JUNE 20, 1986……….CALGARY ALBERTA CANADA
I was walking Westward, behind the wooden apartment buildings that were there then, toward the bus stop where I caught the bus to work. The time was just after 6 a.m. and my path took me across an entry to the Eastern end of Edworthy Park. I would stop briefly and look over the sight because it afforded me a great view of the North Calgary skyline nestled at the base of Nose Hill. On the morning this happened I was looking North, toward Nose Hill, as it was something I did most mornings. This fine, clear skied morning my peripheral vision caught something in the sky, the object looked white and was about the size of a golf ball. (Let me segue a moment to say that there newly built apartment complexes on the Western side of the entry to Edworthy Park. The occupants of these apartments, some at least, were there because to the East of the opening was the Western limit of Shaganappi Golf Course.
The Shaganappi Golf Course is in use throughout the year offering Cross Country Skiing as a Winter pastime.) I kept attention on the object because I thought it was a golf ball, as it had apparently appeared from the direction of the newly built apartment blocks. (Hitting golf balls from the balconies was a common occurrence and was severely criticised by the users of the path that runs alongside the riverside, as well it was considered illegal by the railway companies as there was a track at the bottom of the bluff on which I was standing. Golf balls landing in the river were considered as pollution.) The object, however, did not behave in the manner of any golf ball that I had seen anywhere in my most extensive travels. This object, now clearly and orb-like structure with a misty/cloudy emanation located at its’ base, continued past the point where gravity should have affected it, keeping a straight line and increasing in size as it approached.
The object, once close enough identified as a silver/blue colour as though it was trying (unsuccessfully) to blend in with the clear blue sky around it. As I observed the object it increased in size, the small amount of water vapour/steam/cloud still hung around at its’ base. The object appeared to travel from the Northwest on a South-westerly path. There was no sound or any kind of apparent atmospheric disturbance around the object, save the misty cloud at its’ base. The object had increased its’ size to that of a basketball and stopped, hovering silently, directly above the Control Tower at the Calgary Airport. By now I was observing the object in the North-easterly area of my vision. I watched, totally engrossed in the sight I was beholding, a basketball sized object hovering directly above the Calgary Airport Control Tower.
My mind was full of questions, was this some new type of “cloaking device” invented by a foreign or even the Canadian government? Was I observing something of an extraterrestrial nature, or could it be inter-dimensional, or was I just plain losing my mind? These questions are still very real to me. Because what I saw next left my mind reeling. The now basketball object seemed to reduce in size, firstly to that of a softball, and once again it reduced itself to a baseball size, holding the last size for briefly a second before I saw three objects, all of which could be considered “carbon copies” of the original object, down to the little clouds of water vapour at the bases of each sphere disappear silently over the horizon. The objects disappeared over the horizon at the same time, one on a Northern trajectory, the second on a North-easterly trajectory, and finally, the third object disappeared over the horizon in a due East trajectory. In a state of shock and disbelief I continued my journey, and I arrived at the bus stop the same moment as the bus. NOTE: The above image is real but from another case file.
