|
|
| 1949 – At 2:07 p.m. in Hickham Field, Honolulu, Hawaii Captain Paul |
|
|||
|
|
| Storey sighted a large, round, flat disc-shaped object that "blinked" |
|
|||
|
|
| and flew silently with a type of whitish reflection. The top of the |
|
|||
|
|
| craft looked dark. It flew at 3,000 feet altitude and circled the |
|
|||
|
|
| airfield, blinking once per second, finally flying away climbing into |
|
|||
|
|
| the northeast sky. The sighting is listed by the Air Force as an |
|
|||
|
|
| “unknown.” (Sources: US Air Force Project Blue Book files counted in |

|
|
| 1954 - Mr. Chesneau, a fireman at the Marignane Airport in France, |
|
|||

|
|||
|
|
| disappeared. (Source: Jimmy Guieu, Les SV Viennent d'un Autre Monde; |

|
| 1958 – A woodcutter in Stavanger, Norway saw a UFO land in a forest |
|
|||
|
|
| at 2:30 in the afternoon. A very tall man with a tan face got out. |
|
|||
|
|
| The being wore a helmet as part of his uniform. After a few minutes |
|
|||
|
|
| he got back in the craft, and it took off without making any noise. |
|
|||
|
|
| (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, A Century of Landings, |

|
|
| 1959 – At 1:30 a.m. five people saw a luminous globe make sharp |
|
|||

| Mexico. It then hovered over a highway intersection for fifteen |
|
|||
|
|
| minutes. (Source: Project Blue Book files counted in official |

|||
|
|
| 1963 – A domed disc with tripod landing gear landed in a park in |
|
|||
|
|
| Rome, Italy. It was estimated to be five meters in diameter. The man |
|
|||
|
|
| who witnessed the landing said he felt a gust of wind as the UFO took |
|
|||
|
|
| off vertically and vanished into the sky. (Sources: Jacques Vallee, |

|
|||
|
|
| Argentina had a close encounter on this night with a luminous green |
|
|||
|
|
| object surrounded by haze. The EM effects on truck caused the engine |
|
|||
|
|
| to slow and flip over. No serious injuries were reported. (Sources: |

|
| 1973 - In Londrina, Parana State, Brazil Joao Marques, age 31, |
|
|||
|
|
| observed a UFO hovering over the road near his home at 2:30 a.m. A |
|
|||
|
|
| door in the craft opened, and a human-like figure in white descended |
|
|||
|
|
| on a rope to the ground. The being then picked up a bit of grass and |
|
|||
|
|
| put it to his nose or mouth, then discarded it. He next picked up a |
|
|||
|
|
| hydrangea plant, which he took with him. He ascended the rope and |
|
|||
|
|
| entered the craft, and the UFO left. The height and other features of |
|
|||
|
|
| the being were not given. (Sources: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |

|
|
| 1974 – Two woman driving in a car in the suburbs of Chicago followed |
|
|||
|
|
| a low flying UFO in Berwyn, Illinois at around 5:15 p.m. The object |
|
|||
|
|
| had two bright lights and a red tower-shaped structure. It flew at an |
|
|||
|
|
| estimated 75 feet above the ground, then hovered over a high school |
|
|||
|
|
| athletic field. It turned off its lights when it flew away. At |
|
|||
|
|
| shortly after 7:00 p.m. a UFO hovered over Legler Lake, Minnesota. At |
|
|||
|
|
| eight p.m. in rural Lake county Minnesota police officers Haugan and |
|
|||
|
|
| Dufresne of the Waldo Township Police saw four “unbelievably bright” |
|
|||
|
|
| lights, the color and hue of a burning log, from their patrol car. |
|
|||
|
|
| The lights flew to the west, then banked and flew off toward the |
|
|||
|
|
| southwest at an estimated 800 feet altitude. Their sighting lasted 30 |
|
|||
|
|
| seconds. (Sources: MUFON Field Investigation files, report dated |

|
| 1977 - At 12:30 a.m. man was training his German shepherd dog in a |
|
|||
|
|
| pine grove in Carapito Beira Alta, Portugal when the animal suddenly |
|
|||
|
|
| became agitated and sat next to him. He then saw hovering 10 meters |
|
|||
|
|
| from the ground a dark metallic domed object that was emitting a |
|
|||
|
|
| beeping sound. Near the object was a very tall, heavy set figure, |
|
|||
|
|
| human like. The object suddenly emitted a silvery lighting flash and |
|
|||
|
|
| disappeared, and so did the bulky figure. The witness suffered from |
|
|||
|
|
| severe headaches soon after the incident, and his dog died with no |
|
|||
|
|
| obvious cause of death in August of the same year. (Source: Albert S. |

