ARTHUR GODFREY
A Pennsylvania witness at Philadelphia recounts a historical encounter with a UFO that he later discovered was also reported by broadcaster-entertainer Arthur Godfrey, according to testimony from Case 61370 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was at home in Philadelphia on June 25, 1965, when the incident occurred. This report is best told completely in the witnesses’ own words.
“At the time I was 11 years old,” the witness stated. “I am a retired Air Force Intelligence Officer (Major), and veteran of the Gulf War. I was sitting looking out a window when I saw a large bright object descending at a fast rate of speed. It was coming down at a 45 percent angle at perhaps 50 mph. I thought it was a rocket because of its shape – a cylinder with rounded ends.
“I ran and hid behind the couch away from the window. I expected an explosion but heard nothing, so I looked out. I saw the UFO hovering a block down the street over roof tops. The UFO had descended at 22nd Street, descending at the intersection of 22nd and Mount Vernon Street, moving north and then stopping at 22nd and Wallace Street.
“I was viewing the object from my Grandmother and Grandfather’s third floor apartment window at 643 North 22nd Street, Philadelphia, PA, on June 25th, 1968. The UFO followed the outline of all the homes and buildings – opposite my side of the street, including a church.
“It flew just feet above the roof tops. It would pause, descend, and rise, hovering about 10 feet above all the roof tops. It was as if it was viewing inside the homes. It moved slowly traveling at walking pace.
“The UFO was the length of a city bus, with rounded ends, but wider in circumference. It was a large cylinder; it had no markings of any kind, no wings, no visible engines, and no windows. The entire surface was made up of a plasma field, like a close-up image of the sun.
“These gases or ions spun and disappeared under the surface, diving and rising like a gas. The brightness was intense. It was composed of several colors, white, yellow and orange. It reminded me of someone mixing giant cans of paint. It was very beautiful but hard on the eyes because of its brilliance.
“At one point I turned around looking behind me into the apartment and noticed the patterns of light also produced shadows on my Grandmother’s walls. The patterns it produced on the walls were dark with light edges. The patterns matched the moving patterns of the vessel’s surface.
“The only thing I’ve ever seen similar are close-up films of the sun. In addition to the swirling patterns of light I noticed it was layered in a dimple pattern that covered its entire surface. The dimples appeared to vibrate but stayed in place like those on a basketball while plumes of gas rose and fell like filaments of a magnet. This was truly amazing to see!
