| |
| 1950 - Mr. Quintana of Denver, Colorado saw a silvery green ovoid |
| object hovering about 15 meters above a slope on South Table |
| Mountain. It landed slowly in a small ravine. Then it shot upward at |
| very high speed. Its diameter was about 20 meters, and it had a |
| revolving middle band. A greenish light flashed under it, and the |
| witness felt a rush of air and a pungent smell. (Source: Jacques |
| Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 194, citing |
| Flying Saucers, July 1959). |
| |
| 1952 - Several bright discs, each estimated to be three feet in |
| diameter, followed a B-29 Superfortress flying 30 miles |
| west-southwest of Wonsan, Korea at 11:20 p.m. A second sighting |
| occurred at 11:24 p.m. with a different squadron of B-29s flying near |
| Sunchon, Korea. (Sources: Kenneth Arnold & Ray Palmer, The Coming of |
| the Saucers, p. 157; Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. |
| 15; UNICAT, case 625, citing Life magazine, April 7, 1952). |
| |
| 1953 - Hearing a commotion in his barn, a farmer in Conway, South |
| Carolina observed an object about seven meters long and four meters |
| wide at treetop level. It was light gray in color and lit up inside. |
| It resembled an egg sliced in half lengthwise. The witness fired his |
| gun at the object. Numerous livestock died "mysteriously" in the area |
| after the sighting. At 2:00 p.m. four huge metallic discs, each the |
| size of a B-36 bomber, flew over Malibu Beach, California at a speed |
| in excess of 1,000 mph. At five minutes before midnight an F-94 jet |
| interceptor and two other fighter aircraft reported seeing a dark |
| gray, oval-shaped UFO flying over Presque Isle, Maine. (Sources: |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 202; |
| Fate Magazine, June 1953, p. 12, citing Los Angeles Examiner; Project |
| Blue Book files; Donald E. Keyhoe, Flying Saucers from Outer Space, |
| p. 219). |
| |
| 1954 - A married couple was driving six miles south of Santa Ana, |
| California in the afternoon when their car radio quit and the engine |
| missed as a disc-shaped UFO passed low over their car. (Sources: APRO |
| Bulletin, March 1954; Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving Vehicle |
| Interference, p. 2). |
| |
| 1962 - A Royal Dutch Air Force F-86 jet interceptor was chased by a |
| UFO over the eastern Netherlands. The event was witnessed by six |
| members of the military and the UFO was detected by ground and |
| airborne radar. (Sources: NICAP UFO Investigator, September 1962, |
| p. 1; Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence, p. 122; Dominique Weinstein, |
| Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 33). |
| |
| 1967 - At around 10:00 p.m. Mrs. Enid Campbell saw from her window in |
| her home near Knox City, Missouri what at first looked like the full |
| moon, but as it got closer she could see that it was a |
| Saturn-shaped object, with the main body white in color like a |
| frosted light bulb and a shiny gold horizontal ring around the |
| center which had numerous round holes. The object came up to within |
| several feet of her window before stopping, and through its |
| semi-transparent material she could see a control panel with a lever |
| on top, and two occupants, one seated at the panel, the other |
| standing. They wore "shiny, silvery wetsuits." She called her sons |
| Gene, age 18, and George, age 14, who came to the window in time to |
| see the object as it rose and moved away. While it hovered nearby two |
| smaller white luminous spheres approached and entered the craft |
| through an opening, after which the holes in the central ring jetted |
| out red fire. Then the object ascended vertically and disappeared. |
| The snow on the ground under the spot where it had been hovering was |
| melted, and the ground over which the object first approached the |
| house failed to grow plants, while plants elsewhere grew |
| normally. (Sources: Skylook, April 1971, p. 12 and November 1972, |
| p. 8; Francis L. Ridge, Regional Encounters, p. 27; David F. Webb & |
| Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1967-10, |
| citing Ted Phillips for MUFON). |
| |
| 1968 - A woman living alone in an isolated cabin on Keats Island, |
| British Columbia had for several days witnessed mysterious lights and |
| unknown objects maneuvering over some nearby hills and a nearby lake. |
| On this afternoon two men dressed in neatly pressed, apparently new |
| dark coveralls, and claiming to be from the public water company, |
| visited her. The men acted nervous and seemed surprised that she |
| lived there alone. They finally left disappearing down a nearby |
| footpath. They seemed to have no obvious means for getting on or off |
| the island, and she completely disbelieved their story that they were |
| from the public utility. (Sources: Peter Guttilla, Saga UFO Report, |
| Summer 1974; John Magor, Our UFO Visitors, p. 44; Albert S. Rosales, |
| Humanoid Contact Database 1968, case #1079, citing Peter Guttilla, |
| Saga UFO Report, July 1974). |
| |
| 1969 - At ten o'clock in the morning an 80-year-old woman in |
| Matadepera, Barcelona, Spain witnessed a pear-shaped UFO with a |
| horizontal axis that landed very close (within 11 m), making a |
| "revving" noise. It was estimated to be three meters long and had a |
| 2.5 meter diameter, and was wider in the front. It gave off bright |
| colors, green and yellow mostly, and was described as "very pretty." |
| After landing it made an abrupt turn to pass under some high tension |
| (5 Kv) power lines. (Sources: Jose Maria Casas-Huguet, FSR Case |
| Histories, December 1972, p. 1; Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos, |
| Catalogue of 200 Type-I UFO Events in Spain and Portugal, case 102; |
| UNICAT, case # 426, citing Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos, OVNIs: El |
| Fenomeno Aterrizaje, p. 88). |
| |
| 1970 - A man and woman in their mid-twenties had a close encounter |
| with a disc-shaped object while driving on U.S. Highway 44 in Cassia, |
| Lake County, Florida. The object made a whirring sound, and emitted a |
| variety of flashing multicolored lights. There was an independent |
| witness. (Sources: George D. Fawcett, Flying Saucers, September 1970, |
| p. 5; Data-Net Report, March 1970, p. 14, citing Sun News). |
| |
| 1972 - At 7:30 p.m. in Chatsworth, Ventura County, California a |
| slowly rotating disc-shaped object with lights around the rim was |
| seen for a minute by a mail carrier. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer |
| database, case # 9468, citing NICAP UFO Investigator, February 1972). |
| |
| 1974 - A flight instructor and his student were flying over the |
| Pacific Ocean off the coast of Santa Ana, Orange County, California |
| in the middle of the day when they were buzzed by five glowing red |
| UFOs, which circled their plane for the next hour. (Sources: |
| Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 38). |
| |
| 1976 - Mr. Carrasco, a 29-year-old farmer, was walking home at 12:30 |
| a.m. in Benacazon, Sevilla province, Spain when he heard a noise |
| “like a jet.” Turning around, he saw a brilliant light hovering in |
| the sky; it approached and landed 18 feet away. It was dark green, |
| rectangular, and taller than a telephone booth, and it stood on three |
| legs. From this landed object emerged two men 6’6” or more in height, |
| who came to within 12 or 15 ft of the witness. They were clad in dark |
| but luminous tight fitting clothing resembling rubber or plastic, |
| with wide belts whose buckles emitted blindingly bright and hot |
| flashes of red and white light; he could not see their faces, but |
| noticed that they had shoulder-length blondish-white hair. The |
| witness put his hands over his face, but could not stir from the |
| spot. He heard the men talking in a language he could not understand; |
| then he began to run. The UFO rose and flew over him, emitting |
| something that burned him; he lost consciousness until at 0230A he |
| found himself at the door of his house in Benacazon. He had to be |
| hospitalized for shock. In the hospital he was found to have strange |
