One half descended while heading to the south, | | while the other half hovered in place. That same day in the | | Tumacacori National Monument in Arizona, a disc-shaped object with a | | dome maneuvered over the mountains for five minutes at 5:15 p.m. It | | had a red glowing bottom.

Keel, FSR, July-August 1968, p. 13; David F. Webb & | | Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1966-71 | | (A0765)). | | | | 1971 - Following a pre-arranged date with some mysterious entities, | | the well known stage psychic Uri Geller and physicist Andrijah | | Puharich drove to the appointed place near Tel Aviv, Israel around | | 10:00 p.m. There they saw a bluish light pulsating over a small | | square of open field. Geller felt an irresistible attraction towards | | the light. They left the car and heard a cicada-like electronic | | noise. Geller remembered asking Puharich and another witness, named | | Iris, to wait there and he set off towards the pulsating light. As he | | approached it he felt like he was entering some sort of trance. | | Everything became completely silent around him and he felt like he | | had entered some type of "vacuum." The very air had changed quality. | | He then remembered seeing a strange "building" or UFO having no | | discernible shape whatsoever. Soon a shapeless dark figure parted | | from the strange building and approached him, then put something in | | his hand. Geller felt a sudden feeling of fear and ran back to | | Andrijah and Iris. Before he reached them he realized what was in his | | hand: it was the very same pen that had mysteriously vanished from | | their experiment box.

Webb, Proceedings of the 1976 CUFOS Conference, p. 270; David F. | | Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case | | A1135). | | | | 1973 -  Beginning at around 7:45 a.m., an airliner was delayed from | | landing three times because of nocturnal lights and radar returns | | from all over the area of Pisa, Italy for 30 minutes. One of these | | lights flew off rapidly to the northwest. (Source: Lumieres dans la | | Nuit, issue # 134). | | | | 1973 -  At 6:45 p.m. in the mountains five kilometers southeast of | | Fabregues, France two teenagers discovered a 12 meter wide | | disc-shaped object resting on four legs on the ground. It had a | | bright dome or "blister" on top. A door in the craft opened and a | | ladder unrolled. The witnesses fled and the UFO took off, making a | | humming sound. It pursued the witnesses for awhile, then flew off to | | the southwest. Four imprints were found in the ground at the landing | | site. They were arranged in a 1.3 meter square with a central burn | | mark. (Sources: newspaper clipping dated December 22, 1973; Fred I. | | Merritt, Leg-Mark Catalog; Ted R.

