|
||
| two-piece garment of dark green denim like material with an "anorak" |
|
||
| type hood that almost completely covered his face. He held a silver |
|
||

|
||
| reply, he then asked, "Will you come back?" The answer was "Yes." |

|
||
| with satellite objects was sighted in Racoon Lake, Indiana by five |

|
||
| objects that darted around independently, and later took on these |
|
||
| objects. Green balls of light came from the woods, and zigzagged over |
|
||
| a house. The sightings lasted for over two and a half hours. |

|
||
| hovering above her nextdoor neighbor's mobile home roof. She could |
|
||
| see a large curved window with a thin strip down the middle, and |
|
||
| there was a bright spotlight shining from the lower front of the |
|
||
| object. She heard no sound. She then noticed a "pilot" with something |
|
||
| like a form-fitting hood over his head, motionless. She could not |
|
||
| distinguish any features. Two doors then swung open in the craft and |
|
||
| several small entities exited. She could not see their shapes or how |
|
||
| they moved. The bright light was directed at her and she thought she |
|
||
| was being watched. Frightened, she went back inside her house and |
|
||
| noticed that the beam was now illuminating the interior. She |
|
||
| continued to watch the UFO as it moved around the trailer court, |
|
||
| occasionally stopping, hovering, and shining its light on various |
|
||
| mobile homes. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |

|
||
| morning in a rice paddy outside the village, and that he levitated or |
