1968 Metuchen Daylight UFO Encounter

(Full Witness Rendition Image Below)

I had a daylight viewing of low oval metallic object gliding toward a
second identical object, pausing then simultaneously shooting
skyward.

July 1968 Sunday evening. I was 13 years old at the time. I went to
fill the bathtub and get ready for summer school the next morning.
While filling the tub, I went to close the window shade. This was
about 6:30 -7:00 in the evening and was still daylight outside. As I
looked out the window my attention was drawn to a metallic looking
oval object in the distance, moving very slowly along from my left
field of view toward the right. From my location on Maple Avenue in
Metuchen, I could see this object was gliding slowly above the train
tracks, power lines and tree line that ran parallel to what was then
the Pearl Street parking lot. There is now a high rise condo/apartment
complex there, next to the train tracks.

I called for my mother who was downstairs to come and look. At the
same time another identical object appeared on the right, moving
slowly left toward the other object. They both glided slowly and came
to a stop in front of one another, paused for a moment, then
simultaneously shot straight up at such a speed that only streaks of
light were visible – similar to the “hyperspace! ” effect now seen
on Star Trek. Both oval metallic looking objects had no other features
that I could see, and I had a clear view. My mother did not arrive in
time to see what I was shouting about. Read more
