I got into Aliens and UFO's when I was about 4 years old, I don't exactly how it happened.. I would always draw Alien stuff at school and make art with Aliens/UFO's in them. I believe I saw something on TV that sparked it, when I was about 6 I saw that fake Autopsy from the Rosewell crash on Unsolved Mysteries I believe, that's what had kept me into it.. also hearing stories from relatives and my uncle being involved in that kind of stuff kept my mind open to it. How did it come about to you?

-Evan

From my first experience at the age of 4. It has always been a part of my life and I don't really know what my life would have been like without it. It has contributed to the person that I am today. It is as much a part of my life, as breathing.

It is like my faith-without it-I am incomplete. My experieces have helped me to live outside the box of my mind and to live within the world, without being part of the world. They testify to all that I believe.

I grew up as a christian. I got into the UFO/alien craze about
4 years ago. Now, I view the entire thing completely differently.
Now my beliefs do not contradict itself. I believe that Jesus and His
angels ride in UFOs. Its that simple. Now, I have to suffer the rejection
of this truth. My conflict is only with the christians because they
do not wish to accept this truth.

I was about ten years old at the time and it was a dark winters evening. I was on my way to our local youth club with my brother and friends when suddenly I had this urge to stop and look up into the night sky? It was so beautiful, just amazing!!
It felt that someone was there looking down on me from one of those twinkling stars, I was mesmerized. That was the begining of my fascination with life on other worlds and aliens/ufo's...

when i was in kindergarten, the class had gone to a park and we played red rover. i was called over, and after i was stopped, i happened to look in the sky and saw something wierd. thinking back, it basically looked like a ufo from an old 50's sci-fi movie, but the memory stuck with me. so i got interested in them then, and when i could actually read on a vaguely competent level, i started studying ufo stuff...when i could remember.

I remember reading a magazine of this girl who got abducted

After seing what I believe was a ufo or some sort of unknow flying object when I was younger. Then again several years later and then a few more years later and still to this day have a few sightings now and then. I was around 10 or 11 when I first seen something, in the sky that looked like a ufo. I've been interested in ufo/aliens and the paranormal for years and years.

Animorphs!

I completely adored that book in elementary.
It's what got me to study astronomy and what-not.
Even now, in highschool, I like to read them and remeniss.

I got into them around 1st grade, watching some show about aliens, and then in 2nd grade I met this kid in my class who was into ghosts, and aliens, like I was. So that's what got me more into it.

I was pretty young and used to watch "In search of...." with leonard Nimoy and really got into it.

After the Project Blue Book came out, I read that and got into the idea that the government was covering up something...

After all of the reading that I have done I still don't know what the truth is. One side tells you that there are no such thing as UFO's, and the other side tells you thet the UFO's stop by every other week to play a couple rounds of cribbage.

Who knows the truth of the matter..

I was around 5 or 6 years old when i really started getting interested in the subject. I can clearly remember when i was around 10 on the way to california, (headed to disney land from alberta) after drivng for atleast 5 hours straight, as the night was falling i started looking out the window.

There clearly weren't many stars in the sky from what i remember, because one second im looking out, then the next i remember seeing a light just appear out of the sky and start basically following the van. The object clearly moved closer as it got brighter, and zipped either up or down but at the same time it was still somewhat following our vehicle. It was like a bright white light, with no other lights around it, no blue or red flashing lights as a helicopter would have either.

I remember watching this object all the way until we reached the hotel that night to stay at. I went to sleep and never spoke of it.

My parents have never belived in ufo's and i dont think there is any way to convince them otherwise.

In 1995 or so we took a trip out to Whistler British columbia. I was around 15 or 16 by this time. We had a hotel directly facing the mountain, and you could see for miles from the balcony. We stayed 4 days there, and it wasent till the 3rd night that we saw a ufo. I had brought a friend up there, and we had a large room with two beds right near to the window facing the ski hill and the surrounding area.

That night at around 3:00am, as we were still awake, glancing up into the sky we noticed an object zip down from the clouds and all the way up near the ski hills top area.

It went from being a solid tiny dot, to a large dot and being on the opposite side of our line of view in a matter of three seconds. We sat there and watched this object move up and down through the sky and we started to get very paranoid.

I suggested that we wake my dad up to grab the video camera. As i stated before my parents dont belive in ufos nor have they ever belived in anything paranormal.
I went into my dads room that he was sleeping in, and started saying "dad wake up there is a ufo out our window", wake up. He finally got up and came all the way into our room, and my buddy pointed out where the object was. My dad looks at it for about one second and says oh thats just a planet get back to sleep.

I then started asking him for his video camera, so we could record it, but it was being charged for the next day of skiing.

