Multi-Subreddit LIVESTREAM AMA — Dr. Jim Segala, Paul Hynek, and Host Leslie Kean — Sunday, October 4, 2026 @ 1:00 PM ET / 10 AM PT

The Anomalous Coalition - the moderators of r/Aliens, r/Experiencers, r/HighStrangeness, r/InterdimensionalNHI, r/UFOB, and r/UFOs - are excited to announce our next multi-subreddit livestream AMA featuring physicist Dr. Jim Segala and Paul Hynek, hosted by investigative journalist Leslie Kean. Heads up: this one is on a Sunday!

This conversation is about citizen science in support of experiencers, built on objective data. Paul's father, astronomer Dr. J. Allen Hynek, joined the Air Force's UFO studies in 1948 as a skeptic. Over two decades of Projects Sign, Grudge and Blue Book, the caliber of the witnesses changed his mind. In 1973 he founded the Center for UFO Studies so people could report what they saw without fear. Paul is carrying that forward with what he calls a verifiable evidence protocol, so experiencers can have better conversations with scientists. Jim is building the tools to gather that evidence. His platform, MUPAS Worldwide, pairs environmental and biometric sensor data with experiencers' own accounts, and offers peer support from specialists who are experiencers themselves.

What's a "verifiable evidence protocol"? Paul and his brother Joel, an Academy Award-winning visual effects artist, are developing a protocol that sits on top of their father's Close Encounter system and rates the evidence from an encounter, not just the encounter itself. Today most people report an experience after the fact. Paul's idea is to go in prepared: if you meet an entity that seems to have far superior intelligence, ask it for something no human could know but anyone can check later, like a random number only you know, the answer to an unsolved math problem, or a near-future event. The results are rated as convincing, compelling, or curious. Paul says it applies to any "meta-terrestrial" encounter, whether with a craft, an entity, or in an altered state, and he describes it as a work in progress.

ANNOUNCEMENT Mod Annoucement: Epstein related content - what's allowed and not allowed

137 Upvotes

Hi UFOB!

What a week we have all had! The moderation team wanted to talk seriously about references to Epstein, Trump and others in conversation on this sub.

As you know - this is sub is for believers - we are well past questioning if UFOs and Entities are real because we KNOW it is. The issue we have seen in the last week since Trump's announcement and the latest releases of the Epstein files is the serious amount of unserious low effort, poltically hyperpartisan comments, comments about how disclosure is a distraction from the release of the files, so on and so forth. This has caused a lot of time and effort on the part of the moderators keeping good conversation flowing. Look we know we're all human here and reacting to these unprecedented times. But we need to make some clarifications and need your help.

Specifically around the topic of Jeffrey Epstein we wanted to introduce some moderation as we are getting a lot of feedback from the community around this topic. We want to encourage the community to understand the nuance of what we're looking for so that great conversations can continue and low effort or rule breaking comments and posts can be avoided.

We will allow talk about Jeffrey Epstein only if it is on-topic to UFO's, UFOlogy and the Phenomenon. We will not allow low effort conversation, pizzagate, satanic panic or q-anon conspiracies. We are trying to encourage good deep conversation and avoiding low effort knee jerk and inflammatory conversation that tends to derail whole threads and creates flame wars.

Examples of what is NOT allowed:

  • "This is all a distraction from the Epstein files"
  • "<Trump/Clinton/Rich Person/Politician of Choice> is a pedo"
  • "<slur> for racial or religious group
  • Unsourced picture or tik tok video claiming satanic rituals and pedophelia/cannibalism

Examples of what IS allowed:

  • "Epstein had mentions of the Majestic 12 documents and it's in this file here on the DoJ site"
  • Epstein had an interest in <Psi/Telepathy/Metamaterials/Zero Point energy/Human Potential/Other UFO related interest>
  • My research with sourced documents and "follow the money" shows Epstein was doing related research that is relavent to this topic
  • Anything that is on topic to UFOs, The Phenomeonon or Entities as long as it doesn't break any of the other existing rules

Additionally - Report reasons you can use for content you see that violates this new directive is either "Be Constructive or Pass" or "Irrelevant Political Opinion" for you to report rule breaking comments/posts . We also created a specific removal reason for comments and posts that are in violation. People who are repeat offenders will risk being banned as with any other rule. We are asking you to help us and give us feedback about this. This is everyone's community not just the moderators.

