|
||
| |
|
||
| 1905 - An intensely dark object flew over Llangollen, Gwynedd, Wales |
|
||
| at an altitude over two miles. (Source: Desmond Leslie, Flying |

||
| 1952 - At three o'clock in the morning Mr. Turason, a radar operator |
|
||
| working for ground control at Midway Airport in Chicago, Illinois |
|
||
| picked up 40 targets flying in miscellaneous directions, up to 175 |
|
||
| mph. Two of the blips seemed to fly in formation with a DC-6 |
|
||
| airliner. The radar sightings lasted a total of eight hours. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - At 5:50 p.m. two military observers at Davis-Monthan AFB in |
|
||
| Arizona saw seven large saucer-shaped objects, identical in |
|
||
| appearance, in changing formations. When they changed direction for |
|
||
| the last time all of them vanished. (Sources: Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A |
|
||
| History. September-October 1952, p. 7; Richard F. Haines, Project |

|
||
| 1953 - At 9:14 p.m. at Sidi Slimane AFB, Morocco pilot Lt. Col. |
|
||
| William Moore and co-pilot Lt. J. H. McInnis, flying in a C-47 |
|
||
| transport plane at 140 mph at 6000 feet altitude on a training |
|
||
| mission, encountered a very bright light that appeared on a collision |
|
||
| course with their aircraft. At the last minute the UFO levelled out. |
|
||
| It subsequently made a 90 degree and then it executed a 180 degree |
|
||
| turn. It descended to 700 feet or less, slowed and seemed to hover. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1954 - Twelve-year-old John Jacob Swain of Coldwater, Kansas had just |
|
||
| finished driving a tractor at 10:00 p.m. when he saw a dark |
|
||
| complexioned little man about the size of a five year old child |
|
||
| crouching about 20 feet away. The man had pointed ears and a pointed |
|
||
| nose, and wore shiny clothing. He also was carrying two two-foot long |
|
||
| cylinders on his back. He ran or glided, apparently floating across |
|
||
| the ground, to a 50 foot wide disc-shaped object hovering five feet |
|
||
| above the ground. He jumped in and took off without tilting the |
|
||
| saucer. Lights shone from windows or the craft as it flew off faster |
|
||
| than a jet. At the site were found numerous pear-shaped footprints 2 |
|
||
| inches wide x 4.5 inches in length, with very narrow heels. (Sources: |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1956 - At 4:30 a.m. a six meter long ovoid UFO hovered 5 feet over a |
|
||
| golf course in Dayton, Ohio. It illuminated an area 40 feet wide. The |
|
||
| sighting lasted more than 30 minutes, but the UFO vanished when the |
|
||
| 19-year-old witness shone a light on it. A Project Blue Book |
|
||
| "unknown." (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official |
|
||
| statistics, case 4379; Jacques Vallee, Anatomy of a Phenomenon, p. |
|
||
| 135; Richard F. Haines, CE-5: Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind, p. |
|
||
| 13). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1958 - At nine o'clock several violent bluish-white flashes were seen |
|
||
| at ground level in Docelles, France. The next day four deep |
|
||
| rectangular imprints were found in the ground at the site. The |
|
||
| imprints were five meters apart, and arranged in a square. (Source: |
|
||
| Lumieres dans la Nuit, September 1976). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - In the middle of the night Mr. & Mrs. Palmes noticed a large |
|
||
| dark gray object, covered with tiles and as large as a three-storey |
|
||
| building, in a nearby field while driving down a highway north of |
|
||
| Bunnell, Florida. The UFO then came and hovered over road, only 30-50 |
|
||
| feet away. The car's lights and engine died. The wife recalls seeing |
|
||
| short people in tight-fitting uniforms, and her husband being in a |
|
||
| trance. There was an undisclosed period of missing time. (Source: |
|
||
| David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, |
|
||
| case A0504, citing Norman Bean, Skylook, August 1975, p. 9). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 1:30 a.m. Ms. Barbara Ward, awakened by her baby, glanced |
|
||
| out her window on the Bentilee Estate, Stoke-on-Trent, England and |
|
||
| saw, a very bright yellow object with an orange light on top in the |
|
||
| adjacent field. It was shaped like an inverted saucer. It appeared to |
|
||
| be on the ground or just above it, and its light fluctuated in |
|
||
| intensity. She could hear no sound, though she was behind a glass |
|
||
| window. She reported to investigators Roger Stanway and Anthony Pace |
|
||
| that she "half imagined" she could see shadowy figures moving back |
|
||
| and forth in front of the bright light generated by the object. She |
|
||
| could not be certain because the bright light caused her eyes to |
|
||
| strain when looking at the object. After watching for half an hour |
|
||
| she became tired and went back to bed. The UFO had not moved during |
|
||
| her observation. Subsequent examination of the field failed to reveal |
|
||
| any traces. This sighting occurred during a spate of several UFO |
|
||
| incidents in the same area. (Sources: Roger Stanway & Anthony Pace, |
|
||
| UFOs Unidentified Undeniable, p. 11; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
|
||
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1967-87 (A0863), citing |
|
||
| Roger Stanway & Anthony Pace; UNICAT, case # 567). |

