Background

At 6:30 p.m. a young couple in Flemington, New Jersey, noticed an orange ball descending through the cloud layer. It appeared to land on a ridge behind the tree line. At 6:50 (given in the entry as a.m.) the husband saw a bright object ascend from the same ridge, pause in mid-air and then move away horizontally into the distance. Bob Gribble listed the case in his UFO hotline reports 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.
