| 1950 - Provincetown, Massachusetts. At 9:52 a.m. an M.I.T. research |
| associate and Air National Guard Major M. H. Ligda observed the radar |
| tracking of a UFO during an M.I.T. tracking of a flight of two USAF |
| F-84 or F-86 jet fighters. The object's speed was calculated as 22 |
| miles/minute (1,200 mph), and it executed a turn of 11-12 Gs |
| acceleration during the one-minute observation. (Sources: Project |

| Spain when between the towns of Santa Coloma and La Roca in Barcelona |
| province he saw a very bright "casserole" shaped object on the |
| ground. Near it were several small beings with large heads, who were |
| approaching the UFO. At that point his car "reared" and Sr. Edrosa |
| became panic stricken, fleeing on foot. Unnerved by the experience, |
| he was hospitalized for an extended period of time. (Sources: |

| Events in Spain and Portugal, case 78, citing Stendek, August 1972, |
| p. 30; Vicente-Juan Balester Olmos, FSR, May 1973, p. 19). |
| |
| 1968 - In Coaticook, Quebec, Canada two young girls reported they saw |
| a "Martian" on the roof of the local high school. By 9:30 p.m. a |
| crowd of some 50 people had assembled to see what was going |
| on. Shirley Green said that she saw a "green face with no nose, mouth |
| or hair," and that the strange man emitted intermittent sparks. In a |
| nearby field the grass had been burned in a circle 42 feet in |
| diameter, and some tracks were found. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted |
| Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1968-98 |
| (A0983), citing Gene Duplantier, Saucers, Space & Science, issue # |

| |
| 1968 - At 10:30 p.m. a dark disc-shaped object with a series of |
| square windows, rotating clockwise, moved slowly and silently through |
| the skies over Linton, Indiana.  It was half the size of a pea at |
| arm's length, and its lights were large, three-quarters the height of |
| the object itself. (Source: Francis L. Ridge, NICAP investigation |
| files, October 21, 1968). |
| |
| 1970 - A round object with a halo hovered over St. Jean, Switzerland |

| |
| 1972 - Three witnesses were driving in Rougemont, Quebec, Canada at |
| 12:30 a.m. when they witnessed a Saturn-shaped disc making pendulum |
| movements in the sky, then landing on Mount Rouge. The object |
| was 100-150 feet in diameter and had a row of oval windows. The |
| driver, Mr. G. Poisson, flashed his car headlights at the UFO, and |
| the object responded by diving and coming straight at them, passing |
| only 30 feet overhead. (Sources: Wido Hoville, Canadian UFO Report, |
| Spring 1974; Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving Vehicle |
| Interference, p. 55; Richard F. Haines, CE-5: Close Encounters of the |
| Fifth Kind, p. 40). |
| |
| 1972 - At 5:40 a.m. in Santa Isabel, Cordoba province, Argentina Sr. |
| Teodoro Merlo, age 56, a maintenance worker at the Ika-Renault car |
| factory, unlocked and entered a company washroom and was surprised to |
| encounter a "man" nearly eight-feet tall sitting on the long |
| washbasin. The being's complexion was very pallid, and he had a bald |
| head with high, pointed ears. The giant wore a very tight-fitting, |
| dark blue one-piece garment. He noticed the uniform was glove-tight |
| at the wrists, and that the being held his right forefinger below his |
| nose. The figure suddenly vanished unaccountably from the washroom, |
| in which the temperature was abnormally high. Lights in the building |
| went on and off by themselves. Sr. Merlo later suffered eye |
| irritation, repeated headaches, and back pain in his lumbar region |
| for eight days. The witness reported that he again saw the face of |
| the entity in a mirror on the bus the next day. (Sources: Oscar A. |
| Galindez, FSR, August 1975, p. 11; UNICAT, case # 576; David F. Webb |
| & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1972-26 |
| (A1169); Stendek, December 1973, p. 15). |
| |
| 1974 - In Huntsville, Ontario, Canada Oscar Magocsi, a Hungarian-born |
| radio technologist, claimed he encountered a landed disc-shaped |
| object and came in contact with its occupants for the first time. |
| They were human in appearance and said they called themselves "the |
| Psycheans". He claimed to have been given a ride in their craft, |
| flying over Lake Ontario, and was then transported to other worlds. |
| At 9:20 p.m. in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada four teenage girls had a |
| ten minute close encounter with a UFO that caused them some lasting |
| physiological effects. (Sources: (1) John Colombo, UFOs over Canada: |
| Personal Accounts of Sightings and Close Encounters, p. 214; (2) |
| CUFOS case files, letter dated October 20, 1974). |
| |
| 1978 - A 12-year-old boy in Marcos Paz, Buenos Aires province, |
| Argentina photographed a UFO during the day with a Kodak instamatic |
| camera. The image in the newspaper shows a black body between some |
| iron bars. (Source: Jane Thomas, UFO Newsclipping Service, December |
| 1978, p. 15, citing Cronica, October 1978, p. 7). |
| |
| 1978 - At 7:40 p.m. a young man was walking near a field in Cosenza, |
| Calabria, Italy when the area was suddenly illuminated by a bright |
| light and he could no longer see his surroundings. Shortly later, he |
| saw an oval-shaped object resting on the ground on top of a nearby |
| hill. A human-like figure stood by the object. It wore two |
| antennae-like protrusions on its head. Frightened, he began to |
| run away but fell down while four humanoids approached him, making |
| huge, bizarre, bounding-like jumps. Next, he fainted, and when he |
| awoke he again saw that the four 5-foot-tall entities were closer, |
| wearing buttoned jackets, backpacks, and helmets with antennae. Their |
| hands appeared to be shaped like pincers. This frightened him and he |
| fainted again, and when he finally woke up sometime later everything |
| had vanished. Coincidentally, at around the same time (8:00 p.m.) a |
| bright light approached an Italian Air Force F-104 jet over Piacenza, |
| Emilia-Romagna, Italy. It disappeared after three minutes. (Sources: |
| Allan Hendry, International UFO Reporter, October 1979, p. 17; David |