Bernard Delair, UFO Register, volume 5 (1974) case 1120, | | citing the Saga UFO Report). | | | | 1973 -  A burglar alarm went off in a house in La Selva Beach in | | Santa Cruz, California around 5 a.m. Appliances in house started | | operating and kept rhythm with the lights flashing on a UFO outside; | | the freezer in particular surged when the lights on the UFO became | | intense. Deputy sheriffs came in response to the burglar alarm call | | and also saw the lights from the craft, which were red, blue, green | | and orange. (Source: James A. Harder, APRO Bulletin, November-December | | 1973). | | | | 1976 -  John Brady and Ronald Pullman were driving home to Milford, | | Delaware at 3:30 a.m. and were at a place called Slaughter Neck when | | they saw two tall figures in an adjacent cornfield, about 100 yards | | away. The two giant humanoid figures were maybe 8 or 9 feet tall, and | | standing close together as though they were hugging. They appeared to | | be of a pine green color. No traces could be found the next day. | | (Source: Milford Chronicle, December 9, 1976; David F. Webb & Ted | | Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1976-80 | | (A1512). | | 1976 - At 5:30 a.m. a married couple were heading west on Sterling | | Road in Davie, Florida to drop off his two children, ages 4 and 1 ½ | | years, at a local daycare center. As he was passing a bicyclist he | | noticed a fireball in the northwest sky falling fast. After a minute | | the husband pulled over and shut off the car, to say a prayer because | | he thought he had seen an airplane crashing. He sat there for several | | minutes, then he and his wife observed a huge dull, grayish metallic | | object that was heading slowly towards them. The object was immense, | | made no sound, nor emit any smoke or exhaust that could be noticeable | | from thermal fluctuations of the air around it. The object appeared | | to be oblong or cigar-shaped, more than 250 feet long and more than | | 30 feet high. There seemed to be some sort of whitish light atop and | | a light at each end, front and rear but not white. | | | | As it approached their vehicle his wife leaned her upper body out of | | the window to look up at it, while he watched it from behind the | | windshield inside. As they kept asking what it was, he noticed that | | the entire interior of the car had become illuminated. He then also | | noticed that his four-year old daughter leaning on the back window | | looking up. He then looked at his interior light and saw that it was | | not lit. He again looked out his side window and it was still pitch | | black outside the car. He did his best to get a fix on the structure | | of the craft, that was now less than 50 feet from them. The surface | | did not appear to be metallic at all, but it had a rough, sandy | | texture similar to that of shark skin. He could not locate any seams | | on it or anything that would suggest conventional construction | | methods. | | | | The object became stationary and they sat staring at it for minutes. | | Then he saw a small, child-like figure fun in front of the headlights | | from the left. It started to climb over the metal road barrier, but | | hesitated and turned toward him. It wore no shoes, belt, tools, | | weapons, or any other accessories. His first thought was to jump out | | and grab the being to throw it in the car trunk, but a mental voice | | told him not to move or he would be harmed. He tried to lift his arm | | and was horrified because it looked like it was cut off where the | | light ended inside the car. He looked again at the small figure again | | and had the thought that he could easily overpower it. A voice again | | warned him that the stretch cloth suit the figure was wearing carried | | 40,000 volts of piezo-electrical current. The small being then hopped | | over a fence and entered a field of a horse farm. His last memory of | | the incident was of looking behind his car and seeing a somewhat | | different shaped object about one mile south of his location, moving | | slowly at first but then accelerating so fast that it appeared to | | just vaporize. He then drove off without speaking another word to his | | wife, and at the daycare center they realized that they had been at | | the site for over 40 minutes. He also lost his eyesight for almost | | two days after the incident. The witness also claims that, after | | several years of nightmares, he discovered that the occupants of the | | craft he had seen were from a parallel universe.

Rosales, Humanoid | | Contact Database 1976, citing NUFORC). | | | | 1977 - Along the coast of Tatapouri, New Zealand a red disc-shaped | | object came in over the land from the direction of the sea and | | followed a car with three female passengers along Highway 35 for a | | mile until they stopped the car, causing the car headlights to dim | | during its pursuit. The car's new battery had no water remaining in | | it after the close encounter.

