| |
| 1913 - At 9:02 p.m. a formation of lights resembling an express train |
| in the sky was seen over Eesterhazy, Mortlach and other parts of |
| southeastern Saskatchewan. It emerged from the northwest, and |
| continued across the sky in several successions for more than three |
| minutes. (Sources: William R.  Corliss & Jerome Clark, UFO Calendar |
| 1999; Richard F. Haines, Project Delta, p. 42; citing Sky & |
| Telescope; George Eberhart, A Geo-Bibliography of Anomalies, p. 283, |
| citing The Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1913, p. 145). |

| Montana around five o'clock in the late afternoon. It headed off |
| toward the southwest. (Source: J. Bernard Delair, UFO Register, |
| volume 8 (1977), citing the Flathead Courier, February 11, 1915). |
| |
| 1953 - A U.S.Marine Corps pilot chased a rocket-like object for over |
| three minutes over Cherry Point, North Carolina at 10:30 a.m. The |
| luminous object with a red glow climbed rapidly. It had no wings or |
| tail section. (Sources: Project Blue Book files, February 1953; Larry |
| Hatch, U computer database, case #2981). |
| |
| 1957 - On or about this date a woman driving along a desolate road in |
| Ridgefield, Connecticut encountered a five meter long cigar-shaped |
| object close to the ground on the left side of the road. It had |
| several portholes about half a meter in diameter that were lit by a |
| yellow light. Shadows could be seen moving around behind the windows. |
| It took off going straight up. (Source: Thomas M. Olsen, The |
| Reference for Outstanding UFO Sighting Reports, case 86, citing APRO |
| Bulletin, March 1962, p. 1). |
| |
| 1962 - Mr. R. Wildman was driving along a road in Aston Clinton, |
| England taking a new car to Swansea for delivery, when at 3:30 a.m. |
| he encountered a 40-foot wide oval-shaped domed disc with black marks |
| around the rim, 20-30 feet above the ground. The object seemed |
| metallic, was white in color with portholes, and made no sound. The |
| car's engine stopped when he was 20 meters away, but the headlights |
| remained on. The incident lasted five minutes. (Sources: Richard |
| Hall, The UFO Evidence (Volume I), p. 75; Jacques Vallee, Passport to |

| |
| 1966 - At 8:20 p.m. a glowing ovoid object hovered and made circular |
| maneuvers in the sky for 15 minutes in Heytesbury, near Warminster in |
| Wiltshire, England. It changed colors as well, reported the witness, |
| a man named Baldwin. (Sources: Arthur Shuttlewood, The Warminister |
| Mystery, p. 157; Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 7066; Contact |
| U.K. catalogue of UFO reports). |
| |
| 1967 - Police officer D. E. Swider was driving on Interstate 65 eight |
| miles south of Seymour, Indiana at 7:50 p.m. when he encountered a |
| huge, round object that moved slowly, changing colors from white |
| to red to orange as it slowed, then accelerated. Venus was visible at |
| the time. (Source: Francis L. Ridge, Regional Encounters, p. 28). |
| |
| 1967 - At 8:45 p.m. Donald and Marie Guseman were driving on U.S. |
| Highway 13 in Odessa, Delaware when they encountered a 50 foot wide |
| disc-shaped object with a cupola and ports underneath, and forwardly |
| placed light beams. It also had a green light on one side and a red |
| light on the other. It hovered motionless over some trees, then |
| emitted light beams that swung upwards at a 45-degree angle into the |
| sky. The object began moving away, and then suddenly disappeared. |
| Their close encounter lasted two minutes. (Source: Project Blue Book |

| Ufologist, April 1999, p. 54; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, |
| Volume II: A Thirty Year Report, p. 327). |
| |
| 1969 - At 1:00 a.m. in St. Martin de Londres, Herault department, |
| France a 40-year-old farmer and his assistant saw a large stationary |
| disc that hovered low over his goats in a pasture. The billy-goat |
| became impotent as a result, and his dogs started barking every |
| morning at 2 a.m. (Sources: Lumieres dans la Nuit, July 1969; FSR, |
| January-February 1970, p. 13 & January-February 1972, p. 26; UNICAT, |
| case # 491 citing Fernand Lagarde, Mysterieuses Soucoupes Volantes, |

| |
| 1973 - At 3:00 a.m. three people driving in a car on the A414 highway |
| between Hemel Hempstead and St. Albans in Hertford, England |
| encountered a bright yellow sphere hovering low over the road, about |
| 20 or 30 feet above a viaduct. Their car engine stopped. The car |
| engine restarted inself when the sphere rose vertically into the sky |
| and departed. (Sources: FSR, March 1973, p. 32; Mark Rodeghier, UFO |
| Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, p. 56; Geoffrey Falla, BUFORA |
