They did not have time to count | | the number, and could not estimate the altitude, size or speed. | | (Source: Jan L. Aldrich, Project 1947: A preliminary report on the | | 1947 UFO sighting wave, UFO Research Coalition, 1997, p. 57, quoting | | the Orlando Sentinel Star, July 6, 1947). | | | | 1950 - A UFO was seen hovering over Adrian, Michigan at noon.

(Sources: newspaper clippings, March 31, | | 1950). | | | | 1950 - Three discs flew in formation over Autaugaville, Alabama at | | 5:30 p.m. They went up, down, and then flew away. Thirty-eight | | minutes later Mr. Townsend, a radio engineer, and 20 others in Selma, | | Alabama sighted three discs zip across the sky toward the west. One | | stopped for five minutes, and then shot up vertically, the other two | | continued on westward.

It made a humming sound | | and had bluish-green lights on its top and amber lights around the | | rim. He stopped his car when his car radio failed, his headlights | | dimmed, and the car lost power and slowed to 12-15 mph. The UFO | | swayed back and forth while hovering and shot a beam of white light | | at the witness, burning his elbow and bubbling paint on the car. Mr. | | Florio also felt heat and a tingling sensation. After the sighting | | the car was checked by a mechanic, and was found to have a defective | | battery, a dead radio, and only three spark plugs were still firing. | | (Sources: Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, | | p. 6). | | | | 1966 - There are 19 unexplained UFO reports recorded for this date in | | the UFOCAT database, coming off the peak that occurred on March 28. | | | | 1966 - A dark oval-shaped object carrying two bright red flashing | | lights was seen by three independent groups in the same area of | | Rehoboth, Massachusetts at different times, beginning at 8:15 p.m. | | One group saw it hover over a road, then descend slowly into a wooded | | area.

It stayed on the ground for five minutes. On the same night in | | Suffolk County, New York in communities such as East Hampton and | | Napeague, there were numerous reports of oblong-shaped craft | | hovering, maneuvering, and then flying out to sea. These reports were | | accompanied by electromagnetic effects that interfered with | | automobile ignitions, lights, and radio and TV reception. At ten | | o'clock in the evening in Montauk, New York Mr. Field's 1965 Ford | | pickup truck experienced total engine failure when the driver came up | | to the top of a rise in the road and encountered a cigar-shaped | | object low over the sand dunes. After losing power Mr. Field allowed | | his car to roll backward away from the UFO. The engine restarted. The | | UFO took off, circled, and flew out over the ocean. At about the same | | time the police station in Oswego, New York received many calls over | | a two-hour period reporting UFOs.

(Source: Project Bluebook files | | counted in official statistics, Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, | | case 740). | | | | 1967 - On this night near Peterborough, South Australia a car's | | engine failed and the two male witnesses then saw a disc-shaped | | object rise from a field by the road. The object gave off a blue and | | violet glow. It rapidly disappeared into the sky. A few minutes later | | another disc shot up from another field, emitting sparks the color of | | a blue mercury-vapor lamp. After the second UFO had gone the car | | could then be restarted.

(Sources: Richard Hall, MUFON UFO Journal, August 1976, | | p. 19). | | | | 1978 - At shortly after 7:00 o'clock in the morning in Albury, New | | South Wales, Australia a chrome colored cigar-shaped object hovered | | over a nearby hillside, casting a shadow on the ground. A second | | stingray shaped object swept through the sky in a slow arc and came | | to a position beside the larger object. There was an eerie, abnormal | | silence that persisted over a mile-wide area. (Source: MUFON UFO | | Journal, March 1978, p. 6). | | | | 1978 - A "flying boxcar" covered with lights crossed a field and | | buzzed a car at low altitude in Pompey Center, New York after 10:00 | | p.m. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, June 1978, p. 5). | | | | 1981 - A metallic sphere descended from the sky at a 45º angle and | | stopped over a house in Magny, France at 11:20 a.m. It then shot | | straight up and away. A check with authorities showed there were no | | scheduled balloon releases at that time. That evening there were | | reports from pilots from all over Pennsylvania at the same time that | | a pilot reported seeing a rocket or cigar-shaped object southwest of | | Philadelphia at 11:50 p.m. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, October | | 1981). | | | | 1982 - An ovoid or "submarine"-shaped object flew over a car in | | Charlottesville, Virginia at 11:15 p.m. It then hovered over the | | road, made a U-turn, and then paced the car for 15 blocks.

At 11:30 p.m. in Jodoigne a triangle of nocturnal lights | | were seen kilometers apart. F-16 jet interceptors were scrambled and | | pursued the lights. Also at 11:30 p.m. a sphere that seemed to grow | | wings was seen in the sky over Jaunchelette, Belgium. Three lights in | | a huge triangle were also reported. (Source: FSR, December 1990). | | | | 1993 - A Dauphin helicopter, flying to the east of Mullingar, Ireland | | at ten minutes past midnight, encountered an unexplained light in the | | sky.

(Source: | | Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p 47). | | | | 1993 - At 12:30 a.m. at the RAF Shawbury air base in England, a | | meteorological officer saw a triangular UFO, larger than a | | Boeing-747, zigzag in the sky at great speed, making a humming sound. | | It swept the countryside with a powerful beam of light. At the same | | time in Rugeley, England a family had a close encounter with a UFO | | that made a humming sound. They thought the object was going to | | crash, but instead it vanished. At RAF Cosford an aviation expert | | timed the flight of a UFO seen traveling between Haverfordwest and | | Pembrokeshire. He calculated its speed at 1100 mph. According to Nick | | Pope, the UK Air Ministry's representative responsible for tracking | | UFO reports at the time, zigzagging UFOs were also reported flying | | over Devonshire, Cornwall, and Somerset Counties at this time. | | (Source: Lynn Pickett, Mammoth Book of UFOs, pp. 150-152). | | | | 1993 - Kadima, Israel - At three o'clock in the morning Aviva Carmel | | felt drawn to leave her bed and go outside. There she witnessed a | | silver metallic craft land: first the front end touched down, then | | the rear. She estimated the size and shape of the craft to be similar | | to an "orange storage tank" or fruit silo, about sixty feet in | | circumference. She approached the landed craft to investigate and | | when she got to within twenty feet she saw one of the crew. He was | | 2.5 meters tall and wore silvery foil coveralls that clung tightly to | | his body like a second skin. He also wore a helmet with a tinted | | visor that prevented her from seeing the being's face. Later the | | following day Carmel ventured back into her backyard and saw the | | imprint of the craft. It was a circle 22 feet in diameter formed from | | still living vegetation. Plant life outside the imprint area had | | died. (Source: Albert S.
