|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  January 15 |
| |
| 1957 - In the early morning hours of this day in Balfour, New |
| Zealand, William West and Wallace Liddell saw an object similar to a |
| shooting star come close to them. As it got closer it appeared to be |
| an oval-shaped craft, fluorescent, about 40 cm in diameter. It came |
| down toward the ground and nearly touched the grass but did not land. |
| They rushed towards it to capture it, but it jumped away and turned |
| into a bluish-white sphere with a dark red center. Each time they |
| tried to catch it the object jumped further away. It cleared a high |
| fence and slowly vanished. The Invercargill Weather Bureau had no |
| explanation. (Sources: Grey River Argus, January 15, 1957; Jacques |
| Vallee, Passport to Magonia, p. 254). |
| |
| 1965 - At 10:00 p.m. five miles northwest of Wilmot, New Hampshire |
| Mr. Knee saw a glowing light that made a humming sound. His car |
| radio, lights and engine died while the luminous object hovered |
| nearby; the electrical power returned when the UFO sped away. |
| (Source: Walter N. Webb case investigation files, case # 51). |
| |
| 1967 - At 6:30 a.m. local time a 69-year old woman in Ikuri, Finland |
| suddenly awoke to see through her bedroom window that a 1.2-1.4 meter |
| tall creature was in her yard, walking through the deep snow using |
| stiff mechanical steps. The being wore a blue-green tunic and baglike |
| trousers, and had some kind of helmet with four antennas. It also |
| wore some kind of mittens on its hands. The face could not be seen. |
| It walked past the swing in the yard and disappeared into thin air. |
| It left round footprints on the snow. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, |
| Humanoid Contact Database 1967, citing Mervi Virtanen). |
| |
| 1967 - At 3:00 a.m. EST, or about three and one-half hours later, a |
| red oval-shaped UFO that looked like an upside-down saucer with a |
| white glowing rim, approached and circled the witness's home in |
| Boxford, Massachusetts before flying away. (Source: Raymond E. |
| Fowler, UFOs: Interplanetary Visitors, p. 343). |
| |
| 1967 - After another three and one-half hours, at 7:30 p.m. local |
| time, attorney Ong Huck Hong and his son observed a domed disc in |
| Selat Utara, Malaysia. The object moved up and down, slowed its pace, |
| and appeared to be changing its shape. There were whirling bars of |
| light on the dome that resembled windows. The UFO flew off toward the |
| south. (Source: Ahmad Jamaludin, Summary of Unidentified Flying |
| Objects and related events in Malaysia, p. 25). |
| |
| 1967 - Wildwood, New Jersey. Two nights after the Christiansen family |
| heard strange metallic sounds over their house, Mr. & Mrs. |
| Christiansen returned home to find their children in a very |
| distraught state. They had heard the strange metallic sound again, |
| and then heard heavy footsteps crunching through the thick woods |
| outside. A 19-year old neighbor present at the time looked out the |
| window to see a tall humanoid figure hurrying away from the house. He |
| was wearing a long white cape. When the man reached a five-foot high |
| fence he leaped over it effortlessly disappeared into the woods. |
| (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1967, case 27, |
| citing John A. Keel, The Mothman Prophecies). |
| |
| 1969 - During the afternoon of this day Ludwig Pallmann felt a |
| burning sensation from a ring given to him by someone he presumed was |
| an extraterrestrial. The sensation was a signal for an upcoming |
| contact, so Mr. Pallmann took his motorboat to a local sandy beach on |
| Isla del Altar, El Salvador. There he noticed that several huge |
| concentric circles ruffled the normally placid waters of the lake. |
| Shortly after that he encountered a human looking being named Satu |
| Ra, who he had met on previous occasions. Satu Ra was sitting |
| motionless on a nearby rock. He wore dark green coveralls and had on |
| a broad instrument belt on which was a large device. Ra was |
| inexpressively sad. He told Pallmann that another extraterrestrial |
| that they both knew, named Xiti, had been killed. Supposedly a |
| disaster had befallen the expedition on another planet. Shortly after |
| this close encounter locals reported observing a silvery disc-shaped |
| UFO hovering over the capital city San Salvador. (Source: Albert S. |
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1969, case 32, citing Timothy |
| Good, Alien Base). |
| |
| 1969 - At 8:30 p.m. a man driving from Extremadura stopped his car in |
| Las Pajanosas, Sevilla province, Spain and got out to investigate a |
| light he saw nearby. When he got to within 200 meters of it he could |
| see an illuminated rectangle in which several figures were seen |
| walking in front of. A dog that had been watching the light with him |
| had its hair raised and was growling softly. Alarmed, the witness |
| left the scene. When he returned a few days later with a friend they |
| found three apparent landing marks at the site, six feet apart. |

| Humanoid Reports, case 1969-05, citing Felipe Laffitte; Albert S. |
| Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1969, case 33). |
| |
| 1971 - A 69-year-old woman awoke abruptly in Ikuri, Tampere, Finland |
| at 6:30 a.m., and watched out her window to see a 1.2 to 1.4 meter |
| (four-foot) tall being appear in the yard and walk in the deep snow |
| using stiff and mechanical steps. The creature wore a blue-green |
| tunic and baglike trousers, and had some sort of helmet with four |
| antennae. It also wore something like mittens on its hands. Its face |
| could not be seen. The creature walked past the swing in the yard and |
| disappeared into thin air. It left round footprints in the snow. |
| (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1971, citing |
| Mervi Virtanen, Finland). |
| |
| 1974 - Two students were walking along the beach in Mar Del Plata, |
| Argentina at midnight when they sighted a small white light moving |
| towards the coast from the sea. It divided into three lights as it |
| came closer. They walked to the nearest pier to catch a better look |
| of the lights and began walking down the pier when two more lights |
| became visible to their right. They could now see that the lights |
| were five humanoid beings that were walking gracefully in the water. |
| The seawater reached their chests. These beings were dressed in |
| diving suits and their heads were covered with helmets with a mask |
| and a tube going onto their backs. The beings walked out of the water |
| and onto the road, leaving the area. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, |
| Humanoid Contact Database 1974, case # 242, citing Fabio Picasso, |
| Strange Magazine, # 8). |
| |
| 1975 - Several reports were made of a green disc heading in an |
| eastward direction near the airport in Groton, Connecticut. Witnesses |
| included an American Airlines crew and two Air National Guard pilots |
| flying in the area. (Source: APRO Bulletin, September 1975, p. 5). |
| |
| 1986 - At around seven p.m. the witness was walking home on Wiktorska |
| Street in Mokotow, Poland when he saw a dull metallic bowl-shaped |
| flying object descend and land in a vacant field between two |
| buildings. Moments later a hatch slid open from the top of the object |
| and a woman dressed in black came out. The man felt compelled |
| mentally to go with the woman, who took him inside the UFO. it was |
| very bright inside the craft and he saw two men wearing dark |
| tight-fitting overalls with hoods. He was ordered to lie down on a |
| table, and at this point he lost consciousness. He later awoke |
| standing at the door outside of his house with no recollection of |
| what happened in between. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |
| Contact Database 1986, case # 952, citing UFO Newsclipping Service, |
| issue # 209). |
| |
| 1991 - In 1991 a 20-foot diameter circle was discovered in the ice on the |
| Charles River near Waltham, Massachusetts. (Source: Massachusetts |
| MUFON). |
| |
| 1998 - A 50-year-old grandmother and government employee was abducted |
| on this night from her home in Atlantic City, New Jersey. She was in |
| great terror and in fear of her life during the abduction. No other |
| details were provided. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
| Database 1998, case # 3130, citing George Filer, MUFON). |
