|
| 1947 - A flaming object fell into the sea off the shore of San Diego, |
|
|||
|
| California. An investigation by the U.S. Coast Guard found no missing |
|
|||
|
| aircraft nor floating debris. (Source: Harold Wilkins, Flying Saucers |

| Project Blue Book as a "reliable source" reported sighting two large, |
|
|||
|
| round glowing objects and three smaller, internally lit objects. The |
|
|||
|
| two large objects hovered for one minute and then moved, while the |
|
|||
|
| three smaller objects came from behind or from within the two larger |
|
|||
|
| objects, and all shot upward and away. (Source: Don Berliner, Project |

| France at 9:15 p.m. It came to the ground, lost its brightness, and |
|
|||
|
| remained in one spot for approximately 40 seconds. It was reported to |
|
|||
|
| be about the size of a small bus, and there was a figure standing in |
|
|||
|
| front of it. The object rose and took on the appearance of a red |
|
|||
|
| ball. (Sources: Le Parisien, September 23, 1954; Aime Michel, Flying |

|
|||
|
| 1954 - In the North Atlantic on Santa Maria Island in the Azores, at |
|
|||
|
| 11:00 p.m. Vitorino Monteiro, an airport guard at Santa Maria |
|
|||
|
| Airport, saw a bluish metallic pecan shaped object 5’ x 10’ land on |
|
|||
|
| 4 legs, with a hum or whine. In its nose was an orange light. There |
|
|||
|
| was a Plexiglas type section in the forward end, which contained the |
|
|||
|
| pilot. There were four pole-like appendages, two at each end, which |
|
|||
|
| supported parallel aerials. A blond man 5’10” tall, wearing a gray |
|
|||
|
| aviator suit got out of a door located in the Plexiglas section, he |
|
|||
|
| approached the witness & spoke in an unknown language; he understood |
|
|||
|
| neither Portuguese nor French. He patted the guard’s shoulder, got |
|
|||
|
| back into his craft, fastened safety belts, and took off, turning |
|
|||
|
| almost straight up. (Sources: Jacques & Janine Vallee, Challenge to |

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1954 - Late on this night two men, Srs. Atencio and Garcia, watched a |
|
|||
|
| luminous object in the sky for about an hour as they waited for |
|
|||
|
| roadside assistance next to their stranded vehicle that they had |
|
|||
|
| driven into a ditch. Later, they saw a luminous craft, which |
|
|||
|
| resembled a full moon, land behind a grove near Monte-Brandsen, |
|
|||
|
| Buenos Aires province, Argentina. Two one-meter tall dwarves dressed |
|
|||
|
| in white with big silver helmets got out and walked in their |
|
|||
|
| direction. When they saw the two frightened witnesses they glided |
|
|||
|
| back in the direction of the craft, which promptly took off fast. |

|
|||
|
| coke bottle without the neck. It was described as translucent and |
|
|||
|
| fluorescent. It made four 5-10 second passes over the airbase from |
|
|||
|
| north to south, with 4-5 minutes between passes. (Sources: Project |

|||
|
| 1963 - A metallic cone was seen near the ground on a farm in Fano, |
|
|||
|
| Marche, Italy at 11:30 a.m. A tube extended from the object and |
|
|||
|
| scraped the ground with fast movements. The object made a whistling |
|
|||
|
| sound. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 6407, citing |

|
|||
|
| Comodoro Rivadavia, Chubut province, Argentina flying in a curved |
|
|||
|
| trajectory out to sea. They gained altitude, but then suddenly dipped |
|
|||
|
| and plunged into the sea. (Sources: GEPA Phenomenes Spatiaux, |
|
|||

