August, 8, 1999 - Makena Beach, Maui, Hawaii, United States
Long, tube-like object with small lights flying behind
"It was shaped like an eight-sided object---but long tube like... there was a break in the object, and then there was a second (same 8 sided shape tube) closely behind it. As it passed I saw many darting lights flying around the end of the object. It seemed to be translucent... meaning we could see though it, but it had lights all along the six-sided shape"

Police officer observes unknown craft
From the witness: "I observed an aircraft, approx. 150-200ft above ground level and approx 300-500ft slant range from my location. It was rolling out of a right bank and the streetlights were illuminating it enough so that I could see a distinct silhouette of the fuselage and the underbelly. This object appeared to be the same color as the night sky, flat black or dark gray. There were no lights, no exhaust flames and no engine noise... just absolute silence!"

August, 6, 1997 - Mexico City, Mexico
Mexico City 1997 UFO Video
In September 1997, [Mexican TV host and UFO researcher] Jaime Maussan received a very special package. Someone had sent him a video tape, in itself nothing remarkable.

For the anonymously sent recording showed nothing but points of light and sky - except for a large, metallic, structured, rotating disk, which maneuvered in broad daylight over Mexico City, with a dateline of 6 August 1997.