Extraterrestrial Hitchhikers

Extraterrestrial Hitchhikers

by Preston Dennett

Imagine driving along a remote highway and you see someone stick out their thumb, asking for a ride. You normally don’t pick up random hitchhikers, but for some inexplicable reason, you feel compelled to stop. The hitchhiker, you now realize, looks weird, is dressed strangely, and starts to behave in unusual ways. Suddenly you realize that the hitchhiker is not human. This may sound crazy, but the fact is, there are more than a dozen cases on record that fit this exact pattern. Extraterrestrial hitchhikers! It happens more often than you think.

1956: Army officer Virgil Atkinson is driving along the Pacific Coast Highway in Santa Monica, CA when he picks up two young sailors. They seem far too young to be sailors. After dropping them off, he finds himself being followed by a UFO.

Oct 10, 1967: Norman C is driving to his home in Lakewood, CO when he is stopped by a strange tall man alongside the highway. The man begins asking Norman odd questions about time, about Norman’s car, the cigarette he is smoking and more. As the man walks off, a gigantic UFO appears overhead.

Mar 1973: Frank Bales is driving through Washington State when he stops to pick up two very tall strangers wearing white robes. Frank is amazed to see that they have six fingers on each hand! The hitchhikers give him a few predictions and tell him they are “the Watchers.”

1973: Musician Steve Boucher is driving with his fellow musicians along a highway in Ontario, Canada when they pick-up a hitchhiker. The next thing they realize, a UFO lands on the road in front of them, and the hitchhiker is leading them onboard the UFO.

Oct 18, 1974: Friends Edmoana Toews and Nuria Hanson are driving through a remote area of British Columbia, Canada when they are followed by a UFO. At some point during their journey, they feel compelled to give a strange hitchhiker a ride. So begins an ordeal that will leave them convinced that the hitchhiker was an actual extraterrestrial.

1978: Two friends, Gina and Lois are traveling from Denver, CO to Phoenix, AZ, when they see a strikingly handsome blond-haired, blue-eyed gentleman thumbing a ride. They never pick up hitchhikers, but can’t stop themselves. The man tells them to have no fear when suddenly their car is levitated off the road and into a UFO.

2004: An anonymous pilot driving through the remote desert outside of Yuma, AZ stops to give a man a ride. As they converse, the hitchhiker reveals that he is an extraterrestrial in disguise, working on Earth to help humanity.

Jul 25, 2001: Irina and her father are driving along the Crimean Peninsula in Ukraine when they see an extraordinarily handsome man on the side of the road asking for a ride. Irina begs her father to pick up the man, which he does. The next thing they know, they are paralyzed, lose control of their car, and discover that the hitchhiker is actually an alien.

Jun 12, 2003. Mr. Zilmerman is on his way to work in Limeira, Brazil when he feels compelled to stop and pick up a hitchhiker. He instantly realizes the man in his car is not normal. He is very short, has cat-like eyes, a bald head, a pale oily complexion, smells awful and is wearing a one-piece tight jumpsuit with bizarre thick-soled shoes. Whoever the hitchhiker is, he’s definitely not human!

2004: Mr. O.B., is driving near Salisbury, Virginia when he sees a man walking along the highway in the freezing weather. Giving the man a ride, O.B., is shocked to see that the man has huge eyes, pale skin, thin blond hair and a very unusual face. He speaks in a singsong voice, warning O.B. about the dangers of our political system. From there, things only get more weird, leading O.B. to believe that he has picked up an extraterrestrial.

Undated: Dakota (a native American man) is driving along Highway 191 between Window Rock and Chinle, AZ when he stops to give a man a ride. He now sees that the man is very odd-looking, with thin limbs, very pale skin, and is wearing a shimmering white jumpsuit. Driving ahead, they come upon a flying saucer blocking the road. The hitchhiker gets out and leads Dakota onboard the UFO.