| sooty black marks on his right cheek, on the palms of both hands, on |
| his shoulders and on his right arm; these began to disappear after |
| 7-8 hours. (Sources: Joaquin M. Nogales, MUFON UFO Journal, August |
| 1976, p. 16; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of |
| Humanoid Reports, case 1976-31 (A1452), citing J. J. Benitez, FSR, |
| Vol. 22, No. 1 & Iker Jimenez). |
| |
| 1976 - At around 10:15 p.m., while driving near Pahrump, |
| Nevada southwest of Las Vegas, Country & Western singer Johnny Sands |
| saw a rusty orange cigar-shaped object descend from the sky. The |
| object was at least 60 feet long, and had flashing red and white |
| lights on one end and a dark ring around the middle section, which |
| also had portholes. His car stopped running, and he got out to check |
| the engine. He next saw two men, about 200 feet away, walking toward |
| him. They wore silver sparkling one-piece uniforms with a diagonal |
| black stripe, and a round white central emblem. He wanted to get back |
| into his car but felt paralyzed and unable to move. As the men |
| approached, he saw that they were bald and had close set squinting |
| eyes, a grayish white complexion, and something that lookede like |
| folds or gills under their ears. Their mouths were very small and |
| their noses “puggish.” One of them questioned Sands in English, but |
| he did not hear the words coming from the being's mouth. It spoke in |
| a slow, “robot-like” voice. The voice asked him, “What are you doing |
| here?” and he replied, “I am an entertainer.” The next question was |
| “What are your means of communication,” which he was at a loss to |
| answer. Four or five other questions were asked, which he has chosen |
| not to reveal. They said that they would see him again. Turning to |
| go, the leader brushed his fingertips over Mr. Sands hand, which |
| seemed to release him from the paralysis. They walked away, and the |
| car started again. Many observers reported seeing rust-colored cigar |
| shaped objects over the Las Vegas Valley that night. (Sources: APRO |
| Bulletin, March-April 1976, p. 1; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1976-32 (A1453), |
| citing Bob Pratt, National Enquirer). |
| |
| 1979 - In the early morning hours a married couple in Bissoe Truro, |
| Cornwall County, England were awakened at around two a.m. to find |
| their bedroom lit up brightly. One of the witnesses looked out the |
| window and was amazed to see a bright hovering oval-shaped craft. |
| Inside could be seen two human-looking men with long wavy blond hair. |
| The UFO glided silently away and then shot away at high speed. |
| (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1979, case |
| 1435, citing Bob Boyd, Plymouth UFO Research Group). |
| |
| 1980 - At ten p.m. three National Telephone Company officials, Gomez, |
| Polar, and Aguilar, on the highway between the towns of Desaguadero |
| and Pomata, Peru saw a bright circular UFO with red and white lights |
| on the bottom hover stationary at 1000 meters altitude. It went |
| behind a cloud for three minutes, then was observed for five more |
| minutes as it flew over Lake Titicaca. (Sources: Richard Heiden, UFO |
| Newsclipping Service, April 1980, p. 13; translating El Commercio, |
| February 16, 1980; Jane Thomas, UFO Newsclipping Service, April 1980, |
| p. 14, translating La Razon, February 15, 1980). |
| |
| 1982 - At two o'clock in the morning a student in Bankstown, a suburb |
| of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia had a low level close encounter |
| with a five-meter thick rectangular object with a glassy |
| metallic surface. The object was only 100 meters away. It had bluish |
| yellow bottom lights, and green lights on the side. The UFO caused |
| nearby trees to sway, TV static interference, and streetlights in the |
| area to turn off. The object took off with a vertical ascent. After |
| the object left the streetlights came back on 20 minutes later. |

| EM Effects Catalog website). |
| |
| 1986 - In Dal'negorsk, Vladivostok, Russia in eastern Asia a red |
| fireball flew parallel to the ground with an estimated speed of 15 |
