Description of Area / Surroundings

A rural farm community about 25 miles from McConell Airforce Base in Wichita, Ks.

Full Description & Details

I am a 49 year old male. This is somthing that happened to me many years ago that I've never been able to forget. I grew up in the small farm community of Sedgwick, Ks. When I was around 12 or 13 years old I was walking home alone from a baseball game one summer night. At the time most of the roads in town weren't paved and there were not many street lights, the population was probably 3 or 4 hundred people. I lived in a dark part of town about 5 blocks from the baseball diamond. About half way home I was crossing a dark alley. As I looked up to my left I saw a colorless ball with a extremly bright light in the middle of it . The ball was about the size of a five gallon water bottle, but it was round. I'm guessing it was probably 30 feet away from me and floating 10 or 15 feet in the air when I first noticed it. As the ball came closer to me, I froze! It floated above my head and across the street. Straight down the alley ,as if it were being guided. The light was so bright I could hardly look at it. It also did not make a sound. I didn't have a clue what this was until I saw a story on the Alagash Four in Michigan. I don't beleve I was abducted but I'm sure it was the same thing I saw. I havn't seen anything like that since and I don't think we had that kind of technology in the middle sixty's. I also don't understand why somthing like that would come to the small town of Sedgwick, Kansas. This happen around 10:00 PM.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

No way! I'm not familar with anything like that now.

Witness Background

I've been a aircraft mechanic most of my life. I've worked for Boeing, Learjet and Cessna. When I worked for Learjet I worked built the External Fuel Tank on the Space Schuttle. I have never had a criminal background.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I didn't know anything about UFO's, except hearing people say ( Little Green Men From Mars). I beleve we are not the only one's in the universe. I've seen alot about UFO's on TV. Some I believe some I don't.

Other Comments

I don't like it when people fake photo's and sightings cause it takes away from the cretaiblity of those stories that are true.

Description of Area / Surroundings

a field off Hwy 24 about 50 miles east of Kansas City

Full Description & Details

all vehicles on hwy 24 were pulled over to the shoulder of the road eastbound with people outside their vehicles looking up at the object. in the blink of an eye with no noise other than a soft swishing noise not like an engine disappeared the object from our sight. without a word from any of the people observing they seemingly mechanically just got back in their vehicles and drove away. we got back in our vehicle, my then girlfriend and now my wife of 33 years, and drove off. Another thing that was strange was that our vehicle shut down completely upon topping a hill where everyone was observing at the crest. we coasted to the side of the road where the onlookers were already pulled over. when the object was gone our vehicle was able to start and we continued on the rest of our trip to moberly, missouri to visit my aunt and grandmother.

The weirdest thing was that my girlfriend and I didn't mention this to anyone because we didn't remember it happened for approximately 10 years later. In a conversation we were having unrelated to the ufo siting we both remembered in detail the siting instantanously at the exact same moment.

We have always wanted to locate another siting of this by anyone who might of been there but don't know how to find this out. I've always been interested in finding out if we were abducted and the amnesia would of concealed any abduction. We would like to have a retro hypnosis done on us to maybe uncover more details that we have not been able to discuss. We would also like to know if anyone could remember seeing anything that night.

If you can help us on any research on this I would appreciate a call.

