Initial data
My wife and I were driving in our car on Highway 76, heading east toward Philadelphia on June 2, 1994, when we both saw something amazing around 3:00 p.m. in broad daylight. So far, we've only shared this story with a few close friends.
The reason we still know the exact date is because we were at a concert and I was able to find the date of the concert we attended.
Because we are very close to Philadelphia, somewhere very close to the King of Prussia in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania,
WE SAW IT! Here it is, hovering right in the middle of the highway!
It was a very shiny silver metal disc, hovering just above the road. When we first noticed it, we were walking towards it as we walked east.
We were at a distance of 2000-3000 ft (600-900 m) and was heading straight for him. It could have been no more than 80-100 feet (24-30 m) above the road in our eastbound lanes. There were several other cars on this road going in both directions, but there weren't many of them.
I immediately looked at the other cars to see if they were seeing what we were seeing, but no other cars were close enough to us to attract anyone's attention. We didn't see any cars react to the presence of UFOs, which surprised me because I was expecting to see people stopping now.
This is just the point where things get a little weird. I immediately focused on the ship and remembered thinking how special this observation was, so I wanted to look for any details I could see.
I deliberately focused on the edges of the disk, and they seemed fuzzy or wavering, because I couldn't clearly see the edges of the disk-shaped ship. The rest of the device had a typical disk shape with a small dome-shaped top, as I saw in the movies. At the time, I was struck by the fuzzy edges.
This also applies to the time when I can't talk to my wife. I literally tried and wanted to yell at her something like " Do you see this?» But I couldn't speak. It was like I was in a state of hypnosis or trance at the time.
I knew she was looking at it, too, because I could tell with my peripheral vision that she was looking at it all the time, too. I later confirmed to her that she was also affected by it, and she couldn't speak or shout to me either. It was like being " locked up."
The other very strange thing is that at that time I was driving on the highway at about 65 mph, and I wasn't afraid to crash my car or even pay attention to the road. It was as if time had slowed down and everything seemed to slow down.
When we came to this disc, I was looking at it for at least a full minute (I'm trying to be precise here). I remember that we were getting closer to it as it got bigger as we got closer. Since we were about 800-1000 feet away from him, he finally decides to move.
At first, he slowly rose and gained a little more height. Then it slowly went south and hovered in the south until it was far from the highway. About the time I was passing by, it was to the south of us. But still only 2,000-4,000 feet away from us and still pretty close to the ground. Maybe at an altitude of 100-150 feet (30-45 m) from the ground.
Around the time we were passing under it, he released the "lock" from talking to each other. My wife starts yelling at me to turn around and go get this thing. I, at this point, was still in a state of shock and still trying to catch the last few glimpses of this item before it disappeared.
I began to bend over on my knees to look at him through my wife's window, as I knew we would lose sight of him very soon, as I was still heading east. It flew slowly over the high ground, and I could no longer see it, as it was by then to the southwest of us.
It's not like he's gone fast. It just gradually moved to this high ground and was still there when we lost sight of it. My wife and I had a long argument about whether we should find the nearest exit and try to track this thing down. Once we were in the trance state, we both agreed that it would be wise not to try to resist him again, and so we set off down the highway to our original destination.
We're sorry we didn't turn off the highway to try and find him. This is what happened to us many years ago, in 1994. We're still together, and she and I always talk to each other about our amazing encounters.
We are very sorry that we did not report our incident closer to the day it occurred, but we remember it very well and will never forget that day.

Summary: My wife and I were traveling in our car on Route 76 heading East towards Philadelphia on June 2nd, 1994 when we both saw something amazing around 3 p.m. in broad daylight. We have only shared this story with a few close friends until now. The reason we still know the exact date is we went to a concert and I was able to look up the date of the concert we attended. As we got very close to Philadelphia somewhere very close to King of Prussia in Montgomery County PA, WE SAW IT! There it was hovering right in the middle of the highway! It was a very shiny silver metallic disc hovering right above the road. When we first noticed it, we were heading toward it as we were going East. We were about 2000-3000 feet away and heading right at it. It could not have been much more than 80-100 feet above the road in our Eastbound lanes. There were a few other cars on this highway going in both directions but not too many. I immediately glanced at other cars to see if they were seeing the same thing we were seeing, but no other cars were close enough to us to get anyone’s attention. We did not see any cars react to the UFO’s presence which surprised me because I expected to see people pulling over by now. This is about the point where things get a little strange. I immediately focused back onto the craft and remember thinking how special this sighting was, so I wanted to look for any details I could see. I purposely focused on the edges of the disc and they seemed to be fuzzy or oscillating because I could not get clear vision of the edges of the disc shaped craft. The rest of the craft was a typical disc shape with a slight domed top just like I had seen in movies. The fuzzy edges was what was amazing to me at the time. This is also about the point where I remember not being able to speak to my wife. I literally tried and wanted to yell out to her something like “Are you seeing this?” but I could not talk. It was like the thing had me in a hypnotic or trance like state at the time. I knew she was looking at this thing too because I could tell in my peripheral vision she was staring at it the whole time too. I later confirmed with her that she too was being affected by this thing and she could not talk or shout over to me either. It was like it had a “lock” on us. The other very strange thing is here I was driving down the highway at the time about 65 MPH and I had no fear of wrecking my vehicle or even having to pay attention to the road. It was almost like time slowed down and things appeared like it was slow motion. As we approached this disc, I had locked my eyes onto it for what seemed like at least 1 full minute (trying to be accurate here). I remember we were getting closer to it as it got larger as we approached it. As we were about 800-1000 feet away from it, it decides to finally move. It first moved up slowly and gained a little more altitude. It then slowly started to go South and hovered south until it was well off the highway. About the time I passed it, it was due South of us. But still only about 2000-4000 feet away from us and still pretty close to the ground. Maybe 100-150 feet off the ground. About the time we passed it, is when it freed the “lock” it had on us from speaking to each other. My wife starts yelling at me to turn around and go after the thing. I am, at that point, still in a state of shock and still trying to catch the last few glimpses of this thing before it was gone. I started leaning over in her lap to look out my wife’s window at it since I knew we would lose sight of it very soon since I was still heading East. It flew slowly over a rise in the terrain and I could no longer see it as it was southwest of us by then. It wasn’t like it flew off fast at all. It just gradually moved over to that rise and it was still over there when we lost sight of it. My wife and I had a nice long debate about whether we should find the nearest exit and try to hunt the thing down. After the trance-like state it had us in, we both agreed it would be wise not to try to confront it any further and so we proceeded down the highway to our original destination. We have some regrets we didn’t exit the highway to try to go find it. That is what happened to us many years ago in 1994. We both are still together and she and I always talk about our amazing sighting to each other. We are sorry we did not report our incident more closer to the day it happened, but we remember it very well and we will never forget that day. Ever.
