Witness Testimony

It was a clear cloudless May 31st night with the wind blowing from the north at about 15 MPH. At about 9:09 PM I was watering my garden in the backyard and looked up and saw an amber light almost directly overhead. The altitude of this thing I would guess would be about a quarter of a mile above me. I observed this light slowly travel from the West to the Northeast for a few seconds and then ran into the garage to grab my Canon Power Shot sx710hs camera which took maybe 10 seconds. As I was running back to the backyard I shot a short video clip, but knowing that it probably would not show up I switched to still image, but forgot that the camera was in macro mode. I took a few shots trying to hold the camera as still as possible. If you have ever tried to take a picture of something in the dark without using the flash then you know that it is almost impossible to get a clear picture due to the slow shutter speed.

This object the turned a more reddish color and then went south until I could not see it anymore. I highly doubt this was a lantern due to the fact that it was traveling against the wind and also because of the intensity of the light. This is not the first time I have observed fire orange lights here in Hollister. I along with multiple neighbors have observed these reddish orange lights in the sky several times. These things are always in the same spot of the eastern sky at around 8:30 to 9:30 PM, but this one came from the exact opposite direction instead of the usual east. These things have a consistent repetitive flight pattern. Because of the regular occurrence of these things I have built a mobile wide angle camera system connected to a digital video recorder to try to capture these guys in action.

That system is set facing East, but since I set it up there has been nothing until this one coming from the west. I have stopped making reports of these things because of fear of people thinking that I am making this up. I am an experienced astronomer with an 8″ telescope with knowledge of aircraft and such. I take this subject seriously because I had a triangle fly above me a few years ago. I can assure you that these things are not aircraft, drones, Chinese lanterns or helicopters. I doubt anybody has messed with these things more than me.

I have hit them with green lasers, 36 million candlepower spotlight and marine flares. There is no way that these things have not noticed me. I sound like a nut right now, but I have a dozen neighbors to back me. This is the first time I have used this site usually I send this kind of thing to Peter Davenport. I will send the pictures I have along with this report.

I have a question, is there a way to run the photographs of these things through a spectrum analyzer/spectrometer because I know the F.B.I has a database of just about every light source? I am told that this software has the capability to identify the brand and even the model of a given light source. If this has not been pursued that would tell me that nobody is serious about the whole UFO, UAP or whatever acronym they use.

Witness Testimony

I saw approximately 10 glowing red orange objects moving slowly (10 to 15 MPH) South-Southeast parallel to I-95. The objects appeared to be East of I-95 by 100 yards or so. The objects turned due East for 2 minutes and then vanished all at the same point. There was one trail vehicle behind the others and it took the same path as the others, but it stayed in the area an extra 2 minutes. It also vanished shortly after turning due East. Note there had been a Brush fire earlier at approximately 5:00 PM and the objects could have been from that, but it sure seemed odd that something could stay aloft that long and be on fire. I am not sure what they were, but it was very odd. There was no noise and the event lasted about 5 minutes. I have video of the trail object.

Additional Information Provided by Witness: Exactly what I thought at first too however, they were going cross
wind at appoximately 75 degrees for 2/3 of the time we watched them and they were not flickering. The wind looked like it was blowing due East the
objects were traveling South-Southeast then due East for a short time andthen vanished. I spoke with people at work and another lady saw two of them back near that area at around 9:00 PM the same night. She has a receipt from Burger King that is time stamped. She will confirm the 9:00 PM second sighting of two of them. Also it was very windy and dry with brush fire warnings out so it would need to be an idiot if they sent fire up in a lantern. My videos suck. I will send it. Some of them are too big to send. I will try to download them off the phone. I sent what would go.

Witness Used Map Below to Describe Path of Objects:

Witness Has Provided Information on Another Witness Who Saw Objects: William; Correction. I spoke to my friend at work again and she said she left burger king around 9:00 (she will look for receipt to make sure on the time).

