UFO's bringing hope to earth? Roberts View From A Bridge
Q: How did the experience affect you personally and your life afterward?

UFO's bringing hope to earth? Roberts View From A Bridge
Q: Can you walk us through what you saw that day on Tonkin Highway?
I saw three lights that moved like they were connected, then they formed into a geometric shape with blue-purple lights, hovered very close, and vanished after a moment. It was so clear and impactful that I knew it wasn't just a trick of the eye.
