Appearance / Description of Object(s)grey or transparent to a degree, hexagonal 3 dimensional mass Size of Object(s)relative: hands 6" apart actual: 30ft by 10ft v difficult to estimate Distance to Object(s) & Altitudeit was low cloud and it was at that level Description of Area / Surroundingsit was rural and the motorway was empty Full Description & Detailsmy wife and I were driving to calais on the night of 30th October 2005 from the dordogne region we got on to the motorway north of Rennes (A84) at about 2300 and after a while began to notice a light in the sky which was like a search light for planes i thought at first and dismissed it as a night club or a halloween party trick. It was a starry and partially cloudy night as we progressed along the dark motorway, we had travelled some distance when we noticed the same thing again but I was not aware of any nearby towns so i began to watch what this thing was doing from my passenger seat position as my wife was driving. I realised that it was an object because it was 3 dimensional and not a search light or even a sophisticated laser because there was as I say 3 dimensions and no trace of a source. I estimate it had followed us to the left and above our car for about 20 miles, we only overtook several cars as the motorway was deserted and 1 driver had slowed significantly to look up. It was a 3 dimensional mass flying about to the side and above our car. We came to a shell service area after a while and i instructed my wife to pull in, there was a series of small roads and roundabouts leading to the service area and the ufo was flying above and around us all the time. I was concerned now and nervously got out of the car we were on the lit forecourt which was huge i couldnt see an attendant in the kiosk and only 1 car came in for petrol but i stood by my car while my wife remained inside and we both saw it come overhead again I imagined a woosh noise but i think it was silent. I got back in the car and instructed my wife to rejoin the motorway it followed overhead and to the side and we continued at 90mph so that when we saw a car in front we could catch it up and slowly overtake so it might see what we could see. I decided to put it out of my mind as I was scaring myself and started an in depth discussion with my wife to take my mind off it occasionally I would glance out and still see it so I would not look again and concentrate on our discussion until we got to Caen where I began to look again with the confidence that we were entering a built up area which made me feel more secure, I did not see it again and when we continued on to Hon Fleur I once again did not look until we got there. We then continued to calais and I felt it had gone but once again I only relaxed and looked up when we arrived at Calais and it was gone. I am sure there is a plausable explanation but I would like to hear it because I keep thinking back and it couldnt have been a light because of the distance we travelled and it was 3 dimensional i think it was hexagonal in shape there were no bright lights or anything like that which is why i describe it as a silent hexagonal mass dodging about in the sky above and around our car, I wondered why us? it didn't seem interested in any other traffic but I suppose at that time of night there were hardly any other cars on the motorway. I have never reported anything like this before and probably would not do now but I can't forget it like my wife can and probably others do but when i press her for an explanation she agrees it was very strange. Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?NO Witness Backgrounda company director in the automotive industry Views on UFOs, before and after sightingnothing at all complete non believer i probably still am but it would need to be explained to me Reported Sighting?YesReported To:ovniYour Location:Ashford Kent EnglandAge:40 |
