Witness Testimony

My ex husband and I in the summer of 1985 were driving on Parkman Road and saw a large disk floating above a house, through the trees, as we were driving down the street. He slapped on the brakes and backed up and we glimpsed as it flew straight upwards and was gone. It happened so fast. It was about 7 PM.

The chrome (brushed nickle in color is best described) disk shaped aircraft had “colors around” as if painted onto the chrome. We also saw lights that shined down but were very dim and shining downwards. It was about the size, or a bit bigger, than a house roof. And had it wanted to land, there would have been no room anyhow. Nobody has ever believed us so we never told too many. LOL!

Description: A woman and her aunt were driving and her aunt first saw an object that she thought was an airplane. The niece said that the object was too big to be a plane and had a spherical shape. The witness stated that the object was also too big to be a drone.

The object was close to the car. The object flew over some trees and shined spotlights towards the ground. The witness thought that the object was the size of a small house.

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.

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.

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: Asker, Norway
Date of Sighting: October 10, 2015
Time of Sighting: 5:20 PM Local Time

Description: I am 30 years old and I am from Norway. On Saturday October 10, 2015 I had an experience that I cannot explain. I was a passenger in a car and on my way home from a course in a location called Asker.

I suddenly became aware of a very bright cigar formed object on the sky. Right behind the object a smaller object of the same shape occurred. I was looking at these two objects and I was trying to understand what it was. It was so big, but with no wings and suddenly it disappeared. I was looking around in the sky trying to find it, but the sky was empty. Five Seconds later it suddenly appeared again in the sky, but this time in a new shape and much, much closer to the car I was sitting in. It was V-shaped and upside down if you understand. It was very white and bright but no lights. It was V shaped upside Down and squared like boxes. So I had a 3D sight of it. It was not just a flat thing on the sky, it had mass. (This is in the middle of the day). Behind the biog V it was a smaller V hanging. I was looking at this thing and I was trying to make sense out of it, but I could not understand what it was.

My friend who was driving the car did not see it because she was looking at the road. I was planning to tell her to turn her head around to look at it, but I could not make myself tell her to look. I felt paralyzed by the sight and I was to busy in my head trying to find out what this thing was. And then suddenly it disappeared! The sky was empty again. The big, huge thing was just gone.

When I came home I started to look up pictures on Google and I found this web page with the Woman and her 21 year old son telling her story that is similar to mine. The shape is the same I guess, but the object I saw was an upside down V. And I did see a cigar shaped object first and then it suddenly became V shaped after disappearing and reapparing again. I am just looking for answers. Do you have more information about others seeing stuff like this V shaped thing that I did see this weekend? I have never seen anything like this. The thing was just hanging in the sky. I am just confused. I will be happy if you got more stories like this.

PS: I also attached a drawing on what I did see. Ha ha it is not the best drawing, but this is the best I can do.

Number 1. is how I did saw the objects the first time, and number 2. is how I saw the Objects the second time it occurred in the sky.

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: The witness called and reported his encounter about 4 months after it occurred.

He had been in bed and woke up and saw an entity in his room. The entity was gray colored, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and had humanlike attributes.

The witness got up and let his dog outside. He at once saw a triangular UFO hovering near his home. He also saw a little girl while outside. When he went inside he saw a figure through the glass in the door that looked like the entity he saw when he awoke in his room.

He rushed down to his mother’s bedroom and crawled through a fireplace to reach it. Next he remembers something “talking” to him through his head.

Then he heard all windows opening. He said that everything went white after that.

He next remembers waking up the next morning. He recalled that his tongue was very dry. He also recalled some shaking to the point that he thought that an earthquake occurred.

He discussed the experience with his parents the next morning. This is not the first experience that the witness has had.

The witness is mentally sound and does not take drugs. He has been diagnosed with ADHD and sometimes takes medication for it. However, he was not taking medication the night of his encounter.

Description: I saw an object that was boomerang shaped and cloud (white) colored. You could almost see through it. A bright white light was traveling along side it.

It was moving in a south-east direction at approximately 900 to 1350 MPH and it was silent. I couldn’t tell how high up it was.

It was maybe was at 1,000 feet altitude. It took 4 seconds to move over my head and disappear over the mountains into the blue sky. I was trying to figure out what I was looking at for the first few seconds.

Then it made a maneuver just before it disappeared that made the hair stand up on the back of my head. It moved like it was a snake turning it’s head. It was very spooky!

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: I was driving home from my overnight shift. The sky was beautiful blue and there was not one cloud. I couldn’t help but notice a large bright white rectangular object in the sky beyond my home. It simply hovered. It didn’t move at all. Both my son and daughter witnessed it as well. By the time I went to grab a camera to take a photo the object was gone. I have never seen anything UFO related before and this was quite impressive. I am trying to find others who may have seen it as well.

