|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  May 29 |
| |
| 1950 - At 9:15 p.m. an American Airlines DC-6 flying at 8000' |
| altitude, climbing from Washington, D.C. and approximately over |
| Rappahannock, Virginia encountered a spindle-shaped UFO. The |
| object changed course to parallel the plane, then circled the |
| aircraft, and reversed direction before it went out of sight very |
| fast. It had a blue light on its front end. The sighting lasted |
| approximately one minute, and the object was not detected on radar. |
| There were three witnesses among the crew: Sperry, Bates, and |
| Arnholt. (Sources: Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, p. 39; UNICAT, |
| case # 719, citing Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1950: April-July; |
| True Magazine, August 1950). |
| |
| 1951 - At 3:41 p.m. there was a procession of a large number of |
| glowing objects--at least 30--over Downey, California. (Sources: H. |
| B. Darrach, Life Magazine, April 7, 1952; Leonard H. Stringfield, |
| CRIFO News, July 1954; Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1951, p. |
| 27; Richard F Haines, Project Delta: A Study of Multiple UFO, p. 180; |
| Jacques Vallee, Challenge to Science: The UFO Enigma, p. 212). |
| |
| 1952 - Gulf of Mexico near the Florida Keys -- At approximately 1700 |
| hours two eliptically shaped objects, larger than a fighter aircraft, |
| were observed from the USN aircraft carrier Oriskany CV-34. One |
| observer watched the objects through a telescope, while the radar |
| officer viewed the objects on the radar scope. The objects had a |
| bubble dome on the top. Each object flew at an estimated altitude of |
| between 10,000 and 15,000 feet at a supersonic speed and left a white |
| vapor trail. The objects' course paralleled that of the carrier. The |
| duration of the sighting was from 15 to 20 seconds. (Source: Francis |
| Ridge, Nuclear Connection Project, OSI report, NARA Project Blue Book |
| Roll 90, NARA-PBB90-1166). |
| |
| 1955 - Five rhomboid-shaped objects circled the airport at Pisco, |
| Peru at 11:00 p.m. They flew at one kilometer altitude, and were |
| viewed through a theodolite. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, August 1955; |
| Richard F Haines, Project Delta: A Study of Multiple UFO, p. 122).  |
| |
| 1967 - A "glowing red scallop" shaped object rocked slowly in the sky |
| over Saugus, Massachusetts ay 2:45 a.m., and then shot straight up |
| out of sight. (Source: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs: Interplanetary |
| Visitors, p. 333). |

| |
| 1967 - At one o'clock in the afternoon a small UFO, three feet in |
| diameter, traveled across Trout Brook Lake in New Brunswick, Canada. |
| It moved in a "spinning fashion, spraying water seven to eight |
| feet high, noisy, zipped into bushes. It came back and submerged." |
| (Source: report form in NICAP files from a military witness named |
| Nason). |
| |
| 1968 -  A blindingly bright circular UFO hovered at a low altitude |
| over Mosinee, Wisconsin at 10:00 p.m. while dogs in the town barked |
| furiously. There were electromagnetic effects during this close |
| encounter, and one of the six witnesses felt pressure on his |
| eardrums. (Source: J. Allen Hynek, The UFO Experience, p. 239). |
| |
| 1971 - At 4:00 a.m. four men out fishing on Buffumville Reservoir in |
| Oxford, Massachusetts were approached twice by a dark, domed |
| disc-shaped object that had a lighted rectangular window. It flipped |
| on edge to reveal a row of glowing ports around its peimeter. The |
| object moved up-and-down and back and forth in a pendulum motion. |
| (Sources: Spencer (Massachusetts) Leader, June 3, 1971; Raymond E. |
| Fowler, UFOs: Interplanetary Visitors, p. 357). |

| 1974 - Turis, Valencia, Spain - At 11:00 a.m. Sr. Palmero Camanez, a |
| 70-year-old farmer, was working in his fields on a sunny, hot day |
| when he heard what sounded like a police siren. He then saw a |
| metallic disc-shaped object with a cupola, only 150 meters away from |
| him. He estimated it was 2.5 meters in diameter and two meters in |
| height. (Source: Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos, OVNIS y la Ciencia, p. |
| 43; UNICAT, case # 497). |
| |
| 1975 - Two metallic hat-shaped discs flew southeast to northwest very |
| quickly over Montlucon, France at 7:00 p.m. They banked to one side |
| but continued on in a straight line, emitting beams of light. |
| (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, March 1976). |
| |
