Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The object was dark or black. It was shaped like a boomerang, and had one dim red light on each end. I could see only the outline and the lights. It seemed to be about the size of a private jet, but I cannot be absolutely sure.

Size of Object(s)

I'm not sure about relative size. I could frame the object with my hands about 16 inches apart. As stated above, it seemed to be about the size of a private jet, maybe a little larger.

Description of Area / Surroundings

A rural area. I'm not sure in mileage how far it was from the university or Easley, but I could find the exact spot again if I needed to.

Full Description & Details

I was driving home to Greenville, SC from Clemson University around 8:30 pm on a Monday or Wednesday in late September or early October of 1989. There were no other cars in sight when I saw a dark boomerang or chevron-shaped object, to my left (which I think is North), hovering above some trees. At first I thought it was a helicopter, but as I approached and saw the outline, I began to slow down. I opened the window to get a better look and to hear it. When I realized it was silent, I pulled onto the right shoulder, and started to get out of the car. I was planning to walk over to the median to get a closer look, but (this is where it gets strange) I heard a voice in my head say something like, "Don't get out of the car!" or "Keep going!" It may have been me telling myself this, that "little voice" of intuition, but I don't know. I remember it struck me as very strange at the time. Until then, I was merely curious about the object. I was trying to figure out what it was. After the warning, I became a little afraid, closed the door, put the car in drive, and took off. I watched the object in the rearview mirror as long as I could, but quickly lost sight of it. All the way home, I kept wondering if I should report it to someone like the police, but I wasn't sure which agency to contact, or if they would even believe me. When I got home, another strange thing happend. When I walked into my house, the phone started ringing. I answered the phone, saying "hello" a couple of times. Whoever it was, after a few seconds of silence, hung up. Now, the phone call could have been nothing more than a wrong number, but considering what I had just experienced, it seemed very ominous, and frightened me all over again. I felt as if I were being watched or followed. I'm willing to concede that the voice and the phone call could have been products of fear, adrenaline, or even imagination, but the object I saw that night was as real as this keyboard.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

The only thing I can compare it to is a stealth fighter, but the object did not move or make a sound during my observation.

Witness Background

I'm a housewife. I have a BA in Geology. I worked in the environmental protection field prior to accepting my current position.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I'm sure I had seen some TV shows about UFO's prior to my sighting, but I don't remember thinking about it much at all. I was open-minded, but a little skeptical, I think. It was a long time ago.

Other Comments

Please don't put my name on the website, since my own husband thinks I'm a nut. I would not mind being contacted by a serious researcher, but no wierdos or stalkers, please.
