Capt. Ryder said there were three sightings of an unexplained flash of light reported the night it happened, but he did not include those in the official police report.
Ryder said he later learned there had been sightings of unexplained lights all along the Coast in the nights before Hickson and Parker.
The Sun Herald found a retired professional from a local industry, who described in detail something she still can’t explain under the condition that she remain anonymous.
It was before Christmas 1973, about two months after Hickson and Parker.
She was standing outside her car at a gas station near Market Street and Ingalls Avenue in Pascagoula, when she and others saw a flaming object fly along the river.
“I was putting gas in my car and there were two or three others out of their cars. It was about 8 p.m., good and dark.
“For some reason, I was facing north and what I saw was on my left. We all looked … I don’t always remember things, but boy, I remember this.
“It started out up-river, at about the (U.S. 90) bridge and it came down to the beach, always over the river.”
She said it was just above the tree line and disappeared when it reached the beach. It lasted 3-4 seconds. But in that time, the object traveled more than a mile.
It flew over the spot where Hickson and Parker said they were abducted.
The image is so vivid that 45 years later, she can draw it — the shape of a hat with a stubby brim. It had flames all over it moving clockwise, not like a reentry trail. The object moved parallel to the river.
“We just looked at each other, put our eyes down and kept doing what we were doing,” she said. “We were all embarrassed for some reason.
“And to this day, I think why would we be embarrassed?” she said. “It was like somebody walked up and flashed you, and you’re like, ‘No, we didn’t see that.’”
On September 16th, 1994 at the Ariel School in rural Zimbabwe, over sixty school children described seeing a disc-shaped craft land behind the school during morning break time.
Children reported seeing strange beings, and some received wordless communication about the harm we are causing to our planet.There were multiple sightings of unusual aerial phenomena by hundreds of Zimbabweans during this same time period.
At least seven media crews visited the school. Though initially publicized worldwide, the event quickly disappeared from the public eye - but not from the hearts and minds of those who witnessed it.
Harvard psychiatrist Dr. John Mack traveled to Zimbabwe to interview the children in depth. After exhaustive investigation, he concluded that the children were telling the truth.
Witnesses shaken by sighting
"I tend to be scientific by nature, and I don't understand why aliens would hover over a busy airport," said a United mechanic who was in the cockpit of a Boeing 777 that he was taxiing to a maintenance hangar when he observed the metallic-looking object above Gate C17.
"But I know that what I saw and what a lot of other people saw stood out very clearly, and it definitely was not an [Earth] aircraft," the mechanic said.
One United employee appeared emotionally shaken by the sighting and "experienced some religious issues" over it, one co-worker said.
A United manager said he ran outside his office in Concourse B after hearing the report about the sighting on an internal airline radio frequency.
"I stood outside in the gate area not knowing what to think, just trying to figure out what it was," he said. "I knew no one would make a false call like that. But if somebody was bouncing a weather balloon or something else over O'Hare, we had to stop it because it was in very close proximity to our flight operations."

Dr. Kaku was right. The burden of proof has shifted from those who say U.F.O.'s exist to those who say they don't.
Can you source that , please ?
Outside of one of those "alien" related TV shows ?

Let me ask you a question. If people get it wrong do people also get it right?
British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking says aliens are out there, but it could be too dangerous for humans to interact with extraterrestrial life.
Hawking claims in a new documentary that intelligent alien life forms almost certainly exist, but warns that communicating with them could be "too risky."
Adding artificial intelligence to the machines we send out to explore space makes a lot of sense, as it means they can make decisions without waiting for instructions from Earth, and now NASA scientists are trying to figure out how it could be done.
According to a recent report from the New York Times, a top-secret Pentagon program has been conducting classified briefings for over a decade, analyzing various encounters between military craft and unidentified aerial vehicles.

I must have missed that, when did it happen and where was the evidence? Maybe I'm ruining the party by requesting proof of one particular claim, but it's my way of calibrating the judgment of claimants. Like all the folks who touted the Jimmy Carter UFO story without a lick of basic verification effort because it was good propaganda true or not, they acted like they didn't care. Why should anyone believe anything they claim after that?

I believe despite your mockery (and it is mockery) he is alluding to the possible use of a RAIL gun or other system trying to shoot down unknown objects one of which then goes into rapid avoidance but which your usual idiotic debunkers playing on the general public's susceptibility to supposed expert's claimed were ice crystal's reacting to solar heating and thrusting away under there own power as there surface supposedly vaporized when they entered sunlight, bit of a swamp gas explanation if you don't mind my saying so.
