UFO SIGHTING REPORT

Nanaimo, British Columbia

February 14th 2006

Nanaimo, British Columbia Fireball/Meteor

Date: February 14, 2006
Time: Approximately 10:00 p.m.

I found your contact info on this web page: http://www.hbccufo.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3075 and thought I would drop you a quick line.

I had typed "meteorites over Nanaimo, BC" in Google to see if anyone has reported seeing them recently. I found this article by a Nanaimo couple who saw something similar to what I've seen, with your contact info at the bottom.

I live at the south end of Nanaimo, and tonight was the fourth time I've seen a "fireball" in the night sky in the last couple of months. The one I saw tonight was at approximately 10:00pm, as I was outside having a smoke.

All four of the sightings were in the same area of the sky (to the right and below the Big Dipper), and all but one (which was traveling South/West) was traveling in a North/North East direction. Each sighting has lasted approximately 3 seconds. They appear as a yellow/orange glow, quite large, about the size of an eraser on a pencil at arms length. Sometimes I've seen a tail, but tonight I didn't. It is very cold and clear out tonight. The objects travel at a high rate of speed, and the three I saw that were traveling North disappeared at almost the same place in the sky, not far from where I first saw them. They seem to travel straight and then shoot up very quickly before they disappear.

Could these be meteorites that I'm seeing? They are definitely not planes, and way to low for satellites.

I would be very interested in hearing what you have to say on these occurrences, and if you have had similar reports recently from others living in the area. Sincerely.

Thank you to the witness for reporting what was observed.

UFO Testament: Anatomy of an Abductee   - Raymond Fowler This book entails the life of one who has not only become internationally respected as a UFO investigator and author but now as a so-called UFO abductee. It is strikingly different from other works dealing with UFO abductions in that it will provide an overview of the complete life of an abductee from early childhood to sunset years of his life. The exciting descriptions of UFO sightings, investigations and documentation would be worthy of a book themselves. The Chief Scientific Consultant for the USAF UFO Project Bluebook, Astronomer Dr. Hynek is on record as stating: 'Raymond Fowler…whose meticulous and detailed investigations …far exceed the investigations of Bluebook.' However, this book is about much more than investigating UFO sightings. Throughout the warp and weft of the author’s UFO and paranormal experiences is the slow but sure realization that he has been investigated since childhood by the very phenomenon he was investigating!
