| Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
|

| |
|
||
| January 22 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1919 - A two foot wide, intense glowing ball flew slowly at a low |
|
||
| altitude over Shuttlewood, Derbyshire, England at 8:10 p.m. It |
|
||
| engaged in controlled maneuvers for 45 minutes. There were at least |
|
||
| 40 witnesses. (Source: Ananda Sirisena, FSR, March 1975, p. 17). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1945 - On this afternoon Allied POWs on the ground watched a white, |
|
||
| football-shaped object following a bomber at 18,000 feet between |
|
||
| Heydebreck and Kedzierzyn, Poland. On the same day there was an |
|
||
| unexplained skyquake in Louisville, Kentucky. (Sources: (1) Jenny |

|

|
||
| magazine, 1945, p. 172). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1950 - At around 4:00 a.m. a radar blip was detected approaching the |
|
||
| Kodiak Islands at 1,800 mph over Kodiak, Alaska, according to |
|
||
| airborne radar. It then buzzed several planes and boats. A U.S. Navy |
|
||
| plane failed to intercept the UFO because it was too highly |
|
||
| maneuverable. It had two orange lights rotating about the center, and |
|
||
| made no detectable sound. (Sources: Bruce Maccabee, MUFON UFO |

|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1951 - A saucer-shaped object hovered next to a test balloon 50 miles |
|
||
| southeast of Holloman AFB, New Mexico. It grew in dimensions, and |
|
||
| flashed once every second. It flew off to the west. (Source: Loren E. |
|
||
| Gross, UFOs: A History. 1951, p. 9). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - At 12:20 a.m. a radar station at Murphy's Dome, Alaska tracked |
|
||
| a UFO moving at 1,500 mph at 23,000 feet. Three F-94s were vectored |
|
||
| in. There were solid radar returns on the ground radar as well as two |
|
||
| airborne radars. At one point the short range radar stopped working, |
|
||
| preventing anything being tracked close to the station. The third jet |
|
||
| approached to within 200 meters of the UFO, but pulled up for fear of |
|
||
| a mid-air collision. No radar malfunctions were found. (Sources: |

|
||
| boomerang-shaped object from Wharton and El Campo, Texas on this |

|
||

||
| 1971 - Three bus company employees were towing a bus from East |
|
||
| Budleigh to Exmouth, England when they saw three orange balls of |
|
||
| light in a straight line move across the sky. They had "a lot of |
|
||
| smoke around them and they disappeared after a few seconds." (Source: |
|
||
| Mrs. K. Smith, BUFORA Journal, August 1971, p. 25, citing the West |

||
| 1971 - Two boys, Stewart and Lyle Leppke of Peabody, Kansas were |
|
||
| doing their early morning farm chores at around dawn when they |
|
||
| observed a lighted object in the cattle lot. When they flashed their |
|
||
| light on it, they saw a diminutive figure less than two feet tall |
|
||
| moving about near a UFO with small windows that was hovering just |
|
||
| above the ground. They immediately went to the house to tell their |
|
||
| mother who called the sheriff; but the UFO had departed by the time |
|
||
| the sheriff got there. The boys said the object hovered a few feet |
|
||
| off the ground, and when it departed it tipped to one side and then |
|
||
| sped rapidly up and away. (Sources: Peabody (KS) Gazette Herald, |
|
||

| |
|
||
| 1971 - At 9:05 p.m. Richard Williams, his wife, and son were driving |
|
||
| toward Willard, Ohio from the north when they saw a low flying object |
|
||
| that "looked like a bat" coming toward their car. "On the middle of |
|
||
| each wing there seemed to be a rocket or a jet engine, and it had red |
|
||
| and white lights on each wing and on the tails." They thought at |
|
||
| first it was a plane crashing. It was 25-30 feet in diameter and came |
|
||
| to within 100 feet off their car and then took off toward the east. |
|
||
| There was a transparent "cockpit" in the front of the object, through |
|
||
| which could be seen the movements of some kind of humanoid creature, |
|
||
| silhouetted by a flashing light behind it. Multiple reports of UFO |
|
||
| sightings this night came from Tiro, Sandusky, and other sections of |
|
||
| Huron County, Ohio around the same time. (Sources: Norwalk (OH) |

|
||

|
||
| implanted into her head. During the exam, the aliens were |
|
||
| particularly interested in her hands and wrists. A tube was inserted |
|
||
| into her body and she could feel fluid or drugs going through her |
|
||
| arms. They communicated with her using telepathy, and told her that |

|
||
| reached a place by a small lake in Prospect, Connecticut at 10:03 |
|
||
| p.m. He noticed someone walking along the road so he flashed on his |
|
||
| high beams. He then saw the figure walk out from the side of the |
|
||
| road, stop in the center for a second, then continue across. It was |
|
||
| grayish in color and it was walking on two legs, but it ambulated |
|
||
| like an ape walks, swaying as it walked erect. The feet were small |
|
||
| with brownish-black areas on the side. When it reached the other side |
|
||
| it stopped and looked at the witness, waving its skinny arms. Lights |
|
||
| appeared behind it. The man described the creature as around six feet |
|
||
| tall, with large, foot-long pointy ears. The eyes were dark black |
|
||
| with no apparent nose. Although the weather was cold, the witness did |
|
||
| not see any condensed breath come from its small mouth. The mouth had |
|
||
| a red silver strip on top. As the witness drove by he looked back to |
|
||
| see the creature still standing by the road, and the woods behind the |
|
||
| creature suddenly lit up like day. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, |

|
||
| lights in Oxnard, California. The object moved back and forth in the |
|
||
| sky. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, January |
|
||
| 2003 webpage). |

|
||

|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2005 - Four discs flew east over the mountains in Rancho Cucamonga, |
|
||
| California at 9:16 a.m.; they were shiny and reflective like polished |

|
||
| started to approach the area and the four objects vanished |
|
||
| immediately as the aircraft came into view. (Source: George A. Filer |
