Jose C. | | Higgins saw two figures through a window inside the craft. Later | | three beings in shiny clothes and translucent suits, with oversized | | baldheads, huge round eyes, no eyelashes or eyebrows, and a metal box | | on their back, emerged from the craft. They were over two meters (6.6 | | feet) tall. They drew a sketch of the solar system and pointed to | | Uranus as if to suggest that was their point of origin.

Pereira, | | Les Extra-Terrestres, citing O Cruzeiro, November 13, 1954). | | | | 1947 - On this day a private pilot named Jenssen, flying at 6000 feet | | over Morristown, New Jersey encountered a shaft of light from above. | | The aircraft's engine faltered, then died, but the plane maintained | | its altitude. He felt a prickling sensation and saw a metallic disc | | above and ahead of him. He was able to re-start the plane by putting | | the nose down when he got control back. (Sources: Harold T. Wilkins, | | Flying Saucers on the Attack, p. 70; Leonard G. Cramp, Piece for a | | Jig-Saw, p. 318). | | | | 1949 - At 11:40 a.m. two people fishing in a flooded quarry north of | | Delphi, Indiana saw two 40-foot long metallic UFOs circle and | | maneuver at 1500 feet altitude for three hours. There was also a | | third witness. (Sources: Project Blue Book, July 1949; Larry Hatch, U | | computer database, case 1428; Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1949 | | (Volume 2), p. 12). | | | | 1952 - At two o'clock in the morning a witness in Springfield, | | Massachusetts reported a silent orange glowing ovoid object | | maneuvering in the sky in a T pattern for 40 minutes. At 2:15 a.m. a | | Ground Observer Corp volunteer in Nahant, Massachusetts named | | Armpriester sighting two disc-shaped objects that flew to the | | northwest at 1500 feet altitude, circled Bird Rock, then flew off to | | the southeast.

They then repeated this staircase | | maneuver. The sighting lasted two minutes. (Source: Larry Hatch, U | | computer database, case 2434; Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1952 | | (Volume 9), p. 20). | | | | 1952 - At 3:50 a.m. an F-94 interceptor obtained a radar lock-on | | while chasing a blue-green light, which circled Braintree, | | Massachusetts at high speed. (Sources: Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence | | (Volume I), p. 132; Donald E. Keyhoe, Flying Saucers from Outer | | Space, p. 97). | | | | 1952 - At 8:20 p.m. local time a blue green ball of light approached | | an F-94 jet flying over the ocean east of Misawa AFB in Japan. The | | jet gave pursuit, but the UFO suddently shot straight up. (Sources: | | Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 17; Loren E. Gross, | | UFOs: A History. 1952: July 21st-July 31st, p. 13). | | | | 1952 - At 9:10 p.m. three prison guards in Norfolk, Virginia watched | | a silent, circular shadow overhead. It shot off at high speed in less | | than a minute. (Source: Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1952: July | | 21st-July 31st, p. 16). | | | | 1952 - At 9:15 p.m. a group of evening shift aircraft workers in | | Culver City, California watched a silvery elliptical object flying | | over their aircraft plant. It emitted two small discs, which later | | returned to the main object. The sighting lasted several minutes. | | (Sources: Donald E. Keyhoe, Flying Saucers from Outer Space, p. 156; | | Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1952: July 21st-July 31st, p. 60; | | Richard F. Haines, Project Delta: A Study of Multiple UFO, p. 182). | | | | 1956 - Springfield, Massachusetts - Ms. Virginia Maratea and her | | sister were sitting on the back porch of her sister's home in the | | evening, facing west, when suddenly a glowing red object came into | | view. The object was shaped like a barbell, with two bulbous spheres | | on each end connected by an amorphous bar. The ends scintillated and | | were a fiery red, while the part in the center was dimly visible. She | | estimated the size as that of a large bomber at high altitude. | | (Source: Thomas Olsen, Reference for Outstanding UFO Reports, p. 48). | | | | 1959 - A silver metallic disc was seen flying in an elliptical orbit | | in the sky over Bellevue, Washington at noon. There was no wind at | | the time. It vanished in an instant. (Sources: Larry Hatch, U | | computer database, case 5779; Loren