| |
| 1889 - On this evening in Catonsville, Maryland near Baltimore a |
| luminous cylindrical object passed overhead, then appeared to descend |
| nearthe village while following the course of the Patapsco River. The |
| landscape beneath the object was lit up as bright as a carbon-arc |
| light, causing alarm among the residents. (Source: Jerome Clark, |
| International UFO Reporter, Spring 2003, p. 21). |
| |
| 1949 - At 18:40 p.m. two people driving near East Ganado Mission, |
| Arizona saw a greenish white fireball hover, then arc downward toward |
| the west. (Source: Project Blue Book files counted in official |
| statistics; Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. Volume 2: 1949, p. 21). |
| |
| 1951 - U.S. Air Force pilots Cocker and Spradley saw a flat, round |
| white UFO hovering as they were flying near Alamogordo, New Mexico. |

| August 1951, p. 16; Richard M. Dolan, UFO's and the National Security |
| State: Chronology of a Cover-up 1941-1973, p. 400). |
| |
| 1960 - At 4:40 p.m. a silver cigar-shaped object streaked through the |
| sky over Nome, Alaska on a curved flight trajectory. There were four |
| or more witnesses. (Sources: NICAP UFO Investigator, March 1960, p. |
| 8, citing Anchorage Daily News, February 15, 1960; APRO Bulletin, |
| March-April 1960; Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence (Volume I), p. 118, |
| citing the Fairbanks Daily, February 16, 1960). |
| |
| 1965 - Walking along the beach near Guarani, Brazil five local |
| residents saw a large flying object land. Two of them approached to |
| within 60 feet and hid behind a sand dune. They saw three eight-foot |
| tall beings, very thin in build, emerge from the craft. They wore |
| dark, tight-fitting one-piece suits. There were later found landing |
| imprints and footprints at the landing site. (Source: Timothy Green |
| Beckley, Saga UFO Special, March 1972, p. 23; David F. Webb & Ted |
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case A1552, citing |
| Beckley). |
| |
| 1967 - In Tuscumbia, Missouri at seven o'clock in the morning a Mr. |
| Edwards saw a disc hovering just off ground. It was apparently |
| resting on a shaft in a muddy field, and was rocking back and forth. |
| Several small humanoid beings, grayish green in color, moved around |
| rapidly beneath it. The creatures had very wide set eyes and no |
| visible legs, but they did have quick moving arms. After about five |
| minutes they disappeared behind the shaft, the object rocked, took |
| off, then sped away. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, September-October 1969, |
| p. 5; Ted R. Phillips, Skylook, August 1975, p. 15; David F. Webb & |
| Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case A0785, |

| Fifth Kind, p. 118; Coral E. Lorenzen, Encounters with UFO Occupants, |

| Report, pp. 9, 327). |
| |
| 1974 - Two brothers were moving some of their possessions in a truck |
| near Ely, Nevada. At around 4:15 a.m. the engine of the truck began |
| missing and the lights flickered, so they shifted into neutral. They |
| then felt a blast of wind shake the truck and saw an orange colored |
| light moving low to the ground from right to left. They stopped the |
| truck and saw six different lights or objects surrounding them: three |
| blue stationary lights, a red pulsating light, a silver colored |
| saucer, and a reddish-orange saucer. The red light then came directly |
| at the truck, passed close by, and continued on behind them. After |
| the objects had finally disappeared, they found the rear axle on the |
| truck broken in half. (Source: Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving |
| Vehicle Interference, case 360, citing CUFOS). |
| |
| 1998 - At 1:45 a.m. the two witnesses were parked in an open field in |
| Drente, The Netherlands when there suddenly appeared a flashing blue |
| light over the field and they both saw an object resembling a |
| "stealth fighter" with more rounded wings, hovering above a nearby |
| road. The craft descended vertically and landed. Several figures came |
| out of the object. They had long arms and small heads. They looked |
| around briefly and then went back inside the object. The object then |
| rose straight up and in a few seconds it was gone. Others in the area |
| reported seeing a bright light over the area around the same time. |

| #2979, citing UFO Sightings in New Mexico & the World). |
| |
| 1999 - In El Paso, Texas at midnight a witness saw a bright green |
| light descending and it seemed to get brighter as it got closer. It |
| dimmed, revealing a silver disc-shaped object that was spinning. |
| There were several lighted windows around its rim, and through them |
| the witness could see several “shadows” inside. (Source: Albert S. |
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1999, case # 3667, citing UFOPI). |
