The objects | | flew at 30 to 50 feet above the ground, on a collision course with | | the witnesses' car, then moved parallel to the road and paced their | | car at 50-80 mph for six minutes. The object changed to a blue color. | | Light illuminated the car interior. (Sources: Don Berliner, Project | | Bluebook UFO Unknowns; Don Berliner, Australasian UFOlogist, April | | 1999, p. 52; Mort Young, UFO Top Secret, p. 106-111; UNICAT, case # | | 636). | | | | 1967 - In Buret, Belgium at 7:00 a.m. two witnesses watched as two | | chrome colored saucers exited a fog bank 100 meters away.

Haines, Project Delta, p. 84; UNICAT, | | case # 629). | | | | 1970 – At 8:20 p.m. Mr. Don McTrow reportedly saw a green, domed | | object "half the size of a cabin" near Banff, Alberta, Canada. It had | | four windows through which two human looking beings could be seen. | | The object emitted a high-pitched sound and was in view from five to | | six minutes. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue | | of Humanoid Reports, case 1970-16, citing William K. Allan, Calgary). | | | | 1970 – In Jessup, Pennsylvania a 16-year-old boy was returning home | | from a high school football game at ten o’clock at night when, three | | blocks from his home, he sighted a disc-shaped UFO. It was | | silver-aluminum in color and approximately 1,000 feet in length. It | | had a turret on top surrounded by a row of windows. The underside had | | three large spheres, with a central flat disk. It was glowing white. | | The sky was clear and the object moved silently across the night sky | | in an easterly direction. While deciding whether to report this | | incident or not, the witness was peering out his kitchen window and | | sighted a large black limousine. He could see it quite clearly | | because there was a street lamp directly across the street from his | | house. Four occupants were in the vehicle. Two were seated in the | | front, and two in the back. Each had on dark suits and hats similar | | to those worn in the 1940's. They sat in their vehicle, motionless. | | They returned for the next several evenings. There was no verbal or | | physical contact with the strangers. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, | | Humanoid Contact Database 1970, citing Wisconsin UFO). | | | | 1970 - Thirteen-year-old David McTrow of Banff, Alberta, Canada saw a | | green, domed disc "half the size of a cabin" at 8:20 p.m. Inside the | | craft could be seen two human-like beings. The UFO emitted a | | high-pitched sound. It was visible for 5-6 minutes. (Source: Gene | | Duplantier, Saucers, Space & Science, November 1971, p. 7). | | | | 1971 - At two a.m. Benito Miranda, a 24-year-old truck driver, was | | driving on Highway 40 west of Itaperuna, Minas Gerais, Brazil when he | | perceived a strong beam of reddish light, coming from something that | | blocked the road ahead of him. He lost control of his car, and it | | slowed down and stopped despite his best efforts. He got out of his | | car and saw an object about the size of a Volkswagen Beetle on the | | road. A door opened in the object and three diminutive beings, less | | than two feet tall, jumped down from it. They wore coveralls with | | "Roman type" helmets, and carried dazzling lights. With a yellow beam | | of light they levitated him 150 feet from the ground, where he was | | floated for about 15 minutes. When the headlights of an approaching | | car came into view he was gently lowered back down to the ground, and | | the object and its occupants vanished. He drove back to Itaperuna and | | reported his close encounter to the police, who sent him to SAMDU | | Hospital to be examined. An independent witness, the driver of the | | approaching car, reported witnessing the event. (Sources: Irene | | Granchi, APRO Bulletin, September 1971, p. 3; David F. Webb & Ted | | Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1971-24, citing | | Dr. Walter Buhler). | | | | 1971 - The first sighting of a tall, hairy creature to occur on this | | day in Wantage, Oxfordshire, England happened at 5:30 a.m., but no | | details are available. Later that same day Miss Linda Milne saw a | | tall, hairy creature enter some woods near the old Wantage canal. Two | | 14-year-old boys said they were chased by it, that when they threw | | stones at it it ran towards them. They scaled a fence to get away, | | but the creature did as well. Later, they observed a disc-shaped | | object take off from a field in the same field. At the time there | | were many reports of UFOs in the area. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted | | Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1971-25, citing | | J. D. Llewellyn, FSR, Vol. 18 # 1). | | | | 1971 - There were a number of sightings from across China on this | | day. In Xuchang a luminous object spiralled in a counterclockwise | | spin in the northwestern sky. It descended to a lower altitude, rose | | again, then shot away to the west. (Source: Wendelle Stevens & Paul | | Dong, UFOs over Modern China, p. 74). | | | | 1973 - At about 9:00 p.m. two people watched a segmented circular | | object in the sky over Crown Street, Reading, Berkshire, England. | | (Sources: Reading Evening Post, September 26, 1973; J. Benard Delair, | | UFO Register, Volume 5, 1974, p. 52, case 616). | | | | Reading, England - 1973 | | | | [Sketch for Reading, England - 1973] | | | | 1975 - A member of the U.S. Air Force, at home on leave in Mountlake | | Terrace, Washington was awakened by barking dogs at 5:50 a.m. He saw | | a bright red sphere about a foot in diameter hovering 12 inches off | | the ground in front of his parked car. Beside it stood a man about 6' | | 5" tall. The witness next heard a high-pitched, beeping sound that | | made him feel as if he were going to faint. He awakened his wife and | | the beeping sound immediately stopped. When they looked again the | | sphere and the figure were both gone. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted | | Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case # 1975-33, | | citing Robert Gribble, NUFORC). | | | | 1976 - At 11:00 p.m. between Mildura and Karrawinna, Victoria, | | Australia four witnesses watched red lights near the ground in a | | field. They hovered for one minute over their initial position, | | 50-100 feet above the ground, then drifted to the east gaining | | altitude; they then hovered again, and finally vanished. A distant | | rumbling was heard just after their disappearance. Three days after | | the sighting of the low level lights, a 21.6 meter (71 foot) circle | | of dried grass was found in the paddock were the straw had been blown | | or sucked off. (Sources: International UFO Reporter, December 1976, | | p. 10; ACOS Bulletin, December 1976, p. 24; Bill Chalker, | | Australasian Ufologist, April 1993, p. 24; UNICAT, case # 792). | | | | 1977 - At midnight a man who had had a close encounter with a | | bright multicolored object the previous night, was again driving | | on the same highway on his way to San Juan, Puerto Rico when he began | | hearing voices in his head. He stopped his car and flagged down a | | passing police officer, and he was taken to the local police station | | in Pedro Avila. When he felt better he left and again headed off | | towards San Juan, but after a few minutes he once again began to hear | | voices, so he stopped the car and suddenly a bright light appeared. | | There was a brilliant flash, and a three-foot tall figure encased in | | light appeared. The witness felt dizzy and got out of his vehicle. He | | felt a strange attraction to the little man and could not | | stop himself from approaching. The humanoid carried two loops in his | | right hand, and something resembling a flashlight that emitted a | | brilliant golden yellow light. The figure also radiated a blue aura | | that at times would briefly turn golden. The little man pointed to a | | nearby hovering light, and then entered it, which vanished abruptly. | | The man suffered from severe neck pain after his encounter. (Source: | | Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database, cse # 267, | | citing Robiou Lamarche, Manifesto OVNI en Puerto Rico, Santo Domingo | | y Cuba). | | | | 1978 - On this afternoon in Ostuni, Apulia, Italy two observers | | watched a disc-shaped object make a whistling sound at 25 meters | | altitude. It maneuvered, made a descent and wobbled. It shot off to | | the south toward a NATO base. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer | | database, case # 12846, citing Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue # 208). | | | | 1979 - In a farming region of Talco, Chile a peasant out plowing the | | fields encountered a landed disc-shaped craft. A tall humanoid | | emerged from the object and briefly chased the peasant. The humanoid | | caught up with the farmer, placing its hand on his shoulder. Later | | the farmer was treated at a local hospital for second and third | | degree burns on his shoulder, apparently caused by the humanoid's | | touch. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1979, | | case # 1075, citing Saga 1980 UFO Annual). | | | | 1979 - At 5 p.m. two witnesses at Lake George in Rochester, New York | | saw a silent, chrome-colored flattened sphere rise in the sky and | | shoot off to the northeast. It left behind no trail. (Source: APRO | | Bulletin, December 1979, p. 4). | | | | 1980 - Elias Seixas de Mattos and two of his friends were returning | | to Rio de Janeiro in a truck. At 10:28 p.m., when they had reached a | | point on the road near Conceicao de Araguaia, Goias State, Brazil the | | driver felt a sensation like a cold liquid on his body, and heard a | | voice in his head telling him to go to a certain spot. The other two | | men saw a flash of light hit the hood of the truck. All three of them | | then saw a luminous object on the ground about a mile away. Sr. | | Seixas got out of the vehicle and attempted to film the object, while | | the other two men panicked and ran from the truck. A short while | | later Elias, feeling drowsy, talked one of the other men into driving | | the truck. They next experienced the vehicle behaving in a strange | | manner, perhaps because it was being levitated, followed by a period | | of missing time. Later under hypnosis, Elias recalled floating into a | | fiery red, cigar-shaped object with flashing white lights. Inside, he | | entered an egg-shaped chamber attached to a large white circular room | | with tables and machinery. A seven foot tall being, described as | | wearing a tight fitting, yellow coverall outfit that covered his | | entire body and head except for his face, operated the machinery. The | | being had large, slanted, lilac colored eyes, a long nose, a large | | lipless mouth, long arms and hands, and very pale skin. He wore a | | belt with a circular buckle that had colored lights. An invisible | | barrier apparently prevented the witness from approaching the being. | | Seixas was submitted to several medical examinations on top of an | | exam bed-like apparatus. At one point the aliens connected some type | | of equipment to his head and chest. In addition, blood and sperm | | samples were taken from him. He remembered seeing two human like | | beings, one black, the other white, who resembled identical twins; | | they wore tight-fitting gray uniforms. The beings told Seixas that | | their point of origin was within the star cluster of Ursa Minor, and | | that they had bases on the planet Mars.

