Idaho UFO Sightings in 2006

Electric Blue EMP in central IDAHO I was driving to work about 6 miles south of Bellvue, Idaho and for about a period of 2 seconds the sky lit up a electric blue. There were about 20 cars in front of me and i could see all their tail lights. All the lights in my car plus the radio shut off and all the tail lights of the cars in front of me shut off.

Also all the snow that had collected on the power lines all fell of at once. This event was obviuosly some kind of EMP but the question is: From What??? ((NUFORC Note: We would welcome other reports about the incident. PD)).

Rectangular object,bright lights in front. fainter ones behind, indicating shape longer thanis was wide, with no noise. I saw a strobing red light above me and assumed it was an aircraft.

It appeared to be quite high and I listened for some type of aircraft noise,but none came. It was moving from East, Southeast to the West. As it pass overhead , I could see three lights at it's front and still assumed it was an aircraft.

But, as it passed, I could then , curuiously see a row of lights just aways behind it and some faint lights interspersed in between indicating a rectangular shape that was longer than it was wide. There was no noise and a very even speed.

A small metalic hourglass shaped object slowly rotating and hovering parallel to phone lines and highway My wife and I were driving north on highway 95 near Tensed when we both spotted a small hovering object along the side of the road. The object was no more then 3 to 4 feet across, and vaguely shaped like an hourglass on it’s side. It was slowly rotating and hovering parallel to the phone lines next to the highway.

It was metallic with silver and red patches on it. It was hard to tell if it was making any sound because the car windows were rolled up, but no sound was heard through the windows over the sound of the car engine. It was moving at about walking speed but its rotation and movements were extremely regular.

We only saw it for a few seconds before we passed it in the car. It was such an odd sight that we have a hard time remembering exact details. On later reflection, we both thought it was odd that we didn’t stop the car to take a closer look, or to take pictures.

Sphere in Sky I am reporting this for my mother, here is what she wrote to me. She has pictures of these objects if you would like her to send them. I noticed this object in the sky, thought it was the moon.

It wasn't , the moon was in back of us. There were three objects in the sky, a metallic object that reflected the sun. The other two were just dark cylinders in the sky.

Strange object in photo I'm a Realtor and was taking pictures of a house to put on the flyer and internet. I never noticed anything at all until I looked at the pictures on my computer. The pictures are taken with a digital camera that records information about the pictures so it tells what date they were taken and time.

The one picture has a strange object in the sky above the house. When I looked at it the first time I never thought anything about it. I thought maybe it was on the lens, but none of the rest of the pictures taken at the same time have that object in them.

I'm not saying it's anything, but you can look at the photo and the others taken at the same time and decide for yourself. I was looking north east when the picture was taken.

We reported this last night, but found a video on your site that better describes what we saw. It looked JUST like this video: http://www.nuforc.

org/brillWhiteBall/brillWhiteBall.htm With the addition of red/white flashing on each side of the craft. It was too fast for a plane, too large for the position in the sky to be a satellie etc.

and it really did not to appear to be anything sort of meteor etc. on fire, as the flashing was rythmic and mechanical. No sound came from the object.

Full Report Text:

White/red glowing object, no sound as it moved from the East end of the Boise Valley, south to the north and then dissappearing. Round, disk like shape glowing mostly white with red, flashing on the edges looking as if it were bird like. It was dark outside, yet the object was lit up.

We believe the lights were flashing in each side of the disk, as if it were wings flapping. It sounds bizzar, yet both my 14 y/o son and I both saw this- and interpreted it as such! It was quite large, and moving swiftly, smoothly, steadily, and seemed quite high up in the sky. No sound came from it, as it moved from the East end of the Boise Valley (by Warm Springs Ave.

), south to the north and then dissappearing. It was larger than any satellite, much larger than any stars.

A small amber colored light in the trees across a large draw in the mountains above Wallace, ID. My little brother, best friend, and I were on a routine camping trip to the mountains above Wallace, ID one summer in July back in 2006. We have camped at this location, an abandoned mine shaft, many times over several years.

We used to spend entire weekends up here and around most of the mountains in the silver valley exploring old buildings, mines, and hiking into the forest to find untouched ruins. After a day of exploration we settled at the campsite which is a large flat area out of a steep hillside created by the removal of waste rock from the adjacent mine shaft. It has a view and we have traditionally shot clays over the edge because of the drastic drop off.

