FUTURE PRESIDENT FILED UFO REPORT
Future President Jimmy Carter filed a report with the
International UFO Bureau on September 18, 1973,
claiming he had seen an Unidentified Flying Object
(UFO) in October 1969.
During the presidential campaign of 1976, Democratic
challenger Carter was forthcoming about his belief that
he had seen a UFO. He described waiting outside for a
Lion’s Club Meeting in Leary, Georgia, to begin, at about
7:30 p.m., when he spotted what he called “the darndest
thing I’ve ever seen” in the sky.
Carter, as well as 10 to 12 other people who witnessed
the same event, described the object as “very bright
[with] changing colors and about the size of the moon.”
Carter reported that “the object hovered about 30 degrees
above the horizon and moved in toward the earth and away
before disappearing into the distance.” He later told a
reporter that, after the experience, he vowed never again
to ridicule anyone who claimed to have seen a UFO.
