|
||
| |
|
||
| 1908 - On this morning at 7:17 a.m. the Tunguska, Russia explosion |
|
||
| occurred in a remote region of the Siberian taiga, which brightened |
|
||
| the pre-dawn sky as far away as London and had the equivalent |
|
||
| energy of a 15 to 40-megaton nuclear explosion. Detailed scientific |
|
||
| analysis shows that the object that caused the devastation exploded |
|
||
| above an altitude of three miles and left an area of destruction for |
|
||
| more than 850 square miles, in a heart-shaped pattern. It is widely |
|
||
| thought to have been either an asteroid or comet impact, but it has |
|
||
| sometimes been interpreted as the crash or mid-air explosion of an |
|
||
| alien spaceship. Several anomalies still remain to be explained if |
|
||
| the explosion was caused by a celestial body entering Earth's |
|
||
| atmosphere. For example, why was radioactive Cesium 137 found in 1908 |
|
||
| tree rings from the area. (Sources: William R. Corliss, Remarkable |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1947 - A Navy Lieutenant named McGinty was flying in a P-80 fighter |
|
||
| aircraft near Williams Field, Arizona at 9000 meters altitude when |
|
||
| toward the south when he saw two circular objects diving at an |
|
||
| "unconceivable" speed. They were gray, about three meters in |
|
||
| diameter, and appeared to land 40 kilometers south of the Grand |
|
||
| Canyon. (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official |

|
||
| 11). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1954 - At 6:50 p.m. a silvery metallic fuselage-shaped UFO with |
|
||
| stubby wings was tracked on radar and also observed from the tower by |
|
||
| two air traffic controllers at Brookley Air Force Base in Mobile, |
|
||
| Alabama. The object came from the south and circled the city. There |
|
||
| was no sound detected from the craft as it flew in what was described |
|
||
| as a highly maneuverable manner and at a high speed, shooting off to |
|
||
| the northeast. (Sources: Donald E. Keyhoe, Flying Saucer Conspiracy, |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1955 - A tanker crew in a vessel near Pantelleria Island off the |
|
||
| coast of Sicily in the Mediterranean Sea, at around ten o'clock in |
|
||
| the morning, sighted a cigar-shaped object at 7,000 feet altitude, |
|
||
| emitting strong beams of light. The crew watched it for more than 16 |
|
||
| minutes. (Source: Loren E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the |
|
||
| Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. 1955: January-June, p. 86). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1956 - At 2:30 p.m. three glowing cigar-shaped objects sped over the |
|
||
| city of Wellington, New Zealand. At 5:54 p.m. several orange discs |
|
||
| were later seen for several minutes over Nelson, New Zealand. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1957 - Starting at 6:30 p.m. a bright red-orange disc maneuvered |
|
||
| around a Real Aerovias DC-3 airliner flying from Belo Horizonte to |
|
||
| Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and subsequently paced the aircraft for 40 |
|
||
| minutes. It made several passes, crossing above or under the |
|
||
| airliner, and then in front and behind it. (Sources: Richard Hall, |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - A U.S. Navy Commander and a female companion at the Patuxent |
|
||
| River Naval Air Station in Lexington Park, Maryland sighted a |
|
||
| metallic gold, oblate object at 8:23 p.m. EDT. He spotted it to the |
|
||
| north; the UFO traveled in a straight and level flight path.A Project |
|
||

|
||
| p. 179; Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence, p. 77). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1962 - At 9:00 a.m. a 13-year-old reported seeing a red, circular |
|
||
| object with some white lights in Richmond, Virginia. He observed it |
|
||
| for ten minutes as the object climbed and banked. A Project Blue Book |
|
||
| "unknown." (Source: Paris Flammonde, UFO Exist!, p. 367). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1964 - In Wellford, South Carolina a disc-shaped object with an |
|
||
| antenna followed a car for many miles beginning at one o'clock in the |
|
||
| morning. It departed when the car's driver turned the car |
|
||
| headlights off. The duration of the close encounter was 50 minutes. |
|
||
| (Source: Frank Edwards, Flying Saucers--Serious Business, p. 69). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At two o'clock in the morning in Rapid City, South Dakota |
|
||
| three police officers named Eisnach, Ferguson, and Sinner had a |
|
||
| close encounter with a huge multi-colored object with three windows |
|
||
| and red, green, and white flashing lights. They witnessed it as it |
|
||
| took off from the ground, hovered just above some nearby trees, made |
|
||
| some jerky movements, and then landed again. It took off once again |
|
||
| and went over hill. As it did so the white light on the object |
|
||
| intensified. The entire incident lasted two and a half hours. |
|

