Full Description & Details

Driving back to college about 8 pm , Jan 4, 1964. Saw a red light over the trees about 1/2 mile to my left. At first thought it was a small airplane but it was flying about 55 miles per hour and was just over the trees and saw no other color of lights so I began to wonder.

It sped up and soon approched a large tv tower about 3/4 mile off of the main road. It went right up to the tower at about 1/3 the full height of the tower and started to orbit the tower. I knew the tower was supported by guy wires that extended out at least 25 yards from the tower so I wondered why the object if it was an airplane or helicopter was not hitting at least the guy wires if not the tower. We stopped the car by the side of the road parallel to the tower and watched the red spherical light moving around the center of the tower. I felt the hair raise on the back of my neck and decided we should leave. Approching a large clump of trees on my left, I looked and saw the light still at the tower, then a large sphere of red light lite up in the trees and proceeded to follow us down the road for about a mile. It was about 10 feet in diamter. They broke off and left.

Other Comments

Had possible UFO related events while in the military. At my business heard many reports from customers over 25 year period. Anecdotal reports are not absolute proof of the alien hypothesis but the existence of a large number of reports by educated professionals indicates that something real is being seen. If the alien hypothesis is correct then lack of overt contact indicates a long term education process-centuries?
