan for
August 21, 1999. See also the Charlotte, N.C. Observer for August 22, 1999,
"Iraqi drivers see 'dancing ghosts' on road." Many thanks to Lou Farrish of
UFO Newsclipping Service for this news story.) (Editor's Note: Haditha is the
legendary birthplace of Lilitu, the Sumerian goddess of darkness.) (Editor's
Comment: First this, and next that weird 12-hour dance opera planned for the

GIGANTIC UFO SEEN BY THOUSANDS IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC
On Thursday, November 4, 1999, a gigantic UFO was seen by thousands of
people on the large islands of New Britain and New Ireland in the
southwestern Pacific Ocean.
"Thousands in the New Britain region, the Gazelle Peninsula, the remote
Bainingo ranges, the Duke of York Islands, the Baining area,, Vuvu Beach,
north coast of Rabaul and Pilapila currently have apparently witnessed a
large, slow-moving object described variously as a craft...approximately
about 200 metres (660 feet) long, 50 metres (165 feet) wide which was 'lit up
like a city in the sky,' passing slowly across the sky making a quiet puffing
noise' - an airship, perhaps?"
"But other descriptions challenge this possibility. People living in the
Duke of York (island) group close to New Ireland reported seeing a huge craft
hovering just metres above the sea off St. Geroges Channel, and traveling
very slowly. They also reported other smaller craft with bright lights
circling the large one 'in a playful manner.'"
"John Berenti, a family of Namatanal, New Ireland, saw 'a large craft just
above the tops of the mango trees;' he estimated (the UFO to be) 200 metres
(660 feet) to 300 metres (990 feet) long and 50 metres (165 feet) wide."
"Raymond Theodore, a police officer, at about 8:30 p.m. (November 4, 1999)
on Vuvu Beach, north Rabaul coast, saw 'a large craft traveling just metres
above the (ocean) surface and saw it travel over Waton Island. It had very
bright lights on the back as it moved along.'"
"Alex Jame and four other boys returning from Pilapila Community School at
7 p.m. and others saw bright lights approaching. As the UFO approached, Alex
related, 'the streetlights dimmed like when the batteries in a torch
(flashlight in the USA - J.T.) are shot.' He stated (that) it was noiseless,
oblong in shape, bright lights around the edge with top level pyramid with
some lights around it. All white lights."
"The boys said it took 30 minutes to pass them. Alex said when the object
hovered over them, the place around them lit up and they could see people
near them as if it were daylight. It eventually disappeared over the
mountains near Vuvu."
"John McLeod, manager of the Malangan Beach Resort, New Ireland province,
said he watched it and thought it was a satellite re-entry. He seems to be
describing something else entirely."
(See the newspaper Papua New Guinea Post-Courier for November 11, November 12
and November 15, 1999. Many thanks to Errol Bruce-Knapp for forwarding this
newspaper article.)
FISHERMEN VIDEOTAPE UFO IN NEW SOUTH WALES
On Sunday, November 7, 1999, several fishermen videotaped a UFO from their
boat, which was just offshore from Coffs Harbour, New South Wales, Australia.
"Tony Bell, 33, and his colleagues claim to have seen a strange dome-shaped
object when they were about six natuical miles off the New South Wales coast
near Coffs Harbour, north of Sydney."
"'This thing just appeared. It was 100 to 150 feet (30 to 45 meters) up in
the sky,' he said, adding that the object had a bright orange, shiny
appearance and seemed to be coming closer to the two boats the group were
using."
"'It would move closer, then south of us, then move closer again.'"
Grabbing his videocamera, Bell began shooting footage of the UFO. "'It was
a flying ship for sure,' he said, 'You can see clearly from the video that it
was some sort of machine.'"
"The fishermen have sent the video to the Melbourne-based, privately-run
National Space Centre. Operations director Ross Dowe said he was waiting to
examine the footage, adding, 'It was definitely worth looking at.'"
Coffs Harbour, N.S.W. is 400 kilometers (250 miles) north of Sydney.
(Many thanks to Ross Dowe and John Hayes for this report.) (Editor's Note:
Coffs Harbour is also 64 kilometers (40 miles) southeast of Grafton, N.S.W.,
the site of many UFO encounters during the past three years.)
UFOs SIGHTED IN ONTARIO
Canada's Ontario province was the site of three UFO sightings last week.
On Wednesday, November 10, 1999, at 7:10 p.m., Lufthansa Flight 470 was
heading west at 35,000, passing over Springbrook, Ont. (population 15,539)
about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of Lake Simcoe, when the crew reportedly
spotted a UFO.
Camire, 44, who claims to have been a crew member aboard Flight 470,
stated, "We reported the sighting to Toronto Air Traffic Control (ATC)
Centre." Another aircraft "ws about five miles to the right of us and they
reported seeing the light of this object at roughly the same altitude...It
was a very eyecatching sight and nothing we had ever experienced before."
