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.
