| Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
|
||
| |
|
||
| November 17 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1955 - At 6:10 a.m. in St. Louis, Missouri Mr. J. A. Mapes sighted |
|
||
| twelve round, flat objects flying in a four-deep formation. They were |
|
||
| silver on top and dark on the bottom. They tipped in pitched and |
|
||
| rolled as they flew by. They were in sight for 45 seconds. (Source: |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1962 - At nine o'clock in the evening Mr. F. L. Swindale, a college |
|
||
| graduate and ex-USMC Captain, saw three bright star-like lights |
|
||
| approach, hover and bounce in the sky over Tampa, Florida. After |
|
||
| 11-15 minutes they faded away. (Source: Don Berliner, Project |
|
||
| Bluebook UFO Unknowns). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - At 1:30 a.m. Margaret Marchute saw on the ground in |
|
||
| Collegeville, Pennsylvania a luminous object that seemed to be made |
|
||
| of polished metal. After about half an hour a red flame shot upward |
|
||
| from the object, then two very bright lights approached it from the |
|
||
| distance. When these were near it something like a luminous balloon |
|
||
| sprang up from it and hovered in the air. At this point she could see |
|
||
| 3 or 4 figures moving about the large object on the ground, which was |
|
||
| pulsating from dim to bright. They were dressed in a "gold shiny |
|
||
| material." She watched them for about two hours before going to bed. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - In Gaffney, South Carolina police patrolmen A. G. Huskey and |
|
||
| C. Hutchins rounded a corner and saw a dark, spherical machine with a |
|
||
| flat rim land in front of their patrol car at four o'clock in the |
|
||
| morning. They estimated it was seven meters in diameter and about |
|
||
| twenty feet above the ground. Hutchins described it as being |
|
||
| spherical, like a ball, with a wide, flat rim around it. There were |
|
||
| no lights or portholes visible on it. It was completely dark, |
|
||
| reflecting a dull gold color in the headlights of the police car. A |
|
||
| small doorway opened noiselessly on the underside of the sphere and a |
|
||
| short ladder dropped down. A small man dressed in a shiny gold suit |
|
||
| emerged. White light poured out of the opening, but neither man could |
|
||
| see anything in the interior. The small being descended the ladder |
|
||
| and walked slowly and deliberately toward the two police officers. |
|
||
| When the figure reached a point about fifteen to twenty feet from the |
|
||
| two men, it stopped. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| "He didn't move stiffly," officer Hutchins said. "He moved just like |
|
||
| anybody else, but kind of slow...like he was taking his time. He |
|
||
| wasn't scared of us or anything like that." In appearance, the |
|
||
| humanoid was about the size of a twelve-year-old boy, maybe four feet |
|
||
| tall. He wore no helmet or headgear and was dressed in a gold suit |
|
||
| with no buttons or zippers. His costume was shiny, like metal, in the |
|
||
| reflection of the headlights, but it was not self-luminous. The |
|
||
| humanoid asked numerous questions and ignored the witnesses when they |
|
||
| asked any questions. Hutchins could not remember seeing the feet of |
|
||
| the creature. It was standing on high grass and the feet must have |
|
||
| been hidden. Both men could not really remember the full context of |
|
||
| the "conversation". Hutchins claimed the alien spoke perfect English. |
|
||
| "Didn't have any accent or anything. He acted like he knew exactly |
|
||
| what he was saying and doing...didn't make any quick moves or false |
|
||
| moves. He just stood there and talked to the witnesses." He wanted to |
|
||
| know why both men were dressed alike. His speech was very precise. He |
|
||
| pronounced each work very carefully. When asked where he was from, he |
|
||
| just laughed. The meeting was brief, perhaps only two or three |
|
||
| minutes. Then, Hutchins say, the creature announced, |
|
||
| "I...will...return...in...two...days." He turned, walked slowly back |
|
||
| to the ladder and climbed into the object. The door closed quietly |
|
||
| and the craft began to make a soft whirring sound like an engine with |
|
||
| a muffler on it. The object rose slowly and vanished into the sky. A |
|
||
| local councilman found numerous footprints at the site where the |
|
||
| little man had stood. There was no return visit by the alien. |