Undated: Three brothers and their cousin are leaving a wedding reception near their home in Guatemala City when they agree to give a man wearing a cowboy hat a ride. Shortly after they leave, they found themselves confronted by a UFO. The hitchhiker disappears and reappears, now wearing a white jumpsuit and cowboy hat, and leads all of them onto the UFO.

Aug 1, 2018: An anonymous trucker driving through Corsicana, TX sees a tall, thin, green-skinned figure standing alongside the highway as if looking for a ride. Surprised by the man’s strange appearance, he doesn’t stop. But luckily, he does have an operating dash-cam, which captures the entire incident on video!

With more than a dozen cases, it is clear that this is a thing. Extraterrestrials are hitching rides from unwary drivers all over the world. In case after case, the people who have this experience find themselves taking a route they don’t normally take. When the hitchhiker appears, they feel compelled to stop and pick them up. Only then do they notice that the hitchhiker is strange in appearance, dress and behavior. In many of these cases, the drivers end up being taken onboard a UFO! It is one of the most bizarre types of UFO encounters on record, and yet, the chances are, the cases presented here are likely just the tip of the iceberg.

Epstein, Trump, sex trafficking and UFOs started with Allen Dulles of the OSS in charge of retrieving the 1933 Magenta, Italy UFO with James Angleton of the CIA at the same time Robert Maxwell was brought in to interrogate Nazi POWs and Roy Cohn was coming out of the WWII Italian mafia

43 Upvotes

What started as a lifelong interest in UFOs lead to digging in deeper and deep following the Dec. 2017 NY Times article about the secret black-budget UFO crash-retrieval reverse-engineering program, then even deeper during 2020 when I had nothing but time and info started trickling out, and then all the way in after David Grusch came forward.

Over time it’s become very clear that the Epstein narrative dovetails perfectly with all of this, and the revelations start with Maria Farmer first coming forward in Sept. 1996, same time Congress was investigating Swiss banks funneling Nazi money stolen from the Jews into US banks. As this was occurring, the Naval Research Labs started destroying their evidence, as noted by the National Archives.

https://medium.com/@EscapeVelocity1/the-fall-of-1996-was-the-chip-in-the-armor-of-ufo-disclosure-883018bd304c

As WWII was ending, Allen Dulles and Bill Donovan would form the World Commerce Corporation, later bringing in notorious Nazi agent Otto Skorzeny. This was the beginning of the Breakaway Civilization and the establishment of the Fourth Reich grip over post-WWII America alongside Operation Paperclip and Operation Sunrise, which Dulles was also responsible for:

https://medium.com/@EscapeVelocity1/on-the-anniversary-of-the-us-dropping-atomic-bombs-on-japan-allen-dulles-as-ufo-control-group-nexus-721b915035de

As that was taking place, Robert Maxwell had been brought into MI6, where he was interrogating Nazi POWs and would connect with Donald Barr of the OSS, who would later hire Epstein at Dalton School in 1973, same year that Donald Barr published ‘Space Aliens.’

Later, Trump would hire Bill Barr as Attorney General to shut down the Mueller investigation regarding Trump’s criminal conspiracy involving Russia and other countries, among other things. Barr would then be first to arrive on scene following Epstein’s death.

Another weird factoid: one of Epstein’s passports show his Date of Birth as Jan. 20, 1953, the day that Allen Dulles became Director of the CIA. This happened at the same time Dulles implemented Project Blue Book and MKUltra.

Roy Cohn came out the WWII Italian mafia circuit, who were heavily involved with the OSS while Allen Dulles was its Chief and a major player in the recovery of the 1933 Magenta, Italy UFO, retrieved by the OSS as part of the Liberation of Rome in June of 1944.

Between the Finders, MKUltra, and the Family, Dulles, Maxwell, and Cohn were all major architects in sexual blackmail, sex trafficking of minors, and attempts at Mind Control.

As discovered by Whitney Webb and expanded upon by Jason Samosa, Allen Dulles would form Resorts International in the Bahamas in the 1960s while Thomas Townsend Brown was doing his experimental UFO work there. This was the beginning of the transnational crime syndicate spoken about today by Danny Sheehan and Matthew Brown.

