the kitchen. - Come out and see a "flying saucer", he shouts. - Oh, it's only an aeroplane, says Borghild, before her husband rushes out of the door again.

- When I came out I figured out that the strange object would be gone, that it would disappear with an awesome speed. When I ran into the house it ascended without a sound and drifted slowly along the ground. But still it was no more than 60 meters away from the landing-site, routing for the steep wooden hill in the east. It laid horizontally against the ground, therefore I didn't see the underside. But the edge closest to the ground seemed to be fringed all over, says Ola.

"THE OBJECT WAS STEERED"

- While it drifted up the mountain-side the altitude was just above the treetops. About midway up there came another flash before the object continued its course exactly as before and disappeared behind the hilltop nearly 300 meters away. Now Borghild and my father-in-law were outside. Eilif Megard, one of our neighbors who should visit him, drove at the same moment into the country courtyard and caught a glimpse of the shining object before it disappeared. Its light was also so powerful that somebody phoned from a farm six kilometers away and wondered what we were doing, he says.

- How did the surface of the object appear to be?

- To me it didn't seem to be made of metal, but some sort of canvas. The edge underneath was not sharp, but fringed. It looked as if it was hanging small bits of cloth on the underside. The UFO appeared not to be elaborately finished and it didn't seem to be solid either. I couldn't find any sort of windows or openings. And when it disappeared, it moved with a speed no more than 2-3 km/h, I think. Afterwards we have thought a lot about what it could have been, but we haven't found any answer. I am sure, however, that the object was steered by willful purpose, says Ola Roen.