| meters per second, leaving no wake or trail. At 7:55 p.m. it dove |
| silently into the slope ofHill 611 (a mountain 611 meters in height), |
| then jumped up-and-down six times. A very bright light, like flames |
| from a welding torch, was observed coming from the mountain for an |
| hour, then the red ball of light took off. Traces at the site |
| included a fine, glassy metallic fabric debris, lead and iron |
| pellets, and magnetic anomalies. Temperature at the crash site was |
| estimated to have been as high as 25,000 deg C. (Sources: Paul |
| Stonehill, The Soviet UFO Files, p. 92; William R. Corliss, |
| Remarkable Luminous Phenomena in Nature, p. 283). |
| |
| 1987 - At 5:43 a.m. several Mozambican laborers working in Zimbabwe |
| reported seeing a large, brightly lit balloon-shaped object passing |
| over Chimanimani, Zimbabwe. The witnesses were able to see two men |
| inside the craft. One was dressed in blue and the other in white. The |
| witnesses interpreted the object as "witch doctors" traveling from |
| South Africa. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
| 1987, case # 1050, citing Cynthia Hind, MUFON Symposium Proceedings |
| 1987). |
| |
| 1989 - A woman in Redding, California reported six giant beige |
| triangular objects that moved from south to north at low altitude at |
| 9:35 p.m. (Source: Paul Ferrughelli, Computer Catalog of UFO Reports, |
| 1988-94, case 238, citing Robert Gribble, UFO Reporting Center, |
| Seattle). |
| |
| 1990 - At 7:30 a.m. a brilliant disc-shaped object stopped over the |
| town of Montbazon, Indre-Loire department, France, hovered for about |
| a minute, then shot away at high speed. (Source: Lumieres dans la |
| Nuit, issue 301). |
| |
| 1990 - A huge dark mass flanked by two beacons, and lit by a halo, |
| was seen over farm country in Wellman, Iowa at nine o'clock in the |
| evening. (Source: Paul Ferrughelli, Computer Catalog of UFO Reports, |
| 1988-94, case 831, citing UFO Newsclipping Service). |
| |
| 1996 - At two o'clock in the morning an orange glow was seen in some |
| woods east of Villalba, Lugo, Spain. Then a 25 foot in diameter dome |
| rose from the woods, but sank back down again. It had a metallic door |
| that was visible on one side. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer |
| database, case 17591). |
| |
| 1998 - A shiny metallic daylight disc, saucer shaped with a dome on |
| top and with row of blinking red lights, was seen flying over |
| Coventry, Rhode Island at two o'clock in the afternoon. (Source: |
| Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, January 1998 |
| webpage). |
| |
| 2000 - There were several UFO reports made on this evening in and |
| around Sydney, New South Wales, Australia between 8:30 and 11:00 p.m. |
| In one report from South Penrith six witnesses watched four objects |
| that stopped moving across the sky at 9:30 p.m. and then backtracked. |
| At 10:15 p.m. five bright lights in a triangle formation changed to a |
| straight line, looking like balls of fire, giving off what seemed to |
| be smoke. These five bright lights were also observed by a married |
| couple from Glenmore. They reported that after about eight minutes |
| the first light disappeared, then the third one. The object or |
| objects were just below the cloud cover. There were also sightings in |
| Adelaide, South Australia this night. Single and multiple bright |
| orange orbs were seen flying over the city, and they were seen to |
| disappear in vicinity of the Blue Mountains. (Sources: Karen Burden & |
| Robert Frola, Australasian Ufologist, January 2001, pp. 40 & 46; UFO |
| Magazine (USA), June 2000, p. 37). |
| |
| 2001 - At 12:15 p.m. a resident of the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil |
| reported that first everything froze on the street. Then a UFO |
| appeared overhead with multicolored lights--white, blue and |
| red--spinning on the underside. A door in the object opened, and a |
| tall being with long skinny arms, a skinny body, and a large head |
| appeared in view. The door quickly shut, and the object shot away. |
