| Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
|
||
| |
|
||
| May 31 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1947 - A former military photographer claimed that a UFO, 30-40 feet |
|
||
| in diameter and about 15 feet in height, crashed near the area of |
|
||
| Socorro, New Mexico and was recovered on this day. One occupant of |
|
||
| the craft was killed in the crash, while three others allegedly |
|
||
| emerged alive. When they were found by the U.S. military, the |
|
||
| survivors reportedly made crying-like sounds and clutched box-like |
|
||
| devices to their chests. One of them appeared to be injured. The |
|
||
| occupants were of small height and had copper based blood. This |
|
||
| object was reportedly eventually sent to Wright-Patterson Air Force |
|
||
| Base near Dayton, Ohio, and ended up at the "Hangar 18" facility. |

|
||
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1947). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1948 - In 1948 at 1:20 in the afternoon, a cigar-shaped object moved through |
|
||
| the sky at terrific speed over Wilmington, North Carolina. Mrs. H. D. |
|
||
| Alspach reported that the object emitted smoke, appeared about three |
|
||
| feet long, veered, slowed down, and then speed away toward the east |
|
||
| at a high altitude. (Sources: Wilmington, North Carolina Morning |
|
||
| Star, June 1, 1948; Project Blue Book files counted in official |
|
||
| statistics, case # 129). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1951 - Niagara Falls, New York - A luminous disc with arc-shaped wings |
|
||
| rose into the sky at a very fast speed. It was seen by several |
|
||
| military witnesses for 35 seconds at 11:20 p.m. This case is a |
|
||
| Project Blue Book "unknown." (Source: Project Blue Book files counted |
|
||
| in official statistics, case #928). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - South of Chorwon, Korea - At 4:20 a.m. pilot Hufberry turned |
|
||
| his F-94 jet to descend and intercept a round, bluish white UFO. The |
|
||
| F-94's radar locked onto the object, whereupon the UFO made a left |
|
||
| turn climb, silhouetting the F-94 against the dawn sky. The UFO |
|
||
| accelerated away after the fighter jet made two unsuccessful attempts |
|
||
| to pass the UFO. (Source: Richard F. Haines, Advanced Aerial Devices |
|
||
| During the Korean War, p. 47). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1955 - At 11 o'clock in the morning on the farm of Messr. Coulange, |
|
||
| in Puy St. Gulmier, France a 1.1 meter (5 feet) in diameter luminous |
|
||
| white disc hovered vertically only a few meters away from the |
|
||
| 74-year-old farmer, and only three meters from the ground. Many |
|
||
| multi-colored filaments of light radiated from the UFO. The object |
|
||
| rose up, went over the old man's head, and flew out of sight behind |
|
||
| some nearby woods. (Source: Jimmy Guieu, Flying Saucers Come from |
|
||
| Another World, p. 253). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - At 7:17 a.m. a British Airways airliner flying over Kent, |
|
||
| England experienced radio and radar failure when a UFO was sighted. |

|
||

|
||
| citing Geoffrey Falla). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - A man named Priest sighted a reddish orange object with a |
|
||
| tapering tail fly over Port Elliot, South Australia at 6:13 a.m. It |
|
||
| moved from west to east at 25 degrees elevation in southern sky. |
|
||
| (Source: Michael Hervey, UFOs over the Southern Hemisphere, p. 166). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1961 - At noon on this day over Toompang, New South Wales, Australia |
|
||
| five men watched a large object hover in the sky while four |
|
||
| delta-shaped objects exited and maneuvered around it for over an |
|
||
| hour. They finally rejoined it and the large craft flew away. |
|
||
| (Sources: Jacques Vallee, Anatomy of a Phenomenon, p. 151; FSR, March |
|
||
| 1979, p. 10). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - On the 31st of May in 1967 a farm woman living outside of Beausejour, |
|
||
| Manitoba, Canada (about 45 miles from Winnipeg) was sitting on her |
|
||
| front porch at 11:30 p.m. waiting for her husband to return home. She |
|
||
| saw a brilliant red light with a smaller blue light beside it come |
|
||
| towards her from the south. The light lit up the ground and appeared |
|
||
| to land. She became frightened and ran inside her house. The next |
|
||
| morning she and her husband went out to investigate where the object |
|
||
| had landed. They found a 30 by 50 yard semi-circular area that was |
|
||
| still in flames. The strange fact about this case is that on June |
|
||
| 15th the area was still smoldering, despite considerable rain having |
|
||
| fallen in the area. Radioactive soil was found at the site. (Sources: |

|
||
| UFO Evidence, Volume II: A Thirty-Year Report, pp. 263, 340; Coral & |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1969 - On this night a large sphere flew erratically in the sky over |
|
||
| Sao Paulo, Brazil. It released a smaller sphere which flew away. |
|
||
| Several witnesses reported that their cars failed during the |
|
||
| sighting, including both the lights and motor. (Source: Mark |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1971 - In 1971 at 1:10 in the afternoon, two witnesses In Newmarket, New |
|
||
| Hampshire sighted a grayish white ovoid object, hovering in an |
|
||
| upright orientation a few feet above the ground. It had dark |
|
||
| portholes around its perimeter, and was in plain view in front of |
|
||
| some trees for a few minutes before shooting straight up and out of |
|
||
| sight. (Source: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs Interplanetary Visitors. |

