LONG BEACH — The Long Beach Police filmed this UFO on Christmas Day in 1994. However, no officer has ever commented on the eerie happening in California. The video has now been viewed more than 150,000 times on YouTube. Former Ministry of Defence UFO expert Nick Pope said: “It’s weird and despite competing theories, it’s unresolved.Skeptics say it is space debris burning up in the atmosphere, or a military flare on a parachute, with hot ash coming off it; while believers say it’s an alien spacecraft releasing probes.” Read more:

CORONA — On March 16, 2009, my family and I witnessed a UFO. My Son was looking for the International Space Station (ISS) that was supposed to be visible around dusk. He watched for a while but did not see the ISS, when it got dark he came in but glanced out the window to take one last look and spotted a very small light making very strange patterns and darting at great speeds horizontally and vertically.  He ran out the front door screaming a UFO. I called my wife and other kids out and we were just standing there in amazement. After ten minutes, I grabbed my daughters video camera which she never uses, it was still in the box with a dead battery,  so I had to plug into the outlet on our porch for power and I started shooting, I had never used that camera before so I was figuring it out as I shot the footage. My daughter has been telling me for several months she had seen a strange looking object several times and would come to get me, but by the time I got there it was gone. Thanks to MUFON CMSANTIOCH – I was taking a video image of an airplane that was flying over Antioch, California this past Sunday, March 28, 2010, in the early PM part of the day. At the 27 second mark of this video and for just one quick frame an unidentified object quickly darts in and then out of the frame. I cannot say for sure what it is, but it does seem to have a very distinct geometrical look to it

Note: The video is out of focus, but does show the object referenced by the witness. The above video has been “trimmed” and slowed down to show the few frames where the object shows up 25 Miles ENE of San Francisco)’ William Puckett, Director http://www.ufosnw.com

HUNTINGTON  BEACH – On April 6, 2010, a video was made of a bright flashing bright light with multiple colors and mass variations. The object was stationary on the horizon at 10:30 PM. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Note: Venus and Mercury below and to the right can be seen on the western horizon shortly after sunset. High at the top of the sky is Mars and further east is Saturn. Thanks to MUFON CMS

California Triangles and Lights

HACIENDA HEIGHTS -- These photos were taken in the San Gabriel mountains. I am not sure what the objects are. Nothing was seen flying around when the photos were taken. In photo 1 the object is near the center top of photo. The enlargement is also displayed. In photo 2. After closer observation it seems the objects are shaped like a triangle.

Note: The photos were taken about one minute apart. The witness edited the photos and created the enlargements. The original unedited photos have been requested. It is interesting that several objects suddenly showed up one minute after the first photo was taken. Perhaps the objects could be balloons or birds, but this cannot be determined from the photo.

CITRUS HEIGHTS — You should contact my husband and my son for all the details of our February 11, 2010 sighting of a cigar shaped UFO. My husband has not reported this sighting because he fears no one would believe him. My son was very excited to see something so unbelievable! I have no idea who you are suppose to call but I feel someone should know what they saw last Friday morning. Thank you, Brandy Legacy

SAN BERNARDINO – On January 25, 2010, I arrived at home at 10:45 PM, and noticed a cluster of orange lights at 10:45 PM. The lights were stationary for at least five minutes and then two of the lights that were side by side started moving towards each other as if they were going to collide. As they got to the point of touching they just crossed and dropped down about a half inch in the sky and stayed in place for awhile. I ran inside and told my wife and got my camera and we came out and began to take pictures.

As took the pictures the lights were stationary and slowly faded away. I noticed in the background the white lights and the red flashing tail light lights of an airplane coming south bound towards LA (Los Angeles). It flew underneath the top orange light in the northwest where two lights faded and were east of the airplane. As the plane passed the lights illuminated again; and I took three other pictures and only one object stayed orange as shown. There was one object northwest also the same as the other two.

Note: The photo was taken with a FUJIFILM A850 Digital Camera with a maximum resolution of 8.1 mega-pixels. I am only able to see one orange light in the single photo sent by the witness. Attempts were made to enhance the photo through changing the brightness and contrast to better reveal detail, but only the one orange light shows up. The light has been magnified in the above photo and appears to be the original photo as output from the camera.

RIPON – On January 29, 2010, I was driving north from Modesto through Ripon heading towards Manteca where my Fiancé and I noticed a very bright set of lights hovering over Highway 99, 1/4 of a mile from Ripon High School. We noticed the object spinning slowly as the outside lights glowed off and on. I said “I think it’s a UFO” and as we drove by the object, it was clear that there was nothing holding the lights in the air as it was hovering on its own.

