We saw what we thought was an eclipsed moon, at first. Saucer craft remained motionless in the sky.

It has been a long time, but it still haunts me, or intrigues me; I'm not sure.  I had just picked up my ex-wife from school in Ontario, CA. An hour, or so past dusk. It had been several months since we moved from the Chino farm home we were renting, to live with my parents to save money. Something provoked me to take a detour that night, through the desolate farmroads of where we had begun our marriage.  It was a fairly clear night; a couple scattered clouds. Thinking back, the whole thing sounds staged. We saw what we thought was an eclipsed moon, at first. I only caught a glimpse, then made a right turn, but continued looking at it in the rear view mirror.  Although the light surrounding it resembled the moon's corona, it was clearly oval in shape, and some sort of craft.  I looked forward, as I was driving and there was the moon in front of us. I had to stop. I turned around, drove toward it slowly, as we approached a stop sign. Here is the corny part; just past the stop sign, there was a mid-80's sedan, stopped in the middle of the road, the interior lights on, the headlight on[I think], all four doors open, and unoccupied, apparantly.  We continued to stare at what we now clearly identified as the "typical" saucer shaped UFO, somewhat concerned with the empty car in front of us. The craft was extremely still, and although it's appearance was not vivid, it was well defined; that is to say, it could have been a hoax, but it was the most elaborate hoax ever.  We looked on uttering silent profanities for roughly 10 minutes, maybe 10 seconds, maybe an hour, who know's.  Then, a streak of light. Suddenly, the patch of light was visible in another location, farther away, but how much farther, I couldn't say.  In fact, I don't know if the craft, while in front of us, was 100 ft., 1000 ft., or higher in the sky.  Hoax? Goverment craft? I will never know.  But I will always know it was not an illusion.
Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.  PD