(Many thanks to Ben Field for this report.)
On Wednesday, November 17, 1999, Graham S.D. spotted a UFO he deswcribed as
"an extremely bright orange spitting light" that was "at an altitude of about
100 feet above the water midway between Toronto and Point Credit, Ont.
(population 14,540), moving a little to the left or to the right and changing
colour to a deeply beautiful shade of red."
On Friday, November 19, 1999, at 1:40 a.m., Graham reported, "I was closing
my son's window. He was asleep and the rain was coming in. It (the UFO) was
situated in the northwest sky, and it was a bright as the sun, and this
sucker was moving fast, bright orange," remaining in view for "four to five
seconds" before zipping away.
The UFO "made an aaaaahhh sound, hard to describe but sort of a sigh with a
metallic twang. That would be just about right." (Email Interview)
WOMAN VIDEOTAPES UFO IN NORTHEAST WISCONSIN
On Sunday, November 14, 1999, at 8:12 p.m., the witness, Traci, was at her
home in Stella township, near Rhinelander, Wisconsin, which is located 271
miles (433 kilometers) northwest of Milwaukee, when she spotted an unusual
light in the sky.
"At 8:12 p.m., my husband and I saw a strange light in the sky to the south
of our home. We watched this out our patio window. I grabbed my camcorder and
started taping. I only have a few minutes on tape."
"The light was hovering above the treetops and changing colors, from red to
green to white, then starting the color sequence over again. The light was
slowly moving up, then down, then to the right. I called a friend, and she
came over to the house and also caught this on tape."
(Many thanks to Jim Aho of the W-Files for this report.)
UFOs SPOTTED IN TWO MICHIGAN CITIES
On Tuesday, November 16, 1999, the witness, Justin, spotted a UFO in
Saginaw, Michigan (population 69,100), a city on Interstate Highway I-75
approximately 101 miles (166 kilometers) northwest of Detroit.
"The UFO moved from the west to the east," Justin reported, "It moved
slowly, stopped in mid-air and then moved on. I seen it from a residential
area, but it was hard to tell where it was hovering because of the size and
speed of this thing." He described the UFO as having "three lights with two
right behind them."
"My friends and I were walking down the street, and suddenly we thought
this thing was slowing down. We all stopped to look at the object, and, as we
did, the object started moving about. My friends and I were all afraid of it,
and we began to run toward our homes." (Many thanks to Ben Field for this
report.)
The same night, at about 7 p.m., Paul Williston reported that he "and
several other" motorists were "traveling on U.S. (Route) 131 about twenty
miles north of Grand Rapids, Mich. (population 193,700). It took over 30
seconds to travel about 70 percent (of the sky) to the horizon."
"It had a comet-like appearance with an extremely bright central body and a
very long trailing tail," Williston reported, "It was brilliant emerald green
in color, fading into white as the object began to break up it passed beyond
the eastern horizon, and I lost sight of it."
"The most surprising thing was its very slow, almost controlled flight that
did not seem to decrease in altitude. It really seemed to travel roughly
parallel to the ground, and actually seemed to disappear over the eastern
horizon."
(Many thanks to Steve Wingate of Skywatch International for this news story.)
CIGAR-SHAPED UFO SEEN EAST OF SAN DIEGO
On Thursday, November 11, 1999, two women from Independence, Missouri,
Margie and Donna, were driving west on Highway 8 between San Diego and El
Centro, California (population 31,384) when they saw a metallic silver cigar-
shaped UFO over the mountains.
They were "fifty miles east of San Diego. The elevation was 4,100 feet,"
Margie reported, "We had just passed a sign, so that's how we knew it was the
elevation."
"I was driving and something made me look at the sky in a northwesterly
direction," Margie added, "I was surprised to see something that was clearly
not a plane because it had no wings or tail, no lights and no trail behind
it. It looked like a silver metallic cigar-shaped craft with rounded edges
and was larger at one end (the left, as I looked at it) The object was moving
very slowly from north to south, just above the peak of a mountain. It would
periodically slow down, then speed up."
"I looked at my friend a couple of seconds after I first spotted it.
'Donna, what the heck is that!?' To which she replied that she had no idea
and that she had been watching it for one to one-and-a- half minutes and was
trying to figure this out herself. We both let out a yell. 'Oh, my God! I
think it's a UFO.'"
"At this point, I looked at my watch to verify time, and it said 4:20 p.m.
The sun was setting in the west and caused the craft to shine quite brightly.
We both watched the object for approximately 30 seconds and were discussing
it when it made a 90-degree turn very quickly toward the west, became
transparent and disappeared."