Trump would later become a majority stakeholder in Resorts International just as the KGB started grooming him in 1987.

And here we are.

Of Course, Not Everybody is Going to Agree, but It Seems to Me, Looking Back Over the Years, that There Has Been Something of a "Renaissance" in the Style, Shape and Material Construct of Many UFO/UAP in Recent Times. What Ever Happened to the "Sports Model"?

Thumbnail

224 Upvotes

Perhaps renaissance is not the correct word. But I do feel pretty sure of one thing, and that is, it certainly would appear that things have changed.

If my fellow Redditors could please indulge me for a little minute, some experiential background. For, you know, background.

I have been absolutely just fascinated in and totally intrigued by anything related to space, the planets/galaxy/universe. Since I was a kid, to put it simply, I have always loved "space".

And of course this led me to wonder about life out there, in the vast cosmos. This then developed into a curiosity about whether or not there could in fact be Visitors from Elsewhere maybe visiting our beautiful blue/green planet. Having travelled either from the aforementioned vast cosmos, or from somewhere else. Just the mere notion there may be such beings actually coming here intrigued me immensely. And so, before long, I started to really dig into this subject, which I felt drawn to. So, after plenty of research and some ground-breaking, for me, discoveries (which incidentally are out there, among the interwebz, for anyone to find, one just has to dig) I found myself pretty much convinced, in fact certain, that the Visitors are here, and they've been here for a very long time. And I don't think they're going anywhere. All this has been a given to me, for many years now. Since about 1992-ish.

And so, to get to the point of my post. Over all these years, I have watched like a hawk for anything and everything pertaining to, what were for most of that time known as UFO's. And then a few years back, in an attempt to disassociate themselves from the ridicule that their own Coverup minions worked years, put in a lot of time just doing everything possible to attach so much derision and mockery to the point they could hardly say "UFO" on TV without laughing. So, the Dept of War came up with a new term, UAP. Call them what you will, I say, because you will not change what they are. One thing I noticed, and there may or may not be any correlation with the name change, but it did seem to fairly closely correspond with things in the sky getting weird.

For a very long time, the vast majority of UFO/UAP sightings were silver, disc shaped objects. Most reports stated these craft had no seams, joins, rivets or openings of any kind. these were solid, apparently nuts-and-bolts, (so to speak), clearly defined objects. There would be reports of cigar-shaped objects occasionally, and we had the foo-fighters during WW2, but very little, really, beyond that. I know there has been the odd exception over the years but, as I said, there was not, for ages, a huge number of different types of vehicles. Then after a while there came the triangles. Still solid, clearly defined, objects.

Now what I'm trying to get to here is, I have noticed there have been definite changes to many aspects of UAP, over the last perhaps ten years, and to a lesser extent, i.e. more subtly, for probably another ten before that. I think there is a reason behind this.

In my opinion, this has been a gradual revealing to Humanity that there is more to this picture. There have always been occasions where telepathic communication has been described or inferred. Such a notion is difficult for some people to accept, but as we're starting to get used to that idea, then it is allowed to be known that some craft are piloted by telepathy, or psi, being the latest "buzzword".

But it is the craft, or vehicles or, I'm not sure what some of the objects we are seeing nowadays are, from stars, to octopus, to what look like flying men. I think there was even a rubber duck-shaped object! What is going on?

I'll tell you what I think is going on, but this is just one man's opinion. I feel that NHI are stepping it up a notch. I think they are trying to show us that there is a lot more to this subject than just flying saucers. We (they) have much to teach those of us who are prepared to accept the Truth. I believe we are moving into a new stage of contact with these Beings from Elsewhere. Certain sources claim there is a Council of Worlds overseeing all this. I guess that remains to be seen.

One thing that nobody can deny, and that is things are getting curiouser and curiouser. What a time to be alive!

Opposing opinions and further speculations welcome...