She explained she saw the two orbs on the way home see map lower right is Burger King see Blue line for route home. Sighting was on Pine Street she was headed North and objects were to her Northwest. This is six miles away and approximately 50 minutes later. I would note exactly North-North west of the ones I saw that were initially heading South-Southeast. It is odd that her sighting would have fit nicely with the initial heading I saw on mine. My friend did not mention a heading of the two objects she saw. I think they were moving in a car and did not note a direction.

Location of Sighting

Description: I used my phone to zoom in to what I thought was the brightest star I have ever seen. I love zooming in to see what stars look like up close. Well when I zoomed in, this did not look like all the other stars that I have zoomed in on. This looked like a glowing orb with a small dark center and this orb also appeared to be pulsating.

I continued to hold my camera zoomed in on this “star” and as it was pulsating I saw it expand to where it looked like it had double ring of lights. I keep watching through my zoomed lens and now I see 4 distinct lights and it seemed as if it was either turning to face a different direction, or changing shape and as this was taking place it changed from a simple pulsating white orb with double ring of lights to an aircraft shaped object that is displaying blue lights which there now appeared to have 6 lights. I also begin to see smaller sets of lights flying away from this aircraft. At first it looked light one object flying away with 4 orange color lights, but then they separated into 2 separate objects with 1 set of orange lights.

Then it turned again to where it now looks like a white double ringed pulsating orb. To the naked it eye it looked noticing larger than what we call the north star and brighter. The news reported that it was Venus.

Had I not taken my own pictures I would have believed it was. You tell me.

UFOs NorthWest Note: The witness makes a good point that Venus is not a good explanation for he saw and photographed. Many reports this past month have been sightings of Venus. However, the photos suggest that the witness saw something else.

Description: A man in Cape Code, MA got home from work and went outside to smoke a cigarette. He was looking up at the moon and saw a dim object flying to the north. He first that that the object was a satellite, but it made a 180 degree turn.

The object then started arcing around the moon. When it reached the brighter side of the moon it became brighter. The witness thought the object could have been a military craft or a UFO. He said that the object appeared to flying a satellite altitude.

He was quite familiar with satellites and knew that a satellite couldn’t maneuver like the object. He had never seen anything like it in his life. The witness’s audio report can be heard above.

Location of Sighting: About 7 Miles North of Mt. Rainier in Washington State
Date of Sighting: June 1, 2016
Time of Sighting: 2:34 AM PDT

Reviewing a photos from a night time lapse (within 24 hours of above observation) about 7 miles north of Rainier, looking south), something appears on one photo and am not sure what it is/was.

I guess this will send faster than I thought since my image-browser program (Photo Mechanic) automatically converted it to a JPG, so it’s only 1.9 MBs. No big deal. If you want the original RAW image, it’s more like 21 MBs or something (closer to the email-size limit for many programs, after which, a file transfer service maybe could be used).

Photo was taken from 46.959051, -121.680257 (about 7 miles NNE of Mount Rainier) looking SSW at the mountain. This high elevation meadow is at about 5,400 feet elevation or so. Again, the photo was taken at 2:34 AM on June 1st (early morning of Wed morning, June 1st). I used a 13-second exposure, 24 mm lens with the aperture at 1.6.

So the situation was that I hiked up here Tuesday for the sole purpose (mainly) to capture a Milky Way time lapse shot over Rainier. The plan was to be there Tues, Wed, Thur (3 days, 2 nights), but sour weather made me leave Wed night.

(I am using rough times and approximate events just to sketch out what happened without looking up every last minutia of detail to give you an idea, but precise details of earlier shots could be provided though probably not important.)

I started my first best-attempt at the time lapse sometime earlier in the night and drifted off to sleep. I awoke to see the camera still clicking away, showing blurred images in its LCD display (whatever you call it). Bummer. I was caused from dew. I brought the camera and tripod in the tent and wiped the down to remove the moisture from all the hardware. Now, sometime after 2 AM (after my failed-time-lapse-which-became-blurred attempt due to dew), I pondered restarting with, perhaps, the camera and tripod setting just inside the tent to thwart further dew. But I was tired and not committed. Then I remembered a couple of the mountain climbers I had seen and chatted with them at the Rainier permit office on Tue morning. They told me the route they would be taking up and I could see headlamps from climbers making the ascent so I thought should make another effort in case we hook up later (by some off chance, even though I had no name or contact info.) and see if I could make a time lapse of their headlamps crawling up the mountain. However, the camera, on “manual focus”, obviously got moved out of focus a bit as I had earlier dried off the dew. These late night focus attempts require (for me), my reading glasses plus, possibly, a magnifying glass all of which I had, but I was tired and not motivated. So I just risked that it was still in focus. From the image, you can see it is not super crisp as it should be. But it was not terrible. You can get the idea.