So we had a campfire, beers, dinner, music and just waiting for the stars to shine for a few hours. Around 10pm or so, it is almost completely dark and I noticed a light glowing on the hillside across the valley or draw. It was small but bright and amber in color.

It appeared to be near the ground or in the trees. It did not light up the ground or the trees, it did not move, it made no sound. We sat and reasoned about what it could be.

I am very familiar with the area and there are no roads or even trails on that side of the valley. The hillside is quite steep with tall trees and loose talus, making a camp spot unlikely. I also think we would have noticed people over there during the daylight.

I tried to get a closer look with a rifle scope but my scope was not strong enough. I did not shoot at the light for fear it was people or something more dangerous. My brother, friend, and I were very spooked and decided to retire to the tent and sleep with our small arms for the illusion of safety.

I woke up early before sunrise to pee and the light was gone. The next day, there was no trace of anything across the draw. We discussed the situation for hours the next day with no decent explanation.

I will try to find a picture of the area where the light was seen, again, we have been to this spot at least 10 times over the years. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

Full Report Text:

LARGE FAST DISC REPORTED TO MHAFB YEARS AGO A large object viewed from 2nd floor lunchroom at St.alphonsus hospital during bright daylight lunch hour. Witnessed by lab personel as well as 3 physicians and nurses.

About 15 witnesses in all. The flying object entered from southeast at rapid rate and came to immediate stop over the city of Boise. It appeared to be at the same altitude that we were watching from, which was probably 2 0r 3 hundred feet higher that downtown area.

From our position it appeared to be directly over the State Capitol. From our position, one could not determine its exact shape, because we had mostly a side view. It would be like looking at a disc from its side view.

Its height to widith ratio would be like 1 to 300. It appeared to be either metallic or glasslike in nature. I was much longer than any commercial aircraft.

It refracted colors sequentially along its entire width, and looked like how windows look from a distance when sunlite refracts off their surface. When it departed, it instantly accelerated at a phenonmenal speed and disappered over Bogus Basin to the north of Boise, about 20 miles from the city. It had no gas trail, and of course we were too far from the object to determine if there was any noise.

The peculiar fact was there was nothing in the local news after the event. I was asked to call airport and see if they had it on radar. I walked over to the lunchroom checkout counter and used the public phone and called the Boise tower.

I was given a UFO report number at Mountain Home air force base and made the call. I cannot recall to whom I spoke, but it was an officer, and he was anxious to receive all the information. After speaking with him for about 5-10 minutes, and answering all his questions, I asked him he he could confirm this sighting.

He replied, that they had picked up the object somewhere south of Salt Lake City and had lost it as it moved toward the North Pole. He also willing told me that the object's speed was in excess of 6500 miles per hour. He said that the airforce had nothing in its arsenal near that speed.

he thanked me and I have never told this story to the public before. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

A triad of star-like lights, arranged in the shape of a miniature Aries, slowly passed from NW to SE in a possible formation. I was doing some naked-eye astronomy, including successfully finding M-13 and seeing epsilon Lyrae as a double, plus occasionally looking for satellites, when I saw at approximately SSE (160°) azimuth 70° what appeared to be extra stars to the north of Serpens Caput, near the southern end of Hercules. They were arranged in a very flat triangle quite closely resembling Aries' three brightest stars in overall shape moving from northwest to southeast.

The lead 'star' corresponded to the one furthest from the other two and was easternmost of the triad. It was the faintest at a maximum magnitude of about 4.0-4.

5. The central object was brighter by about half a magnitude and always was to the WNW of the leading object. The final object was brightest at magnitude 3.

0-3.5 and was always positioned almost straight west of the central object. Compared to the other satellites I saw tonight, the triad moved more slowly, covering about 10° in a minute.

The spread of the objects was about 1/4 the actual size of Aries, covering maybe 2° in total width. The objects passed below naked eye visability a few degrees above Sagittarius, possibly blocked by a thin cloud that was covering that part of the sky. There was no deviation from straight-line flight, nor was there any changes of relative positioning of the three component lights.

Aside from some scattered clouds, the skies were steady with only minimal light polution near the horizon. The Milky-Way was very clearly visible, and stars were visible to below 6th magnitude. Seeing was excellent with virtually no turbulence (stars weren't twinkling).

I also have a very old record of another sighting I made in 1979, coincidentally in the area of Ophiuchus by Serpens Caput, but that time the objects were definitely not satellites, as they stopped and reversed direction. If I find the note, I'll make a separate report, as I recorded the date and time of observation when it had happened.

