England: A woman sees a large, orange ball of flames speeding, hovering, expanding and shrinking

Posted: February 11, 2010

Location of Sighting: Newcastle Under Lyme
Date of Sighting: 31 December 2009
Time: 11-30pm

Witness Statement: First, I do not drink & second, this was definately not a chinese lantern!

On New Years Eve I was standing in the back garden to have a cigarette when I looked up & saw an incredibly bright orange ball in the sky. It was bigger than the moon usually appears to be from this location & had the appearance of a ball of flames. It hurtled across the sky, at least 10 times faster than any plane I've ever seen, then stopping very suddenly. It remained still for 30seconds then expanded to double its size. After a few seconds it disappeared briefly before it slowly shrank down to a quarter of its original size.

England: 'UFO' spotted in Lancashire hot-spot for 44th time!

A UFO, given the description of a flying saucer, has been spotted in Lancashire.

Remarkably, it is the 44th occasion that a UFO has been found in the Bacup and Rossendale area since 1977 - the highest number of sightings recorded in the country.

The area is now probably better known to its residents as 'UFO Valley'.

Aron Sacks yesterday took a photo of a weird looking flying saucer object looking down on a very gloomy day for the village.

He told The Sun newspaper how it hovered around the skies for around a minute and then silently zoomed off out of sight soon afterwards.

Aron said: "It was amazing - certainly not a normal aircraft. I grabbed my phone, took one photo - then when I looked back it had gone.

England: UFO seen in Phear Park, Exmouth

Exmouth man Roy Shaw has exclusively spoken about the moment he came face-to-face with what UFO experts are calling a Close Encounter of the Third Kind, writes Becca Gliddon.

UFO sceptic Mr Shaw, of Withycombe Village Road, is the latest resident to report seeing strange coloured lights - and says he spotted what he can only describe as a spaceship landing in Phear Park. The retired engineer and his dog ran for home when a white 'shimmering' shape began walking towards them

Roy Shaw does not believe in aliens, ghosts, flying saucers or anything he cannot physically touch or explain.

But recently Mr Shaw, a retired engineer, saw something unusual in Phear Park that frightened him so much, it caused him to run home so fast he twisted his ankle in the process, writes Becca Gliddon.

Prof. Ana Luisa Cid, following up on developments in the story of the "Hidalgo Crash", informed us today at 3:02 pm Eastern Time that the Mexican Space Agency (AEXA) has determined that "Cosmos 2421, a Russian naval reconnaissance satellite placed in orbit on June 25, 2006, broke up in February 2008 leaving 15 fragmetns. These fragments were catalogued by NORAD as space junk. An analysis of Fragment 33006 of Cosmos 2421 allowed its reentry to be predicted on February 10, 2010...."

Mexican television has carried the story as well. The video (in Spanish) can be seen here.

India: Mysterious blasts in South Goa spark speculation

Panaji/Marago - - A series of mysterious blasts that were heard but not seen had South Goa in a tizzy and sparked off speculation about the nature and origin of the explosions on Thursday. Sources said the blasts occurred thrice in succession at around 12:30pm and the origin could be somewhere in Goa's southernmost taluka of Canacona.

The meteorology department in Panaji noted the "disturbance" on its seismograph but said it could not determine its direction or origin.

Quepem sub-divisional police officer R K Patre said he scouted various beach stretches in Canacona, but could not find any trace of a blast. Patre said he also got in touch with the police in Karwar and was told that they too had heard the bang. It is learnt that the noise thundered in Cuncolim and some even in Navelim and Colva claim to have heard it.

Published: February 10, 2010

Date: 1959

I am telling this story as related to me in 2008 by a former employer who wishes to remain anonymous. He is a Loveland, Colorado business owner in his 80's, a conservative WWII vet who fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and is the least likely person you'd think would ever try to put on a hoax.

I was amazed when I brought up the subject of UFOs one day, and he told me his story and went to his desk and pulled out a picture he took of a formation of UFOs he saw. I examined the picture and it was a genuine photo on Kodak paper, obviously aged a bit, but still in very good condition. With his permission I scanned it at high resolution and am including it with this report.

He recalls he was flying west with a friend near Idaho Falls, ID, just west of Yellowstone Park in spring 1959, he couldn't recall the exact month.

The apparent mystery of whether Drogheda was visited by extraterrestrials on New Year's Eve deepens! A local man has seven minutes of video taken in the town on the date in question which he says is 'the clearest footage of Unidentified Flying Objects taken in Irish skies'.

John Smith, who lives off Marley's Lane, Drogheda, took the footage outside his house shortly before midnight, and it shows six very bright lights flying in sequence over the town.

'I have been an aviation enthusiast for over 20 years, and I know these weren't any kind of plane or helicopter, as there was no noise and no wings or other flashing lights,' he says.

I left my house and was driving through Langhorne, Pennsylvania. The direction I was traveling in was the direction from the Sheraton Hotel to LA Fitness on North Oxford Valley Road.

It was late at night, around 10:30-10:35. I noticed a huge, rigid, spherical light in the sky on the horizon past LA Fitness. It was emanating lights and glows like a small star would, only this large light object was high in the sky and was not the size of a star at all.