|
|
| |
|
|||
|
|
| 1978 - The witness was lying in his bed in Wrose, England on this |
|
|||
|
|
| night when a short silvery transparent figure suddenly appeared |
|
|||
|
|
| hovering above the bed. It seemed human like and was wearing a monk |
|
|||
|
|
| like robe. It also appeared to have some short wing like protrusions |
|
|||
|
|
| and a bright halo type light around its head. It vanished in plain |
|
|||
|
|
| sight. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1978, |

|||
|
|
| case 1790, citing Nigel Watson, Portraits of Alien Encounters). |

|
|
| 1979 – A group of four farmers saw a small glittering sphere float |
|
|||
|
|
| about in the sky over Jitra, Malaysia at 6:45 a.m. (Source: Ahmad |
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
| in Malaysia, p. 86). |
|
|||
|
|
| |
|
|||
|
|
| 1979 – That same morning at around seven a.m. in Rowley Regis in the |
|
|||
|
|
| West Midlands, England, Mrs. Jean Hingley had waved goodbye to her |
|
|||
|
|
| husband on a bitter cold morning when she saw a light in the garden. |
|
|||
|
|
| Thinking he had left the light on she went to investigate, but it was |
|
|||
|
|
| turned off so she returned to the kitchen. She put down some food for |
|
|||
|
|
| the family Alsatian dog and called him from the garden, but he |
|
|||
|
|
| flopped down as if drugged and gazed at the ceiling, glassy-eyed. |
|
|||
|
|
| Then, with a "zee---zee-zee" noise, three weird creatures flew past |
|
|||
|
|
| her into her lounge. They were only one meter tall and had waxy white |
|
|||
|
|
| faces, coal-black eyes with no eyebrows, and very thin mouths. They |
|
|||
|
|
| wore silvery clothes with transparent fishbowl-type helmets over |
|
|||
|
|
| their heads. These humanoids also had transparent “wings” or wing |
|
|||
|
|
| attachments. Jean clung to her sink paralyzed but then, she says, she |
|
|||
|
|
| also suddenly floated towards the lounge. |
|
|||
|
|
| |
|
|||
|
|
| Jean noticed that the aliens were inspecting the ornaments on the |
|
|||
|
|
| Christmas tree with interest. They also probed into her mind with |
|
|||
|
|
| telepathy—“It was like a light or an X-ray penetrating.” They told |
|
|||
|
|
| her she would not be harmed and, when she asked where they were from, |
|
|||
|
|
| one said, “We come from the sky.” When she explained the house was |
|
|||
|
|
| decorated to celebrate Jesus’s birthday, they claimed “We know all |
|
|||
|
|
| about Jesus.” |
|
|||
|
|
| |
|
|||
|
|
| They said they would return. “We come down here to talk to people but |
|
|||
|
|
| they don't seem to be interested.” Finally, when she showed them how |
|
|||
|
|
| to light a cigarette they fled as if in terror, taking a mince pie |
|
|||
|
|
| each with them. Outside in her garden was an egg-shaped object with |
|
|||
|
|
| windows. They floated into it, and it took off, emitting a bluish |
|
|||
|
|
| flash and pulsating twice before disappearing with a flash. The dog |
|
|||
|
|
| returned to normal, and Jean called the police. The electric clock in |
|
|||
|
|
| the house had stopped, and all her cassette tapes were magnetized and |
|
|||
|
|
| unplayable. In the snow where the object had sat was an oval outline, |
|
|||
|
|
| which the local UFO group was able to photograph before the snow |
|
|||
|
|
| melted. She also suffered from a case of conjunctivitis as a result |
|
|||
|
|
| of her close encounter. (Sources: Alfred Budden, Fortean Times, June |

|
|||
|
|
| |
|
|||
|
|
| 1988 – Two 35 centimeter red spheres maneuvered low over a field in |
|
|||
|
|
| Vetterslev, Denmark starting at 6: 45 p.m. and continuing for two |
|
|||
|
|
| hours. Melted snow and small footprints were later found in the |
|
|||
|
|
| field. During that same time there were at least eight UFO sightings |
|
|||
|
|
| reported throughout parts of Yorkshire, England. At 8:10 p.m. a |
|
|||
|
|
| torpedo-shaped object, resembling a World War II V-1 German |
|
|||
|
|
| “buzz-bomb,” flew over the city of York. It reportedly emitted smoke, |
|
|||
|
|
| flame, and debris, and was followed through the sky by a brilliant |
|
|||
|
|
| ball of light. At 8:45 p.m. a thin, pencil-shaped UFO with red and |
|
|||
|
|
| blue running lights was sighted in Selby. At 9:10 p.m. a ex-RAF man |
|
|||
|
|
| saw flashing lights around a 400-foot diameter, layered disc that |
|
|||
|
|
| glowed orange in Leeds. In Dewsbury at 11:30 p.m. a disc flew back |
|
|||
|
|
| and forth in the sky, making a swishing sound. It either extinguished |
|
|||
|
|
| its lights, or vanished, because its disappearance seemed to be |
|
|||
|
|
| instantaneous. (Sources: Scandinavian UFO Information Newsletter, |
|

