| Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
|
||
| |
|
||
| January 13 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1910 - Several thousand people in Chattanooga, Tennessee watched a |
|
||
| white cigar-shaped object that passed rapidly over the city at around |
|
||
| 11:00 a.m. at 500 to 1,000 feet altitude. It disappeared into a bank |
|
||
| of smoke along the river. "Flags on the custom house hung limp [so |
|
||
| the wind]…would not have propelled a...balloon." (Sources: Donald E. |

| Keyhoe, Flying Saucers Are Real, p. 61; Richard Hall, From Airships |
|
||

|
||
| Century (1900-1946), p. 8; Frank Edwards, Flying Saucers--Serious |
|
||
| Business, p. 27). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - Two men, West and Liddell, watched as a forty meter in |
|
||
| diameter fluorescent oval-shaped object nearly touched down on the |
|
||
| grass in Balfour, New Zealand at 3:10 a.m., but it jumped away as the |
|
||
| two men approached. It changed to a bluish-white sphere with a dark |
|
||
| red center. It cleared a fence, and then vanished. (Source: Richard |
|
||
| F. Haines, CE-5: Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind, p. 106). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1958 - At 6:30 p.m. in Casino, New South Wales, Australia Brian |
|
||
| Crittendon, age 21, was chased by a dome-shaped object that emitted a |
|
||
| narrow light beam toward the ground. He was so frightened that he |
|
||
| drove home on a flat tire, followed for five kilometers by the |
|
||
| object, which was about 50 meters away from him and 10 meters above |
|
||
| ground. It overtook his car at a speed in excess of 100 km/h. Radio |
|
||
| interference was noted but the UFO made no noise. There was an |
|
||
| independent witness to the UFO. (Sources: Michael Hervey, UFOs in the |
|
||
| Southern Hemisphere, p. 49; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A |
|
||
| Century of Landings, case 457; Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving |
|
||
| Vehicle Interference, case 89). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - A witness driving alone in Bygholm, Denmark saw a stationary |
|
||
| object ahead in the sky. After about five seconds the object moved |
|
||
| toward the car and passed over it at a height of 100 meters. The |
|
||
| car's engine stopped at this point but the headlights were not |
|
||
| affected. The object, which now changed color from yellow-green to |
|
||
| yellow-white, moved quickly away into the west. (Sources: Richard |
|
||
| Hall, The UFO Evidence, p. 75; Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving |
|
||
| Vehicle Interference, case 97, FSR, Vol. 5, No. 5) |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - At 7:00 a.m. Robert Collins, while driving a pick-up truck |
|
||
| near Greenville, Pennsylvania, noticed lights in the sky he thought |
|
||
| were a plane making an emergency landing. The lights eventually |
|
||
| coalesced into a single bright light. This light then hovered over |
|
||
| his truck for several minutes. His truck's engine, lights, and radio |
|
||
| failed at this point. The light, which was too bright for Mr. ColIins |
|
||
| to discern any structure, departed quickly to the west and out of |
|
||
| sight in 30 seconds. The truck then could be restarted. (Sources: |
|
||
| Greenville (PA) Record-Argus, January 31, 1959; Mark Rodeghier, UFO |
|
||
| Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, case 98, citing Coral & Jim |
