A large triangular UFO was seen hovering in the skies above former home secretary Michael Howard’s home, according to Ministry of Defence files.

Government correspondence, local newspaper reports and details of an RAF investigation into the sighting near the MP’s home near Folkestone, Kent, all feature in UFO files released by the Ministry of Defence (MoD).

Eyewitnesses in Burmarsh and New Romney saw the ”humming” object, the size of two passenger planes, near Mr Howard’s home on March 8 1997, when he was serving as home secretary for the Conservative government.

Sophie Wadleigh, 25, from Hythe, reported the sighting to the Folkestone Herald.

She told the newspaper: ”It was so peculiar, it all felt really odd and I heard this humming noise.

”As I looked across the field I saw a large triangular shaped flying craft hovering about 300 metres off the ground.”

Ji Lane, 23 and Christopher Lee, 27, also witnessed the incident.

Mr Lane said: ”It was crazy – I was getting a drink in the kitchen when I saw these weird lights in the sky just over the field across the road from our house.”

Mr Lee added: ”It was a lot longer than a plane and went incredibly quickly – I have no thought what it was and we were both left speechless.”

Further newspaper cuttings reveal Chris Rolfe, co-ordinator of group UFO Monitoring East Kent (UFOMEK), warned at the time the UFO could have been looking for Mr Howard.

Mr Rolfe said: ”It would seem the UFO was disinterested in Sophie, the girl who reported it and watched it for quite a long time.

”This certainly makes it seem like it had a purpose and has left me wondering if its purpose had something to do with Mr Howard.”

UFOMEK compiled its own report on the sighting and sent it to the Prime Minister, Home Office and Ministry of Defence.

An eyewitness account in the UFOMEK report said: ”It was just a huge triangle thing, which was a lot larger than an aeroplane or anything like that.

”It had lights all around the outside, and this disc attached to the back, and a huge light on the front. I pulled up to a stop and as I did it shot off.”

It went on: ”I was really frightened by it and I’m not stupid. I don’t believe in anything like that (UFOs). This is not something I’ve ever seen before or like something we would have built.”

An RAF investigation into the sighting was undertaken, but the findings found nothing unusual The Air Defence inquiry said there was ”no such security incident” involving Mr Howard or and ”no such military activity reported anywhere, and, specifically, in the Kent/Folkestone area”.

The report added: ”Additional inquiries have confirmed that no unusual or unauthorised air activity, civil or military, was reported or observed in that area on that date.”

MoD responses to queries related to the alleged sighting said there was ”no evidence” to suggest a security breach.

One letter addressed to an un-named individual said: ”Your letters mention a UFO sighting over the home of the former home secretary Michael Howard, near Folkestone.

”Although the MoD has received reports of an alleged ‘UFO’ sighting near Michael Howard’s home on March 8 1997, MoD Air Defence staff have confirmed that there is no evidence to suggest any unauthorised incursion of the UK Air Defence Region on that date.”

I received mail not long ago from one of our readers who had a report to submit. He states that on the evening of November 21, 2008, he was driving on a rural road when he saw a group of flashing lights in the sky. His sighting occurred in Leesburg, Ohio.

He described his sighting as life changing, so be sure to check it out at Silent UFO over Ohio, and make any comments you wish.

This video was taken sometime in May, 2007 on my friend’s phone and I got a hold of it now. This is an unmistakable UFO sighting, although most people around didn’t believe it. This was taken in Annaikatti close to Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, South India. You can see the “lights in the sky” split and rejoin and even one apparently making a landing. You can also see the traffic passing by and hear my friends’ comments. This video was taken by Sanjana Soman on her Sony Erricson phone….

thisislocallondon – A mother and daughter had the fright of their lives when they saw two weird orange lights in the sky.

Nurse Sue Hentschel was driving her teenage daughter Jessica to a dance class when they witnessed a terrifying vision in the sky.

Their car was stuck in heavy Sydenham traffic on November 2 at around 6.10pm when they saw two mysterious lights.

Mrs Hentschel, of Stembridge Road, Anerley, said: “We saw these two lights which were orange coming towards us.

“My daughter looked up and said ‘Mum, what’s that?’

“I didn’t know. I just said ‘What the hell is that? What is it?’”

She says they stared dumbfounded for several minutes as the lights hovered over Hazeldene School.

Mrs Hentschel stuck her head out the window to make sure it was not a reflection she was witnessing.

Jessica took photographs of the objects using her mobile phone.

Mrs Hentschel said: “I was looking over at other people’s cars to see if they noticed but everyone was just trying to get home, traveling along in a daze.

“One light went in front as if they were coming nearer to each other.

“Then one just shot up into the sky at a million miles an hour. It shot into the atmosphere and disappeared.

“The other one just turned into an orange dot in the sky.”

Mrs Hentschel says she has never believed in aliens before but the out-of-this-world experience has completely changed her outlook.

She said: “If it was 1am on a Saturday and I’d had a few glasses of wine I’d know.

“I thought crikey, this is really incredible. I’m a total believer now.

“I reckon it was some sort of UFO activity, I really do. It really did look like nothing I’ve ever seen before.”