E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of | | the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1959: July-September, p. 41). | | | | 1966 - At 2:30 a.m. four UFOs where seen near the Shilo Royal Canadian | | AF airbase in Manitoba. One was at so low an altitude that it seemed | | about to land. (Source: Brad Steiger and Joan Whritenour, Flying | | Saucers are Hostile, p. 69). | | | | 1968 - In Bauru, Sao Paulo state, Brazil a night watchman named | | Oliveira was on duty at the Central Electric Power Station at 1:00 | | a.m. when he saw a helmeted figure. Suspecting it was a criminal | | intruder, he tried to strike him with a metal crowbar but the figure | | dodged the blows and was soon joined by two other accomplices. They | | quickly overpowered the guard. One of the men, who, unlike the | | others, was dressed in yellow coveralls, uttered some unintelligible | | words. The security guard called out for help, at which point the | | three men boarded a gray colored, unlighted vehicle the size of a | | Volkswagen station wagon, and flew off into the air. The men were | | about the same size as the witness, about five foot five inches in | | height. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, November-December 1968, p. 1; Jader | | U. Pereira, Les Extra-Terrestres, p. 208, citing SBEDV; Walter | | Buhler, FSR Case Histories, December 1970, p. 11; David F. Webb & Ted | | Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1968-49 | | (A0953), citing APRO Bulletin). | | | | 1968 - At 5:40 p.m. a metallic object dove into the sea at Playa | | Penuelas, Chile. It trailed flames and smoke as it plunged downward. | | At 7:30 p.m. a brilliant blue object zigzagged through the sky over | | Palquebudis, Chile emitting orange sparks. (Source: Roberto Enrique | | Banchs, Las Evidencias del Fenomeno OVNI; Larry Hatch, U computer | | database). | | | | 1969 - On this night a UFO stopped a truck and levitated a car with | | four occupants in Paulo Lopes, Santa Catarina state, Brazil. The car | | was set down a considerable distance far ahead in what seemed like an | | instant. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, July-August 1969; Geoffrey Falla, | | BUFORA Vehicle Interference Project Report, p. 53). | | | | 1971 - In Manicouagan, Quebec an electrical power outage was | | connected to UFO sightings that evening. (Source: Claude MacDuff, FSR | | Case Histories, December 1973, p. 2). | | | | 1972 - At 4:10 a.m. in Umkomaas, Kwa-Zulu Natal province, South | | Africa Mr. and Mrs. Marco took two photographs of a of luminous | | object in the night sky. They also viewed the object through field | | glasses. In one of the photographs the object seems to be shaped like | | a domed disc. The UFO flew out to sea fast, toward the southeast. | | (Sources: Phillipp J. Human, FSR, September-October 1972, p. 3; FSR, | | March 1973, p. 30). | | | | 1972 - A large cylindrical UFO with three smaller satellite discs was | | sighted in Gstaad, Switzerland on this night. All UFOs suddenly | | vanished. (Source: J. Bernard Delair, UFO Register, volume 9 (1978)). | | | | 1977 - At 12:45 a.m. a 26-year old woman and her 13-year-old niece | | looked out their bedroom window in Lindley, New York before retiring | | and saw 11 or 12 white lights in a "dipper" shaped formation that | | were moving about in the sky. One bright light appeared on a hill 300 | | yards away. They could hear a whooshing sound, then two lights rose | | in the air. Then next heard footsteps from the creek, about 100 yards | | away, and saw two small figures floating up and down in front of a | | tree by the creek. After this they saw several more figures, at | | various spots, carrying what seemed to be flashlights. They wore | | tight-fitting, "skin diver" suits with glowing green belts. | | | | A luminous red rectangular object was seen by one of the witnesses. It | | approached the creek, and then backed away. At this point both | | witnesses developed severe headaches. They then saw a figure on a | | distant hill shining a light on a tombstone there, and the stone | | seemed to rise up into the air and move back and forth. A figure | | taller than the others, who were less than four feet tall, stood near | | the light on the hill and called out with an "ooh, ooh" signal. The | | others all approached him and, five minutes