Black "disc" sighting - Mauritius, 24th March

Hello ATS crew,

Long time between posts for me, so please forgive me if this post isn't up to the current standards I would like to share a quick story and a few photos from a sighting that my friend had recently.

My friend, who I will call CK, is a very 'normal' dude - 40ish, blue-collar worker (owns his own business), father to one little boy and well respected around town. This was a first-time sighting for him and he hasn't previously been involved with the UFO community (hence why I am sharing his story for him).

He was on holiday in Mauritius earlier this year (March 24th exact date) and was laying outside in an open-roofed hut, enjoying a bit of star gazing without all the usual light pollution.

As he was laying there, a large smoky black "disc" quickly and silently moved overhead and blocked out the stars in the sky.

The object hung motionless and silent in the sky for a few minutes, and CK grabbed his phone to take a photo. As he did, the object began to move away very quickly, but he managed to get a picture just in time (see below).

Picture 1: object


Picture 2: object gone


Picture 3: blank sky


I asked a bunch of questions:
- Did you hear anything? No, it was silent.
- Could it be clouds? No, it was moving too quick.
- Could it have been a helicopter? No, it was too large, too quiet and moving too quick.
- Did you feel afraid? No, just amazed.
- Did you lose any time? Not that he is aware of.
- Did anyone else see it? No. Just him (That he is aware of).

Happy to pass on any other questions to him if you have any. He's been pretty keen to know about similar sightings, so I have already sent him a BUNCH of information about the Phoenix Lights and Belgian Black Triangle Wave.

Cheers,

Zeke.

Ignore. They are just trying to derail the thread into some political debate because you described the disc as black.

I don't know what it is but I think I can just barely see it in the 3rd picture you call "blank sky". It would be interesting if anyone could enhance it and maybe see it better. I wonder if there are any other reports about anyone seeing this or anything else weird in the sky at this time.

I found this interview with J.P Hague who lives on Mauritius and describes his sighting of a UFO Mauritius UFO it is a five part interview that came out in April 2020 but I just posted the link to part one. He talks about UFO sightings on Mauritius going back to 2013 so I think Mauritius might be a "UFO Hotspot". However what he describes is a bright elliptical shaped light, so different than what your friend captured but I thought it was interesting also.

Maybe someone else knows more about whether or not UFOs are commonly sighted on the island.

I don't see any thing special in any photo.

a reply to: ArMaP

Wow cool! Do you see the discolored circle? What do you think it is? Just an effect of the camera?

a reply to: ArMaP

You don’t see the clear disc shape?

I may have put those photos around the round order - not used to the new way of uploading photos here!

a reply to: Ezekiel

The "disc" looks like the moon behind clouds, as ArMap's images show, it's still there in the 3rd image

a reply to: Ezekiel

I see the huge disk has smaller craft zipping alongside it.
Has his health suddenly improved by any factor, like hearing or eyesight? Does have more vivid dreams? Synchronicities? Does he want to travel to a place outside of a typical tourist destination? Is he making a sort of map or sculpture out of food on his dinner plate and he does not know what it means, but it means something important?

(I had to ask. My SO hasn't seen CE3K yet.)
This is awesome. I'm glad you two shared this experience here on ATS.
Encourage him to keep a camera handy, preferably one with night vision features. Some UFOs are visible in that spectrum. Happy hunting!

Looking at ArMap’s enhancements…….

Most noticeable to me is that of the anomaly’s matching discoloration “under” the palm branches and leaves …..and not above…which tend to be in the sky.




If it stood there for some amount of time before taking the pictures…..I would possibly point to the paranormal? An apparition of sought between the top of the wooden framing and the palm tree/bush…imo.

Mauritius has its share of the paranormal….. just Google search “Mauritius paranormal” and look at the links titles……

I think it's a camera effect, it looks like one.

In fact, the rectangular shapes are more interesting to me than the circles (I see two).

a reply to: Ezekiel

I see it, I just think it's a lens artefact.

a reply to: Argyll

March 24th was only 3 days after the new Moon, so the Moon wouldn't look like that.

So is the "UFO" that circle I assume? How come it can still be seen in the 3rd picture? Or is it supposed to still be seen in picture 3?

What is all around the circle in picture 1? It looks like some sort of effect of movement or something? I see rectangles in picture 1, are they part of the UFO?

a reply to: MisguidedAngel

Hey, mate sorry for the late reply. Life has been busy.

I think that I got the order of the photos around the wrong way and that Photo 3 was actually the first in the sequence.

Yes, the UFO was the circular shape seen in the photo. After speaking to my mate again, he said that from his perspective it was definitely a solid object as it blocked out ALL light of the stars behind it and moved as a solid shape across the sky.

Not great photographic evidence I know, but it was just a quick snapshot while he was laying there on holiday. His recounting of the story, and knowing what I know about him, adds more weight to this experience - but I know that's easy to say from behind a keyboard!

I might even see if he wants to jump on here and answer questions about the experience personally
