I have no recollection of that last post.. But this one is true.

I may have seen an unidentified flying object tonight.. SERIOUSLY! Why do I think so? My mom first noticed it and asked me if it was a star coz there was only one big, bright ball of light. I said it cannot possibly be a star, coz no star is that big--it's three times the size of a normal star. Even Venus in the dawn is not that big. There simply is no heavenly body seen on earth that's that big. So, we wondered. She therefore concluded it was an airplane since there was a landing strip nearby. Hmm. An airplane flying so low? Imagine one headlight-- IN the sky.

And then, that one headlight became two. A red one popped up beside it. So yeah, maybe it was a plane... Right? But then a small blue light turned on in the middle of the two existing lights. I dunno about you but I have never seen a blue light on a plane. But maybe that's possible. And even if that is so, it is illegal for planes to turn their lights on and off as they please.

Yeah, so perhaps it was just an airplane and I'm only convincing myself it was an alien so that I could feel special... But as far as I know, it is physically impossible for airplanes to hover. The only aircraft capable of that is a helicopter and I would know if that was a helicopter. It was not. There are no hovercrafts here, are there? Plus, an airplane can only move forward, never backward. If it wants to go back where it came from, it has to maneuver at an arc to go back. This one flew forwards, then backwards... or maybe I was just hallucinating.

What was that me and my mom saw at Crystal, Minnesota's skyline this evening? Was it an alien spacecraft? Or was it merely an airplane with malfunctioning lights? Nobody knows. That is a mystery.
