RED-DOMED UFO SEEN BY FAMILY

Parson, BC - December 30, 1967

Nelson Daily News, January 13, 1968


“It was saucer-shaped with a deep red dome. Underneath it was a brilliant white, and the lower rim changed from green to blue.” This was the eye-witness description of a UFO sighting made at Parson, B.C., on December 30, 1967. A housewife and mother who, with her husband and 12-year-old son, watched the antics of a UFO for more than four hours, Mrs. Mary Hough said she had been unable to sleep and about 3 a.m. she sat at the front room window and watched the stars. At that time she saw a very bright star which disappeared sometime later. At about 3:30 a.m., another bright star appeared. She lined it up with a fir tree in the yard and realized it was moving in the pattern of a staircase. Mrs. Hough got her 8x30 binoculars and gave the above description except that it also changed its position from horizontal to vertical. She watched the object for about an hour and about 4:30 a.m. awakened her husband who also watched the UFO. At about 6 a.m., she awakened her son who also watched the object. The Hough family watched it until shortly after 7 a.m. when they last saw it and the object went straight up.