More Information Supplied by Witness: The experience was very surreal. To me, one couldn’t help but notice this object. As I stated, the sky was very blue with no clouds which made this object stand out. At first glance, I must admit that I thought it was a blimp, but it was not. And it wasn’t “cloud white,” but brighter. It was completely rectangular with a section atop on the left side that appeared to be square with an arched top (sort of a “Lego” block appearance). Stranger still was the fact that it wasn’t moving at all. It was completely stationary. My adult son saw it while taking the dogs out in the morning, and my adult daughter saw it while returning home from the grocery store. I didn’t think my iPhone would capture it very well, so I went in my home to grab my Canon camera and zoom lens. By the time I returned outdoors (approximately 3 to 4 minutes) it had simply vanished. I looked all around, but couldn’t locate it anywhere in the visible sky.

It is very difficult to believe that nobody else saw this. However, I have posted on Twitter and Facebook with no responses. If it had just been me, I might question it, but all three of us witnessed this very large object.

It is certainly something that we will never forget, and I know that I will forever wonder exactly what it was that we witnessed.

Originally, I had no information on this case.  However, within days, this case file quickly became the #1 downloaded case file… getting more than 8,000 downloads in just the first couple of days it was online.

After a day or so, the actual photographer wrote to me to clear up some of the information being touted by the media. Shockingly… they were disseminating the WRONG story about what really happened.

Below, is an email interview I did with the actual photographer… who gave some more details and cleared up a few things.  This was our exchange (No corrections have been made.)

These are the words of Emadaldin Pichgah, the original photographer:

Can you explain in detail how you were made aware of this creature?

At 1030 (lt) – 11.07.2013 when our vessel was standby in Persian Gulf (South Pars Area) one of my friends, Capt. M. Nikkhah made contact with me by radio and inform me that they discovered the huge unknown Carcass that floated in water in their position. So i proceed toward their location and try to approached to this creature. the point was that the horrible smell spread as much as all crew sense that from approximately 200 m (may e more) from the carcass. when we approached to carcass we shot some photos and also inform the position and course and speed of carcass drift to the nearest Drilling Rig this Carcass at that moment drifted in 120 degrees – 1 knt speed. Also the length of this Carcass was approximately between 33 to 39 ft. After 1 hour we left area because of horrible smell.

How long have you been at sea? Have you ever seen anything like this before?

I am chief officer with around 6 years experience and during this sea time i have never seen some thing like that. How ever i’ve never work in Fishing vessels, because Fishing vessels crew are more experienced about these cases.

What did your shipmates think?

Unfortunately every one had his own opinion. Octopus! Huge Shark or desperate whale! but no body couldn’t prepare any evidence or strong reasons.

Why was this originally said to be captured by the Iranian Navy?  Did you release the story, or did the media steal the photos from your page?

Honestly, i don’t know! I am working in Supply Boat in Offshore Field. If you notice to photos you can realized that the type of vessel in frame is Supply Boat not a War Ship. First time i sent photos to tabnak.ir –

(http://www.tabnak.ir/fa/news/334013/%D9%86%DA%AF%D8%A7%D9%87-%D8%B4%D9%85%D8%A7-%D9%85%D9%88%D8%AC%D9%88%D8%AF-%D8%B9%D8%AC%DB%8C%D8%A8-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%84%D9%82%D9%87-%D8%AF%D8%B1-%D9%BE%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%B3-%D8%AC%D9%86%D9%88%D8%A8%DB%8C)

just to ask the website visitors to discover the nature of this creature but in flash of light the photos spread in media and social networks. so i blame no body to stole this photo from my page but except tabnak.ir and mamnak.com nobody mentioned the source of these photos and just copy that.

Have you ever seen a dead whale carcass in the sea? Did it look like this?

Alive Whale yes, even one time we touch accidentally with one of them but dead whale no.

What do you think this is?

My knowledge about the sea mammals and animals in general is poor so i have no idea about this Carcass. Also regarding the type of tidal current in Persian Gulf its a little hard to believe some things drift from Ocean into the Persian Gulf near the Qatar beach.

My special thanks to Emadaldin Pichgah for the interview, and allowing us all access to the original, raw and high resolution photographs.  They are available for download below.

High Resolution Photos

The following was published by the Huffington Post shortly after the photos began circulating.

Update 8/12/2013 from The Black Vault: Thanks to the more than 10,000 people that have visited this case file as the time of this update, another discovery made in 2011, also noted as a mysterious and unidentified carcass, washed up from the sea onto shore.  Photos of this look nearly identical to whatever this creature was.