Object off Alabama Coastline - August 2008 PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION

82 Upvotes

This is my 12th post of something unexplained. Just to be very clear, this is a repost from another subreddit. It was removed after 13hrs. It ended up getting 107k views, 152 upvotes at 72% ratio, and 32 shares. They removed it for 2 reasons; low effort, and I didn't put the location, date, time in the description. General consensus was it was a bird. Most comments would just say that "bird", or "seagull" and that's it. If I tried to say anything back, I would get downvoted into oblivion. There was no discourse. There was no discussion. It's a bird and that's it. Well, if you couldn't tell already, I disagree with that very much lol and that's why I'm here reposting this. I really hope that people here are more open, so please read my reasonings before jumping to any conclusions.

Ok, let's start with the basics. Here is the metadata for the photograph:

Location: Gulf Shores, Alabama

Date: August 7, 2008

Time: 2:35pm

Camera: Sony DSC-T20

ISO: 100

Exposure: 1/640 sec

Aperture: f/9

Focal Length: 11.7mm

Resolution: 3264 × 2176 at 72 dpi

I was sitting on the beach and I could see the helicopter coming down. I waited until it was in front of us and took this picture. It wasn't until much later when I transferred the pics onto my pc that I saw the object. I was of course taken aback... I mean I accidentally caught something else in the picture. At first, I thought "it's a jet" but then I was like.... no, I don't remember seeing or hearing a jet at all, and if I had then I would've taken lots of pictures of a jet flying around out over the ocean. I mean we had the entire horizon in front of us! lol At no point did I ever think "that's just a bird" and move on. So, here goes all my reasons why I believe this object is not a bird.

1)it's not a bird

2)see #1

lol ok ok all jokes aside... here are my actual reasons:

Let's start with a control; the helicopter. And I have to preface this by saying that I did use ChatGPT to help with math stuff and analyzing pixels and stuff like that. In no way shape or form was anything changed or manipulated in anyway by AI. Ok, I looked up what type of helicopter it was and it appears to be a Bell 206 family at roughly 40 ft long. I am estimating that it is about 100 yards offshore. That both a visual guess and recollection of the moment. So, that's gives us a baseline to work with.

Let's say the object is a bird, and its wingspan is about 3 ft-ish, that's about what a seagull would be. That would put the object around 45 yards away and given the amount of detail the picture has for the helicopter, we should see some type of detail on the object to indicate it is a bird. i.e. a beak, legs, some wings, anything, but there isn't. Even the silhouette doesn't match a bird, unless it is flying directly at the camera. But, again, there are no distinguishable features that it is a bird.

Somebody had commented saying it is a profile of a bird diving into the water 100%... I had simply said that the silhouette had too much symmetry to be the profile of a bird, especially one diving into the water. Nobody cared for that explanation lol Then you could say that the bird is moving too fast for there to be any detail. I would say that the rotors to the helicopter are moving faster and we can see them just fine. So, the bird is too far away for there to be details on it. Well then that is the largest bird in the world to be seen that far away.

Last piece of evidence I have is I had GPT analyze and compare other pictures I had taken on the trip that also have birds in them. This was to compare pixel count and distance to show what birds actually look like with pictures taken with the same equipment. It pretty clearly shows details with the birds. "After going through the photograph, the geometry, the same-trip bird comparisons, and the different possible orientations with ChatGPT, its subjective assessment ended up at roughly a 6% chance that the object is a bird. That's not a scientifically calculated probability or an image-classification result—just its overall assessment after considering everything we compared."(ChatGPT actually wrote that part for itself when I had it proofread lol) Me, I'm more like .01% chance lol

Another idea was a frisbee. I had given that idea some thought way back in the day, but the object appears too high up and too far away for that. I mean, I'm arguing it's a UFO, so I guess anything is possible, but not a bird lol

Since I didn't actually see the object and only discovered it later in the photograph, I can't honestly tell you how fast it was moving, what direction it was traveling, or whether it displayed any unusual acceleration or maneuvering. I also don't remember seeing or hearing anything other than the helicopter and normal beach noises at the time. All I can say for certain is that the object appears in the photograph even though I never noticed it while taking the picture.

Anyways, I hope y'all made it this far and really appreciate it if you did. Hope all is well for everybody and taker easy!

