Israel Dark Climbing Object
Ben Gurion International Airport -- I was on security guard duty at work on July 24, 2011, for a company that supplies natural gas. I was guarding the main gate. There was nobody else with me. About 200m from where I work sits Israel's only meteorological station. Every two days they release a weather balloon but this object was not a balloon.
About 5 km away sits Ben Gurion International Airport where I have often observed aircraft flying low over our installation in preparation for landing. I did not see any aircraft - but looking towards the northeast I noticed an unusual black speck high up in the sky. It appeared to be stationary at the time. My first thought was that it was another weather balloon but this particular object was dark grey or black in color. It appeared to have moved-it was drifting now towards the northeast and gaining altitude. It made no sound. I ran for my camera and took 3 pictures. It was ascending with increasing speed and eventually disappeared.
When I transferred the image to my computer the object took on the shape of an ice-cream cone, with two appendages appearing at the top and bottom. Thanks to Colin Frankel Thanks to MUFON CMS
Netherlands Disks
EINDHOVEN – Two disks were spotted flying over the city on March 13, 2012. My wife was working in a hospital on the 5th floor and took photos of a beautiful sunset. While looking at her photos she noticed these two lighted discs. She calls me immediately on the phone and told me the people in her office had seen them in the sky. UFOs are my special interest since I was 8 years old. It was excitement for her. So she calls me immediately.
The objects vanished in the clouds. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Atlantic High Altitude Bright Strobe
I’m the Co-Captain on a large corporate jet flying enroute from Canada to Italy over the Atlantic and was ready to make our regular position report to Shanwick Radio.
My colleague pointed it out to me on March 5, 2011, at 6:10 Z. We were flying at 41,000 feet over 54 N 30 W…The first signs of sunrise were occurring, but a noticeable brightness did not occur for another 45 minutes. It was very dark and very clear with the slightest suggestion of Northern Lights. Other Aircraft were visible to us that were over 100 nautical miles away from us. We often look for satellites and I have a star chart on my computer for reference.
Position 1 - We saw a very high altitude bright strobe like light between HIP 116584 and HIP 113726 A, at least 5 bright flashes, the last one, only half as bright, definitely not an airplane. It had a much too rapid a flash as compared to any tumbling satellite that I’ve ever seen. All flashes happened in less than a minute. Brightness was about a magnitude of 1.0 as compared to Spica.
Position 2 - less than a minute later, in very close proximity to HIP 1415, just under Cassiopeia, two more pulses.
Position 3 - again less than a minute later, near HIP 2912 in Andromeda, another two pulses, a bright one and a dim one. Total time elapsed was about 3 minutes. There was no navigation type lights associated with these "strobes". For tumbling satellites that pulse, you can normally still see them in between the brighter flashes. Thanks to MUFON CMS
