|  Junee 8 |
| |
| 1920 - At 6 p.m. a cylindrical object flying at only 75 feet |
| altitude, passing over Rushville, Missouri, was seen by two |
| hundred people. It made a 90-degree turn to the east, and disappeared |
| into a cloud. (Source: Skylook, October 1973, p. 16; Richard H. Hall, |
| From Airships to Arnold: A Preliminary Catalogue of UFO Reports in |
| the Early 20th Century (1900-1946), p. 12; Jay David, The Flying |
| Saucer Reader, p. 12). |
| |
| 1952 - In Albuquerque, New Mexico at 10:50 a.m. Mr. and Mrs. J. D. |
| Markland sighted four shiny objects flying straight and level in a |
| diamond formation. They made no sound, and were silver white in |
| color. (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official |
| statistics, case #1263; Kevin D. Randle, Invasion Washington: UFOs |
| over the Capitol, p. 264; Don Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO |
| Unknowns). |
| |
| 1954 - Sometime after one o'clock in the morning and before 2:30 a.m. |
| Mr. L. T. Prewitt, an employee of the Red River Arsenal, sighted a |
| golden yellow light fly over his house in Texarkana, Texas for two |
| minutes, making a "shhhh" or buzzing sound. (Source: Project Blue |
| Book files counted in official statistics, case #3037; Don Berliner, |
| Project Bluebook UFO Unknowns). |
| |
| 1964 - In 1964 Mrs. Helen Reed of Lawrenceville, Illinois observed a |
| 15-foot-wide, domed, spinning object around 10:30 p.m. It was moving |
| five meters above the ground and less than 20 meters away. It made |
| sharp, 90 degree turns, and had colored lights emanating from the |
| dome (blue turning to red), and bands of yellow light. The object |
| went out of sight behind some trees to the north. (Sources: NICAP UFO |
| Investigator, August 1964, p. 8; Gordon I. R. Lore, Jr., UFOs: A New |
| Look, p. 14; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of |
| Landings, p. 300 (case 611)). |
| |
| 1964 - Also on the same night five witnesses, including Sheriff L. C. |
| Brinkerhoff of the Big Horn County, Wyoming sheriff's department had |
| a close encounter with a blue-green UFO that hovered over the |
| badlands near Burlington, Wyoming. It reacted to the sheriff's |
| spotlight by beaming a ray of light into the patrol car. (Sources: |
| NICAP UFO Investigator, August 1964, p. 6; George D. Fawcett, Flying |
| Saucers, October 1966, p. 30; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, |
| Volume II. A Thirty Year Report, p. 170). |
| |
| 1966 - Two ice cream truck drivers, Armstrong and Polomka, watched a |
| domed craft maneuvering in the sky for 20 minutes between Kingston |
| and Naracoorte, South Australia. A white light made up the body of |
| the craft, while a red light looked like a dome on top; the white |
| light was interlaced with smaller colored lights. It moved at |
| fantastic speeds. (Sources: Michael Hervey, UFOs Over the Southern |
| Hemisphere, p. 176; Keith Basterfield, Keith Basterfield |
| investigation files, case S017). |
| |
| 1966 - Max Baker, age 43, was driving west on Sandusky Road between |
| Kansas, Ohio and Toledo at 6:45 a.m. when a bright silver, metallic |
| cigar-shaped object appeared out of nowhere and buzzed his car. The |
| UFO was completely silent, and passed within 30 meters of his car, |
| flying low to the northeast. The close encounter lasted one minute. |
| His report to the Air Force remains a Project Blue Book unexplained |
| case. (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official |
| statistics, case # 10629; J. Allen Hynek, The UFO Experience, p. 15; |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 331; |
| Don Berliner, Project Bluebook UFO Unknowns; UNICAT, case # 185). |
| |
| 1966 - Also on that same evening, three young Canadians were driving |
| south of Castlegar Airport in British Columbia when they were chased |
| by an oval shaped object, about six feet in diameter. It gave off a |
| bluish glow and stayed parallel with the car as they drove along the |
| highway at about 45 m.p.h. It had beams of light pointing upward and |
| downward coming from it, as it flew about 10 feet above the power |
| lines. It made no noise. (Source: Charles Bowen, World Round-up, FSR, |
| November 1966, p. 33). |
| |
| 1968 - Between 4:30 and 5:00 p.m. a university professor named |
| Richalda and a woman accompanying him witnessed a 0.5 meter, |
| hat-shaped UFO that flew to the southwest while driving near a |
| hydro-electric dam in Capataneni, Bacau, Romania. The sighting lasted |
| two minutes. (Source: Ion Hobana & Julien Weverbergh, UFOs from |
| Behind the Iron Curtain, p. 172). |
| |
| 1974 - At Lake George near Goulbourne, New South Wales, Australia a |
| Mr. L, an elderly farmer, noticed an elongated luminous object in the |
| sky at around 11 p.m. on the night of June 7-8, 1974. It ejected a |
| "falling star" that approached to within two miles of him, hovering |
| about a half a mile up in the sky. It appeared as a red luminous |
| sphere. Later that night this sphere appeared to land behind some |
| trees several miles away. At around three o'clock in the morning he |
| went out with his dog to investigate, and walked toward the landing |
| site. He heard a number of other dogs barking, and a voice that |
