Ranton, England: Mother and children see hovering disc with two occupants

At 4:45 p.m. on October 21, 1954, Jessie Roestenburg and her two children observed a disc-shaped, aluminum object hovering above their house in Ranton, Stafford, England. Through two transparent panels they saw two men with white skin, shoulder-length hair and high foreheads, wearing transparent helmets and turquoise-blue clothing resembling ski suits. The object hovered at a tilted angle while the two occupants looked at the scene “sternly, not in an unkind fashion, but almost sadly, compassionately.” The case was later described in Flying Saucer Review by Charles Bowen and Gordon Creighton. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
