I got the following report in late yesterday. The witness was filming the sky and captured this odd looking cigar shaped object. During the video the object seems to change shape somewhat and at one point there are two lights.
What Happened To Australian Pilot, Frederick Valentich?
By Dorraine Fisher
Frederick Valentich wasn’t a military man. He was no one special or significant. But in October, 1978, this Australian pilot boarded a Cessna single-engine 182L plane for a routine cargo flight of 235 kilometers (about 146 miles) over Bass Strait, Australia. It was a day that started out like any other day, but as it turned out, he would never make it back.
According to the flight service officer at the time, Steve Robey, Valentich gave a rather routine position report and was flying under 5000 feet. But after that, things got very strange. Less than an hour into the flight, he started reporting that his engine was running rough and a strange aircraft was hovering about 300 meters above him. The following is the actual transcript of the exchange between Robey and Valentich:
Strange Lights Seen Over The Western Sky Wednesday Night
Space Junk???
By Dorraine Fisher
At around 9:30 Wednesday night, July 27, 2016, residents of states like Nevada, Utah, reported on social media about seeing a strange meteor shower or lights streaking across the sky overhead. Many took video, but none were sure what they were seeing.
Many first heard one expert say the spectacle was nothing more than debris from a Chinese rocket launch that took place on June 25 that was believed to have returned to the earth’s atmosphere and was likely traveling around earth at a high rate of speed; around 18,000 mph. But others weren’t so sure.
The 45-year director of Griffith Observatory, Ed Krupp, made another claim.
"Anytime you have a report of a luminous object, it's a fair bet it's a natural event. It's likely space debris or a meteor produced by interplanetary debris."
And today, “space junk” is the prevailing theory, although we at the Crypto Crew can think of many different spins on the story about what it might be. But we’ll let you decide.
Check out the videos.

Video 2 - Apparently, someone in Utah also recorded the lights.

Today I decided to ride the ATV and follow up on a track find report (more on that later). But, with it being a beautiful day, I also wanted to spend some time looking for tracks other than the reported one. So, I rode my ATV to various spots and scanned around for tracks and other signs of bigfoot.
After several hours I decided to come home and this is when the UFO sighting happened.
I was on my a ATV going down a steep hill, after all I was on top of the mountain. I had just stopped a little before this and took a few pictures, that is one of them at the top of the page. As I'm going down the hill, I looked up at the sky to my left and that is when I seen what I can only describe as a UFO. The object was silver but with the sun reflecting off of it it was really bright. The object was kind of making a rounded curve, like the yellow line in the picture above. Then the object kind of straightened it's flight path and was moving away from me. The object should have been visible for a long ways as it moved away from me. But the object became transparent and then vanished complete. While it was transparent it was still moving away from me.