Rosales, 1980 Humanoid Sighting Reports database, case | | # 493). | | | | 1988 - Three separate cars stalled on State Route 113 in Lorain | | County, Ohio at 10:30 p.m. The occupants of the cars then spotted a | | silent, silver, delta-shaped object in some woods. The noticed that | | the treetops near the object were swaying despite the fact that there | | wasn't any wind at the time. (Source: Thomas M. Olsen, FSR, June | | 1989). | | | | 1998 - At 4:40 a.m. the witness was driving his truck along his paper | | route in Sunrise Beach, Texas when as he rounded a corner he saw a | | disc-shaped craft with green and orange lights hovering about 25 or | | 30 feet above the ground. He also briefly saw a 4 foot 8 inch tall | | figure apparently standing on the object that quickly disappeared | | from sight. When the truck started to slow down there was a very | | bright flash of light. The witnesses was momentarily blinded and when | | he was able to focus again the object had disappeared. (Source: | | Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1998, case #3228, citing | | Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle). | | | | 1998 - At 8:00 p.m. two women driving north on Interstate 95 near | | Brattleboro, Vermont noticed several bright headlights approaching | | from behind. Three or four cars sped by the witnesses, who were doing | | about 70 mph. The cars appeared to be traveling together. As the | | first car passed them, the headlights of the car directly behind it | | illuminated the interior. The witnesses then saw in the back seat of | | the front car a lone entity sitting erect. It looked tall with a huge | | head on a spindly neck. Its color was pasty and it looked like a lot | | of veins covered its head. These cars drove at such a high speed that | | they could not catch up with them. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, | | Humanoid Contact Database 1998, case # 3914, citing Sandra Black, | | MUFON). | | | | 2001 - While driving shortly after 6:00 p.m. near Canberra, ACT, | | Australia, a man and woman, Hans and Fiona, saw a combination of low | | flying, bright white lights. The two outer lights were round and | | bright, while the inner lights were dimmer. The sighting lasted 15 | | seconds. (Source: Australian UFO Research Network, ufoinfo.com). | | | | 2002 - A close encounter in which one of the witnesses shot at the | | up-close, hovering UFO with his pistol occurred in the early morning | | hours on this day in Naxcivan, Azerbaijan. The main witness reported, | | "My friends own an Internet café, and I closed up late that night. It | | had been raining, but the rain stopped as I left the café at 3:30 | | a.m." It was a very dark night, and when he looked up he saw a huge | | disc-shaped object, 500-600 meters in diameter, hovering overhead. It | | was so close that it blocked the rain. He saw one man shoot his | | pistol at it about eight times, and the UFO started to move away, | | where upon it started to rain again. "The police came and arrested | | the man. I'm 100% sure this was a UFO." (Source: George A. Filer & | | David E. Twichell, Filer's Files: Worldwide Reports of UFO Sightings, | | p. 45). | | | | 2002 - At 8:30 p.m. a white, V-shaped object hovered over Whitehorse, | | Yukon Territory. It was seen to rotate and then descend. The incident | | lasted three minutes. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 2002 Canadian UFO | | Survey, case 422, citing UFOBC). | | | | 2002 - A missing time incident also occurred at 8:30 p.m. local time | | in Grapevine, Tarrant County, Texas. The witness reported that he was | | driving when he was approached by blinking lights on a circular UFO. | | This was followed by a period of missing time, and when he recovered | | consciousness he and his car were not in the same location as when | | the CE-4 experience began. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO | | Reporting Center, Seattle, September 2002 webpage). | | | | 2003 - Two dogs showed fear as a mysterious, large dark object was | | observed for five minutes overhead in Marstons Mills, Massachusetts. | | At 8:20 p.m. the witness reported that the sky above him appeared to | | be a solid black, with no stars showing, nor light of any kind, and | | the black void was seen changing its shape. There was no sound | | reported, either. (Sources:  Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting | | Center, Seattle, September 2003 webpage; Joan Woodward, NICAP | | Category 4 - Animal Effects Cases, www.nicap.org). | | | | 2008 - At 2:45 p.m. a metallic, disc-shaped object hovered in the sky | | over Roscoe, Illinois for 30 seconds, and then shot off.
