This eliminated any idea that the lights belonged to the underside of a helicopter. He would later describe this apparent pilot as humanoid and wearing dark clothes. He couldn’t tell if it was sitting or standing, but it was next to a “control panel of some kind”. The craft itself appeared to be mainly metallic, with a texture similar to “rough diamonds” which appeared to have an orange glow to it. He further recalled how there was a haze to the area immediately around the object, and that he could hear a “low, smooth hum”. He would estimate the object was around 15 feet wide and appeared to show “tremendous power”. After watching it for several moments, it tilted slightly before vanishing into the distance almost in an instant.

Although no longer on the Government’s radar, UFO sightings persist in being captured and recorded on the people’s radar, namely, through cameras, phones and on ‘social media’, and although these events can still be denied, they cannot be denied with the same integrity sceptics once had, there are just too many of them—aliens that is!

After a mysterious gap of missing ‘time’ where they succumbed to intrusive alien technology, both men realised that they had been lifted up on board this spaceship and were later transported to an underground cavern system.
