|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  September 23 |
| |
| 1948 - At 9:40 a.m. a group at the Los Alamos, New Mexico airport saw |
| a tilted, silver disc-shaped UFO with the apparent diameter of a dime |
| at arm's length. Its estimated distance was 15 miles. (Source: Larry |
| Hatch, U computer database, case 1347, citing Jerome Clark). |
| |
| 1948 - San Pablo, California. At twelve noon Sylvester Bentham and |
| retired U.S. Army Colonel Horace Eakins observed two daylight UFOs: |
| one a buff or gray rectangle with vertical lines, the other a |
| translucent "amoeba" with a dark spot near the center. The arms of |
| the "amoeba" undulated. Both objects traveled very fast. (Source: Don |
| Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO Unknowns; Donald E. Keyhoe, Flying |
| Saucers: Top Secret, p. 90). |
| |
| 1951 - On this morning a total of seven F-86 fighters were scrambled |
| to chase a UFO that remained over southern California for nearly |
| ninety minutes. Two F-86 jet interceptors were scrambled from George |
| AFB near Victorville, California then vectored by air defense GCI |
| radar to a target off the Pacific Coast 30 miles west of Long Beach |
| Airport, where the jets circled and then headed east toward Long |
| Beach when the object was seen at 7:55 a.m. PDT at the 12 o'clock |
| high position. It was in a left orbit at about 50,000 feet, above the |
| F-86's. It appeared to be a bright silvery aircraft with highly swept |
| back 45° wings. The F-86's tried to climb to intercept the object but |
| it climbed away in response. Another two F-86's were scrambled from |
| George AFB at about 8:00 a.m. as the first two were running low on |
| fuel and broke off pursuit. The second pair of F-86's was vectored by |
| GCI  radar to Camp Pendleton, arrived there at 8:10 a.m. at 43,000 |
| feet, and spotted the object at the one o'clock high position back to |
| the north toward Muroc/Edwards AFB, appearing to be at about |
| 50,000-55,000 feet in a controlled orbit. It looked like a swept wing |
| aircraft that sped up when the F-86's tried to close. The object was |
| again found near March AFB, Riverside, California to the NNW but the |
| jets broke off intercept because they were low on fuel at about 8:20 |
| a.m., landing at 8:45. A third flight of two F-86's were scrambled |
| from George AFB and saw the object shortly after takeoff, heading |
| south. The F-86's made climbing turns up to 43,500 feet under the now |
| round silvery object at 55,000 feet over the San Bernardino |
| Mountains. They broke off the intercept at about 9:25 a.m. A seventh |
| F-86 was scrambled to the south toward Long Beach but the UFO had |
| gone. The Air Force explanation for the sightings was a balloon. |

| |
| 1954 - At three o'clock in the morning an ovoid-shaped UFO was |
| sighted on Highway N269 in Moussoulens, France. Two human-looking |
| occupants exited the craft, gestured, then re-entered it and the |
| object took off, flying to the north. (Source: Larry Hatch, U |

| |
| 1954 - At 9:00 p.m. in Le Jou, France the Patient family witnessed |
| the landing of a bright object that gave off a magnesium-like light, |
| a red glow, and a narrow beam of light. It took off again a moment |
| later and followed their car until they reached Fontland. Policemen |
| in Plombieres and several other independent witnesses observed the |
| object as it flew erratically over the area for 60 minutes. (Sources: |
| Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery, p. 69; |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 210). |
| |
| 1954 - At the same time as the Patient family sighting, Mrs. |
| Vignolles of Lencouacq, France saw a luminous object come down from |
| the sky very rapidly. It made no noise as it landed in a nearby |
| field, next to a church. It took off very fast a few seconds later. |
| (Sources: Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight Line Mystery, |
| p. 77; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. |
| 211). |
| |
| 1955 - An eight meter wide gray colored plate-shaped disc flew at |
| only 50 meters altitude over the town of Kreuzlingen, Switzerland on |
| this day. It was rotating as it flew by, six cycles per second. It |
| tilted upward and flew away. There were two witnesses. (Source: L. |
| Zinstag, UFO Sichtungen, p. 21). |

| 1960 - A Canadian ship reported that a cylindrical object with |
| lighted portholes came down, hit the ocean, and sank off the north |
| coast of Labrador. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A |
| Century of Landings, case 509). |
| |
| 1962 - An abduction reportedly occurred near Franconia Notch in the |
