|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  July 2 |
| |
| 1907 - Burlington, Vermont. The Bishop John Michaud was standing on a |
| Burlington street corner around 2 in the afternoon, engaged in a |
| conversation with Ex-Governor Woodbury and Mr. A.A. Buell, when |
| without warning they were startled by what sounded like a nearby |
| explosion. Looking eastward along College Street they observed a |
| torpedo-shaped object, some 300 feet away, hovering in the air about |
| 50 feet over the tops of the buildings. It was estimated to be about |
| 6 feet long and 8 inches in diameter. It was dark, with red flames |
| being emitted from spots on the surface resembling unburnished |
| copper. The object began to move slowly toward the south. As it moved |
| the surface seemed to be rupturing in places, and through these |
| ruptures came the intense red flames. (Source: Charles Fort, The Complete |
| Books of Charles Fort. New York: Dover, 1974, pg. 292.). |
| |
| 1950 - Steep Rock Lake, Ontario, Canada. A man and his wife saw a |
| double saucer with portholes and a rotating antenna come to rest on |
| the surface of the lake. Ten figures, four feet tall, dressed in |
| shiny clothing, emerged and walked on deck like robots "changing |
| direction without turning their bodies." Their faces could not be |
| seen. One of them wore a red cap, had darker arms and legs and seemed |
| to be their leader. They immersed a hose in the lake, apparently |
| extracted water, and then took off. Fishermen later reported a green |
| moss formed on the lake. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to |
| Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 195). |
| |
| 1956 - A bright object crossed and re-crossed the sky over Conway, |
| Massachusetts. The Greenfield Recorder-Gazette said that "although |
| traveling at what appeared to be a high rate of speed" the object |
| "was able to reverse its course completely". (Source: Arthur |
| Constance, The Inexplicable Sky. New York: Citadel Press, 1956, pg. |
| 280). |
| |
| 1965 - At 7:00 p.m. five scientists and meteorological observers at |
| the English research base on Deception Island in Antarctica watched |
| zig-zagging, maneuvering, color changing UFOs for 8-10 |
| minutes, including a lens-shaped disc. (Sources: Coral E. Lorenzen, |
| Flying Saucers: The Startling Evidence of the Invasion from Outer |
| Space, pp. 234-235; Frank Edwards, Flying Saucers--Serious Business, |
| p. 284; UNICAT, case # 110; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume |
| II:  A Thirty-Year Report, pp. 4, 150). |
| |
| 1965 - A woman named Brundage driving in Kent, Washington had a close |
| encounter with a top-shaped UFO making a whistling sound at 11:00 |
| p.m. It caused the car lights, radio, and engine to die. (Sources: |
| James Moseley, Saucer News, December 1965, p. 27; Mark Rodeghier, UFO |
| Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, p. 24; Brad Steiger & Joan |
| Whritenour, Flying Saucers are Hostile, p. 41). |
| |
| 1968 - At 11:25 a.m. 15-year old Oscar Iriart was riding his horse in |
| Sierra Chica, Buenos Aires, Argentina and encountered two strange men |
| who beckoned to him. They were five and a half feet tall, with thin |
| white hair and wore red clothing. The witness noticed that their legs |
| were semi transparent. They told him, in Spanish, "You are going to |
| know the world. We will take you. But not now, as we have a big |
| load." They directed his attention to an elliptical object six feet |
| in diameter, standing on 20" tripod legs in a drainage ditch. Then |
| one of them handed the boy an envelope, telling him to dip it into a |
| nearby puddle. He did so, and found that neither the envelope nor his |
| hand were wetted. In the envelope, written in a crude hand like a |
| small child's, was the message, "You are going to know the world, F. |
| Saucer." The two men then got into their machine through the top, and |
| it took off vertically at great speed. Oscar found both his horse and |
| dog paralyzed, and unable to move for some minutes. At the spot were |
| found 3 holes 5" deep, arranged in an isosceles triangle. 5 local |
| skeptics visited the site at 2315 that night and were amazed to |
