|
||
| |
|
||
| 1933 - At ten o'clock in the morning hundreds of witnesses in |
|
||
| Onkerzeele, Belgium watched a Fatima like solar apparition, with |
|
||
| sparks and flames from a dancing "Sun". (Source: Larry Hatch, U |
|
||
| computer database, citing SOS-OVNI France, Phenomena magazine, issue |
|
||
| # 12). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1950 - At 8:39 a.m. a circular light changed shape and brilliance as |
|
||
| it hovered over Oak Ridge AEC Laboratories, Tennessee. It faded to a |
|
||
| star, then flew away to the northwest. There was radar confirmation |
|
||
| of the sighting from the nearby McGhee Air Force Base. (Source: Bruce |

|
||
| 1954 - At 3:45 a.m. several hundred people, including sentries |
|
||
| guarding the Catete Palace in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil witnessed |
|
||
| a yellow glowing ovoid object that slowed from a high speed and |
|
||
| stopped in just three seconds, and then hovered for 20 minutes. It |
|
||
| illuminated the surface of the water in Guanabara Bay, and finally |
|
||
| climbed up at an oblique angle, and was gone in 4-5 seconds. Two |
|
||
| small jets of exhaust were seen flowing from the lower part of the |
|
||
| object while it was accelerating. (Source: UNICAT, case 557, citing |
|
||
| Colonel Adil de Oliveira, Brazilian Government report dated October |
|
||
| 1956; APRO Bulletin, July 1957). |

|
||
| 1966 - At 4:40 p.m. a 23-year-old man at the eastern shore of Lake |
|
||
| Tiorati in Bear Mountain State Park, Orange County, New York looked |
|
||
| up and saw a silver-brown domed disc-shaped object in the western sky |
|
||
| at 45° elevation, heading northeast. It was wobbling and noiseless. |
|
||
| He was able to take a photograph of the object before it disappeared |
|
||
| over and behind a fire tower on a 1,320 foot hill about half a mile |
|
||
| away. (Sources: NICAP case investigation files; J. Allen Hynek, The |
|

|
||
| in a car five miles north of Wairakei, New Zealand at around 11:45 |
|
||
| p.m. when they drove by a tall being around six feet tall. The man |
|
||
| wore a shiny dark blue or black loose fitting one-piece suit that was |
|
||
| tucked in at the boots. The being also wore gloves, a belt, and a |
|
||
| cylindrical helmet with a clear visor. (Source: Anthony J. Brunt, |

||
| |
|
||
| 1975 – At 7:45 a.m. a "dah-dit" noise accompanied the slow ascent of |
|
||
| an eight-meter wide, gray domed disc over a residential area of Ancy, |
|
||
| France. The object had square shaped windows. It flew away toward the |
|
||
| southeast. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, May 1976). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| A aircraft flying near Maelifelli, Iceland on this day in 1976 picked |
|
||
| up a clear radar image of a UFO at a distance of 100 miles and flying |
|
||
| at 18,000 feet altitude. They tracked the UFO for one minute as it |
|
||
| rushed below and passed their plane at a speed of 3,600 miles per |
|
||
| hour. (Source: International UFO Reporter, March 1977, p. 2). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1976 – At 12:55 a.m. on Soda Springs Mountain Road in Caribou County, |
|
||
| Idaho three police officers had a close encounter with a 30-foot |
|
||
| diameter oval-shaped UFO. The object was devoid of seams or windows, |
|
||
| and had the bulk of three to four cars. It emitted a light green |
|
||
| light and hovered only 60 feet away from them. It made no sound when |
|
||
| hovering, but made a whistling "wind" sound when in motion. (Sources: |
|
||
| J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies case investigations file, |
|
||
| December 1976; International UFO Reporter, February 1977, p. 6). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1976 – Twenty-two hours later at 10:30 p.m. six witnesses, twenty |
|
||
| miles south of Miami, Florida watched an oval glow with a disc-shaped |
|
||
| object inside fly to the south, passing over their heads at only 150 |
|
||
| feet. The object turned and flew away to the west. (Sources: J. Allen |
|
||
| Hynek Center for UFO Studies case investigations file, December 1976; |
|
||
| International UFO Reporter, February 1977, p. 5). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1977 – In Guadalajara, Spain a 34-year-old man, Mr. Miguel Herrero |
|
||
| Sierra was driving his pickup truck down a road at a few minutes past |
|
||
| midnight when the vehicle’s lights, engine, and radio suddenly died. |
|
||
| He pulled to the side of the road but couldn't find anything wrong |
|
||
| with the car. He decided to wait in the truck for help. A man dressed |
|
||
| in a diver’s suit approached and told him through telepathy to come |
|
||
| aboard a hat-shaped UFO, under which there was a cylindrical chamber |
|
||
| that extended to the ground. Inside the object was a 14-meter wide |
|
||
| circular room with smooth walls. Mr. Herrero stayed inside for |
|
||
| approximately three hours, communicating telepathically with the |
|
||
| occupants of the craft. He was released later, and discovered that he |
|
||
| had a small puncture wound on his arm, as if they had taken a blood |
|
||
| sample from him although he did not recall them doing so. (Source: |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1980 – Several witnesses on a farm in Colesburg, Eastern Cape, South |
|
||

|
||
| light that reached downward to the ground for five minutes on an |
|
||
| otherwise clear night. (Source: Cynthia Hind, MUFON UFO Journal, May |

|
||
| UFOs: Close Encounters in the Mountain State, p. 61, citing field |
|
||
| investigator D. Church). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1996 – Two witnesses in Eugene, Oregon saw a nocturnal light |
|
||
| zigzagging at a high altitude and making ninety-degree turns at 4:30 |

||
| Stockport Railway Station in Stockport, Greater Manchester, England. |

|
||
| evening, at 8:00 p.m., a circular red light was seen high up in the |
|
||
| sky moving quickly. It slowed down, accelerated, and then wobbled |
|
||
| from side to side. At 8:50 in Crawley, West Sussex, England an object |
|
||
| looking like a rounded triangle was sighted. It was longer at one |
|
||
| point, with a giant light in the center. (Source: British Ministry of |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2004 - Several strange lights were seen from Cau-Cau, Horcon, Chile |
|
||
| starting at 8:30 p.m., engaging in complex maneuvers. A dot was first |
|
||
| seen, then a vertical line that turned to the left. Contrails left in |
|
||
| the wake of the objects and their irregular, sudden |
|
||
| maneuvers suggested they were not conventional aircraft. Photographs |
|
||
| were reportedly taken. (Source: Scott Corrales, ufoinfo.com, report |