| including Wendy and Michael Gannon, witnessed two red UFOs for nine |
| minutes while flying over Crewe, Cheshire, England at 8:00 p.m. The |
| objects had a hazy round outline, and an apparent size of 1.25 |
| degrees. The top one approached to within 450 meters distance, and  |
| hovered for three minutes. When accelerating a red glow was visible |
| from the rear. During the encounter they experienced radio |
| interference on their VHF mobile transceiver. (Sources: Richard F. |
| Haines, Project Delta: A Study of Multiple UFO, p. 191; UNICAT, case |
| # 401, citing S. R. Cleaver). |
| |
| 1980 - A female credit manager in Lima, Ohio briefly observed a vivid |

| CUFOS Newsletter, November 1980, p. 2). |
| |
| 1986 - A huge Ferris-wheel shaped object was seen spinning in the sky |

| computer database, case 14459; FSR, March 1990). |
| |
| 1989 - In Voronezh, Russia as many as 40 children, including some |
| young boys named Lukin, Levchenko, and Borise watched a large sphere, |
| five meters in diameter, land in a park at 8:30 p.m. Two tall |
| humanoids wearing silvery outfits and large black boots briefly |
| emerged. A smaller headless robot-like entity with small knobs on its |
| chest also accompanied them. Landing traces were reportedly found, |
| including a 60-foot wide circle in which there were four depressions |
| arranged in a diamond pattern. Each imprint was two inches deep and |
| six inches in diameter. Holes in the ground looked as though someone |
| had taken soil samples. The event was widely publicized around the |
| world, although the facts of the case were greatly distorted. |

| The UFO Report 1992, p. 130). |
| |
| 1990 - At 5:30 p.m. police and militia pursued a Saturn-shaped UFO |
| with shining portholes on its rim that hovered over an old airport |
| near Frunze, Kyrgistan. The UFO seemed to be rotating, and emitted a |
| coherent cone of yellow light. When it touched down to the ground it |
| set fire to a meadow, leaving behind four burned spots 135 feet |
| in diameter. (Source: Michael Hesemann, UFOs: The Secret History, p. |
| 291; Timothy Good, The UFO Report 1992, p. 68). |
| |
| 1994 - In the middle of the afternoon in Iasi, Romania a domed |

