Craft and Crew sighted

Something had awoke me and made me look out the second story window of my parents' house.  And I saw across the street in a vacant lot a gold and orange spherical object pulsating and hovering inches above the ground.  I would estimate possibly 15 feet or more in height with a matching width.
After observing this for a few seconds movement coming from behind and between the houses brought my attention to 4 figures walking toward the object, human like in stature but a bit thinner, the distinguishing features that caught my eye were the helmets or head gear worn by the figures along with what looked like black wetsuits. the helmets were similar to our astronauts head gear with a single large tinted visor, only they appeared to be more form fitting closer to the head. the other feature was what appeared to be a breathing apparatus at the front that gave the figures an appearance of having heads shaped like that of a doberman pincher.one of the figures looked up and I quickly retreated back inside the window, I dont recall anything after that other then waking up the next morning and peering out the window the next morning,and of course by that time they had departed. This still sends chills down my spine when I think about it and it happened 34 years ago when I was only 12 years old.
Witness indicates that date of incident is approximate.  PD