My dad went back into his room, and we continued watching the object go from one spot to the other in very odd patterns. We knew it was not a satalite because they go in our orbit, and they basically move in one direction, they dont turn suddenly.

We had been watching this object for about 35 minutes, when we noticed it turn from a smaller ball of light to a very large light that was headed down towards the ground. Soon as it got about 1000 feet to the ground we noticed a white flash in the sky.

After this point on i was highly interested in ufos, and i started reading up everything i could, to insure that i wasent being fooled by something natural.

2001 was the experience that stuck out the most , and since then i havent really seen anything in the sky. I have documented this story at this forum, as well as at another place that did studies down here in alberta. Its a long story, me and two others saw the object for around one hour and fifteen minutes, until the point where i told my buddy to flash his headlights, then the 3 lighted object seemed to slowly spin, as each light turned off one by one until there was nothing in the sky at all. After that happend of course my buddies girlfriend was freaking out saying to leave, but my buddy royce just parked in a field for a few minutes.

I was talking to them as i was sitting in the back seat of his Bronco, and i didnt really see anything, but to this day they say they saw a Blue round light shine down and go from one end of the area to the road then turn off as it went near the road. Royce had his engine running the entire time at this point so he just pulled it into gear and started gunning at after they both looked at eachother with fear in their eyes. As he started going, i was like "why the heck are we leaving man, what did you two see". They could barely talk, and it took about three minutes to even get an awnser out of them. The oddest part about this is that the next day when royce started his truck to goto work, the battery was completly dead. His dad started freaking out at him asking him what we were doing the night before to seize a brand new battery.
His dad is very mechanical, and knows that you cant drain a battery unless you leave your lights on for hours at a time.

To this day ive always belived that the blue light that shined down had something to do with his battery being dead the next day, as maybe its a source of draining the battery so we would have to walk back to the city.



After seeing this sighting i was positive that there was no way it could have been a natural object. There is always a possiblility of some top secret project, but i always highly doubt they would test within a few miles of the city, in view.




Here is the info the alberta site wrote from our experience.

SE Calgary (Near 22X and Deerfoot Trail) - September 9, 2001: At approximately 11 pm, three witnesses saw three lights in a triangular pattern with an orange light on the left and white lights to the right. While they could not see an solid object inside those lights, they believed that they were very close to it, about 100 yards distant. The lights appeared to be about 50 feet above the storm water collection reservoir. These lights eventually started to dim and then finally disappeared but shortly afterward, the witness reports that a "very dim bluish-white colored light, approximately 6 feet in diameter shone down."

Here is the picture i drew in photoshop representing the area and shape, not really the color of the object, as the lights were really all a bit different.


Here is the site, There is alot of information, few pictures, crop circles etc etc.

How did I get into UFO's?
I was watching my television when I was about 7 and I was watching Unsolved Mysteries. I saw the first UFO for my first time. I asked my mother what a UFO was - and she said an Unidentified Flying Object, you know aliens - from other worlds. Ever since, I've been literally studying everything about them. And to this day, I'm still interested in them - and I have no idea what to believe. I sometimes believe the UFO's, with aliens driving inside them, come to our planet to explore life on other planets. Maybe there more technological and more intelligent than us and they have already discovered how to get to other planets farther away.

>_> you do know fluffy that blue book was dis-information handed out by the government....

My great grandmother saw a saucer hovering right above her house in the early 1940's-she said she saw a grey alien in it, this was all before the huge alien craze and years later she denied ever mentioning it-something she always did when things were true that she didn't want to talk about.

Indeed, My has many a story to tell about his alien friends.
His grandfather, Joe Eubleck in the 1904s saw a large glowing orb in the sky. He also like Stephanie, saw a grey alien. Eh at first mistook it for a russian spy. For it was dressed in a red suit and spoke in a strange language.
But he did not have a camera. For way back in the olden days, such things were only for the rich.

My interest came somewhat recently, about 6 years ago I had a dream. It was so real, a very lucid dream. I always wondered if it was more than a dream and that perhaps I had been abducted.

mel. Moe is very interested in reading your explerience. Do not worry. Moe will protect you from the skeptics.

I'm a very lucid dreamer, I sleep walk, though not for several years now. This particular dream really disturbed me. I was being raped. I saw several gray-type aliens surrounding me. I was terrified. I remember basically becoming extremely coherent, and telling myself to wake up it's only a dream, only I couldn't. I was fighting mentally to wake up and crying hysterically. I'm not sure how long it went on..I remember my husband waking me up. I was physically crying when I awoke. It was the most frighteneing experience of my life. I think what is most interesting about the whole thing, is that I began to have serious health problems that resulted in four out-patient surgeries and finally a complete hysterectomy 3 years ago this January. I told several people about the dream and none of them remember to this day my telling them.