The center light glowed different colors as the outside lights changed from white to orange to red. I then turned around so I could get a photo but by the time we got back, the object was gone. The duration of time of the sighting was around three minutes. I felt very uneasy as I am currently an Air Intelligence Analyst in the United States Air Force. The object was about 600 feet AGL and the size was roughly around 30 yards from point to point. I swear on everything that I have seen the same object in videos as well with the same exact characteristics. I’m baffled! Thanks to Fernando A. Maestas

SAN CARLOS– Saw the weird shape hover overhead on January 13, 2010, that quickly moved over Redwood City and kept the same altitude than quickly disappeared.

Colorado Cattle Mutilations Continue

SAN LUIS — Paranormal field investigator Chuck Zukowski performed an investigation of a bizarre cattle mutilation that took place on December 7, 2009. Rancher never experienced previous mutilation on property and the cow was not insured. Cow calved 2008. Calf is alive and doing fine. Cow was found laying on its left side 90 yards from the rest of herd. Snow was present in area at time of finding mutilation; some snow had melted by investigation time. At time of death, weather was sub zero conditions with negative wind chill. No footprints, tire wheel markings were found initially by rancher. Udder, tongue, right eye ball and left side of face was removed, approximately 48 square inches of flesh were missing. No blood pooling was seen around animal by rancher. Cow was 4 years old . Cow was estimated to weigh 900 pounds. Very unusual high EMF meter movement occurred when passing over the base of the right ear near the face wound. This was Chuck Zukowski’s fifth cattle mutilation investigation for 2009.

Chuck writes, “The Miller mutilation looked as though the calf had been dropped, the bones were crushed, but no impact marks on the ground.  “The Duran and Aaron San Luis mutilation, the animals seemed as though they were layed down. Both of those cases the animals were laying on soft ground showing no signs of leg movement or struggle. The most amazing one was the Aaron mutilation, using an AlphaLab Trifield EMF Meter which measures electric field and magnetic field, the meter was measuring over 100 microteslas! The static magnetic field of the earth is about 50 microtesla, so the measurement I observed was more than double that of the earth! I never saw that with any of the previous animals.” Merry Christmas, and thank you for all your hard work. Please go to detailed mutilation reports  Thanks to Chuck Zukowski

SAN JOSE — On August 7, 2009, driving southbound on I-680 in San Jose, California, between Hostetter Rd. and Capital Ave. exits. I took pictures with a 2 megapixel cell phone camera of the sky while driving to see what kind of pictures would come out since I had not used the camera yet. There are many “orbs” and what appear to be black helicopters in the pictures. None were visible at the time, nor did I hear any sounds. I have taken many pictures showing these objects in this area over the last couple years these maybe the best and most recent. I have had good results using other cameras also. It seems I get something in this stretch of road most of the time. I have others but here are two pictures. Thanks to MUFON CMS

SAN LUIS OBISPO, California -Metallic UFO

To understand what happened at 2:30 am on early Saturday morning, you have to understand what happened to me in 1989. I was renting a two bedroom Condo in North Dallas. I had a Roommate, Carole, who stayed in the Bedroom directly across the Living Room area from my Bedroom? I was walking out of my Bedroom around 1 PM and turned my eyes to the right and I heard this “Pop” sound and I see three grayish-metallic spheres fly right through the wall! They were three to four inches in diameter. I have 21/10 vision up close and I was only two feet away so I could see them so clearly. They were also flying in an elliptical pattern and I could see that the ” Popping ” sound was them literally expanding and contracting the wall as they went through it!!..I could even see that “Doppler Effect ” colors kind of pooling on the surface of the spheres…My Roommate Carole was coming out of her room and saw something but was over ten feet away. I saw them for less than a second and they were gone.

Yesterday, I was in my bathroom and brushing my teeth and I hear that ” Pop ” sound again coming from the other room. Later, I was walking into my Living Room and I see two perfect symmetrical circles on my carpet in front of my bed !!!…They looked like ” Crop Circles ” and one even has what looks like a Star Map inside it and they are very close to the same diameter of the spheres I saw in 1989 ! I remembered that Crop Circles can have Radiation left behind and I am wondering if these are emitting some kind of toxic Radiation…..Could you please come and check them out with a Geiger Counter. Thanks to Cici and MUFON CMS

EL CAJON — New Year’s night 2010, just after 12:15 AM, I looked out my patio to see three red lights in a triangle formation low in the southern sky. It appeared to drift slowly west and one by one the lights dimmed and were gone. With high powered binoculars I could see the lights were still there but not visible to the naked eye. I’m sure many have seen this object that night.

SAN LUIS OBISPO — On January 2, 2010, I was at home with my kid and went outside onto the back porch about 11 AM, and noticed a very odd out of place object in the sky above the mountains that face the direction of the ocean. The object was still and did not move for about five minutes and then suddenly it was gone!