NOAA SATELLITE PICKS UP GIANT UFO IN EARTH ORBIT
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has several
Geosynchronous Orbiting Environmental Satellites (GOES) in orbit watching the
Earth's weather and environment. On November 21, 1999, at 14:45Z hours our
satellites caught an amazing photo of a UFO at an estimated hundred miles
above the Earth off the coast of the state of Washington. Russel Kirchner
phoned to inform me that he had obtained the satellite photos and was sending
them for all to see. The University of Colorado also keeps these photos on
file for reference. One of the satellites is designed to pick up water vapor
or clouds from space. When Russel caught sight of the UFO in the display he
zoomed in and could see the steam coming off a UFO. It was the type we
identify as a large Mother Ship. We discussed the possibility of the object
image being caused by a computer error. Similar photos taken on June 8, 1995,
over South America have also been widely distributed. Philip Imbrogno studied
this case and NOAA explained the image was a "moon shadow UFO." This excuse
will not hold in the latest photos. This UFO was present for only a few
minutes and is not seen in images taken prior or afterwards. The UFO has
structure, windows, and radiates heat in the infrared spectrum.

V-SHAPED UFO SEEN BY A FAMILY IN WEST VIRGINIA
LEWISBURG - November 14, 1999, Michele W. and her children were driving on
Interstate Highway I-64, and, just before reaching Lewisburg, she spotted an
unusual object in the sky. "While traveling on I-64 eastbound, I saw a
quickly moving V-shaped craft fly soundlessly over the road and disappear
over the mountain," Michele reported, "I saw it approaching from the right
side of the south." And by the time I yelled to the kids, 'Do you see what I
see?' it had disappeared over the mountains." "The lights were red and
steady, not blinking," she added, "It seemed like it was flying low, but it
was completely soundless. Did anyone else see this?" (Email Interview)

GEORGIA UFO
WATKINSVILLE - On November 27, 1999, a UFO constantly changed shape and
size and darted to higher altitudes for more than three hours starting around
9:00 PM. Ten friends and family members were camping out and hunting when one
of the family members observed three small lights (green, orange, blue) that
were zig zagging as one. As these lights were moving they eventually came
together and changed into a small shape that was a circle at one end and star
shaped at the other end. The craft appeared to come towards us extremely fast
as a huge spinning rainbow colored ball. While closer to us, it changed back
into the star shape very bright light. It was moving so fast and changing
into so many shapes that it is difficult to accurately explain what was
happening. Everything was caught on videotape.

