(Sources: Don Berliner, Project Bluebook | | UFO Unknowns; Project Blue Book files counted in official statistics, | | case 4127; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of | | Landings, p. 253). | | | | 1957 - At five o'clock in the afternoon a silver disc was seen | | hovering over Dixons Corners, Ontario at an estimated altitude of | | 8,000 meters. That night a fireball descended over San Felipe, | | Venezuela but stopped in midair. It came down between two hills, then | | rose up and flew away. Also that evening, around 10 p.m. two friends | | out stargazing saw seven perfectly circular objects fly over | | Hicksville, New York.

It shot straight up into the clouds | | and illuminated the clouds a reddish color. (Source: Loren E. Gross, | | The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History, 1959: | | April-June, p. 46). | | | | 1964 - A reddish orange rectangular object with a lower appendage was | | seen low over a road in Rio Choromoro, Argentina at 9:30 p.m. It had | | black stripes and two vanes rotating in a clockwise direction. It was | | also surrounded by smoke or vapor. It absorbed a smaller object a few | | meters above the road. (Source: FSR Case Histories, December 1973, p. | | 18). | | | | 1965 - Private aircraft pilot Mr. C. Adams, and a television | | cameraman Mr. Les Hendy, reported seeing four or five “mysterious | | objects” floating in the sea 3 miles east of Fraser Island, 150 miles | | north of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia at about 11.30 a.m. Mr. | | Adams first noticed two of the objects from a distance of about 8 | | miles while flying over Fraser Island. The weather was clear and the | | objects appeared to resemble two big dark-coloured logs. They were | | narrow and up to 100 feet long. As he steered toward them two or | | three similar but smaller objects appeared near the other two. They | | did not appear to move, but seemed to “sort of submerge" when the | | plane was about one mile away from them. From the air they appeared | | to be lying just below the surface and when “submerging” from sight | | seemed to do so without disturbing the surface. Mr. Adams was certain | | that the objects were too big to be fish or sharks, and the wrong | | shape to be whales. Mr. Hendy regretted that they were too far away | | from him to film them. Several experts got their heads together and | | decided that the objects sighted were migrating whales. However, | | their explanation was soon squashed when part-owner of the Seabrae | | Hotel--Mr. G. Sampson--and Mrs. V. Grady reported that they had | | sighted a similar object on the very same day, half-a-mile out | | between Redcliffe Pier and Redcliffe Point. They watched it for 10 | | minutes. It was long and black and there appeared to be a black | | balloon suspended over it. A Fisheries Dept. spokesman commented that | | it was unlikely to be a whale, because they very seldom come into | | Morton Bay. (Source: H. J. Hinfelaar, “Submarine Craft in Australian | | Waters”, Flying Saucer Review, July-August 1966, p. 29). | | | | 1966 - At 9:30 p.m. in Spooner, Wisconsin Ms. Dorothy Gray sighted | | two domed discs with sparkling upper surfaces and square windows on | | their tops hovered revolved above a lake, causing a strange | | turbulence on the surface of the lake. The sighting lasted 25 | | seconds. (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official | | statistics, case # 10626; Don Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO | | Unknowns). | | | | 1967 - At 1:30 a.m. a strange object buzzed a car near Itajuba, | | Brazil and the car's motor and headlights then failed. The object was | | mushroom-shaped. The witness also saw the faces of humanoids through | | the transparent front of the UFO. It flew away and the car could be | | restarted.

Bernard Delair, UFO Register, volume | | 5, 1974, case 289). | | | | 1974 - The witness to an earlier report of humanoids in Warneton, | | Belgium from January 7, 1974 saw the same two entities again. At 8:40 | | p.m. his car engine sputtered and the cassette player stopped | | working. He felt an electric shock, then heard a sound, and the | | beings vanished. At 9:30 EDT, less than seven hours later in | | Southampton, Massachusetts four men and women saw a domed object with | | multicolored lights and a bobbing motion, descend near a road. The | | witnesses fled in fear.

A 16-year-old motorcyclist saw two purple | | objects for 30 seconds along the side of the road. A pinkish-purple | | object, shaped like an oval meat dish, suddenly appeared over his | | cycle and an approaching car. The engines of both vehicles began to | | lose power. Both vehicles were dragged twenty-five feet along the | | highway not under their own power. The motorcyclist also felt | | increased heat and the motorcycle's metal body became hot to the | | touch. The object then suddenly disappeared. The next day, the brakes | | on the cycle were found to be abnormally worn.

He found himself in a large room while a being | | surrounded by light stood at his side. He remembers looking back at | | his body and seemingly walking on air toward a network of wires. At | | that point someone placed a helmet on his head and he had a sensation | | of expanded consciousness and a rushing in of information. He could | | look down and see the ground from his viewpoint in the air. A being | | nexted touched a small device to different points on his arm. He | | conversed with the beings about the nature of happiness and helping | | others. (Source: Thomas E.