It's like a simple addiction. Once you see one live or not, you become attached to it and all you want to do is learn and learn and learn more about it and just want to know everything there is to know about it!

I was 6, in the summer an after noon fliping channels, getting tired, then a show about UFO came up and i was hooked, i love to give my self chills like that. In fact my friends can't understand why i don't react when I work as a construction worker in a six floor appartment building, yet i trip out of my mind when it's time to talk about aliens.

The things that freaks me out the most are the things that attracts me the most too.

When i was younger my mother used to watch unsolved mysteries all the time. once i got past the creepy music that scared the crap outta me i really got into researching the unknown.

the reason i got into the unknown (not just UFO's but other things too, mostly nessie) is that one me and my dad was working on the car. Well me and him both noticed that they was alot of airplanes in the air. Well me and him didn't think nothing about it so we just keep on working. Then it was just turning night time, then we saw a very large light coming over the trees. Well i taught it was just a copper or a slow moving plane. Then it just disappeared. THen i turned to dad and he looked about like this . So me not believing in UFO's called the police to ask them was there any drug helicoppers in the area, but there was none in the area.

From then on i am a believer.

I got into UFOs when I was pretty young. I think I was about 11 or 12. I saw a UFO magazine in a grocery store and mom got it for me. (I wonder if UFO Magazine is still in print) Even before then as a little kid of three or four I had daydreams about seeing he Earth as if I were above it and moving away from it. I guess you can call that a UFO dream.

The real thing that got me interested was when me and my family were nearly abducted by a UFO. I was about 13 when we were driving down a country road with very little traffic. I noticed a very bright star as I was sitting in the middle of the back seat with a friend on one side and and my little brother on the other. Sister was in the front seat and mom was driving. The star started to twinkle very rapidly. Then the tiny twinkling star turned in to a big flood light that engulfed everything. I mean you could barely see anything. There was no noise. My mother said "What is it!" and hit the gas. The thing moved right with us. It started traveling in the opposite direction it came from just like that. I mean it turned on a dime. It followed us with that bright light on us for about a half a mile then, poof! It was gone just as quickly as it started. Man was I scared. I seem to remember somehow looking out and seeing a round shape. My memory of this thing is pretty foggy as it was over 20 years ago when it happened.

Since that night, I've been really interested in UFOs and the paranormal. As I moved to California about a year after the UFO abduction attempt, I once again got back into the paranormal. I ordered a free Time/Live book called, Mysteries of the Unexplained. Well the book was actually 20 bucks if I decided to keep it. I never paid that 20 bucks. It introduced me to all sorts of paranormal things including UFOs. In my High School years I was into girls, computers and having fun rather than UFOs and the paranormal. When I was about 18 or 19, I was flipping TV channels and decided to stop on this strange hairy man sitting in a chair smoking on a cigar. I had seen this guy on TV for years and always skipped over him. The day I decided to listen he was talking about UFOs. I was hooke on Dr. Gene Scott and listened to him every night when he talked about the paranormal. I then got more interested in computers. Then when I was about 21, I got on the Internet, USENET in particular and would read the UFO related newsgroups. That's where I found out about Art Bell and Jeff Rense. The rest is history. I got so much info on the paranormal and UFOs that it overwhelmed me. It's like I get so much UFO info I'm not as interested as I was.

Ok enough of boring you with my life story. I know it's long but I just have a lot of energy and nothing to do at 5 AM.

Hi to everyone on UM I am a very new member................I became interested when I was quite young. I even remember ordering the unexplained magazine that came out in the newsagents..............should of be buying misty!!! - It is my passion and Yes I do believe that we are not alone.

At school, I was curious about such mysteries until I had a few sightings. With time interest has grown.

Since I was about 6, I used to think I was a Cylon from Battlestar Gallactica.
I firmly believed I was an alien until I was 15 and have always been into the phenomona,I just wish UFO magazine was still out! (Thank god for the internet!)

I saw a UFO when I was about 12 and it made my interest even more deeper.

UFOs exist.

I got into UFO's when I was 5 years old. Me and my mom were leaving IGA (a grocery store) and I looked over head as we were crossing the parking lot, I saw this circular object with some lights, I asked my mom what kind of plane is that, she didn't even look up, she just said "They make them like that now."

That was in 1978, to this day she remembers this happening but she admits to never even looking up because she was to busy trying to get us home.

So I guess that's two "sightings" I've had......

