A PARTIAL HISTORY OF UFOS' IN THE KINGSTON, ONT. AREA
|
|
|
|
Feb.26,1941: A strange light resembling a long comet with stars
|
|
at the end of it passed across the sky at 9 pm and disappeared
|
|
into the south.
|
|
|
|
Aug.10, 1950: At Wolfe Island, near Kingston, strange patterns of
|
|
lights travelled in a half-mile wide circle in the eastern night
|
|
sky. Sometimes only one patch of light was visible, sometimes two
|
|
and occasionally three. They rotated clockwise at varying speeds and
|
|
changed places without a discernable pattern, completing an orbit in
|
|
an average of 8 to 9 seconds. Occasionally, one light remained
|
|
stationary while the others continued revolving. As they passed
|
|
over the St. Lawrence River, they were clearly reflected in the water
|
|
|
|
Jan.21,1973: In the evening, a glowing object, looking like a "fire
|
|
from a roman candle", was seen flying about 1500 feet above the city.
|
|
It seemed to get bigger, then smaller and was dropping illuminated
|
|
particles. Then, it shrivelled up and died. The sighting lasted
|
|
about 90 seconds.
|
|
|
|
Jan.22,1978: In the early morning, a mysterious object looking like
|
|
two triangles fitted together base-to-base hovered over the Kingston
|
|
Sewage Plant on Hwy 2 E, just east of the city and came within 500
|
|
feet of the plant. After being in view for approx. 90 seconds, it
|
|
shot up into the sky at a 45 degree angle and disappeared at a high
|
|
rate of speed.
|
|
|
|
Feb.,1978: An object with four round lights, one green, one red, the
|
|
other two white and all flashing, flew over the city's west end.
|
|
|
|
Nov.,1978: A flying object shaped like a circle with something
|
|
sticking out of its' sides hovered over some bush near HWY 2 W,
|
|
between Odessa and Napanee, near Kingston.
|
|
|
|
Apr.,1980: An object with red and blue flames coming from it sped
|
|
over Kingston towards Lake Ontario where it then made a quick arc in
|
|
the sky and headed back over the city before disappearing into the
|
|
west.
|
|
|
|
Jul.8,1986: Two bright objects, orange in colour and diamond shaped
|
|
appeared over the north end of Kingston around 930 pm. Then at 1130
|
|
pm,a strange green light or flash was seen in the sky.
|
|
|
|
Jul.9,1986: A bright orange object was seen very low on the north
|
|
horizon in Kingston. It hovered for about 5 minutes around 11pm and
|
|
was a lot bigger and brighter than the object seen the night before.
|
|
|
|
Aug.12,1986: One hundred amateur astronomers stargazzing at
|
|
Charleston Lake Provincial Park ten miles north of Gananoque and
|
|
twenty-five niles east of Kingston saw in the southeast sky a
|
|
greenish, spiralling cloud which moved slowly to the northeast. A
|
|
small star seemed to be travelling in front and the cloud slowly
|
|
dissipated like a vapour trail.
