Initial data
It was a typically hot summer evening in Gibraltar. I liked walking my dog, and this day I chose a relatively quiet place where Scud, my dog, could run freely. This area is known as the lower southern plateau, at the very end of the Cliff, from where you can see the Mediterranean Sea to the east, the strait separating Europe from Africa to the south, and the Atlantic Ocean, which lies to the west.
I remember sitting on the edge of a cliff and looking out over the Mediterranean. Although it may be hard for the reader to believe, I felt compelled to look in the general direction of the natural elevation (the edge of the Upper Plateau) that stood behind me about 120 meters away. Above this elevation, you'll find a military enclave with a huge and conspicuous white spherical radar.
There, I saw this round-shaped metal ship that floated motionless and made absolutely no noise or sound. It just stood there for almost an hour above the radar at an altitude of about 75 feet (22.5 m) from the ground. Suddenly, it disappeared as if it had exploded.
The next day, GBC television showed footage of a huge baseball-shaped flying machine, from where a small sphere descended on a nearby Spanish oil refinery, then slowly rose up again and disappeared after a few seconds.
Interestingly, there was a forest fire on the Rock, which was extinguished just a day before my observation.

Summary: It was a typically hot Summer´s evening in Gibraltar. I enjoyed walking my dog and on this particular day I had chosen a relatively quiet area, where Scud, my dog, could run around freely. This area is known as the lower southern plateau, at the very tip-end of the Rock, from where you can see the Mediterranean Sea to the East, the Strait that divides Europe from Africa to the South, and the Atlantic Ocean, which lies to the West. I remember sitting on the edge of a cliff and was facing the Mediterranean Sea. Although the reader may find it difficult to believe, I felt compelled to look in the general direction of a natural elevation (the edges of the Upper Plateau) that stood behind me about 120 metres away. Over this elevation you find a military enclave that includes an enormous and conspicuous white spherical radar. There, I saw this metallic round-shaped craft, hovering motionlessly and making absolutely no noise or sound whatsoever. It just stood there for nearly an hour, above the radar at about 75 feet from the ground. Suddenly, it vanished as if it had imploded. The next day, GBC TV showed footage of an enourmous baseball shaped craft, from where a small sphere descended into a nearby Spanish oil-refinery and then slowly climbed up again only to vanish seconds after. Interestingly, there had been a wildfire on the Rock that was put out only one day before my particular sighting. Thank you.
