| |
|
||
| 1954 – At 3:00 a.m. on this day in Valencia, Venezuela an employee of |
|
||
| the Barbula Sanatorium saw a luminous UFO on the ground but decided |
|
||
| not to report it until another employee, three hours later, saw the |
|
||
| same craft. It took off soon after the second witness spotted it |
|
||
| (Source: Passport to Magonia, A Century of Landings, case 357; Coral |
|
||
| E. Lorenzen, Flying Saucer Occupants, p. 52). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1958 – At 12:55 a.m. two policemen, Officers Arboreen and Talada of |
|
||
| the Dunellen Township police department in Middlesex County, New |
|
||
| Jersey, watched in amazement as a glowing red, football-shaped UFO |
|
||
| came directly at their police cruiser. The UFO came to an abrupt stop |
|
||
| a short distance away, pulsated while hovering, and then shot |
|
||
| straight up into the sky and was gone. (Source: NICAP case |
|
||
| investigation files). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1958 - Not far from Domsten, Sweden Hans Gustavsson, age 35, and Stig |
|
||
| Rydberg, 30, saw something strange in the woods near the village of |
|
||
| Haganas and stopped their car to observe it. They discovered that it |
|
||
| was a disc about five meters wide, set on tripod landing gear. Next |
|
||
| they were suddenly attacked by four gray-colored creatures described |
|
||
| as "fluid" in appearance, but one of the men reached the car and blew |
|
||
| the horn for help. The beings then fled and the craft took off, |
|
||
| emitting "paralyzing vibrations." (Source: Passport to Magonia, A |
|
||
| Century of Landings, case 478). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1958 – On that same day at four o’clock in the afternoon in France, |
|
||
| or nine hours later, a disc-shaped UFO was seen near the ground in |
|
||
| Clermont-Ferrand, Puy-de-Dome department. The 20-meter diameter |
|
||
| object caused some damage on the ground. (Sources: Jacques Vallee, |
|
||
| Computerized catalogue, case # 2802, citing Quincy; Passport to |
|
||
| Magonia, A Century of Landings, case 477). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 – At 2:20 a.m. on a clear night with the full Moon high in the |
|
||
| sky, eight disc-shaped craft maneuvered and seemed to be playing tag |
|
||
| over the shoreline in Redondo Beach, California. They were bright |
|
||
| yellow and bronze in color. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer |
|
||
| database, case 5875, citing Loren Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the |
|
||
| Apocalypse. UFOs: A History, 1959 (volume 4), p. 56). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1965 – A 15-year-old youth named Burns was driving home in his pickup |
|
||
| truck in Herman, Minnesota at 11:45 p.m. when a glowing green |
|
||
| disc-shaped UFO suddenly appeared, hovering six feet over the road. |
|
||
| The object made a whistling sound while the truck’s engine stalled |
|
||
| and its headlights died. The object began to glow red and rose |
|
||
| straight up into the air, giving off sparks. The witness lost |
|
||
| consciousness. When he awoke, he found that his truck had been turned |
|
||
| around and was resting in a roadside ditch. (Sources: Flying Saucer |

|
||
| 1968 – Seven people saw a domed disc with an antenna move back and |
|
||
| forth over a school in Havelock, New Zealand at 11:20 in the morning. |

|

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1970 - A humanoid figure about 90 centimeters (three feet) in height |
|
||
| was seen floating up into a transparent round object on this night in |
|
||
| Itaperuna, Brazil. Two other beings of the same stature were seen |
|
||
| inside the object. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1971 – Mr. da Silva e Souza, 60, saw an intense blue-lighted object |
|
||
| on the ground near the airport in Itaperuna, Brazil. The UFO was |
|
||
| about eight feet long, transparent, ovoid shaped, and was illuminated |
|
||
| from within by a blue light. A short humanoid, less than a meter |
|
||
| tall, walked around the craft once, and then seemed to float up into |
|
||
| the air and enter the craft from above, feet first. There were two |
|
||
| other short beings seated inside. The craft then flew away. (Source: |