ALABAMA UFO SIGHTING
BIRMINGHAM - J Vinsant writes, "At about 4:25 A.M. on December 5, 1999, I
woke up to see a bright white light had lit up my entire back yard. I woke my
wife and she also witnessed the light. The light then slowly climbed up my
windows at a very slow pace, as if it were rising from the ground. We then
watched the darkness of our house light up for approximately ten to fifteen
seconds. Just as the light climbed up the window the darkness climbed up it
also. Two minutes later, I heard an explosion that rocked most of Birmingham
and was passed off as a meteor. I live south of Birmingham on a five hundred
acre farm. However, my concern is not the light or the sonic boom. My concern
is the UFO that I witnessed with my wife and her parents. After I heard the
sound I then walked outside and saw an oval/circular shape covered with
lights that was hovering over the mountain. The lights would rotate around
the dish and would flash bright like a light house when they shone in our
direction. We watched for an hour and a half. The UFO flew around and hovered
without making any sound. It would sometimes appear to be one bright light
and sometimes it appeared to be a complete circular saucer.

IS ET CAPTURING OUR MARS SPACECRAFT?
One of the few scientists who ever studied UFOs, was Germany's world-famous
father of rocketry, Professor Hermann Oberth. After three years of studying
the information supplied by his own and other governments, the outspoken
Oberth said at a news conference in 1954: "There is no doubt in my mind that
these objects (UFO's) are interplanetary craft of some sort. I am confident
that they do not originate in our solar system, but they may use Mars or some
other body for a way station." MUFON's Antonio Huneeus interviewed him later
and Oberth said he stood by his statements. His comments have new meaning
based on the Mars Polar Lander failure and the September failure of the Mars
Climate Orbiter. It is a total loss for the entire, $330 million Mars '98
project, which consisted of Polar Lander, the Deep Space 2 microprobes and
the Climate Orbiter. Doesn't it seem strange that two out of every three of
Earth's space probes going to Mars fail? You might remember we lost the
billion dollar Mars Observer spacecraft in 1993, just as it was about to go
into orbit. That gave NASA a wakeup call particularly since the Russian
probes at met a similar fate. I suggest that Dan Goldin and NASA review the
March 28, 1989, images showing a huge cylinder shaped craft intercepting the
Soviet Phobos 2 spacecraft. The UFO interceptor is very similar to the ones
reported by hundreds of witnesses here on Earth. We have multiple witness
reports including pilot reports, videotapes and photos of these objects. ET
may be waiting near Mars to capture or knock out our probes, but they are
also here on Earth.
NASA realized it's kind of tough to reveal to the American public that
we're losing billion dollar spacecraft to ET, even if they do pay for allot
of scientists. So they did the next best thing. They cheapened the cost of
spacecraft so American taxpayers only lost $157 million dollars for the Mars
Polar Lander. Let's face it, NASA is in a tough spot. Congress may get upset
with failed space probes and cut NASA's budget even further. It's tough to
blame the failed probes on ET, so they have to admit they made some sort of a
mistake. NASA continues to search for life on Mars. However, the fact that
only a few of our space probes succeed provides evidence that something is
out there. These Filer's Files costs nothing and operate on a shoe string,
but we're apparently getting closer to proving intelligent life exits in the
universe than NASA. Of course we have the services of a lot of dedicated
MUFON, ISUR, National Reporting Center, Skywatch and other volunteer
investigators. Ufolgists are getting better evidence each day. Imagine the
kind of videos we could get with a few million dollars. The Filer Research
Institute would be happy to consult with NASA and give them some techniques
for getting past the ET defenders. NASA Administrator Daniel Goldin said, "It
is conceivable that we will completely change our approach. "If I was Dan
Goldin, I would want to get out the old Phobos 2 images and learn by the
Soviet mistakes and a few of ours. According to Colonel Maria Popovich the
Phobos infrared cameras picked up a great deal of heat in certain key areas
indicating possible underground facilities on Mars. When the Soviet probe was
ready to go into orbit of the Martian moon Phobos, an unidentified flying
object came up to meet their craft. The ET welcoming team apparently captured
the Soviet probe. If you assume ET actually exists your whole approach to
visiting Mars changes. Other Mar's missions are now in preparation and much
could be done to get them through the ET defenses. Dan Goldin admits
privately something is out there. I suggest it might be time to start looking
for evidence ET is visiting Earth and Mars on a regular basis. NASA might
even want to start examining those so-called ice crystals they keep spotting
near the Space Shuttle. Those ice crystals are making 90 degree turns, fly
over thunderstorms and suddenly stop. These objects defy the laws of physics
if they are not intelligently controlled. It seems odd that our astronauts
operating the space shuttle cameras spend time zooming in on these disc
shaped ice crystals? I suggest NASA look closely at some of their own videos.
They might be surprised at the evidence they have in their own files. The
Filer Research Institute will even work on a contingency basis. NASA only has
to pay expenses unless our craft get through to Mars. We'll even check to see
if your calculations are correct. As a former USAF Intelligence Officer, I'm
prepared to brief NASA or anyone else on the ET intelligence situation. Its
time to weigh the evidence. We either have incompetent scientists at JPL and
NASA or something else is out there causing these failures.

