- My wife & I were camping in the crater of Haleakela Volcano on Maui when
- we saw what at first to appeared to be an aircraft or helicopter light.
- After watching it for a few minutes we realized it was behaving in a
- manner that no aircraft or helicopter is capable of. It followed a series
- of left & right-angle angle turns and complete stops, and repeated the
- same series of movements all night long. Somehow , we actually managed to
- fall asleep with this light doing its thing.
- On our way out of the park we mentioned this episode to the park rangers,
- and their response was very interesting to us; They said that there have
- been other reports of lights in the crater at night. No-one has ever been
- able to explain it, although one of the rumors is of secret government
- aircraft being tested at night. Another explanation was that what we were
- seeing was car headlights from lower on the volcano were reflecting of
- some kind of atmospheric inversion. (whatever) One ranger said she had
- heard that ufos just happen to like Haleakela.
- I am posting this message to ask if anyone else has ever seen lights in
- Haleakela, or heard about it before?
