- 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.