| 1979 - There were two high quality reports of aircraft encounters |
| with UFOs on this day. The first occurred at five minutes after |
| midnight over Hailey, Idaho when a Braniff Airlines crew, as well |
| as private pilots flying in the area, independently reported sighting |
| five orange objects in a line, moving to the left of the airliner. |
| The objects performed up and down and other maneuvers. The plane's |
| engines ran rough, and the compass and ADF system temporarily |
| malfunctioned. The second occurred around noon local time and |
| was tracked by ground radar at Cerro Moreno Air Force Base in Chile, |
| who were in radio contact with airborne military personnel, who had a |
| visual sighting of a black triangular object with two small tails. |
| The object made a turn, then moved in the opposite direction from the |
| aircraft.  (Sources: (1) Richard H. Hall, MUFON UFO Journal, February |
| 1984, p. 14; (2) Jane Thomas, UFO Newsclipping Service, August 1979, |
| p. 12, citing La Prensa, May 29, 1979; MUFON UFO Journal, November |
| 1979, p. 12). |
| |
| 1986 - On this night Sr. Flores was lying in his bedroom at home near |
| the city center of Santa Rosa, Argentina when he heard a loud buzzing |
| sound coming from outside. Simultaneously a powerful light came |
| shining through his window, while dogs in the neighborhood |
| began barking. As he looked outside he saw an object hovering above |
| the treetops near his house. He was confronted by two eight-foot tall |
| beings who were blocking his door. These creatures seemed to lack |
| mouths, noses, and ears; but they had dark eyes and long thin hands |
| with only three fingers, the middle one being the longest. The beings |
| wore silvery, tight fitting overalls with a wide belt having some |
| kind of tools or accessories hanging from them. He could also see |
| that each wore a necklace with a medallion on it. The beings were |
| busy making quick gestures, when they suddenly vanished. Sr. Flores |
| could then step outdoors and witnessed a ball shaped object moving at |
| high speed towards the south. (Sources: Patrick Huyghe, A Field Guide |
| to Extraterrestrials, p. 58;  Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| Database 1986, citing Fabio Picasso, Strange Magazine # 8). |
| |
| 1990 - A disc-shaped object landed by a garage in Frunze in the Asian |
| republic of Kyrgistan at 8:45 a.m. A three meter tall giant and six |
| short humanoids exited the craft via a ladder, and gathered samples |
| of oil and soil. (Source: Timothy Good, The UFO Report 1992, p. 67). |
| |
| 1990 - At 9:45 p.m. a "stingray" shaped craft flew over Evansille, |
| Indiana at a slow steady pace and low altitude. Its multicolored |
| lights were yellow, green, and red, and there were at least 15. It |
| flew over a populated area at only 200 feet from west to east on a |
| curved flight, and made no sound. (Source: Francis L. Ridge, Regional |
| Encounters, p. 134). |
| |
| 1994 - At two o'clock in the morning on Funen Island, Denmark a dog |
| whined as a UFO with a row of windows went slowly by to the west. An |
| orange, crescent-shaped object was seen in another town at the same |
| time. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 16392, citing |
| SUFOI News, issue #14). |
| |
| 1998 - A close encounter occurred in North Bend, Ohio in Hamilton |
| County at 1:30 a.m. A triangular shaped object was seen moving slowly |
| from the northeast to the southwest, crossing the Ohio River at 50 |
| meters altitude. It was making a humming sound, similar to the sound |
| of static from high tension wires. (Source: Peter Davenport, National |
| UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, Washington, May 1998 archived |
| webpage). |
| |
| 2003 - An early-morning  jogger saw a cross-shaped object with three |
| big lights that was hovering at a low altitude over Watertown Square |
| in Watertown, Massachusetts. It was estimated to be no more than 30 |
| stories above the ground when it was seen at 4:45 a.m. It emitted |
| beams of light that filtered through the fog and mist. It changed |
| direction, and then silently lifted away. (Source: Peter Davenport, |
| National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, Washington, May 2003 archived |
| webpage). |
| |
| 2007 - At 11:45 a large triangular shaped object was seen flying at |
| about 100 feet altitude between Pontrobert and Meiford in Wales, |
| United Kingdom. It had bright green and blue lights. A second object |
| with pink pulsating lights was also sighted. (Source: British |
| Ministry of Defence). |