Full Description & Details

ON AUGUST 15TH 1986, THREE FRIENDS AND MYSELF WERE STANDING IN MY PARENTS DRIVEWAY AT APPROX 10:40PM. THIER HOUSE SAT DIRECTLY NEXT TO A WINTER SKI RESORT DUBBED MOUNT TRASHMORE, AND BEHIND THEIR HOUSE IS A 200FT TALL RADIO TOWER FOR THE STATION WJR DETROIT. THE FOUR OF US THEN BEGAN TO HEAR A VERY LOUD BUZZING BASS TYPE NOISE, YOU COULD ACTUALLY FEEL THE VIBRATIONS OF THIS NOISE, AS IF YOU WERE STANDING IN FRONT OF A GIANT SPEAKER. WHEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS POINTED UP, WE WITNESSED SOMETHING I WILL NEVER FORGET. AN OBJECT/UFO LITERALLY THE SIZE OF A FOOTBALL STADIUM WAS HOVERING OVER THE TOWER, RIGHT ABOVE OUR HEADS. THE OBJECT HAD A SPIRALING DESIGN THAT MOVED AROUND SLOWLY AND WAS NEON GREEN IN COLOR. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES MY MOTHER RAN OUTSIDE AND TOLD US THAT SHE WANTED US TO SEE WHAT THEY WHERE ABOUT TO SHOW ON THE 11PM NEWS WXYZ., ABOUT UFO SIGHTINGS IN THE METRO DETROIT AREA, AND WE POINTED UP. AFTER A TOTAL OF MAYBEE SIX OR SEVEN MINUTES, THE OBJECT SLOWLY DRIFTED NORTH AND OUT OF OUR SIGHT. RUSHING INTO THE HOUSE WE INDEED SAW THIS SAME OBJECT ON THE NEWS. AND THE NEXT DAY AN ARTICLE IN THE DETROIT FREE PRESS HAD A PICTURE AND SAID THE OBJECT WAS REPORTED MOVING NORTH FROM EVERY STATE FROM TENNEESEE THRU MICHIGAN AND UP THRU CANADA. NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAVE BEEN WAITING 20 YEARS TO FIND OUT WHAT IT WAS, AND WAITING TO SEE SOMETHING LIKE IT AGAIN.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

NO WAY.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Fluying object was round , silver colour but not shiny( colour of old aluminium) but i was feeling that it is very hard material ( not as it look-like airplane ) , wery quiet (no sund was produced from this flying object), without any bright lights ( or those lights were not visible because it was very clear sunshine day without any cloud in the sky . It was aobut 60 to 80 meters in diameter with cabin like central part (just like UFO from the movies)But no windows were seen concerning our side of the flying object.

Description of Area / Surroundings

This is rural area nearest town from this place is jablanica and along this road is River Neretva and on the both sides of the river are mountanis and hills.Near this place (about 7 km from tha place is famous bridge across river from II World war.And at that palce exactly is alsaw bridge .

Full Description & Details

I was born in 1962 . When i was 8 years old i went with parents to the Adriatic see for summer holidays in August. On a road from Sarajevo to Mostar and later to Adriatic see, at 10-11 A.M. about 10 km from town of jablanica about 60-70 cars stopped to .My father alsaw stopped the car .We vent out of the car and father asked some people near us why are we all standing here on this heat( it was very hot day).We vere very nervous to come to the see.

In a second those people told us to look on the other side of the road across river Neretva about 700 meter from the bridge across river maximum 50-70 meters upon the hill (and hill is not more tha 200 m high) and about 250-300 meters from us was standing in the air big round silver but not shiny silver flying object without any lights or any sound.Object was big about 60 to maximum 80 meters in diameter very quiet .Those people told us that this object is about five minutes there before we came . There was minimum 150 eye witnesses.Because at that time of the year everubody was gonig to the see mostly whole families.

And we have minimum looked at this flying object for 3-4 minutes before it has disappiared.

It was so clear visible and so colse from us (not just my father and me) tha it was impossible that it was some sort of fiction.

Precisely place were this object was seen is hill upon the bridge over river Neretva were was Unprofor Jordan battalion securing bridge across the river.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

It was so near to all of us and it was so clear and visible that it is impossible that it was nothing else than ufo.Just simple like that ( No airplanes , birds clouds and things like that).

Witness Background

I have College degree , and I am Specialist , I am speaking English and German , very good in computers (Corel , Photo shop,Quark Express etc). I have written since now three books ( in my profession).