She added: “I don’t know if they were aliens or not. I guess they must have been aliens if something was inside.”

Mrs Hentschel admits the alien encounter has terribly affected her 15-year-ancient daughter.

She said: “My daughter’s terrified. It really scares her.

“I keep saying to her we’ve been chosen, we’re going to be abducted.

“I reckon I’ve frightened the life out of her.”

Many of the arguments against UFO are laughable. For instance debunkers will constantly emphasize mistaken identity. They do this on the media even though they know most UFO researchers agree. Most Ufologists believe 80% or more of sightings have natural explanations. This tactic that debunkers use, that of pretending your adversary doesn’t do his homework, is an ancient ploy. Your adversary ends up always on the defensive.

But there is something very incorrect with this argument, mistaken identity, when you pit it against some UFO reports. Sometimes, these UFO witnesses see more than lights in the sky or featureless objects. Sometimes they see detailed “machines”. And some of those machines are beyond our technology. Let’s take a look at some of these reports and choose if these UFO witnesses could have been mistaken.

This close encounter from the small book, “Appalachian Case Study: UFOs Sightings, Alien Encounters” by Kyle Lovern, is very fascinating because of the fantastic detail.

Dave Campbell was hunting in 1968 he came upon a hovering triangle above the trees. He had just finished high School and had enlisted in the military to be sent into Vietnam. On this day he was about to get the shock of his life. “It was no more than 30 yards away. I know this sounds crazy but the best way I could describe it is it look like the bottom of a Norelco shaver. I watched in awe for several minutes.”

He emphasized how the sides of the object were smooth and rounded it’s body like matte-aluminum silver. It was also emanating a loud whispering sound.

“There are what appeared to be three rotor blades; one mounted on each corner. The one nearest to me (with internal rotating blades or fans) started to drop. Then. in response to the rotor movement. the whole object went smoothly in a westerly direction out of the hollow. To be honest at this time I was frightened to death….I watched as the triangle object went out and over my parent’s house” It was much larger than their house.

“…It was then that I saw that the rotor blades, complex coils or whatever they were, starting to change.” He watched as the bottom rotors dropped down modifying the direction the object was going. Simultaneously the silver grayish object started to go in a forty degree angle as it departed. “When the thing started to go, it just shot off like a rocket and was gone in seconds.”

Dave had another sighting after the war, which seems to be a pattern with people who have had such a close encounter.

There are only three answers to what Dave witnessed which I can reckon of: hoaxing, insanity or he told the truth. He witnessed an advanced flying machine. Of course, this could be dismissed if it wasn’t one of so many of the close up encounters where advanced machines are reported.

Here is a case which was clarified as psychological by Project Bluebook. This is from a book called CE-5(Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind) by Richard Haines, PHD

Air Force Lt. J. Long was driving about thirty miles from Tonopah NV when his car engine quit suddenly. As he go

t out to look under the hood he heard a “steady high-pitched whining noise.” As he looked toward the noise he noticed four disk shaped objects sitting on the desert sands, 300 to 400 yards away. He started to walk towards the objects and this is how he described them. “The four objects were iden

tical – each glowing brightly with transparent domes on top. The objects were fifty

feet in diameter, eight to twelve feet thick, and were supported by three half round landing gear about two feet in diameter.

” As Lt. Long continued ap

proaching the objects he got within 50 feet of the objects when the high pitch inc

reased to the point where it hurt his ears and the objects started to lift off. “…the protruding gears were retracted after the take-off.” This is what a flying machine would do- retract the landing gear.

Another Fascinating case because of its timing:

Location. Near Tres Coracoes, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Date: January 13 1996

Time: 0800A

Traveling north on the heavily traveled Fernao Dias highway 35-year ancient Carlos

da Souza suddenly heard a muffled roaring sound, and he wondered if something was incorrect with the truck. He stopped to check, but when he stepped down from the cab he realized the noise was coming from a cigar-shaped craft about 400 ft in the air just west of the highway. It was silver colored, reflecting the sun, and appeared to be 30 to 40 ft long and 12 to 15 ft wide. It had at least four windows along the side and what looked like a huge jagged hole four or five feet in diameter in the front. There was a long dent or crack running from the hole back to the middle of the craft, from which point white smoke or vapor was coming out. The craft was traveling north, nearly parallel to the highway, at about 40 to 50 miles an hour. Astonished, Da Souza jumped in his pickup and followed the UFO for about 10 miles. It soon crossed over to the east side of the highway and eventually passed over some small mountains. Then it went into a 30-degree dive and disappeared from sight. Da Souza was worried it had crashed and desperately searched for a way to get to the area. After 20 minutes or so, he found a dirt side road and turned onto it. A few minutes later he drove over the crest of a hill and there before him was wreckage spread all over a hilly field of knee-high grass. He also saw about 40 soldiers and two male nurses, two trucks, a helicopter, an ambulance and three cars—all Army vehicles. Everyone was busily running around picking up pieces of debris. One truck already held a chunk half the size of a mini-van. A strong smell of ammonia and ether hung in the air. It was a terrible crash and Da Souza doubted that anyone had lived through it. He was surprised to see anyone there, let alone the military. He didn’t know at the time that the site was only seven miles from the ESA Army base in Tres Coracoes. He parked and walked toward the wreckage, thinking he could help. He picked up a piece of aluminum-like material that was very light. It floated to the ground when he dropped it. Then one of the men spotted him, shouted, and in an instant, armed soldiers rushed toward him, ordering him to leave immediately. He protested, thinking someone had been terribly hurt or killed, but a corporal screamed at him to get out. Da Souza was so astounded by what he’d seen that he abandoned his trip and headed back toward Sao Paulo. About 10 minutes later he stopped at a roadside restaurant to have coffee and reckon about what had happened. He was sitting there two hours later when