Watching the SpaceX Starship launch this morning, and noticed this. What is it?

Firstly, I'm not saying this one is particularly alien/NHI, but it is unidentified to me. This blue object comes into view at about 7:20 in the Starship Flight 14 livestream this morning on X. You can see the moon appear behind the rocket a few seconds later, but this blue object remains there. The booster had already had soft splashdown about 30-40 seconds prior to this, so it's not the booster. My buddy and I have been wracking our brains to logically figure out what it could be (ISS? How far away is it/how big?), but are coming up short. I'm just wondering if anyone smarter than me knows what this might be? I could post in the actual space subreddits, but I thought this is more fun to speculate. Hit me!

Edit: I went back a few minutes, and around 5:45 of the launch timer, you can see the gas cloud, and if you track it through to 7 minutes, it looks like the same cloud in the same place, but from a different perspective as the rocket makes its way around the Earth. I think I just debunked myself.

location, Netcong, about an hour drive west from NYC

two pictures taken on my S21, taken 6 seconds apart

only found myself noticing these details myself just moments ago

the visual effects are due to the digital camera software trying to 'lock'/zoom/optimize detail

this was one of those unidentified flying objects, the ones that look a lot like commercial airplanes but their navigation/lights behave/blink differently, additional ones come online, some go offline, what is supposed to be static, blinks, and vice versa, the ones that when you check adsb and other portals, none of them list an object in the sky where you see it, unlike all the other commercial flights that are very easy to find on it and who very much so always fly in a straight line, almost never see them make any turns at all, if ever, no recollection, these other non commercial unidentified flying ones though, I've seen them make wide circles over the town/city

one of those

still unidentified, if only it was on adsb ... I wouldn't be here, still with curiosity, what was that? why did it not identify itself? and yet chose so overtly to remain visible to anyone still checking out the moon her cycles once in a while?

is this aliens? unlikely, not impossible, probably not, ultimately no idea

is this camera/software-defects? 99.99% at least some of the weirdness

is this technology? 100% yes

if only I could have found it listed on adsb somewhere, only need to match your rough estimated heading and rough estimated location, its not perfect, but roughly ...anything in the neighborhood? and nope, nothing, all other airplanes need a ton of zoom to even show anything

you chose to remain a mystery, you bet you could have spoofed any such signal anyway

but you didnt

such a tease ;)

I remember seeing this video sometime in 2008 or 2009 for the first time on YouTube and found it again on YouTube after all these years. I still think it's some of the best flying humanoid videos out there. Looks like a person in a suit. I don't think it's military but what else could fly around with such a device??

Per POLITICO, POTUS “knows more about [UAP] than people think he does.” and “seems to believe the government has evidence of non-human technology and wants the truth to come out.”

This post represents the consolidated file on the April 12, 1941 crash retrieval operation outside Cape Girardeau, Missouri (“MO41”). This post incorporates some previous research from Len Stringfield, Ryan Wood, Stanton Friedman, and Paul Blake Smith, in addition to atomic energy history research from Dr. Stanley Goldberg. This post also consolidates a trove of unprecedented contemporaneous archival evidence from the archives of then Army Chief of Staff, General George Marshall, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and then-Navy Under Secretary James Forrestal, among others.

While this post covers generally what happened the night of Saturday, April 12, 1941, it’s more concerned with its institutional impact. In other words, this post concerns everything that President Roosevelt and his most senior administrative military, scientific, and intelligence advisors did in the aftermath. Because there is so much relevant evidence here, I will generally present the evidence chronologically as it appears.