| White Mountains of New Hampshire. While driving on Route 3 at ten |
| p.m. the male witness saw a large, lighted domed-oval craft, the same |
| as he had seen in 1959. He parked his truck and walked into a blue |
| beam. Inside the craft he met the same four entities as he had |
| encountered three years before. He was shown controls, and watched |
| others being abducted and medically examined. He was taken to a |
| mother ship and returned in two hours. (Source: Morton Schafer, MUFON |
| case file investigations, case 930403E). |
| |
| 1965 - A luminous UFO flew over the city of Cuernavaca, Mexico on |
| this evening and caused three separate power failures. The domed |
| object was seen by thousands, including the mayor. (Sources: NICAP |
| UFO Investigator, December 1965, p. 3; Charles Bowen, Flying Saucer |
| Review, January-February 1966, p. 14; Frank Edwards, Flying Saucers - |
| Serious Business, p. 259). |
| |
| 1967 - Four photographs were taken on this evening of an orange, |
| flare-like light that flew in from the south over the Stafford, |
| England railway station. It stopped above the station, shot up, |
| vanished, reappeared, moved around in an odd manner, and then faded |
| away. There was no sound. (Source: Roger H. Stanway & Pace, UFOs: |
| Unidentified, Undeniable, p. 16). |
| |
| 1967 - At 1:37 p.m. Dr. B. Hand, a geology professor and a NICAP UFO |
| investigator, sighted two silver cylinders moving against the wind in |
| a bright blue sky over Amherst, Massachusetts. They made no sound as |
| they went behind some low lying cumulus clouds and did not emerge. |
| (Source: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs: Interplanetary Visitors, p. 349). |

| |
| 1968 - Later that same evening at ten p.m. Mr. Battease looked out |
| his bedroom window, six miles east of Roosevelt, Utah in Duchesne |
| County, and saw a double convex disc that was slightly flatter on the |
| bottom. It had red lights on top and was making a humming sound. The |
| lights were steady and the disc moved at the speed of an airplane. |
| (Source: Frank Salisbury, Utah UFO Display, Appendix case 68). |
| |
| 1971 - Three people saw a twelve foot by twelve foot by ten foot |
| box-shaped object in an oilfield in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada at |
| 4:30 p.m. It was not there a short time later. When they |
| investigated, they found footprints that descended a steep ledge. |
| (Sources: John Magor, Our UFO Visitors, p. 183; Ted Phillips, |
| Physical Traces Associated with UFO Sightings, p. 491). |
| |
| 1972 - Eight children reported watching a UFO maneuvering in the sky |
| over Sudbury, Ontario for over an hour, beginning at around eight |
| p.m. The object had a green dome and red and green body lights. |
| (Sources: newspaper clipping dated September 25, 1972, Lumieres dans |
| la Nuit, issue #127). |
| |
| 1973 - In Tyler, Texas a truck driver going to work this morning at |
| five a.m. saw a small "airplane" change shape into a cigar, hover for |
| awhile, and then change shape again into an elongated balloon with |
| lights. He heard a "loop-loop-loop" thumping sound emanating from the |
| object. A bright square light also swung from the object. (Source: |
| John P. Timmerman, International UFO Reporter, July 2002, p. 24). |
| |
| 1973 - At 7:20 p.m. a huge object, described as a "flying |
| oceanliner," was seen from a residential area of Fort Wayne, Indiana |
| as it moved behind the treeline. It had five rows of lights of its |
| side, and was seen for several minutes. (Source: Francis Ridge, |
| Regional Encounters, p. 37). |
| |
| 1975 - An elongated fuselage-shaped object 15 meters long with |
| several big, lighted portholes appeared over Cambrai, Nord, France at |
| 10:30 p.m. It moved rapidly and vanished instantaneously when chased |
| by a French Air Force Mirage III jet. It made four appearances. |
| (Source: Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 39). |
| |
| 1978 - At midnight two locksmiths watched a mysterious light |
| pulsating and hovering silently above the ground near Biela Lake, |
| Carpathia, Romania. It suddenly disappeared in plain sight. Around |
| the same time an army private at a nearby military barracks was |
| walking around some buildings when a two meter tall, dark man |
| confronted him. The soldier ran into the barracks to get additional |
| witnesses, but when they came back out he was unable to locate |
| anyone. He saw the being again, later, standing against a window. |
| (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1978, case # |
| 1783, citing Boczor Iosif, Fate, September 1994). |
