|
||
| |
|
||
| 1954 - On this afternoon two sisters in Norway met the pilot of a |
|
||
| UFO. While picking blueberries in fields around Ceydalen, near |
|
||
| Mosjoen, Norway 24-year-old Edith Jacobsen and her sister, Asta |
|
||
| Solvang, were approached by a man with a tanned complexion and long |
|
||
| hair who smiled and made friendly hand gestures. Curious, they |
|
||
| decided not to run away. The stranger wore a greenish one-piece |
|
||
| coverall, which covered him all the way up to his neck, and they |
|
||
| could not see any buttons or seams. He also wore a very wide belt |
|
||
| around his waist. But what really grabbed their attention was the |
|
||
| man’s long, light brown hair. His eyes were light blue and somewhat |
|
||
| slanted, and his skin was a bronze color. After waving back to the |
|
||
| visitor, they asked who he was. The man extended his hand towards the |
|
||
| women but instead of shaking hands he slightly brushed their palms, |
|
||
| and then spoke in a "sing song type manner” and in a language they |
|
||
| could not comprehend, even though both women were fluent in English, |
|
||
| German, and Russian and were knowledgeable in Spanish and French. |
|
||
| “His hands were beautiful,” said one of the women, “with long well |
|
||
| manicured fingers like that of an artist”. The stranger took |
|
||
| something out of his coverall that resembled a pencil and what |
|
||
| appeared to be a piece of paper, when he then proceeded to draw a |
|
||
| central point surrounded by several circles, which seemed to |
|
||
| represent the orbits of the planets within our solar system. After |
|
||
| pointing out the Earth and the moon, the stranger pointed at a |
|
||
| ‘planet’ which the women were unable to distinguish due to their |
|
||
| state of excitement. Moments later he put both items back into his |
|
||
| tunic through a seam that neither woman was able to see. At this |
|
||
| point both women were starting to feel a little concerned, but the |
|
||
| smiling man motioned for them to follow him. Both women obeyed and |
|
||
| soon arrived in a small clearing in which rested a metallic |
|
||
| lenticular-shaped object with a small dome on top. The object |
|
||
| measured some 4 to 5 meters in diameter and was about 1.30 meters in |
|
||
| height, and was grayish-blue in color. As they started to approach |
|
||
| the craft the man motioned for them to step back. He then opened a |
|
||
| hatch at the base of the object and climbed in, and then closed the |
|
||
| hatch. The women then heard a slight whistling sound, and moments |
|
||
| later the object began to rise up into air with a rotating motion. |
|
||
| Once the craft had climbed to about 45 meters it stopped momentarily, |
|
||
| and then it increased its rotation, quickly rising up into the sky in |
|
||
| a diagonal trajectory and disappearing from sight. The women notified |
|
||
| the police after the encounter and according to police officials both |
|
||
| women were of sound mind and well respected in the community. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1955 - At 10:45 p.m. two men on a lake in Kenora, Ontario, Canada saw |
|
||
| a saucer-shaped UFO come in front of them, hovering just 40 feet over |
|
||
| the water. It was silver white in color, four or five feet across, |
|
||
| and at a distance of less than 75 meters. It slid sideways, hovered |
|
||
| again, tilted on its side, straightened out, then shot away. It |
|
||
| was gone in three seconds, covering 40 degrees of arc in the sky. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - In Venezuela at 10:30 a.m. ten small discs orbited one huge |
|
||
| disc southwest of Carora, Lara province, and one landed. The rest |
|
||
| engaged in zig-zag maneuvers. (Source: Loren E. Gross, The Fifth |
|
||
| Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1957: August-September, |
|
||
| p. 36). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - In the evening in Quilino, Cordoba, Argentina an Air Force man |
|
||
| inside a tent heard a loud, shrill sound and then saw a disc that |
|
||
| descended while grass and plants fluttered wildly underneath it. He |
|
||
| found himself unable to draw his gun, which "seemed to be glued in |
|
||
| its holster." A voice came from inside the craft, telling him in |
|
||
| Spanish that UFOs had a base in the Salta area and would soon show |
|
||
| themselves to warn all people about the dangers of a nuclear |
|
||
| catastrophe. (Sources: Gordon Creighton, FSR Special Edition #1: The |
|

