|
||
| August 3 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1909 - A dark silent cigar-shaped object flew slowly at a low |
|
||
| altitude over Waihi, New Zealand at 8:30 p.m. It had windows on each |
|
||
| side and an intense blue-green light in front. Later that same |
|
||
| evening a man was thrown from his horse in Waipawa, New Zealand when |
|
||
| a gray cigar or torpedo-shaped object hovered overhead and frightened |
|
||
| the animal. Three human looking figures stood on deck, and one waved |
|
||
| and shouted. The craft had lights at both ends. It rose to a higher |
|
||
| altitude, circled, and then went behind hill. (Sources: Luminieres |

| [1900-1946], p. 8). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1946 - A cigar-shaped object flew over central Norrland, Sweden this |
|
||
| evening. (Source: Bjorn Overbye, FSR, May-June 1969, p. 18). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1948 - At 8 a.m. a long metallic cylinder with no wings flew at a |
|
||
| very high altitude and was seen in the skies 25 kilometers northwest |
|
||
| of Moscow in Russia. It moved silently and very fast towards the |
|
||
| northeast. (Sources: Project Blue Book, August 1948; Larry Hatch, U |
|
||
| computer database, case 1338, citing Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - At 3:13 p.m. eight military witnesses and radar confirmed the |
|
||
| presence of two silver colored discs in the sky over Hamilton AFB in |
|
||
| Marin County, California. The discs appeared to be dogfighting. They |
|
||
| were joined by six other discs and formed a diamond formation. They |
|
||
| sped away as USAF F-86 fighter jets were scrambled. The sighting |
|
||
| lasted 75 minutes. (Sources: Project Blue Book; Donald E. Keyhoe, |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1953 - At 12:04 p.m. over the Amarillo Airport, Texas a transparent |
|
||
| disc stopped and hovered in the sky. A second, identical object was |
|
||
| seen behind it. They were not balloons, according to the official Air |
|
||
| Force investigation. A Project Blue Book "unidentified" case. |

|
||

|
||
| p. 2). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - On or about this date Dr. Antonin Kukla and Mrs. Audrey |
|
||
| Lawrence saw an oval object dive toward them at 8:00 p.m. while |
|
||
| driving in Carnarvon, Western Australia. They switched off the car's |
|
||
| headlights and got out of the vehicle to observe the object, which |
|
||
| hovered at ground level. Its color changed from orange to fluorescent |
|
||
| green before it took off at high speed. (Sources: NICAP UFO |
|
||
| Investigator, September 1965, p. 4; Jacques Vallee, Passport to |
|
||
| Magonia: A Century of Landings, case 670). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - There were at least 15 reports recorded for this day from |
|
||
| Australia, China, Sweden, Switzerland, Hawaii, and the midwestern and |
|
||
| western United States. Among the more interesting reports, a young |
|
||
| man saw an object rise from the lake at Lake Hefner, Oklahoma. Also |
|
||
| on this day a famous set of UFO photographs was taken by Ray Heflin |
|
||
| in Santa Ana, California. At 12:38 p.m. he took four photographs of a |
|
||
| metallic hat-shaped UFO, estimated to be about 30 feet in diameter, |
|
||
| with a Polaroid camera from his Orange County pickup truck. The U.S. |
|
||
| Air Force claimed the object was a hubcap thrown in the air, but most |
|
||
| UFO researchers regard the photos as genuine. (Sources: (1) Jacques |
|
||
| Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case 671; (2) |

