OT: My UFO Encounter.. (True Story)

[Captain Kwok]

Thanks for sharing your story David. It is interesting to say the least. By the way, do you get the Space channel? They had a great series of documentaries about UFOs and the different amateur/"professional" organizations that cover them. It was on Saturdays for a few weeks in a row a month ago.

I had a UFO experience. It happened while I was camping with my troop of Boy Scouts sometime in the mid-70's. A bunch of us were taking a walk at night when someone noticed what looked like a satellite crossing the sky. It was a solid dot, like what you would see if you did observe a satellite. However, as it approached the horizon, it did a 90 degree turn and travelled horizontal to the ground. We watched it go until it traveled out of our sight. It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen, and have never seen anything like that since. Was it a UFO? Who knows, but it almost made a believer out of me. But I'm more Scully than Mulder. I'll have to see it, hear it, touch it and taste it before I'll believe. But I do hope we're not alone in the cosmos.
