Kia Ora,

I was just thinking [well, thought was thinking on my behalf] there a wide range of people here at Susan's so have any members ever had a "Close Encounter Of The Third Kind" ?

Well have you ?

I've been followed home by a pink elephant on a few occasions.

The closest I've come are these examples:

1. Climbing up the stairs next to Shuttle Discovery as she sat upright in the VAB at Kennedy Space Center as we got ready to return to space after Challenger. I touched her wing and fuselage. This made the final flight with Atlantis extra emotional for me since I had already been up close with a shuttle.

2. Laying under the stars on a camping trip and watching the sky. We must have seen about 30 meteors streak by, as well as one international space station and one satellite.

3. Watching STS-135 (Atlantis) streak across the sky at night after departing the ISS for the final time.   

I've spent several hours in the same room as Condoleeza Rice.

Does that count?

  Looking at a Chelyabinsk meteorite sample a few weeks ago under a stereo microscope.  This is the E.T. that made us and these contain the early history of the Solar System erased on Earth.  A regular (stony) chrondrite with the iron inclusions appearing crystallized like pyrite.  The blast shock perhaps?   The explosive ride through our atmosphere can do damage to the record these samples hold.  A little steeper in the angle of the entry track and the people of Chelyabinsk could of been toast.

Here is the original Hynek trilogy:

Close encounters of the first kind:  Visual sightings of a UFO.

Close encounters of the second kind:  Physical evidence of a UFO.

Close encounters of the third kind:  Meeting/seeing an alien.

I see myself everyday in the mirror.

Does knowing a Mod called Jamie count as the third kind?