|
||
| Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, p. 24). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - Two boys, Doug Knopka, age 9, and Tim Dietz, age 8, were |
|
||
| vacationing at Doehler’s Beach in northeastern Pennsylvania with |
|
||
| their families, and were walking along a wooded road at 10:30 a.m. |
|
||
| when they saw a “dirty white” disc-shaped object. It had a |
|
||
| transparent dome, was 15 feet in diameter, and was on or near the |
|
||
| ground just 50 feet away from them. Next to the craft stood a small |
|
||
| four and a half foot tall figure with yellow eyes, and inside the |
|
||
| dome was another figure moving about. Frightened, the boys ran from |
|
||
| the spot. As they ran they heard a “swishing” sound, and saw the |
|
||
| round object rise over the treetops and disappear from sight as it |
|
||
| flew out over the lake. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
|
||
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case # 1965-28, citing Louis |
|
||
| Spizarny for NICAP). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 11:35 a.m. in the town of Perigueux, Dordogne, France a |
|
||
| silent disc-shaped object made five falling leaf maneuvers in the |
|
||
| sky. (Source: GEPA Phenomenes Spatiaux, March 1974, p. 22). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 8:00 p.m. J. Vieira, a lawyer, and his driver Amauri, were |
|
||
| at kilometer 15 on the Miguel Peraira Highway when they saw two |
|
||
| yellowish lights, then many others, about 500 meters away to the |
|
||
| left. The lights would blink and fade. Similar lights were seen again |
|
||
| at Conrado, Brazil. When the driver blinked the car's headlights the |
|
||
| objects seemed to respond. A domed disc-shaped object that |
|
||
| illuminated the whole area was next seen resting in some woods. |
|
||
| Physiological after-effects included headaches, dizziness, and |
|
||
| jaundiced facial skin. (Sources: Irene Granchi, APRO Bulletin, |
|
||
| September-October 1967, p. 11; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A |
|

