|
| 1951 - Ladd AFB, Alaska. At 7:10 a.m. USAF Sgt. J. B. Sells watched a |
|
|||
|
| dull gray metallic object, estimated to be 120 feet long and 10-12 |
|
|||
|
| feet thick. The UFO hovered, puffed smoke, and sped away after about |
|
|||
|
| 90 seconds. (Source: Don Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO Unknowns). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1954 - Architect R.M. Pierce, Marine Engineer George Avery and one |
|
|||
|
| other witness sighted a silver flying disc at 2:30 p.m. in |
|
|||
|
| Newburyport, Massachusetts. It had a white trail and made a loud |
|
|||
|
| roaring noise for 30-60 seconds. (Source: Don Berliner, Project |
|
|||
|
| Bluebook UFO Unknowns). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1966 - Hanna City, Illinois - An oval object about 15-20 feet in |
|
|||
|
| diameter came within three meters of a car around 8:00 p.m. There was |
|
|||
|
| interference on the car radio as it passed nearby. The object was |
|
|||
|
| glowing red with a dome on top and it made a strange "signal-like" |
|
|||
|
| noise. It eventually moved off to the north. (Sources: Jacques |

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1967 - At 6:00 p.m. local time a low flying, bullet-shaped object |
|
|||
|
| flew over Dublin Airport, Ireland. It gave off blue and yellow |
|
|||
|
| flashes. (Sources: NICAP files, press clipping dated February 27, |

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1967 - One hour later, a sound like a car without a muffler woke up a |
|
|||
|
| school teacher and her husband in Marlboro, Massachusetts at two |
|
|||
|
| o'clock in the morning EST. They looked outside and saw a white |
|
|||
|
| glowing egg-shaped object with a red light on each side in the |
|
|||
|
| sky, swinging back-and-forth in a pendulum motion making a purring |
|
|||
|
| sound. At 6:30 p.m. five people in Oxford, Massachusetts, including a |
|
|||
|
| newspaper reporter, saw a bright amber oval-shaped object which at |
|
|||
|
| times turned red. The UFO alternately hovered and moved at high |
|
|||
|
| speed. The reporter took a photograph of the object. (Sources: (1) |

|
|||
|
| 1967 - At 3:45 p.m. EST a married couple named Young in Abbotsford, |
|
|||
|
| Pennsylvania saw a small gray object approach just above the treetops |
|
|||
|
| and hover for about two minutes, glowing like white-hot metal and |
|
|||
|
| wobbling while stationary. The object moved slowly across the |
|
|||
|
| highway, stopped, then finally moved away to the west-southwest and |
|
|||
|
| disappeared after five minutes. (Source: NICAP report form dated |
|
|||
|
| March 28, 1967). |
|
|||
|
| 1967 - At 7:30 p.m. nine witnesses including four policemen |
|
|||
|
| in Wiarton, southeastern Ontario, Canada saw a bright shining |
|
|||
|
| object with body lights changing color from white to green. The |
|
|||
|
| UFO appeared to have streamers of light around it. It flitted |
|
|||
|
| about, hovered, and then disappeared. (Sources: London (ON) Free |

|||
|
| Press, February 27, 1967; NICAP files; Gene Duplantier, Saucers, |
|
|||

|
|||
|
| 1967 - At 7:45 p.m. two policemen, Edie and Border, in Coshocton, |
|
|||
|
| Ohio saw two light-colored saucers of different sizes with associated |
|
|||
|
| red flames. The larger object was stationary and the smaller |
|
|||
|
| satellite object moved about it. The two objects moved in and out of |
|
|||
|
| sight together. Other residents reportedly also had |
|
|||
|
| sightings. (Sources: Dover (OH) Daily Reporter, February 28, |
|

