Initial data
Josie Zwanenberg rode on his horse through the countryside, known as Leaderguide.
When she reached the highest point in the area, she stopped her horse and looked at a grove of trees about half a mile away. There, she saw an object hovering silently above the trees. She estimated the object was between 100 and 165 feet (30-49.5 m) long. She had never seen such a plane.
Living near Sesterberg, she had seen many different planes fly in and out of the base, but there was nothing like this object hovering over the trees. This object had many bright white lights interspersed with blue lights. The light was so bright that she couldn't make out the exact shape of the ship.
This object made no noise and seemed completely motionless. She was struck by the color of the blue lights, said it was the brightest blue she had ever noticed, but it didn't hurt her eyes to look directly at them. She watched the object for a full 15 minutes and noticed that it was not affected by gravity at all; he was completely still the entire time.
She approached the object on horseback and kept it in view until she reached the trees. At this point, she stopped under the trees to try to look under the object. Then she heard a rustling sound from the bushes in the forest. Her horse also reacted to the sounds.
When she looked up, the object was gone.

Summary: Josie Zwinenberg was riding her horse along an area known as the Leusderheide. As she approached the highest point of this area, she brought her horse to a stop and looked out at a stand of trees about a half-mile away. There, she saw an object silently hovering above the trees. She estimated the object was about 100 to 165 feet in length. It was not an aircraft of any type she had ever seen. Living near Soesterberg, she had seen many different aircraft fly in and out of the base, but nothing like this object hovering above the trees. This object had many bright white lights interspaced with blue lights. The lights were so bright that she could not make out the exact shape of the craft. This object made no noise and seemed to be perfectly still. She was awestruck by the color of the blue lights, saying it was the brightest blue she had ever noticed, but it did not hurt her eyes to look directly at them. She watched the object for a full 15 minutes and noticed that it did not seem to be affected by gravity at all; it was perfectly motionless the entire time. As she approached the object on horseback, she kept it in view until she reached the trees. At that point, she stopped under the trees to try to look underneath the object. Then, she heard some rustling sounds coming from the brush in the forest. Her horse also reacted to the sounds. When she looked up, the object was gone.
