On the night of November 5, 1975, near Heber Arizona, Travis Walton and a his team of loggers were driving home from work through the woods when suddenly, they witnessed a saucer-shaped extraterrestrial aircraft hovering over the trees. Travis, being the most daring of the group, hopped out of the logger's work truck to get a closer look at the outstanding object. The UFO then shot out a beam of light that knocked Travis to the ground unconscious. When he awoke, he was inside the UFO surrounded by 4 to 5 foot tall, big, bald headed, wide eyed beings. Travis's encounter is told in detail in his book Fire In The Sky.
So far, Travis is the only citizen in U.S. history to have substantial evidence of being aboard an alien spacecraft. Even the police were involved and they never found any evidence of a hoax or a lie.
It has been almost forty years since that unforgettable night and Travis recently returned back to the site where it all happened. Open Minds was there to capture the Skyfire Summit.
