I witnessed a massive delta-shaped craft that silently navigated over the Peak area in North Phoenix in the evening.
This craft did not resemble any man-made object that I'd ever seen and it was certainly not high altitude flares.
There are many high-ranking military Aviation and government officials who share my concerns about UFOs.
The United States government can no longer shun an international dialogue about this phenomenon.