The image taken before the one being sent to you was taken about 21 minutes earlier and it was super fogged from dew. Mars and a few stars are visible. There was nothing interesting. It was a terrible shot. That was around 2:13 AM. Then I dried off the lens and started a new time lapse and the shot being sent is the first shot of the next pseudo time lapse effort taking about 57 shots. I kept interrupting and readjusting levelness of camera, etc. and gave up at about 2:56 AM and went to sleep. But it was only the first shot of those 57 shots that had anything.

So, to discuss the weirdness of the shot: You see Mars over Rainier. To the right of Mars, from the right edge of the photo, looks like a blip of light, followed by a short-line trail to a second blip of light, followed by a long straight trail going just past Mars and then doing a sharp 90-degree turn or something to Mars and ending in a blip of light at Mars. (I am just guessing it traveled from right to left, but have no way of knowing since I didn’t see it when it happened. I wasn’t paying attention.)

So that’s weird. Is it well behind the mountain? Maybe. Planes usually have red and white lights that blink at 1-second intervals (for a 13-second shot, would leave 13 red-white-dot patterns across the line). A military jet? Maybe. At 2:34 AM? Maybe. I didn’t hear or pay attention to any noise. Come to think of it, and this might be a very good explanation: The Joint Base Lewis McChord military airfield is around 47.142318, -122.485446 (about 40 miles west of me). And it might be reasonable for them to have something flying around there (without the normal red-white blinking lights at 1-sec. intervals).

Anyway, a curiosity. Sounds like the previous poster was looking straight up (and not due north towards Rainier, or south, or whatever). His/her description is obviously a bit different. There was no red or orange dot in my photos.

Note: The photo was taken with a 13 second exposure. This means that the streak noted in the photo occurred in 13 seconds. The photo was confusing to interpret until the contrast was adjusted. The streaking near the planet Mars gave the object a meteor or comet like appearance. Given the streaking and change in direction I don’t have an identification for this sighting. The witness presents a good argument that the light was not a standard aircraft flashing light. As stated you should see 13 dots if this was the case. The witness is comparing his sighting to a sighting of Reddish Orange dots on May 30, 2016 in Vancouver, Washington.

Description: I came home from work and was walking toward my apartment after parking my car. I saw two lights in the sky moving from the east. I took some pictures and then the lights disappeared.

Update – February 3, 2016 – Response From Witness Regarding Submission of Additional Photos: So sorry for the late response. I have been very sick with the flu and was recently hospitalized for it.

So I looked on your site and you put the green kind of boxy looking UFO up, but not the purple one. I tried to find the original of the purple, but may have accidently erased it. (I was transferring pictures from one laptop to a newer laptop & I think I lost some pictures in the process.) However, with that being said, I do appreciate the comment on your site that said you didn’t think it was a fabricated photo.

Yes, I absolutely did crop the picture because I could barely see it. But I never do anything else and I would never send you any hoaxed picture. Your way too smart for that! You have been dealing with this subject for a long time now and I’m quite sure you could pick up the fakes fairly quickly! I was surprised I didn’t see the purple one on your site!

To me, the purple was far more interesting than the green one and you also said I sent you two pictures but only one had a picture on it. I didn’t remember sending a second picture.

Maybe I did, but I wouldn’t want to send you blank pictures. In searching for my original, I found other UFO pictures I took all in the same month. I have attached several pictures and if you find any you are interested in, I could send in an official report through your site. Many of the pictures are completely unedited, some not even cropped.

