|  Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
| |
|  June 12 |
| |
| 1929 - Levis Brosseau, age 20, was riding home in Fermeneuve, Quebec |
| on horseback at 11:00 p.m. when he saw a dark object with a yellow |
| light landed on the ground. His horse became very nervous. The object |
| was estimated to be 15 meters in diameter and 5 meters high, and he |
| witnessed four or five dwarfish figures running back and forth within |
| 6 meters of the object. He heard their sharp, childlike voices. The |
| dark object then took off with a machine-like sound and rush of air. |
| (Source: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia, pg. 189). |
| |
| 1947 - A bright metallic ovoid object was seen from the highway in |
| Weiser, Idaho by a Mrs. Erickson and her daughter at 6:15 p.m. The |
| UFO zigzagged to the southwest. It and a second object were in view |
| for three minutes before vanishing. (Sources: Donald E. Keyhoe, |
| Flying Saucers Are Real, p. 24). |
| |
| 1952 - At 4:00 p.m. several disc-shaped UFOs followed an airliner |
| over Mill Valley in Marin County, California for five minutes. |
| (Source: Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 12). |
| |
| 1952 - At 7:30 p.m. A U.S. Army Major and a Lt. Colonel, using |
| binoculars, watched an orange ball with a tail fly with a low angular |
| velocity in Fort Smith, Arkansas. (Sources: Project Blue Book files |
| counted in official statistics, case #1269; Don Berliner, Project |
| Bluebook UFO Unknowns; Kevin D. Randle, Invasion Washington: UFOs |
| over the Capitol, p. 264). |
| |
| 1952 - At 11:26 a.m. at a U.S. Air Force radar facility in Marakesch, |
| Morocco Sgt. H. D. Adams, operating an SCR-584 radar set, tracked an |
| unidentified radar blip moving at 650 knots (750 mph) and at an |
| altitude greater than 60,000 feet. (Sources: Project Blue Book files |
| counted in official statistics, case #1270; Don Berliner, Project |
| Bluebook UFO Unknowns). |
| |
| 1957 - At 7:30 p.m. in Milano, Italy Mr. G. U. Donadio, a translator |
| for export-import firm, sighted a UFO as "big as a hen's egg" that |
| flew very fast, zigzagged, hovered and revolved, then shot straight |
| up and away after 17 minutes. (Source: Don Berliner, Project Bluebook |
| UFO Unknowns). |
| |
| 1958 - near Le Brusc, France - Three fishermen had gone to sea on the |
| Mediterranean Sea at night to set their nets. It was a very clear, |
| starry night, and the sea was calm. A big orange-colored ball of |
| light descended very quickly towards the sea, and soon it became a |
| great big globe lying on the surface of the water. "Just lightly |
| touching the waves it remained there for several minutes, but we had |
| the impression that it was revolving, like a wheel turning round and |
| round on the same place." It caused a strong air disturbance for they |
| could see the water being whipped up around it. The ball came rolling |
| toward the fishermen's boat, and they were terrified that it would |
| collide with them. It didn't in fact go over them but passed very |
| close by, making such big waves that they nearly capsized. They felt |
| a powerful blast of heat and a strong blast of air. As it went by it |
| made a faint humming noise. Comparing it to their boat, it seemed to |
| be about 4 meters in diameter. Moving along by leaps, |
| half-disappearing among the waves, it made a right-hand turn and |
| disappeared on the horizon. (Sources: FSR Case Histories, April 1973, |
| pp. 13-14; Lumieres dans la Nuit (Contact Lecteurs), Series 3, No. 5, |
| January 1971). |

| 1961 - A smoke ring was seen in the presence of a UFO at 6:30 p.m. in |
| Waynesville, Ohio. (Source: APRO Bulletin, July-August 1961, p. 1). |
| |
| 1964 - A domed disc-shaped UFO hovered near the main power station in |
| Hallam, Victoria, Australia at 5:55 p.m. It then flew away to the |
| northwest toward Melbourne. (Source: Michael Hervey, UFOs over the |
| Southern Hemisphere, p. 100). |
| |
| 1964 - Police Chief Richard Crawford of Elmore, Ohio spotted a |
| bright, motionless blinking object emitting multi-colored lights near |
| the intersection of Route 51 and Nissen Road at 10:15 p.m. Some kind |
| of halo surrounded it. After about 20 minutes a spotlight was aimed |
| at the object, and it went away. It was again seen at the local |
| school half an hour before midnight, at an altitude of about 1000 |
| feet, flying at a good speed to the northwest, toward the town of |
| Genoa. It made the sound of a bullet flying by one's ear. Crawford |
| radioed another policeman and asked him to meet him at a certain |
| point. The other officer arrived there first, and witnessed the |
| object giving off bursts of light once per second. It took off again |
| when Crawford arrived, changed course at high speed, and was lost to |
| sight in a few seconds. (Source: Jacques Vallee, Challenge to |
| Science: The UFO Enigma, pg. 37). |
| |
| 1974 - On this day a UFO with bouncing movements, or "a bobbing up |
| and down" hovered over tree tops near Grantham, North Carolina for 20 |
| minutes. The craft had windows and a row of lights estimated to be |
| about 15 feet long. It also made a whirring noise. (Sources: George |
| D. Fawcett, Flying Saucers, December 1974, p. 39; Frank Harrison, |
| Skylook, July 1974, p. 20). |
| |
| 1975 - A diamond shaped object landed on a gravel road in a |
| mountainous area of Big Chimney, West Virginia shortly before 10:00 |
| p.m. It was witnessed by four members of the Crichfield family. Four |
| landing gear imprints were found at the site. (Sources: Center for |
| UFO Studies case files, letter dated August 3, 1975; Larry Hatch, U |
| computer database, citing Alan Landsburg, In Search of |
| Extraterrestrials, p. 8) |
| |
| 1977 - In Bardney, England this afternoon a group of boarding school |
| boys, concealed on the opposite side of a hedge, saw a black "stick |
| man" with a round, featureless head, "jolting" along about 150 meters |
