|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  August 26 |
| |
| 1893 - In Leslie, Kentucky thirty minutes after sunrise the sun took |
| on a "peculiar color" and the sky became filled with thousands of |
| discs, the size of wagon wheels, in motion. They would change shape |
| into triangles, squares, and odd forms. They were various colors, |
| including red, green, black, and red. (Source: Jerome Clark, |
| International UFO Reporter, April 2003, p. 19, citing the Arizona |
| Republic, August 27, 1893). |
| |
| 1947 - At 12:30 a.m. ten kilometers southwest of Fkenberg, Sweden the |
| pilot and co-pilot of a DC-3 Swedish postal plane saw a UFO that |
| looked like a green parallelogram. They watched it for 8-10 seconds. |

| Project 1947: A Preliminary Report on the 1947 UFO Sighting Wave, p. |
| 144). |
| |
| 1947 - Late in the day two private pilots flying over Mexico, |
| Missouri sighted three gray discs flying rapidly toward the |
| northwest. They tried to chase them in their plane, but were quickly |
| outdistanced. (Sources: Jan Aldrich, Project 1947: A Preliminary |
| Report on the 1947 UFO Sighting Wave, citing the Mexico Weekly |
| Ledger, August 28, 1947; Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 1256, |
| citing Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1947 (Volume 6), p. 31.) |
| |
| 1951 - The driver of a transcontinental train in Australia, on the |
| east/west line, saw a flying object at four o'clock in the morning |
| that illuminated the countryside like a full moon. It flew very fast, |
| came close to the train, appeared ready to land in the desert, then |
| took off and disappeared. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to |
| Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 196). |
| |
| 1951 - At Ellington AFB, Texas a radar operator made a visual |
| sighting of a nocturnal light at 1:18 a.m. The UFO zig-zagged many |
| times, then shot up to a very high altitude, blinking at two second |
| intervals. (Source: Project Grudge Report #1, November 30, 1951). |
| |
| 1952 - At 12:10 a.m. USAF Captain D.A. Woods sighted a large, round, |
| very bright object with a V-shaped contrail in Lathrop Wells, Nevada. |
| It had a dark cone in the center. The object flew very fast, stopped |
| and hovered, made an instantaneous 90-degree turn, and began a gentle |
| climb followed by a final sudden acceleration. (Sources: Project Blue |
| Book files counted in official statistics, case 1986; Don Berliner, |
| Project Bluebook UFO Unknowns; Kevin D. Randle, Invasion Washington: |
| UFOs over the Capitol, p. 280). |
| |
| 1952 - At Watkins Glen, New York a "flying saucer" dove into a lake, |
| splashing water eight to ten feet high. (Source: Ivan T. Sanderson, |
| Invisible Residents, p. 226, citing Buffalo Evening News, August 26, |
| 1952). |
| |
| 1954 - Rev. W. L. Shelton saw two domed ellipses in Danville, |
| Virginia at 6:15 a.m. They were 20-feet wide, 8-feet thick, and |
| glowed silver and orange. The orange glow extended about ten feet. |
| They hovered at first, then climbed vertically at a terrific speed |
| side-by-side while getting brighter. He observed them for two |
| minutes. (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official |
| statistics, case 3182; Don Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO Unknowns; |
| Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1954: June-August, p. 93). |
| |
| 1955 - On this day many witnesses in Guarenas, Venezuela saw a silver |
| orb zipping back-and-forth and hovering over the town, making a |
| humming sound. The witnesses reported feeling a tickling sensation. |
| (Source: Morris K. Jessup, The UFO Annual, p. 355). |
| |
| 1955 - There were three reports of unusual humanoids in Ohio on this |
| date, two from Hamilton County and one from Franklin County. A child |
| with the last name Perry, in Camp Washington, Ohio was reported in |
| hysterics after seeing a "green man" at the window in the evening. |
| Several people in Mount Air, Ohio saw a dwarf creature that night. A |
| man from Cheviot, Ohio called Donna Meiers to tell her that he had |
| experienced a similar incident involving a "little man" about the |
| same time as the Winton Woods encounter. (Sources: David F. Webb & |
| Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, cases A0383, |
| A0385, A0386; Cincinnati Times-Star, August 27, 1955; Leonard H. |
| Stringfield, Inside Saucer Post...3-0 Blue, p. 63). |
| |
| 1957 - At 10:00 p.m. an ovoid object was seen flying in the |
| southwestern sky in Monroe County, Pennsylvania over the Poconos |
