Large Rectangular Object With Rows Of Lights In New Zealand

A mother riding with her children gave this description: April 24, 2021 2021 UFO Sightings Reported In New Zealand

 Dark; clear evening.  The witness and her children were entering the Equestrian Park on the outskirts of Hastings in their vehicle when they observed airborne lights approaching – two rows of lights one above the other, (possibly 12) red at the top and green along the bottom, outlining a ‘massive’ rectangular (or possibly cylindrical) long narrow shape.  There were no visible white, flashing or strobing lights as there would be on an aircraft or helicopter at night.  They could not see the surface or details of the object other than the lights.

The witness joked with her children, “There’s a UFO!”  At that point, she felt quite calm, not at all scared, and she reported, “I think I knew it wasn’t a plane.”

They stopped and watched it approach from some distance away, slow and low, just rows of visible lights, but no body visible.  The children had their car windows down, but none of them heard any sound associated with the object, and only recalled this fact the following day.

On reflection, the witness found it bizarre that her reaction to the sighting was so nonchalant, and that shortly afterwards having entered the park grounds, she did not think to comment about it to other people or ask if anyone else had seen it.  At that time, most people involved in the weekend equestrian event were in their trucks, but there were others standing around in groups chatting, but nobody commented about a sighting.  It was not until the next day that the witness again recalled the details.

Are you up for one more from the same page? - Same Day Same Timeframe. Different location. 

The sighting occurred after dark on an absolutely clear night, and 2 days off a full moon.  Duration of sighting just over 20 minutes.

The reporting witness and her daughter (driver) were leaving the Equestrian Grounds on the outskirts of Hastings.  As they drove through one of the exit gates the witness saw an airborne unusual configuration of lights to the right of them, maybe 200 to 300 metres away.  It had red and green lights, not flashing in rows, but showing an outline of a rectangle.  The lights/object was flying very slowly, perhaps the speed of a small plane idling in to land, and it was very low, about the height of a tall poplar tree.  There were 3 or 4 lights in each row and the size of the object looked substantial, far too large to be going that slowly and at that low altitude.

The reporting witness became nervous, thinking they were about to see a plane crash, even though she could not recognise the object as being a regular aircraft she would often see in this area, and she could not see a hard surface on it, just the lights.  Because it was low, she briefly lost sight of it behind trees.

As the car turned right onto Stock Rd and then left onto Maraekakaho Road, the object continued on its path now going over the Mangaroa Prison.  The witnesses were now able to see it again in full view and realised it was not going to crash.  As they went around the Maraekakaho roundabout and headed towards Hastings, the object was still to their right passing over paddocks and orchards.

By now they had decided this was definitely no ordinary aircraft.  As they neared the edge of town the object had disappeared over the first lot of houses and they thought it had gone, however just as they were about to pass the York Rd turnoff to Flaxmere, they could see it banking as it turned back towards them.

Her daughter quickly pulled over and the witness jumped out of the vehicle with her IPhone to try and capture a photo as it passed over.  It appeared to hover over and back a bit from the powerlines and the streetlight on the opposite side of the roadway and diagonal to them.  The witness quickly took 3 Live Photo’s then tried to alter the mode to video, but had trouble with this and took 2 still photos.

The object then flew off towards Flaxmere.

On examining the photos with the times on them they were very surprised to realise they had been parked up for 16 minutes and that for 14 minutes the witness had not taken any photos.  (Photos were inconclusive as there were a lot of lens flares and anomalies in the photos caused by temporary streetlights around roadworks.)  The two women had no recollection of what happened in those 14 minutes and both thought they were at the crossroad for 2 minutes at the most.  They did not hear any noise coming from the object.

On Monday the witness rang Bridge Pa Aerodrome to ask if anyone else had reported anything.  The duty person stated there had been 3 aircraft doing formation flying Sunday night, but this was the night after this sighting.  The witness commented, “But can they hover?”

