|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  February 10 |
| |
| 1951 - A giant, bright orange-red disc was observed by the pilot of a |
| four-engine, U.S. Navy R-5D transport flying 90 miles from Gander, |
| Labrador, Canada. The UFO maneuvered nearer to the plane, which was |
| flying at 10,000 feet altitude at the time. The UFO sighting was |
| dubbed the "Gander UFO case." (Sources: John R. Colombo, UFOs over |
| Canada: Personal Accounts of Sightings and Close Encounters, p. 211; |
| Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 13). |
| |
| 1955 - In Altamira, Venezuela at 9:30 p.m. a teenage couple saw a |
| huge disc-shaped UFO fly from horizon to horizon. It had two pulsing |
| blue lights on the bottom, and was in view for more than six minutes. |
| (Source: Coral E. Lorenzen, UFOs: The Whole Story, p. 64). |
| |
| 1956 - On this night in Costa Mesa, California two flame-colored |
| discs hovered over the Marine Corp Air Base for two minutes. They |
| flew away when approached by a plane. (Source: APRO Bulletin, |
| January-February 1956). |
| |
| 1967 - Several people in Haliburton, Ontario witnessed a large |
| yellow, glowing object fly over at treetop level at 2:30 a.m. It made |
| a loud roaring noise. At 3:42 a.m. an eight-meter wide blue disc was |
| seen hovering very low over the NASA/AEC nuclear facility at the Plum |
| Brook Naval Air Station in Erie County, Ohio. It was seen by a male |
| witness as it was about 1.5 miles away from his car. The disc moved |
| toward the ground and heavy static came over the car radio as he |
| tried to contact his headquarters at the Air Station. (Sources: |
| NICAP, citing the Lindsay Post, February 18, 1967; Mark Rodeghier, |
| UFO Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, case 185, citing NICAP |
| UFO Investigator, March-April 1967). |
| |
| 1967 - At 5:30 that same evening a dark, triangular shaped UFO flew |
| blunt-end forward over North Woodstock, Connecticut and hovered over |
| a farm. The object had a white light in each corner, and was quiet |
| when hovering, but made a roaring sound when it moved off. Television |
| interference was also reported during the sighting. At the same time |
| in nearby Worcester, Massachusetts a UFO with three bright lights |
| hovered over a house. The refrigerator contents reportedly froze, and |
| the color TV set in the house had the color fade out of the picture |
| during the encounter. After five minutes the UFO flew south, stopped |
| briefly, and then sped away. Ninety minutes later two UFOs were seen |
| circling low over a house in Mahopec, Putnam County, New York. Six |
| human-appearing occupants were seen on board the craft, and one of |
| them appeared to wave at the two witnesses, who drove their car |
| following the UFO. Reportedly one of the witnesses received a |
| telepathic message from the occupants. (Sources: The Hartford |
| Courant, February 11, 1967; Worcester Gazette, February 20, 1967; |
| Fred Dennis, on-site investigation, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid |
| Reports, case A1556). |

| |
| 1969 - An abduction occurred in the early morning hours of this day |
| in Green Cove Springs, Florida. At around three a.m. two single |
| adults, a man and a woman, "Francis" and "Wells", were driving by |
| automobile along a highway when they had three unaccounted hours of |
| missing time. Under hypnosis in 1977 they recalled being in a curved |
| hallway, and seeing four short, Grey aliens who had large eyes and |
| ears, no hair, small slit mouths, and wore tight coveralls. The |
| aftereffects of their encounter included headaches, depression, and |
| skin rashes. (Source: Paul Krutz, Fate, and HUMCAT: Catalogue of |
| Humanoid Reports, case A1666). |
| |
| 1969 - Later that same night in Dartmouth, Massachusetts at 10:30 |
| p.m. a truck driver saw a fiery ball hovering over some snow covered |
| trees. When he approached to within 200 feet with a flashlight it |
| accelerated away at a 45-degree angle, causing the snow on the |
| treetops to swirl through the air. (Source: Ray Fowler, UFOs: |
| Interplanetary Visitors, p. 355). |

| |
| 1972 - At shortly after seven o'clock in the evening a dome-shaped |
| UFO flew from north to south over Fort Duchesne, Utah and was seen by |
| three women hovering over a field for ten minutes. It then shot away |
| to the north. (Source: Frank Salisbury, The Utah UFO Display, case |
| A80). |
| |
| 1975 - At 7:00 a.m. a silver metallic sphere descended over Foligno, |
| Italy made a ninety-degree turn at ground level, and then shot away |
| fast. (Source: Maurizio Verga, ITACAT: Italian UFO Catalogue). |
| |
| 1975 - Later that evening at 6:00 p.m. a man in Poulderat, France |
