Background

At 7:30 p.m., when his dog began barking furiously, James Balkcom noticed a bright light moving along the railroad tracks at treetop level in James, Georgia. It stopped and hovered above the home of Benton Evans. The Evanses went outside and watched the light, which had colored lights blinking inside it. After 5โ€“10 minutes it began moving along the tracks again with a pulsing 'shh-shh' noise. IUR/Probe reported the case in September 1980 as a low-flying Georgian globe. 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.