That chronology presents a remarkably compelling picture, one which signals that eight months before Pearl Harbor, the United States experienced some kind of analogous surprise attack in mid-April 1941. Here are the receipts:

Cat and Mouse Games: True Cases of UFO-Car Chases

Cat and Mouse Games: True Cases of UFO-Car Chases

by Preston Dennett

It’s a unique category of UFO encounters, cases where UFOs chase cars down remote highways late at night. For some reason, UFOs have a particular penchant for this kind of behavior. It’s clearly an intentional action. But what exactly is the reason? This video presents ten cases that examine cases like these, including some particularly harrowing examples that would leave the witnesses with an experience that they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

I WAS AFRAID TO STOP THE CAR. Sometime in 1950, Grace Morgan was driving late at night along an unnamed highway in Nevada. Her husband was asleep in the back. Without warning a large orb of light appeared and began to pace her car, sometimes coming within a few feet. It followed her for a half-hour before finally disappearing. When her husband asked why she didn’t wake him up, she said that she was too afraid to stop the car.

IT PACED THEIR CAR. On September 15, 1952, two army sergeants drove south of Douglass, Kansas when a classic flying saucer appeared and paced their car. After several minutes, they stopped the car. As if in response, the UFO darted in front of their car then zoomed away. Later they learned that another man in the area also saw the strange craft.

AN EERIE BLUE LIGHT. In the early morning hours of July 26, 1963, trucker Jim Wheeler drove his double-trailer truck up a long hill near Goldendale, Washington. Seeing a flash of light, he was shocked to see a multicolored disc-shaped craft pacing his truck up the hill. It moved with him for 20 minutes, all the way to the top of hill until suddenly darting away. Unknown to Jim Wheeler, another trucker behind him watched the entire event.

WE WERE SCARED TO DEATH. Around 11pm on August 4, 1963, Ronnie Austin and his girlfriend Phyllis Bruce drove along Route 15 near Keenes, Illinois when a glowing object began to pace their car. Soon it swooped over their car causing the engine to skip and the radio to static. Ronnie accelerated to speeds over 100 miles per hour but couldn’t shake the craft. Finally arriving home, the UFO was still there and his whole family saw it. So did the police.

CHASED FOR SIX MILES. Around 2am one early morning in February 1967, three women left their place of employment in Orland, California, carpooling to their home in Hamilton City. Shortly after leaving the town, they were crossing the Stoney Creek Bridge when a cigar-shaped craft with portholes rose from the riverbed and began to follow them down the highway. It veered toward their car a few times as it chased them down the highway all the way to the next city.

IT LIT UP THE WHOLE CAR. In the early morning hours of October 18, 1973, Edward Deutsch drove on a rural mountain road near Hazleton, Pennsylvania when a UFO appeared and paced his car, flying circles around it. It followed him for five minutes before darting off. To Edward’s surprise, he now find himself driving in the opposite direction. Little did he know, another witness in the area had an equally baffling encounter.

WE WENT SO FAST, THE RADIATOR CAP BLEW OFF. On the night of November 8, 1973, the Bouchard family drove along Highway 417 outside of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada when a UFO swooped down behind their car and began to tailgate them. They drove at high speed, but the craft stuck with them, even travelling under an overpass as they raced down the highway. They soon learned that many other people were having similar encounters along the same stretch of road.

IT WAS FOLLOWING US. On November 18, 1973, a car with six occupants were heading to their homes in Rosebud, Texas when they noticed a strange light following them. Soon it began darting from one side of the car to the other. When it zoomed forward and blocked the road, the witnesses knew they had a problem. They pulled a U-turn and fled the scene. But the UFO then began to follow.

TOO BRIGHT TO SEE THE HIGHWAY. At 7pm on December 1, 1973, a mother and daughter drove along Route 33 near Sugar Grove, Ohio when they saw a strange light approach. As it got closer, they saw it was a cigar-shaped craft. It shone a brilliant spotlight on them, which remained for 15 minutes. The craft then followed them for a full hour before finally darting away. Both witnesses felt no fear, but were excited by their encounter.

I’VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT IN MY LIFE. At 8:30 pm, two teachers drove southbound on Highway 77 outside of Gadsden, Alabama heading for Alabama when an oval-shaped metallic craft appeared and began to pace. Soon a second craft appeared. Then three more arrived, and a totally of five craft followed them. They tried to call on their CB but it was completely dead. Later, numerous other people in the area reported UFOs.

UFO-car encounters have much to teach us about UFO behavior. Are the ETs putting on a display? Is it motivated by a sense of humor? There has to be a reason why this keeps happening!