a car drove up with two men in civilian clothes, but military haircuts and bearing. One got out and walked up to him, questioned if his name was Carlos da Souza, then questioned what he’d seen. He was then warned not to say anything to anyone and threatened, the men then left. (This occurred one week before the incidents in Varginha). This case seems to indicate the flying machine was hurt with a cut in it’s hull.

Another UFO report, rather recent, of a Machine happened in Texas:

“Friday, February 29, 2008-In early January, Ricky Sorrells saw something he could

n’t clarify. Nothing could have prepared him for it — or how his life was going to change…The event that changed his life started, innocently enough, with a simple desire for a peaceful afternoon of hunting. Sorrells was easing through a stand of trees some distance behind his home. Between the dead leaves crunching underfoot and the briers brushing up against his legs, he realized he wasn’t being as stealth as he could. He slowed for a moment and, casually glancing upward, continued on — and then froze in his tracks. “I took a step or two, and then I realized what my eyes had seen,” he said. “I looked back up, and there it was. It covered the sky; it covered as far as you could see … as far as you could see to the left and to the right and out in front.” He remembered his rifle and, lifting it up, looked at the object through the scope. He didn’t see anything that resembled rivets, seams or welds.

“And the thing was huge. It was so huge that I couldn’t see the edges through the canopy of the trees. I couldn’t see past it. I started looking at it, all the details. There weren’t anybolts, no rivets, no welded seams. It was smooth. It was like a barn gray, (INAUDIBLE) a sandy gray.

It had cones protruding, going up into it, larger at the bottom going up to smaller at the top. It — really, it took off like this. In my mind, I would have thought it would have raised up to take off for some reason, but it didn’t. It remained flat and it took off at a 45-degree angle. And that was it.” This case was so significant that Sorrells claimed he was hounded by helicopters and even threats after it went public. This type, and other types, of harassment have been reported by quite a few witnesses who come forward with detailed encounters.

There are hundreds of reports like these – flying machines with gears and landing pods and some equipment you can’t name. One case has stood the test of time more than any other the most well-known case: Betty And Barney Hill:

“Approximately one mile south of Indian Head, the craft rapidly descended toward the Hills’ vehicle causing Barney to stop directly in the middle of the highway. Opening the car door for a closer look, he pocketed his pistol and grabbed his binoculars. The craft descended to approximately 80-100 feet above the Hills’ 1957 Chevrolet and filled the entire field of the windshield through which Betty was observing. Barney stepped away from the vehicle and went closer to the object, which shifted like a pendulum from the west side o fthe car, east above the adjacent field. Using the binoculars, Barney claimed to have seen about 8 to 11 humanoid figures who were peering out of the craft’s windows, seeming to look at him. Suddenly, with military precision, all but one of the figures went to what appeared to be an instrument panel as though they were about to perform an vital task. The one remaining figure continued to look at Barney and communicated a message to him to “stay where you are and keep looking.” At that instant red lights on what appeared to be bat-wing fins started to telescope out of the sides of the craft and a long structure descended from the bottom of the craft. The silent craft approached to what Barney estimated was within 50-80 feet overhead and 50-100 feet away from him.

So, could these witnesses have mistaken these objects for any of the bull crap fodder explanations thrown out to the media by way of debunkers and scientists? There are too many credible witnesses to be just lying. There are so many of these machines sighted and reported that debunkers have to scramble to find an answer. So what is their answer? The only answer they could find: “secret aircraft”. But, from long ago, machines have been sighted and no matter what era the reports come these reported air machines are still technologically superior.

Location. Proskurov, Podolsky region Russia
Date: December 24 1912

Time: evening
The mayor of the village of Vyhilevka was walking towards Proskurov when he saw a dimly lit “machine” on a nearby field. He came closer and saw two men standing next to it, who seemed to be wearing military uniforms. The mayor questioned the men who they were and where they were from but received no answer. The men then chased the witness and caught him dragging him inside the “machine”, despite his protests. In the air the “pilots” questioned the mayor numerous questions but he refused to answer. Soon the object landed and he was released near the city of Bar 60 km from Vyhilevka. The “machine” then disappeared in an unknown direction.

Machines mean structure, a material world, the need to be enclosed in something for protection. This shouts to high heaven that this is Extra-Terrestrial who have societies like young earths. I believe anyone seriously investigating this subject should never, discount or apologize for believe that beings from other planets are the best explanation for many UFOs
