SKY-GAZERS MI
STAKE PLANETS FOR UFOS

      Visitors from another planet have nothing to do 
with the UFOs which 
were reported along the lake shore Friday and Saturday n
ights. But, 
according to the Coast Guard, the planets Jupiter and Venus are 
involved.
      When the US Coast Guard at Fairport Harbor received reports F
riday 
night of UFOs in the sky, it checked with area airports to learn what 

their radar indicated.
      "We thought it might be someone in trouble setting off flares," 
said 
Petty Officer John Knaub. "So we investigated ourselves."
      Coast G
uard members saw the lights over the lake about 1/4 mile east 
of the mouth o
f the Chagrin River. "But Lost Nation Airport advised us 
that we were seeing 
the planets Jupiter and Venus, which are lined up 
together in the sky. Appar
ently the gases in the atmosphere created the 
appearance of smaller objects 
around them."
      The UFO reports rolled in again Saturday night, when the sky 
remai
ned clear and was dominated by a full moon.
      Knaub said the phenomena is 
visible around 9PM, as skygazers look 
west along the lake from Fairport Harb
or.
