The Day I Realized We Are Not Alone: My First Sighting Of A Space Vehicle I leaned out of the car window, looked at the sky and thought "I know you're up there;" suddenly a bright green streak of light flashed across the sky at an impossible speed and grew larger and larger. When the car rounded a corner, we all saw it: a massive, 3-tier Mexican-type pyramid shaped object, floating silently in the air, the entire ship glowing a pale luminous green. We thought we had witnessed it for ten minutes, but when we arrived home we realized an hour had elapsed. I was nineteen years old at the time, and the other witnesses were my thirteen year old cousin, my 39 year old mother, my 64 year old grandmother, and the 26 year old driver of the car (female.) I have had subsequent strange experiences, and also remember strange figures in my bedroom when I was a child. I have since become a successful musician and live a relatively sane life, but my experiences are always with me. ((NUFORC Note: We have invited the witness to contact the other witnesses, and have them submit reports. PD))