I am still looking for the original to the purple UFO, but I did find the original of the green one you posted on your site. It is attached along with the other pictures.

UFOs NorthWest Note: The photo sent by the witness has been cropped and enlarged. I don’t believe that the sighting has been “fabricated,” but I have requested the original “unedited” photo. The witness saw two lights. Only one light shows up in the photo.

Radar Analysis and Computation Worksheet
Hanford, WA sighting of Large Orange Objects
October 18, 2015
Prepared by William Puckett
UFO Investigator and Meteorologist

Background: 2 Washington State Department of Corrections (DOC) Officers saw bright orange lights for around 50 seconds between 9:52 and 9:57 PM on Oct 18, 2015. The lights were sighted in a southwesterly direction. The lights were larger than yard lights and were about 25 to 30 degrees above the horizon.

The officers were traveling south on Highway 395 between Connell and Mesa, WA.

James Clarkson MUFON Director for Washington State received the sighting report and requested assistance with analysis of radar data. In response to this request I wrote a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requesting aviation radar data for the Pasco, WA (Tri-cities) area.

I received the radar data submission from the FAA about 2 months later (December 18, 2015).  The FAA provided the data that I requested.

Notes on Radar Data: The radar data were received for Pasco, WA Traffic Control and a NTAP (National Transportation Analysis Program) was also received. The NTAP included a long range radar from Fossil, Oregon which is about 100 miles south of Pasco, WA and the Pasco, WA Traffic Control radar.  (See Figure One to the left).

The closest returns on radar were about 18 miles to the southwest (near Pasco, WA airport). (See Figure Two below.)  The interesting thing about the data in Figure Two is that the Pasco radar report listed that returns were “target reports.” This suggests that data were filtered and weather returns, gr0und traffic, birds and radar angels were removed. This suggests that the remaining returns were actual moving aerial targets.  All of the primary returns are shown in Figure Two below.  A typical “unfiltered” radar map is shown in Figure Three below. The radar map in Figure Three is for Albany, New York.  You can see A “conglomerate” of returns and it is difficult to determine real moving targets while Figure Two shows small patterns of returns.

We can’t definitively say for sure if the radar picked up the objects seen by the witnesses, but we can say that radar returns were in the direction (southwest) and at the time (9:50 to 10 PM) that the witnesses saw the objects. The radar returns were around 18 miles from the estimated witness location and near the Pasco radar. (See Figure Four below.) Figure Four shows the area of returns and a zoom in showing the speed and direction of movement of the returns.

The zoom in box to the left is for returns detected from 9:50 to 9:51 PM. For the box to the left there were six radar returns in sequence.  The target was moving slowly east, then abruptly changes direction to the south-southwest at a higher speed and then turned east-southeast at original speed (38 MPH).  One can’t say for sure if each return represents the same target, but the targets were in sequence with each turn of the radar antenna. The targets were not detected after 9:51 PM.

The zoom in box to the right shows returns from 9:54 to 9:55 PM. The box to the right fits more closely with the witness observation time.  Again the speed of the target is slow (38 to 48 MPH) and moving to the west-southwest. The target then turned direction to the northwest and nearly increased it’s speed tenfold. Again we can’t say for sure if this is one target, but it  fits with the radar antenna rotation sequence. The direction of movement (westerly direction ) fits with what the witnesses saw. The targets were no longer detected after 9:55 PM.

Of course the targets could have been multiple targets, but may have showed up as one target on the radar scope if they were close together. The witnesses observed multiple targets.

There were also returns noted in the same area observed by the witnesses before the sighting time, but the witnesses would not have been in position to observe the returns.

Doppler weather radar data were collected from Portland, Oregon and Spokane, Washington. Both of these radars reach the Pasco, WA area.  Some light showers were observed a few hours prior to the sighting. Skies were clear at Pasco Airport at the time of the sighting. The Doppler radar maps did not show anything unusual. The radar sites did show some scattered showers, but the area was well removed from the sighting area. However, Doppler radars are not designed to detect aircraft. The radars have a narrow beam width (one degree) which means that objects will not be detected unless they happen to fly through the narrow beam.