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 11:30 p.m. a married couple named DeSoto in Caracas, |
|
||
| Venezuela saw a luminous, disc-shaped whitish object, 10 meters in |
|
||
| diameter. The entire yard was illuminated and a humming sound was |
|
||
| heard. A door opened in the base of the craft and something like a |
|
||
| light bulb lowered itself to the ground. This, too, had an opening |
|
||
| from which stepped a small man about three feet tall, dressed in |
|
||
| silvery luminous clothes. His head was surrounded by vapor. He was |
|
||
| only about five meters away from the witnesses, and they watched him |
|
||
| pick up stones, examine them, look up, and appear to communicate with |
|
||
| the disc-shaped craft. He then dropped the stones and stepped into |
|
||
| the "bulb" that reentered the craft, which took off. (Sources: Jim & |
|
||
| Coral Lorenzen, UFOs Over the Americas, p. 43; Jacques Vallee, |
|
||
| Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case 862). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1972 - While driving in Pinnaroo, South Australia Mrs. Venning and |
|
||
| two traveling companions saw a greyish-white oval object to her left |
|
||
| in a paddock. It had lights on both sides, was 30 meters off the |
|
||
| ground, and was silent. She drove past without stopping but said |
|
||
| that her hair stood on end during the sighting. (Source: Keith |
|
||
| Basterfield, UFO Research South Australia case files). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1973 - A brightly lit football-shaped object ascended into the sky in |
|
||
| staircase maneuvers over Villeneuve-sur-Lot, Lot-Garonne department, |
|
||
| France. It made halts at the corners in its step-function climb. |
|
||
| (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue 133). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1975 - Numerous townspeople watched as a multi-colored cigar-shaped |
|
||
| object, predominantly orange in color, settled onto a nearby hill in |
|
||
| Antofagasta, Chile. It gave off a chemical smell, which burned their |
|
||
| noses, and the witnesses "eyes filled with tears." The whole area was |
|
||
| lit by a yellow-orange glow while the object was in the area. After |
|
||
| several minutes the UFO shot away to the west toward the Pacific |
|
||
| Ocean. (Sources: Charles Bowen, Saga UFO Report, December 1976, |
|
||
| p. 10; FSR, July-August 1976, p. 33 citing La Razon, August 4, 1975). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1977 - In Thaxted, Essex, England a 24-year old man named Stevens was |
|
||
| driving at around 3:30 a.m. when his car lost power from 50 mph to 35 |
|
||
| mph despite applying full throttle. Two orange-red oval lights were |
|
||
| seen hovering nearby at the time, at a distance of 300-400 yards. |
|
||
| (Sources: Andrew Collins, FSR, January 1978, p. 25; Richard H. Hall, |
|
||
| The UFO Evidence, Volume II: A Thirty-Year Report, pp. 21, 275). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1977 - On this day in Campos, Brazil a gray disc-shaped object was |
|
||
| seen on the ground and three tall, thin, baldheaded figures were seen |
|
||
| moving around the object performing various tasks. They wore gray |
|
||
| coveralls with green belts. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |
|
||
| Contact Database 1977, citing Antonio Faleiro). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1977 - Caferina Vargas Martin, age 20, of Escalada, Huelva, Spain |
|
||
| left her home at 7:30 p.m. to walk to her grandmother's house in La |
|
||
| Corte, about three kilometers distant. The pathway between the two |
|
||
| villages winds along a creek at the foot of a mountain, with lush |
|
||
| vegetation along the way. While walking along the footpath, at around |
|
||
| 7:55 p.m., she was momentarily blinded by a bright reflection of |
|
||
| light. About 20 meters further on, another flash of light again shone |
|
||
| in her face. She believed it was a bicycle headlight, but she quickly |
|
||
| felt her strength ebb away as the light source was replaced by two |
|
||
| strange humanoid figures: a woman two meters tall and a slightly |
|
||
| shorter man. The woman had long platinum hair that hung to the middle |
|
||
| of her back, but the man's hair was shorter and slightly disheveled. |
|
||
| Their facial features were "repulsive" to the witness because the |
|
||
| woman had very large eyes, and only two holes where her nose should |
|
||
| be, with a slit-like mouth that moved without opening. Both figures |
|
||
| were dressed in tunics; the woman's was a dark green color, but shiny |
|
||
| as if made up of many tiny points of light, with wide long sleeves |
|
||
| that went to her hands. The tunic extended to the ground so her feet |
|
||
| were unseen. The man's tunic was a light chestnut color, and also |
|
||
| with brightly reflecting points of light. It came to his knees, below |
|
||
| which was a narrow, darker tunic that extended to the ground. Their |
|
||
| skin was citron yellow in color. While the woman gesticulated with |
|
||
| her arms, both beings remained indifferent to the witness's presence. |
|
||
| Feeling faint, Caferina sat down on a rock and then passed out. When |
|
||
| she came to there was no one there and it was then dark. Frightened |
|
||
| and upset, she ran back home. It was 8:50 p.m. when she got home, |
|
||
| nearly an hour after her encounter began. She suffered from |
|
||
| psychological shock and had nightmares for the next several nights, |
|
||
| and was treated by doctors. Some personal belongings of hers also |
|
||
| turned up missing. (Sources: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |
|
||
| Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1977-60 (A1751), citing Ignacio |
|
||
| Darnaude, Joaquin Mateos, Manuel Filpo Jose Ignacio Alonso & Antonio |
|
||
| Moya; Lumieres dans la Nuit, May 1978). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1997 - On this night Edsom da Silva heard some shots coming from a |
|
||
| nearby wooded area in Bocaiuva do Sul, Brazil and ran over to |
|
||
| investigate. He saw something hiding behind a tree. He was carrying a |
|
||
| bright lantern so he pointed the light at the nearby "form" on the |
|
||
| ground. He saw it was a strange creature with two huge reddish eyes, |
|
||
| which had a bizarre crest on its back. Frightened, he ran away from |
|
||
| the area and did not see the creature again. (Source: Albert S. |
|
||
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1997, citing Carlos Albert |
|
||
| Machado). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2000 - At 10:00 p.m. in Uniontown, Pennsylvania a witness saw a |
|
||
| five-foot-tall being with long slender extremities for about one |
|
||
| minute. It carried a brown staff that was about five feet long, and |
|
||
| the creature glided six inches above the ground. Another unusual |
|
||
| feature of the encounter was that all normal background sounds were |
|
||
| absent. (Sources: Stan Gordon, PASU website, citing Jim Brown; Albert |
|
||
| S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 2000, case # 3469, citing |
|
||
| PASU). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2008 - On this morning two witnesses were backpacking around near |
|
||
| Glenorchy on South Island, New Zealand when they encountered a |
|
||
| landed UFO. The weather had cleared that day and they had decided to |
|
||
| go for a tramp on the Mount Aspiring track, but before they reached |
|
||
| it they spotted what looked like a landed disc-shaped UFO in a |
|
||
| paddock. The craft was round and about five meters tall, with legs |
|
||
| for landing gear and pulsing yellow white lights around its |
|
||
| perimeter. The witnesses attempted to approach to take photos but |
|
||
| several “men” in white suits confronted them, taking their cameras. |