| Messr. J. Raphalan saw a red luminous rectangular object hovering |
| over his farm. It shrank to a band of light, and then disappeared. At |
| 8:20 p.m. Messr. M. Fraisse, age 33, witnessed a dark, |
| helicopter-shaped object hover silently over a field for ten minutes |
| in Carces, France. It emitted beams of light, an caused TV |
| interference at the time. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, March 1975 |
| and May 1975). |
| |
| 1975 - At 7:00 p.m. in Annandale, New York two 15-year-old teenagers |
| saw a low-level, 20-meter diameter disc for ten minutes, then watched |
| it shrink away to nothing. At the site there were snapped tree |
| branches and scorched earth. (Sources: CUFOS files, report dated |
| February 27, 1975; NICAP UFO Investigator, April 1975; Skylook, |
| December 1975, p. 16; Margaret Sachs, Celestial Passengers, p. 108). |
| |
| 1976 - In Hamden, Connecticut on Denslow Hill two 14-year-old |
| teenagers, Grey and Barnet, saw two very short humanoid beings |
| shuffle rapidly across a road. They wore purple-colored luminous |
| one-piece suits and their waists were 20-22 inches above the ground. |
| When the boys followed them a bright white, lemon-shaped UFO blinked |
| on, and took off into the air only 15 feet away from them. (Source: |
| James P. Barrett, case investigation files, and HUMCAT: Catalogue of |
| Humanoid Encounters, case A1457). |
| |
| 1977 - From a window in her house Ms. Lois Stovall of Tucson, Arizona |
| saw a luminous object in the sky approach her house from the north. |
| She and her grandmother, Mrs. Alice Buckner, went our to the yard at |
| 7:30 p.m. for a better view and saw it hovering over a small tree |
| less than 50 feet away. It was capsule shaped with a cylindrical |
| vertical axis, and transparent on the side facing them with dark |
| vertical bars. Through the transparent surface they could see a |
| flame-like light and a human-shaped figure, gray all over gray, that |
| looked puffed up like a balloon. It had ridges or rings running round |
| the appendages, like the Michelin Man. She could not see any hands or |
| feet. This figure in an inflated suit was about four feet tall and |
| was standing crouched over in a space only barely big enough for him. |
| The light was coming from between his feet. Mrs. Buckner walked |
| directly beneath the object and tried to touch it but it was hovering |
| two feet too high. She could see there was a faceplate in the being's |
| suit, and she could barely make out some sort of face behind it. The |
| object began to ascend, and soon passed out of sight to the south. |
| Ms. Stovall saw three helicopters with glowing red cabin lights |
| flying very low over the adjacent school grounds. The investigators |
| were unable to find any plausible source for these mystery aircraft. |
| Mrs. Dessie Turner, a neighbor, also saw the object while it hovered, |
| and estimated that it was 6.5 feet high and 2.5 feet in diameter. She |
| thought she could see a shadowy figure inside. She also saw the |
| helicopters. (Sources: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |
| Catalogue of Humanoid Encounters, case 1977-8, citing Coral Lorenzen, |
| APRO; Coral & Jim Lorenzen, APRO Bulletin). |
| |
| 1981 - The witness had parked her car in her apartment parking lot |
| in Auburn, Washington at 11:35 p.m. when she saw a huge lighted |
| object with a ring of flashing lights. The UFO left but a second |
| smaller craft appeared and descended with a falling leaf motion. The |
| witness ran to her apartment and apparently blacked out. Under |
| hypnosis she recalled that a light shone on her and she suddenly |
| found herself in a domed room with smooth white floors, walls and |
| ceiling. The room contained a desk-like object with lights and an |
| examination table. She undressed and two beings entered, held her by |
| her arms and pressed her down on the table. A third being examined |
| her abdomen. The beings were humanoid with light bulb shaped heads |
| and with large unblinking eyes, small noses and ears, and slit-like |
| mouths. They were thin with sloping shoulders, long hanging arms with |
| 4 long fingers and had grayish skin. They wore metallic blue coverall |
| uniforms with an insignia of a triangle inside a circle on the chest. |
| Another being wore a reddish orange colored uniform. They conversed |
| with the witness by using telepathy. (Source: Thomas E Bullard, UFO |
| Abductions: The Measure of A Mystery; Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |
| Contact Database, case # 463). |
| |
| 1982 - At shortly after midnight a UFO with an intense, lime green |
| light hovered just six feet above the snow-covered ground in |
| Willernie, Minnesota. Five spots of fire fell to the ground as the |