I first got into UFO's about 2years ago. I was at my G-ma's house I was up late drawing. I got bored turned on the radio at this time we had no good FM music stations so I turned it to AM. I came across a station about mystery/UFO/paranormal called Coast To Coast Am.HERE'S THE SITE I listened to the station ever since. They talk about all kinds of things from Chpacabras to Spirits great radio show. You all should check the site out. Comes on most AM station 10pm pacific time to 2am pacific time.

For all of the above -- 'visitations" far too numerous to conclude Mass Hysteria - or are we dealing with something sinister?
Check the following links for your own opinion:
http://www.worldaffairsjournal.com/article1.htm
http://www.cseti.org/ce5.htm

-- Now as to my OWN personal experience -- I will start out with age five when I would wander into a nearby forest to visit "them". Used to drive my Mother crazy - but to this day I do NOT know who "they" were. So were many others of my young relatives (strange that it was since age four or five).

July of 1976 I was driving back to Pensacola Florida from Fort Meade, MD (where my family was living). This was (at the time) along incomplete sections of I80. As a norm I usually drive at night to deal with truckers and not the usual day craziness.
[This story is truncated for brevity]. I was attending a Cryptologic Technician "C" school while in the US Navy. At that time I was a Petty Officer First Class CT"O" Brancher with an ABOVE Top Secret Clearance. The school was for duty at the National Security Agency back in Fort Meade, MD. Eventially to Defense Intelligence Agency.

Along about midnight I encountered one of those swift Georgia storms. The rain was driving hard and I felt the wind picking up. Not long after the radio blared a tornado warning for the area. I ducked under a bridge (as I felt the car lurching - and it was getting difficult to steady the wheel). The storm reached hard winds and I found myself pushing hard on the brake as I felt the car being pulled by the winds. I remained there until the storm passed.

Along about Midnight I stopped at a small (Choke and Puke) Diner near Milton, FLA and had some Joe. At 1:00 AM I headed toward Pensacola - the LAST leg of that trip (not far away).
The drive took me on a lonely (at that time) stretch of road filled with dense fog, my lights barely focussing on the lines in the road (my only source of navigation).
Not more than 15 minutes into that road I saw three small figures, appear out of the fog, walking (more like marching in unison) on the right shoulder. Strange I was thinking "WHY WOULD THREE KIDS DRESSED IN HOLLOWEEN COSTUMES BE WALKING THIS ROAD THIS TIME OF NIGHT?!" All THREE were dressed alike - and had what appeared to be either large heads or helmuts (dressed in yellow and grey bulky jumpsuits - not too unlike a deep sea divers helmut..). I slowed down the car and looked into my rear view mirror, deciding to back up and give these "kids" a ride home. They were not there. I got out of my car and enjoyed the absolute silence all around me.
The NEXT thing I remember I was driving NORTH on a different Hiighway - and it was CLOSE TO 5:00 AM.
Much to my relief I arrived ON BASE just in time to shower, get on a clean uniform and Muster for Class Orientation. After that I slept for almost two days. When I went back to Fort Meade (three months later) I found myself with excruciating headaches and terrible nose bleeds. The NSA Clinic still has my record, which included head X-Rays and some other tests and a STRONG DEBRIEF that because of my clearance I was to remain -- Quiet.
Over the years I got little bits and pieces of what happened .. and until now (except for reporting this to a famous author) this was never told.
NO -- the long drive (26 hours) did NOT fatigue me (as some would suggest) -- I rested much - and my ability to drive long distance was (and still is) a characteristic I enjoy deeply.
I KNOW of several other incidents (one when I was in college) - encountering UFO's and some mysterious figures that would show up a day or two later - those who give you the "eye ball" and then leave. It was during this time that a lot of cattle and horse mutilations were occurring in the Southwest.. 1967/68.

I was ALSO briefed (while assigned to DIA [Defense Intelligence Agency 1976]) and the information that was contained REFLECTS the two links I gave above. I can discuss nothing more about this other than to say: There are MORE THAN ONE race of entities visiting this planet. Much of their work involves situations where human contact is to be avoided. Other situations - humans have and still are contacted for whatever reason(s). And YES - OUR Government (as well as some others) - are working DIRECTLY with these .. entities for reasons I feel best not to disclose.

Many may scoff and treat your individual experiences with ridicule - the deed of that very thing is what the Government maintains as a way to "keep people in check" - and the amount of "Disinformation" continues with the likes of movies, docu-dramas, and so-called "specials" that throw the attention off the REAL TRUTH.
I will NOT deal with nor get into that subject beyond what is stated here.
Just offering my own personal experience......

OK -- so the time at the DINER was ABOUT Midnight ... give or take...
The storm hit about 1:00 AM