| Mountains. It was emitting green beams of light. (Source: Loren E. |
| Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1957: |
| August-September, p. 53). |
| |
| 1964 - At 9:20 p.m. a red ellipsoid pulsated as it flew over Melrose, |
| Massachusetts. It had an orange-red halo, as seen through a |
| telescope. It made no sound. (Source: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs: |
| Interplanetary Visitors, p. 330). |
| |
| Melrose, Massachusetts - 1964 |
| |
| [Sketch of Melrose, Massachusetts 1964 sighting] |
| |
| 1965 - At 1:30 a.m. Hector Crespo, a highway engineer, his son |
| Urgenio, and Francisco Lopez were approaching Zhulleng, 11 miles from |
| Cuenca, Ecuador when they saw two beams of bright light shining up |
| into the sky. On going to investigate what they believed was a car |
| wreck; they found a circular object 20 feet in diameter, with a |
| transparent dome on top. A bright amber light kept flashing around |
| the edge, and flickering red and blue beams were shining downwards. |
| The three men approached to within 60 feet of the UFO, and could see |
| through an open doorway instruments and lights inside it. Three |
| human-like figures were seen outside the object, one apparently |
| adjusting the light beam projector, and the other two handing him |
| tools. They all moved very slowly, “as if under water.” They were |
| dressed in metallic-looking, silvery white, close-fitting coveralls, |
| with wide white belts, dark epaulets, and shiny helmets. At one point |
| two of the “men” turned and looked directly at the spot where the |
| witnesses were watching from, as though knowing the operation was |
| being observed, but simply returned to the repairs. The object stood |
| on telescopic legs with curved dish-like footpads, although they were |
| uncertain as to whether there were three or four legs. Crespo’s son |
| became so frightened that he became nauseated, so they went back to |
| their car. After awhile they saw the object take off, and the light |
| moving around the edge was now a brilliant red and the vertical white |
| beams had been extinguished. Just before it “took off like lighting,” |
| it became too bright to look at. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted |
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case # 1965-43 |
| (A0657), citing Wendelle C. Stevens, Saga UFO Report, Spring 1975). |
| |
| 1966 - In Gaylesville, Alabama at 8:50 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. Funk and |
| their three children witnessed a cluster of four small, glowing, |
| orange-yellow lights in a triangular formation, moved from east to |
| west for 4.5 minutes. (Source: Don Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO |
| Unknowns). |
| |
| 1967 - At 2:00 a.m. Marine Private Esteban D. Cova was just leaving |
| the hangar at Maquetia Airport, Venezuela when he was accosted by a |
| little man about three feet tall who was covered with wiry hair. The |
| little man had a very large head, bulging eyes, and made a deep |
| whistling sound that gave the witness a prickling sensation |
| throughout his body. The little man then spoke in Spanish, asking |
| Cova, "Won't you come with us? We need one more." Cova passed out. |

| Reports, case 1967-85, citing APRO Bulletin, September-October 1967; |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # |
| 873, citing Coral & Jim Lorenzen, UFOs over the Americas, p. 79). |
| 1967 - Driving on the highway to Maturin, Venezuela on this morning |
| Mr. Saki Macharechi saw what appeared to be a large bird flying |
| overhead. When it landed near a bridge he took it to be a heron, but |
| when he got closer he saw that it was a small human-like figure. He |
| passed within ten feet of the creature. Frightened, he stepped on the |
| gas and drove away. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |
| Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1967-84, citing APRO Bulletin, |
| September-October 1967; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A |
| Century of Landings, case # 873, citing Coral & Jim Lorenzen, UFOs |
| over the Americas, p. 78). |
| |
| 1968 - Needham, Alabama. A bright ovoid object with three luminous |
| bands was encountered on the road at 12:30 a.m. A scraped, burned |
| area was found later at the landing point. (Source: Richard H. Hall, |
| The UFO Evidence, Volume II. A Thirty Year Report, p. 264, citing |
| NICAP files). |
| |
| 1968 - Awakened by a flapping noise outside, hospital receptionist |
| Maria Cintra in Lins, Sao Paulo State, Brazil opened the door to find |
