I would like to add the phrase " That we know of " to the above paragraph, there
is speculation to the contrary.

As a point of intrest, Deke Slayton had a spectacular UFO sighting back in the
50's or 60's. He was interviewed on an HBO special entitled "UFO's, what's going
on ?" in the mid-80's. He stated that he thought at first the object appeared to
be a weather ballon, until he got closer & realized that the object was metallic
& looked like a saucer on its edge. He banked to take another pass at the thing
& it began to fly away rapidly, he then stated that he tried to give chase, but
with an old piston fighter he was totally outclassed. He also wished he had some
gun camera film loaded, because he would have had some great shots of it.

Just thought you folks might find this bit interesting,

Aim High Deke......off you go, into the wild blue yonder....see ya on the other
side..........
