Case No 102 · UFO Afrinews No 12, July 1995
A Perfect Sphere
1976 ยท His farm in the far Northern Transvaal (now Limpopo), South Africa
What was reported
John W., alone on his farm in the far Northern Transvaal in July 1976, stood in his doorway admiring the sunset, glanced away for a moment and looked back to find a UAP hanging in the western sky, dead still and soundless. A widely travelled man who says nothing else in the world is unaccountable, he was frozen with shock. The object was a perfect sphere the apparent size of a football, shining but giving off no light, with nothing in the clear sky against which to judge its true size or distance. It stayed there about seven minutes like a great eye staring at him; he was sure it was intelligently controlled and wondered whether it meant to attack or was photographing him. Then it began very gradually to move, still silent. What followed he withholds for a book he is writing.
