| side of the road 15 meters away. He saw some short, dark shapes, |
| “like potato bags” moving about the object. He sped up, then saw the |
| object, which was the size of a small bus, take off. During the |
| ascent the object's color changed from orange to blue. The object was |
| observed by two other witnesses. As an additional note, Mr. |
| Delattre fainted while telling his story (Sources: David F. Webb & |

| and 2.5 meters high, hovering for several minutes one meter above the |
| ground. The UFO then rose vertically. Oily marks were found at the |
| spot. (Note: Vallee lists the |
| date as October 3rd, but Figuet & Ruchon believe this is in error and |
| that October 2nd is the correct date). (Sources: Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight Line |
| Mystery, p. 131; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 216; Michel |

| lens-shaped disc of brightly polished aluminum over the Utah Central |
| Airport in Salt Lake City, Utah at noon. It was seen against the |
| mountains as a backdrop, and had an estimated diameter of 50-60 feet. |
| It moved out of sight in seconds, covering a distance of 70 degrees, |
| with a speed "beyond any known jet.." (Sources: Robert Gribble, MUFON |
| UFO Journal, October 1991, p. 22; UNICAT, case # 531, citing James E. |

| |
| 1966 - Mrs. Everett Steward, a flight attendant, was talking on the |
| telephone from her home in Cincinnati, Ohio at 10:20 p.m. when she |
| smelled a foul odor in the room. She went to her bedroom, where she |
| had a feeling of being watched. Looking out the window, she saw an |
| oval-shaped object with portholes and red, green, and white lights |
| revolving around it. It was 75 feet in diameter and 100 feet above |
| the ground. She woke her husband, who also saw it, and called her |
| married daughter, Mrs. Janet Emery, a mile away. The Emerys also saw |
| it, and a neighbor with binoculars could see that it had illuminated |
| yellow square windows. Next, her daughter Janet went outdoors and saw |
| the UFO eject a red ball, which maneuvered about while the first UFO |
| took off southward. The red ball flew 100 feet over Jane's head. It |
| too was oval shaped, and its underside was shiny like aluminum foil. |
| It was "bigger than my cottage and yard combined." She also smelled |
| the garbage like odor. Mrs. Steward went to bed, but the odor still |
| persisted in the house. Sometime later that night the room was |
| filled with a brilliant white light, which then vanished, and a globe |
| of light about 21 inches in diameter appeared at the foot of her bed. |
| Inside the globe were the images of five "non-human, hairless heads" |
| with oval, sunken eyes. "Instead of noses, there were slits, and they |
| had no mouths." Telepathically, they repeated several times that "we |
| have made contact." Mrs Steward screamed, and the globe disappeared. |
| She was so upset by the experience that she began psychiatric |
| counseling and continued it for the next two years. (Sources: Leonard |
| H. Stringfield, Situation Red: The UFO Siege, pp. 35-36 & 51-52; |
| David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, |
| case # 1966-41, citing Leonard H. Stringfield). |

| 1967 - At 7:30 p.m. in Melville, New York P. E. Burkhardt, an |
| aerospace computer systems engineer, and several teenagers witnessed |
| a silver disc-shaped object with a set of rectangular-shaped lights |
| that blinked on-and-off, revolving across the lower portion. |

| 1968 - In Lins, Sao Paolo State, Brazil at 6:20 a.m., while oiling |
| his bulldozer’s engine, Sr. Doribio Pereira saw a golden colored |
| cigar-shaped craft hovering a foot or so above the ground, only a few |
| feet away,  Next he saw a man standing on a platform that extended |
| from the base of the object, who drew a weapon resembling an electric |
| drill from his sleeve. The being pointed it at the witness, and when |
| it emitted a bright flash Pereira found himself paralyzed. He could |
| see that inside the cigar, which had a “glass roof,” there was a man |
| using some sort of keyboard with both hands, and outside the craft on |
| an extended platform stood three more men. One of them was taking |
| soil samples with a “conch shaped object.” Then the craft flashed a |
| very vivid light three times, the platform retracted, and underneath |
| the craft appeared “something like an electric polisher, rotating at |
| high speed.” After that it took off with a slight sound. The men were |
| described as thin, about 5’5” tall, and dressed in blue knee-length |
| robes, hoods, and brown sandals with cross garters to the knees. |
| Pereira, in a state of near shock, was given a lift to his home, and |
| from there he reported to the Town Council. Because of his nervous |
| state he was sent for a medical examination, during which Dr. Antonio |
| Geris found him entirely normal. Officials of the Brazilian Air Force |
| later subjected him to an intense interrogation. (Sources: Gordon |
| Creighton, FSR, January-February 1969, p. 22; David F. Webb & Ted |
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case # 1968-70, |