MURRIETA – We turned left down Mount Street and I looked back and an object was right behind us on December 6, 2009, at 1 PM. She looked back and speeded up and almost hit a white van The object was chasing us as we cane to my house. I jumped out as the car made a U turn and ran toward my house and saw the object hovering over a huge tree next to my house.

I haven’t been able to sleep, and my brother told me that his friend was also chased by one the same night! It was round with white light’s going back and forth but it didn’t make a sound.. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director http://www.ufocenter.com/

SAN FRANCISCO — On November 24, 2009, at 6 PM, I was taking pictures of the Embarcadero Center Christmas lighting from Pier 14 concrete walkway jutting 150 yards out into Bay. I shot the pictures with a Cannon SD 970 IS 12.1 MP, using a tripod. “Blue moon” was not seen on LED screen by either me or my companion. A second shot was taken 46 seconds after blue moon picture and the blue moon is gone. We never saw the “blue moon” until we looked at the picture. Since we didn’t see it until viewing printout no motion was observed.

LOS ANGELES –I was standing outside having a cigarette on November 30, 2009, when I noticed a silver children’s balloon, but this object had much more mass to it and wasn’t flying like a balloon. “It definitely wasn’t floating in the wind, but seemed to be moving in a purposeful trajectory”. It was a trapezoidal shaped silver object about the size of a small car at 1500 feet moving west at 90 mph. I couldn’t tell if it had lights or if the flashes were from the reflection of the sunlight. The object had no control surfaces or rotors. No visible means of propulsion. The object was spinning horizontally and emitted no noise. There was no wind on the ground and am unsure what the winds were at 1500 feet. The whole event lasted about 3-4 minutes. Thanks to MUFON CMS

TRACY — The object that we saw on November 23, 2009, between 7:40 and 8 PM was large in size would zigzag left to right and back. The object would rise straight up into the sky and then shoot down and to the right. It flew over us at one point slowly and we were unable to hear any engine of any sort. It would fly into the sky again and then disappear out of sight only to re-appear again within seconds. It lasted about 20 minutes.

Note: Given the erratic movement observed by the witnesses and the photos (aqua colored object) this report is quite intriguing. In the second photo above the enlargement shows that the object has fragmented (separated) into two objects. The photos were taken with a NIKON D60 digital camera. This camera has a maximum resolution of 10.2 mega-pixels. There was no evidence of tampering with these photos. This is the third sighting reported from Tracy in November of 2009. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest.

FIREBAUGH — I was outside answering a phone call on November 14, 2009, when a shooting star caught my attention. When it got closer I thought it was a plane, but it was boomerang shaped and had six lights on the bottom that were all a faded yellow color, like a light bulb. It was very quiet and I could hear it buzzing, it sounded like bees. It was moving north at a constant medium speed. I watched for several minutes and then ran under a canopy for a minute and moved into the garage and I could still hear the buzzing noise. I called my cousin who came outside but she didn’t see it. I felt mesmerized and at the same time I was thinking it was beautiful and terrifying at the same time.

California Objects Photographed

SANTA MONICA – This video was shot in July 09 and shows a strange oval shaped UFO dropping flare like objects.

Editor’s Note: Many Utube videos are made in Photoshop and similar programs. This is so fake, why must people persist with this drivel?

OLIVERHURST –I was taking photos of this awesome sunset on October 17, 2009, at 6 PM. After I downloaded the pictures to my computer and started looking them over I noticed that in one of the pictures there is a strange white object in the sky. I did not see it while I was taking the photos, and it is not in any pictures before or after this one. I don’t believe it’s a bird, and when I zoom in it looks almost triangular with 2 black round spots on one side.

Note: I don’t know for sure what this anomaly could be. Zooming in doesn’t reveal the detail or characteristics described by the witness. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

My father Lt. Col William J Brophy USAF told me in 1978, while watching a program about the Roswell crash called “In Search Of “about his UFO encounter over Georgia on November 4, 1950

with a large Nordic flown disk while he flew a C-47 transport from Robins AFB, GA. to McGuire AFB, NJ. He was interviewed by the Air Force and he found out the disk he had seen was just like the one the Navy was storing at Moffett Field Naval Airbase in Sunnyvale, Ca. One of the scientists my Dad talked to was Dr. Eric Henry Wang who was in charge of two very tall blond Nordics at Wright Patterson AFB, who had died after being shot down by anti-aircraft fire over Los Angeles and had crashed near San Clemente Island west of San Diego on Feb. 25, 1942.

