The Encounter

The experiencer is a woman who witnessed a UAP sighting in 1982. Recently, she was contacted about her experience and learned that her pieces from the event were never returned or tested. She reached out to a man named Robert Ingberg, who had her piece. In June 2021, they met, and he returned the piece to her, which she had not seen for 39 years. The piece has a silver metallic growth and holds significant sentimental value for her. After the encounter, she expressed a desire to have the piece tested and shared with the world, but she also felt a deep personal connection to it. Robert passed away three months after returning the piece.