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before sightsing ( at the time of sighting I was 8 years old) I dindt know much about ufo but about solar sistem planets and stars I have learned from my father.

On a flight coming back from Cancun, Mexico

Summary:

I was flying back from my Spring Break trip to Cancun, Mexico and while on the flight at about I would say 36,000 feet or so (pretty high up there becuase you could tell from it being about 12:00 P.M. day light and it starting to look a little darker up there). I saw a roundish object I would estimate at about probably 80,000 feet becuase of its size.

Duration:

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

2-3 times bigger than a regular star at night. You could tell it was some sort of metal judging from its shinyness and siler look. You could definetly tell that it was round. It moved in different patterns while the plane seemed to stay on the same path. Also Judging by how far away it was probably I would say at least 200 feet across such as a diameter would be.

Size of Object(s)

It was probably about 200 feet across judging by how far away but the 200 feet across is by how a diameter

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

80,000 feet in the air, seeing it from about 32,000 feet to 36,000 feet.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was above land about quarter to half way between Salt Lake City, Utah and Cancun, Mexico

Full Description & Details

I was flying back from my Spring Break trip to Cancun, Mexico and while on the flight back to Salt Lake City, Utah at about I would say 36,000 feet or so (pretty high up there becuase you could tell from it being about 12:00 P.M. day light and it starting to look a little darker up there). I saw a roundish object I would estimate at about probably 80,000 feet becuase of its size out size my window up and to the side of the plane. This was somewhere between quarter of the way to almost half way to Salt Lake. I was sitting on the plane watching the end of the movie the Incredibles and so it was showing the credits and so I figured thats kind of boring to watch so I decided to look out side of the window to see if I could tell where we were. I just happened to look up towards the stars and I saw this metallic roudish object off in the distance. I then told my friend to hurry and check this out figuring it to maybe be a satellite. So he looked over and since it happened to be in the distance about 2 to 3 times bigger than a regular star you would see at night and him not wearing his contacts it made it rather difficult for him to see. Then all of a sudden it started moving around in different type of patterns. I then hurried through my carry-on bag to get my disposable camera, but by the time I had gotten my camera it was gone.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

All though it could have been a Satellite, I do not think that a Satellite could make the different patterns in the air that it did, while the plane seemed to be on a steady course.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before seeing it I had heard things about sightings from Television shows and figured it could be possible considering that there has to be something other than just humans out there in the Universe. After I have decided to read other peoples stories to see if they relate to mine, and I will believe to this day.

Date:

June, 1971

Location:

Portland, Oregon, United States

Summary:

I saw a large glowing orange craft over a park near a house we rented in Portland, OR. It was huge and had the appearance of a molten metal disk. It appeared hot (like molten metal would be) but didn't radiate any heat that I could tell. The craft sat in the air unmoving for some time but left very abrubtly moving quickly almost straight up. If the craft had terrestrial qualities it's size and dimensions would have killed me when it left, leaving a crater larger than the park from the suction it would have caused. There was no perceptible effect on my surroundings as it almost instantly went from dwarfing the park to a spec of light in the night sky.

Date Reported:

3/2/2006 9:57:18 AM

Comments about the image(s): The witness writes: "It's a simple sketch from what I recall of previous sketches and details I drew. I do not recall the actual details as well anymore unfortunately."

Sighting Time: 

8:00 PM

Day/Night: 

Dusk/Evening

No. of Witnesses: 

1

Duration: 

Seemed like 10 minutes or so.

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It was glowing orange like molten metal, disk shaped like 2 quarters stacked on top of each other but with no seam on the side. The sides of the craft had semi-spherical rivets in two rows that followed the edge of the craft. The rivets also glowed like molten metal but had a darker swirling quality to each one, like oil moved about slowly in water. The bottom of the craft had an irregular box shape in the middle with 4 tubes coming off of it to what appeared to be 4 rotors. The rotors spun but I could not distinguish an opening in the craft. The craft appeared solid and very heavy. If it had been made of molten metal it would have weighed thousands of tons. It's size and shape seemed to defy physics entirely. I could not imagine what forces could keep such a bulky craft suspended in the sky.

