Cozad, Nebraska: Van occupants pass huge silent disc over I-80, CB radio picks up bleeps

At 3:15 a.m. on January 8, 1984, three people traveling southeast in a van at mile marker 236 on I-80 southeast of Cozad, Nebraska, saw the highway light up and a huge disc as big as a baseball diamond 75–100 feet above and slightly to the right of the road. Bright lights were evenly spaced around its rim, most white, others pink or blue. As they passed it slowly, they detected no motion and heard no sound. When they tried to communicate by Citizens Band radio, the radio picked up strange interference like an “intermittent bleeping.” J. Allen Hynek reported the case in the International UFO Reporter in 1984. 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.
