|
||
| |
|
||
| 1947 - According to files released by the FBI through FOIA requests |
|
||
| in the 1970s, at 10:40 a.m. at least two crescent-shaped objects |
|
||
| zig-zagged past a military aircraft twice while the plane was flying |
|
||
| near Guam over the Pacific Ocean. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, December |
|

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1947 - At around nine o'clock in the morning R. L. Johannis of Raveo, |
|
||
| Italy saw a 10 meter wide, red domed, disc-shaped object with an |
|
||
| antenna on top, on the ground across an ice field. There were two |
|
||
| dwarfs less than three feet tall near the craft, wearing dark blue |
|
||
| coveralls with red collars and belts. They had oversized heads and |
|
||
| greenish toned faces. Their eyes were huge, without eyelashes or |
|
||
| eyebrows but surrounded by some kind of ring-like muscle. The beings |
|
||
| had greenish hands with eight talon-like fingers. They wore something |
|
||
| similar to crash helmets. When he waved his ice axe at them in a |
|
||
| friendly gesture, one of the beings discharged a thin puff of smoke |
|
||
| or "vapor" at him which knocked him down, and the witness started to |
|
||
| suffocate, feeling at the same time a strong electrical |
|
||
| discharge. (Sources: Solas Boncompagni, UFO in Italia, Volume I, |

|
||
| diameter, metallic saucer with legs landed on a farm in Voghenza, |
|
||
| Italy. Six four-foot tall humanoids climbed down ladders, then |
|
||
| gestured to each other. They later got back aboard and took off, |
|
||
| flying off toward the northeast. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer |

|
||
| 1952 - At around noon, inflight over Rockhampton, Queensland, |
|

|
||
| object. The sighting lasted five minutes. (Sources: Bill Chalker, The |

| |
|
||
| 1955 - On this afternoon in Dogtown, Indiana a woman swimming in the |
|
||
| Ohio River, a Mrs. Johnson, had her left leg grabbed by a hairy |
|
||
| creature with large claws. It pulled her under the water twice, and |
|
||
| she was left with scratches and brushes. A shiny round object was |
|
||
| seen in the sky across the river a few minutes later. (Sources: |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - AT 8:55 p.m. a red domed disc-shaped object with a green dome |
|
||
| buzzed a Varig Airlines C-47 flying near Joinville, Santa Catarina |
|
||
| province, Brazil. It caused temporary disruption of the performance |
|
||
| of the engines and the electrical system. The reception of the |
|
||
| airplane's radio was suddenly interrupted when the red disc |
|
||
| approached the plane, while the cabin lights also dimmed. (Sources: |

|
||
| were reported to be suffering from conjunctivitis of the eyes. |

||
| |
|
||
| 1965 - On this day on the banks of the river in Cruzeiro, Santa |
|
||
| Catarina province, Brazil, a little man only 28" tall, introduced |
|
||
| himself to a fisherman named Joao do Rio as a UFOnaut. He had large |
|
||
| luminous eyes, and spoke perfect Portuguese. He gave Sr. do Rio an |
|
||
| "unearthly" metal. The metal was given to the national railroad car |
|
||
| factory for analysis. At 8:00 p.m. that same evening a motorist had a |
|
||
| close encounter with a black, 90-meter-wide domed disc, which hovered |
|
||
| silently over a highway southwest of Itabira, Minas Gerais province, |
|
||
| Brazil. The craft hovered just 1.2 meters above the surface of the |
|
||
| road, and it followed the contours of the terrain when it departed. |

||
| were in their home in Ville Lemoyne, Quebec, Canada when a strong |
|
||
| light attracted them to the window. Looking outside they saw a large |
|
||
| oval-shaped craft floating just above the ground. A tall humanoid |
|
||
| figure with long dangling arms, and wearing a silvery jumpsuit, stood |
|
||
| in front of the craft. The being walked towards the house and touched |
|
||
| the front door briefly, and then returned to the craft, while the |
|
||
| terrified witnesses hid in their room. They did not dare look to see |
|
||
| the craft or the alien depart. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, 1965 |

