|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  October 22 |
| |
| 1954 - At four o'clock in the morning an object that resembled a |
| white cloud with lights on each end descended over a country road in |
| Segre, Maine-et-Loire, France. It illuminated the road like daylight. |
| (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 4039, citing Jean |
| Sider, Dossier 1954 et l'Imposture Rationaliste, p. 119). |
| |
| 1954 - At 7:20 p.m. engine of a motorcycle died in Ecaillon, Nord, |
| France and then a cigar-shaped UFO was seen in a field by the rider. |
| Four of more beings were seen inside the craft. One spoke an |
| unintelligible language which sounded like "Chinese" to the listener. |
| (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case 4039, citing Jean |
| Sider, Dossier 1954 et l'Imposture Rationaliste, p. 216). |
| |
| 1954 - At 11:00 p.m. a disc-shaped object emerged from the ocean off |
| the coast of Guethary, Pyrenees-Atlantiques, France. When it dove |
| down it illuminated the surface of the water. It then made a final |
| ascent and flew away. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case |
| 4040, citing Jean Sider, Dossier 1954 et l'Imposture Rationaliste, p. |
| 118). |
| |
| 1954 - At 3:15 p.m. a cigar-shaped object with portholes maneuvered |
| in the sky over a school in Marysville, Ohio accompanied by many |
| smaller discs. It was witnessed by 60 students of Jerome Elementary |
| School and teachers Rodney Warrick and Mrs. George Dittmar, as well |
| as thousands of witnesses at an afternoon high school football game. |
| The silver cigar-shaped object traveled at high speed, and wafted a |
| blanket of a web-like material, commonly referred to as "angel hair," |
| which fell to the ground over a three mile area. The UFO flew off |
| quickly in a westward direction. Within minutes of touching the |
| substance it would disappear, leaving a green stain on the fingers. |

| |
| 1957 - UFO was seen on the ground near the beach in Praia Grande, |
| Santa Catarina state, Brazil. It Illuminated the area with beams of |
| light, it took off toward the east, then ascended vertically into the |
| sky very fast. (Source: Loren E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the |
| Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1957: October-November 2, p. 61). |
| |
| 1959 - A disc-shaped object paced a car in Cumberland, Maryland at |
| dusk, and stayed 50 feet overhead while the car's engine, lights and |
| radio stopped working. The disc then shot up into the clouds, and the |
| car returned to normal operation. (Source: Coral & Jim Lorenzen, |
| UFOs: The Whole Story, p. 104). |
| |
| 1965 - On or about this date Jose Camilo Filho saw two creatures near |
| a landed object in Canhotinho, Pernambuco State, Brazil. (Source: |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # |
| 711, citing Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue # 84). |
| |
| 1967 - Tracks of tiny creatures were discovered in a field in |
| Charleswood, British Columbia, Canada clustered around a small pile |
| of stones laid in a circular heap, after 17 witnesses reported seeing |
| mysterious lights in the area. (Source: Dennis Stamey, Flying Saucers |
| magazine, June 1970, p. 36). |
| |
| 1972 - Enrique Mercado, who had been involved in other alien |
| encounters, was lounging on the terrace of his house in Mexico City, |
| Mexico at 8 p.m. when a very tall young man suddenly appeared behind |
| him. The man asked: "Enrique, do you want to come with me?" Enrique |
| agreed. The young man straddled Enrique as he grabs a girdle on the |
| man's coveralls. Then they fly through the air, inside an apparently |
| invisible beam, into a hovering saucer-shaped object. Inside the |
| craft Mercado is surprised at the apparent simplicity of the craft's |
| furnishings. There is a table with multi-colored buttons, a screen on |
| the wall, and two armchairs. The saucer then flew into a hovering |
| mothership, around which other saucers were hovering. Mercado is then |
| given a green coverall to wear and he is introduced to the commander |
| of the vessel, a huge man over two meters tall, who wore a blue |
| coverall. The commander's name was Yastek, and he showed Mercado what |
| he called "sky charts". Enrique is informed he is at a point some |
| 100,000 kilometers above Mexico City. Suddenly, he finds himself on |
| the balcony of his house, and two hours have elapsed. (Source: Albert |
| S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1972, citing UFO Geheimnisse, |
| Berlin, January 1998). |
| |
| 1973 - At 7:35 p.m. two people and three dogs in a car just west of |
| Blacy, Marne, France encountered a silent, faceted sphere over the |
| roadside, causing them temporary paralysis. The object turned and |
| flew to the north, then shot off to the east. (Source: Bernard |
| Vochelet, GEPA Phenomenes Spatiaux, June 1975, p. 16). |
| |
| 1973 - At 2:00 p.m. a globe-shaped object was seen hovering in the |
| sky for 30 minutes over Sudbury, Massachusetts by Ms. J. Margolin and |
| a friend. Some web-like "angel hair" material fell from the sky. |
| (Source: NICAP UFO Investigator, March 1974, p. 1). |
| |
| 1973 - The first in a series of three independent observations of two |
| silver-suited, four foot tall humanoids occurred in Hartford City, |
| Indiana on this night. While driving home Ms. Debbie Carne saw the |
| creatures slowly cross the road in front of her. As she drove past |
| them on the roadside they made a loud noise and raised their arms as |
| if to scare her. About 15 minutes after the first encounter by Ms. |
| Carne, Mr. & Mrs. Donathan approached the same area in a car and saw |
| the same or a similar pair of beings on the road. They were described |
| as wearing bright silver suits, straight in form and with no features |
| noticed except box-like feet. The pair moved in a clumsy, flopping |
| manner as they tried to get off the road ahead of the approaching |
| car. Mr. Donathan described this as a dancing effect. A snake-like |
| pattern of lights was seen dancing over the field. The next day |
| imprints were found in the field where the beings had last been seen. |

| Donald Worley, Official UFO, January 1976, p. 16; David F. Webb & Ted |
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, cases 1973-54 and |
| 1973-55; David F. Webb, 1973, The Year of The Humanoids). |
| |
| 1975 - At noon a 5-year-old cow was found dead and mutilated in a |
| field near Hayden, Colorado. An unidentified helicopter was seen in |
| the area at the time. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case |
| 11474). |
| |
| 1975 - At 1:30 p.m. a brilliant white domed disc was seen over trees, |
| then angled down over the town of Artix, Pyrenees-Atlantiques, France |
| before ascending and flying off to the west. (Source: Lumieres dans |
| la Nuit, May 1977). |
| |
| 1975 - At dusk a disc-shaped object with wings silently |
| circled buildings in downtown Covington, Kentucky and then hovered. |
| It had rotating lights.  (Sources: Leonard H. Stringfield, Skylook, |
| January 1976, p. 5; Leonard H. Stringfield, Situation Red: The UFO |
| Siege, p. 18). |
| |
| 1977 - At 7:30 p.m., in the second sighting by Dr. Wellaide Carvalho |
| in Colares, Para State, Brazil a bright metallic object, thimble |
| shaped, was seen spinning over a beach at 100 meters altitude and a |
| distance of 1500 meters. It moved in a wavy rocking motion, making |
| quick stops. (Source: Bob Pratt, Operacao Prato, p. 15). |
| |
| 1978 - The Minister of Agriculture and several other dignitaries saw |
| a flying object hover for several minutes over the city of Arequito, |
| Santa Fe, Argentina on this night. The object had segmented orange |
| luminosities glowing from compartments or portholes. (Source: Jane |
| Thomas, UFO Newsclipping Service, February 14, 1979, citing La |
| Nacion, October 24, 1978). |
| |
| 2002 - At 10:25 p.m. in Granisle, British Columbia a large glowing |
| orange disc hovered over an old copper mine on an island in the lake. |
| It rose up, stopped, moved sideways, then dropped down. The intensity |
| of its light changed when it moved. It cast a reflection on the lake, |
| and finally flew off toward the north at a low altitude. (Sources: |
| UFO Magazine, February 2003, p. 23; Geoff Dittman, 2002 Canadian UFO |
| Survey, case 447, citing HBCCUFO). |
