Strange lights reported all across state (CA - anyone see these lights?)
Strange lights reported all across state
Chronicle Staff Report

Thursday, October 27, 2005


Residents across California and people as far east as Las Vegas reported seeing strange lights in the sky late Wednesday, according to Vandenberg Air Force Base on the central coast.

Base command staff at Vandenberg, Travis and Edwards Air Force Bases said there were no military aircraft in the sky that would have caused the lights. The Air Force bases also said there were no test missile launches Wednesday. Such tests have, in the past, resulted in light patterns that can be seen across the California coast.

San Francisco resident Tim Sinclair said the lights appeared to be near the cross at the top of Mount Davidson Park. Sinclair, who lives near the park, described them as a series of solid lights that appeared to be hovering. When viewed through binoculars, the lights appeared to vibrate, he said.

Edit: That is very interesting. I'm going to save the link and read it later. Thanks.

3. Patrick Fitzgerald flying his sleigh from the North Pole?
Maybe he's pressed Chimpy into service in a harness and in his flightsuit and red cocaine nose to lead the way.

5. That's a hub cap attached to the end of a fishing pole.
With a flash light shining on it.

6. It was overcast here all night last night.
I was sitting in my backyard relaxing between 10 and 11 pm last night, and I'm sure there were no lights below the cloud layer at that time.

Shame too, I haven't had a good UFO sighting in years :)

7. I'm surprised the Air Force is so forthcoming about not knowing
what these were. I bet within a couple days they'll be "flares" or something.