|
||
| 398). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - The witness and three young girls were sleeping in a station |
|
||
| wagon at Lake Bonita, New Mexico. At around three a.m. they were |
|
||
| awake to see a bright fireball descend and land on the side of the |
|
||
| nearby mountain. Several figures carrying what looked like bright |
|
||
| flashlights emerged from the object and approached their location, |
|
||
| shining beams of light inside their car and illuminating the area |
|
||
| like daylight. The figures then left the area and the witnesses ran |
|
||
| from their vehicle and crawled to the relative safety of a nearby |
|
||
| cabin. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1959, |
|
||
| case # 3604, citing Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, |
|
||
| Seattle). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1962 - Raimundo Mafra da Silva testified before the police that while |
|
||
| working in a field in Duas Pontes, Minas Gerais State, Brazil he saw |
|
||
| two spherical objects hovering just two meters above the ground, only |
|
||
| a few meters from his house. One was black with an antenna-like |
|
||
| protrusion and a small tail, and the other was black and white. Both |
|
||
| emitted a humming sound and a flickering flame through an opening. |
|
||
| The boy's father warned him to stay away as his father Rivalino |
|
||
| walked toward the objects, praying. When he was two meters away, the |
|
||
| two spheres merged into one, raising dust from the ground and |
|
||
| spreading a yellow mist that enveloped the man. The boy ran after his |
|
||
| father, noting that the cloud had "an acrid smell." As it dissolved, |
|
||
| everything had vanished including his father. The police |
|
||
| investigation, headed by Lieutenant Lisboa, failed to reveal any |
|
||
| clue. Many terrified neighbors left the area at the time because of |
|
||
| this incident. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, September 1962, p. 1; Coral E |

||
| |
|
||
| 1963 - In a wooded area near Rome, Italy a man in a car observed at |
|
||
| 9:32 p.m. an object resembling a plate turned upside down, with a |
|
||
| central turret, flying low over his vehicle. (Source: Jacques Vallee, |

||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - At 3:00 a.m. EDT Mrs. T. E. Schumaker of Mount Airy, North |
|
||
| Carolina was awakened by a loud humming sound and found she could not |
|
||
| speak or move for awhile. When she finally was able to reach her |
|
||
| window and look out, she saw a vertical, cigar- shaped, luminous |
|
||
| object. It moved right and left, then back and forth, etc. Ultimately |
|
||
| it disappeared behind some trees. The next morning a circle of |
|
||
| crushed grass, four meters in diameter, was found in her yard. |
|

||
| 1965 - At 5:20 a.m. EDT a former Navy aircraft spotter sighted a |
|
||
| grayish-silver disc hovering over the city of Haverhill, |
|
||

|
||
| hill. It made no sound. (Source: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs: |

||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - At 11:50 a.m. several tourists in Cuzco, Peru, including |
|
||
| Alberto Ugarte and Elwin Voter, observed a strange craft land near |
|
||
| the Inca ruins that they were visiting. The object was a small |
|
||
| silvery disc, only five feet in diameter, and it landed on a terrace |
|
||
| of the Sacsahuaman Inca site. Two luminous dwarfish beings, “of |
|
||
| strange shape and dazzling brightness,” briefly emerged from it. They |
|
||
| were also described as having "vertical mouths." They quickly got |
|
||
| back inside into their craft, which then flew off. (Sources: David F. |