Size of Object(s)

From my perspect the craft occupied at least the space of my arms outstretched at my sides and bent upwards at 90 degrees at my elbows. It almost filled my entire field of vision but left some space around the sides where I could see the night sky. I would say it was about 200 yards across the object. The edge of the craft was perhaps 2 stories tall, maybe more. I can't tell for sure though because I don't know how far it was from me, perhaps a hundred feet or so.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Suburban. Over a park in a Portland. There were houses all along the West and South of the park (which was roughly a square) and a school to the East of the park. There were horse pastures and a small woods to the North of the park.

Full Description & Details

I was very young and my mom needed to head to a PTA meeting for my school which was across a park to the East of where we lived. It was sometime in summer because the nights were still long. I asked my mom if I could go with her as far as the park and would play on the swings, etc. until she got back. Shortly after she departed I saw a large circular craft above the park. It filled the night sky. I believe it to be roughly the size of the park (if not bigger) which had a baseball diamond in the NE and a playground in the SE. Most of the rest of the park was grassy with trees in the SW. Anyway, the object was huge, glowing orange, with the appearance of swirling molten metal. It was circular and disk-shaped, not spherical. Picture 2 quarters stacked on top of each other with no seams on their edge. The side of the craft had many half-spherical protrusions which looked to me like rivets but were more likely windows or some sort of sensory aparatus. The craft appeared unimaginably heavy and wasn't what I would call aerodynamic. I was puzzled about it's appearance and looked at it as long as I could. I was still standing there looking at the night sky when my mom returned. I was startled that she had returned so soon and I asked her if her meeting had been cancelled. She said no, it went on for about and hour and she mentioned that she had gotten to speak with my teachers and had had some cookies or other sort of refreshments. She asked what I had been doing the whole time and I told her that I had been playing a bit on the swings, which is what I had done prior to my seeing the craft in the sky. Her leaving for the meeting and returning seemed only like a matter of minutes to me. I cannot account for roughly an hour during my sighting of the craft in the sky. I have seen other instances of what I would consider UFO's, stars stair-stepping in the sky then moving off rapidly at an angle, but nothing as detailed or as large as this. I heard reports of a burning weather balloon the following day on the news on the radio but they said that nothing of the balloon was found. What I saw could not have been mistaken by anyone for a weather balloon or anything else. I did remember the report of the balloon though because I associate it with my experience from the previous night.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Absolutely not. All of the qualities of it seemed contrary to what I would expect from an earthly craft. The only thing that would make it seem to function like anything I've seen before were the rotors. And I couldn't even imagine how those could support such a bulky craft without adversly affecting my surroundings. Not a breeze was stirred up by the craft even as large as it appeared to be.

Witness Background

Network Administrator for a company of about 120 employees. Some college but no accreditation except an MCSE. I have worked in mostly computer-related positions since college.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I would say I knew little if anything about UFOs prior to my sighting. I had probably seen a few tv shows or movies about martians and outer space but nothing like what I saw.

Other Comments

Outside of the sighting itself the thing that puzzles me most is the duration. It appeared to only last minutes and when my mom returned from her meeting I was startled. I didn't expect her to return so soon and could only think she had come back immediately. When she said she had attended the whole meeting and then came back I couldn't figure how a few minutes on the swings plus a few minutes of watching the object would take up more than an hour. I have since then heard about abductions but I don't recall anything but standing there until she returned.

Summary:

Brilliant lights in the shape of a football. It had the brilliance of the brightest diamond, sparkled and flashed multi colored lights. Seen by myself and by a neighbor through binoculars and with the bare eye.