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1968 - An unidentified man in Phoenix, Arizona was awakened at one |
|
|||
|
| a.m. by a sharp knock on his door. "I saw a man standing in my room |
|
|||
|
| at some distance...wearing dark clothing...I couldn't see his |
|
|||
|
| face...he was slender and not tall, perhaps five feet nine. He |
|
|||
|
| changed position a few times...and then he was gone." (Sources: David |

|
|||
|
| 1968 - A huge, hairy creature was seen drinking from a pond in |
|
|||
|
| Curbarsi, Barcelona province, Spain during the daytime. Upon |
|
|||
|
| discovery by the owners of the property the creature fled. It matched |
|
|||
|
| the description by a passing motorist of a large hairy biped seen |
|
|||
|
| crossing the road several days earlier in Hostalrich. (Sources: David |

|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1971 - At 10:30 p.m. Mr. Robert Milcher, age 18, and a 10-year-old |
|
|||
|
| boy in Brooksville, Florida saw a hovering UFO at least 50 feet in |
|
|||
|
| diameter. It had red lights and a searchlight like beam, which |
|
|||
|
| responded to their flashlight signals. Inside a lighted dome were |
|
|||
|
| 6-10 occupants dressed in green coveralls standing around a control |
|
|||
|
| panel. They waved at the witnesses. The two boys felt a numbness and |
|
|||
|
| stinging sensation in their arms and wrists. When the UFO departed, |
|
|||
|
| it emitted a sound like a swarm of bees. (Source: David F. Webb and |
|
|||

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1973 - Helene, age 14, was riding the family snowmobile near |
|
|||
|
| McWaters, Quebec with her two brothers and seven other teenaged |
|
|||
|
| friends, all on snowmobiles, when at around 9 p.m. a giant |
|
|||
|
| "headlight" rose from behind them and flew over, illuminating the |
|
|||
|
| entire landscape. After it had gone, all the boys went off on a race, |
|
|||
|
| leaving Helene behind. The brilliant light source then reappeared and |
|
|||
|
| flew back over her. She estimated it was 60 feet in diameter. |
|
|||
|
| Suddenly its light went out, and Helene thought it must have been a |
|
|||
|
| plane that had crashed somewhere behind her. She turned her |
|
|||
|
| snowmobile around and drove back about 150 meters, then got off and |
|
|||
|
| walked toward a very large dark bulk that she could make out among |
|
|||
|
| some trees. When she was about 50 feet from it a small, cold hand |
|
|||
|
| came from over her shoulder and seized her by the chin, attempting to |
|
|||
|
| drag her backwards. Thinking it must be her younger brother playing a |
|
|||
|
| joke, she broke free and pushed her attacker back so that he fell |
|
|||
|
| down into the snow. Turning to face him, she saw a childlike figure |
|
|||
|
| smaller than her 13-year-old brother sitting in the snow. She ran |
|
|||
|
| back to her snowmobile and grabbed a flashlight, and turned it on the |
|
|||
|
| person who was now walking slowly toward her. She saw it was a being |
|
|||
|
| less than four feet tall, clad in a dark, close fitting uniform with |
|
|||
|
| a "plated" surface, and wearing a helmet covering the head down to |
|
|||
|
| the chin. A visor on the helmet reflected the light from the |
|
|||
|
| flashlight, and the being's enormous eyes shone brightly in the |
|
|||
|
| light, like those of a cat. Terrified, Helene dropped the flashlight, |
|
|||
|
| ran to the snowmobile, and fled on it. She was joined by the other |
|
|||
|
| snowmobilers, who were returning for her. Her left arm was paralyzed, |
|
|||
|
| so she was taken to a doctor at Rouyn, who gave her a sedative. The |
|
|||
|
| next day several people went out to the landing site, where they |
|
|||
|
| found a large patch of snow melted down to the ground. It was 50 feet |
|
|||
|
| in diameter and shaped like a donut. Next to it were the footprints |
|
|||
|
| of two small bipeds, a few yards away from each other. The tracks |
|
|||
|
| were short and wide with a large protruding great toe. (Source: David |
|
|||
|
| F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case |
|
|||
|
| 1973-84, citing Jean Ferguson, Les Humanoides). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1975 - At about 8:45 p.m. a professional man and his companion were |
|
|||
|
| on a fishing holiday at a lakeside camp on Lake Sorrell, Tasmania. |
|
|||
|
| The main witness was also a former Royal Australian Air Force aircrew |
|
|||
|
| member. He saw three glowing objects in the northeast sky, one |
|
|||
|
| smaller than the other two, and watched them for some time since they |
|
|||
|
| appeared unusual. Then he noticed they were not moving in the same |
|
|||
|
| direction as the clouds. Two of the objects moved closer to him and |
|
|||
|
| hovered, then receded, intermittently obscurred by clouds. Each had a |
|
|||
|
| pulsating red light on the underside. The closer object also had a |
|
|||
|
| row of red lights around the rim that were either changing from red |
|
|||
|
| to white or rotating. After several minutes the clouds, which had |
|
|||
|
| temporarily obscurred the UFOs, started to glow and he saw one object |
|
|||
|
| emerge and travel in an easterly direction, stopping over the north |
|
|||
|
| shore of the lake. The second object was visible further to the |
|
|||
|
| north, stationary over Mount Penny. The main object was now very |
|
|||
|
| clearly defined with the red pulsating light very strong. It remained |
|
|||
|
| in the area for 8 to 10 minutes. After a bank of clouds went through |
|
|||
|
| with a passing storm, the object reappeared, glowed brightly, and |
|
|||
|
| suddenly zoomed toward the witnesses "at phenomenal speed." It |
|
|||
|
| stopped abruptly 900 meters away and 150 meters up. A brilliant, |
|
|||
|
| cone-shaped light beam was projected down toward the lake and swept |
|
|||
|
| across the terrain, illuminating the side of the mountain. Then it |
|
|||
|
| swept back across the lake beneath the object and faded out. The |
|
|||
|
| surface of the lake glowed a flourescent blue. The object then shot |
|
|||
|
| away to the northeast "at a colossal speed." The second object sped |
|
|||
|
| off in the same direction at the same time. Radio interference was |
|
|||
|
| reported at the time. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, July 1975, p. 1; FSR, |

