| colored spot of light hung motionless in the sky above an aircraft |
| factory for 15 minutes. It appeared to turn on edge, and then went |
| straight up out of sight. In Chicago, Illinois two discs were seen |
| exiting from a cloud. They flipped over completely, and then returned |
| to the same cloud. (Sources: Loren Gross, UFOs: A History - 1952: |

| letter dated March 27, 1952). |

| jet over Mount Taylor, New Mexico at 7:25 p.m. The case is listed as |

| object had a waffle shaped surface on the bottom, and glowed with an |
| intense red light. (Sources: Project Bluebook files counted in |

| saw two small creatures "who appeared to be joined by a silver bar." |
| They spoke in a language he couldn't understand. (Sources: George D. |

| Tabouret Reservoir in Isere, France and then landed on the ground, |
| leaving ground marks. A man was seen outside the craft, according to |
| the police report. At 8:00 p.m. a thirty-foot long cylindrical UFO |
| rose from the surf off of the shore at Oak Bluffs on Martha Vineyard, |
| Massachusetts. The witness was reportedly frozen in place during the |
| 20 minute close encounter, and his watch stopped working. (Sources: |

| 1983 - During this evening Russian Air Traffic Controllers had |
| radar-visual reports of a steel-gray colored UFO, the shape of a |
| cigar and the size of an airliner, in view and on their screens for |
| 40 minutes. It was first picked up 50 nautical miles north of |
| Gor'kiy, Russia and vanished about 25 nautical miles from the city. |

| |
| 2003 - On this same night at 7:00 p.m. in Liverpool, England a large, |