Large Black Triangle shaped craft seen north of Boise Idaho Saw one triangle shaped craft in lower northern sky. it was black, and moving very fast from west to east. Did not make any noise.

no lights. no other observable movement. The object was very large.

I estimate at least two to three hundred feet wide and about one mile away. very eerie looking.

Full Report Text:

cigar shaped craft with fire tail. It was a ribbed cigar shaped object with a fire trail behind it extending about 1 inch. It was headed North.

A friend and I where looking east and saw it heading North. It looked about 2 inches in length at arms length. it was travling in a strait line at a constant speed then it faded out from nose to tail.

the event was 2-3 minuts in length around 9:45 PM M.S.T.

Thursday June 1, 2006.

Incredible fireball breaking up over S/W Idaho A bright light caught my eye from the East, I turned and managed to say "Now, what is this?" In that time had moved almost directly Northeast of us. As it streaked across the sky at an amazing pace. We could see what appeared to be burning chunks breaking off of the fireball and burning up.

As it shot it's way on a Northwestern path it burned itself out. There was no sound, and no smoke or vapor trail. It was intensely bright, very noticable in the dusky evening sky.

It was not completely dark out as there was still a bright western sky. It's path was a straight line going from Southeast to Northwest. Looking East, East being twelve o'clock, it was sighted at one o'clock and shot to our northern side burning out at the eight o'clock position while traveling in the same straight line.

It may have been a meteorite, but never have I seen one that was so bright, incredibly close or large, that lasted for several seconds. I only witnessed it for three to five seconds, who knows how long it was visible since we had just walked out side?.

Bright white tail burning east to west parallel to the ground. Not even sure it was a "craft". I just know I couldn't identify it so it's a ufo.

It could have been space junk but it was traveling east to west with a long, bright white tail. It was running parallel to the ground at about 45 deg. from the horizon.

I'm just shocked it wasn't reported in the paper, or any word of mouth yet?! It was BRIGHT!.

I was sitting in the passenger's side of the car, and i saw a dark triangular shape in the sky, and then drift in the clouds. I used to go to school at the alternative school in Moscow, though i live in another town. At the time the school got out at around 5-6:00 pm.

I don't know the name of the road we were on, but it was down the road only a little ways from the alternitive school, and we were going to head west. We were sitting in traffic for a long time. It was sort of a windy cloudy day which is rather typical in Moscow.

My friend was driving the car and i was in the passengers seat. We sat there for quite some time and i began looking up into the white sky and suddenly i saw something that was pretty strange. I didn't say anything for a moment and i did not take my eyes off of what is saw that day.

In the sky was a dark colored triangular aircraft of some kind. It was perfectly triangular and was obviously not something natural. I wouldn't say it was black; more of a metallic dark grey.

I was comepletely amazed at what i saw, and for the most part i wanted to be practical and believe it had an obvious explaination. It seemed to have been standing in place but suddenly it started moving. It was moving steadily fast.

I moved fast enough that it was leaving sight rather quickly, but it wasn't leaving at lightning speed. It was a super cloudy day that day, and it was probably strange that we even saw it at all considering how overcast it was. I watched it go into the clouds and i kept looking out for it, but i simply didn't see it at all.

My friend then spoke up and told me that she had just seen something really weird. She hadn't known that i had seen it too. And my i told her that i had seen it and we talked about it for the ride home.

I kept looking for it all the way home, but i didn't see anything strange. I decided to believe it was nothing, and when i told adults, they sort of looked at me as though i didn't know what i was talking about, since i was only sixteen at the time. I gave up trying to get anyone to believe me and soon i quit thinking about it, though i never forgot it.

A couple nights ago something sparked my memory and so i decided to look it up on the internet and i did some research. I didn't even know that triangular shaped UFO's are reported but i found out that they are. And i looked at the description and sure enough, the descriptions had an uncanny resemblance to what i saw.

So, i looked into it further. I typed in something about triangular ufo's seen in Moscow Idaho. I didn't think i would get anything.

I found a reporting on this website that took place on the same date someone else had reported a sighting. I also noticed that that it is not particularily common for Moscow to have reported UFO sightings on this website. But mainly, i was take away that it was on the same day.

So my friend and i were not the only ones to see it, and not only that, but they saw a triangle as well. It is all rather eerie and too ironic to be an accident.