METALLIC MATERIAL FOUND ON MUTILATED CATTLE
HEREFORD - The Amarillo Globe Daily News story reports: Law-enforcement
officers in the Hereford, Texas found they had something in common with
officers in the Taos, N.M. On Dec. 9, 1978, officers found out that a
metallic material on the hides of mutilated Texas cows was nearly identical
to the material found on mutilated cows in New Mexico. The unexplained
mutilations occurred during the previous summer. Between 15 and 20 of the
mutilations happened near Hereford while 12 cattle were killed inexplicably
in northern New Mexico. In both places, the mutilations were discovered after
local people reported seeing UFOs. To make the incident even more strange,
ranchers in both places reported that the udders, rectums, tongues, ears,
testicles and sometimes tails were cut off the animals with sharp and precise
instruments. Entire reproductive tracts were missing from some of the
animals. But other cattle were left intact. Officers in both places reported
that there were no tracks or traces of human activity around or leading to
where the cattle were found dead. The substance found at both places looked
like slivers of gray paint and contained high amounts of potassium and
magnesium. The material was not fully identified, but was believed to be some
type of Teflon.

CHINA UFO STAYS FOR 90 MINUTES OVER SHANGHAI
SHANGHAI - As reported last week, a UFO was seen over China's commercial
capital Shanghai on December 2, 1999. Various newspapers and television
carried the story. The UFO apparently stayed in view for 90 minutes allowing
thousands to view the event. The object was cylindrical in shape with a long
bright tail and appeared similar to a comet. The flying object may be a
signal for further unrest and rioting. Usually staid official newspapers
insisted Thursday's UFO sighting was no vision. Headlines shouted, "UFO Darts
Across the City's Skyline," in the official Shanghai Daily. The Wenhui Daily
said in a front-page story with color photographs "UFO Appears in the Sky
Over Shanghai''. Nearly 100 people claimed to have seen a cylindrical object
with a flaming orange tail moving over the western part of the city for more
than an hour on Thursday afternoon, the newspapers said. They offered no
theories on what it might have been. The Chinese government is very sensitive
to UFO reports because the outlawed Falun Gong are believers in
extraterrestrials and UFOs. Thousands of Falun Gong leaders have been
arrested across China. Only the several million Christians imprisoned by the
government exceed the persecution of the Falun Gong.