| object rose, and melted holes in the snow. (Source: Joe Twohy, |
| newspaper clipping). |
| |
| 1982 - On this day in the Black Sea six Soviet sailors discover and |
| investigate a "disabled ship" in the fog. They are missing for five |
| days. When they are returned they report that they had been pulled up |
| into a cigar-shaped UFO, and the beings onboard the UFO communicated |
| with them by gestures. One of the men reportedly went insane, dove |
| overboard, and was drowned. (Sources: Thomas E. Bullard, UFO |
| Abductions: The Measure of a Mystery, case 74, citing the National |
| Enquirer, November 2, 1982). |
| |
| 1982 - On the same day as the alleged disappearance of the Soviet |
| sailors a close encounter occurred in Escanaba, Wisconsin. At 11:35 |
| p.m. on Highway C537 three seventeen-year-old young women were |
| driving in a car near a river when they encountered a low flying |
| domed disc. The mist from the rear of the object looked like "lit up |
| snowflakes." The rim around the bottom of the UFO had red windows all |
| the way around it, and a red light shone through the windows. Their |
| sighting lasted seven minutes. (Source: Kenneth Schellhase, |
| International UFO Reporter, May-June 1982, p. 8). |
| |
| 1989 - In Fyffe, Alabama a lighted triangular-shaped object with |
| rounded corners flew around in the sky and was watched for more than |
| an hour by four witnesses, including police. It flew over the police |
| cruiser at an estimated distance of 1,500 meters at a steady speed, |
| and made no sound. There were other sightings in surrounding |
| communities, including De Kalb City, Dawson, Dog Town, and Lick |
| Skillet. (Source: Rheta Grimsley Johnson, Commercial Appeal, March |
| 15, 1989). |
| |
| 1995 - Evan Canoose and two of his friends had been camping in the |
| area of Larch Mountain Honor Camp near Vancouver, Washington. At 6:30 |
| a.m. Mr. Canoose was alone when he saw a strange creature about 30-40 |
| feet away. It had an peculiar "out of focus" quality. He said that he |
| and the creature stared at each other for 45 seconds. He described |
| the creature as built like an orangutan, with a reddish-orange color, |
| a wide chest and waist, and a black, flat face with black chest |
| markings. It occasionally moved its right arm and hand back and |
| forth. The witness heard no noises nor detected any odors during the |
| encounter. Evan estimated the creature's height at six feet four |
| inches tall, based on where it stood next to a tree. Feeling uneasy, |
| Canoose went to his car and did not see the "blurry" creature leave. |
| He did not tell his companions about his encounter until their trip |
| home. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1995, |
| citing Peter Byrne, The Western Bigfoot Society Newsletter, issue # |
| 44). |
| |
| 1996 - The witness woke up at two a.m. in Huon Valley, Tasmania, |
| Australia to find her bedroom lit up, and she had an overwhelming |
| feeling to go outside. From the verandah she saw the source of light |
| to be a bright long elliptical shape about 50cm away in the paddock. |
| There was a brilliant bluish white light and a metallic smell you |
| could almost taste. Standing in the garden was a tall thin figure |
| over two meters tall. The figure beckoned the witness with its left |
| hand. She walked down the verandah steps then suddenly became alarmed |
| and returned back home. She threw some furniture outside, and then |
| everything went dark. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| Database 1996, case #2606, citing the Tasmania UFOIC). |
| |
| 1996 - The witness was at an Italian restaurant in Alice Springs, |
| Northern Territory, Australia when she noticed a short Grey, |
| troll-like entity walk up to the restaurant, climb up the steps, |
| stand still and stare briefly at the witness before disappearing |
| around the corner. Others in the city reported seeing objects over |
| the area and possibly other entity sightings. (Source: Albert S. |
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1996, case #3358, citing Peter |
| Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, February 1996 |
| webpage). |
| |
| 1996 - On this night at 9:45 p.m. a dozen blinking lights and a solid |
| orange light hovered in the western sky over the San Luis Valley. |
| Healing arts students coming from a class in Crestone, Colorado saw |
| and reported them. (Source: Christopher O'Brien, Enter the Valley, p. |
| 309). |
| |
| 2000 - At 9:00 p.m. an orange disc-shaped UFO was seen 100 meters |
| away at low altitude in Pontelongo, Veneto, Italy. It had stong beams |
| of light. Suddenly it was gone. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer |
| database, case #18134, citing UFO Roundup). |
