NUFORC Sighting 66531

Occurred: 1966-09-08 20:30 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2008-10-29 14:00 Pacific
Duration: 30 sec
No of observers: 2

Location: Hundred, WV, USA

Shape: Oval
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Object traveled across hills at moderate speed illuminating tree tops as it passed.

Object traveled from the West towards the East across US route 250 at moderate speed. It pulsed with a red hue as it traveled and the pulsing (dull red to bright red) illuminated the tree tops as it passed overhead.

My friend and I were the only observers. We were 14 at the time and were returning from a Boy Scout meeting.

We have slightly dissimilar memories of the object to this day, but I recall the hazing we recieved at school the next day because the first or second episode of Star Trek was on at the time of our sighting(unknown by us at the time because neither of our families received NBC broadcasts at that time) and our classmates teased us about seeing the "Enterprise."

It therefore had to be in September 1966 that we witnessed the craft.
