It still amazes me that people question whether UFOs are real or not. How many people have seen one, and how many artifacts in history are evidence of their having been here (including objects painted in medieval pictures, maps showing the antarctic landmass below the physical border of the current icecap prior to us even having the technology to define that landmass in the modern age, etc.) This issue is really an old one in human history.
Well, I for one have seen one. And I do not mean a light in the sky at night, but something during mid afternoon, on a partly cloudy but otherwise pleasant day here in San Diego, California, USA.
I was in my office looking out of my window to the north and slightly west toward the city of La Jolla which is on the Pacific coast near San Diego and about three miles north of an American naval air base (Miramar) which was the former location of what was called the Top Gun Flight School (some of you may remember it from the Tom Cruise movie).
I watched something moving in a strange way in the sky in the cloudbank that was just over the coast, but the sky was perfectly clear above me (a weather phenomenon common in Southern California called a Santa Ana caused by warm desert air to the east of us meeting damper air over the Pacific Ocean to the west).
It was a dark shadow moving something like a fish in a murky tank swimming in a fluid and sinuous way, and like nothing mechanical that I would expect to be in the air near our populous cities along the West coast of our military town. Then it slowly reached a break in the clouds where I would be able to see it more clearly. I waited with a sense of curiosity.
What emerged is extremely difficult for me to describe. I will tell you what I thought I saw, and then I will try to describe to you my explanation of what I actually believe I was seeing.
It was a huge circle in the sky, what I first perceived to be a huge balloon shape: it was a dark red-brown (color of a rusted iron frying pan) with a pattern of intersecting horizontal and vertical bands leaving small square spaces between the intersections which contained a very small octagonal shape.
I could only think that it was some new military craft from our local military bases on a test cruise, thinking that it might be something like a dirigible coming toward me head on so I could only perceive the circular nose.
Then the most amazing thing happened. It disappeared and was replaced by a thick black line. I did not see it move away, only change from a circle to a line. I was still gasping when suddenly it vanished and was replaced by the circle again, but this time smaller and deeper into the ever present cloud bank. Then the weirdest effect of all: imagine you see hugh soccer ball in the sky bouncing from cloud to cloud. That is the only imagery I can use to describe the apparent movement of the object. I was absolutely astonished, and to this day, am still awestruck by what I saw. Then, it simply vanished. Was just gone without appearing to have moved away, even at some very fast speed. Just gone.
Now, here is what my thought processes have led me to interpret from these observations. What I saw was actually a huge disk of alien construction moving south along the coast with the edge of the disk pointing down toward the suface. It had been moving in some pattern early on which allowed me to see some of its shape indistinctly in the clouds as a strange shadow.
Then I was only seeing the full circular shape of a disk as it emerged from the clouds allowing me to see its patterned surface, which then turned so quickly that I did not perceive movement, merely the shape of its edge, which then looked like a line. This explains circle to line. Then the disk moved faster than I could perceive back to its edge down position and a little further away from me, so it looked like the circle as before, but smaller. Shapes only appeared to have changed, and movement was not perceivable because of enormous speeds, which must mean inertia was dampened by technology we do not have. Then it moved up, sideways, down, and sideways, etc. again faster than I could follow with my sight, pausing only brief movements before moving again, which gave the illusion of a bouncing ball. Then it left, and moved faster than sight could follow. Nothing more.
I did not report this to anyone, but checked all possible news sources from TV to newspapers for the next several days. No reports. Either no one else saw it (unlikely), or our little military town (major American military port for the US Navy) has lots of control over the media. In fact, frequently military craft would fly over the building I was in going from Miramar Naval Air Station north toward the marine base at Camp Pendelton transporting military personnel, so their presence in the area has been quite apparent for many many years. I also know the area must be heavily controlled by radar because of all the military aircraft it controls. Miramar is a military airport after all. But no news, zip, nada, none. I was at work, I had been carrying on business, I was not drinking, or using drugs or medications, I was in complete control of myself before, during and after.
What I saw, I saw. Nothing explained it, but I saw it. And in such sightings I am not alone. If only one of these UFO encounters is real (and I do not expect you to take my word alone for this), then the case for the visitation to earth by aliens is a fact. For me it will always be, must be, a fact.
I write this to you as a story from someone who claims it personally. The history of such sightings is enormous. Google "UFO" to hear more such stories, and check your libraries on the literature. You may be amused to know one of the very first documented UFOs comes from the log of the first voyage of Christopher Columbus who reports a strange light in the sky when he was first approaching what we now call America from the area known as the Sargasso sea, not far from the so called Bermuda Triangle. Its quite convincing. And the documentation is beyond dispute.
They are up there people. I do believe we have been observed for many centuries. But their intentions are unknown, and probably unknowable. I do not think of them as a threat, but I don't know if I would approve of their methods or their goals. Perhaps they are just waiting for us to grow up enough to meet with them formally. For a mature human race to emerge from its childhood.
Well, just thought I'd tell my tale. Looking forward to talking to you all more about these things...
I've got lots of interests