| |
| 1971 - Mr. Wazny, age 29, a retired U.S. Air Force airman sighted a |
| huge, silent triangular craft with many lights southwest of Caro, |
| Michigan at 6:20 p.m. It made sharp turns at a fantastic speed. |
| (Source: NICAP UFO Investigator, December 1971, p. 3). |
| |
| 1975 - On this night in Fort Lee, New Jersey a single witness said an |
| oval-shaped object with red and green lights that came close to |
| witness after appearing at first as a bright light. It circled behind |
| some trees, then passed the witness making a faint whirling sound. |
| (Source: CUFOS News Bulletin, February 1976, p. 7). |
| |
| 1977 - At 11:00 p.m. a four-meter in diameter domed disc buzzed an |
| amateur astronomer outside with a telescope in Auchey, Pas-de-Calais, |
|  France passing only four meters overhead. (Source: Lumieres dans la |
| Nuit, issue # 309). |
| |
| 1978 - At 11:15 a.m. four young boys in the Groendal Nature Reserve, |
| Uitenhage, Eastern Cape Province, South Africa had been out hiking in |
| an isolated area, and were now waiting to be picked up by their |
| parents, when suddenly their attention was drawn to a glistening |
| object in the distance. They next saw two men wearing shiny silvery |
| outfits, standing just to the west of the object. The men were |
| able to move across the difficult terrain in a gliding motion, and on |
| on top of the hill they were joined by a third man that appeared to |
| be carrying a small suitcase. The three men then glided towards a |
| dividing fence and flew over it, and one stopped to look at the boys. |
| The silver suit covered his forehead, so only his lower face was |
| clear, but they could see he had gray skin. Finally, the men glided |
| up a hill and seemed to disappear upon reaching the summit. During |
| the incident the boys noticed a strange silence in the area and two |
| of them felt disoriented. Possible ground traces were found on the |
| site. (Sources: Cynthia Hind, MUFON UFO Journal, October 1978, p. 5; |

| 1981 - Helmstedt, Germany - At around 2:10 a.m. the witness was |
| riding a bus through East Germany to Mittaguzeit in the East Berlin |
| sector when he noticed two tall figures walking on the side of the |
| road. They were oddly dressed, wearing silvery coveralls. They were |
| also walking in a peculiar fashion, and he had never seen similar |
| people before in the area. The bus continued on and he lost sight of |
| them. The next day there were reports of bright lights over the area. |
| (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1981, case # |
| 183, citing Ulrich Magin). |

| saw an arrowhead or pentagon-shaped object with many multicolored |
| lights while riding in their van onHighway 13, 18 miles north of |
| Springfield,  Missouri. The object glided over nearby trees, and then |
| hovered near their van. Its lights were white, yellow, and red, and |
| it gave off white beams of light.  It finally moved away silently |
| after 30 seconds. Three hours later ten people in a bus in Brighton, |
| Missouri watched a silent manta ray-shaped object hovering nearby. It |
| too had many lights, and tilted at an angle. Their sighting lasted |
| two minutes.  (Source: (1) Boone County (AR) Headlight, October 7, |
| 1982; (2) Erwin Polakoff, International UFO Reporter, January 1983, |
| p. 12). |
| |

| "orange or yellow arrow-shaped" object moving slowly through the sky |
| to the west. It had a light on each side. (Source: Jay Rath, The |
| I-Files: True Reports of Unexplained Phenomena in Illinois, p. 51, |
| citing NUFORC). |
| |
| 1998 - Ms. J. Juanin watched a round, bright orange flashing |
| light with small black dotted things on it in Beluran, Sabah, |
| Malaysia that seemed to land two kilometers away. She watched it for |
| five minutes until its lights turned off. The sky was dark with no |
| moon. (Sources: George Filer, Filer's Files, 1998, issue 40; Joseph |
| Trainor, UFO Roundup, Volume 3, No. 41) |
| |
| 2000 - Mr. and Mrs. Osborne sighted a dark gray cloud-like object, |
| darker than the background clouds and not moving with the wind, over |
| Crick, Northampton, England at 1:00 p.m. The object changed shape, |
| making angular angles, and was watched through binoculars. (Source: |
| UFO Magazine (UK), January 2001, p. 58). |
| |
| 2001 - At 6:55 a.m. several motorists in Sandyville, West Virginia |
| spotted a blimp-like UFO with a smooth surface that was glowing |
| bright red in the overcast daytime sky. A chevron-shaped object |
| exited from a door in the bottom. There was no sound during the |
| entire incident, which lasted five minutes. The two objects vanished |
| at the same time. (Source: UFO Magazine (USA), February 2002, p. 21). |
| |

| October 2004 webpage). |
| |
| 2004 - A man was driving home at 5:30 a.m. in rural Tennessee when he |
| noticed what first appeared to be a fire on a nearby ridge. As he |
| drove he got closer and realized that it was not a fire at all but a |
| series of three reddish-orange lights affixed to the bottom of a huge |
| triangular craft. He neared an intersection and got out of his car to |
| watch this metallic craft as it approached from the north and moved |
| directly towards him. He became fearful and started to run from his |
| car, but realized that there was nowhere to run. As the giant object |
| passed overhead, it blocked out all the stars and he estimated its |
| size to be some 300 feet in length. The bottom of the craft |
| was illuminated from three flame-like symmetrical appendages, and |
| there was a ribbed structure running across the bottom of the object. |
| As it passed directly overhead he felt an energy that reverberated |
| through his body. He stated that he felt many sensations all at once, |
| but could find no description for what he actually felt. The object |
| also made a pulsating or drumming noise which also passed throughout |
| his body. After the object passed him, it suddenly turned west and |
| moved behind some nearby hills. The witness reported a metallic taste |
| in his mouth and a nose bleed. Later he found that his face and back |
| were slightly sunburned and his hair was falling out, he also felt |
| lethargic. He realized later that he had experienced 15 minutes of |
| missing time. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
| 2004, citing Kim Shaffer, Tennessee MUFON). |
| |
| 2005 - Three bright lights appeared at different times in Westfield, |
| Massachusetts starting at 3:00 a.m. They moved in zig-zag patterns in |
| the sky over a long period of time. (Source: Peter Davenport, |
| National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, October 2005 webpage, |
| reported uploaded October 11, 2005). |