|
| 1979 - Ernaldo Camusoni, age 49, was clearing an overgrown field at |
|
|||
|
| the entrance to a farm in Serodino, Santa Fe province, Argentina late |
|
|||
|
| in the evening after 8 p.m. when everything became illuminated behind |
|
|||
|
| him, turning the darkness into day. When he turned around he saw an |
|
|||
|
| approaching object land 40 meters away from him. He tried to make out |
|
|||
|
| what the object looked like, but the light emanating from it was too |
|
|||
|
| intense to capture much detail. The shape was like a truncated cone. |
|
|||
|
| As he approached the object, he saw a strange luminous figure emerge |
|
|||
|
| from the rear of the craft. The figure appeared to be robot-like in |
|
|||
|
| nature, lacking any arms, and it did not move its body when it |
|
|||
|
| walked. Its head appeared to be of normal size, but it had what |
|
|||
|
| appeared to be a trunk-like object coming from the area of the face. |
|
|||
|
| It wore a very shiny outfit. The robot entity walked towards the |
|
|||
|
| witness, approached to within three meters, and stood silently, |
|
|||
|
| seemingly observing the witness. Camusoni didn't feel afraid, but did |
|
|||
|
| feel curiosity towards the strange entity. Apparently the creature |
|
|||
|
| did not want to communicate since it suddenly wheeled around, |
|
|||
|
| returning to the object and disappeared behind it. The craft then |
|
|||
|
| rose up and disappeared at high speed towards the south, making a |
|
|||
|
| rushing sound. The whole encounter lasted five minutes. Ground traces |
|
|||
|
| were found the next day. (Source: UNICAT database, case #601, citing |
|
|||
|
| Oscar Alemanno, Quarta Dimension). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1983 - A mother and daughter named O'Driscoll, driving near the |
|
|||
|
| frozen White Pond in Kent Cliffs, Putnam County, New York at around 8 |
|
|||
|
| p.m. saw a silent, multi-colored 200-300 foot wide boomerang-shaped |
|
|||
|
| object with many lights, at a minimum distance of 100 meters, which |
|
|||
|
| seemed to respond to their thoughts. It had a criss-cross lattice |
|
|||
|
| structure and tubes on its underneath side. Their car radio |
|
|||
|
| experience RF interference. Another independent witness that night |
|
|||
|
| saw probably the same object, a V-shaped array of 50 lights with the |
|
|||
|
| colors amber, red, and blue. (Sources: J. Allen Hynek and Philip |
|
|||

