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.
