Are we seeing Chupas?

This link has some information on cube-like objects. Obviously, it doesn’t have to be shaped like a saucer to be a UFO. And good thing none of the Cubes have fired death rays at anyone we know… yet.

OZ File Sighting Report
3rd March 2002

Report taken from the AUFORN Mailing List

Reported: 1:48 pm Monday 4th march 2002.

Witness: Terry
Area of sighting: Carrum Downs
Duration: approx 45 seconds.
Description: Orange light...stationary..then descending.
Time of sighting: Approx 1 am
Date of Sighting: 03 03 02

Report

Terry was driving along the freeway from Edithvale towards Frankston in the south eastern area of Melbourne's suburbs at about 1 am.

While passing the Carrum Downs area he noticed a bright orange light which appeared to be stationary. Next it seemed to be moving along with the car he was travelling in. He described it as a nearly perfect SQUARE. It came down leaving a greenish-blue trail behind it. He had the impression that it would have been at least 2 or 3 metres square....then he said it looked like a large cube. Then it went out of sight.

He stated that it was a very unusual looking thing, nothing like anything he has ever seen before.

He also stated that until this event he had regarded himself as a sceptic, and now he is no longer a sceptic. He's going to look for the Ufologist Magazine in his local newsagent.

LARGE CUBE-SHAPED UFO SIGHTED IN PORTUGAL

On Monday, July 25, 2005, in the evening, an architect was walking on the beach at Matosinhos in northern Portugal when he spotted an unusual "cube-shaped UFO."

"An architect from Matosinhos told TV Channel 1 in Lisboa that he saw a UFO yesterday while walking the beach at night," reported Casimiro Moreira, UFO Roundup's correspondent in Portugal, "He said the sighting lasted for two minutes. 'It was like a cube floating above the sand, then it flew away towards the night sky, causing an explosion of light at high altitude.'"

Matosinhos is located about 10 kilometers (6 miles) north of Oporto and 235 kilometers (148 miles) north of Lisboa, Portugal's capital. (See the Portuguese newspaper Correio da Manha for July 26, 2005. Muito obrigado a Casimiro Moreira por eso caso.)

FLYING AND HOVERING LUMINOUS WHITE BOX CHECKS ON RADIO TOWER

Subject: Kansas UFO
Date: February 17, 2006
From: [eMail address]@aol.com

When we lived in Kansas in the early 1960s as small children. We used to live on the North end of Great Bend, Kansas on the North end of [street name] St. One night in 1964 or 65, I looked out of the kitchen window and saw a White cube that glowed like a light bulb. It had a red light glowing on the inside of it. There are or were quite a few radio towers there and one huge TV 2 tower farther to the North. The cube shaped thing flew around that radio tower like a moth flies around a light bulb of all things, only slower than a moth and it never hit the tower. I ran to get my dad but he said don't brother him right now. So I ran back to the kitchen yelling for my two brothers to come here. When I got back to the window it was still flying near the tower. Just before my brothers got to the window it came across the field then towards me and it started hovering around 75 feet above the ground maybe 200 yards away. That is when my two brothers made it to the window and started saying what is that, what is that? Also, I might add that the red light was fading on an off like the tower light was. I believe perhaps it was trying to communicate with it. We saw what we saw so because of that I know we are not alone. Sure makes you wonder why that thing was flying around that radio tower? I can also tell you that well we did anyway, still had black and white TV as it was still the early years for TV. The large TV 2 tower first broadcast was Nov. 28, 1954. Just for the fact that signals can travel at the speed of light and maybe it too could travel at or near the speed of light too. Then maybe it could have came from a near by star system that would be within 5 or 6 light years from us? But if it was a craft or a type of probe that was just passing by then who knows where it could have came from? Another possibility is that, what if it was some type of life form itself? And it roams the cosmos like the buffalo roomed our prairies long ago? I have done my homework on about everything it could have been and my conclusion is that it was extraterrestrial, why? Because the thing I saw showed intelligence and there is no doubt about it. I know it was looking at things by the way it was behaving. At the North end of the street was a wheat field then to the North edge of that about 1 mile is the Dry Walnut Creek and on the North edge of that was the radio tower. The radio tower was around one and a quarter mile from the kitchen window where I first saw it. The houses including ours 15 houses or so lined up along the wheat field east and west. The houses that are there now on the East side of the field were not there then. Here is the part that I did not include, when I got back to the window it just moved off the tower and was spinning (like a white glowing box spinning) it was spinning towards the South southeast towards town. Then it turned toward the West very quickly and staying over the field run along the row of houses staying out over the field around 200 yards or so and up in the air like I said around 75 feet. When it saw me looking out the window like I said, it stopped and that is when my 2 brothers made it to the window and started saying what is that, what is that? To me that shows a form of intelligence don't you think? This is a true story and I wanted to share it. Sincerely, [firstname name]

BLACK CUBE-SHAPED UFO SPOTTED IN QUEENSLAND

Kingaroy, a town in central Queensland about 150 miles (240 kilometers) northwest of Brisbane, is the site of Australia's newest UFO flap.

On Saturday, March 14, 1998, at 6:40 p.m., residents of Kingaroy reported seeing "bright white lights" overhead and near the horizon.

Like clockwork, the mysterious lights returned again each succeeding night--at 6:33 p.m. on Sunday, March 15--at 6:26 p.m. on Monday, March 16--and at 6:33 p.m. on Tuesday, March 17.

During the Tuesday, March 17, sighting, Kingaroy people "reported sighting a rounded-edged, black, cube-shaped object carrying a bright white light...The black cube dropped the white light," which fell to the ground. The UFO then "changed direction" to the northwest, heading straight for Kingaroy.

The witnesses had the black cube in sight for two minutes. "The object appeared to be moving faster than a commercial jet. As the object travelled away, and about the same time of the white light impacting the ground, a loud rumbling sound was heard." Many thanks to Ross Dowe of the Australia/New Zealand National UFO Hotline for this report.)

Hey Fish, was scanning some old family albums when the wife pointed something out to me. She was trying to catch the sheep as we sped down a coastal road (in Dubai, if I remember) It was certainly weird and I’d have missed it if I didn’t recall that old posting in Playground. See if you can spot it. Certainly freaked me out but Occam’s Razor would have it be a cardboard shack. You think?

Interesting. I’ve highlighted it, and it’s certainly too structured to be trash.