| |
| 1978 - Before dawn, during a road rally north of Viedma, Argentina |
| one of the cars, a Citroen being driven by two men named Sr. Acevedo |
| Ramirez and Sr. Moya, was approached from behind at high speed by a |
| bright yellow luminous light, blinding the witnesses. They estimated |
| the approaching object's speed at 300 kph. They felt their car |
| levitated four meters from the ground and experienced the loss of |
| steering, and the car's engine and lights died. As the light faded |
| their car descended to the right shoulder of the road. However, they |
| had experienced a two hour loss of time and were somewhere else along |
| the road than they should have been. (Sources: Jane Thomas, UFO |
| Newsclipping Service, November 1978, p. 15, citing Cronica, September |
| 24, 1978; Richard Hall, MUFON UFO Journal, October 1978, p. 11; |
| Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II: A Thirty Year Report, pp. |
| 204, 276, 350). |
| |
| 1978 - That morning a florist in the city of Rosario, Argentina saw a |
| reddish-orange lighted sphere make several 90-degree turns impossible |
| for any conventional aircraft. The object crossed over the Parana |
| River into Entre Rios province. (Source: Jane Thomas, UFO |
| Newsclipping Service, November 1978, p. 16, citing Cronica, September |
| 27, 1978). |
| |
| 1979 - In Feignies, Nord, France a near collision occurred on the |
| D136 highway between an automobile and a six-meter wide disc on the |
| highway, at five o'clock in the morning. The UFO had portholes around |
| its rim. It flew off toward the southwest into some trees. (Source: |
| Lumieres dans la Nuit, December 1980). |
| |
| 1979 - A silver cigar-shaped object approached a cattle lot two miles |
| north of Dexter, Iowa at 1:28 p.m. It was only 150 feet above the |
| ground, had no wings or windows, and made no sound. It hovered in |
| place for a few minutes so the witness, a 49-year-old contractor, got |
| out of his truck and attempted to walk underneath it. It then moved |
| off toward the northeast, moving rapidly, and rose slightly into the |
| sky. (Source: International UFO Reporter, July 1979, p. 12). |
| |
| 1984 - At 7:30 p.m. several nocturnal lights buzzed fishermen fishing |
| in the Parnaiba River in Maranhao State, Brazil. A door was heard to |
| slam, and voices were heard. Footprints were found on the bank of the |
| river. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Confrontations: A Scientist's Search |
| for Alien Contact, p. 182). |
| |
| 1984 - At 8:00 p.m. a large disc-shaped UFO followed a Piper airplane |
| from Cordoba to Resistensia, Argentina. It reportedly maneuvered at |
| great speed, and changed color from silver to orange. The plane's |
| compass oscillated between 0.5 and 270 degrees, and there were |
| several other variations noted in other onboard instruments. (Source: |
| Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 51). |
| |
| 1989 - At 9 p.m. a boy named Torshin returning home late in the |
| evening from school in Voronezh, Russia noticed a large round red |
| object with a black, door-like hatch hovering close to the ground. It |
| suddenly landed on four legs and the hatch opened. A ladder descended |
| and a square, robot-like being emerged. The witness did not stay |
| around. (Sources: Jacques Vallee, UFO Chronicles of the Soviet Union: |
| A Cosmic Samizdat, p. 202; Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| Database 1989, case # 535, citing Gordon Creighton, in Timothy Good |
| (ed.), The UFO Report 1991). |
| |
| 1996 - In Bouville, France a circular object was seen at 8:50 p.m. |
| only 100 meters away. It had three square windows and a beam of light |
| in the front. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 17426, |
| citing Banque OVNI Reports, case 96). |
| |
| 1996 - Lyn and Jean, two women from Kennoway, Fife, Scotland had seen |
| a huge triangular craft shining very bright beams of lights towards |
| the ground at around 8 p.m. The object hovered over the area and was |
| seen to bank slowly, revealing a large dome on top. On the underside |
| they could see three small red lights on each apex. The craft shot |
| away suddenly at the sound of an approaching aircraft. At 8:30 p.m. |
| the witnesses again saw the huge triangle over the same location, |
| shining down powerful beams of white light. |
| |
| The witnesses returned back to the area at 9:55 p.m. and watched a |
| powerful blue glow appear over a nearby field at about treetop level. |
| In order to get a better look they drove down a narrow lane and |
| parked their vehicle. They then saw a large star-like object just |