|
|||
|

|
|||
|
| Kind, p. 156). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1984 - Project Hessdalen ends its instrumented study in the Hessdalen |
|
|||
|
| Valley of Norway, near Roros. Nocturnal lights were seen all over the |
|
|||
|
| sky, and appeared to "climb" up the mountains, then flash. Observers |
|
|||
|
| were hit by a spotlight at 3:10 a.m. on this date. (Source: Richard |
|
|||
|
| H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II: A Thirty Year Report, p. 246). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1994 - A witness in a residential area of Rosyth, Fife, Scotland took |
|
|||
|
| two photographs of a saucer-shaped object before he was temporarily |
|
|||
|
| paralyzed and frozen in place. The object hovered close by for 15 |
|
|||
|
| minutes. (Sources: UFO Newspaper Clipping Service, June 1994; Larry |
|
|||
|
| Hatch, U computer database, case 16318). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 1997 - A man was driving to work near Lee, New Hampshire when he saw |
|
|||
|
| four balls of white light zigzag in unison over some nearby power |
|
|||
|
| lines. They then hovered about 50 feet from the ground looking a |
|
|||
|
| little blurry. The witness continued driving east on the road and ten |
|
|||
|
| minutes later saw the same lights again over a bog. At this point he |
|
|||
|
| began to hear voices inside his head. Now having stomach pains, he |
|
|||
|
| heard the voices warn him against studying UFOs. He then asked |
|
|||
|
| several questions, which the voices answered. When he came upon some |
|
|||
|
| large pine trees there was a blinding flash of orange light, and he |
|
|||
|
| felt his vehicle being lifted up. He then apparently lost |
|
|||
|
| consciousness. He woke up an hour later inside his vehicle. (Source: |

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 2000 - Three disc-shaped objects, estimated to be three times the |
|
|||
|
| size of 747s, were sighted flying in a V-shaped formation over |
|
|||
|
| Waterford, Ontario. They made a 90 degree turn together. The sighting |
|
|||
|
| lasted two minutes. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 2000 Canadian UFO Survey, |
|
|||
|
| case 34). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 2006 - In the late afternoon in Toronto, Ontario a witness was asked |
|
|||
|
| by his mother to come outside and check out a strange sight. Together |
|
|||
|
| they witnessed a disc-shaped object with a light underneath. It was |
|
|||
|
| moving slowly through the sky, and appeared to be accompanied by many |
|
|||
|
| conventional aircraft. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 2006 Canadian UFO |
|

|
| Survey, case # 69, citing NUFORC). |
|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 2007 - A motorist driving down the highway in Sacramento, California |
|
|||
|
| at 11:00 a.m. saw a cigar-shaped craft with a red light in the |
|
|||
|
| middle. The sighting lasted 15 seconds. Another cigar-shaped object |
|
|||
|
| was sighted in San Pedro, Los Angeles County, California at 3:48 p.m. |
|
|||
|
| The bottom of the object was red and the rest was white. The second |
|
|||
|
| sighting lasted 30 seconds. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO |

|
|||
|
| |
|
|||
|
| 2008 - At 1:00 a.m. an upside down, white colored V-shaped craft flew |
|
|||
|
| over Long Beach, California. A large cigar-shaped object that spawned |
|
|||
|
| 8 to 10 or more bright saucer-shaped bright luminous objects, flew |
|
|||
|
| over San Fernando, California at 3:30 p.m. At 9:00 p.m. witnesses in |
|
|||
|
| Green Valley, Pima County, Arizona saw a triangular craft over the |
|
|||
|
| hills to the east, far off in the distance. The craft appeared to |
|
|||
|
| remain very stationary, but at times would move. (Source: Peter |