| Vehicle Interference Project, p. 63; Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence, |
| Volume II: A Thirty Year Report, p. 254). |
| |
| 1974 - At around 9:00 p.m. four people riding in a car traveling on a |
| highway north-northeast of Evansville, Indiana were levitated by a |
| UFO and lost consciousness. When they recovered they had over two |
| hours of missing time. One of the abductees recalled interacting with |
| an occupant of the UFO, who looked to be human, and who somehow knew |
| the names of the four of them. (Sources: Francis L. Ridge, Regional |
| Encounters, p. 46; Larry Hatch, U computer database). |
| |
| 1974 - That same night David Swanner of Shores Community, Tennessee |
| claims he was invited by two "men" to ride in a UFO. In a few moments |
| after accepting their invitation they flew over San Francisco, then |
| the Hawaiian Islands. His round trip excursion took only 45 minutes. |
| The purpose of their presence, he was told, was to warn of the |
| "possible destruction of Solar System by atomic bombs." The UFOnauts |
| were between four and five feet tall, wore white coveralls, and had |
| long, pointed chins, with tall foreheads and small eyes, ears, and |
| noses. They claimed that their lifespan was between 125-175 years. |
| Mr. Swanner was instructed to inform the public. He claims to possess |
| proof, but it "cannot now be revealed." This was his third close |
| encounter with the aliens. (Sources: Ted Bloecher, MUFON Symposium |
| Proceedings 1975, p. 51 & 55; Stanley Ingram, Pulaski Citizen, |
| October 30, 1974; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of |
| Humanoid Reports, case 1974-05 (A1301), citing Stanley Ingram). |
| |
| 1978 - At around two o'clock at night residents of Saline, Michigan |
| saw a boomerang or triangular object hovering near their homes. Mr. & |
| Mrs. Sibson as well as an Air Force mechanic reported their sightings |
| to the Center for UFO Studies. According to them it made a slight |
| humming noise, and was the size of three 747's with a "great |
| intensity of light coming from the center fuselage area." It flew off |
| toward the west slowly. (Sources: CUFOS files, letter dated February |
| 17, 1978; Philip J. Imbrogno, Contact of the 5th Kind, p. 18). |
| |
| 1979 - Over 50 UFOs surrounded the butane freighter "Tamames" in the |
| Mediterranean Sea as it approached the Escombreras refinery in the |
| Baleares Islands. The ship's log reports that clouds appeared at 3:00 |
| a.m., and the ship's radar showed the presence of many huge aerial |
| objects. The presence of yellow lights in the clouds continued for |
| six hours. The radar of a second ship also reported the presence of |
| the UFOs, but not ground radar. (Source: Jane Thomas, UFO |
| Newsclipping Service, March 1979, p. 15, citing Pueblo, February 9, |
| 1979). |
| |
| 1979 - A dark, beehive-shaped UFO was encountered by a 53-year-old |
| man named Hathaway at 9:00 p.m. while he was driving near Liverpool |
| Creek, Queensland, Australia. The failure of his car's engine and |
| lights closely corresponded with a brilliant flash of light coming |
| from the object. It rose vertically when it left. The witness |
| experienced memory loss for some of the events surrounding his close |
| encounter. (Source: Keith Basterfield, MUFON UFO Journal, December |
| 1979). |
| |
| 1988 - In Oswestry, Shropshire, England a 45 foot in diameter yellow |
| cloud of something that looked like fog was seen straddling a |
| hedgerow around 8:00 a.m. It glowed brightly and made a noise like |
| rushing air. A dog ran into it and disappeared for a time. The two |
| adult witnesses, a man and a woman, reported feeling a tingling |
| sensation and smelling a sulphur smell. The dog was later found |
| unconscious, wet and hot; its eyes were red and it seemed close to |
| death. It died a few weeks later. (Source: Jenny Randles, Time |
| Storms: Amazing Evidence for Time Warps, Space Rifts, and Time |
| Travel, p. 11). |
| |
| 1993 - A young boy went outside at 7:25 p.m. in Colebrook, New |
| Hampshire and saw a domed disc-shaped object approaching from the |
| northeast. He went and got his stepfather, and both of them witnessed |
| two hovering discs. The discs appeared to be the size of a house, |
| about four feet apart, and only 50 feet in altitude. They seemed to |
| have a pink glow on the far sides. Their lights blinked, and then |
| both discs disappeared. (Sources: Sandra Black, MUFON Field |
| Investigation case files, case 930604J; MUFON UFO Journal, October |
| 1993). |
| |
| 1993 - On the same night Mr. C. Wagh was at the Bridge of Earn in |
