I WAS UP WATCHING TV WHEN I REMEMBERED THAT I HAD LEFT SOMETHING IN MY CAR. SO AS I WALKED OUTSIDE I LOOKED UP, AS I ALWAYS DO IN HOPES OF SEEING A UFO. WELL, ON THAT NIGHT I GOT MY WISH.
I SAW SOMETHING THAT MADE ME STOP DEAD IN MY TRACKS. THE OBJECT WAS ONLY ABOUT 30 FT. OVER ME.
I NOTICED IT COMING IN FROM THE EAST FLOATING ALONG AT ABOUT 10 TO 15 MPH HEADED WEST. IT WAS WING SHAPED WITH A WING SPAN OF ABOUT 25 FT. AND ABOUT 10 FT.
LONG FROM THE TIP TO THE TAIL. THERE WAS A FULL MOON OUT AND THERE WAS A STREET LIGHT ABOUT 20 FT. AWAY FROM WHERE I WAS STANDING.
IT LIT UP THE UFO ENOUGH TO WHERE I COULD SEE THAT IT HAD A BROWN SHADE TO IT AND IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS COVERED IN SOME KIND OF FUR. IT HAD NO MARKINGS NO LIGHTS AND IT WASN'T MAKING A SOUND. I ALSO NOTICED THAT IT HAD SOFT, ROUNDED EDGES TO IT, THERE WERE NO SHARP LINES NO SEAMS OR NOTHING ATTACHED TO IT.
THE LEADING EDGE HAD A LONG CURVE TO IT WITH NOTHING ELSE ON THE TIP. THE FRONT END LOOKED TO BE ABOUT 6 FT. THICK AND TAPERED DOWN FROM TO THE TAIL.
ALONG THE TAIL IT HAD THESE HALF CIRCLE LOOKING APENDAGE'S WHICH WERE ABOUT 2 FT. WIDE AND ABOUT 2 FT. LONG EACH.
THEY WERE JOINED SIDE BY SIDE AND RAN ALONG THE ENTIRE END OF THE TAIL. IT FLEW RIGHT OVER MY HOUSE WITH NOTHING IN THE WAY OF MY VIEW. THE UFO DID NOT CHANGE ITS SPEED OR DIRECTION OR MAKE ANY OTHER MOVEMENTS.
IT JUST FLOATED ALONG IN A STRAIGHT LINE. I WATCHED IT UNTIL IT WENT OUT OF SIGHT OVER SOME TREES. I WAS TEMPTED TO FOLLOW IT AND MAKE SOME KIND OF NOISE TO SEE IF IT WOULD SOMEHOW REACT BUT I WAS AFRAID TO BECAUSE I COULDN'T TELL IF THIS THING WAS SOME KIND OF CRAFT OR SOME KIND OF LIFEFORM.
NEEDLESS TO SAY, I COULDN'T SLEEP FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. BELOW IS A ROUGH SKETCH OF THE BOTTOM OF WHAT I SAW THAT NIGHT. P.
S. COULD YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE HEARD OF ANY THING LIKE THIS BEFORE. THANK YOU, +++ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + {___/\___/\___/\___/\___/\___/\___/\___/\___/\__}.

the lighted object i seen in the sky was no airplane, i know what i saw! i was outside and happene to look up and it seemed so close. it was kind of round/oval shape and had different colored lights all the way around it. time i ran to my front door to get man husband and friends, to come see, it had gone so far out that my husband said i was crazy that i probably seen a plane.
i do not care who believes me because i know what i seen and no-one can tell me ay different! i love the sky and i lov watching the stars hoping oneday to see it again. people that are scared of seeing things like this, i guess i can understand but for me if one was to land in my front yard i would walk out to meet them.but thats just me! i would love to be able to experience something like that!

Oval shaped object with flashing lights had no sound & it only was there few minutes & left as a flash thru the sky. Late one afternoon my son & I were traveling home on a usually busy interstate but this day or moment we were the only ones there as this craft came over some trees about couple hundred feet maybe ahead of us it then came to a total stop n dead air, I slowed down and we passed under this object it had no sound what so ever. The object was greyish pewter color & had very small twinkling lights all around it.
As we passed under & away from this object I slowed down & pulled over ( My son screaming & hollering that they want to take us) He's always claimed this. He was about 10 at the time & refuses to discuss this even now, But as we were looking back maybe few seconds passed & it just left in a flash & I do mean FLASH that all we saw was a blurr.

squat spheroid ufo with fanlike underside structure and evenly spaced lights around equator of object We were driving through Mississippi on a two lane state road southbound. It was late at night.I don't know how late.
but probably after midnight. The road was through a pine forest. We were travelling toward sea level and as a consequence the plane of the land ahead of us was visible for a few miles to the horizon (we could see the tops of the trees for a ways ahead due to the downward slow incline of the land).
About near the horizon, I see this lighted object. I first think that it must be an airplane. This is for a good minute or two.
As we approached it however, I realized that the object was not moving and that it was shaped like a squat spheroid and had lights evenly spaced around its equator. I then assumed that it must be a water tower. As we got closer it became apparent that the thing was hovering right on the left hand side of the road about 3-5 feet above the trees.
It was no more than 30-50 feet away from the car at the closest point. The lights on it were bright white and were shining downward. I guess it must have been 30-50 feet in diameter.
On the underside of the object, there was a fanlike rotor structure composed of many thin metallic looking fan blades. There were so many blades that you could not see a gap between them.but it my also have been that they were spinning too fast, so maybe there were fewer blades and it was more of an optical illusion do to the spinning.
There was a slight fog around and above the trees, and the convection of the fan was sucking the fog into the object. I was filled with a very definitive fear and hightened anxiety like I have never felt before. I pointed at the object and could only say, "look, a UFO!" and kept driving.
All 4 passengers in my car verified a short while later at a diner that we saw what we saw. I still know one of the people today. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.
