+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | [On This Day] | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ |  Encounters with Aliens on this Day | | | |  February 4 | | | | 1951 - A young girl, who was to have other UFO encounters later in | | life, was playing in her garden in Withdean, East Sussex, England | | between 6:30 and 7:00 p.m. when she saw a hovering disc-shaped object | | with a transparent dome on top. Inside the dome she could see three | | men, and they appeared to be looking down at her. The domed object | | made a descent into the garden and three humanoids with bald, domed | | heads exited. The men wore khaki-colored outfits, and carried a weird | | looking object. They floated toward the girl, then reversed | | direction, reboarded, and took off. Their exit was "like a film in | | reverse." (Source: Jenny Randles, Alien Contacts and Abductions, p. | | 65).  | | | | 1953 -  At 1:50 p.m. U.S. Weather Bureau observer Stanley H. Brown in | | Yuma, Arizona, using a theodolite, sighted a dull white, oblong | | object that was tracked flying straight up vertically, then leveling | | off and being joined by a second, similar looking object. The second | | UFO twice flew away and returned to the first. The two dull white | | objects maneuvered errratically, then in unison against the wind, one | | degree apart. A thin mist was seen around the edges of the | | objects.After five minutes both objects were lost to sight behind | | some clouds. A Project Blue Book unknown.

Haines, Project | | Delta, p. 78). | | | | 1954 - At 5:29 p.m. four air traffic controllers at Carswell AFB in | | Fort Worth, Texas sighted and tracked on radar a huge cigar-shaped | | object that flew without making any noise at 4,000 feet altitude. | | Separate blips on the radar screen parted and rejoined. The sighting | | lasted 10 minutes.

Two tall | | beings stood motionless nearby. | | | | 1965 - On or about this date several people in Torrent, Corrientes | | province, Argentina observed five luminous objects in flight at | | night. A transparent craft landed, and five creatures about two | | meters high, with one eye in the forehead and flashing helmets, | | emerged and tried to abduct one of the villagers. (Sources: Jacques | | Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # 636; | | citing Charles Bowen, FSR Special Issue # 1: The Humanoids, p. 39). | | | | 1973 - While driving from Iron Knob to Kimba, South Australia on | | Route One, Brian Hunt and his passenger, Miss Sharon Kinckler, | | observed a red light at 9:50 p.m. approximately 32 kilometers | | northeast of Kimba. It was in a clearing to the right of the road. As | | they passed it, the two observed a red orange lighted area of | | rectangular shape, about 10 feet high by 5 feet wide, in which they | | saw a sharply defined man in a white spacesuit. The figure was of | | normal height and appeared to be of ordinary shape, but was suspended | | some 2-3 inches above the ground. He floated into the middle of the | | lighted area some 2-3 feet above the base. Brian called this to his | | companion's attention as he accelerated past the scene, and Sharon | | was able to see the orange glow spread across the entire highway | | behind them. When they arrived at Miss Kinckler's home in Kimba, they | | called the local police and a constable accompanied them back to the | | site. The light was gone and no traces were found. Two other | | independent witnesses were subsequently located by investigators. Mr. | | Allen Degnor, a Ceduna truck driver who passed by the same area at | | 10.00 p.m. described essentially the same phenomenon. Mr. Max Inglis, | | who had passed Brian and Sharon just before reaching the site of the | | strange phenomenon. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: | | Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1973-03, citing Dean Piovesan, | | Peter Horne, Peter Howell and Keith Basterfield). | | | | 1977 - Basford, Staffordshire, England - At 2:25 a.m. an automobile | | club patrolman sighted a luminous orange object at some distance from | | his car. His two-way radio had heavy static while the object was in | | view. There was simultaneous radio interference at the Stafford | | police headquarters. (Source: Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving | | Vehicle Interference, case 407, citing Northern UFO Network News, | | 1977) | | | | 1977 - At 1:30 p.m. several schoolboys at Broad Haven school in | | Pembrokeshire, Wales saw a huge silvery object on the ground about | | 300 yards away from them in an adjoining field. David George, age 9, | | said it was making a humming sound, and looked like a saucer with a | | point on top. He saw a man with long pointed ears and wearing a | | silver suit standing next to it. Tudor Jones, age 10, Jeremy | | Passmore, age 9, and David Ward, age 10, also saw the being. David | | Ward said, "the people wore green--they had sort of cameras---and | | they had pointed ears." The landed UFO was still there at 2 p.m. The | | object was a seen third time, again in the same place for five | | minutes, by a total of 14 boys and one girl. Their drawings show a | | domed, disc-shaped object. The site where the UFO was seen was | | surrounded by a muddy swamp; no traces were found. (Sources: David F. | | Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case | | 1977-07, citing Randall Jones Pugh, BUFORA; Randall Jones Pugh, FSR). | | | | 1999 - Jorge Alfonso was walking his dog in Cabo Frio, Rio de Janeiro | | state, Brazil at 8:30 p.m. when he noticed a bright light some | | distance away. Thinking that it was a car that had broken down he | | approached to offer assistance. As he got nearer the light he was | | surprised to see that it was an object about three meters in | | diameter. Through a doorway he could see a humanoid operating some | | type of controls. He approached to within 30 meters of the object. | | Two minutes later the craft rose slowly up and disappeared into the | | sky. (Source: Albert S.