| a “foreign looking woman” wearing white light colored, shiny clothes, |
| and a tight fitting hood, and holding an engraved glass bottle and a |
| mug. Mrs. Cintra filled these for her from the drinking fountain. |
| While she did so, the woman placed her hand on the witness shoulder |
| and repeated several times the word “Rempaua.” Then the woman went |
| out and entered a luminous, pear-shaped UFO craft, shaped with a flat |
| bottom that was hovering 3 feet above the hospital’s lawn. Another |
| person also saw the craft. It took off and climbed slowly in a |
| spiral, with a repetition of the flapping sound. (Sources: APRO |
| Bulletin, July-August 1968, p. 6; Coral & Jim Lorenzen, UFOs: The |
| Whole Story, p. 291; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue |
| of Humanoid Reports, case # 1968-60, citing Dr. Max Berezowski for |
| APRO). |
| |
| 1968 - Two discs were spotted atop each other on a mountain peak in |
| Gleeson, Arizona at 7:50 p.m. There were scorched plants and burned |
| grass found at the site. (Sources: Gordon I. R. Lore, Jr., Strange |
| Effects from UFOs, p. 55; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume |
| II. A Thirty Year Report, p. 264, citing NICAP files). |
| |
| 1972 - A man was driving down the highway in Rural, Illinois on this |
| night when a bright light in the sky caught his attention. He |
| followed it to where he saw a disc-shaped craft descend and hover |
| close to the ground. A door opened in the craft, and an angled |
| plank slid down from it from the doorway to the ground. Several slim |
| humanoid figures wearing coveralls began to exit the craft. The |
| witness crept up to it and suddenly the outer rim slid aside, |
| following the curve of the craft, exposing transparent cylinders, |
| which looked to be incubators with infants inside them. As the |
| witness stared at them in disbelief, one of them opened its eyes and |
| smiled at him, and he smiled back, then a look of distress came upon |
| its face as if it appeared to be having trouble breathing. The man |
| proceeded to pound on the glass, trying to break it open, and then |
| picked up a rock intending to smash it open, but he abruptly |
| felt himself being lifted up, from his two sides, away from the |
| craft. He believes that the aliens knew he had been trying to help, |
| and were glad that the noise he created alerted them to the apparent |
| problem with the incubated hybrid. His memory ends at this point with |
| an ensuing period of missing time. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, |
| Humanoid Sighting Reports database, citing UFO Watch). |
| |
| 1974 - In Feignies, Nord Department, France at 9:00 p.m. Mr. & Mrs. |
| Moret watched a round black orb, outlined by a faint white luminous |
| corona, split in two. The sphere was about 200 meters away and it |
| slowly descended to hover 20 meters above the ground before it split |
| vertically into two "half moons", one of which flew off to the |
| south-southeast and was lost from sight. The other half remained in |
| place, and figures in helmets were seen moving about inside. A sort |
| of veil was drawn across it, and two "cosmonauts" clad from head to |
| foot in a whitish-gray metallic material, and wearing large helmets, |
| were then seen moving in it. The witnesses watched them for 40 |
| minutes, during which time the UFO remained stationary. The diameter |
| of the original ball was about 25 feet, and the UFOnauts' were |
| estimated to be five-feet tall. (Sources: Lumieres dans la Nuit, |
| January 1976 (issue 151), pp. 10-11; Jean Marie Bigorne, FSR, May |
| 1976, p. 25; Michel Figuet & Jean-Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le premier |
| dossier complet des rencontres rapprochees en France, p. 511; David |
| F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case |
| 1974-36(A1351)). |
| |
| 1975 - At 2:20 a.m. two witnesses in a truck on a highway in |
| Sidi Embarek, Algeria watched a two-meter wide disc-shaped |
| object illuminate the area for miles around. It flew at only 25 |
| meters altitude at a speed of 200 kph, and made sudden stops. |
| (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 11389, citing |
| Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue 316). |
| |
| 1975 - near Buffalo, North Dakota - Sandra Larson, age 32, and her |
| daughter Jackie, age 15, were being driven from Fargo to Bismarck, |
| North Dakota by Jackie's boyfriend when they heard a loud rumbling, |
| thunder-like noise around 4:00 a.m. and saw eight glowing orange |
| spheres descend from the sky. The objects stopped in mid-air, and |
| three of the objects shot back upwards. Sandy had a peculiar feeling |
| as though the car was motionless, and at the same time Jackie |
| suddenly found herself in the back seat with no memory of how she got |
| there. When they got to a gas station they discovered that an hour of |
| time was unaccounted for. Later, under hypnosis, Sandra recalled |
| having been "floated" from the car into a UFO, where a six-foot tall |
| being (1.8 m) with a mummy-like head bandaged up in tape, with the |
| eyes remaining visible, had performed some sort of surgical operation |
| on her on a medical table. She had the sensation that even her brain |
| had been briefly removed. This being had a luminosity around its head |
| and shoulders, and it had long metallic-appearing, mechanical arms. |
| Its body was like "brown vinyl." No communication with the being was |
| recalled. (Sources: Jerome Clark, Saga UFO Report, August 1976, |
| p. 21; Skylook, March 1976, p. 10; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1975-28, citing Jerome |
| Clark and Dr. R. Leo Sprinkle). |
| |
| 1976 - Enrique Mercado Orue of Cerro De La Estrella, Mexico City, |
| Mexico was taken onboard a UFO after being instructed to go to an |
| isolated area. He described everything he saw onboard the craft as |
| very quaint and simple, not at all sophisticated looking. He also saw |
| what appeared to be a star-map on a wall. Inside the craft he met |
| human-like occupants of different statures. Some were over two meters |
| tall, but others were much shorter than that. The women were |
| generally shorter than the men; they were described as beautiful and |
| well built, wearing form-fitting outfits, which seemed metallic in |
| texture. He traveled onboard the “spacecraft” for what seemed like a |
| short distance, and did not go to another planet. He was shown a |
| guest room where he was allowed to sleep comfortably. Later, he was |
| given four crackers to eat and a small glass of a substance |
| resembling wine. He was told that what he ate would last for four |
| days. Among many things the humanoids told him was that they believed |
| “in a higher being.” (Source: Albert S. Rosales, 1976 Humanoid |
| Sighting Reports database, citing Fabio Picasso). |
| |
| 1976 - Four men--Weiner, Foltz, and Rak (including a set of |
| twins)--had gone out night fishing in a canoe during a camping trip |
| on East Lake in the Allagash Waterway, Maine when at around 9:00 p.m. |
| one of them became aware of being watched. He turned around and saw a |
| huge, bright, multicolored sphere of light rising from below the |
| treeline. When one of the men shined a flashlight at the object, it |
| began to approach their canoe slowly. A tube-shaped beam of light was |
| emitted from the object and hit the water. The object and the beam of |
| light began approaching the four men and all four of them began to |
| paddle frantically toward shore, trying to get away. At this point |
| they lost all conscious memory of what happened next. Later, under |
| hypnosis all four remembered being levitated up from their canoe and |
| into the hovering craft via a hollow tube-like beam of light. Inside |
| the they encountered several short dark gray-colored humanoids with |
| large oval-shaped heads and huge, black, almond-shaped eyes. They all |
| wore metallic uniforms and were described as somewhat insect like. |
| The men were made to undress and sit on a plastic like bench. The |
| humanoids then looked into each of the men’s eyes and mouths with a |
| pencil size rod with a light on its tip. Then each was made to lie on |
| an exam table where each was examined with several handheld and large |
| scanning machine like instruments. Samples of bodily fluids were |
| taken from all four men. Later, after several hours, they were |
| floated back down into their canoe. (Sources: Raymond E. Fowler, The |
| Allagash Affair; Alan Baker, p. 17; Albert S. Rosales, 1976 Humanoid |
| Sighting Reports database, case # 1134, citing Raymond E Fowler, |
| MUFON UFO Journal, issue 300). |
| |
| 1977 - The witness in Fontanigorda, Liguria, Italy was having |
| difficulty sleeping and got up at 4:15 a.m. when he noticed through |
| some partially opened blinds a very bright white light approach and |
| stop a few meters away. Moments later two figures with gold-colored |
| faces appeared in front of the light. The light then moved to the |
| right side near the curtains, which were the only things separating |
| the witness from the phenomenon. Next, one of the humanoid figure |
| started to enter his bedroom through the curtains; it had an |
| oval-shaped head with an upside-down, triangle-shaped light on the |
| top part of its face. The witness yelled out, causing the figure to |
| leave, leaving a faintly luminous handprint on the curtains. Soon |
| after this, two more figures were heard walking by. Finally, the |
| lights and the figures vanished. Investigators reportedly found |
| ground traces. (Sources: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| database, case # 1530, citing Maurizio Verga, ITACAT, case # 99; |
| Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 12310). |
| |
| 1978 - At ten o'clock in the evening two witnesses in a car in |
| Hyannis, Massachusetts on Cape Cod watched an oval-shaped craft |
| hovering low over the US Route 6 road. Within the craft several |
| figures could be seen moving about behind several rectangular |
| windows. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1978, |
| case # 2358, citing Raymond E. Fowler). |
| |
| 1979 - Two men in Sitio Dentro, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil were |
| walking back home late at night when they saw a huge bright light |
| appear above them, illuminating the area like daytime. They looked up |
| and saw a huge object coming towards them. They could see two beings |
| inside the craft through a transparent window. The beings could be |
| seen from the waist up and looked nearly identical to each other. |
| Both men ran behind a house and squatted by a wall, trying to hide |
| from the UFO. It then passed over a nearby bar making a very loud |
| noise. The next morning they discovered that the roof of the bar had |
| been tore off and several rafters had been broken. One of the men |
| felt sick for three days after the encounter. (Source: Albert S. |
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1979, case # 2594, citing Bob |
| Pratt, UFO Danger Zone). |
| |
| 1982 - A deer hunter in a hammock in a tree at night, in the jungle |
| in Cocalinho, Maranhao State, Brazil, waiting for deer, was zapped by |
| a beam from a nocturnal ball of light at around 6 a.m. He |
| became sick, laid down, and died shortly thereafter. (Source: Jacques |
| Vallee, Confrontations: A Scientist's Search for Alien Contact, pp. |
| 187, 207). |
| |
| 1984 - At a lake near Danbury, Connecticut a witness encountered a |
| UFO and lost 30 minutes of conscious memory; felt |
| "inspected-rejected." (Source: J. Allen Hynek & Philip Imbrogno, |
| Night Seige, p. 204). |
| |
| 1993 - At 9:45 p.m. a glowing UFO was sighted hovering just over the |
| moor at Ivybridge in Plymouth, England. Figures were seen walking |
| around underneath it. (Source: UFO Newsclipping Service, September |
| 1993). |
| |
| 1995 - On this night a man in Piracicaba, Sao Paulo State, Brazil |
| encountered three 50 cm tall humanoids wearying white coveralls and |
| helmets with antennas. One carried a pen-like instrument, which he |
| pointed towards the witness who fled on his motorcycle. When he |
| looked back he saw the humanoids walking towards a landed luminous |
| round object. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
| 1995, citing GEPUC Brazil). |
| |
| 1998 - The crew of a DC-10 flying over France observed the fast |
| passage of six luminous points of light in tight formation for 10 |
| seconds at 12:32 a.m., with a single trail. The flight was |
| horizontal, but described an arc of 90° in just 10 seconds, which was |
| judged to be a supersonic speed. (Source: GEIPAN, case 1998-297). |
| |
| 1999 - At 10:00 p.m. in Monkton, Strathclyde, Scotland a bright blue |
| flash was seen overhead, and the blue ball of light shot down to just |
| feet above a couple's car, where it hovered for a number of seconds. |
| The couple was frightened but unharmed. (Source: UFO Magazine (UK), |
| January 2000, p. 76). |
| |
| 1999 - At three a.m. a witness sighted three lights on a triangular |
| object over Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada; it made sharp turns over |
| CFB Suffield. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 1999 Canadian UFO Survey, case |
| # 156, citing Alberta UFO Study Group). |
| |
| 2004 - A lone witness in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada saw two |
| stationary lights in the sky for about an hour, beginning at 3:30 |
| a.m., at which time a haze or fog filled the area and he |
| lost consciousness. He woke up across his yard, with unusual marks on |
| his body, and believing he had been abducted by aliens. (Source: |
| Geoff Dittman, 2004 Canadian UFO Survey, case # 624). |