ALIENS ARE "CHILDREN OF GOD" TOO?
Whitley Streiber, hosting the Dreamland Nationwide Radio Program carried a
story on November 28, 1999, a child asked the following question of Pope John
Paul II during one of the Pontiff's Q+A sessions on one of his recent tours:
"What about aliens?" The Pope replied: "We have to remember that they are
children of God too." Several times, spokespersons within the Vatican have
remarked publicly that the hierarchy of the Catholic Church has evidence and
official confirmations from the world's governments that UFOs and their
occupants are a reality.
Thanks to Dreamland.
WISCONSIN AIR NATIONAL GUARD F-16 CRASHES CHASING UFO?
BLANCHARDVILLE - Bill McNeff, the MUFON Minnesota State Director reports
that on September 13, 1999, a fighter aircraft thought to be from the 128th
Fighter Wing (ANG) had crashed chasing a UFO at 2:15 AM. This was in the
paper one day and then it was not mentioned again, Wisconsin State Journal
09/07/99 afternoon edition (Capital Times). (rough copied for speed) (API).
The ANG was making unannounced low level flyby's and it (they) seemed to be
chasing 6 little balls of light. This is not the first time either. Four
previous nights they have been awakening folks in the middle of the night.
However, the Control Tower at Truax Field denies any flight activity. Well
today the proof is not in they're hands, one of their F-16's did in-fact go
down south of Mt. Horeb for no apparent reason. The Guard unit blames the
crash on mechanical failure. Witnesses describe a shoot out between the jets
and the objects. One of the lights turned a different color and emitted a ray
type of glow and took out the F-16 #WNG46-5607 piloted by Col. Ralph Emmit
the Wing Commander. He was unavailable for comment and still is in University
of Wisconsin Hospital being treated for nonlife threatening injuries. The Air
National Guard has not officially commented on this matter and the NTSB was
not present at the crash site. Editor's Note: We're attempting to investigate
the report further for clarification.

CORRECTION ON "NEW INTELLIGENT SIGNALS FROM SPACE"
ARECIBO, PUERTO RICO - Last week I ran a summary of a Gannett News article
by Todd Halvorson that was published in the Home News Tribune on November 29,
1999. The newspaper did not run the entire article and left the reader with
the impression this was a viable contact. The article indicated that the
world's largest radio telescope, picked up what appeared to be an intelligent
signal coming from a small star named HD119850. What's more a backup
telescope at Jodrell Bank near Manchester, England was hearing the same
beacon a clear sign the signal was not from Earth. Other tests were conducted
from the Arecibo control room to determine if the signal coming from 106
trillion miles away was real. The telescope was moved away from the target
star. The signal vanished and only returned when it was aimed again at the
target star. The SETI Institute and Jodrell Bank wrote me to correct the
story that the signal had faded and was never confirmed. I discovered later
that the Home News Tribune did not carry the entire story. It ended the story
prior to the announcement that this signal was not confirmed based on SETI
scientific protocol. Editor's Note: Despite the denials several people wrote
saying that the initial story is correct and what is not public knowledge is
that the SETI people have very probably already intercepted dozens of ET
'messages' and radar signals. The signals from space are being picked up
regularly. The problem is they do not stay long enough to be verified. I'm
sorry for any inconvenience error this may have caused.
KECKSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA CRASH TAPE - UFO crash/retrieval Video Documentary
Most readers of this column are familiar with the Roswell event, but many are
unaware that a similar incident occurred in Pennsylvania in 1965, near a
small rural community called Kecksburg. Veteran UFO researcher Stan Gordon,
has been gathering information on this case for many years, and has produced
a studio made 92 minute video called "Kecksburg The Untold Story." This
production recently won the 1998 EBE film award for the Best Historical UFO
Documentary. The video contains interviews with many people who have
information about the case. Witnesses came across a large metallic acorn
shaped object with strange markings, partially buried in the ground, before
the military arrived on the scene. A witness says he saw the odd acorn shaped
object on the back of an army flatbed tractor trailer truck. Civilians claim
they were confronted by armed military personnel. For the first time
witnesses speak out on camera discussing information which suggests that
there could have been a cover-up. A startling revelation is revealed here
from a witness, who says he saw a body in the same building with the
Kecksburg object at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base only days after it was
delivered there. Also contained in the documentary are some of the actual
audio excerpts from the WHJB radio special called "Object in the woods." To
order your copy of "Kecksburg The Untold Story" send a check or money order
to: Stan Gordon Productions, Dept. GF, P.O. Box 936, Greensburg, PA 15601.
The cost of the tape including shipping and handling is $35.90. For PA
residents the cost including tax, S&H is $38.05.