|
||
| 1967 - On this night Nelson Gutierrez, a salesman, encountered a |
|
||
| landed UFO on the Plains Highway, near the Hato Viejo farm outside of |
|
||
| Caracas, Venezuela. A being emerged from the object, and according to |
|
||
| press acounts the witness claimed to have taken a photograph of the |
|
||
| being. A copy of this photograph was not made available, and the |
|
||
| photographer's intent was to sell it when he had it developed. |

|
||
| 1968 - A brilliant royal blue ball of light with a whitish-yellow |
|
||
| outer ring hovered in the northwestern sky over Lockleys, South |

||
| It made no sound and left no smoke trail. (Source: Michael Hervey, |

|
||
| speed. It had green L-shapes with red light at each end. It became |
|
||
| oblong, then cigar shaped. (Sources: Mrs. K. Smith, BUFORA Journal, |

| |
|
||

||
| Milroy, Indiana a man saw a green, domed disc-shaped object descend |
|
||
| making a swishing sound, and he watched the object approach in his |
|
||
| car's rearview mirror. The UFO scooped up his car like a forklift. |
|
||
| The front and side windows were blacked out, and he could only see |
|
||
| out through the rear window. He had 95 minutes of missing time during |
|
||
| his abduction experience. (Sources: Richard Nottingham, MUFON field |

|
||
| sightings starting at around 11:00 p.m. of unidentified objects with |
|
||
| flashing lights. A hovering multi-colored object was observed, with a |
|
||
| red color predominating. It was then revealed to be a red disc, which |
|
||

|
||
| toward the north. (Source: Big Bear News, September 27, 1973). |

||
| |
|
||
| 1976 - At 5:00 a.m. a UFO with multiple lights was involved in a |
|
||
| close encounter in Jaca, Huesca, Spain. It moved toward the car of |
|
||
| two of the witnesses, circled around it, and then moved over it. A |
|
||
| truck driver was an independent witness. The UFO had a solid top, but |
|
||
| indistinct bottom; it was 7-8 meters in diameter, and made a soft |
|
||
| whistling sound. Physiological effects were reported. (Source: |
|
||
| UNICAT, case # 455, citing Stendek, December 1981, p. 7). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1978 - A metallic-looking, cigar-shaped object was seen taking off |
|
||
| from a field of maize at 8:10 a.m. in San Michele, Veneto, Italy. It |

||
| made a hissing sound. An area of crushed and dehydrated plants was |
|
||
| found at the landing site. It was 6.5 meters by 3 meters (20 feet x |
|
||
| 10 feet). There were reportedly several witnesses, including the main |
|
||
| witness, a 14-year-old named Pozzi. (Sources: FSR, March 1979, p. 6; |
|
||
| Allan Hendry, International UFO Reporter, October 1979, p. 14; |
|
||
| UNICAT, case # 108, citing Toselli, FSR;Richard H. Hall, The UFO |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1978 - On this night Gene LeTourneau, a newspaper reporter, and |
|
||

