(Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of | | Landings, p. 180, citing Charles Fort, The Books of Charles Fort, p. | | 637). | | | | 1954 - While flying from Charleston, West Virginia to Atlanta on this | | morning, British astronomer H. Percy Wilkins observed two brilliant, | | oval shaped objects above the clouds 2 miles away. "Sharp edged," | | bright gold in color, they "looked exactly like polished metal plates | | reflecting the sunlight," he wrote. They moved in slow motion | | northwards as the clouds drifted south. He also noticed a third UFO, | | this one gray in color. (Source: Frank Edwards, Flying Saucers -- | | Serious Business, pg. 47.) | | | | 1956 - Nueces River, Texas - Dan Martin claimed he was taken aboard a | | large landed UFO, where he spent seven hours being lectured by the | | master of the ship.

The disc-shaped UFO dropped down at a | | 90-degree angle, and stopped to hover at 20-30 meters altitude, 250 | | meters away. It changed color from white to orange to red to purple | | to white again. Over a dozen other people witnessed it for several | | minutes before it rose vertically at great speed and flew towards the | | southwest. Horses in the area went crazy with fear, sheep broke | | loose, and dogs cowered in silence. Mr. Darnaude has degrees in law, | | economics, and business management, and at the time was the manager | | of his family's agricultural and cattle breeding business, on whose | | estate the incident occurred.

He stopped his car and observed it for two | | minutes. It was shaped like two plates glued together, and had a | | smaller oval dome on top. It took a 45-degree inclination, rose, made | | a right-angle turn, and changed color from white to yellow to blue to | | green as it accelerated. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A | | Century of Landings, pg. 331). | | | | Westport, Massachusetts - 1966 | | | | [] | | | | 1967 - Da Nang, Vietnam - In the early evening two silver cylindrical | | UFOs were seen by several U.S. military personnel on the ground near | | the military base for several minutes.

A short being | | exited the craft and began walking around it. The being was wearing a | | white, tight-fitting uniform, had a baldhead, slit-like ears and | | somewhat larger eyes than humans. Watts attempted to take a picture | | of the being, who quickly ran back into the object which took off and | | flew to the north out of sight. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid | | Contact Database 1967, case # 3348, citing Timothy Good, Alien Base). | | | | 1967 - At 8:00 p.m. two children in Price Hill, Ohio saw a | | disc-shaped object one meter in diameter and 25 cm thick, making a | | metallic noise as it hovered 10 meters above them. They took a series | | of photos but they showed only a blurry light. (Source: Jacques | | Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, pg. 346 (case | | 849), citing the Cincinnati Enquirer, June 12, 1967). | | | | 1968 - On this evening in Lavras de Mangabeira, Brazil a UFO shaped | | like a flattened oval was seen in a field by a witness.

Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database | | 1968, citing GEPUC Brazil & Antonio Faleiro). | | | | 1969 - A doctor X was returning home from a funeral late this night | | near Segovia, Spain when he found his vehicle suddenly blocked by a | | dense curtain formed by hundreds of small luminous white cylinders | | hovering in a vertical position in front of his vehicle. Next Dr. X | | suddenly heard a voice in his head that told him to relax that | | everything would be alright. At the same time he noticed on the front | | passenger seat an opaque cube-shaped form that appeared out of | | nowhere. His next recollection was of again driving his vehicle | | around a curve and then arriving home, feeling very tired and haggard | | having no recollection of what occurred during approximately one-hour | | period of missing time. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact | | Database 1969, citing Fabio Zerpa, Los Hombres de Negro Y los OVNIS). | | | | 1970 - Atlantic Ocean -- Thor Heyerdahl and navigator Norman Baker, | | aboard their boat the Ra II, radioed in that they had watched a UFO | | move across the horizon for several minutes during the early morning | | hours. It disappeared in a "bright orange flash." The sighting was | | not connected with any space launches, but may have been related to a | | U.S. Navy Polaris missile launch. Heyerdahl and his crew were | | attempting to prove that ancient Egyptians could have crossed the | | Atlantic in papyrus boats centuries before Columbus. (Source: APRO | | Bulletin, July-August 1970, pg. 9). | | | | 1971 - At 10 a.m. a five-meter in diameter, silver lenticular | | disc-shaped object landed beside the highway in Cuesta de las Vacas, | | San Juan, Argentina.

Then she noticed above the Martinet bridge, 75 feet ahead | | of her, a bright reddish-orange dome-shaped light. She put her hands | | over her eyes and when she looked again it had disappeared. She was | | able to restart her car and drove home. When she arrived home at 4 | | a.m. she realized it had taken her two hours longer than it should | | have. Under hypnosis she recalled being taken aboard the UFO by two | | short beings with large eyes, wearing black coveralls. She was | | fastened onto an operating table, where they ran "a kind of box" over | | her. (Source: Jean Bastide, MUFON UFO Journal, July 1976, pg. 6.) | | | | 1985 - Lanzhou, Gansu Province, China -- A Chinese Civil Aviation | | Administration Boeing 747 encountered a UFO on the Peking to Paris | | flight that almost forced the captain to make an emergency landing. | | Flight CA 933 was over Lanzhou, the capital of Gansu Province, at | | 2240 hours when Captain Wang Shuting and his crew first observed the | | object.. The UFO flew across the path of the airliner at its altitude | | of 33,000 feet at a very high speed. The object illuminated an area | | of twenty-five to thirty square miles and was huge, with an apparent | | diameter of six miles. It was elliptical in shape and had an | | extremely bright spot in the center, with three horizontal rows of | | bluish-white lights on the perimeter. The sighting lasted for two | | minutes.