The discussion below makes the assumption that the object(s) seen by the witnesses were detected by radar:

One of the officers said that his thumb would cover up the object. A thumb has a width of 2 arc degrees. (The moon has a width of 30 arc minutes which is about 25% the size of a thumb in apparent width.)  Let’s assume that the object had a width of 1 arc degrees:

Using trigonometry the width of the object would be around 1,650 feet if what the witnesses saw was detected by radar. For comparison purposes the length of a 747 aircraft is 231 feet with a wingspan of 211 feet.

The witnesses thought that the object(s) were at an elevation of 20 to 30 degrees. For computations we will assume that the elevation was 25 degrees. If we assume that the primary radar returns belonged to the object we can say the following:

Using trigonometry if the radar returns represented the object, the elevation would have just over 44,000 feet.

If the returns represent what the witnesses saw the objects would have been quite large and would have been very visible from the Pasco, WA area.  The fact that the time of the sighting was late (around 10 PM on a Sunday night before the week) and the fact that the objects were only visible for a short time may have resulted in fewer (in any) witnesses.  Also there is a possibility that the objects may have appeared larger to the witnesses due to light scattering in the atmosphere which can make objects appear bigger. This is particularly true if objects are lower on the horizon (25 degrees or lower).

Conclusion and Summary:

2 DOC officers saw 2 large orange objects to the Southwest while returning home from work around 10 PM on October 18, 2015.  The officers were near Connell, WA and were returning to the Tri-Cities area. The officers had never before or have since seen the lights.

The lights were near the Hanford Nuclear Facility in Richland, Washington.

Aviation radar data were heavily filtered which eliminates most superfluous returns (birds, weather, ground targets, angels, etc.)
Radar targets were detected in the direction and times when the witnesses saw the objects. The distance was large (around 18 miles).

The radar targets were only visible for 2 periods of time (9:50-9:51 PM & 9:54-9:55 PM) of around one minute. This is consistent with the brief time that the witnesses saw the objects. The radar targets were in a southwesterly direction which is where the witnesses saw the objects.

The targets were moving in a westerly direction at speeds of 38 to 48 MPH and then accelerated to over 300 MPH before vanishing from the scope. The radar detected this from 9:54 to 9:55 PM. This is consistent with the direction of movement reported by the witnesses and closest to the time (9:52 to 9:57 PM).

If the targets represent what the witnesses saw the objects would have flying around 44,000 feet and would have been over 1,500 feet in width.

The witnesses saw multiple targets. Perhaps the targets were so close to one another that the radar only painted one return?

The targets were close to Pasco Airport. One would think that others would have witnessed the objects if the radar targets represented what the witnesses saw due to their large size and proximity to the Pasco area.

Location of Sighting: Dana Point, California
Date of Sighting: December 2, 2013
Time of Sighting: 5:44 PM PST

Description: I see strange movement from craft out over the ocean all the time. Even hesitantly flying out of clouds to park itself in the sky to become what everybody would think is a star.

But, what you’ll see in this video is a bit different. I never saw it because it was not viewable to the naked eye. I used infrared video to see what I might capture and I think you’ll find the capture incredibly fascinating. Watch the entire video because it leaves then comes back before taking off for good. I was filming from a beach so most the activity you are seeing is out over the ocean. Sorry the video is so dark.

Thanks, and I would appreciate hearing your thoughts!

By the way, this video was captured on 12-2-13 on the beach in Dana Point, CA. The time and date are on the video which shows a UFO spitting out brightly lit objects that fall toward the ocean. I believe the activity helps confirm reports that ‘alien craft’ can be organic in nature. If you want any more information please feel free to ask, although I would rather not give out my phone number at this time. However, I am more than willing to speak with you.

Description: I was staying at the Valley Motel in Room 24 on the end. I went outside to smoke a cigarette and saw a blinking light floating towards the road. I got my phone camera. I started the first video on the side of Jacksboro high to film the one.

Then I noticed as it went across the street there were a lot more. I saw one man walking across street and asked him what those were. He said they were satellites, but he didn’t know and walked off. I filmed the one that hovered above the street light. Halfway through the 12 minute video I got a chance to run across street and film the other half. I only filmed there that long because I was being yelled at by manager asking what I was doing.

