Classification of Close Encounter is usually
an incident involving an object less than
500 feet from the witness. The size of
the object, viewing conditions, or
stereoscopic vision (depth perception)
may render the object in greater detail and
still qualify the sighting as a Close
Encounter even though the object may have
been beyond 500'. The incident
depicted in the logo was encountered during
an intense storm near Princeton, IN,
Aug. 1973. |