| Humanoid Contact Database, citing Marc Leduc, CASUFO). |
|
||
| 1965 - At 11:00 p.m. five people driving in a car in Salto, Uruguay |
|
||
| heard a loud hum and saw a UFO land directly in front of their car, |
|
||
| causing the engine to stall. Its brilliant white luminescence changed |
|
||
| colors from red to yellow and green. The object itself, a leaden |
|
||
| metallic color, stood nine feet high and was as wide as the road. |
|
||
| Three beings inside the craft, who looked human, were illuminated by |
|
||
| an interior green light and could be seen moving around inside the |
|
||
| craft. Finally, with a burst of orange flame, the object rose |
|
||
| vertically into the sky and vanished. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted |

| same road. The Richibucto RCMP searched the area. Although they |
|
||
| located a man dressed in black, he had was no apparent connection |
|
||
| with the encounters. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |

|
||

|
||
| rose into the sky, while the other dropped down into the sea. |

|
||
| railroad tracks. The creature was said to be about 40 feet away, and |
|
||
| the presence of a strong odor at the same time was noted. A |
|
||
| bloodhound team searched the area, but found nothing. A cigar-shaped |
|
||
| UFO was seen in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that same night at 9:35 p.m. |

|
||
| an oval shape. The object displayed lights that changed color and |
|
||
| pattern. (Source: Curt Sutherly, UFO Mysteries: A Reporter Seeks the |
|

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1999 - At 11:30 p.m. Sr. Attilio B. of Bassano del Grappa, Italy had |
|
||
| gone out to the field next to his home in order to relieve himself |
|
||
| when he noticed some nearby multicolored lights coming from a field |
|
||
| behind him. Investigating more closely, he saw a very large circular |
|
||
| object hovering about two meters off the ground. The craft was |
|
||
| somewhat turtle shaped, and was about 30 meters in diameter. The top |
|
||
| part of the object was completely transparent, so much so that it |
|
||
| appeared almost "invisible". The lower part consisted of a green |
|
||
| platform that had a hollow central section, like a donut. He could |
|
||
| not see any instruments inside the craft, but he could see five |
|
||
| occupants inside a well-lit white dome. He described them as short in |
|
||
| stature, about 80 cm tall, with large heads. According to the |
|
||
| witness, their heads somewhat resembled those of donkeys, because |
|
||
| they had extremely long faces and their heads were covered with short |
|
||
| black, curly hair. They had large round black eyes about 5 cm in |
|
||
| diameter that were very close together. Their noses were large and |
|
||
| "potato" like. Their mouths were large and wide, resembling those of |
|
||
| a monkey, with large meaty lips. On each side of their heads were two |
|
||
| large pointy ears, like those of a wolf. Their skin was light brown |
|
||
| in color and their hands had six digits. As the witness watched, one |
|
||
| of the humanoids made a gesture, which he interpreted as a salute. |
|
||
| The humanoids wore tight-fitting yellow outfits that went up to their |
|
||
| short necks. Their footgear resembled pointy sandals, similar to |
|
||
| those worn by "Gondoliers." He continued his observation, feeling a |
|
||
| sense of "joy and tranquility." He believed that the humanoids were |
|
||
| gentle and kind. One of the humanoids seemed to be counting some |
|
||
| yellow paper-like objects resembling banknotes. The whole incident |
|
||
| unfolded in complete silence. After about a minute and a half, the |
|
||
| object lifted up vertically, disappearing from the area at very high |
|
||
| speed. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, 1999 Humanoid Reports database, |
|
||
| citing Antonio Chiumiento). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2001 - Starting at 10:45 p.m. and for the next 15 minutes, twelve |
|
||
| white objects were seen performing maneuvers over Strathroy, Ontario, |

|
||
| circle, and they performed aerial aerobatics for the next several |
|
||
| minutes. (Source: Geoff Dittman, 2001 Canadian UFO Survey Report, |
|
||
| case # 235, citing National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle). |

|
||
| 2009 - A huge triangle-shaped object with spectacular lights was seen |
|
||
| zooming from the horizon in Chebanse, Iroquis County, Illinois at |
|
||

|
||
| altitude,"just about 12 feet above the ground," and came as close as |
|
||
| 500 feet away. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting |
