|  March 25 |
| |
| 1942 - At midnight U.S. Airman Sobinski and another Army Air Force |
| crewman sighted a luminous orange object closely following their |
| warplane over the Zuider Zee, North Holland, The Netherlands. They |
| fired several rounds at the object. (Sources: Dominique Weinstein, |
| Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 6, citing Jerome Clark; Richard Hall, |
| From Airships to Arnold: A Preliminary Catalogue of UFO Reports in |
| the Early 20th Century (1900-1946), p. 19; Richard M. Dolan, UFO's |
| and the National Security State: Chronology of a Cover-up 1941-1973, |
| p. 396). |
| |
| 1954 - At 3:30 p.m. a U.S. Marine Corps pilot sighted a disc-shaped |
| object flying at 3000 feet altitude over Cape Canaveral, Florida. The |
| UFO evaded being filmed by the warplane's gun camera. (Sources: |
| Donald E. Keyhoe, Flying Saucer Conspiracy, p. 115; Dominique |
| Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 23). |
| |
| 1958 - Two disc-shaped objects made fast maneuvers over the Woomera |
| Missile Test Range at 10 p.m. in the desert of South Australia. They |
| shimmered and changed colors as they flew. (Sources: Michael Hervey, |
| UFOs over the Southern Hemisphere, p. 50; Loren E. Gross, The Fifth |
| Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1958: March-April, p. |
| 53). |
| |
| 1959 - Two silver spheres joined by a cylinder changed shape to a |
| disc over Warsaw, Poland at around 11:30 a.m. (Source: Ion Hobana & |
| Julien Weverbergh, UFOs from Behind the Iron Curtain, p. 212). |
| |
| 1960 - Making a noise like a gas turbine, a cylindrical UFO hovered |
| over Vichel at around 3 p.m. in Puy-de-Dome department, France for |
| more than five minutes, then shot away to the southeast, traveling |
| sideways like an arrow. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, |
| case 5897, citing Lumieres dans la Nuit Lecteurs). |
| |
| 1966 - At 11:45 p.m. John King, age 22, working with the Bangor, |
| Maine Police Department, suddenly saw above him a very bright object |
| with a dark underside. He fired at it four times with his pistol, |
| hearing the bullets hit a metal surface as the object flew off. |
| (Sources: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, |
| case 736). |
| |
| 1967 - Three red discs hovered over Highway 10C in Joplin, Missouri |
| in the predawn hours. They had windows with white light coming from |
| them. The rose and flew toward the west, where they were joined by a |
| fourth flying disc. (Source: APRO Bulletin, May-June 1967, p. 1). |
| |
| 1967 - An intensely luminous object woke up several residents in |
| Iguala, Mexico at dawn. People in trains going to Acapulco and people |
| travelling by car saw the same phenomenon. The UFO came down to |
| ground level giving off a blinding light, then took off. (Source: |
| Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case |
| 828). |
| |
| 1971 - At 12:30 a.m. six soldiers stationed at a radar base at Monte |
| Pani, Cabo De Creus, Spain were alerted by another soldier to a fiery |
| red, disc-shaped craft moving slowly over the area. The guard dogs |
| began howling, and the men all watched as the UFO suddenly shot away |
| at high speed. Moments later one of the soldiers screamed in pain |
| from a sudden bright flash that seemed to come from the ocean nearby. |
| Meanwhile one of the soldiers released one of the guard dogs, a |
| wolfhound with a fierce disposition, that was going crazy inside his |
| cage. The dog ran immediately towards some nearby buildings and was |
| followed closely by two of the men. The dog slowed down and began to |
| grow menacingly, and one of the men felt heavy static in the air and |
| his tongue began to itch. Both men then heard a loud noise coming |
| from some nearby bushes. They saw a huge bulky figure that seemed to |
| move clumsily among the brush. The men yelled at the figure to stop |
| but it changed directions and began moving away quickly. Seconds |
| later the men heard another noise and felt something heavy moving |
| towards them. They fired their weapons in the direction of the noise |
| and everything became silent. A search of the area the next day |
| proved fruitless. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| Database 1971, case # 1417, citing Antonio Ribera, Los Doce |
| Triangulos De La Muerte). |
| |
| 1971 - At 8:10 p.m. two girls riding ponies in Denton, England saw a |
| bright orange cross in the sky emitting sparks. It followed them to |
| the end of a road, then vanished with a bang. One of the ponies was |
| spooked by the explosion. (Source: FSR, March 1972, p. 28). |
| |
| 1972 - At 3:30 a.m. the witness was roused from sleep at his home in |
| Soesterberg, Utrecht, The Netherlands by a loud humming sound and saw |
| a bright light from his window. Looking out, he saw a blinding white |
| light surrounded by a fog, and thought that his car was on fire. He |
| ran out, started his car, and began to move it. His next recollection |
| was that he found himself in a deserted moorland, and he stopped his |
| car. Next, a "human like figure" ran past the car from the rear and |
| then "suddenly...vanished." He got out of the car and saw a |
| lens-shaped object on the ground to his left, about 100 feet wide, |
| surrounded by a greenish glow. The green light came from windows in |
| the craft, and three beams shining upward from it. In one of the |
| windows he could see a human-like being. He approached on foot to |
| within 10-12 feet, and he saw this figure motion to him to go back. |
| The figure was between five foot and five foot four inches tall, and |