|||
|
| 1965 - At 4:30 p.m. a young farm woman saw an object land |
|
|||
|
| in Pichaca, Peru and six dwarves, 80 cm tall, emerged from it. They |
|
|||
|
| wore very shiny white suits that emitted flashes of light, and |
|
|||
|
| "walked like ducks." She hid during the observation, and noted that |
|
|||
|
| they spoke in a language she could not understand. After their |
|
|||
|
| departure, a liquid resembling vinegar or oil was found on the |
|
|||
|
| ground. (Sources: P. M. H. Edwards, FSR, May-June 1970, p. 23; Coral |

|
|||
|
| hospitalized for shock. (Source: Gordon I. R. Lore, Jr., Strange |
|
|||

|
|||
|
| 1966 - A huge cone-shaped UFO paced a private aircraft being flown by |
|
|||
|
| J. O'Connor over Sebring, Florida at 10:00 a.m. The object made a |
|
|||
|
| "singing" noise. At first the object descended, then followed the |
|
|||
|
| aircraft, and finally accelerated up and away at high speed. The |
|
|||
|
| encounter lasted 17 minutes. (Source: NICAP UFO Investigator, October |
|
|||
|
| 1966, p. 4; Robert Gribble, MUFON UFO Journal, September 1991, |

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1966 - A yellow-orange domed disc with pulsating white lights around |
|
|||
|
| the rim, and a red searchlight directed at the ground, was seen in a |
|
|||
|
| close encounter in Randlett, Uintah County, Utah at 8:30 p.m. by P. |
|
|||
|
| Sireech. The witness experienced a levitation effect. (Source: Frank |

|||
|
| 1968 - A disc-shaped object was seen low over a courtyard in Duque |
|
|||
|
| de Caxias, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil at around 1:00 a.m. Three |
|
|||
|
| beams of light came down from the object, and human-looking beings |
|
|||
|
| appeared inside each beam. All ascended back up to the craft through |
|
|||
|
| the same method after a minute. (Sources: Irene Granchi, UFO |

|||
|
| 1970 - A disc-shaped object, two meters in diameter, buzzed a car |
|
|||
|
| driving on a road in Alijo, Portugal at 10:30 a.m. Two 5-foot-tall |
|
|||
|
| beings wearing backpacks with aerials were seen near a landed object |
|
|||
|
| on the road. (Source: Victor Lourenco, PORTUCAT: Portugal UFO |

|
| 1970 - At 6:30 p.m. a bright red-orange ball of light descended |
|
|||
|
| slowly behind some trees in Beverly, Massachusetts and landed |
|
|||
|
| remotely near a golf course. It appeared to have spikes or rays |
|
|||
|
| sticking out that also glowed a red-orange color. (Source: Raymond E. |

