~p 11° Again, we began communicating with the Anchorage Center. We said that we could see a light in the 10 o’clock position at the same altitude and wondered if they could see anything in their radar. The Anchorage Center replied that they see nothing in their radar. I thought it would be impossible to find anything on an aircraft radar if a large ground radar did not show anything but I judged the distance of the object visually and it was not very far. I set the digital weather radar distance in 20 miles, radar angle to horizon. There it was, on the screen, a large, green, and a round obdject had appeared in seven or eight miles (13 kilometers to 15 kilometers) away, where the direction of the object was. We reported to the Anchorage Center that our aircraft radar caught the object within seven or eight miles in 10 ©’ clock position. We asked if they could catch it on the ground radar but did not seem they could at all. Normally it appears in red when an aircraft radar catches another aircraft. I wonder if the metal used in the spaceship is different from ours. While we were communicating with the Anchorage Center, the two pale white lights gradually moved to the left Side and to left diagonally back 30 degrees as if they understood our conversation and then when they were beside our aircraft they totally disappeared from our radar. {Personal statement concerning JAL Flight 1628 sighting of unidentified air traffic, Nov. 17, 1986.