|
||
| Lorenzen, UFOs: The Whole Story, p. 75). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - Nine-year old Freddie Amos woke up at 1:30 a.m. in his |
|
||
| farmhouse in Iola, Kansas to see a round object hovering motionless |
|
||
| low over an adjoining field. It was 25 feet in diameter, had a dome |
|
||
| on top, short wing-like protrusions, and three wheels on its |
|
||
| underside. There were red lights on the ends of the "wings," and a |
|
||
| blue light on top of the dome. A man stood inside the dome looking |
|
||
| out, and another man was visible sitting behind a console behind him. |
|
||
| The man standind wore a "crinkly" green uniform that covered him |
|
||
| entirely; his face was in shadow and his facial features could not be |
|
||
| seen. This "terrible" man frightened the boy although he could not |
|
||
| say why. He got back into bed but continued to watch the object, |
|
||
| which circled his house and hovered again for five minutes back in |
|
||
| its original position before flying off. In the morning some of their |
|
||
| cows were found to have broken through the fence around their |
|
||
| pasture. One had broken her leg. A pond in the pasture near the site |
|
||
| continued to remain unfrozen although the temperatures were well |
|
||
| below freezing. This encounter occurred during a minor concentration |
|
||
| of UFO sightings at nearby locales. (Source: David F. Webb and Ted |
|
||
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1967-7, citing |
|
||
| Mary Conger for NICAP; Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
|
||
| 1967, case 26). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 10:00 p.m. Pilot Carl M., a flight officer, and passenger |
|
||
| Jimmie Moran on a Lear Jet 23 en route from Houston, Texas to Las |
|
||
| Vegas, Nevada flying at 41,000 feet and 300 knots saw a red oval |
|
||
| luminous object in the 10 o'clock position. The object split into |
|
||
| four similar red oval objects vertically a number of times, each |
|
||
| separated by about 2,000 ft and each emitting a "red ray". They then |
|
||
| retracted up into the top object. Albuquerque radar tracked the |
|
||
| object 39 miles ahead of the Lear jet moving on the same heading, |
|
||
| with no transponder signal. The object blinked off visually for 30 |
|
||
| seconds then blinked back on. Albuquerque control contacted a |
|
||
| National Airlines DC-8 over Casa Grande, Arizona, whose pilot |
|
||
| confirmed the Lear Jet pilot's reports. Albuquerque control warned |
|
||
| the Lear that the object suddenly darted towards the Lear at high |
|
||
| speed, and within seconds the radar blips merged. The object flooded |
|
||
| the Lear Jet with intense red light so bright the pilot had |
|
||
| difficulty seeing his instrument panel, and it maintained a position |
|
||
| in front of the Lear for a few minutes. Then, it blinked off-on again |
|
||
| and started to fall back behind the left wing, but then pulled |
|
||
| forward again. When the object blinked off the Albuquerque radar |
|
||
| controllers would lose contact with the object, then regain it when |
|
||
| it blinked on again. Both the UFO and Lear jet made left turns over |
|
||
| Winslow, Arizona, when Los Angeles ARTC Center radar picked up both |
|
||
| targets. Past Flagstaff the object climbed at a 30° angle |
|
||
| disappearing to the west in less than 10 seconds. (Source: J. Allen |

