The Encounter
Tony Cataldo is a new board member of MUFON. In 2001, he and a friend saw a massive, translucent object above his Napa property while enjoying wine. The object was the size of an aircraft carrier and hovered about 1,000 to 2,000 feet in the air. It emitted a low hum and caused vibrations that shook the leaves of nearby grapevines. After about five minutes, the object took off at incredible speed, leaving a rainbow trail of light. This experience confirmed to Tony that there are other sentient life forms in the universe. He later became involved in UFO studies while producing a film and joined MUFON's board, expressing excitement about his new role.

“I saw one because I've always bought into the theory that this is a very big universe and clearly we can't be the only sentient life-forms around.”