The witness stated: “After travelling out that way (to the Equestrian fields) every day for 20 odd years, I have never witnessed anything like this and would be happy if I never did again!”

Creepy V Shaped UFO Over Ireland - March 2022

 With endless "UFO" stories to choose from.... it's hard to pick the one right for this blog after a two year absence. How about one from this month...just a couple weeks ago...that was seen ALL OVER Ireland..... and yet NOT ONE video...even a bad one can be found via a media search and a YouTube search. That alone puts it into the segment "strange" these days. 

(Uses the "that's the 2020's for you" - tag)

So, here's a few links - it was even seen by someone known in Ireland...giving it more credence?

Bright V-Shaped Object Over Ireland

One of the more well-know witnesses of this mysterious UFO in Ireland was former X Factor star Tabby Callaghan.

“I was out having a cigarette out the back and I looked up and I see a thing, initially I thought it was a flock of geese and I realized very quickly it wasn’t,” he recalled. “Then I screamed to Anna to come out quick and my partner seen it as well. “I would describe it as an upside down W, but except it looked like it was made of light. It was much lower even than a domestic flight. “It went over our house, it was very slow, it wasn’t fast and here’s the creepy thing, it was totally silent as it went over the house. It was mind blowing to be honest...

Here's the Facebook take of the Ireland UFO Group UFO Network Ireland with over 100 comments.

Image of what Ireland V Shaped UFO Looked Like

This is the computer image the known person posted at the Ireland UFO group he joined after seeing the UFO. It's an interesting thread.

And finally just one more "source" of the story with absolutely NO videos or pictures...hmm.

Strange and Creepy and yes, the war in Ukraine gets mentioned.... lots of speculation about high high tech being involved.

Strange Or Normal? 2018 Reactions To "UFO" Lights In Ontario Canada

There's a lot to contemplate in the previous 37 "Strange UFO" Stories on this blog....but..I think this is the first that I'm posting because of the reactions - you'll need to see and hear how the folks "in the neighborhood" are reacting compared to how the woman who stopped her car, took the video, and ultimately...filed the MUFON report. 669 have viewed the video which you can also see 2018 UFO Videoed Over Ontario Canada or watch it below....warning...crude language. Again...cue in on the reactions then read my take below the video.

MUFON CASE 95067

====================================

So....your take?..... What I took away from this somewhat amazing video is the FREAKED out reaction of the lady taking the video.... and the TOTALLY CALM reaction...with REASONS.... by the folks of the neighborhood (who may have seen this before?)..... as you heard...quite quickly.... DRONES and Chinese Lanterns were offered up as "what it was"....

As with most videos of this nature.... it's hard to tell... especially without more info as to how the event happened or began ...IF I were a betting man....I'd say the odds favor DRONES with ORBs being favored over Chinese Lanterns... Interesting and Strange.....and probably very predictive of how folks react to UAP in 2018.

Reported 50 Years Later - Man Twice Sees UFO Craft And Humanoids, Outside Las Vegas

I guess he hit the jackpot as a student walking the hills (after being in class at New Mexico Highlands University) - twice seeing a similar craft and once seeing it landed and humanoid personal outside of it.... enjoy the read...reported to MUFON earlier in Oct 2018. I came across this report at UFO Stalker which is like a mirror site of MUFON and searchable.

Detailed Description

there are 2 events described here. i've never before reported this to mufon. i've told a small number of people but never reported it to anyone "officially". it was simply never important enough to bother, and i'm not going to describe the incidents in 2 different reports.

 i was 16 and going to new mexico highlands university. most kids cut class to party or just screw off. i used to cut class to go hiking in the mountains or foothills not too far away.

 both times, i was walking n along the crest of a ridge west of las vegas.

 both incidents happened at about the same time in the afternoon, about 14:00 plus or minus 3 hours (11:00 to 17:00).

 each time, the craft and occupants were about 1000 meters to my north and about 30 meters below me in the valley at the bottom of the ridge.

