my 1st UFO sighting 1966
Posted: Wed May 02, 2012 6:30 am
i was 4 years old in 1966. i was playing alone in the backyard of a south Texas home when i saw my first UFO. i was very fascinated with the stars and the moon at that age. my mother thought i was very intelligent but it was due to a 3 volume encyclopedia Britannica that we had that had a very pictorial description of the stars, planets, constellations and phases of the moon as they traveled across the sky season by season. i had never heard of a UFO and i didn't know i was about to see one hovering over me.
it was a late summer evening an hour before sundown and to amuse myself i got the dogs water bowl and spilled some of the water onto the concrete patio. little ants were attracted to the water and i used my finger to trace water around an ant encircling it and watched as the ant found itself surrounded by water. using my finger i made the ants island trap smaller and smaller and watched as it would panic being surrounded by water before it quickly evaporated off of the hot concrete. while i was doing this i noticed what appeared to be a full moon directly over head in the reflection. i didn't think nothing of it as it disappeared behind my reflection and i began to mess with another ant. before i started looking for another ant i saw the reflection of the full moon again but thought nothing of it again for about 10 seconds. then i thought about it. the sun is going down. the moon isn't due to come up until after the sun goes down and how can there be a full moon directly above me if the sun is not set yet? so, i looked into the waters reflection and sure enough, there was a white ball in the sky over my head. so i looked up.... there above my head was a white shining ball of light. i could tell it was convex but not if it were globe or saucer shaped and definitely was not the moon. i didn't hear a sound but it was about three seconds before it noticed i was looking at it. it shot straight up away from me and took another 3 seconds to disappear from my sight. i went inside the house and told my father that i saw something strange in the air. he asked me if it were a plane or a jet. i said no. it was a ball of light and it shot straight up and disappeared.
i would like to hear feedback from anyone about white ball UFO's.