| wore a tight fitting metallic looking coverall that had a belt with a |
| tube that ran to his collar. He had almond shaped eyes and seemed to |
| be smiling. Behind him was some sort of instrument panel. Several |
| other humanoid beings were seen standing behind other windows. Then |
| the object then "jumped" from the ground, floated for 30 feet, and |
| then "hurled away" with a scraping noise to the wouthwest. Traces |
| were later found at the landing site. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, August |
| 1976, p. 6; G. S. Wiersema, FSR, November 1972, p. 10; Ted R. |
| Phillips, Physical Traces Associated with UFO Sightings, case 509; |
| David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, |
| case 1972-07 (A1146), citing the Dutch Ufological Study Center, The |
| Hague). |
| |
| 1973 - Just after midnight Mr. Brechant, his 11-year-old son Patrice, |
| and his brother in law, Mr. Cosme, were driving in a car on a dark |
| night on a UFO hunting expedition in Therines, Oise, France. They |
| spotted a luminous ball in a field near Songeons only 250-300 meters |
| away. The light diminished in intensity, and for a few seconds 4-6 |
| white luminous rectangles appeared next to it. Then next tried to |
| drive around the field and observe the light from the rear. A second |
| luminous ball was then seen in another field about 200 yards away. |
| From its base emerged a triangular beam of light, with its base on |
| the sphere and its apex pointing toward the left. Through a pair of |
| binoculars Mr. Cosme could see two luminous silhouettes of humanoid |
| beings, one behind the beam and one "sliding on it" towards the |
| point, where it disappeared. They seemed to have elongated heads and |
| enormously broad shoulders. He could not distinguish arms and legs, |
| but the one behind the beam seemed to be carrying a sack on its left |
| side. This silhouette gradually "evaporated," then the triangular |
| beam went out, and next the luminous ball turned off. On their way |
| home their car was pursued by a ball of yellow-white light, then |
| yellowish green light at treetop level, which was first seen 300 |
| meters away and later approached to within 50 meters. (Sources: Alain |
| Garnard, UFO Register, volume 7, p. 44; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, |
| HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1973-88 (A1196), citing |
| M. Carof & M. Lesbros, Lumieres dans la Nuit). |
| |
| 1973 - At 11:00 p.m. a witness driving in Villevueve-sur-Lot, |
| Lot-Garonne, France had a close encounter with a blazing ovoid object |
| on the road ahead. The diesel engine of the car stopped, and the |
| driver was frozen with paralysis for over a minute. (Source: Larry |
| Hatch, U computer database, case 9891, citing Phenomenes Spatiaux, |
| issue 40). |
| |
| 1974 - The witness was driving near Nogaro, Gers, France at 3:00 a.m. |
| when the car engine died. A 0.9 meter tall green-colored dwarf was |
| seen by the side of the road, who had unusually long arms. The car |
| engine restarted spontaneously after coasting past the dwarf creature |
| and the witness drove off. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, |
| case 11236, citing Michel Figuet & Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le Premier |
| Dossier Complet des Rencontres Rapprochees en France, p. 462). |
| |
| 1974 - At 7:15 a.m. a 34-year-old man was driving in |
| Balagny-sur-Therain, Oise, France an sighted a reddish orange ovoid |
| shaped object hovering ahead of his car. The object shot up rapidly |
| into the sky in a vertical ascent when witness's car neared. |
| (Sources: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue # 142, p. 12; Michel Figuet |
| and Louis Ruchon, OVNI: Le Premier Dossier Complet des Rencontres |
| Rapprochees en France, p. 479). |
| |
| 1974 - Two farmers watched an orange ovoid object ascend from the |
| ground in Ossey-les-Trois-Maison, France at 8:30 p.m. Ground traces |
| were found. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, October 1975). |
| |
| 1981 - At 7:15 p.m. the crews of six boats saw a gray colored, 60 |
| meter tall cone-shaped UFO hovering one meter over the sea off the |
| coast of Ayamonte, Huelva, Spain for 20 minutes. It then ascended |
| vertically. The weather was clear at the time of the sighting. |
| (Source: APRO Bulletin, November 1981, p. 1). |
| |
| 1986 - A triangular object with rounded apexes approached and then |
| hovered ahead of a car with three witnesses near Downingtown, |
| Pensylvania at 12:30 a.m. It made no sound. The encounter lasted more |
| than four minutes. (Sources: MUFON UFO Journal, December 1986, p. 8; |
| Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II: A Thirty-Year Report, |
| p. 368). |
| |
| 1995 - A huge luminous hemisphere or dome shaped observed was |
| observed covering the roadway between Alencon and Bernay, Eure, |
| France at around 4:00 a.m. A conical beam of light came from the |
| bottom of the object. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case |
| 17178, citing |
| Banque OVNI, issue # 95). |
| |
| 2004 - At around 7:00 p.m. the crew of a commercial airliner flying |
| near Omaha, Nebraska reported seeing four disc-shaped objects, which |
| remained visible ahead of the aircraft for between 10 and 15 |
| minutes.  The objects did not appear on FAA radar at anytime during |
| the entire sighting. They had many lights and flew off to the west, |
| where they were lost from view (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO |
| Reporting Center, Seattle, March 2004 archived webpage; Larry Hatch, |
