39 Ss UFOs Among the Stars L®: are reported by all kinds of people, regardless of age, sex, race, religion, or education. The only requirement for seeing a UFO is looking up at the right time. In fact, many famous people have reported their own UFO encounters: Future president Jimmy Carter and several other people were in Georgia in 1973 when they observed a large glowing object in the sky. Says Carter, “It was 30 degrees above the horizon and looked about as large as the moon.” The object darted around for a few minutes and disappeared. Carter later reported his sighting to the Center For UFO Studies. Astronaut James McDivitt photographed a UFO while orbiting the earth in the Gemini 5 space capsule. Says McDivitt, “From what | could tell, the object resembled a beer can with a cylinder protruding from the top of it.” McDivitt turned the photos over to NASA, who never returned them. On August 23, 1973, singer/songwriter John Lennon was in his high-rise apartment on New York’s Manhattan Island, when he and his girlfriend, Mae Pang, both observed a “large circular object . . . shaped like a flattened cone” cruise slowly past their balcony. Lennon called the police, who told them that they had already received dozens of calls reporting the same UFO. World-famous boxer Muhammad Ali claims to have seen UFOs on several occasions, usually star-like objects. Says Ali, “The closest one happened when a cigar-shaped ship hovered briefly over a car | was a passenger in. . . What a sight that was.” Sammy Davis Jr. observed several UFOs in Palm Springs, Califor- nia. Says Davis, “First they would stand still, and then they would take off and stop again, before finally shooting away in a flash.” L®: are reported by all kinds of people, regardless of age, sex, race, religion, or education.
