The Encounter

Mario Woods was an Air Force Security Policeman on duty at a nuclear missile site on November 5, 1977. At 1:00 AM, he and his partner, Michael Johnson, saw a giant glowing sphere hovering nearby. Four strange beings approached their truck. Mario was taken aboard a craft, examined, and received telepathic messages. He experienced missing time and later found that five hours had passed. When he returned, Michael was unresponsive. Mario spent years searching for Michael, who had been transferred and lost to him for 50 years. After a long search, they finally reunited. The encounter had a lasting impact on Mario, who has shared his story publicly many times and sought validation from Michael.
