Reported: 2002-10-31 11:50 Pacific
Duration: 30-45 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Hammond, IN, USA

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

A floating, rolling silvery-black disk flies over the treetops in Hammond, Indiana.

The object I saw was a silvery black disk that both rolled like a tire in the sky and floated all at the same time above the trees. It looked somewhat square-shaped with rounded edges. It was heading in a north to south direction, in a straight line, right above the trees. It was fairly small in size and compact. A non-commercial plane had just flown over the house in an east-west direction. I had looked up at the plane when I saw the object.

NUFORC Note:

We spoke with this witness on several occasions, and we found her to be seemingly quite serious-minded and credible. She described at length her sighting on the Jeff Rense Radio talk show on Friday, November 1, 2002, and the archived radio program is available at .

Addendum: The witness correct an estimate of the apparent size of the object to approximately the size of a fingernail, held at arm's length. PD))
