Initial data
Two men working at a construction site's fuel station noticed what they thought was a "tent" set up on a raised platform overlooking the Parking lot. The tent looked lit from the inside. Since this was not unusual, the two men set to work at night.
As the men moved one of the diesel trucks towards the gate, they were surprised to find that the light of the cars was reflected from the tent. Very surprised and puzzled when they realized that the supposed tent was an obvious metal object, they temporarily stopped refueling, drove to the entrance gate and parked.
When getting out of the truck, one picked up an iron tire, the other a thick piece of wood. However, the men were unable to explain why they did so, as there was no discussion.
They both cautiously climbed the sloping and uneven surface of the rock to the "tent" that had attracted their attention. As they approached the object at a distance of 25-30 feet (7.5-9 m), several things suddenly happened. As soon as they realized they were looking at a ship.
It was about 15 feet (4.5 m) in diameter, 8 feet (2.4 m) high, flat at the top, had a dome, and appeared to be about 4 feet (1.2 m) off the ground. It was completely silent.
Their attention was also drawn to a black ball that was moving through the interior of the dome at breakneck speed. The two men also got the impression that "people"were walking inside the ship.
As they tried to make sense of all this and at the same time look for a rational explanation, they were suddenly startled by a loud horn-like sound that stopped them in their tracks and clearly gave them the instruction to "stop". Without speaking, both of them immediately dropped the weapons they were carrying, turned around, and calmly walked back to the diesel truck.
The horn continued to sound loudly every 4 seconds, but they still had no sense of fear. It was only after they got back into the truck that a sharp sense of fear overcame them, after which they unanimously declared: "Let's get out of here" and quickly drove back down the mountain to their base, not stopping at the required additional sections to complete the night's work.

Time: evening
Two men working at a re-fueling construction site when they noticed what they thought was a “tent” placed on an elevated surface overlooking a parking lot. The tent appeared to be illuminated from the interior. As this was in no way unusual the two men began to attend to the night’s work. As the men moved one of the diesel trucks towards the gate entrance they were surprised to see that the vehicles light reflected off the tent. Very surprised and puzzled when the realized that the supposed tent was an apparent metallic object they temporarily ceased their re-fuelling activities drove down to the entrance gate and parked. Exiting the truck one picked up a tire iron, the other a thick piece of wood. However the men weren’t able to explain why they did that as no discussion took place. They both cautiously climbed up the sloping and uneven rock surface towards the “tent” that had attracted their attention. When they got to within 25 -30 ft of the object several things suddenly happened. Just as they became aware that they were looking at a craft of some kind. It was about 15 ft in diameter, 8 ft high, flat on top and had a dome and appeared to be about 4 ft off the ground. It was totally silent. What also held their attention was a black ball that moved around the interior of the dome at a dizzying speed. The two men also had the impression that “people” were walking around inside the craft. As they attempted to take all this in, and at the same time seek a rational explanation, they were suddenly startled by a loud foghorn type sound that halted them in their tracks and clearly implanted the instruction to “stop” in their minds. Without any exchange of conversation they both immediately dropped the weapons they had been carrying turned around and calmly walked back to the diesel truck. The foghorn continued to sound loudly every 4 seconds but they still had no accompanying sense of fear. Only upon re-entering the truck did an acute sense of fear overcome them, whereupon they voiced an unanimous “let’s get out of here” and promptly drove back down the mountain to their base without stopping at the obligatory additional sites to complete the night’s work