|
|||
|
| 1971 - At 1:45 a.m. Osvaldo Nestor D'Annunzio, age 19, was returning |
|
|||
|
| by truck along an isolated road from a local ranch in Estacion Gil, |
|
|||
|
| near Bahia Blanca, Buenos Aires, Argentina when he noticed a bright |
|
|||
|
| white object quickly approaching him at high speed. The object |
|
|||
|
| rapidly approached the ground in an unnatural manner by making a very |
|
|||
|
| wide curve. As the object got closer it looked more like a reddish, |
|
|||
|
| triangular light. When it came even closer it changed into a |
|
|||
|
| top-shaped craft that emitted a cloud of red and white flame. The |
|
|||
|
| craft swung from right to left in a descending pendulum trajectory, |
|
|||
|
| finally slipping behind the tops of some nearby trees near the edge |
|
|||
|
| of the road. Once the object went behind the trees, a powerful |
|
|||
|
| reddish glow transformed the night into day, and he felt heat |
|
|||
|
| emanating from the object. At that moment he blacked out. |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| When he recovered consciousness he saw the UFO ascending, and it |
|
|||
|
| disappeared behind a nearby eucalyptus forest. He did not know how |
|
|||
|
| long he had been unconscious. Upon arriving home, D'Annunzio felt |
|
|||
|
| a paralysis in both his arms. He could walk, but his arms became so |
|
|||
|
| completely paralyzed that he could not use them to open the door, and |
|
|||
|
| he had to kick the door to attract attention. He was immediately |
|
|||
|
| rushed to a local military hospital for treatment. His paralysis |
|
|||
|
| continued until four p.m. the next afternoon.For the next seven |
|
|||
|
| months he suffered from paralysis in his arms, starting at midnight |
|
|||
|
| and lasting until early in the morning. He also suffered facial and |
|
|||
|
| scalp burns. Later he had further memories of the incident, recalling |
|
|||
|
| that he saw numerous cows and sheep standing strangely still at the |
|
|||
|
| edge of the road as the UFO descended, and the craft seemed to have |
|
|||
|
| split in two as it disappeared behind the trees. He further described |
|
|||
|
| the UFO as shaped like a child's top, metallic blue in color, and |
|
|||
|
| encased in a red glow with a flame shooting from the bottom. It was |
|
|||
|
| about three meters in length. |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| Other witnesses in the area reported seeing the same or a similar UFO |
|
|||
|
| flying low over the area, including a man who reported vehicle |
|
|||
|
| interference as a result of the passage of the object. Later, local |
|
|||
|
| UFO investigators discovered dozens of cows and sheep dead and |
|
|||
|
| scorched alongside the road. Using a Geiger counter they measured a |
|
|||
|
| high level of radioactivity in certain areas. In the place where the |
|
|||
|
| object had descended they also found a burned circular area of grass |
|
|||
|
| about 10 meters in diameter. In addition, several metal telephone |
|
|||
|
| lines in the area were found severed along what appeared to be the |
|
|||
|
| object's trajectory. A last unusual detail is that D'Annunzio |
|
|||
|
| apparently managed to drive the last eight kilometers in only two |
|
|||
|
| minutes, so some levitation and translocation may have been involved. |

|
|||
|
| sighted at 33,000 feet altitude from a DC-9 airliner flying 40 miles |
|

|
|||
|
| engulfed in a cloud of blackness and then surrounded by intense |
|
|||
|
| vertical beams of light. The car was levitated and transported beyond |
|
|||
|
| its destination, and the driver felt a sensation of high atmospheric |
|
|||
|
| pressure. When the beams vanished, the driver saw a black object 1000 |
|
|||
|
| meters away rise from a field and fly off toward the south. (Sources: |

|
| 1973 - On the 59th day of flight the three-man crew in orbit in outer |
|
|||
|
| space aboard Skylab III saw and photographed a strange red object |
|
|||
|
| over the southwestern Indian Ocean. It was not more than 30-50 |
|
|||
|
| nautical miles from them. Alan Bean, Owen Garriott and Jack Lousman |
|
|||
|
| reported that the object was brighter than any of the planets. |
|
|||
|
| (Source: www.nicap.org/SkylabIIIdir.htm). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1973 - Julian Garside was riding home from work at night on a |
|
|||
|
| friend's motorbike near Halifax, Yorkshire, England when the two |
|
|||
|
| young men saw three bright triangular lights, or shapes, gliding |
|
|||
|
| uphill through the woods near the road. They stopped and, out of |
|
|||
|
| curiosity, decided to follow. The shapes sped up and the boys noticed |
|
|||
|
| an odor like burning oil. When they reached the top of the hill, a |
|
|||
|
| quarter mile from the road, the figures had vanished; above them, |
|
|||
|
| however, they observed a small, round orange light, like a |
|
|||
|
| road-crossing beacon. It vanished in about a minute. There had been |
|
|||
|
| no path through the woods, and the three objects (or figures) |
|
|||
|
| appeared to glide straight through the undergrowth, leaving no |
|
|||
|
| traces. The odor of oil was the only trace left behind. (Source: |