||
| Jean-Claude Bourret, The Crack in the Universe: What you have not |
|
||
| been told about flying saucers, p. 118, citing a report from the |

|
||
| 1973 – Two men, Klinn and Wagner, sighted a huge, yellowish glowing |
|
||
| blob over Pacific Palisades, California at 2:15 a.m. It had flashing |
|
||
| lights forming a triangle. They watched it through a 16x telescope. |
|
||
| Forty-five minutes later a huge cigar-shaped UFO with four or five |
|
||
| along the side and an appendage appeared in the sky, followed by a |
|
||
| domed disc. The entire event lasted 82 minutes, until 3:37 a.m. when |
|
||
| the lights went off. (Source: Flying Saucers, December 1974, p. 10). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1973 – In the afternoon Mrs. Brooker saw a cone-shaped UFO with |
|
||
| flashing lights ascend vertically “very, very fast” leaving behind a |
|
||
| trail of smoke in the eastern sky over Norman, Oklahoma. That same |
|
||
| day a cattle mutilation was reported having occurred two miles east |
|
||
| of Concordia, Kansas. (Sources: Norman Transcript, December 21, 1973; |
|
||
| Kansas City Times, December 22, 1973). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1973 – That night three teenage girls sighted an oval-shaped object |
|
||
| with portholes while driving on a highway eight miles east of Casino, |
|
||
| New South Wales, Australia. The UFO made sharp maneuvers, circled the |
|
||
| city, flew up high in the sky and came back down to a low altitude. |
|
||
| It changed color from red to green to white, and was surrounded by a |
|
||
| blue haze. (Source: Richmond River (NSW) Express, January 4, 1978). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1976 – There were thirteen UFO reports in the early morning hours |
|
||
| from various provinces of Spain, including Granada, Malaga, Valencia, |
|
||
| Murcia, Alicante, Melilla, and Cadiz. At 1:50 a.m. several witnesses |
|
||
| watched a metallic appearing object radiate luminous rays of light |
|
||
| and light up the sky with an intense luminosity in Malaga, Spain. A |
|
||
| few minutes later yellow, red, and bluish green balls of light flew |
|
||
| over Valencia, Alicante, and Almeria. Objects flew rapidly toward the |
|
||
| south or southwest. At 2:00 a.m. an enormous blue violet ball of |
|
||
| light flew over Malaga at high speed. Ten minutes later a triangular |
|
||
| or cone-shaped UFO, pale blue in color, flew from the north to the |
|
||
| south over Murcia. A huge ovoid object, blue violet in color, was |
|
||
| also seen flying in the same direction over Algeciras, Spain at about |
|
||
| the same time. On the same day the Sloop Rippe disappeared |
|
||
| mysteriously in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Florida, |
|
||
| southeast of Fort Lauderdale. (Sources: Sanchez de Medina Fermin, |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1978 – At five o’clock in the morning three people on the balcony of |
|
||
| their house south of the city of Sorrento, Italy watched a huge |
|
||
| sphere low in the sky over the shoreline of the Mediterranean. It |
|
||
| made an odd noise like radio static, and vanished. Less than three |
|
||
| hours later at 7:20 GMT a silver triangle-shaped object crossed the |
|
||
| sky at a high altitude flying from west to east over the town of |
|
||
| Yarnton, Oxfordshire, England. At eight p.m. that evening an orange |
|
||
| ovoid object left a dark mass near the ground for 30 minutes in the |
|
||
| town of Tarranto, Italy. The two witnesses fled in terror. Radio |
|
||
| interference was experienced at the same time. (Sources: Lumieres |
|
||
| dans la Nuit, issues 216 and 240; D. N. Mansell, Awareness, April |
|

|
||
| |

||

|
||

|
||
| highway and “went down behind some trees near the Holdbrook School.” |