SILVER CYLINDRICAL UFO SEEN IN DANDRIDGE
UFO hotspot Dandridge, Tennessee (population 1,540) is back in the news
again.
On Thursday, December 2, 1999, Patricia G. reports, "At 12:25 p.m. this
afternoon, I was sky-watching and actually got lucky. A silver cylinder
flying north to southwest was flying rather slowly. I'm afraid I can't tell
the altitude, but it was large."
"At first I thought it might be a jumbo jet, so I looked through my
binoculars, and to my delight there were no wings or tail, just a smooth
silver cylinder. There was no jetstream or contrail or whatever you call it."
On Wednesday night, December 1, Patricia's daughter "saw a blue light that
pulsated in the northeast sky. She said it was as large as a pencil eraser.
She was driving home and lost sight of it when she got home."
Dandridge is located 23 miles (36 kilometers) east of Knoxville.

CYLINDRICAL UFO HOVERS OVER SHANGHAI
A large light gray cylindrical UFO appeared over the western end of
Shanghai, the largest city in China, and hovered there for one hour on
Thursday afternoon, December 2, 1999.
The hovering UFO was seen by about 100 people and was reported in two large
newspapers, the Shanghai Daily, and the Wenhui Daily, in their Friday,
December 3, editions.
Upon receiving a telephone call from an eyewitness, "a reporter for Wenhui
Daily hurried to the 43rd floor of a building" and "claimed he saw an
illuminated object stationary in the sky for ten minutes before it
disappeared."
Two TV stations in Shanghai broadcast color video footage of the UFO,
described as "an object darting through the sky with a flaming orange tail."
"A former researcher at the Shanghai Observatory, Professor Jiang Xiaoyuan,
was one of the witnesses but he could not offer an explanation."
"The UFO hovered over the city for an hour and a half, reports said."
Radar operators at Hongqiao International Airport near Shanghai said they
detected "nothing out of the ordinary" on their radar sets.
(See the Chinese newspaper Wenhui Daily for December 3, 1999, "UFO appears in
the sky over Shanghai." Many thanks to Jim Hickman of Aerial Phenomena
Research Group for forwarding the newspaper article.)
SEVEN UFOs SIGHTED IN BANDON, OREGON
On Monday, November 1, 1999, eyewitness A.S. and 12 other witnesses saw
seven "circular things" in the sky over Bandon, Oregon (population 2,215), a
small town on Highway 101 85 miles (112 kilometers) west of Roseburg.
"I was in Bandon at 9 a.m., visiting the cheese factory," A.S. reported,
"And all of a sudden, I saw a flash of gray and looked and these things were
headed for the (Pacific) ocean, which was right next to a campsite."
"They had a weird color on the bottom, like a little flash of blue light.
They were going about twenty miles per hour and were three miles up. When I
could not see them (anymore), I left my car."

FLORIDA CYLINDER
TAMPA - The witness was driving south on Highway 75, and saw this cylinder
shaped object in very pale muted blue and green cast sky. It stood out as a
huge cylindrical upright object. It appeared as if the sky was a fabric and
that this object was coming through a slit in the fabric. The witness was not
sure what could be so huge and its vertical position like a column was unlike
the horizontal positions of a plane, craft or birds, etc. It was solid white
in color with a definite outline to it and it did not mover or change shape.
The witness watched for about five minutes. The length of the object at arm's
length was about the size of a new pencil, eight inches by half an inch in
width. The witness also compares the length of the object to approximately
six full moons, at arm's length. The sighting took place on November 9, 1996,
at 9:00 AM.

