|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  January 26 |
| |
| 1950 - Three orange cylinders flew to the north at 1600 km/h over |
| Elmendorf AFB, Alaska. It was witnessed by a Lieutenant Colonel and |
| another military witness. It was lost from sight when it disappeared |
| into an odd looking, lone small thin cloud. (Source: Larry Hatch, U |
| computer database, case # 1498). |
| |
| 1953 - At 6:20 p.m. an airman witnessed a 60 meter long luminous |
| cigar-shaped or rectangular object with hazy ends, that flew from |
| east to west over Sampson Air Force Base in Ontario County, New York |
| while climbing slightly. It made a high frequency humming sound. It |
| flew at an estimated 2500m altitude. In one minute the object |
| traveled through an arc of 70 or 80 degrees. (Sources: Larry Hatch, U |
| computer database, case # 2958, citing Jan Aldrich, Project 1947: A |
| Preliminary Report on the 1947 UFO Sighting Wave, p. 5; Project Blue |
| Book Report #10, report dated February 27, 1953; NARA-PBB85-816). |
| |
| 1953 - At 9:15 p.m. MST Air Force personnel stationed at the 769th |
| AC&W station in Continental Divide, New Mexico observed an aerial |
| phenomenon simultaneously by electronic and visual means. To the |
| naked eye the object appeared as a very bright reddish-white object |
| estimated to be 10 miles west of the radar site. The object passed |
| behind a hill and then reappeared, apparently heading in a northerly |
| direction at a slow speed. The airman making this visual observation |
| reported it to personnel manning the radar equipment. They stated |
| that they had an unidentified blip on the radar scope, appearing west |
| of the station approximately 9 miles away. The scope showed the |
| object to be on a 270 azimuth at an altitude of 10,000-15,000 feet |
| moving away from the site at 12-15 mph. It was eventually lost on |
| radar at the 18 mile range. The object was under visual and radar |
| observation intermittently for 45 minutes. (Sources: Project Blue |
| Book Report #10, report dated February 27, 1953; Gordon D. Thayer, in |
| Edward U. Condon (ed.), Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying |
| Objects, p. 192; UNICAT, case # 653; (NARA-PBB85-814)). |
| |
| 1955 - At 6:15 p.m. J. M. Holland saw a black smoke trail make a |
| circle in Lakeland, Florida. There was an explosion and some objects |
| fell from sky. A Project Blue Book unknown. (Sources: Project Blue |
| Book files counted in official statistics, case # 3401; Jacques |
| Vallee, Anatomy of a Phenomenon, p. 102; Don Berliner, The Blue Book |
| Unknowns). |
| |
| 1956 - On this afternoon a woman in her driveway in Toledo, Ohio |
| spotted a silver, pancake-shaped disc that flew by smoothly for about |
| a minute. (Sources: Alexander Mebane, Civilian Saucer Intelligence |
| New York Newsletter, February 1956, p. 5; Loren E. Gross, The Fifth |
| Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1956 (volume 6), p. 9). |
| |
| 1958 - A very bright object landed before numerous chemical workers |
| in Shimada City, Japan at 4 p.m. They reported beings falling from |
| the sky without parachutes. They wore strange suits and spoke an |
| unknown language. (Sources: Flying Saucer Review, May-June 1958; |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case 458; |
| David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, |
| case A0458). |
| |
| 1959 - On the island of Hokkaido, Japan at 4 p.m. many witnesses |
| watched two glowing lens-shaped discs that flew slowly to the west. |
| One made a 180 degree turn to the east. Both were completely silent. |
| (Source: Loren E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: |
| A History. 1959: January-March, p. 34). |
| |
| 1965 - A group of teenagers, including Steve Miller, age 16, were |
| driving on Route 250 near Brands Flats, Virginia at 7:30 p.m. when |
| they saw a little man about 3 ½ feet tall sitting by the road |
| watching the cars go by. He was wearing a silvery looking one-piece |
| outfit. They got out of the car and pursued the little man. Two more |
| little men joined the first and ran with him, and they easily outran |
| the teens leaving no footprints in the muddy ground. The group then |
| contacted the Staunton police, and within an hour a group of police |
| were on the scene, as well as a young news photographer, Charles |
| Weaver. Weaver, and another man named Huffer approached a barn, which |
| the photographer entered first. Huffer heard his companion call out |
| to him, and when Huffer entered the barn he found Weaver on the |
| ground. Weaver claimed something struck him and knocked him down. The |
| pair left the barn quickly, but as they fled they thought they saw a |
| little man standing in front of the building. Weaver paused long |
| enough to take a photo before joining up with the other |
| investigators. The disposition of the photograph has never been |
| determined. (Sources: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue |
| of Humanoid Reports, case # 1965-09 (A0619), citing a newspaper |
| clipping, January 27, 1965). |
| |
| 1967 - Sixty military witnesses at a U.S. base in Heidelberg, |
| Germany heard a pulsating sound at 8:30 p.m., and then saw a shiny |
| metallic dirigible-shaped object hovering over a building 100 |
| feet away. As jets approached to investigate the object, it took off |
| with lights flashing in a regular cycle. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, |
| May-June 1967, p. 4; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II:  A |
| Thirty-Year Report, p. 326). |

