There were three 1.5-meter (5 foot) tall men running | | toward the craft. They had oversized heads and wore helmets and | | boots. One entered the elongated object, which then spread some | | "wings" that made it look like a butterfly. It then shifted to a | | vertical position, resting on tripod landing gear, and took off at | | the same time as the spherical object into which the other two beings | | had gone. Traces were found at the spot. (Sources: Phenomenes | | Spatiaux, March 1968; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century | | of Landings, p. 204, case 117). | | | | 1954 - On this morning in Obersuessbach, Bavaria, Germany between ten | | and eleven a.m. a schoolteacher and four others sighted a flat | | circular, silver colored object that had a funny looking rim. The | | edge of the craft gave them the impression of fringe. It passed over | | at high speed. (Source: Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight | | Line Mystery, p. 34). | | | | 1957 - At 8:06 p.m. four Portuguese F-84 fighter jets from Ota AFB on | | a night training flight at 25,000 feet altitude between Cordoba and | | Coruche, Portugal sighted a large disc-shaped object. It was changing | | color from green to yellow to blue. It also appeared to change size. | | Four small circles of light detached from a larger light.

They asked the boys if they were interested in seeing | | a UFO. They walked to an apple orchard where they saw a red light | | land in the woods, and then take off. A burnt crater was found by the | | NICAP investigator, with tripod indentations. The US Air Force was | | called and performed a perfunctory, sloppy investigation of the case, | | but NICAP did a more thorough job. In addition to the burnt area and | | ground marks, some white powdery balls were found that were cold to | | the touch. After touching them the witnesses' hands retained numbness | | for 24 hours. (Sources: NICAP UFO Investigator, October 1964, p. 1; | | Jean Bastide, MUFON UFO Journal, July 1977, p. 11, citing NICAP field | | investigator Campbell). | | | | 1964 - That same evening two men had gone bow hunting in the forest | | near Cisco Grove, California. One of the men, Mr. D. Shrum, age 28, | | became lost and climbed a tree. It was then, at around 10:00 p.m., | | that he noticed a domed object with a blinking light on top descend | | and land. Two short humanoid beings, wearing silvery white coveralls, | | and a robot-looking creature got out and approached his location. | | They attempted to climb the tree after him in an apparent effort to | | capture him, but were unsuccessful. The robot released a vapor that | | drifted up to him and made him groggy, but before he lost | | consciousness he was able to tie himself to the tree trunk with his | | belt. He shot arrows at the robot, but the arrows just bounced off | | and caused no damage. The beings remained in the area, as far as he | | could tell, for most of the night. He stayed in the tree for eleven | | hours. (Sources: Coral E. & Jim Lorenzen, Flying Saucer Occupants, p. | | 137; Richard Hall, Uninvited Guests, p. 248; Gordon I. R.

Haines, CE-5: Close Encounters of the | | Fifth Kind, p. 221; UNICAT, case 297). | | | | Cisco Grove, California Abduction Attempt - 1964 | | | | [Sketch of Cisco Grove, California Abduction Attempt 1964] | | | | 1965 - In an isolated area of the Green River Gorge, Washington State | | a man named Salsbury encountered a landed white, disc-shaped craft | | from which a loud voice resembling a “loud speaker” originated. It | | told him not to be afraid, and to put down his gun. Once he did that, | | an oval-shaped door opened under the lower part of the object, and a | | man came out walking slowly towards him. The man was described as six | | feet tall, appearing to be about 30 years of age. He was dressed in a | | one-piece tight-fitting suit made of some sort of metallic coating, | | resembling aluminum or chrome, but dull reflecting. He also wore a | | helmet that was very tight-fitting on his skull. On his side he | | carried an odd-looking sidearm with a barrel about the size of a | | regular flashlight, but instead of a hole in it, it had some sort of | | oval lens of a purplish-bluish color. He spoke to the witness in a | | very refined voice, telling him “Don’t be alarmed, I am not here to | | cause you any injury or harm.” The man told the witness that he was | | the captain of his craft, and invited him onboard for a brief tour. | |  (Source: Albert S. Rosales, 1965 Humanoid Sighting Reports database, | | case # 2580, citing Andy Page). | | | | 1967 - At 5:10 a.m. police officer P. A. Andrade was on duty at City | | Hall in Valencia, Venezuela when he heard a humming noise and | | footsteps in the garage. He entered the garage and encountered a | | one-meter tall dwarf humanoid, with a big head and bulging, reddish | | glowing eyes. The being wore a silver colored, metallic-looking | | coverall. Andrade pointed his machine gun at the creature, but a | | voice from a hovering disc-shaped object said in Spanish that he | | should not harm the creature. The dwarf then tried to convince | | Andrade to come to "their world," adding it was "very distant and | | much larger than the Earth, and with many advantages for earthlings." | | When Andrade declined, the creature flew back into the object, which | | left.

(Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 10078, | | citing LDLN, issue 142). | | | | 1973 - At 11:10 p.m. a 30 meter in diameter disc-shaped object was | | observed in Louvroil, Nord department, France moving with a slow | | wobble. It shot two separate beams of light that converged on the | | ground. At the same time an ovoid object was seen at very low | | altitude in Maubeuge, Nord, France. Plants were found scorched on the | | ground at the site. (Sources: Lumieres dans la Nuit, January | | 1976; FSR Case Histories, December 1973, p. 16). | | | | 1974 - In Hierges, Nord, France dogs barked fiercely when a metallic | | domed disc-shaped object approached to within 70 meters only 15 | | meters above the ground.

When the | | house lights were switched off the object moved, then lifted off | | vertically. | | | | 1974 - Farm animals reacted in panic when a nocturnal light | | maneuvered at tree top level outside of Sioux City, Iowa. A burnt | | patch of vegetation was found in an alfalfa field. (Source: Ted R. | | Phillips, Physical Traces Associated with UFO Sightings, p. 104, case | | 745). | | | | 1979 - A small silver disc-shaped object, 2.5 to 3.0 feet in | | diameter, hovered with a wobbling motion low over a field in New | | Richmond, Wisconsin at 7:45 p.m. It rose and moved away, still | | wobbling. (Sources: Allan Hendry, International UFO Reporter, | | December 1979, p. 7; UNICAT, case 86). | | | | 1982 - At 11:30 p.m. a 150 foot long cigar-shaped object made a deep | | humming sound at low altitude in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.

(Source: GEIPAN, case 40). | | | | 1992 - An oval-shaped object with a dome on top was seen at a low | | level in Ontario, Canada (precise location not given). There were red | | and white light in an equatorial band around the object, running | | around the object in sequence like on a Christmas tree. A cloud of | | fog also enveloped the object, and it had an appendage at the tail | | end. (Source: MUFON CDROM field investigation files, case 930408J, | | field investigator Dan A. Boswell). | | | | 1993 - A domed disc-shaped object floated over cars on the M62 | | highway in Oldham, England at 10:30 p.m. Nocturnal lights hovered in | | the sky for 40 minutes.

This flash light was immediately followed by a | | strange whistling sound. After walking for about 100 meters the two | | boys next noticed a bizarre creature standing next to a light pole. | | It was described as short and white in color. The creature moved away | | very rapidly in a strange, zigzagging motion and disappeared into a | | nearby wooded area. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact | | Database 1997, citing Moreno Tambellini, SHADO). | | | | 2004 - A married couple spotted a shiny cigar-shaped object in the | | sky as they played with their sons in a park in Aldershot, England. | | The object appeared in the sky at around 2:15 p.m., and it spent the | | next 20 minutes ducking around in the sky, making random turns, and | | flying horizontally, vertically, and diagonally. (Source: George A. | | Filer & David E. Twichell, Filer's Files: Worldwide Reports of UFO | | Sightings, p. 132). | | | | 2005 - Four police officers sighted a diamond-shaped object over | | Wolsingham, Northumbria, England at 2:35 a.m. It was the approximate | | size of a large helicopter, had green lights on either side, and was | | clearly a three-dimensional craft. (Source: British Defence Ministry, | | case # 2005-077). | | | | 2007 - At 9:30 p.m. a hexagon formation of six lights flew over | | Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada going slowly from north to south. The | | sighting lasted ten minutes.  At 10:30 p.m. a flat, plate-like or | | saucer-shaped object with numerous blinking lights (red, ivory, | | and green in color) around its perimeter was sighted in | | Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. (Sources: (1) Chris Rutkowski, 2007 | | Canadian UFO Survey, case # 565; (2) Peter Davenport, National UFO | | Reporting Center, Seattle, September 2007 webpage, report uploaded | | October 8, 2007). | | | | 2008 - At around 2:00 a.m. several witnesses reported seeing a UFO | | resembling a bright greenish sphere encircled with red lights moving | | very fast over Taverny, Bessancourt, Ile-de-France, France. The | | object apparently landed, not far from the military base at Taverny, | | and several independent witnesses from separate locations saw two | | humanoids exit the object. The beings were described as "translucent" | | and greenish in color with large black eyes. No legs were visible, | | and they seemed to move around strangely and very quickly. Two of the | | witnesses were just 50-100 meters from the craft and beings, but were | | too surprised and frightened to take any photos on their cellphones. | | The humanoids appeared to notice the witnesses, and re-entered the | | craft, which soon took off and disappeared.
