Background

At 7:30 p.m. a high school art teacher and his daughter watched a disc-shaped object maneuvering over trees in McHenry, Illinois. It had a black top, blue sides, square windows and a reddish-golden metallic bottom. The object then rocked violently, leveled out and flew off, following the contour of the land. The International UFO Reporter published the account in early 1985 under the title "I Know What I Saw…But I Don't Know What I Saw." 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.
