Pennsylvania Wave 1988: Dauphin County Officer Encounters 75-foot Silver Oval
On December 4, 1988, in Dauphin County, eastern Pennsylvania, a law enforcement officer driving to work at 5:25 AM notices a brilliant glow ahead. About 150 feet in the air is a 75-foot long, highly polished silver object shaped like an elongated oval. It emits a humming sound and bathes the car in intense light. The object moves left and right, shoots straight up and stops, then departs out of sight. Afterwards, the officer suffers a sunburn-like effect on his face, severe eye irritation, headache, and neck pain. The paint on his car is dulled and an unusual powder-like substance is found on the exterior. This is the last major case in a wave documented by Stan Gordon's PASU organization throughout 1987-1988, including dozens of baffling cases in western Pennsylvania.