| above the blue glow that was pulsing while appearing to grow |
| repeatedly larger and smaller. Suddenly they noticed the silhouettes |
| of many small thin figures, moving about in the field. One of the |
| figures was much taller than the others, around seven feet tall. |
| Other small beings moved in among trees in the field, while a large |
| black object sat on the ground. The figures appeared to be moving |
| towards this object. At this point the witnesses became extremely |
| frightened and drove away. |
| |
| They arrived at the home of one of them and borrowed some binoculars, |
| after which they soon returned to the same location and again saw the |
| blue light, still glowing, and they again saw the little beings |
| moving about the trees. They also saw the very tall being again, |
| standing with its back to them. Viewing the hovering object with |
| binoculars, they could now tell that it was amber in color, with dark |
| indentations all around it. It rotated slowly, occasionally turning |
| on its axis. Dozens of small creatures were visible inside, |
| apparently carrying small boxes and tubular canisters around. Taller |
| figures were also seen and described as having brown skin and |
| oriental shaped eyes. They seemed to be supervising a large group of |
| the smaller beings. Using the binoculars they now spotted a large |
| transparent illuminated capsule-shaped object, that rippled on the |
| outside and had indentations like the crenulations of a brain. The |
| object appeared to be resting on the ground, and there were some very |
| small, thin beings inside it. Next to this object was another smaller |
| one, identical to the first, but this one contained a very tall being |
| with brown skin and narrow eyes. Another larger craft was also seen |
| on the ground near the woods. There were lots of lights around it and |
| dozens of small entities that appeared to be working in groups, |
| coming and going from the woods. The witnesses also saw capsule |
| shaped objects resembling cocoons coming out of the woods. These |
| objects suddenly shot across the field towards the witnesses, |
| hovering only a few feet from them. Each of the capsules contained a |
| small entity. They were soon dozens of bubbles or capsules hovering |
| near the two women. |
| |
| At this point the witnesses became disoriented and had vague memories |
| of being touched by the small entities with probe-like devices. These |
| small entities were described as having big dark eyes, big heads, and |
| smiled at the witnesses. They communicated among themselves by making |
| loud high-pitched noises. They remember leaving the area and |
| returning home in a state of shock. Later, while checking the scene |
| of the incident, UFO investigators found circular marks on the |
| ground, burnt and dead vegetation, and branches from nearby trees |
| covered in what appeared to be white spider web material. (Sources: |
| Tony Todd, UFO Magazine (UK), Volume 15, No.15; Ron Halliday, UFO |
| Scotland: The Secret History of Scotland's UFO Phenomenon, p. 162; |
| Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1996, case # 2562). |
| |
| 1999 - A silver-metallic, featureless disc dropped to 75 meters |
| altitude over Interstate 75 near McDonough, Georgia on this night. It |
| then moved off rapidly to the west and hovered there for a couple of |
| minutes. (Source: George Filer, Filer's Files, volume 9, # 39). |
| |
| 2000 - Ms. Rosa Lopez was on her way home late one night at 3:25 a.m. |
| near Sevilla, Spain when her vehicle entered a strange fog on the |
| road. When she drove out of the fog she was surprised to see that it |
| was almost five a.m. already, although it seemed only minutes had |
| passed. Later, under hypnotic regression, she recounted encountering |
| a huge metallic object on the road. Her car then stalled and stopped. |
| Several short figures with large heads and huge eyes next surrounded |
| her vehicle. She felt weak and helpless as the humanoids carried her |
| into the UFO. She was questioned and put through what she thought was |
| a "brain scanning" device. She was then taken back to her car, and |
| she drove away apparently still under the control of the humanoids. |
| She only seemed to snap out of it completely when she got home. |

| 3935, citing Jose Manuel Garcia Bautista & Rafael Cabello Herrero). |
| |
| 2006 - A large triangular craft flew low over two witnesses traveling |
| in a car in Ste. Adolphe, Manitoba at 8:30 p.m. No noise was heard |
| coming from the object. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 2006 Canadian UFO |
| Survey, case # 624). |
