+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | [On This Day] | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ |  Encounters with Aliens on this Day | | | |  February 7 | | | | 1950 - A 30-foot wide cone-shaped object flew in over the shoreline | | at Alameda Naval Yard in California. There were six military | | witnesses in total, and the sighting lasted several minutes. One | | witness reported it as possibly a plane with engine trouble. (Source: | | newspaper clipping dated February 9, 1950). | | | | 1953 - An orange light was seen in the sky over Korea and an F-94 | | fighter jet was scrambled to intercept it. The F-94 pilot saw the | | bright object change speeds and altitude, then pull away from him. | | The UFO's presence was confirmed on radar.

Keyhoe, Flying | | Saucers from Outer Space, p. 257; Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence | | (Volume I), p. 133; Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. | | 20). | | | | 1963 - At 11:45 p.m. three people in two separate airplanes sighted a | | disc-shaped object over a missile site near Charlottesville, | | Virginia. It shot off at a speed in excess of 2000 knots. (Sources: | | NICAP UFO Investigator, February 1963, p. 3; Dominique Weinstein, | | Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 33; Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence, p. | | 43). | | | | 1967 - At 11:55 p.m. two married women in Oakhurst, California | | watched as a solid round object sprayed out many contrails and | | disintegrated in the sky. Next, a silver cigar-shaped object hovered | | vertically, then flew away rapidly to the southwest. (Source: NICAP | | case files). | | | | 1969 - Shortly after 7:00 a.m. in Pirassununga, Sao Paulo State, | | Brazil the shouts of people exclaiming about a mysterious | | bluish-white object that had landed on a hillside awakened Tiago | | Machado, age 19. He grabbed his binoculars and went to look at it, | | approaching to within 30 feet. It was a domed disc, aluminum colored, | | about 12 feet in diameter and five feet high. A hinged door was open | | on the top of the dome and from it two humanoid figures emerged and | | floated to the ground. Two more beings were visible through windows | | inside the craft. The beings were 4.5 feet tall and dressed in | | tight-fitting silvery coveralls without buttons. Their facial | | features were visible through transparent helmets. Their skin was | | yellow, their eyes slanting, and their mouths were thin and | | slit-like. They came to within 3-4 meters of Tiago. When they laughed | | at him while he puffed a cigarette, he could see that they had black | | teeth. He tossed the cigarette pack close to one, who put his hand | | over it and the pack floated up into his hand. The thumb of his hand | | was set further back than it would be on a human's hand. The beings | | spoke in “hoarse, guttural” sounds. When a friend shouted out to | | Tiago the entities walked backward and re-entered the craft through | | the door. The second one pointed a tube at Machado when halfway | | through, and it emitted a bluish flame that “floated” at him. When it | | hit him he felt pain and was paralyzed. The UFO took off in a | | horizontal direction just as the witness fainted. A red welt remained | | where the flame had struck him. On the ground were found three | | landing-leg marks.

The lights on the object | | rotated counterclockwise. Their were six witnesses from the Moore | | family. (Source: Bob Teets, West Virginia UFOs: Close Encounters in | | the Mountain State, p. 90). | | | | 1972 - A triangular object was tracked on radar and sighted by | | several observers on the ground at Sarajevo Airport, Yugoslavia at | | 7:30 p.m. as it increased speed, and then disappeared.

There were seven different humanoid | | types, a body implant, and communication to the woman that she was | | "coming along real well."

The sighting lasted 10 minutes. (Sources: Northern | | Network files, case report dated March 1, 1977; Awareness, July 1977, | | p. 20). | | | | 1978 - The International UFO Reporter reported that a 23-year old | | police officer named Linnevold was fired from his job for chasing a | | UFO during a sighting that occurred on this night shortly after 1:00 | | a.m. in Calmar, Iowa.

Outside a bright white 10-foot wide circular UFO with a hump | | in the middle--a domed disc--was hovering over a neighbor' s yard, | | 200 feet away. It ascended in a zigzag at a high rate of speed. A | | lawn ornament figure was reported missing. (Source: Robert Gribble, | | International UFO Reporter, March-April 1984, p. 7). | | | | 1987 - On this night three motorists in Potters Mills, Pennsylvania | | and the Seven Mountains area encountered a large 300 foot long | | hovering oval object. It had lights around its perimeter, and the | | mountainside terrain was brightly illuminated by its presence. | | (Sources: Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II. A Thirty Year | | Report, p. 30; UFO Magazine (USA), June 1990, p. 16). | | | | 1989 - At 10:30 p.m. several witnesses were driving together along an | | isolated section of Route 4 in Sassovivo, Italy when they started to | | see intermittent circular flashes of light ahead of them. As they got | | closer they saw five circular objects on the ground alongside the | | road. The vehicle's engine stalled as five humanoids, about 90 cm | | tall, emerged from the crafts and surrounded the vehicle. The | | humanoids wore white, astronaut like suits, and had black hair and | | large staring eyes. They moved rapidly around the vehicle, completely | | ignoring the witnesses. For some time their vehicle was prevented | | from moving. After awhile the humanoids went back into their circular | | objects and then these craft disappeared from sight. The source | | indicated that the driver died soon after the encounter, but provided | | no information as to the cause of death. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, | | Humanoid Contact Database 1989, citing CUN). | | | | 1989 - A 17-year-old girl observed a small sphere with red and blue | | lights hovering only 3 meters over her backyard in New Haven, | | Connecticut. It was 60 feet away, and reportedly caused her a | | temporary tingling sensation. (Sources: Larry Hatch, U computer | | database, case # 15297; Paul Ferrughelli, Computer Catalog of UFO | | Reports, 1988-94, case 240, citing Robert Gribble). | | | | 1990 - Jaroslav Novotny was on his way to his parent's home in the | | evening when he saw a large orange, spherical object that descended | | with a falling leaf motion close to the ground in a garden in | | Ostrozke Nove Uesi, Czechoslovakia. It emitted three bright | | oval-shaped beams of light from an extended antenna that illuminated | | the surroundings quite clearly. A large figure with an oval-shaped | | head was seen in a window in the object. It had almost human facial | | features, but it had large yellow eyes and what appeared to be a | | large mouth.  As the craft left it appeared to create an air | | turbulence that caused trees in the garden to bend over.

Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1990, | | citing LDLN and Project Becassine). | | | | 1995 - Nocturnal lights, alone and in a triangular formation, were | | sighted near the Bangor Nuclear Submarine Base from U.S. Highway 101 | |  in Quilcene, Washington at around five o'clock in the early morning. | | (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, | | Feb. 1995 webpage; Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 17109, | | citing NUFORC).  | | | | 1996 - At 9:30 p.m a nocturnal light flew over Sydney, New South | | Wales, Australia and was observed from Turramurra. It stopped in | | midair, next made several zigzag maneuvers, followed by 70 degree | | turns, and shot off to the south. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer | | database, case # 17606). | | | | 1997 - Two children in Westbury, Tasmania, Australia reported that | | they had witnessed a cigar-shaped object at 9:00 a.m. It flew to the | | west slowly, turned vertical, and went up-and-down rapidly.

(Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case | | # 17869). | | | | 1997 - On this night a dark triangular object appeared over the | | village of Burnside, near Cumnock in Strathclyde, Scotland.
