I saw a UFO tonight

[DaveM]

Standing outside looking at the night sky I saw a UFO. It was exactly as people have described it. This triangular shape with various colours emulating from it standing still one moment and then varying off to the one side and then just disappearing

Well actually it was a passenger jet as I am on the flight path to the local airport. However I can now see why some people get confused and think they are UFO's It looked very cool I must admit

I see one every time i walk into the garage and see my Tbird....an Undeniably Fantastic Object.

where ya headed?

 

[DaveM]

To Mars maybe

 

[dazco]

See what they have for games while you're up there. Gotta be a better selection than earth's.

 

[otherwise]

We all see UFO's from time to time given that they are only Unidentified Flying Objects. A little inquiry gets most of them into the "Identified" category. I did see one back in 1971 that still has me thinking we had visitors form afar.

I believe thats is the same year i did too ! Seriously. If not the same year It's within 1 year either way, but i'm pretty sure it was '71. I have described it here before i think.

 

[DaveM]

Well I must admit I do think about this a bit and find it very fascinating. I watch this series UFO hunters and you got to think that some of the stories have something to them.

 

[dazco]

I hope this doesn't sound like i'm just another wacko, but what i saw makes most of the stories you see on those shows look weak. What i saw wasn't miles away, it was maybe 1/4 mile away, probably more like 1/8, and it was hovering right over the ground and doing those impossibly fast moves you always hear about. If it were a car it would have done the 1/4 mile in one second from a dead hover. I had a friend with me and we were just shocked, so it's not like i was halucinating.

 

[DaveM]

Well I really think there is something out there for sure but I just wonder why or how we have no real proof of it up until now

All funnin' aside, I drank some beer back then but no drugs. And that nite i was sober as can be. It was while camping in a desert area to get up early for hunting.

hey Dale
I was just winding you up.

 

[dazco]

Oh, I know....no problem. I didn't mean anything other than to just assure you guys this was honestly something very bizarre we saw. There is another part that i didn't mention tho. And whenever i tell people this story i usually leave this part out because it just sounds too much like it's a bit too far out and i fear they will think i'm making the whole thing up. but what the heck. As we saw this thing there was something else we noticed. In a particular area in the sky we saw what looked like a burning ember coming down. It was orange like what a ember from a campfire would look like. But it was way the hell up there. looked to be past the atmosphere. That in itself wouldn't be so odd, but we saw a number of these one after the other. One would eventually disappear, then another one would come down. repeat that scenario maybe 5 or 10 times. What was weird is that every one took the exact same path as tho they were traveling along a rail.

What i CANNOT remember is how long any of these things took place. I don't recall how long each one took to disappear or how long between each one, nor can i recall how long we watched that UFO near the ground. I do recall we watched it for some time tho. it wasn't like 20 seconds, it was a matter of a few minutes. The ember things we watched i believe for a lot longer, probably 10-20 minutes. I also recall being scared out of my wits. As i said we were going to be hunting in the morning so we had guns, and we grabbed those and held them at the ready ! Sounds corny, but we were teens and we had no idea what to do or what this was, and it was extremely bizarre. Ya had to be there, but thats one this i recall very well....how surreal and bizarre it was. If you've ever watched a really bizarre sci fi movie and wondered what it would be like if it actually happened, thats how it felt.
