Location of Sighting: 5 miles west of Grand Island Ne Hwy 2
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Circular.
Full Description of event/sighting: I was about 16 years old, traveling
west on Highway 2 with my parents and younger brother when we saw
an circular object perhaps, 75' over the highway. It was just hovering
there. As I remember it had many white lights on it and several windows
with light coming through.
My Dad was scared, he stopped the car just before coming to the craft
as he didn't want to drive under it. I had my head out of the window
looking at it, and listening for sound, but could hear no sounds.
Dad finally mustered the courage to drive under it to go home. I kept
telling him to stop to see what it was, but both him and Mom were
scared to death.
When we got home my parents never talked about it, except to say don't
tell any one as they will think you are crazy. They owned a tavern
at the time, and they thought if they told anyone they would lose
business as a question of their sanity. I never read any reports of
other people in the area at that time or seeing any thing. I have
been very interested in UFO's since and my brother and I have both
witnessed other UFO's that have done amazing flying feats in Central
Nebraska.