| Central Scotland when he sighted six white lights in a straight line. |
| He viewed then through binoculars as they hovered for the next 15 |
| minutes. They seemed to be about 6 to 8 feet apart. They suddenly |
| went out. (Source: Ron Halliday, UFO Scotland: The Secret History of |
| Scotland's UFO Phenomenon, p. 159). |
| |
| 1995 - La Canada, Avila, Spain - A 28-year-old security guard was |
| fixing his guard dog's dinner at 9:55 p.m. The dog was tied to a |
| heavy tonnage truck, and he suddenly began barking furiously and |
| staring at the nearby railroad tracks. The man looked around but did |
| not find anything unusual, so he fed his dog and went back to the |
| guard shack. Fifteen seconds later the dog began barking again. When |
| he stepped outside he was confronted by a bizarre looking, shiny |
| white figure that floated quietly above the ground. The apparition |
| was about 1.5 meters in length and floated horizontally just above |
| the ground. At the same time the dog's food dish began to vibrate and |
| "jump around." The figure was wearing what looked like a flowing |
| tunic, and a conical hat concealed its facial features. It advanced |
| slowly towards the witness. The terrified man noticed the humanoid |
| had long hair, resembling that of a woman's, and it carried that |
| looked like a baton in one hand. The man fled from the area and |
| didn't return until he had found some additional witnesses. When they |
| returned to the site they found bizarre symbols that had been traced |
| on the ground with a sharp tool. One of the symbols resembled a |
| six-pointed star and others were "STN", "BEL" and the letter "U". |
| Superstitious locals attributed these symbols to be "demonic" in |
| nature. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1995, |
| citing Iker Jimenez, Encuentros: La Historia de los OVNI en Espana). |
| |
| 1998 - Driving into Sioux City, Iowa at 11:45 a.m. a 50-year-old |
| woman and her adult son saw a gray rectangular object and followed it |
| for about three quarters of a mile at 70 mph, until they lost sight |
| of it among some hills. (Source: Barbara Trout, MUFON case files, |
| case # 980401SC). |
| |
| 1999 - At 6:30 p.m. four police constables near a lake in Sheffield, |
| England saw an orange UFO with a triangular formation of red lights |
| surrounding it that appeared to revolve around the object. The |
| phenomenon was seen from two locations, and viewed through binoculars |
| for 30 minutes. (Source: Heseltine Gary, UFO Magazine (UK), July |
| 2003, p. 11, citing Andy Ellis). |
| |
| 1999 - At 11:45 p.m. a group of fishermen in Pisco, Peru watched |
| an anomalous light emerge from the ocean, bank sharply right, and |
| then head for the shore to the east. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer |
| database, case # 18079, citing Joseph Trainor, UFO Roundup, volume 4, |
| no. 8 (February 22, 1999)). |
| |
| 2000 - In Bristol, Vermont at 6:15 p.m. a large luminous triangular |
| cloud flew to the northeast, and split into four objects as it |
| approached the horizon. (Source: UFO Magazine (USA), May 2000, p. 17, |
| citing George Filer, Filers Files). |
| |
| 2001 - At around 8 p.m. two campers in Villa Frontera near Arica, |
| Chile spotted a UFO hovering over a group of 10 white-robed cultists, |
| who were holding hands and chanting. The UFO bathed the ground in a |
| powerful light. The next day cell phones in the area would not work, |
| and the witnesses complained of headaches, stomachaches, back pain, |
| and dizziness. (Sources: Australasian Ufologist, January 2001, p. 54, |
| citing Joseph Trainor, UFO Roundup, March 15, 2001). |
| |
| 2003 - At 2:10 a.m. three witnesses in Indian Mountain, New |
| Brunswick, Canada saw a smooth, round orange ball which moved through |
| the sky and descended slowly into the trees. The sighting lasted |
| seven minutes. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 2003 Canadian UFO Survey, case |
| # 49). |
| |
| 2004 - Bright amber lights flashing in a random sequence on what |
| appeared to be a disc-shaped object was seen over Lincoln City, |
| Oregon at 7 p.m. They later came to within what the witnesses said |
| was 30 feet of their house, and returned by flying back out over the |
| Pacific Ocean. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting |
| Center, Seattle, Feb. 2004 webpage). |
| |
| 2007 - At 5:30 p.m. a strange "fly-strip-looking" spiral-shaped |
| object was seen hovering and floating over houses along Lake Ontario |
| in Grimsby, Ontario, Canada. (Source: Chris Rutkowski, 2007 Canadian |
| UFO Survey, case # 52, citing NUFORC). |