| 1967 - Three women saw an oblong, gray and red object, with prongs of |
| various colors was seen over Jamaica, Queens borough, New York at |
| 1:30 a.m. Parts of the UFO seemed to move independently. The sighting |
| lasted more than two hours. (Sources: NICAP New York case |
| investigation; Condon Committee UFO Study). |
| |
| 1967 - On this morning, about a week after seeing a large metallic |
| sphere hovering above a highway near Charleston, West Virginia, Tad |
| Jones was driving along the same highway at the same time when he |
| came upon a man standing on the roadside in the same spot where the |
| sphere had hovered. Thinking that it was a hitchhiker Tad slowed down |
| and called to him. The man did not reply but merely waved him on. He |
| described the man as very tanned, wearing a blue coat, and a blue cap |
| with a visor. He was holding a box in his hand. It appeared to be |
| some kind of instrument with a dial on it, like a clock, and a wire |
| ran from it to his other hand. A later check with the local gas |
| company proved negative as far as it being one of their men. |
| Furthermore, no such instrument described by Jones was in use |
| anywhere by any of their employees. He saw the same man again the |
| next day, but drove on. (Sources: John Keel, FSR, May-June 1967, |
| p. 4; Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1967, case # 3096, |
| citing John Keel, The Mothman Prophecies). |
| |
| 1967 - A Methodist minister was driving on Route 185 near Coffeen, |
| Illinois at 9:00 p.m. when he saw an object that was flat on the |
| bottom and rounded on top cross the road 100 meters in front of him. |
| It made no noise and moved slowly. He estimated that it was 20 meters |
| in length and three meters in height. (Source: Jacques Vallee, |
| Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case 812, citing USAF Air |
| Technical Intelligence Center). |
| |
| 1968 - Two men in River Bann, Derryvore, Ireland saw a disc land in a |
| field. Several entities emerged and placed probes into the hides of |
| several paralyzed cows in the field. The UFO then took off and |
| showered a fog-like substance that caused a tingling sensation, and |
| the UFO then disappeared into a cloud. (Source: Jenny Randles, Little |
| Giant Encyclopedia of UFOs). |
| |
| 1969 - On a farm southeast of Fernley, Nevada while milking cows at |
| five o'clock in the morning, a young man named Schade saw a red |
| glowing sphere moving slowly, ten meters above the ground, a quarter |
| of a mile away. The object hovered, the emitted white mist. Each time |
| it stopped moving the light went out. Finally, the UFO ascended with |
| a jerky motion toward the west and Reno. (Sources: Mark Massingill, |
| NICAP case file, report dated February 24, 1969; Data-Net Report, |
| October 1971, p. 5). |
| |

