UFO sighting near Kennedy Space Center 2000
This happened in Merritt Island, FL about 5 - 10 miles south of Kennedy Space Center. I was driving about 50 mph North bound between Grant Rd. and Hall Rd. (though closer to Grant Rd) when a brightly lit craft that seemed spherical hoovered closely parallel to my 1991 Mitzubishi Mighty Max Pickup. The craft emitted a low hum which I could feel throughout my body. Every hair on my body was raised, though I suspect from fear. The light completely filled the cab of my truck but i was able to see out my windshield fine. I was unable to get more than a fleeting glance because I was affraid and unable to look at it more than once.
I would slam on the brakes hoping the craft would pass but it would stay perfectly parallel to me. I sped up to approx 90 mph which it also matched, perfectly. I was driving in the left lane north bound on SR3 which is bordered by a grass island then the south bound lanes. The craft was above the grass island. It then went staight up and disappeared.
I slowed down and looked around for a helicoptor, police car, riding lawn mower anything that could make what I saw NOT a UFO. I saw nothing. I was a skeptic until that morning. I cannot say whether it was man made or alien being that I live within 10 miles of our access to space.