| observed a luminous object zigzag above them at low altitude. |

| Reports, case 1968-41, citing Raul Coronel, FSR, September-October |
| 1968). |
| |
| 1968 - At 8:15 p.m. a boy named Sola saw a bright object hovering |
| over a nearby mountain in Cofico, Salta province, Argentina. At the |
| same time the boy beheld at only a few meters distance from him, a |
| "strange being about 2.10 meters in height, hanging suspended in air, |
| his body emitting a strange luminosity." This being suddenly spun |
| around like a top, then rose into the air and vanished above the |
| mountain. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of |
| Humanoid Reports, case 1968-40, citing FSR, Vol. 14, No. 5). |
| |
| 1968 - A woman in St. Alexis de Montcalm, Quebec, Canada saw a green |
| object shaped like a hat or mushroom at 9:14 p.m. which flew by at |
| the height of her apartment window. She believed she saw up to 20 |
| small men inside, all of green color with rather pointed noses, |
| resembling sculptures in the African Pavilion at the Montreal Expo. |
| (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid |
| Reports, case 1968-85, citing Gene Duplantier, Saucers, Space & |
| Science). |
| |
| 1968 - Constable M. Michaud and another police officer in St. Thomas, |
| Quebec, Canada reported that at 9:30 p.m. they saw two naked little |
| men run through a drainage ditch and flee. Their report stated that |
| they thought they had cornered the "little men" but they disappeared |
| as they were about to be apprehended. They were estimated to be only |
| two feet tall with shoulders the size of adults and |
| disproportionately large heads. The appearance of a large meteor at |
| the time was also noted. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1968-42, citing Gene |
| Duplantier, Saucers, Space & Science, Fall 1968). |
| |
| 1968 - Several witnesses in Wooler, Ontario, Canada saw a bright |
| object land on some nearby brush at 10:00 p.m.. Later several shadowy |
| beings were seen entering nearby homes and reportedly they took |
| several items. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
| 1968, case #2409, citing FSR). |
| |
| 1969 - An small flying object was reported to have landed next to the |
| local primary school in Johore Baru, Johore province, Malaysia at |
| 10:35 a.m. Several school children reported seeing five tiny men like |
| figures wearing red colored outfits emerge from the object. The |
| children rushed at the little men in an attempt to capture one but |
| they jumped into a hole in the ground and hid. The UFO was described |
| as silvery colored, and it also vanished. (Source: Ahmad Jamaluddin, |
| A Summary of UFO and Related events in Malaysia 1950-1980). |
| |
| 1990 - Kiev, Ukraine - Vitaly Rudenko and his brother were sleeping on |
| the roof of their kitchen around midnight when they spotted a |
| maneuvering light that changed color from a light silver to a |
| brilliant yellow. As they watched an eerie silence surrounded them. |
| Rudenko half jokingly yelled out, "Come down and take us!" Quite |
| unexpectedly, the light descended rapidly and hovered very close to |
| them. They described it as an enormous sphere that was slightly |
| elongated. A dazzling beam of light shot out from the sphere and |
| struck both men. At this point they lost all track of what happened |
| next. Rudenko woke up later crawling through the vegetable garden |
| with his clothing scorched. His brother was found unconscious with |
| bruises on his forehead. No hypnotic regression has been attempted to |
| date. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1990, |
| citing UFOZone, Russia). |
| |
| 2001 - On this night Jose Da Silva in Canatuma, Amazonas State, |
| Brazil saw a large disc-shaped object with several windows and a |
| small doorway into which two two-meter tall humanoids were seen to |
| enter. Immediately after boarding, the object began to spin very |
| rapidly and rose slowly from the ground. It then emitted a sudden |
| bright flash of light from the top section, and vanished in front of |
| the witness. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
| 2001, citing Thiago Luiz Ticchetti, EBE-ET). |
