Is your hubby willing for you to forward a description of what he saw?

I'm sure he wouldn't mind at all. Here's the story he told me.

He and his father and his dog, Buck (an Alaskan Malamute) were taking a midnight stroll out on the sand flats off Scusset Beach, which sits on Cape Cod Bay in Sandwich, Massachusetts. This was maybe 25 years ago. It was low tide and so the sand flats extended about a mile offshore.

So, they were having this lovely stroll on a lovely midsummer's night when all of a sudden, there was this unidentifiable aerial craft looming directly before them; it had come "out of nowhere." It had turned on its lights, which was the only way it could have been detected by human observers at night since it moved completely soundlessly. And with great speed, fantastically agile in all directions of movement. And then it trained its lights on B and his dad, and rapidly closed in on them, holding its position about 25 yards distant, maybe 25 feet above sea level. As if it were observing or studying them.

Instantly, Buck had gone into defensive mode: He got out between his people and the mysterious craft and started barking furiously. B was totally shocked by the spectacle before him. When he finally recovered his wits, he called Buck to heel, and the three of them wheeled and ran as fast as their legs could carry them back to the beach. The craft simply disappeared as mysteriously as it had first appeared....

Now, at the time, nearby Otis Air Base was fully operational. So at first B wondered whether this might have been some sort of secret military craft. But on further consideration this seemed to him unlikely — because the soundlessness of the craft, and its highly unusual manner of movement were completely unlike anything that man can produce, then or now.

In any case, B believes that what he and his father saw (not to mention that Buck saw it, too) was a UFO. My FIL refuses to discuss the incident to this day. Evidently, whatever it was had shaken him up pretty badly.

Well, that's it, dear brother in Christ! What do you make of it?

What was the SHAPE

of the craft?

How large was it?

It sounds like a fairly typical case.

I suspect that IF they had THOUGHT some specific thing about the craft moving to the right or left . . . it might well have done so in response.

Also, it would be interesting to enquire about whether they FELT any particular sensations in their body.

And, did they have ANY THOUGHTS which may have not been all that typical of them.

Also, did they feel any particular sensation or feeling “come over them” as though an intangible blanket descending on them?

The dog’s response was quite exceptional. There’s often barking etc. However, about as often or more so is cowering and running and hiding. Many times, the animals appear to be frozen, immobile—sometimes in mid-step or mid-bark.

Were there any unusual smells?

Sounds like they perceived it to be utterly silent—which is also very common. Sometimes there’s a low frequency hum.

Sometimes, there’s a kind of ‘ionizaton’ sound and smell.

THX THX.

Much appreciate your responses.

I should copy and file this into a FREEPER file of such.

I’d have a thick file by now if I’d been doing it from the beginning. Sigh.

I saw something I got a look at through a telescope once that I have never been able to figure out.

It was a red center sphere with smaller green lights that looked like spheres flickering as if they were going around it.

It hung low in the western horizon, stationary, just before sunset, and looked like it was lit up from inside. The entire thing was glowing as if it were a light. It was not reflecting sunlight.

It looked the same through the telescope as with the naked eye. I never did find out what it was. I read the papers and all, and we didn’t live near an air force base.

If it had been moving, I might have written it off as a weather balloon or airplane, but it just hung there and flickered for quite some time.

It was pretty weird and I’ve never seen anything like that again, even with all the star gazing I’ve done.