 each time, the craft present was cylindrical, tapered at each end, presented perpendicular to me (i.E. its longitudinal axis ran east and west while i was walking north). the craft "looked" to be about 7 to 8 meters in height, and about 18 to 20 meters long. it was a dull gray, not shiny. as both times were during the day in the summer, there were no lights visible.

 the first time, the craft was hovering just about tree top level.

 the second time, the craft was on the ground and several personnel, humanoid, in gray coverings. the personnel were not human dressed in something tight fitting although i can't tell you how i know that, or at least suspect it.

 each time, i can remember seeing the craft and personnel for only a minute or so. the next thing i remember is walking out of the hills down a road with the state hospital for the criminally insane to north (my left) and the graveyard to the south (my right). it was night, and i'd walked what should have taken me only about an hour. it should have still been daylight.

 seeing the craft and personnel didn't excite me even though i had "studied" ufos (a *really* stupid acronym; etv works better) when i was younger. no fear. i was calm for the *very* short time that i remember observing and walking towards the craft.

 when i found myself walking back down a road toward town, at dark, with an asylum on one side and a graveyard on the other, i was, briefly, more concerned about the asylum and graveyard than having just seen an etv and personnel.

 i didn't question it at the time. i wasn't uncomfortable. i never reported it simply because i don't care about attention.

 and, no, i didn't give my real name. i worked with a clearance for too long not to be somewhat paranoid. and if you ask me if i care, to quote rhett butler "frankly my dear, i don't give a damn."

--------------------------------------

Obviously, based on the description...the witness also experienced "missing time" despite this not being a commonly described phenomena at the time. That said...a better description of the beings might have been helpful. And yes...the New Mexico Highlands University is in Las Vegas.

Multiple Witnesses See Group Of Short Grey Aliens By Campfire In Canada In 1980

They waited 38 years to tell MUFON and the report just appeared a week ago.... the website UFO Stalker provides the full report of which I provide a sample below: (location was Raymond, Alberta) 

"Myself and a couple of my friends were coming back from the new dayton bar from picking up a case of beer each for the party our friend and bandmate was having on his farm as his parents were on holidays in california. as we got close to raymond on the southeast access road, i think it was the driver who suggested that we stop by aldred’s coulee, a popular party spot just a few miles south of town, to see if anyone we knew was there? he figured we would invite them out to the party we were going to as we were all guitar/bass players and the host was the drummer and we were going to be playing in one of the outbuilding. there was also a pool, it was going to be a lot of fun for sure! well, as we approached the turn off into the coulee we could see firelight dancing off of the leaves of the large trees at the back of the clearing by the old dilapidated stone house. there was a bit of a ridge between the clearing and the entrance so we couldn’t see who was there as we pulled in until we topped the knoll and holy %@#$!!! there wasn’t a person to be seen, instead what we saw was a group of small, approximately 4’ and 2’ tall, very thin beings with large heads and big, black, almond shaped eyes! they had a bluish/grey colouration to them, very thin bodies, arms and legs. i don’t recall seeing a nose or mouth as they were about 25 yards away. it didn’t seem like they were clothed, although there suits may have been the colour of their skin, but they looked naked to me! they looked exactly what others have reported seeing, the greys people say they see you know? wow! it scared the ‘you know what’ out of us!!! the strange thing about it was that there was a small campfire burning, not large at all, normal sized, but there wasn’t anyone there, nor any vehicles??? i don’t know why they were standing around the pit, other than they may have been showing the smallest ones; i can only assume they were their children, how archaic we humans are, still using fires for heat and cooking??? ....

Now...those that read my blog or state UFO blogs...know that I occasionally will search MUFON reports for "entities" or "aliens" with a tag.... for example...here's a post I did on my Florida State UFO Blog - that showed 10, yes 10 MUFON reports in 2016 from Florida...mentioned entities.
