At 10:30 a.m. John A. | | Petsche, an electrical worker, and another person independently | | witnessed a disc-shaped object, which seemed to land near Tintown, | | Arizona. The disc had a mirror-like surface. (Sources: (1) | | Albuquerque Journal, July 2, 1947; (2) Coral E. Lorenzen, Flying | | Saucers: The Startling Evidence of the Invasion from Outer Space, p. | | 17; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. | | 191). | | | | 1949 - A brass domed-disc with a transparent clear dome was seen at | | only 10 meters altitude in Albera Ligure, Italy at 8:20 p.m. It | | emitted a gaseous cloud of vapor, then flew away over a hill. | | (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 1416). | | | | 1952 - A military pilot named Kelly saw a UFO hover at 6:50 p.m. and | | pulsate a brilliant red over Topeka, Kansas. The shape of the object | | varied from circular to oval in the vertical dimension as the object | | pulsated. A Project Blue Book "unknown."

Gross, | | UFOs: A History. 1952: June-July 20th, p. 27; Kevin Randle, Invasion | | Washington: UFOs over the Capitol, p. 267). | | | | 1956 - Two ball-shaped objects were seen hovering over Mahonoy City, | | Pennsylvania at 8:15 p.m. They glistened brilliantly at the height of | | normal aircraft height, when suddenly they shot straight up | | vertically, leaving behind short vapor trail in their wakes. One of | | the witnesses was a newspaper reporter. (Sources: Loren E. Gross, The | | Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1956: May-July, p. | | 60; Richard F. Haines, Project Delta: A Study of Multiple UFO, p. | | 186). | | | | 1959 - Twenty-four hours after their previous sighting, a UFO | | re-appeared in the same position in the sky over the Boianai Mission | | on Milne Bay, New Guinea, only a little further off. Four men were | | again seen occupied with some activity on top of it. Father William | | Gill waved, and one of the men on the UFO did the same; then all the | | observers waved, and all four UFO occupants appeared to wave back. | | Flashlight signals were answered by movements of the object, which | | oscillated and then came somewhat closer. After this there was no | | further response. After about 90 minutes of visibility some low | | clouds obscured the object. (Sources: Rev. Norman E. G. Crutwell, | | UFOs in the Two Worlds, FSR Special Edition No. 4., p. 35; David F. | | Webb and Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case | | 1959-10, citing FSR Special Issue #4). | | | | 1966 - Cistella, Spain - Three Spanish witnesses named Masso, Crous, | | and Arajil watched two clearly defined, hexagonal cylinders rise into | | the air, approximately 1,800 feet apart from each other. A | | disc-shaped UFO flew into view and positioned itself between the | | cylinders as if to link them. Dense smoke arose, drying the mouths | | and noses of the witnesses the whole day, and one witness felt a wave | | of heat. The strange, three-part structure was visible for several | | minutes before departing at blinding speed. Over an area some ten | | meters across in a potato field all the leaves were brittle and | | yellowish. A branch of a nearby pear tree was newly broken off, | | thrown some distance, and twisted around. (Source: Antonio Ribera, | | FSR, November 1966, pp. 3-4). | | | | 1968 - Three children, Hugo Cesar Messina, Oscar Crespo, and a third | | boy were bicycling in Cerro de las Rosas, Cordoba, Argentina at 5:30 | | p.m. when they were surprised by the appearance of a silvery colored | | object. The UFO had on its lower part a kind of helix, where lights | | of white and sky-blue were revolving. It hovered about 20 meters up | | and 50 meters away from the boys. On the upper part of the object | | appeared a couple, a man and a woman, who floated in the air. They | | were of enormous stature with long white hair, and they wore luminous | | close fitting garments. Holding hands, they began to descend slowly, | | disappearing into the object without any door opening. The luminous | | helix began to rotate at greater speed, and the UFO went away at | | great speed. (Source: David F. Webb and Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: | | Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1968-37, citing Carlos Banchs). | | | | 1970 - At 1:30 a.m. a bright orange disc-shaped object dropped down | | from the sky near some power lines in Galston, Strathclyde, Scotland. | | It emitted a bright beam of light, then flew off to the east. | | (Source: Gordon McKinnon, FSR Case Histories, December 1970, p. 16). | | | | 1970 - At 11:40 a.m. Mr. And Mrs. Aristeu Machado, their five | | daughters, and Mr. Joao Aguiar of Leblon, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil | | watched a grayish metallic object 12-18 feet wide land on the ocean | | 700-1000 yards away, throwing spray up on all sides. It floated 100 | | yards closer to shore and they could see that it had a transparent | | cupola, outside of which were two short, thickset figures wearing | | dark gray metallic coveralls and helmets. After 30-40 minutes the | | object took off nearly horizontally. Underneath it showed red, green, | | and yellow lights. It left behind it a white, floating hoop shaped | | object and a yellow ball, both of which were lost from view as they | | floated toward the shore.