Its diameter was | | about 5.5 to 6 meters and it was about 3.0 meters in height. It | | reportedly weighed 720 kg. It was transported to Novosibirsk, Russia | | where it was hidden in the Akademgorodok region. The body of a short | | dwarf-like humanoid was found inside, which was delivered for autopsy | | to the scientific research institute in Novosibirsk. When first | | discovered the humanoid allegedly still had shown vital signs, and it | | stayed in a coma-like state for two weeks before dying. A segmented | | aperture was found on the side of the disc where apparently other | | crewmembers had escaped out through an escape pod. (Source: Albert S. | | Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1978, citing Anton "Cade" | | Belousov, Soviet X Files List). | | | | 1978 -  At 6:30 a.m. three lights in a triangular pattern were seen | | in the sky over Avezzano, Abruzzi, Italy at the same time that a | | delta-shaped object was spotted on the ground. EM effects were noted. | | At the landing site on some farm land there were later found some | | burnt areas and deep ground marks in the soil. (Source: Lumieres dans | | la Nuit, issue # 212). | | | | 1978 - Mrs. Pilar Martinez de Arregui opened the windows in her home | | in Alegria de Alava, Spain at 12:40 a.m. in order to relax after a | | long day, as her husband slept in the nearby bedroom. She spied a | | strong orange light reflected from the glassware inside the house. | | She investigated and found that the source of the light was in a | | nearby field, but the light had gradually disappeared. Temporarily | | forgetting about the mystery light, Pilar began doing some housework, | | when a second more powerful orange flash of light again brought her | | attention outside. She saw a orange sphere object approaching from | | the sky at very high speed. Afraid, she ran and turned off all the | | lights in the house. Outside the object had now landed some 100 | | meters from the house. The craft was oval in shape appeared to | | balance itself just above the ground. Crouching behind her window she | | peered out and noticed a light like a flashlight that was being | | carried by two tall and very corpulent humanoid figures. Pilar | | noticed that the humanoids wore tight-fitting one-piece coveralls, | | very light in color. They had just appeared standing next to the | | landed object; they had not emerged from any opening, they had just | | sudden appeared. Both beings began approaching the house. For several | | minutes she watched them move around through partially opened blinds. | | Finally, she decided she would bathe and then go to bed. Later, | | feeling nervous, she got up from bed and looked again to see the | | object rise and emit a sharp whirring sound. It quickly disappeared | | from view. Investigators found unusual tracks at the landing site. | | (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1978, citing | | Iker Jimenez, Encuentros: Historia de Los OVNI en Espana). | | | | 1978 - At 11:00 p.m. a 26-year-old night watchman, Fortunato | | Zanfretta, was patrolling a housing development in Marzano Di | | Torriglia, Genova, Italy when he noticed some moving "torch lights" | | coming from a nearby courtyard. He tried to radio his headquarters | | but the two-way radio would not work. Armed with a pistol and a | | flashlight he entered the courtyard to search the area. He was | | suddenly pushed from behind and fell. He got up and was confronted by | | a huge, three-meter tall reptilian "creature." The witness was by now | | terrified and he dropped his flashlight and ran towards the car. He | | then saw a bright yellow, triangular shaped craft take off from | | behind a house. He called for help and was later found unconscious at | | the site by the other guards. Later, under hypnosis, he recalled | | being taken into a very bright room by giant beings that put a | | painful helmet on his head. The beings were described as green | | skinned with yellow triangular eyes, red veins on their heads, and | | pointed ears. He suffered from persistent headaches after the event. | | (Sources: Luciano Boccone, UNICAT database, citing International UFO | | Reporter, November 1979, p. 13; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: | | Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case A1997; Albert S. Rosales, | | Humanoid Contact Database 1978, case # 139, citing Paolo Fiorino, UFO | | Universe, October-November 1991). | | | | 1978 - A security guard at the local hydroelectric plant in | | Marimbonda near Fronteira, Brazil was at his guardhouse on top of the | | dam at 10:30 p.m. when he noticed some lights shining down on the | | water surface. He went out to investigate and noticed a luminous | | circular object approach from across the river. The object came | | closer and began to hover close to the ground near the power station. | | The guard could see a door and a small window on the UFO. The window | | opened and a human face looked out at the witness. The craft's door | | then opened and three tall men came out. These men wore shiny | | metallic blue coveralls and all had very long, smooth black hair. The | | beings approached the guard and spoke to him in an unintelligible | | language. He panicked and tried to fire a warning shot into the air | | with his revolver, but it jammed. One of the men then went inside the | | UFO and came back out holding a black box and handed it to one of the | | others. After that the witness was able to understand the beings and | | was told they were here on a "research and study mission." At one | | point one of the men started collecting stones from the ground and | | the witness protested. The men then put away the box and calmly | | walked back into their craft, which left silently and at high speed. | | (Source: Dr. Walter Buhler, FSR, Vol. 25 # 3). | | | | 1989 -  A couple driving in the farm community of Blyton, Illinois | | saw some yellowish orange lights pace their car for several miles at | | about 7:00 p.m., blinking out whenever there was oncoming traffic, | | then turning back on. Finally, all the lights blinked out and were | | gone. (Source: Poe Clark Poe, MUFON Field Investigations Database, | | case # 900743). | | | | 1991 - At 9:45 p.m. a large oval UFO was observed by the Yates family | | a few dozen feet above the Teynham Church in Teynham, Kent, England. | | Something shot off from it, then lots of different beams of light | | started flashing. The object had an oval on top with red, yellow, | | green and blue lights on the bottom.