| |
|
||
| 1972 - Mr. Reeve, a man in his fifties, was driving in the fog in |
|
||
| Mannum, South Australia at 6:35 a.m. when he came across a dark |
|
||
| oval-shaped object with a red light on one side, a white light on |
|
||
| theother, hanging just above the ground. He stopped his car, and the |
|
||
| object rose into the fog with a "swish" sound. (Source: Keith |
|
||
| Basterfield, UFO Research South Australia, case SA72002). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1974 - In 1974 the strange events began early in the morning for a young |
|
||
| married couple traveling from Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) to South Africa |
|
||
| via Fort Victoria and Beit Bridge. Peter and Frances saw what they |
|
||
| thought was a policeman holding a walkie-talkie radio about 10 |
|
||
| kilometers south of Umvuma. This is what he seemed to be to Peter, |
|
||
| who was driving his Peugeot 404 well in excess of the posted speed |
|
||
| limit. As the road was noted for speed traps, he slowed down. The |
|
||
| pair of them began to think in more detail about the policeman. The |
|
||
| metallic-looking suit seemed queer for a policeman, as they normally |
|
||
| wore khaki. The UFO appeared at 2:30 a.m. on the passenger side of |
|
||
| the car (left hand side). It appeared fairly close and seemed to keep |
|
||
| pace with the car. For a brief while they wondered if it might be a |
|
||
| helicopter. It had a bluish tinge, and was flashing bright and steady |
|
||
| for 5 seconds, then off for 2 seconds. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| The car headlights began to fade next, and there was an immense light |
|
||
| around the car. As they drove along it suddenly became very cold in |
|
||
| the car. They estimated the drop in temperature to have been between |
|
||
| 20 and 30 degrees Fahrenheit, down to less than 50º F. Peter took his |
|
||
| foot off the accelerator but the car continued to move forward at an |
|
||
| accelerated speed! He tried to apply the brakes but it had no effect, |
|
||
| and his steering had no effect on the direction of the car as well. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| When they were some 10 km from Fort Victoria the UFO shot off like a |
|
||
| shooting star, but it reappeared again about 10 kilometers outside of |
|
||
| the city, but this time they also saw a second UFO move into position |
|
||
| above the car. Frances fell asleep around 6:15 a.m. just before she |
|
||
| feel asleep they lost all sound from the radio. Peter lost all track |
|
||
| of time and he remembered nothing from about three minutes after |
|
||
| Frances fell asleep. He felt at the time he must have been mesmerized |
|
||
| by the road. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| At the Customs post at the South African border showed 8:30 a.m. |
|
||
| although their watches indicated it was only 7:30 a.m. Peter was also |
|
||
| surprised when reading the car's trip odometer. He had reset it to |
|
||
| zero at Fort Victoria, but found that it had recorded only 17 km, yet |
|
||
| the distance by road was 288 km. He had also filled the gas tank in |
|
||
| Fort Victoria and expected to need a full tank when he reached the |
|
||
| border, but when he tried to fill the tank it would take only 22 |
|
||
| cents worth, which at the time was less than a half gallon. Under |
|
||
| hypnosis Frances had no other experiences revealed than those she |
|
||
| remembered consciously. Peter, however recalled seeing the inside of |
|
||
| the "spacecraft" which had three levels, and interacting with |
|
||
| physical beings that he believed could take on any appearance that he |
|
||
| wanted them to look like. (Sources: Carl van Vlierden, "Escorted by |
|

|
||
| Guests, p. 276). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1975 - At around 9 p.m. an octagonal flying object with an |
|
||
| illuminated cross-member, moved very slowly through the sky city sky |
|
||
| above London, England. It then vanished while still in view. It was |
|
||
| reported by a married couple named Fry. (Source: Jenny Randles, FSR, |
|
||
| November 1976, p. 30). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1976 - A 17-year-old man named T. White saw a 5 foot, 6 inch tall |
|
||
| humanoid in his backyard in Daw Park, South Australia at around 2:00 |
|
||
| a.m. The being wore a silver coverall suit with white boots, a black |
|
||
| visor helmet, and had a box strapped to its chest. It flew into a |
|
||
| white ellipsoid UFO that made no sound as it left. The household |
|
||
| wiring was effected. Unintelligible language was heard as well. |

|
||
| 1984 - A V-shaped formation of ten to fifteen red lights flew over |
|
||
| the Hudson Valley on this night and was seen from several locations. |
|
||
| At 8:15 p.m. a V-Shaped formation of 15 lights, estimated to be the |
|
||
| size of a Boeing 747 airliner if all connected to one object, passed |
|
||
| directly over the home of an IBM engineer in Hawthorne, Westchester |
|
||
| County, New York. It made no sound as it passed overhead except a |
|
||
| faint humming. All lights simultaneously turned blue, and then made a |
|
||
| tight 180-degree turn and flew off to the north. At 8:30 p.m. the |
|
||
| same or a similar object was seen from Route 117 in Pleasantville, |
|
||
| New York. It was reported to be larger than a football field, and it |
|
||
| followed a car being driven on the Taconic Parkway. At 8:45 p.m. the |
|
||
| lights were seen by Mr. D. Boyd in Yorktown, New York. An engineer |
|
||
| and private pilot, he watched them turn and fly away toward the west. |
|
||
| V-shaped or triangular UFOs were also sighted later that night in |
|
||
| Fishkill and south Putnam County. (Source: Philip Imbrogno, |
|
||
| International UFO Reporter, September 1984, p. 5-7). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1994 - At 2:30 a.m. Mr. Oringdulph of Alamosa, Colorado - the witness |
|
||
| of a nocturnal light in the sky earlier that evening - was awakened |
|
||
| by a large helicopter hovering directly over his house. As he ran |
|
||
| outside it flew away, but a second helicopter hovered low over the |
|
||
| end of his street for several minutes. (Source: Christopher O'Brien, |
|
||
| The Mysterious Valley, p. 243). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2003 - An ovoid craft was seen in the sky near a shopping center in |
|
||
| Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia at 8:04 p.m. It shrank and |
|
||
| then glowed brightly, and changed color from orange to red It became |
|
||
| smaller, then brighter again, then disappeared. (Source: Peter |