I said you don’t see them? The poor old man couldn’t. He made me go in. I tried to upload the video, but it was too big by mobile phone so I went back out and saw took small couple second video and 3 stills. The manager said that the police were called because I was in the street.

I went inside. It was about 20 minutes before the police came and the video is not the best.

I was worried I was going to jail and looked over the officers and I saw one, and said look see it.

And they did look. They put in their report that I was looking at night sky. They left and I watched in the door for about 10 more minutes.

The manager made me go back in.

Description: The witness (Toby) was walking around the Rattlesnake Lake with a hiking companion. They at once saw a bright light at about a 20 degree angle above the horizon to the west. The light became very bright and grew to about 1/4 the size of a full moon. The light would then get dim to the point that it almost would vanish. Then it would brighten again and then dim again. The light repeated this pattern for about 40 minutes. The light was mostly hovering and was moving very little. No sound was heard and some other aircraft were seen in the area. There were a few clouds in the sky and then the sky became cloudy. The light was actually visible through the clouds. The witnesses left the hiking area after about 40 minutes and then returned. At that time the object was observed to be straight up at 90 degrees. At one point during the sighting the witness could see a black outline when the light dimmed. The object was lost when the cloud cover thickened. Some light snow flurries were in the area and temperature was a chilly 37 degrees. The witness remarked that the skies were so bright that they didn’t need a flashlight to see to walk.UFOs NorthWest Note: The witness was quite familiar with aircraft and knew that the object was not a helicopter. (Because there were no flashing lights and there was no sound.) The object was not a planet because it changed luminosity and eventually moved overhead from the west. The object was not a satellite because it didn’t move fast enough. The object was likely not a hot air balloon because it was the wrong color (the color was white rather than yellow-orange which is the colors emitted by hot air balloons). The enhanced photo above does not look like a hot air balloon. Perhaps the object could have been a high altitude balloon? A check of winds aloft showed that winds were from the West to West-Northwest at 10 to 20 knots in the lower 10,000 feet of the atmosphere. The object moved from 20 degrees over the Western horizon to 90 degrees (straight up). A flotation device would move in this direction with a westerly (and light) wind component. Also Google is implementing a program called “Project Loon” where stratospheric balloons will deliver 4G cell phone service to areas devoid of coverage. However, Google is testing these balloons in foreign countries so it is unlikely to be an explanation for this sighting. Also the North Bend, WA area (near sighting location) is close to Seattle and has adequate cell phone and internet service.

The lights at times would form a circle and were visible for over an hour. The lights did not flash and were much bigger than the surrounding stars. Skies were clear at the time of the sighting. No sound was heard. One witness thought that he saw some smoke near the lights.

A clip of UFOs NorthWest’s interview with the witness is included in this report. (See above.)

Description: It looked like a stationary white light or orb on the edge of a chem-trail. If you zoom this photo in all the way, it looks like a grey metallic diamond shape behind a cloak of light in front of the object. I have 3 more photos of this object.

Response of Witness to Investigation Questions: Hi: Yes, I saw the object and took the photos. Did you zoom it in all the way and see what I was talking about? It was a grey metallic diamond shape object obscured by light or cloaked by the same color as the chem-trail clouds? You have to zoom these in all the way as well. In the first photo you can see an oblong circle around the light on the edge of the chem-trail. The 2nd photo is more obvious. Still zoom in all the way. Zoom it in until it’s just the object. It’s somewhat impressive and puzzling.

UFOs NorthWest Note: The witness took several photos of the object. He also observed the object. The photos were taken at very high resolution. The object appears to be spherical in shape until it is enlarged. Enlargement reveals a somewhat asymmetrical triangular shape. It appears that the triangular shape was surrounded by material of a light color and circular shape? The witness said that the object was of diamond shape. THE OBJECT IS NOT THE PLANET VENUS AS IT WAS NOT VISIBLE AT THE TIME OF THE PHOTO AND SIGHTING.
