简介：水星计划宇航员唐纳德·斯莱顿在采访中透露，他于1951年驾驶P-51战斗机时目击了一个不明飞行物。起初以为是风筝或气象气球，但该物体突然以45度角爬升并加速消失，速度远超当时战机。这一事件成为宇航员公开UFO目击的经典案例。

水星计划宇航员唐纳德·斯莱顿在采访中透露，他于1951年目击了UFO：“我当时在明尼阿波利斯测试一架P-51战斗机，发现了这个物体。那是一个晴朗明媚的下午，我在约10000英尺的高度。起初我以为是个风筝，但随后意识到没有风筝能飞那么高。”当我靠近时，它看起来像气象气球，灰色，直径约三英尺。但当我飞到它后面时，它看起来不再像气球了，而像一个碟子，一个圆盘。差不多同时，我意识到它突然离我远去——而当时我的时速约为300英里。我追踪了一小段距离，然后那该死的东西突然加速，以约45度角爬升转弯，瞬间消失得无影无踪。”

Donald Slayton, a Mercury astronaut, revealed in an interview he had seen UFOs in 1951: “I was testing a P-51 fighter in Minneapolis when I spotted this object. I was at about 10,000 feet on a nice, bright, sunny afternoon. I thought the object was a kite, then I realized that no kite is gonna fly that high.” As I got closer it looked like a weather balloon, grey and about three feet in diameter. But as soon as I got behind the darn thing it didn’t look like a balloon anymore. It looked like a saucer, a disk. About the same time, I realized that it was suddenly going away from me – and there I was, running at about 300 miles per hour. I tracked it for a little way, and then all of a sudden the damn thing just took off. It pulled about a 45 degree climbing turn and accelerated and just flat disappeared.”
