Just south of the building now was a brightly lit "classic" circular UFO, floating silently and less than 100 feet away from the couple. As John Lennon would later describe, "I wasn’t surprised to see the UFO really, as it looked just like the spaceships we’ve all seen on the cinema growing up, but then I realised this thing was real and so close, that I could almost touch it!". As they watched, the UFO moved silently away.