|
|
| 1990 – Several people in Mauriac, France at 12:40 p.m. witnessed a |
|
|||
|
|
| black disc-shaped UFO with two rows of square windows. It had four |
|
|||
|
|
| legs and a tube in the front, and moved through the sky slowly and |
|
|||
|
|
| silently. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue #300) |

|||
|
|
| 1992 - A farmer in Saga Prefecture, Japan, who had been experiencing |
|
|||
|
|
| cattle mutilations heard his dog barking at night and went out to his |
|
|||
|
|
| barn to check. He saw a small white object floating in his barn, like |
|
|||
|
|
| a jellyfish with things like tentacles hanging from the bottom. It |
|
|||
|
|
| drifted outside and vanished. When he investigated further he found |
|
|||
|
|
| he had a cow with a broken leg. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |

|
|
| 1994 - At five minutes after midnight in Tronville-en-Barrois, France |
|
|||
|
|
| a domed disc-shaped object landed or came very close to landing in a |
|
|||
|
|
| field, illuminating the entire area. Three figures are seen inside a |
|
|||
|
|
| doorway, one of them exited from the door of the craft. (Source: |

|
|||
|
|
| Isuzu Trooper in Campo Rico, Puerto Rico with the windows rolled |
|
|||
|
|
| down. They were driving on Route 185 near a horse track called El |
|
|||
|
|
| Comandante at seven p.m. when she smelled something pungent, like |
|
|||
|
|
| sulfur, which irritated her throat. She kept driving and suddenly saw |
|
|||
|
|
| a creature with glowing red eyes. It ran across the road in front of |
|
|||
|
|
| her SUV and disappeared. Frightened, she returned home to tell her |
|
|||
|
|
| husband. He went back to the area and noticed the pungent odor but |
|
|||
|
|
| did not see the creature. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |

|||
|
|
| 2003 - At 2:40 a.m. PST three large, white circular UFOs hovered in |
|
|||
|
|
| the sky over Rosswood, British Columbia. In San Isidro, Texas at 5:15 |
|
|||
|
|
| a.m. twelve oval-shaped objects moved around in the sky for over one |
|
|||
|
|
| hour. Eleven or more bright objects moved across the sky in formation |
|
|||
|
|
| in clear daylight in Chula Vista, California at 2:30 in the |
|
|||
|
|
| afternoon. That evening at 9:41 p.m., in Bayport, New York, two |
|
|||
|
|
| glowing objects chased each other, swirled around, and danced in the |
|
|||
|
|
| night sky. (Source: Peter Davenport, UFO Reporting Center, January |

| 2003 - In Fulton, Missouri Bob Simon, age 25, awoke at three a.m. |
|
|||
|
|
| while he was being dragged towards the bedroom window by an unknown |
|
|||
|
|
| intruder. He looked up to see a very tall thin humanoid with red |
|
|||
|
|
| eyes, no mouth, and a gray body. It had huge hands with very long |
|
|||
|
|
| fingers. Recovering his senses, Simon struggled with the alien and |
|
|||
|
|
| managed to grab a small knife next to his bed and stab at the alien. |
|
|||
|
|
| The alien seemed to have been hurt, and relaxed his grip on Simon. |
|
|||
|
|
| There was a sudden blast of bright light and the creature vanished. |
|
|||
|
|
| Simon claimed to have scratch marks on his body. (Source: Albert S. |

|
|
| 2004 - At 8:30 p.m. an Aer Lingus Boeing 737-400 with 135 people on |
|
|||
|
|
| board was damaged by near a miss with a UFO while flying 15 nautical |
|
|||
|
|
| miles offshore of Ashbourne, Ireland. The UFO caused a power drain |
|
|||
|
|
| and a purple glow around the 737 as the triangular UFO flew in front |
|
|||
|
|
| of the airliner. It also caused a huge turbulence in its wake. A |
|
|||
|
|
| second aircraft encounter occurred on the same night at 10:30 p.m. |
|
|||
|
|
| when a A330-200 with 213 people on board encountered a flashing |
|
|||
|
|
| strobe light over Slane, Ireland. The airliner encountered |
|
|||
|
|
| a triangular UFO with an estimated 360 foot wing span. The UFO |
|
|||
|
|
| circled the plane aggresively. The second encounter lasted several |
|
|||
|
|
| minutes. Both encounters were tracked on airborne radar. (Source: |

|
|
| 2004 - A white egg-shaped object was seen floating in the sky at |
|
|||
|
|
| 10:00 a.m. PST in Hayward, California. It was five feet in diameter |
|
|||
|
|
| at the thiner dimension. The two witnesses then saw two more objects |
|
|||
|
|
| about three-fourths the size of the first, also egg shaped, gray in |
|
|||
|
|
| color, but not metallic. A white object changed shape slightly into |
|
|||
|
|
| a smooth diamond 200 feet up. The sightings lasted five minutes. |
