The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is currently looking for information and additional witnesses for the following event.

We are primarily searching to verify a government experiment that involved high school students that took place at U.C. Berkeley in Northern California in 1981. They ultimately were shown a creature in a cage. We are trying to find people that were participants that were involved as well. 

According to the witness that was involved in the experience, they were one of two high school students selected from their school to be part of an experiment. There were dozens of pairs from other schools across California as well, always one girl and one boy. We are not sure the metrics by which they were chosen.

Regardless, the experiment was run by the U.S. Federal Government, consisting of a several-day stay on the Berkeley campus, during which the students were to be housed and fed by government representatives, apparently "men-in-black" types. The first few days involved experimentation in psychic powers, such as telekinesis and remote viewing. In the telekinetic sessions, for example, the students were asked to mentally spin a top which was balanced at the end of a stick they were holding. In the remote viewing sessions, they were supposed to see what was placed in front of a person in another room, although the witness could only accurately "view" a hole in the ceiling of that room.

A British witness at Kincardine reported watching a “metallic triangle with red and green lights,” according to testimony in Case 89005 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was driving northbound along M896 toward the Kincardine Bridge at 9:40 p.m. on December 23, 2017.

“We saw a triangular, metallic object approximately 100 to 500 feet in the air with red and green flashing light on it,” the witness stated. “It also had a continuous white light illuminating the undercarriage and a solid red light toward the rear. The object was as clear as day. I am ex-military and I know my aircraft. This was nothing I have ever seen before. It proceeded to follow in my car as my partner was hanging out the window looking at it. As we kept driving, I could see it in my nearside wing mirror as my partner was still looking at it. As we pulled off the motorway and turned to our left, the sky was completely empty. Not a light in the sky apart from the two pylons that were there before.”

British MUFON Field Investigator Karl Webb closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.

A Kentucky witness at Winchester reported watching three objects hovering over a creek, according to testimony in Case 88674 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and friends were driving home from a concert at 9 p.m. on December 8, 2017.

“The females were sleeping in back,” the witness stated. “We were driving approximately 90 miles from Nashville to Lexington, KY. No drugs and no alcohol at concert. We just crossed the Kentucky state line when we came across three vehicles stopped on the side of the road. And above the vehicles approximately 100 feet in front of them, a good 60 feet in the air, was a very prominent object hovering, with no visible lights, but visible to us. It was transparent, but only enough to make you double take, transparent as Casper in the original film.”

The witness could not hear any noise at this point.

“As we watched this, for a good minute, we tried to snap a photo, using a Note 8 and an iPhone and were unable to actually capture anything due to lighting and being on interstate at 4 a.m. As we decided we were spooked enough, we decided to continue forward, along with another vehicle that was parked on the side. As we approach the object, which hadn’t made any movement besides the swaying of hovering, we heard this loud, harsh humming. And again, we just left a concert. We are deaf temporarily, so this noise had to be loud. It rumbled and just sucked in all. We didn’t feel any effects from the encounter. We even stopped a few miles up the road at a gas station to verify what we did see. The other car stopped with us to talk about the experience. We lost sight driving away and never turned around.”

A Canadian witness at Carleton Place, Ontario, reported watching a “UFO moving northwest above the phone-power lines,” according to testimony in Case 88551 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was driving home from work at 7 p.m. on December 1, 2017.

“I noticed a white object moving above the power lines,” the witness stated. “I had stopped my car to make sure that it was not light deflecting since the sky was overcast. That's when I saw the UFO move northwest and moving around, between, the lines. The object was about maybe 10 to 15 feet in diameter. It's hard to explain because the best way I can describe the UFO, it was shaped like a fried egg, with the object misty white and the middle a brighter white. It also moved like a flying ‘magic’ carpet. I followed it for about half a kilometer and then it headed upwards and I lost track of it. I was intrigued by what I was seeing, and I guess in awe since I've never seen something like this and as low. I had seen UFOs before but only moving lights in the distance.”

Canadian MUFON Chief Investigator Ryan Stacey closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.

Carleton Place is a town in Eastern Ontario, Canada, in Lanark County, about 46 kilometres (29 miles) west of downtown Ottawa. Read more about MUFON's best reports in UFO Cases of Interest: 2018 Edition - now available at Amazon.com.

​A Florida witness at Pomona Park reported watching “three lights in a triangular formation glowing white with an invisible shroud surrounding the object,” according to testimony in Case 88473 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The incident began at 11:30 a.m. on December 1, 2017.

“I observed, what I believed to be, two F-22 Raptors in my area (sighted in a south-southeast direction) a few hours prior to UFO sighting (approximately 8-9 a.m. on December 1, 2017),” the witness stated. “I assumed they were running dogfighting exercises since they appeared to be moving erratically (such as stalling, performing loops, and chasing one another).”

The witness stepped back outside to smoke a cigar about 11:20 a.m.

“I observed the two aircraft in the north-northwest area of my region. I continued to observe them over the course of smoking, where they left the area and returned a few times (flying directly overhead at this point). I then observed three white lights arranged in a triangular shape in the vicinity of the aircraft moving north-northwest (more north, however,) at a slow rate of speed as compared to the two aircraft, however, the UFO appeared to be at a much higher altitude than the aircraft. At one point, the two aircraft appeared to circle and nearly collide with the object, at which point the aircraft continued in an eastern direction, then a southern direction, then a western direction until they moved far enough away that I could no longer hear the jet engines roaring. After approximately 15 minutes the two aircraft returned from a southern direction, heading due north, following the path of the UFO. The time now is 12:13 p.m. on Dec. 1, 2017, and I no longer hear any jet engines or see any objects in the sky at my location.”

A Pakistan witness at Chandigarh reported watching a “giant rectangular object” crossing the sky, according to testimony in Case 84506 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and a friend were “roaming in the office campus” after dinner at 10:22 p.m. on June 15, 2017.

“I noticed one giant UFO in the clear night sky,” the witness stated. “Immediately I told him and he also saw the same thing. One giant, rectangular object was moving very fast in a straight line and it had three dots of light underneath. I know that most of you guys are ignorant enough to believe that we are the only intelligent species in this vast space. But maybe whatever we saw today was not man-made cause we have never seen anything like this before, and it was moving quite fast without making any noise. That was pretty fascinating.”

Robert Spearing investigated for MUFON International and closed this case as an Unknown Aerial Vehicle.
