Starting on Saturday, October 24, 2009, at 12:00am and running through Sunday, October 25, 2009 at 12:00am, the Facebook International U.F.O. Sky Watch Group is holding — you guessed it — a Skywatch that anyone anywhere can join in on!

“On this day we have an opportunity to have a worldwide skywatch…

For a 24 hour period you can help to watch the skies over your local neighbourhood.. You do not have to travel miles to an area just sit in your garden and look up. Granted if you wish to travel then that’s your personal choice, but this is not needed to take part.

Why not get one or two friends together who share your interest in the UFO subject and watch together?”

“Have a camera or camcorder at hand you will need to take images has evidence. Please remember to share any images with this Facebook group, we look forward to seeing them and discussing your findings…”

It hung over the very busy 5 freeway for over seven minutes.

My own UFO experiences have been varied and plentiful; this I attribute to having followed Stanton Friedman’s maxim of, “Watch the Skies!” since I was roughly six years old.

My first sighting was a doozy. After the Challenger space shuttle disaster, all of the country and many of its children were very excited when the next shuttle took off without a hitch. It was due to land at nearby Edwards Air Force Base (where, among other things, President Eisenhower was rumored to have met with aliens of a Nordic countenance back in the 1950s) and I demanded that my mother drive me up to spend the preceeding night on the grounds, so that we could witness America’s triumphant return to space in person.

Hundreds of people, including loads of personnel from the base, had assembled the night before the landing, camping out in their cars and trucks outside the perimeter of the landing strip. Directly behind my mother’s little Sprint was a monstrously masculine pick up, filled with off duty Air Force officers…
