Grey metallic disc, top-shaped.
Earl Baker, a metal worker, was awakened by his dog and observed an object 60 meters away at low altitude. It was a gray metal disk, five meters in diameter, shaped like a top with a kind of turret. It was oscillating, spinning slowly, and had three portholes shining with a blue-white light. It hovered for about two minutes, left toward the north, very fast. An object was sighted that had an appearance and performance beyond the capability of known earthly aircraft. One blue-metallic saucer, , around 100 feet away, was observed by one male witness in a city for over two minutes (Earl Baker).