|
||
| 1965 - At 11:00 p.m. local time Eduardo Lujan Yacobi and his wife, |
|
||
| Teresa Ernestina Acuna, were returning to their home in Mar del |
|
||
| Plata, Buenos Aires province, Argentina when they heard a loud |
|
||
| humming sound and saw a reddish glowing, oval-shaped object pass |
|
||
| overhead and land 200 meters away. The object, which was flashing and |
|
||
| rotating, brushed the tops of nearby trees in its passage overhead |
|
||
| and, after landing, the Yacobis could see luminous red or violet |
|
||
| figures moving about and examining the craft, as if in some type of |
|
||
| repair activity. After a short while these figures re-entered the |
|
||
| machine, which took off and disappeared within a few seconds. Others |
|
||
| in the neighborhood had seen the object’s passage overhead, and still |
|
||
| others had heard the humming noise. Total duration of incident was 30 |
|
||
| minutes. (Sources: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - Early in the morning Otto Becker, his son, and daughter-in-law |
|
||
| woke up to find their entire house in Heraldsburg, California bathed |
|
||
| in bright light. They next observed a "six-story" tall object at |
|
||
| treetop level sixty meters away. It gave off rainbow colors that |
|
||
| appeared to pour off its edges "like water" in a fantastic display. A |
|
||
| distinct engine noise was heard before it took off vertically. |
|
||
| Domestic animals had been greatly disturbed, and the witness had |
|
||
| inflamed eyes for several days. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to |
|
||
| Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # 789, citing Bob Gribble, |
|
||
| January 1967). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - Later that day outside of Bozeman, Montana Dan Duggleby was up |
|
||
| in the hills with a .22 caliber rifle when he heard a "whooshing" |
|
||
| noise and looked up to see a large rocket-shaped object about 60 feet |
|
||
| in diameter and 300 feet tall, which landed close by. An opening |
|
||
| appeared in the side of the cylinder and a ramp slid out, and five |
|
||
| robotic metal "boxes" with small wheels on the bottoms and four |
|
||
| "arms" on the sides came down the ramp. One took ground samples, |
|
||
| while three of the others took air, grass, and flower samples and the |
|
||
| last one "just stood there." When finished they rolled back up the |
|
||
| ramp, the ramp slid in, and the ship took off straight up and |
|
||
| vanished in the fog. The witness had seen disc-like UFOs on many |
|
||
| previous occasions. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |
|
||
| Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case # 1966-33, citing |
|
||
| Duggleby's letter to the FBI). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - In Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil a woman called the police |
|
||
| to report a luminous object rising and descending on top of a high |
|
||
| hill. When policemen climbed to the site they found the bodies of two |
|
||
| men, electronic technicians Pereira da Cruz and Viana. The bodies |
|
||
| were wearing lead masks on the upper part of the face. An autopsy |
|
||
| failed to disclose the cause of death, but the investigation |
|
||
| disclosed several earlier incidents and a mysterious organization to |
|
||
| which these men belonged. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to |
|
||
| Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # 790, citing a personal |
|
||
| investigation). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1966 - In Randlett, Utah at sunset a 12-year-old girl named Cuch |
|
||
| spotted a glowing yellow-orange domed disc hovering in the sky. It |
|
||
| glowed orange, approached, and then a red beam came out of the |
|
||
| bottom. When children ran toward it, it flew away. (Sources: Frank |