||
| |
|
||
| 1979 - The witness, a surveyor, was out picking mushrooms at five |
|
||
| o'clock in the afternoon in a wooded part of Petushka, Russia when he |
|
||
| came upon a large, shiny, metallic looking mushroom-shaped craft on |
|
||
| the ground. The bottom half of the craft emitted a soft pink light, |
|
||
| and the top domed section was encased in an orange mist. The craft |
|
||
| appeared to be spinning and emitting luminous flashes from its edges. |
|
||
| Two short men emerged from the object. They were strongly built with |
|
||
| broad shoulders and strong chests. They wore black tight-fitting |
|
||
| suits that covered their entire bodies. The suits had two small slits |
|
||
| at eye level. They were talking among themselves in a language that |
|
||
| sounded more like the twittering of birds than anything else. They |
|
||
| appeared to inspect the craft, and then were somehow sucked up inside |
|
||
| it. The UFO subsequently took off. On the spot where the object had |
|
||
| been resting the soil was found to be totally sterile with all living |
|
||
| organisms completely absent. (Sources: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |
|
||
| Contact Database 1979, case # 835, citing Gordon Creighton, FSR, Vol. |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1980 - At 9:30 a.m. a blimp-shaped object with eerie lights and odd |
|
||
| maneuvers was seen in Texarkana, Arkansas by a doctor who was also a |
|
||
| pilot; it vanished on the spot! (Sources: William D. Leet, MUFON UFO |
|
||

||
| |
|
||
| 1984 - A black, saucer-shaped UFO was seen for six minutes flipping |
|
||
| around the Inner Harbor area of Baltimore, Maryland in slow motion. |
|
||
| It was witnessed by many, including physicist Bruce Maccabee. |
|
||
| (Source: Bruce Maccabee, MUFON UFO Journal, May 1985). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1994 - On this night on Dry Creek, the Greenhorn Mountains, Huerfano |
|
||
| County, Colorado a local hunter was at his campsite when a large |
|
||
| group of "aliens dressed in camo appeared", and before he could |
|
||
| react, he was gassed, captured, and tied up. They never spoke to him, |
|
||
| and never fed him. He claims he survived by eating grasshoppers. The |
|
||
| camoflage wearing, human looking entities appeared to be conducting |
|
||
| "some sort of maneuvers." The group then began boarding a small, |
|
||
| silver colored flying object, and the witness was astonished when the |
|
||
| object appeared to expand in size to accommodate them all. The object |
|
||
| then took off, morphed into the shape of a bear, then morphed into "a |
|
||
| three headed wolf", then turned into a cloud. Later, law enforcement |
|
||
| personnel searched the area and found the witness's truck trashed, |
|
||
| the remains of his campfire, and "his half-burnt clothes" scattered |
|
||
| around the area. At the same time a second hunter was reported |
|
||
| missing in the same area, but when he finally showed up, he "raced |
|
||
| away in his truck without saying a word." a local hunter was captured |
|
||
| by human-like alien beings, dressed in camoflauge. Small silver UFO |
|
||
| grew in size, changed shape 2x. 2nd hunter also missing, wouldn't say |
|
||
| why. (Sources: Christopher O'Brien, The Mysterious Valley, p. 254; |
|
||
| Albert S. Rosales, 1994 Humanoid Contact Database, case # 2550, |
|
||
| citing Christopher O'Brien). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1995 - At 10:30 p.m. at the Bay Bridge in Pensacola, Florida two |
|
||
| witnesses watched a one foot in diameter red ball of light low over |
|
||
| some trees shoot out and back a number of times, swinging back in |
|
||
| forth in the sky in a pendulum motion. (Source: UFO Newsclipping |
|
