Initial data
Carol Cluckey and Robert white were on their way to dinner in Pittsfield, Maine.
After about a mile, they turned a bend,and Carol, who was driving, was the first to see a bright yellowish-orange light. Suddenly, the light made a perfect vertical landing in the air. They sped up to overtake the object, but the light dropped lower again and was now directly over the car's windshield.
Carol stopped and slammed the car in the opposite direction. After retreating about 50 feet (15 m), they saw that the object was next to them on the left side of the car and about 150 meters from the Ground.
The glow faded, and in the evening twilight it looked grayish, triangular in shape, and larger than a Boeing 747. It had 4 red lights and 1 or 2 brighter white ones. He didn't make a sound.
Robert opened the door to see if it was possible to turn 180 degrees and told her to go back to the driveway of the farmhouse. The object was now almost directly above them at an altitude of about 100 feet (30 m). He noticed that when they stopped, the UFO stopped, and when they moved, the UFO moved! It became clear that " it " did not want to let them go.
Robert got out of the car and ran to the house. Carol called out to him that there was another car coming down the road. Now the UFO was moving slightly away, moving in a northeasterly direction for a distance of several hundred feet, when it suddenly disappeared right before their eyes.
Later, Robert expressed surprise that such a large object could suddenly disappear in such an inexplicable way. They estimated that the total time of the incident to evaporate took about two minutes.

Summary: Carol Cloukey and Robert White had been on their way to Pittsfield, Maine for dinner. After traveling about a mile they rounded a bend and Carol, who was driving, was the first to see a bright yellowish-orange light. Suddenly the light made a perfect vertical drop in mid-air. They sped up to get ahead of the object, but the light dropped lower again, and was now dead center above the car windshield. Carol stopped and slammed the car into reverse. After backing up about 50 feet they saw that the object was alongside of them on the left side of the car and about 150 off the ground. The glow had subsided, and in the evening twilight it appeared grayish in color, triangular shaped, and larger than a 747 aircraft. It had 4 red lights and 1 or 2 brighter white lights. It made no sound. Robert opened his door to see if it was possible to make a 180-degree turn, and he told her to back into the driveway of a farmhouse. The object was now almost directly above them at an approximate altitude of 100 feet. He observed that when they stopped the UFO stopped, and when they moved the UFO moved! It became apparent that “it” did not want to let them go. Robert got out of the car and started to run toward the farmhouse. Carol called to him that another car was coming down the road. The UFO now began to move away slightly, traveling in a northeasterly direction for a distance of a few hundred feet when it suddenly vanished right before their eyes. Robert later expressed wonderment that such a large object could suddenly disappear in such an inexplicable manner. They estimated that the total incident took about two minutes to transpire.