TEXAS GOLDEN FLYING TRIANGLE
SILSBEE - Sue reports that she observed a UFO, 25 miles north of Beaumont,
Texas on December 10, 1999. Sue was traveling home from work when she saw a
large golden flying triangle at 5:00 PM. It appeared to be heading towards
the ground on a fairly steep angle. She thought it might crash and looked for
the smoke or fire and the sound of a crash, but there was none. She tried to
get her husband to come outside and look but he doesn't believe in UFOs. This
is the first time Sue ever saw a UFO. Sue said, "This is my first sighting
ever."

HOUSTON - On December 10, 1999, at 8:00 - My daughter was looking at the
sky and asked me, "What is that?" and I replied it's the Moon. She said, "The
moon is to the right!" I looked again and seen this bright light with what
looked like lots of stars or fire maybe, behind it. I was amazed. We watched
it for about 20 seconds and went to get my wife and she came out, but it was
gone. We stood there a couple more minutes and saw it again going the other
direction. First, we saw it coming down. The second time it was shooting up.
I can only explain it as a strange feeling. It looked more like a rocket
landing or missile. We thought Russia sent one at us, but the second time we
saw it going the other way. Well, we were amazed.

PENNSYLVANIA PLASMA UFO
LANSDOWNE - In a most unusual experience prior to this summer, myself, my
sister Dolores and friend Kathleen Simon watched as a jet flew due west of
Philadelphia. It formed a contrail along its path from which an object broke
off of the trail, just a short distance behind the jet. Afterwards, the
object veered off for about ten to fifteen seconds and then, vanished. The
object was well defined so as not to be simply vapor from the trail itself.
This curious event occurred May 30, 1999, 8:00 PM EST This has been,
undoubtedly, the most outstanding incident in sightings for myself and others
here.

VIRGINIA THREE DISCS
DANVILLE - Adam Clark reports that on November 4, 1999, at 5:30 PM my
friend and I were outside talking when I noticed three disc shaped objects in
the sky. I told my friend to look and we watched the three objects for about
30 minutes when the objects flew off. One of the disc objects was smaller
than the other two. They were metallic gray in color. No detail could be
seen. On November 18, we were outside again and my friend told me to look up,
because the same three objects were in the sky. We watched them for about 10
minutes around 5:30 PM.

GEORGIA UFO ACTIVITY
NORCROSS - MUFON State Director Tom Sheets reports that NUFORC has several
recent cases posted from our area to include a November 21, 1999, illuminated
object near Highway 141 in Norcross, possible disc hovered and then
accelerated at a tremendous speed.
LAWERENCEVILLE - On November 24, 1999, a circle shape was observed near
Highway 316. It was the size of a large car sending out blinding flashes like
lightening strikes. ASD Mark Ausmus of Lawrenceville also observed some sort
of unusual explosion in the sky a little over a week ago. Possibly related to
the above is a witness living outside of Cumming at the south end of Lake
Lanier. He has observed unusual bright multicolored star like objects coming
up above the horizon and then going back down. Within the last few days, the
witness has observed these darting objects again.
ROME - A few weeks ago, our Diane Headrick referred a witness to SSD
Janssen in Rome regarding a 'ferris wheel' appearing UFO.
ZEBULON - On December 12, 1999, at 2:10 PM, a dump truck operator was
unloading on County Line Rd. in Pike County. As he checked his outside
mirror, he noticed a distant object in the sky, his truck facing to the SW,
appearing just over the top of his mirror. He stuck his hand out and spread
his fingers to measure it's travel from NE to SW and stated that it went from
the tip of thumb to tip of finger in about 3 seconds. He continued to watch
the object for about 10 seconds, describing it as round, aluminum color,
glistening in the sun, about 3 times the size of a BB shot or small ball
bearing at arm's length. The witness indicated that it had no aircraft like
structures such as wings, tail etc. He had earlier been watching regular jet
liners leaving contrails overhead, and that the viewing conditions were good
in the blue sky. This witness was an attendee at a recent MUFONGA meeting.