Duration: 

15-25 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

I saw an object that was shaped like a football. If I were to draw it, it would be a 15 degree ellipse running in the horizontal position. This object was very large and had flashing lights coming from every angle. It had the appearance of an immense amount of diamonds clustered together to form the above mentioned shape, like nothing I have ever seen before, brilliant, beautiful. At first I thought it was a blimp, but no blimp that I have ever seen in my life time that shinned in with such distinct brilliance. It was as if looking at the most brilliant diamond, or many, to many to count diamonds, you could possibly imagine throwing off so many different colors it was almost to amazing to even describe! I have never in my 46 years on this earth seen anything like it!

Size of Object(s)

1 to 1.5 inches apart. Too far away to tell, but at least the length of a 747 airliner, maybe 3 stories high; it was huge.

Description of Area / Surroundings

top of a mountain, no homes, no beacon lights, nothing up there at all.

Full Description & Details

I was walking home with my dog and noticed very bright lights or what I thought was lights on top of the mountains south of me, this was about 7pm. The area is called the Cleveland National Forest, mountains in the area of the 241 toll road and the 91 fwy. You can see them from my backyard looking south southwest.

I got home and took out my binoculars because I wanted to try and see what was going on up there on top of the mountain. There had been fires up there just a few weeks ago, so I thought at first maybe it was night construction? But that did not seem right since it is very high and rugged terrain even for firefighters. When I looked through my binoculars I saw an object that was shaped like a football. If I were to draw it, it would be a 15 degree ellipse running in the horizontal position. This object was very large and had flashing lights coming from every angle. It had the appearance of an immense amount of diamonds clustered together to form the above mentioned shape, like nothing I have ever seen before. At first I thought it was a blimp, but no blimp that I have ever seen in my life time that shinned in such brilliance. It was as if looking at the most brilliant diamond you could possibly imagine throwing off so many different colors it was almost to amazing to even describe!

I was so excited and not wanting to tell people about this and have them think I was nuts, that I ran to my neighbors house and had her look out her back yard at this object with her bare eyes and then through my binoculars. You could see the bright lights with the bare eye, but through the binoculars, you could see the actual form and the lights flashing from it. She was also extremely excited about this and saw the same thing I had seen, then it started to move she said. She had to leave her house for an appointment, so I went back home.

I observed this object for at least 15 minutes and then it just disappeared. I have never in my life seen anything like this and am not one to see flying objects and until now have not believed in such a thing. I am an Engineer by trade and consider myself to be a rational person. I wish I knew what I was looking at.

During the time I was looking at this through my binoculars, you could occasionally see what appeared to be other flying objects which I assumed were small airplanes or helicopters, they looked like little pin pricks compared to this object; it was extremely large in size and I have nothing to compare it with since it was night time and above a mountain ridge with no homes on it. Just guessing, I would say it was at least the length of a 747 airliner.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

No, none that I have ever seen in my lifetime. I have worked in the Aerospace and Avionics Industry since 1977 and I have never seen anything like this.

Witness Background

Cable Design Engineer. Aerospace and Avionics Engineering Industry.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Before tonight, I had mixed feelings about them. I would on occasion watch shows on TV such as on TLC and find it interesting and not out of the realm of possibility since I don't put limits on God. I have felt that most people you see who say they have seen UFOs are nut cases and yet you do hear of some credible people such as airline pilots, astronauts, etc., seeing things unexplainable and I found them to be credible. I have thought it was possible, but never really cared to give it much thought beyond that. After what I saw tonight, I think there are many possibilities, one of which there are experiments going on with our government that may explain this and the only other alternative I can find is that this was indeed from either outside our planet, or from another dimension. I am finding it very difficult to calm down after this and I’m not one to get excited about something I see in the sky! I have never been one to read about UFOs until tonight at which time I started looking for something on the internet to report this incident.

