Waimata Valley, New Zealand

Several red nocturnal lights maneuver. Top-hat shaped object on the ground. All fly away when approached.

An object was sighted that had an appearance and performance beyond the capability of known earthly aircraft.

One red light, about 40 feet across, was observed by four female witnesses, three of them an experienced observors, at a campsite for 120 minutes.

The three witnesses were camping on the site of a Maori burial mound when one of them awoke suddenly and saw a being looking at them. Her memory then went blank; at 0400A all three woke up and left the area. Under hypnosis one of the witnesses recalled that she and one of her companions were drawn onboard a luminous domed disc shaped craft by a beam of light. A humanoid being of medium built and wearing silvery calf length boots met them inside. He communicated by telepathy and warned them to keep silent about the experience.


Hynek rating: CE1: Close Encounters of the First Kind
