PHXLIGHTS

*In June 2004, NUFORC asked me to help look into the sightings on and around June 14th.
While ultimately we could not rule out flares as the source of these lights, the vast majority of footage and to an even greater extent the witness reports were found to be inconsistant with conventional flare activity.

May 2005, Jeff Willes captures familiar Moving String of lights. We just missed capturing the event with a Cannon XL1 and 35mm Film. We were lucky to get this however, as this is some interesting footage.

In 2005, research at the site was significantly enhanced due to a collaboration with a respected scientific research organization. The resources and expertise of this research group has been advantageous from the perspective of generating data concerning this phenomenon. In addition, it has made the entire effort more scientifically sound and ultimately more acceptable. This means the majority of data streams collected via instruments will be introduced via traditional scientific channels (white paper, peer review etc.) While this may hamper the short term introduction and release of any findings to the general public, we believe it will ultimately help facilitate a greater acceptance of the findings in the long run.

A summary of the the photographic and video data of the phenomenon observed at site. This site is consideredd sacred by many separate Native American tribes in the area including the Hopi, who reside some 200 miles to the north. While there is a difference of opinion regarding the meaning of the petroglyphs found at the site; interestingly, the tribes share a common mythology that describes the site as a portal of sorts.

"In all of my research......all of this collecting of data..... it has strangely resulted in a single certainty. The nebulous realization that reality has a much larger "unconventional" component to it then any of us can imagine."

On 09/11/05 we shot some interesting footage of lights appearing in the same vicinity as the '97 Phoenix Lights. However, this time the lights were in no way attributable to flares..