Other Comments

I would appreciate it, if you get any other reports of this, whatever it was I saw, if you would let me know. I'm very glad that my neighbor was home and could see this also, so I did not feel like I'm losing my mind, or some kind of blithering idiot seeing lights in the sky! It would be nice to know if anyone else saw this tonight. Thank you.

Summary:

Was driving to pick up friends for dinner when I spotted a large orange circular object hovering over one of those radio towers. It was there motionless for approx. 10 mins when I left to go get my friends who lived just a few blocks away from the tower. I rushed back within a few minutes and the orange object was gone.

No. of Witnesses:

Duration: 

10 Minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It looked like a round ball of fire.....a burnt orange color. It was bright and very noticeable over the radio tower. But not like a brightness that lit up the whole sky or anything. It was circular, but not like a perfect circle. the edges seemed irregular, i guess thats why i say it was like a ball of fire. I remember distinctly how blue the sky was behind the orange ball. And how there was no reflection from the sun or some kind of electrical fire on the radio tower.

Size of Object(s)

Ok, its been 22 years but I believe the relative size, between my hands was 15 to 18 inches apart. For the actual size, the ball was at least as wide or wider than the radio tower. I'm guesstimating that it was 50-60 ft tall.....one big circle.

Description of Area / Surroundings

This is mainly a residential area, with some shops/restaurants/gas station/school at this intersection. But on this northeast corner, there is this solitary tower. I've always called it a radio tower.

Full Description & Details

I was with a girlfriend heading over to pick up friends for dinner. We drove down Somerset

Drive west to Mission Road. This is a busy area and road, with lots of traffic, businesses, and residential areas. On the northeast corner of this intersection is one of those large, tall radio towers. I remember the very blue sky overhead, no clouds and the sun was going down, but it was still light out.

For whatever reason, I looked up at the radio tower and noticed a round orange light above the tower. It was a large object, big enough where i could see it clearly from the street all the way above the tall tower. The orange color was like a burnt orange color...that has always stuck in my mind. I distinctly remember turning and looking towards the west towards the sun to see if it was shining off the tower or something like that. It wasn't shining that bright since it was low on the horizon. Both of us kept looking at the orange ball, both of us commenting that it wasn't moving, that it looked like it was just 10 feet above the tower. And we both agreed the sun wasn't shining and making a reflection of some sort.

We pulled over to the side of the road and kept watching and wondering what in the world is that? I thought maybe its a fire or something coming from the radio tower, but it just wasn't that.

We were running real late to pick up our friends for dinner so we had to move on, but we kept our eyes on the orange ball as we headed to the street where our friends lived...a couple blocks away. I could still see the orange ball thru the trees but as we got to our friends house we couldn't see it anymore due to the many tall trees lining the streets.

We rushed our friends from the house and I sped back over to the tower within a few minutes. We both excitedly talked of what we saw, but as we got there the orange ball was completely gone. It was bizarre. I have spent ...what...22 years now wondering what the heck it was.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Absolutely not anything natural. This thing was right over the tower. I checked the sun reflection, i checked for fire, it was something hovering in the clear blue sky right at the top of the tower. And then if was completely gone when i came back within 3-4 min.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I became a true believer after this. I never was interested or paid attention in UFO's until after this incident. My girlfriend then also was a skeptic about many things like UFO's, but she was as baffled and changed by what we saw too.

Other Comments

I became friends with a guy several years later. He was a police officer in Kansas City.

We got on the topic of UFO's and he told of his experience over a lake in Pomona, Kansas....Lake Pomona. He was fishing very early in the morning....3 am.....standing in his waders out in the water in a brushy area. He said a UFO came over the lake and it was as bright as if it was 12 noon. He hid in the bushes for a very long time before it went away. Hearing this story just really made me believe I saw something that wasn't from here.