| yelled, "shut up!", which caused him to stop. He sat down where he |
| was and waited until around 6:00 a.m., and then went on to the site |
| and found "an area of burnt vegetation for a distance of 200 yards." |
| When the witness was subsequently hospitalized and diagnozed with |
| paranoid schizophrenia, he was able to recall futher details. He |
| remembered that he had approached to withing 300 yards of the landed |
| object, and observed it through binoculars. Three or four men over |
| eight feet tall came from behind the landed craft and "floated" to |
| the ground. They were wearing glowing silver colored suits that |
| covered their bodies up to their necks. He could discern no facial |
| features on the beings. Later, a chute emerged from the object, and |
| down it came a number of cylindrical metal "packing cases." After |
| that, about 40 head of black cattle came down the chute, and were |
| driven away by normal looking men, accompanied by dogs. (Source: |
| David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, |
| case # 1974-27 (A1331), citing Bill Chalker & Keith Basterfield). |
| |
| 1986 - A 40-foot long, cigar-shaped UFO was seen in a red mist in |
| Metcalf, Illinois at 8:30 p.m. It was seen for 30 seconds, less than |
| half a mile away, and was completely silent. (Source: Bob Gribble, |
| UFO Reporting Center, case # 1119). |
| |
| 1990 - In 1990, the Bridges family of Navarre Beach, Florida observed a |
| cluster of 20-30 lights at 11:30 p.m. that appeared to be low over |
| the Gulf of Mexico about ten miles away from their home. These lights |
| would join together in a circular orbit and then shoot out in many |
| directions. Some of the paths were jagged with sharp turns and abrupt |
| stops, while others were smooth stops. The UFOs would then regroup |
| and repeat the process randomly. Another group of about 20 people, |
| who were visiting in rental units, also saw the display. The entire |
| event lasted about 30 minutes. (Source: Rex Salisberry, Gulf Breeze |
| Sentinel, Gulf Breeze, FL, June 14, 1990). |
| |
| 1991 - Civil radar tracked UFOs over Concepcion, Paraguay. Pilots |
| encountered and radar tracked a reddish oval-shaped object that paced |
| a small aircraft and then hovered above the airport; electro-magnetic |
| effects were reported on the plane. At around 6:00 p.m. an intense |
| bluish-white oval-shaped object buzzed a Japanese airliner, then |
| paced a Cessna for 25 minutes. (Sources: Richard H. Hall, The UFO |
| Evidence, Volume II. A Thirty Year Report, pp. 127, 245, 384; |
| Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 46, citing MUFON UFO |
| Journal, February 1994). |
| |
| 1994 - In a farming area outside of Padova (Padua), Italy at around |
| midnight a robot-like entity with lights approached the witness. It |
| used telepathy to communicate with the witness, warning him that it |
| meant no harm and there were 14 others just like him, hiding in the |
| nearby woods. It then lifted off vertically, and flew away. (Source: |
| Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue #329; Albert S. Rosales, 1994 Humanoid |
| Sighting Reports, case # 2366). |
| |
| 1998 - During the predawn hours of this morning in Puerto Rico the |
| witness, Belen, found herself seated on a stainless steel table that |
| floated in mid-air. To her left stood two short gray beings wearing |
| white coveralls. They just stood there looking at her, seemingly |
| waiting for something. At her feet stood a tall, human like figure, |
| with black hair, large eyes, fine chiseled facial features and very |
| thick eyebrows. She felt relaxed and unafraid. She asked the human |
| figure what were they doing, and his answer was, "We are preparing |
| you." She asked him not to leave any marks on her body this time, but |
| she was told that it was necessary, and that next time no scars or |
| marks will be left behind. She then lay back on the table and saw two |
| "tubes" descend from the ceiling. The tubes were also metallic and |
| emitted beams of light towards her stomach area. At this point she |
| lost consciousness. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| Database 1998, citing Lucy Guzman). |
| |
| 2002 - Dr. Joyce Pugh, a MUFON consultant, reported that on Saturday, |
| June 8, 2002 at about 10:30 p.m. she and her husband were driving on |
| Highway 319 toward Ocilla, Georgia when they sighted unusual lights |
| low in the overcast sky above the trees off to the left near Tifton, |
| Georgia. They were shaped like an elongated triangle with a white |
| light in each corner, and a red light in the bottom center. The |
| lights appeared to be on one object, which slowly moved across the |
| road. They turned off the highway to pursue it. They later sighted |
| two more craft with indistinct lights. They could hear the sound of |
| roaring jet engines apparently coming from the lights/craft, as they |
| seemed to fly along slowly. They went back to the area where |
| they observed the first object and once again observed hovering |
| lights. The lights crossed the road again and then disappeared as Dr. |
| Pugh continued to negotiate traffic. (Source: George A. Filer & David |
| E. Twichell, Filer's Files: Worldwide Reports of UFO Sightings, p. |
| 87-88, citing John Bodin & Tom Sheets). |