|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - Mrs. Lemarquandsa was walking through her house around six |
|
||
| o'clock in the evening in Thompson, Manitoba when she heard an odd |
|
||
| beeping sound. It was repeated at regular intervals about once a |
|
||
| second, and she wondered what was causing it. She looked out her |
|
||
| kitchen window, and saw dirt and loose pieces of paper flying in a |
|
||
| large circle around her house. Outside, she found her husband, who |
|
||
| had just come home, and five children staring up into the sky. A |
|
||
| young boy was holding her eight-year-old daughter down on the ground. |
|
||
| Up in the sky a box-shaped or rectangular object hung in the air, |
|
||
| slowly rotating counter-clockwise and showing alternating silver |
|
||
| metallic and black sides. It was black on its lower surface, and made |
|
||
| no noise. The object began moving off at an angle, stopped and |
|
||
| hovered, and then continued towards the southeast. Until this time |
|
||
| the circle of dirt and dust had persisted, but it now died down. The |
|
||
| whirlwind was confined to the area immediately around their house and |
|
||
| did not affect any other houses on the street. When the object moved |
|
||
| away, the dirt fell to the ground. Going to the children, the woman |
|
||
| found they were calming down except her daughter, who seemed dazed. |
|
||
| The boy explained that the five of them had been playing in the yard |
|
||
| when the object first appeared overhead. As they watched, her |
|
||
| daughter had been levitated into the air, and this levitation was |
|
||
| apparently caused by the UFO in the sky. By the time the other |
|
||
| children had come to her aid, she was about one meter off the ground |
|
||
| and her clothes had edged up her body. Her daughter said she did not |
|
||
| remember anything from the time she felt the wind until the time she |
|
||
| recovered after being dragged back to the ground. (Sources: Gene |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1968 - At 1:15 a.m. Jose Paulino Nunez, a distillery worker, |
|
||
| encountered two people on the beach in Lujan, Mendoza, Argentina that |
|
||
| he first mistook to be guards. Their dress and actions were like |
|
||
| normal people, but they showed him a spherical device some 30 cm in |
|
||
| which he could see images of people walking about. Speaking in a |
|
||
| strange, metallic voice, one of them asked him, "Do you know these |
|
||
| people? They were like you. Many more will be like them. Many people |
|
||
| in the world will see the same thing you have seen. We will talk |
|
||
| about this again. If you speak of this, be sure it is with |
|
||
| responsible people." At that point the witness experienced a lapse of |
|
||
| memory, for the next thing he recalls was being back in the |
|
||
| laboratory, where it took him an hour to compose himself. The people |
|
||
| he saw in the images were all tall and human like, with pale |
|
||
| complexions, and long, light colored hair, who appeared to be walking |
|
||
| about in a trance. (Sources: David F. Webb and Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: |
|
||
| Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1968-38, citing Richard Heiden, & |
|
||
| Jader Pereira; Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue # 110). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1972 - In the afternoon at 4:30 p.m. a disc-shaped object with a |
|
||
| tailfin like an airplane hovered over Marcq-en-Baroeul, Nord |
|
||
| department, France. Many black dot-like objects could be seen |
|
||
| orbiting around the larger craft. There were two witnesses, and the |
|
||
| sighting lasted two minutes. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, March |
|
||
| 1975). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1983 - At their home in the suburbs near Indianapolis, Indiana a |
|
||
| mother, "Kathy Davis" and her daughter separately witnessed a large |
|
||
| light appear over their pool house after 10:45 p.m. They then had two |
|
||
| hours of missing time. Under hypnosis, both remembered that an |
|
||
| egg-shaped object landed in the yard and burned the grass. An |
|
||
| abduction by Grey aliens followed, involving a medical exam on board |
|
||
| the craft. They were left with a mental warning not to remember the |
|
||
| details of their abduction experience. The next day both felt |
|
||
| nauseous. (Sources: Budd Hopkins, Intruders; Thomas E. Bullard, UFO |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1990 - Three office workers in Wilmington, Delaware saw a four-sided |
|
||
| pyramid (tetrahedron) at around 7:00 p.m. that was flat yellow in |
|
||
| color with orange-red edges. It was slowly spinning and ascending, |
|
||
| and made no sound. There was a black cylinder protruding from its |
|
||
| base. They watched it for 20 minutes. (Source: Donald M. Ware, MUFON |
|
||
| UFO Journal, April 1993, p. 17). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1990 - Thirty minutes earlier, at 11:30 p.m. in Maubeuge, Nord |
|
||
| department, France a large black triangular object with lights in the |
|
||
| three corners and the center, moved slowly and silently from north to |
|
||
| south over the city. There were four witnesses. (Source: Lumieres |
|
||
| dans la Nuit, issue # 302). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1994 - At 11:00 p.m. a car-sized disc was seen in Champagnole, Jura |
|
||
| department, France at only 100 feet altitude. It moved slowly and |
|
||
| silently, and stopped in place for 5 minutes, then shot away. |
|
||
| (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue # 329). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1995 - At around three o'clock in the morning a security guard in the |
|
||
| town of Chalons-sur-Marne, Marne department, France saw |
|
||
| a crescent-shaped flying object, the apparent size of the Moon, that |
|
||
| appeared to have portholes. He experienced radio |
|
||
| communication interference during his UFO sighting. (Source: Lumieres |
|
||
| dans la Nuit, issue # 333). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2000 - At 10:30 p.m. in Paso Robles, California a formation of three |
|
||
| small, satellite-like lights, performed figure-8 movements around one |
|
||
| another in the night sky over Lake Nacimiento for three minutes. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2003 - At around 9:00 p.m. in New Brighton, Pennsylvania a black |
|
||
| triangular-shaped object surrounded by silver spheres was |

||
| |
|
||
| 2008 - A close encounter occurred between Cardiff and Atlantic City, |
|
||
| New Jersey on the Atlantic City Expressway at 10:25 p.m. A 25-foot |
|
||
| wide triangular craft was seen hovering or moving very slowly, just |
|
||
| 40 feet directly above the expressway, very close to and in front of |
|
||
| the witnesses. Its speed appeared to be quite slow, moving at an |
|
||
| estimated ten miles per hour, and it passed directly over their |
|
||
| vehicle as they drove under it. They saw it again, twice in the next |
|
||
| five minutes. (Source:Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, |
|
