UFO EXPERIENCE (PHENOMENA)<\/strong><\/p>\n (JANUARY 28, 1977)<\/strong><\/p>\n UFO EXPERIENCE (PHENOMENA)<\/strong><\/p>\n TUESDAY JANUARY 18, 1977<\/strong><\/p>\n AT 5:45 P.M. I LEFT MY PARENTS HOME LOCATED IN EAST PROVIDENCE DESTINATION 195 EAST TO, R.I. FOR THE COACHMAN RESTAURANT,<\/strong><\/p>\n 1143 MAIN ROAD. ALSO HAD AN APPOINTMENT AT 8:45 P.M. IN THE AREA.<\/strong><\/p>\n WHILE DRIVING ON 195 EAST & BEING A UFO ENTHUSIAST, I AUTOMATICALLY SCAN THE SKY SEARCHING FOR THE BRIGHTEST STARS. I SPOTTED TWO THAT WERE UNUSUALLY BRIGHT AND CONCENTRATED ON THEM FOR A WHILE. ONE OF THE STARS WAS LOCATED ABOVE THE FALL RIVER AREA & THE OTHER IN NORTH TIVERTON ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE EXPRESSWAY OR IN RELATION TO THE BRAGA BRIDGE ON THE RIGHT. ALL OF A SUDDEN, AS I WAS PASSING THROUGH SOMERSET, THE STAR SPURTED DIRECTLY OVER TO THE NORTHERN SECTION OF FALL RIVER WITH ACCELERATION FASTER THAN ANY JET IV’E EVER SEEN. NEXT I THOUGHT MAYBE I AM HALLUCINATING. TO MYSELF, I INDICATED, IF THE OBJECT SHOOTS BACK ACROSS THE HIGHWAY AGAIN ITS GOT TO BE A UFO! SURE ENOUGH TWO OR THREE SECONDS LATER IT WENT TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE. I WAS ABSOLUTELY OVERWHELMED!<\/strong><\/p>\n THEN I NOTICED THE SPACECRAFT, GLOWING LIKE A STAR, CONTINUE IN A NORTH EAST DIRECTION OVER THE BRAGA BRIDGE. I PREPARED TO EXIT 14S HEADING FOR TIVERTON ON ROUTE 24, LOOKED UP AND COULD SEE THE UFO ON MY LEFT HEADING FOR TIVERTON. THEN I NOTICED IT CROSS OVER ROUTE 24 TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY ON MY RIGHT, IT SEEM TO HOVER THERE FOR A SHORT TIME. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES I COULD SEE THE CRAFT ON MY LEFT JUST BEFORE EXITING ROUTE 24 AND ON TO ROUTE 138 MAIN ROAD.<\/strong><\/p>\n UPON ENTERING THE PARKING LOT AT THE COACHMAN I DECIDED TO PARK AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO THE ENTRACE DUE TO THE EXTREMELY INCLEMENT WEATHER. I PARKED ABOUT 25 FEET FROM THE ENTRANCE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE RESTAURANT.<\/strong><\/p>\n I OPENED THE DOOR, LOOKED AT MY WATCH WHICH INDICATED 6:20 P.M. STEPT OUT AND LOOKED UP-TO MY ASTONISHMENT THERE BEFORE MY EYES AT A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 150 FEET IN THE SKY WAS THIS MAGNIFICENT GLOWING WHITE OVAL SHAPED OBJECT BRIGHTER THAN A FLUORESCENT LIGHT, IT HOVERED WITHOUT MOVING OR MAKING A SOUND.<\/strong><\/p>\n I HAD THIS TREMENDOUS FEELING OF BEING AT PEACE WITH MYSELF FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON.<\/strong><\/p>\n A COUPLE OF MINUTES LATER MY GUEST DROVE INTO THE PARKING LOT. I RAN TO HER DOOR, OPENED IT AND TOLD HER TO LOOK UP AND SHE SAID, WHAT A BRIGHT STAR! I SAID, THIS IS A UFO. WE WATCHED FOR ANOTHER MINUTE BUT BECAUSE IT WAS SO COLD OUTSIDE WE RAN TO THE ENTRANCE.