| |
|
||
| 1968 - In Schitul Bunea, Romania two men saw a 30 meter cone-shaped |
|
||
| object that hovered for 90 minutes, beginning at around 11:00 p.m. It |
|
||
| emitted a beam of light upwards. (Source: Ion Hobanna & Julien |
|
||
| Weberbergh, UFOs from Behind the Iron Curtain, p. 243). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1970 - At 6:30 a.m. several young boys in Bukit Mertajam, Penang |
|
||
| province, Malaysia encountered a round blue object on the ground, and |
|
||
| several three inch tall ugly humanoids stood around the object. One |
|
||
| of the humanoids took out an object resembling a gun and shot one of |
|
||
| the boys on his hand when the boy attempted to grab him. The boys ran |
|
||
| to get their teachers but upon returning to the site the object and |
|
||
| the creatures were gone. Later that same day the same young witness |
|
||
| from the previous day encountered a small UFO on the ground near the |
|
||
| school compound. Five three-inch tall humanoids emerged from the |
|
||
| object. One of them, who appeared to be the leader, wore a yellow |
|
||
| uniform and had two horn-like protrusions on his head. The other four |
|
||
| wore blue uniforms. The leader pointed a weapon at the witness and |
|
||
| shot at him. The witness blacked out and was found later lying in the |
|
||
| bushes. He regained consciousness later, and a small red dot appeared |
|
||
| on his leg where he had been shot by the creature. Two other boys in |
|
||
| the same village went out looking for the reported small UFO and |
|
||
| spotted two tiny men among some bushes. One was on a rock and the |
|
||
| other on a tree branch. Both figures were dressed in yellow suits, |
|
||
| and one had only one arm and appeared to be holding a small gun. The |
|
||
| boys attempted to capture the entities but they got away. That |
|
||
| evening the young son of a local high-ranking police official was |
|
||
| returning from school when he saw two tiny figures hiding in the |
|
||
| bushes near the school compound. As he tried to capture them he was |
|
||
| shot in the hand and received a small cut. (Source: Albert S. |

|
||
| frozen with fear over the close approach of two orange lights, which |
|
||
| hovered only 100 yards away from them. (Source: Mrs. K. Smith, The |

| 1973 - At 10:15 p.m. an 18 meter in diameter disc-shaped object flew |
|
||
| over Vertheuil, Gironde department, France and tilted at a 45 degree |
|
||
| angle. It had illuminated, square windows. It then leveled off and |
|
||
| flew away. (Sources: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 10059; |

||
| |
|
||
| 1974 - Driving on Route 43 near Derry, New Hampshire at 9:30 p.m. Joe |
|
||
| Recupero saw an object through his windshield that was moving from |
|
||
| east to west, approximately 300 yards distant, and as "big as a |
|
||
| house." It was white in color, fuzzy and bright as the sun, and was |
|
||
| followed by several smaller objects. It moved into some trees along |
|
||
| the highway between Exits 4 and 5, so he pulled off the road, got |
|
||
| out, and began looking for it. After searching for several |
|
||
| minutes, he suddenly spotted two small "mummy like" figures in the |
|
||
| woods, some 40 yards distant. Alarmed, he got back into his car and |
|
||
| drove off. The entire incident lasted one hour, although the mummy |
|
||
| figures were only seen briefly. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted |

| County, New York, then followed after two witnesses in their car |
|
||
| making sharp maneuvers. Next it moved over top of a neighbor's house, |
|
||
| and hovered over their yard for three minutes. A second UFO was seen |
|
||
| there an hour and a half later that was rectangular shaped. In |

| delta-shaped object with four headlights in front as it came closer. |
|
||

| 1992 - A sequence of multi-witness sightings occurred in Pittsford, |
|
||
| Monroe County, New York that lasted for an hour and a half, beginning |
|
||
| at 10:00 p.m. The first sighting was of a band of arcade-like rolling |
|
||
| front lights and three distinctly large lights, with small red lights |
|
||
| at the center rear. The object was estimated to be at 1,200 feet |
|
||
| altitude, larger than a Boeing-747, and moving slowly at about 60 |
|
||
| mph. Several witnesses called MUFON field investigator George Hoenig, |
|
||
| who took photographs of a "stack of dishes" rotating and tumbling, |
|
||
| with streaks of light darting about. Two women had a close encounter |
|
||
| with two boomerang-shaped objects with a fat center. The |
|
||
| objects stayed the same distance apart and had ten lights each. At |
|
||
| first they moved at a steady, slow pace, but then they accelerated as |
|
||
| they went over. They made no sound. (Sources: Donald M. Ware, MUFON |

