This document reports a 1959 sighting of a slow-moving, cigar-shaped object with light projections by witness Bill Shoebotham in Horseshoe Bay, British Columbia. The report details the object's movement and appearance over a duration of nearly thirty minutes.
In 1959, a witness named Bill Shoebotham observed an unidentified aerial phenomenon at Horseshoe Bay, located 15 miles northwest of Vancouver, British Columbia. At 10:30 pm, while looking southwest, the witness initially identified an unusually bright star. Upon realizing the object was approaching, he observed it as it passed slowly to the north of his position, traveling in a northeast direction toward West Vancouver. As the object passed, its appearance shifted from round to a distinct cigar shape. The witness estimated the size of the craft to be equivalent to half a lead pencil held at arm's length. The object was described as having a dark outline with visible projections of light appearing both above and below the craft. The sighting lasted for nearly half an hour, during which time the object maintained a very slow speed.
The outline of the craft was dark, but showed "projections of light" above and below.
