Nebraska UFO Sightings in 1982

Full Report Text:

The saucer was flying high, with no sound and several lights. It passed overhead. I am reporting this on behalf of my grandpa, who has related this sighting several times and is serious whenever he states it.

He has given permission for me to report it. My grandpa and a friend of his were working in the fields at nightfall in the early '80s, he forgot when. They saw a disk-shaped craft move silently through the air above them at a fast pace.

He descirbed it as "two saucers put together" and stated it had lights around the edges. He was in a truck at the time and his friend was in a tractor, and both saw it. My grandpa is experianced in aeronautics, having been a pilot and a avid aerospace hobbiest.

He had no prior belief in UFOs as far as I know and my grandma still does not believe in UFOs, even after his sighting. The next day when he went to work at the plumber's office, he talked to two other friends that told him they were fishing on the Missouri River when they saw a disk shaped object (that they described exactly like the one he saw) pass over them in the general direction of the farm where my grandpa was working. He is absolutely sure it was not a plane, but leaves open the possibility of it being a government aircraft undergoing testing (he lives roughly 25 miles from Offut Airforce base) or a spacecraft.

Sitting on our porch in the afternoon We saw a reddish cloud slowly appear very far away in altitude. After it had manifested, 5 small round shiny things came out and flew around, but the objects flew away from the cloud but not too far, and not around the cloud. They went away.

Then suddenly the shiny round things returned to the cloud as if called back urgently. After the last 1 entered the cloud. It slowly disappeared.

I have never mentioned this to anyone outside our family before, and this is long before I was aware of possible [alternately dimensional] sources of this event. We were Not allowed to read or watch any science fiction. My father was very strict about allowing us to have science fiction.

We were only allowed to read or view real history. The craft seemed to move as if in water, and the redish cloud Never moved with the wind. I later learned that air is the same as water aerodynamically and I suspect that alternate craft are from a water dimension? It just seemed like that as we watched.

It was in the Omaha World Herald, but I have never been able to find it mentioned, after long searching. They are not cooperative in any way.

large, bright disk shaped light, hovered then flashed off at a speed we or anybody on earth would be capable of. i was on interstate 80 heading east, approaching lincoln,neb at 3:00am. i saw at about 10:00 and 30degrees a large bright disk shaped light hovering, it seemed to be 5-6 miles away.

it hovered there for about 90-120 seconds, then it flashed off to the northeastat about a 30 degree angle. it was gone in lest than a second (today when i watch star trek and the ship goes into warp drive, this is exactly what it looked like.) my 14 year son seated in the front seat said did you see what i saw?? both of us had seen the exact same thing.

i have always wondered if others saw this, i went to roswell nm to see the where sightings were. i have noticed an inordinate amount of sightings near lincoln and omaha neb. i have heard people make fun of these sightings, but i will never forget or not beleive what i saw wasn't from "somewhere else".