||
| 1993 - A woman in Baca Chalets, Saguache County in the San Luis |
|
||
| Valley, Colorado had been watching late night television around one |
|
||
| o'clock in the morning and had just turned off the light when she |
|
||
| heard noises coming from the kitchen. She called out but got no |
|
||
| response. Puzzled, she went to bed and turned off the light. Just as |
|
||
| her eyes were getting accustomed to the dark, ten or twelve three and |
|
||
| a half to four foot tall creatures glided into the room in a tight |
|
||
| group, and came to stand less than three feet from where she lay. She |
|
||
| sat up in amazement, staring at them. When they first came in she |
|
||
| thought she could see right through them, but as they got into the |
|
||
| room they became solid. The beings clustered around the foot of her |
|
||
| bed, looking at her. She felt the entities, were "cold, and |
|
||
| completely indifferent, maybe a little curious." They were small and |
|
||
| slight and had huge almond-shaped eyes. Sleeping next to her was her |
|
||
| five-year old son. She suddenly thought of the boy and became afraid, |
|
||
| thinking, "they are here because of him!" She then forcefully told |
|
||
| them to leave. The beings then silently glided out the wall, they way |
|
||
| they came in. That same night a neighbor reported feeling a presence |
|
||
| and seeing peculiar shadows in his bedroom, about two hours earlier. |

|
||
| object hovering above a group of nearby power lines in her backyard |
|
||
| in West Manchester, Ohio. The round bottom of the craft appeared to |
|
||
| be gold in color, and it had orange, green, and reddish-orange |
|
||
| lights. A series of rectangular windows were around the middle |
|
||
| portion of the craft. One window in the center appeared to be moved |
|
||
| down by somebody inside the craft, while at the same time the girl |
|
||
| had a strong feeling that she was being watched. After viewing the |
|
||
| object for about five minutes, it zig-zagged and shot up into the |
|
||
| sky. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1996, case |

||
| luminous points in the sky. It was quiet and its passage lasted a few |
|
||
| minutes. The son of the witness tried in vain to film it. (Source: |

|
||
| south in unison, positioned to make an uneven triangle. The space in |
|
||
| between the lights was camouflaged against the night sky. (Source: |

|
||
| flew right over the heads of a computer network engineer of 20 years |
|
||
| and his chemist wife at a low altitude. Its length was longer than |
|
||
| any commercial airliner. The witness viewed the object through |
|
||
| binoculars. It had three lights with one located at each apex. The |
|
||
| UFO tilted to the west and levelled off. The object stayed in sight |
|
||
| for 3 minutes, and then completely vanished right in front of them in |
|
||
| the partly cloudy sky.(Source: George A. Filer & David E. Twichell, |

||
| 2004 - In Stonewall, Manitoba at 10:30 p.m. three orange, |
|
||
| boomerang-shaped objects moved in formation, traveling very fast, and |
|
||
| making no noise. (Sources: Geoff Dittman, 2004 Canadian UFO Survey |

|
||
| 2006 - There were unexplained UFO reports from Nova Scotia, Ontario |
|
||
| and Alberta, Canada on this day. At 1:00 a.m. in Edmonton, Alberta |
|
||
| rotating lights were seen on a white polygon UFO, which moved rapidly |
|
||
| through the sky. In Windsor, Ontario at 2:00 a.m. there was a close |
|
||
| encounter with a floating, silver, triangle-shaped object, moving |
|
||
| side to side. It hovered for awhile, then moved away. The sighting |
|
||
| lasted five minutes. At 8:00 p.m. in Sault Ste. Marie, |
|
||
| Ontario witnesses sighted a silvery round UFO reflecting sunlight. It |
|
||
| hovered, then took off at a high rate of speed. Next, it stopped |
|
||
| abruptly, moved back towards the witnesses, and finally moved away. |
|
||
| At 11:30 p.m. in New Victoria, Nova Scotia multiple independent |
|
||
| people observed large lights in the sky. They hovered and moved side |
|
||
| to side. At one point, they seemed to follow some of the witnesses. |