Hall, The UFO | | Evidence, Volume II: A Thirty-Year Report, p. 482). | | | | Sea Landing and Occupant report near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - 1970 | | | | [image] | | | | 1975 - A 25 meter in diameter metallic disc hovered just 15 meters | | above a gasoline service station in Pont-a-Mousson, France at 3:30 | | a.m. It illuminated the ground as bright as day. That night at 11:20 | | p.m. a vertical cylinder hung in the sky at only 10 meters altitude | | in Bouillancourt-la-Bataille, Somme, France. It had two antennae. | | (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, March 1976). | | | | 1982 - A mechanical engineer on an airliner flying northwest of | | Launceston, Tasmania watched a metallic sphere pace the Boeing 737 | | aircraft for two minutes, then ascend, flying off toward the north. | | (Source: Australian Center UFO Studies Catalogue of Reports | | 1978-1982, p. 5). | | | | 1992 - Two witnesses in a mobile home in Raeford, North Carolina were | | rattled and shaken up when a disc-shaped object landed in a field | | nearby. The grass was crushed down where the object had touched down. | | (Source: MUFON UFO Journal, October 1992). | | | | 1994 - Around four o'clock in the morning at least five witnesses | | heard a loud hissing sound in Arad, Romania, and a nearby wheat field | | became lit up by a very bright light. Traian Crisan, a 48-year-old | | shepherd, approached the site and saw a light gliding towards the | | field. He ran to his hut and watched from inside, but then the walls | | and roof of his house began to shake. He then ran outside and | | encountered a strong wind. He next noticed a round hovering object, | | and through a small opening he could see two short men who appeared | | to be holding a tube. Both men had beards--one a long white | | beard--and both had slanted eyes. They also wore headphone-like | | devices on their heads, and held instruments in their hands. The | | nearby sheep panicked and ran when blue flames shot from out of the | | bottom of the craft as it accelerated straight up and disappeared. | | Later that day a flattened circular area of wheat was found at the | | site. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1994, | | case 2282, citing Michael Hesemann, The Cosmic Connection). | | | | 1994 - An "airplane" landed on a jagged peak in Parc de la Mouliere, | | Alpes-Maritime, France in the early afternoon. It was joined by two | | ovoid flying objects. When a witness attempted to videotape the | | event, his camcorder failed to work. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, | | issue # 327). | | | | 1994 - A large dark triangular shaped craft with no lights flew over | | Moffat, Colorado at 11:00 p.m. It flew slowly from the east to the | | west at an estimated 1,000 feet altitude. One witness stated, "It was | | so big, it blotted out the stars!" A smaller craft soon followed the | | first one. (Source: Christopher O'Brien, The Mysterious Valley, p. | | 246). | | | | 1998 - On this night teenager Marisa Pearsall from Cassopolis, | | Michigan found herself on a metal table. She was not afraid and she | | was surrounded by bright lights. She saw three short humanoids around | | her. They were about four feet tall and gave off a white light, but | | no additional features could be discerned. One of the humanoids | | approached her and held out two fingers forming a "V" or peace sign. | | Marisa reported later finding several anomalous scars on her body. | | (Source: Albert S.