later, deployed back into | | adjacent fields. One of them approached the house. He came under the | | second story window and dropped to the ground, as if to conceal | | himself, he then approached the door and rattled the handle. By this | | time, 3:45 a.m., the older witness had called her mother, who | | notified the state police. All of the lights and figures disappeared | | just prior to the arrival of the police, the lights in the sky being | | indistinguishable from stars. Both witnesses believed only an hour | | had passed but actually over three hours had elapsed. They complained | | of burning eyes and headaches that lasted for two days. Footprints | | were found in the area. (Sources: International UFO Reporter, August | | 1977, p. 36; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of | | Humanoid Reports, case 1977-37 (A1742), citing Ted Phillips, Douglas | | Dains, & Dr Gary Truce for CUFOS). | | | | 1982 - At two a.m. four 16 year olds--with the last names Lebeau, | | Cousineau, and Labre--saw an intense beam of white light from a | | multi-colored UFO in a field in Ste-Dorothee, near Laval, Quebec. | | Shortly later they heard beeping, and when they shone a spotlight in | | the direction of the noise it revealed a five to six foot tall being | | with a large brown head and orange eyes. They all suffered from | | intense stomach pain. (Sources: Richard F. Haines, CE5: Close | | Encounters of the Fifth Kind, p. 210; FSR, November 28, 1982). | | | | 1987 - In the middle of the day six spheres made 90 degree turns in | | the sky in broad daylight over West Pensacola, Florida. (Source: | | Timothy Good, The UFO Report 1990, p. 198). | | | | 1990 - At 11:30 p.m. the witness had stepped out of his house in | | Rybnik, Poland and noticed that his dog had broken the chain that he | | had been tied up to. Looking up, he noticed a powerful beam of white | | light in the sky and a small red light moving underneath it. The | | white beam of light moved around erratically as if searching. The | | witness signaled the beam of light with his flashlight several times | | and it appeared to answer him by shining on the highway directly in | | front of him. He then became frightened and hid behind a light pole. | | The white beam of light approached and struck him in the leg. He ran | | to a nearby house but it was deserted and locked, so he then ran back | | to the road. The object had now come closer to the ground, and a red | | light and a ladder were now visible. On the ladder stood a humanoid | | figure, but no details could be seen because of the glare from a | | nearby streetlight. The being entered the object, which he described | | as cigar shaped. The ladder was drawn up and the red light went out. | | The object then left the area. (Sources: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue | | #309; Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1990, case # 1652, | | citing Bronislaw Rzepecki, Australian UFO Bulletin). | | | | 1992 - At 7:30 a.m. Peter Khoury was in bed in Sydney, New South | | Wales, Australia as a result of a recent work injury and was on pain | | medication. Suddenly he was wide awake and sat up in bed, because | | there were two humanoid females sitting on the bed, both entirely | | naked. The two women looked very human in nearly every detail. They | | had well-proportioned adult bodies. One looked Asian, with straight | | dark shoulder length hair and dark eyes. The other looked perhaps | | Scandinavian, with light colored, possibly blue eyes and long blond | | hair that fell half way down her back. To Khoury, the hair looked | | very exotic. Their faces were somewhat odd--not unattractive, but too | | chiseled--with high cheekbones and eyes that were two or three times | | larger than normal. Khoury especially noticed the blonde-haired | | woman. Her face was long, very long. The blonde, who was in a | | kneeling position on his bed, seemed to be in charge. Khoury thought | | that she was communicating telepathically with the dark-haired woman, | | who was sitting with her legs partly folded under her. Their facial | | expressions were almost entirely blank. | | | | Stunned by their surprise appearance, Peter was unable to react as | | the blond woman suddenly reached out with both her hands and cupped | | the back of his head, drawing his face toward her breasts. He | | resisted. Apparently very strong, she pulled harder. She pulled him | | forward and his mouth was placed on one of her nipples, and he bit | | it. A piece of her nipple came loose in his teeth, but the blond | | woman did not cry out. She seemed shocked or confused and looked at | | the Asian woman, then back at the witness. Involuntarily, Khoury | | swallowed the small fragment in his mouth. It caught in his throat | | and he went into a coughing fit. The two women suddenly simply | | disappeared. Feeling an urge to go to the bathroom, he realized his | | penis felt very painful. Pulling back the foreskin he found two thin | | blond strands of hair wrapped tightly around it. He kept the hair | | samples for genetic analysis. The DNA analysis showed that the hair | | was human, but the genome testing suggested that the closest match | | would be a cross breeding of someone from Iceland with someone from | | Japan, a rare occurrence. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid | | Contact Database 1992, case # 3515, citing Bill Chalker, | | International UFO Reporter). | | | | 1995 - At eleven p.m. a black, silent, manta ray shaped flying object | | passed overhead in Snake River, Idaho. It had black wings that | | appeared to "ripple." There was no mention of lights on the UFO in | | the report. (Source: Curt Sutherly, UFO Mysteries: A Reporter Seeks | | the Truth, p. 195, citing the Idaho Statesman, February 25, 1996). | | | | 1997 - In Los Angeles, California a woman reported seeing a large | | metallic hat-shaped object with several portholes around the rim, | | hovering between two buildings at 1:30 p.m. She said it made no | | sound, and she also reported she received a telepathic message from | | it. Several nights later she remembered being in a round room with | | windows. She had a "guide" on board the craft, who was a handsome | | blond haired man with a bare chest. She remembered looking down on | | the San Bernardino Mountains, but that was all that she could recall | | of the possible abduction experience. (Sources: Peter Davenport, | | National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, July 1997 archive; Albert S. | | Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1997, case # 3585, citing NUFORC). | | | | 1997 - During this afternoon several locals of Vegas de Diuca, Chile | | including Jose and Nicolasa Estrada witnessed a small robotic figure | | that moved in quick jerky jumps on a nearby hill. It was reddish | | yellow in color. It would take quick short flights over the fields | | then fall down and land. It seemed to have a round head with an | | eye-like hole in the center. It had a tail like protrusion on its | | rear and two antennas like protrusions on top. Two of the witnesses, | | one armed with a shotgun, approached to within ten meters of the | | figure. Around the same time other locals reported seeing slow moving | | lights low over the area. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid | | Contact Database 1997, case # 3903, citing UFOPR). | | | | 1997 - At 9:30 p.m. a large orange object with a tail fanning out | | from it was seen in Tooele, Utah. It just faded away. (Source: Peter | | Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, July 1997 | | archive). | | | | 1999 - A craft that at first looked like a mobile home took off | | vertically from a field in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania at 11:30 | | p.m., and then executed a turn. It made a humming sound, shook, and | | then went straight up. (Source: George Filer, Filers' Files, 1999, | | (volume 9, issue 34)). | | | | 2001 - At 9:30 p.m. young mother was breastfeeding her baby in her | | fourth floor apartment in Amasya, Turkey when she turned her head and | | saw a strange looking humanoid standing in front of the balcony door | | and curtain. After a few seconds the humanoid disappeared. She | | described it as about 1.05 meters in height, with very big jet-black | | eyes, slanting up. His head was oval-shaped and bald. His color was | | gray like smoke. No other details were noted because of the witness | | state of panic and the short duration of the encounter. There were | | unconfirmed reports of UFO's seen in the area that night. (Source: | | Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 2001, citing TUVPO). | | | | Written by Donald A.