<\/strong><\/p>\n OUR TABLE WAS SITUATED IN THE BACK OF THE DINING ROOM FACING THE BAY WITH A DIRECT VIEW OF BRISTOL, LOOKING SOUTHWEST I COULD SEE THE LIGHTED MT. HOPE BRIDGE. WE LOOKED UP AND WE COULD SEE THE OBJECT, IT WAS IN CONSTANT OBSERVATION THROUGHOUT THE DINER MEAL. AT APPROXIMATELY 7:45 P.M. THE CRAFT MOVED ABOUT 100 FEET, BOTH OF US WITNESSED THIS ACTIVITY AND AND OF COURSE I STATED, DO YOU BELIEVE IN UFO’S NOW? SHE ANSWERED RATHER ABRUPTLY, I ALWAYS THOUGHT THIS WAS POSSIBLE BUT FIRMLY BELIEVE NOW. AT ABOUT 8:10 P.M. THE UFO MANEUVERED ITSELF STRAIGHT ACROSS TO BRISTOL, DISAPEARED, REAPPEARED AND STOPPED IN THE CENTER OF THE BAY FOR TEN MINUTES, THEN FINALLY LEFT OUR VIEW AT 8:20 P.M. IN THE DIRECTION OF BRISTOL.<\/strong><\/p>\n WE DEPARTED FROM THE COACHMAN AT 8:45 P.M., MY GUEST LEFT IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND I PROCEEDED TO AN APPOINTMENT ON THE MAIN ROAD.<\/strong><\/p>\n UFO EXPERIENCE (PHENOMENA)<\/strong><\/p>\n WEDNESDAY JANUARY 19, 1977<\/strong><\/p>\n DECIDED WEDNESDAY NIGHT I WOULD ATTEMPT A REPEAT PERFORMANCE OF TUESDAY NIGHT BY DRIVING TO TIVERTON THEN TO MY SISTER’S HOME IN PORTSMOUTH. WITH CAMERA & BINOCULARS I LEFT MY PARENTS HOME FOR TIVERTON AT 6:40 P.M.<\/strong><\/p>\n WHILE DRIVING ON 195 EAST TO ROUTE 24 SOUTH AT APPROXIMATELY 7:00 P.M., THE UFO WAS NOW TRAVELLING ON MY LEFT AND TRAVERSING BACK & FORTH OVER THE HIGHWAY. I DID NOT EXIT THE COACHMAN ROUTE 138 BUT INSTEAD CONTINUED TO PORTSMOUTH AND LOST ALL ACTIVITY AT THIS POINT.<\/strong><\/p>\n THURSDAY JANUARY 20, 1977<\/strong><\/p>\n AT 8:15 A.M. WHILE WAITING FOR A BUS TO PROVIDENCE I FELT A SHARP PAIN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY FOREHEAD. THIS CONDITION CONTINUED UNTIL LUNCHTIME AT 12:00 P.M. WHEN I FELT NAUSEATED AND DELAYED MY LUNCH FOR FORTY MINUTES UNTIL IT SUBSIDED. WENT TO LUNCH AT 12:40 FEELING A LITTLE DIZZY, THIS PERSISTED UNTIL 2:30 P.M. THAT DAY.<\/strong><\/p>\n I UNDERSTAND AFTER CLOSE CONTACT OR EXPOSURE THIS REACTION CAN OCCUR.<\/strong><\/p>\n FRIDAY JANUARY 21, 1977<\/strong><\/p>\n IT WAS A VERY CLOUDY NIGHT AND AT 6:25 P.M. ON ROUTE 24 SOUTH TO PORTSMOUTH, I NOTICED IN NORTH TIVERTON, ON MY RIGHT ABOVE THE CLOUDS, THIS BRIGHT LIGHT MOVING ACROSS THE HIGHWAY TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE AND HOVERED THERE. I CONTINUED TO PORTSMOUTH.<\/strong><\/p>\n TUESDAY JANUARY 25, 1977<\/strong><\/p>\n THIS WAS A CLEAR NIGHT AT 7:35 P.M. ON ROUTE 24 SOUTH TO MAIN ROAD TIVERTON FOR AN APPOINTMENT, MY FATHER & I NOTICED AT A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 1500 FEET IN THE SKY, A BRIGHT STAR (UFO) HOVERING FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN IT COMPLETELY VANISHED.<\/strong><\/p>\n THIS SUMMERIZES MY UFO EXPERIENCES FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS. IN EVERY SIGHTING INDICATED WITHIN THIS REPORT I NEVER SAW THE METALLIC PORTION OF THE UFO, THE CRAFT WAS ALWAYS ENGULFED COMPLETELY WITH A WHITE GLOW<\/strong><\/p>\n I MUST SAY THAT IT HAS BEEN A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE AND OF COURSE I LOOK FOWARD TO THE FUTURE WITH GREAT ANTICIPATION.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The following is a transcribed diary\/journal of UFO sightings in January of 1977 in Rhode Island. \u00a0It was submitted, anonymously, by the witness’ Great Nephew, and preserved here by request.