NO WAY.......I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ANYTHING CLOSE TO IT, 30+ YRS LATER NOTHING

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT UFO'S BEFORE THE SIGHTING, AND I REALLY DID'NT START RESEARCHING UFO-UFS OR ALIENS UNTIL MY SECOND CLOSE ENCOUNTER OF THE THIRD KIND......UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL 2 YEARS LATER ON THE SAME STREET..... I REALLY STARTED GETTING UPSET ABOUT IT WHEN I SAW THE MOVIE " CLOSE IN COUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND" CAME ON TV......I TRUELY THOUGHT SOMEONE WAS PLAYING A TRICK ON ME CAUSE I NEVER TOLD A SOUL WHAT I SAW, BUT THERE THEY WERE ON TV COMING OFF THE SHIP.......THAT'S WHEN I SAID THE GOVERMENT OR SOMEBODY IS FULL OF SHIT....SOMEBODY ELSE HAD TO SEE THEM TOO CAUSE I SWEAR I HAVE NOT TOLD A PERSON.

Summary:

Round shape with rotating lights came from far off in the sky to right on top of us in a matter of seconds, then followed us, then went off behind the trees.

Date Reported:

Sighting Time: 

9:00 PM

Day/Night: 

Nighttime

No. of Witnesses: 

2 adults 1 child

Duration: 

about 10 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

It couldn't have been more than about 8-10 feet wide and maybe 4-5 feet tall... about the size of a Volkswagon Beetle. The lights were multiple, rotating colors including red, green, white, yellow and (I think) blue. The lights were SO bright that you really couldn't see a specific shape. There was also no noise or sound whatsoever and it was extremely fast, seemingly to go from the upper atmosphere to almost ground level in a matter of seconds, because when I first noticed it, it looked like a pulsing star far away.

Size of Object(s)

Again, it was about 8-10 feet wide and about 4-5 feet tall (depth). We come to this measurement by comparing it with the back of the truck (when it was right on our bumper).

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

At the initial view of the object, it seemed EXTREMELY far away, then it was within inches of us.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Rural area on a county road.

Full Description & Details

It was around 9:00 PM and my husband and I and our 4 year old son were going to run up to the store. We were on Cherokee Trail heading into town (Tallassee) when I pointed and said "look at that beautiful star" (way up in the eastern/south eastern sky) and just about as soon as I said that, the "star" zoomed (for lack of a better word) to about 20 or 30 yards away from us, running parallel to our truck at about tree-top level. It continued to follow us for about 2 miles and it changed speeds to stay in course with us (when we slowed it slowed, when we sped up, it sped up). This whole time my husband and I were discussing what it could possibly be and the suggestion of a helicopter or some kind of aircraft came up so we decided to stop to see if we could hear anything or just to check it out. When we stopped it went down about 50 yards in front of us (it was still parallel with us at this time) then it came over the top of the trees and hovered in the middle of the road about 50 yards in front of us and just sat there (kind of like some sort of stand-off). We rolled our windows down to see if we could hear anything and there was no sound at all. We sat there for about a minute and that's when we began to get seriously scared. So we turned the truck around and we proceeded to go back towards our house and then it started following us, getting closer and closer to our bumper. My husband continued to accelerate and we got upwards about 90 mph and by that time it was within inches of our bumper. We continued that speed all the way back to the house, then we turned right into the driveway and it turned left and went over behind some trees about 100 yards away. We got out of the truck and I ran our son inside. My husband claims that he could see still see its lights through the trees. My husband soon came inside also. Then we went back out and it was gone. We went into town later that night and asked the gas station clerk if she had seen anything or if anyone else had come in with strange sightings and she said no. We were the only ones on that road that night also. And evidentally no one else saw what we did because there was never any mentions of any strange activity that night.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

No.

Witness Background

Myself: College student majoring in veterinary medicine; My husband: has been with the railroad for 10 years

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I, myself have always been open to the idea and have had possible previous encounters, my husband however had no thoughts on the matter either way. He's more of the mundane, realistic type, but now he's a complete believer. After the encounter we looked up some material on the internet, but nothing serious.
