UFO Sighting Report

Date:

2000

Location:

Verona, New York, United States

Summary:

While shooting my BB gun in the back yard with a friend, I saw a white dot in the sky which disappeared when we used the scope to focus on it.

Date Reported:

2/15/2011 5:47:21 PM

Day/Night: 

Daytime

No. of Witnesses: 

2

Duration: 

5 to 10 minutes

Appearance / Description of Object(s)

As mentioned, the object looked to be a white/silvery disk with two antennae coming out of the top.

Size of Object(s)

The object was no less than a mile away and up in the sky, thus any attempts to guess the scale would be futile. It would be like looking at a pinhead with arms outstretched.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

at least a mile away and 1000 feet in the air

Description of Area / Surroundings

Very rural area. A closed down radar station for Griffiss air force base is in the northern area of the town, close to where the object appeared.

Full Description & Details

I was in elementary school, but I still remember every little detail as if it were yesterday. I was shooting my BB gun with a friend in my back yard, facing North North East, when we say a stationary white dot in the sky. My BB gun was equipped with a scope (I believe a 3x-8x power) which we used to try to focus on the object. When I did so, I saw for a brief second that the object looked basically like any stereotypical UFO I'd ever seen! It appeared to be a white (possibly silvery, it was midday with the sun shining) saucer with two stubby little antennae sticking out of the top at approximately 90 degree angles (45 degree from vertical) from each other. This observation lasted perhaps 2 seconds before the object disappeared into thin air. Disappointed, we shrugged it off and continued to shoot the gun. Less than 1 minute later, the object reappeared. Again, I used the scope to try to get a look at the object and again, almost instantly, it faded out of view. This cycle repeated itself for at least 5 to 10 minutes, with the object reappearing and disappearing when we tried to look at it.

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

It was day so it wasn't a star/planet/sattelite/moon. I suppose it could be a military exercise experimentally testing physical invisibility devices, but you read my account of the sighting and tell me.

Witness Background

I've only gone to school my whole life, and this incident occurred in elementary school.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Completely negligent and "agnostic" if you will. Maybe they exist but I don't care
