||
| |
|
||
| 1955 - At 3:00 p.m. MST a hovering, rectangular-shaped object was |
|
||
| seen rocking in the sky over Tucson, Arizona. One hour later, at |
|
||
| about 5:00 p.m. CST, a car driving ten miles north of Huntley, |
|
||
| Illinois was followed for ten minutes by three elongated "balloons." |
|
||
| The objects were each about seven meters long and showed eight red |
|
||
| lights. (Sources: Project Blue Book; Jacques Vallee, Passport to |
|
||
| Magonia, A Century of Landings, p. 249 case 362). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - At 8:15 a.m. a small metallic disc flew over some gardens in |
|
||
| Kyoto, Japan at a low altitude. It then made a fast exit at a sharp |
|
||
| angle up into the sky. (Source: Loren E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of |
|
||
| the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1957: January-March 22, p. 60). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1958 - At 7:45 p.m. a man observed a balloon-shaped object land on |
|
||
| the airfield in Tampa, Florida and then take off slowly and hover at |
|
||
| 250 meters altitude before disappearing. It had a bright light source |
|
||
| on it. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of |
|
||
| Landings, case 461). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - A six-meter in diameter disc hovered 60 meters over a quarry |
|
||
| in Mount Airy, North Carolina at 7:30 p.m. It had body lights and was |
|
||
| witnessed by two children. The sighting lasted about two minutes. |

|
||
| A History. 1959: January-March, p. 72). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - Mr. Schedelbauer, a 36-year-old newsman, was driving his car |
|
||
| near Labuttendorf, Austria at 1:30 a.m. when he had a close encounter |
|
||
| with a round, glowing aerial object. He was able to take a photograph |
|
||
| of the luminous UFO, but he also received burns on his face and hands |
|
||
| from the encounter. (Sources: Waveney Girvan, Flying Saucer Review, |
|
||
| July-August 1960, p. 16; NICAP UFO Investigator, March-April 1960, p. |
|
||
| 3; George D. Fawcett, Flying Saucers, September 1961, p. 48). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1964 - An elongated, silver object was seen hovering in the sky for |
|
||
| two minutes over Grassmere, South Australia. (Source: Flying Saucers, |
|
||
| January-February 1966, p. 53). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - At 1:55 p.m. John F. Reeves, a retired 65 year old, was |
|
||
| hunting for snakes in the woods in Brooksville, Florida when he |
|
||
| observed a reddish-purple saucer-shaped object on the ground. It was |
|
||
| 30 feet in diameter and 6-7 feet thick, and stood on four legs, with |
|
||
| a clear dome on top and a row of vanes like an outer rim around the |
|
||
| circumference. It also had a set of stairs. He crept to within 100 |
|
||
| feet, and after watching it for 10 minutes he saw a robot-like being, |
|
||
| about five feet tall, wearing a silver one-piece uniform with a |
|
||
| transparent "fishbowl" helmet. His hands were gloved and he wore |
|
||
| metallic looking boots. His eyes were set far apart and he had a |
|
||
| pointed chin. The being walked walked to the craft, then returned |
|
||
| with a box that emitted two bright flashes when pointed at the |
|
||
| witness; Reeves took it to be somekind of camera. The humanoid then |
|
||
| re-entered the craft by walking up a small retractable stairway, and |
|
||
| the object rose vertically with a whistling noise. Reeves found at |
|
||
| the site many dumbbell-shaped footprints, and four roughly |
|
||
| equidistant 6 inch holes, left by the landing gear. There were also |
|
||
| two folded sheets of thin tissue like paper that bore messages |
|
||
| written in an unknown alphabet. Reeves subsequently had further |
|
||
| sightings and contacts. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, March-April 1965, |

||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - Two years later two silver metallic objects chased an airplane |
|
||
| near an aerodrome in Harlin, Queensland, Australia at 10:30 p.m. The |
|
||
| UFOs then moved back and forth in the sky, vanished and reappeared, |
|
||
| cruised around the sky lazily, and then vanished. (Source: Michael |
|
||
| Hervey, UFOs Over the Southern Hemisphere, p. 152). |
|
||
| |

||
| 1966 - A woman watched a flashing light the sky two miles east of |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - Two to four silver lights or disc-shaped objects flew over |
|
||
| White Sands, New Mexico at 10:25 a.m. and were detected on radar at |
|
||
| an altitude of seven kilometers. They circled the White Sands missile |
|
||
| base and flew away toward the east. They flew at an estimated speed |
|
||
| of 2,000 mph. Several silver discs with green glowing bottoms were |
|
||
| sighted by a separate observer in Las Cruces, New Mexico at 11:30 |
|
||

|
||
| Dogs were barking at the time. Two hours later in Piggot, Arkansas, |
|
||
| which is five miles to the northwest of Patterson, two high school |
|
||
| teachers witnessed four lights in the sky. The first hovered at |
|
||
| treetop level, then was joined by the second light, followed by two |
|
||
| more. The four objects maneuvered about in different directions, |
|
||
| hovered, and then flew away. (Source: NICAP files, citing Memphis |
|
||

|
||

| |
|
||
| 1970 - On this night a domed disc UFO looking like the "scoutship" |
|
||
| described by UFO contactee George Adamski (and widely believed to be |
|
||
| a hoaxed photograph by him) descended in a back-and-forth motion in |
|
||
| Falkenberg, Sweden and was seen by several witnesses. The object had |
|
||
| two antennae, and TV interference was noted in the area at the time. |
|
||

|
||
| UFO, surrounded by a glowing aura, was seen in Dorking, England. |
|
||
| Inside the object was a red ball, which twisted and turned, shooting |
|
||
| off sparks. It flew in a straight path to the west, but at one point |
|
||

|
||

|
||
| attempted to land in front of a car with the Forster family inside, |
|
||
| while the children in the car screamed. The UFO was a disc the size |
|
||
| of a car, white in color with lights all around it, and sticklike |
|
||
| legs or landing gear. In their panic they repeatedly honked their car |
|
||
| horn, which alerted farmer Roger Weber, who came out of his farmhouse |
|
||
| and guided the family home. The UFO flew off. (Source: Jay Rath, The |