|
|||
|
| 1973 - A series of reports occurred in Sidney, North Carolina |
|
|||
|
| starting on September 20. Though several people reported seeing |
|
|||
|
| something, the main witnesses were members of the Williamson family |
|
|||
|
| from the town of Sidney. They saw at least one humanoid with large |
|
|||
|
| red glowing eyes, a gray face, long hair, pointed ears, and a hooked |
|
|||
|
| nose. It was dressed in a brown shirt and black pants and had a small |
|
|||
|
| brown cap on its head. It walked with a limp and had one hand |
|
|||
|
| missing. It was said to leave no tracks and to leap 50-60 feet in a |
|
|||
|
| single bound. It had a metal medallion on its chest, which was said |
|
|||
|
| to be used for communication and disappearing. (Source: David F. Webb |

|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1975 - At 12:40 a.m. a glowing orb of light hovered near two TV |
|
|||
|
| towers in St.-Josse-Ten-Noode, Belgium for three minutes, then moved |
|
|||
|
| away against the wind. A perfectly ovoid-shaped cloud lit from inside |
|
|||
|
| hovered over the airport in Zaventem, Belgium for over an hour, |
|
|||
|
| beginning at 5:30 p.m. It was viewed through binoculars by several |
|
|||
|
| witnesses. At 7:50 p.m. a bright star-like object zigzagged over La |
|
|||
|
| Hulpe, Belgium then flew off straight toward the south-southwest. At |
|
|||
|
| 9:30 p.m. three nocturnal lights in a triangle formation changed into |
|
|||
|
| a row formation, then chased each other over Etterbeek, Belgium. They |
|
|||
|
| later regrouped. (Source: Inforespace, May 1977). |
|

|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1976 - A witness was on his terrace in Digne, Basses-Alpes |
|
|||
|
| department, France at 10:00 p.m. when he noticed a luminous "cabin" |
|
|||
|
| shaped object that was hovering about 200 meters away and 100 meters |
|
|||
|
| above the ground. The object was 12 feet square and 6 feet high, and |
|
|||
|
| it was the color of an incandescent lamp. No additional structure |
|

| 1979 - Miroslaw Goralski and Krzysztof Kobus had been working in |
|
|||
|
| their garden in Sztum, Poland late in the evening and at 9 p.m. were |
|
|||
|
| cleaning their tools when a UFO descended abruptly into their |
|
|||
|
| enclosure. One witness described the UFO as resembling a "ring," and |
|
|||
|
| the other--who saw it from a different angle--said it looked like |
|
|||
|
| "two silver deltas connected by a cross." Both men experienced a high |
|
|||
|
| frequency squeaking sound in their heads. As they approached to |
|
|||
|
| investigate they were engulfed by a dense white "fog" and illuminated |
|
|||
|
| by bright light. They both felt inertial effects as if rising up into |
|
|||
|
| the air at high speed. Kobus propped himself against a soft object |
|
|||
|
| like an "armchair," which later vanished, and he experienced a |
|
|||
|
| kaleidoscope of colors and other odd sensations as if thoughts were |
|
|||
|
| flowing into his brain from an external source. Goralski asked |
|
|||
|
| questions of what he supposed were unseen entities, and obtained |
|
|||
|
| partial answers in an unspecific fashion. "What is matter?" he asked, |
|
|||
|
| and the answer he received was, "The most important attribute of |
|
|||
|
| matter is its ability to pervade through other matter." Goralski |
|
|||
|
| leaned over to the edge of the "fog" and could clearly see the town |
|
|||
|
| below. He experienced a visual display like a "time tunnel," |
|
|||
|
| including people in costumes of bygone days. Suddenly they fell, as |
|
|||
|
| if from a height of about 30 cm, and landed back in the garden. |
|
|||
|
| Goralski ran home, arriving there at 9:30 p.m.. The witnesses were |
|
|||
|
| administered psychological test, that indicated their personalities |
|
|||
|
| were normal. (Sources: Emilia Popik, MUFON UFO Journal, August 1980, |
