SIGHTING: PARIS, ÎLE-DE-FRANCE (FRANCE)

Witness Testimony

"NOTE: This is a revised, more detailed version of a sighting I submitted some time ago.I once wrote about wanting to see a UFO ���if only to know they existed.��� After what happened some time later, I���ve been wondering if ���they��� heard me.I remember that day clearly. It was on July 23, 2008 ��� a beautiful day with a clear blue sky. It was late afternoon and still light outside. I was in the kitchen making dinner and standing over the stove next to the large kitchen window. My husband was in the living room sitting at his computer.I glanced out the window and saw a round disk flying slowly over the rooftops of the other apartment buildings. It moved very smoothly and was completely silent -- no engine noise -- nothing. It was made of some kind of white metallic substance that glistened like ice. I���ve never seen that type of metal before. I couldn���t see any windows or who was piloting it. I was surprised but not really afraid. I don���t know why. I just stared at it. There was a soft blue light underneath it that glowed. The blue light shimmered and seemed stronger toward the front of the craft. It passed right above my kitchen window heading in a southern direction. As it passed I saw it join another craft exactly like it. The second one was some distance away at a higher altitude. The first craft joined it and they silently flew side by side in a perfect formation. I watched them until they were far away and disappeared into the horizon. I stood in the kitchen for a long time after that. I���m not sure how long. I think I was still in shock. But I wasn't afraid. I don���t know why. After some time (not sure how long) I went into the dining room. I didn���t know how to tell my husband about what I���d just seen. I thought he wouldn���t believe me. I finally did tell him about it. I think he wanted to believe me, but he���s not quite sure what to think. I don���t blame him. I also couldn���t believe it happened.I feel I���ve changed since then. I never thought much about life beyond my daily experience, especially not anything about space or ETs. That was the stuff of movies. I started reading a lot about other people���s experiences with UFOs and about other sightings in different places around the world. I needed information, and some answers. I read that other people have also had similar experiences, and that many of them are also trying to come to terms with it. Sometimes when I think back to that day, I can���t believe it. But it was real ��� not a movie. I feel more people will begin to see and report UFO sightings. They will continue to increase. It���s as if a global shift is happening. Maybe I���m imagining it, but some days I can sense them in my thoughts. I sometimes see fleeting images of them in my head. It���s not a negative feeling. It���s more like thinking about someone you vaguely know. I tend to look up at the sky more often like I���m waiting for something to happen, but I don���t know what. I���ve read about people who���ve had experiences similar to mine. They���ve also seen ETs but are reluctant to report it or talk about it. I feel their contact with our planet will continue to increase. There���s more discussion about ETs now than ever before. It���s as if we���re gradually being prepared to make a quantum leap in our perception of the universe."