| |
| 1971 - A young couple out driving in the early hours of the morning |
| in Jackson, Ohio had a close encounter with a spherical object that |
| rose from the ground, and then hovered directly in front of their |
| car. The driver stopped his car and backed away. The ball of light |
| changed color from orange to purple. When the drove off it followed |
| them. (Source: Columbus Dispatch, January 27, 1971; NICAP UFO |
| Investigator, March-April 1971, p. 1). |
| |
| 1972 - At three a.m. Norman Chastain was out fishing late at night in |
| the St. Johns River near Blount Island, Florida when he saw something |
| like "half a ball" with orange and blue flashing lights. It came |
| "directly toward my boat" and hovered noiselessly overhead at 150 |
| feet. He turned off his light and the object slowly moved off. He had |
| drifted to the shore and with his spotlight he could see in the |
| nearby woods "the darndest looking human-like creature one could ever |
| imagine." Waht he saw was a humanoid creature about five feet tall, |
| with pointed ears, large eyes, and a sharp chin. Next a brilliant |
| white light hit him that paralyzed him until dawn. He noticed an |
| "overpowering stench" in his clothes and hair, and threw away his |
| clothes. Three nights later he smelt the same odor again, and in the |
| morning found a fungus like growth similar to "a cluster of several |
| flesh colored heads looking at me;" he said they "had teeth, big |
| eyes, a wide mouth, and pointed ears," and looked "like the devil |
| looking creature" he saw on Blount Island. (Sources: Lloyd Brown, The |
| Jacksonville Journal, January 28, 1974; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1972-05, citing |

| precise V formation of 10-15 bright glowing orange disc-shaped |
| objects, flying at 31,000 feet altitude. (Sources: Bob Gribble, MUFON |
| UFO Journal, January 1989, p. 22; Richard F. Haines, Project Delta: A |
| Study of Multiple UFO, p. 64; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, |

| |
| 1976 - M. Claude Cretin, while driving at 9:45 p.m. between Bouze and |
| Beaune, Cote D’Or department, France saw a searchlight beam flash |
| three times. He then noticed a humanoid being standing in the bushes |
| about 20 feet away beside the road. The being was wearing a diving |
| suit of yellow-orange color with a round-topped helmet and a |
| rectangular face plate. Atop the helmet was a whitish light. He could |
| only make out the upper portion of the figure because the bushes |
| blocked his view. After driving on, he went and notified the police, |
| who investigated on the following day and found freshly broken |
| branches at the site. (Sources: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |
| Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1976-21 (A1451); Alain Gamard, |
| UFO Register, Volume 7, p. 44, citing Le Bien Public, March 24, |

| several minutes, only 120 feet overhead. Two police constables, |
| Berwyn Jones and Nevil Hughes, also witnessed the phenomenon together |
| with several other independent witnesses. The object was a dark |
| metallic color, and it emitted a strong beam of light. It flew off to |
| the southeast of the valley. (Source: FSR, March 1979; Gary |
| Heseltine, UFO Magazine (UK), July 2003, p. 9). |
| |
| 1981 - At 4:30 p.m. a police patrol car stalled in Toulouse, |
| Haute-Garonne, France when it encountered a cigar-shaped UFO. The |
| five meter long object had portholes, and was hovering four |
| meters over a field. It moved over the road, then turned and flew |
| away toward the east. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case |
| # 14165, citing Robert Roussel, OVNI, Verites Cachees, p. 151). |
| |

| 1991 - On January 13, 1991 border guard Istvan Balogh woke up in his |
| bedroom in Oroshaza, Hungary and heard a loud booming voice repeat |
| three times, "We will meet soon." The voice had a metallic quality to |
| it. On this date he had just returned from the movies at 1:15 a.m., |
| and had stepped out on his terrace when he saw a small gray |
| disc-shaped object, four meters in height and two meters in width. As |
| he stared at the object a bright beam of light struck him. His next |
| conscious memory was onboard a craft. He was inside a room with a |
| window about 1 meter in diameter. He was then approached by two |
| human-like figures with 3-digit hands and skin with a greenish |
| complexion, wearing black uniforms. They communicated telepathically |
| with him, telling him that they came from a world that was 15 million |
| light years from earth. They were able to travel such vast distance |
| using dimensional portals. He remembered seeing an illuminated |
| moon-like crater and a pyramid. He was eventually returned to his |
| home at 2:00 a.m. He went and reported his story at the hospital, and |
| as a result he was later fired from his job as a border guard. |