My dad also flew the B-29 Silverplate bombers in New Mexico, he told me they were named after the 1942 Los Angeles disks and that the Trinity Bomb was named after the 3 inch guns in Los Angeles which shot the Nordics down. One of the ships involved in the recovery was the ARS-1 Viking Salvage Ship. Dad told me a second disk crashed in the San Gorgonio area and was recovered by the 31st Observation Squadron at San Bernardino Airport and personnel from March Field. Len Stringfield mentions the two Nordics in his Retrievals #3 book of 1982, Case B-8. If anyone has information about this please let me know. Thanks to William Brophy

Anthony Bragalia writes, “Since the 1940′s the U.S. government has quietly engaged one of its key defense and intelligence agency contractors as a secret UFO “think tank.”

New investigation reveals that the esteemed RAND Corporation is a “think tank” that has given far more than “passing thought” to things extraterrestrial. RAND’s hidden history of UFO involvement has been discovered to include work in policy analysis; evaluation of evidence and in advising on the potential technological advantages achieved from UFO study. Telling connections have also been found between RAND and the Roswell crash event of 1947.
RAND Corporation was established in 1946 by the U.S. Army Air Force as Project RAND (for Research and Development) and is today registered as a nonprofit organization. It is funded through government contracts, university collaborators and by “private donors.” RAND’s primary agency clients include the CIA and DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.) Headquartered in Santa Monica, CA the think tank maintains branches worldwide. RAND’s stated mission is to “help to improve policy and decision making through objective research and analysis.” Its work is officially conducted “for the public welfare and security of the United States of America.” Over 30 Nobel Prize winners have been employed by RAND. From physics to economics, the 2000 person think tank provides high-level information and evaluation to the U.S. government. Deeper review shows that RAND has conducted studies in such areas as weapons development, intelligence gathering and analysis and the design of sensitive underground installations for the USAF. Far more concealed is RAND’s intimate involvement in highly classified UFO study for the U.S. government:

RAND’S FOUNDERS HELD THE SECRET OF THE SAUCERS

From its very inception, the men of RAND knew much about saucers. RAND was conceived by Donald Douglas, CEO of Douglas Aircraft along with two military officer luminaries. Douglas often confided in friends about the reality of the UFOs. These officers carried with them significant “UFO histories.” The officers behind RAND were Major General Curtis LeMay (the US Air Force’s Chief of Development) and General Hap Arnold (considered the “father” of the modern U.S. Air Force.) In May of 1948 RAND was separated from Douglas Aircraft and became its own operating entity. Among RAND’s earliest government reports was the release of the enigmatically titled, “Preliminary Design of an Experimental World-Circling Spaceship.”

General Curtis LeMay expressed deep interest and concern about the flying saucer phenomena. More than this, LeMay himself was a keeper of the purported 1947 Roswell UFO crash  debris. This was revealed in a stunningly candid interview with the late U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater. Goldwater (a former U.S. Presidential Candidate, Major General and Command Pilot) was General LeMay’s professional associate and close friend. LeMay’s UFO involvement was related by Goldwater in a live worldwide broadcast with CNN’s Larry King in 1994. The USAF had just issued its report that debunked the Roswell crash of 1947 as a Mogul balloon. Goldwater (who died just a few years later) informed King that he knew the truth to be far different.  He knew this, he explained, because in the 1960′s he had approached LeMay about the crashed UFO issue. Goldwater -who no doubt himself held the highest security clearances- told Larry King:

“I think at Wright-Patterson, if you could get into certain places, you’ll find what the Air Force and the government knows about UFOs. Reportedly, a spaceship landed. It was all hushed up. I called Curtis LeMay and I said, ‘General, I know we have a room at Wright Patterson where you put all of this secret stuff. Could I go in there? I’ve never heard General LeMay get mad, but he got madder than hell at me, cussed me out and said, ‘Don’t ever ask me that question again!” Goldwater never did.

LeMay was very well-acquainted with Roswell Army Air Field Base Commander Butch Blanchard. Blanchard oversaw the base at the time of the Roswell crash event in 1947. It is believed that Blanchard helped issue the original press release on the crash- which prompted the famous resulting headline “RAAF Captures Flying Saucer on Ranch in Roswell Region.” Blanchard’s former wife and daughter Dale say that he was highly affected and visibly upset by the event. He repeated only, “those Russians have some amazing things.” Roswell mayor William Brainerd says that Blanchard told him, “What I saw was the damndest thing I’ve ever seen!” To Art McQuiddy -editor of the Roswell Morning Dispatch in 1947- Blanchard said when questioned, “I’ll tell you this and nothing more- the stuff I saw I’d never seen anyplace else in my life.” Thanks to Anthony Bragalia envcol@mindspring.com