| they had nothing on radar. (Source: Curt Sutherly, UFO Mysteries: A |
| Reporter Seeks the Truth, p. 204). |
| |
| 1998 - Extension Forest Hills, Bayamon, Puerto Rico. On the night |
| that Hurricane Georges struck Puerto Rico Iris Rodriguez was outside |
| her home doing some washing when the winds began to pick up strength. |
| She went back inside her house at 8 p.m., and soon after she looked |
| out her window and noticed a bright sphere of light making triangular |
| movements in the sky. The sphere descended lower in the sky and |
| hovered above a neighbor's home. A few moments later a bright white, |
| oval-shaped hole appeared in the center of the red light. Then a |
| figure became visible inside the white light. The figure moved back |
| and forth, apparently looking out. The witness described the figure |
| as tall, thin, and man-like. It wore a tight-fitting gray colored |
| outfit and his skin appeared to be also gray or pale. As the wind |
| from the approaching hurricane grew stronger the witness lost |
| interest in the object and its occupant, and eventually lost sight of |
| it. On the same night Gerardo Mendez of Bayamon, Puerto Rico had gone |
| out to pick up some trash bins in order to secure them from the wind. |
| Suddenly from behind a nearby tree a strange creature jumped out. It |
| was described as short, hunched over, with a snout-like nose, thick |
| black hair, and round black eyes. It had thin but strong legs, large |
| pointy ears, and sharp fang-like teeth. The creature quickly hopped |
| by the witness, stopping briefly to stare at him. It then hopped into |
| the nearby woods and was gone from view. That same night others saw |
| speeding red balls of light over different parts of the island. |
| (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1998, cases |
| #3157 and #3324, citing Jorge Martin, Evidencia OVNI #18 & #19). |
| |
| 1999 - At 7:15 p.m. two people in Post Falls, Idaho witnessed a fiery |
| ball of light that was seen on the side of the Interstate 90 highway |

| object with two lights at both ends, larger than a normal aircraft, |
| and it made no sound as it moved west-northwest |
| overhead. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, |
| Seattle, September 2007 webpage, reported on September 22, 2007). |
| |
| 2007 - An undisclosed witness had an apparent abduction experience |
| with missing time beginning in the predawn morning hours in |
| Lexington, Kentucky. He reported to the National UFO Reporting Center |
| that while out walking the dog at 4:30 a.m. the small dog "who never |
| barks" began to growl and spasm uncontrollably. Then a white light |
| appeared and a sensation of warmth came over him, and the witness was |
| knocked to the ground. When he awoke it was early afternoon, he was |
| in a different location, his clothes were tattered, and he had |
| several sore spots on his body including his anus.  At first he |
| thought he must have been the victim of an automobile hit and run, |
| but to his dismay his arms and legs had various burn marks of unknown |
| cause, and he suspects the cause may have been UFO related. The |
| report form lists the shape of the UFO as a disc. (Source: Peter |
| Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, September 2007 |
| webpage, encounter was reported on September 23, 2007). |
| |
| 2007 - At 4:13 p.m. a father and son in Bastrop, Texas were playing |
| catch with a baseball when a silver, cigar-shaped object appeared out |
| of nowhere and hovered 1000 feet in the sky.It had two wings in front |
| and two wings in the back. It backed up, came forward, then went up |
| and down in a controlled pattern, and then quickly disappeared into |
| thin air. The sighting lasted 45 seconds. (Source: Peter Davenport, |
| National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, September 2001 |
| webpage, reported on November 21, 2007). |
| |
| 2007 - Three reports of triangular craft were made from Ohio between |
| 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. At 8:00 p.m. in West Chester, Ohio a |

| the treeline. At 8:25 p.m in Deer Park, Ohio an observer witnessed a |
| triangular object with hundreds of bright yellow lights near |
| Cincinnati. At 9:00 p.m. a "really big" craft was seen in Evendale, |
| Ohio that came close but remained silent the whole time. (Source: |
| Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle, September |
| 2001 webpage, reports uploaded October 8, 2007). |
| |
| 2007 - A couple were traveling north on Highway 371 near Bisti |
| badlands in San Juan County, New Mexico at 10:34 p.m. when they saw a |
| bright white cigar-shaped craft near the ground about 100 yards off |
| the east side of the road. They slowed their vehicle down and the |
| craft took off very quickly. It shot up very vertically and left |
| behind no traces. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting |
| Center, Seattle, September 2007 webpage, reported on September 22, |
