Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.
Date: Winter of 1985/86.
Time: Late Afternoon.
One late afternoon in
the winter of 1985/86, in San Jose, CA., I was outside looking toward the
mountains to the east and at the sky. The sky was sparsely filled with
low clouds. The clouds and sky were hued with various colors.
Out of my left eye
toward the north, I saw something dropping down from the sky from more than 10+
miles away at about 30+ miles a minute as I turned my head to see it correctly.
At this time its' distance may have been about 8+ miles away. It looked like a
'block'.
It dropped down
further and began to arch to level to the ground, seemingly coming toward me,
traveling about 4 miles a minute at about 6+ miles away.
It began to move
north to south across my field of view. I was now able to see that its' side
hull wall was tapered that it looked like a saucer, but had a block
appearance to it. Its' outer hull had a dark green, gray appearance.
The hull wall had an
outer plating that was 5 plates tall and the plates wrapped the circumference
of the ship. Each row of plates was offset from each other in a staggering that
brought every other row aligned. These hull plates were set to the base hull
with what appeared to be rivets, very large rivets.
The ship began to
slow in its' north -south direction, to about 2 miles a minute. The ship had
already begun to run parallel to the ground and as it was stepping across my
view the suns light gave it a dark gold, green, gray appearance. At this time
its' size was realized.
I felt very cold, I
could feel the bump, growing on me, but didn't want to be afraid of 'it'.
Now it began to come
back toward me after having stepped across me. It was about 3 miles away. Its'
view took about a reference of 20 degrees from a reference 180 degree field of
view. The lower row of hull plates, in the angular view, was about 20-35 plates
and diameter to height ratio was about 4.5-6 to 1. The sun still shown light on
it.
I was unable to
recount the intricacies of the ship and most gauging are vectors due to there
being no standard frame of reference and the fact that I was taken by surprise.
The hull plates,
each, in their overlap, were held by about 22 rivets along their edge. At this
time the ship had slowed to less than 1 mile a minute. As it continued toward
me I was able to obtain a vector of individual plate area, which appeared to be
about 300 feet wide by 500 feet tall from roughly 1.5 miles away. And
"IT" was still coming.
At this time the
terminator was upon 'it' and 'it' had begun to appear silver, gray. I felt a
sense of stalking me, somewhat afraid. It was less than 1 mile away and took up
about 100 degrees of my field of view. The rivets appeared to be as big as
houses on 'its' hull plates, and I attempted to guage the plate area again. It
seemed to confirm, it was still moving, slowly.
It seemed to be
stepping down toward me. When 'it' stopped it was about, what appeared to be
less than 1000 feet away. Its' footprint was large. The far edge seemed far
away and it was dark underneath. I was able to look up across its' plate-wall
about 4 plates high to a cloud which had settled on the upper hull plates. I
felt it close enough to walk onto it.
It stood there for
what seemed to be about 5 minutes while I looked. Then 'it' "JUMPED
OFF" at a velocity I had to calculate as acceleration according to the
time I was able to deduce by the distance I was able to reference as being able
to see and lock as a standard ability.
The final
accelerative calculation gave 'it' a velocity of approximately 3700 miles in
that splitting of a second. It need be realized that at the end of one second
its' accelerative velocity was much greater if the accelerative vector was
maintained.
It is possible that
the amount of time it takes to read this is comparable to the amount of time of
the real elapsed time of the event.
Thank you to the
witnesses for the report.