|
||
| UNICAT, case # 318). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1968 - At 6:20 a.m. in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania a large round |
|
||
| white object, at times reddish, emitted smaller satellite objects |
|
||
| that maneuvered independently. The larger UFO was 40 to 50 feet in |
|
||
| diameter UFO and about 350 feet in the air. It rose slowly, and gave |
|
||
| off a white haze. The white light then changed color from red |
|
||
| to reddish-orange then back to white. It emitted four small red balls |
|
||
| of light from a hatch, then five white ones. There were at least 20 |
|
||
| witnesses. That night in Dillsburg, Pennsylvania the Rev. R. |
|
||
| Mossir reported sighting four pulsating objects leaving a white UFO, |
|
||
| which seemed to explode in the sky after the red objects left it. |

|
||
| II. A Thirty Year Report, p. 414). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1969 - In Vado Ligure, Italy at around 6 p.m. an eight meter |
|
||
| in diameter circular object was seen taking off from a construction |
|
||
| site, crushed grass was found at the landing site. (Sources: Larry |
|
||
| Hatch, U computer database, case # 8708; Maurizio Verga, ITACAT, case |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1970 - A witness riding on a motorcycle on highway D123 north of |
|
||
| Cramoisy in Oise department, France encountered a low flying, slow |
|
||
| moving, 10 meter long sausage-shaped object with a row of portholes |
|
||
| in front at 6:45 a.m. The witness felt sick later. (Source: Larry |
|
||
| Hatch, U computer database, case # 9556, citing LDLN Lecteurs). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1977 - At 12:30 a.m. a 17-year-old woman driving in Plantation, |
|
||
| Florida had her car paced by a disc-shaped object. It engaged in |
|
||
| erratic maneuvers, and then was joined by a second disc. Both objects |
|
||
| flew off to the east. They did not appear on radar. (Source: Allan |
|
||
| Hendry, International UFO Reporter, pp. 2 & 36). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1979 - On this evening, perhaps as early as 4:30 p.m., a 50-year-old |
|
||
| farmer named Mancini in Viterbo, Italy spotted a large blindingly |
|
||
| bright fiery red sphere descend in a nearby pasture. The sphere |
|
||
| changed colors to a bright orange and then to red, and finally dimmed |
|
||
| to reveal a two-meter wide metallic sphere. A small man only 20 |
|
||
| inches tall, wearing a silvery white suit, emerged from the object |
|
||
| and walked around the object, frequently bending down as if he was |
|
||
| picking things up. Frightened, the witness ran away from the scene. |
|
||
| The object took off and flew to the northwest. (Sources: Jane Thomas, |
|
||
| UFO Newsclipping Service, March 1979, p. 15 , citing Hoja Lunes, Jan. |
|
||
| 15, 1979; Maurizio Verga, ITACAT, case 143; Larry Hatch, U computer |
|
||
| database, case # 13608; BUFORA Journal, Vol. 8, No. 3; Albert S. |
|
||
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1979, case # 996). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1979 - At 11:50 a.m. a 12-year-old boy named Suarez, the son of the |
|
||
| school's janitor, was alone in a school room in Loreto, Santiago del |
|
||
| Estero province, Argentina when he heard a sudden noise. Looking |
|
||
| around, he saw a rectangular silvery object, five feet tall by two |
|
||
| feet wide and three feet long, hovering a few inches above the |
|
||
| schoolyard ground. Two flaps opened on the sides of the object and |
|
||
| two little men emerged and descended. Each was about three feet tall |
|
||
| and dressed in shiny aluminum colored one-piece coveralls, and their |
|
||
| hands had only four fingers. Both wore helmets with dark faceplates |
|
||
| that covered the eyes. They each had a device with a tube and |
|
||
| clock-like instrument attached. They entered the school and one being |
|
||
| grabbed the boy. A voice coming from the object spoke to him in |
|
||
| Spanish telling him to sit down. Once seated the boy was paralyzed |
|
||
| and unable to move from the chair, while one of the beings went into |
|
||
| another room and the other went back inside the object. A reddish |
|
||
| beam of light from the object knocked the witness out. When he woke |
|
||
| up later the object and beings were gone, but a strong sulphurous |
|
||
| odor remained behind. (Sources: Jane Thomas, UFO Newsclipping |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2000 - Three pinkish-red objects were sighted travelling in vertical |
|
||
| formation in Mount Warrigal, New South Wales, Australia at 10:55 p.m. |
|
||
| They then performed incredible acrobatics for the next 20 minutes. |

|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2000 - Late on this night in Jacksonville, Florida a woman suddenly |
|
||
| awoke to find herself being dropped onto her bed by a non-human |
|
||
| looking entity. Close to her face she saw a huge head on a thin body. |
|
||
| At the same time she felt a puff of breath coming from the entity's |
|
||
| open mouth. She sensed that the being was surprised that she had |
|
||
| woken up. Although terrified, she still fell asleep. (Source: Albert |
|
||
| S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 2000, case # 3441, citing South |
|
||
| Florida Skyscan). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2007 - In Vaughan, Ontario a cigar-shaped object flew parallel to the |
|
||
| highway at midnight, gliding quietly like a submarine. The object had |
|
||
| illuminated windows. The sighting lasted about 30 seconds. (Source: |