| away. (Source: David F. Webb and Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of |
| Humanoid Reports, case A1736). |
| |
| 1977 - A man would had just been laid off work was attending a |
| meeting of his colleagues in Crystal Lake, Illinois to discuss the |
| matter. During the course of the meeting he'd had half a dozen beers. |
| About 11 p.m. he left the hotel for some fresh air. Outside he |
| immediately saw approaching him three small figures emerging from an |
| alley adjacent to the hotel. His first thought was that they were |
| coming for him, but he noticed a fourth being lying directly in front |
| of him on the ground, only a few yards away. It was doubled up, with |
| its back toward him, as if injured. He also noticed a strange absence |
| of sound, in that he was unable to hear any traffic sounds coming |
| from the street. The beings were about 4 feet 10 inches tall, with |
| small, slender bodies and large baldheads. They were wearing glass |
| fish bowl-type helmets, with a metallic band attached from the |
| helmets to their uniforms. The uniforms were tight one-piece suits of |
| a dark green color, with a metallic luster. The only facial feature |
| he could see through the helmet were two large, round, luminous eyes. |
| They lifted the prone colleague and carried him off toward the alley. |
| Throughout the encounter he felt no fear--he had the feeling, in |
| fact, that they had somehow informed him they would not harm him. He |
| made a report to the police, and he told his friends but was laughed |
| at. (Source: Center for UFO Studies files, report by Douwe Goaga |
| dated February 8, 1978). |
| |
| 1979 - Pine Ridge, South Carolina. Members of a rock band practicing |
| in a barn stepped outside to watch an unusual form hovering low over |
| the containment building and smokestack of the Carolina Power & Light |
| nuclear power plant one half mile away to their northeast. An ovoid |
| shaped object, seen primarily by its lights in the clear dusk sky, |
| had two huge bright yellowish-white beams of light. After hovering |
| motionless for 2-5 minutes all the lights faded except a blue light. |
| The UFO moved off and was gone in "three blinks of the eye." After |
| about five minutes, a second sighting took place. It hovered to the |
| right of the nuclear power plant and directed a beam of light at it |
| while hovering for another 2-5 minutes. The second object flew off |
| toward the northwest. No one at the power plant reported seeing |
| anything unusual to the chief of security. (Source: International UFO |
| Reporter, July 1979, p. 21). |
| |
| 1981 - Robert Gomez, a vacuum truck driver, was headed west on |
| highway FR 665 toward Alice, Texas after finishing a job. His vehicle |
| had about 165 gallons of water in the tank and no pressure. At 2:10 |
| p.m. he saw a bright object in the sky that he first thought was an |
| airplane. It increased in brightness and stopped in midair. The |
| object was domed disc-shaped, brilliant white in color and with a |
| dark ring around the rim and another dark ring around its center. |
| Gomez felt the truck slowing down and tried to accelerate. The |
| truck's exhaust stacks were blowing smoke, but the truck had |
| apparently been lifted a foot off the ground. Although his AM radio |
| quit working, his CB radio was still working, so he reported what was |
| happening to his dispatcher. Shortly later the UFO disappeared into |
| the clouds. Smoke was discovered coming out of the water tank valve, |
| which now showed 55 pounds of pressure on the gauge. He opened the |
| valve to drain the remaining water, but only steam came out. |

| Journal, January 1982; Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II: |
| A Thirty-Year Report, p. 276). |
| |
| 1986 - Two persons observed three deep blue colored objects flying in |
| a triangular formation. When they over flew Lake Trasimeno they |
| descended vertically into the lake. (Source: Marco Bianchini, USOCAT |
| by IItalian Center for UFO Studies (CISU). http://www.cisu.org/). |
| |
| 1994 - A hexagon-shaped object circled by lights had four square |
| portholes on its bottom, was seen at 8:40 p.m. in St. Usuges, France. |
| It flew away toward the north. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue |
| no. 326). |
| |
| 1995 - In Wichita, Kansas a lone witness reported encountering |
| several strange humanoids to the National UFO Reporting Center in |
| Seattle, Washington. There was no UFO associated with the report. |
| (Sources: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1995, case |
| #2170, citing Francis Ridge, UFO Intelligence Newsletter, February |
| 1996; Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center). |
| |
| 1999 - In Alton Barnes, England a crop formation 700 feet in length, |
| with a design consisting of boxes, keys, and a Celtic cross was found |
| on this day. In the afternoon of this day in Goias, Brazil a UFO the |
| size of a football field landed in the city. Jet interceptor aircraft |
| were scrambled from Anapolis AFB in response to the reports, but did |
| not arrive in time. At 10:30 a.m. in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts a |
| silver, metallic object was seen hovering at approximately a mile to |
| a mile and a half altitude, from Route 20 eastbound. At noon a gray |
| object with a black dot in the center was seen moving very slowly |
| across the sky in Melbourne, Victoria. In Adelaide, South Australia |
| four men sitting outside saw a bright blue light appear from nowhere. |
| It was long and large, and moved level for 15 seconds toward the |
| east, with a flame visible from the tail section. It vanished from |
| view. (Sources: MUFON UFO Journal, July 1999, p. 15; UFO Magazine |
| (USA), September 1999, p. 19; Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting |
| Center, June 1999 web page; Australasian Ufologist, January 2001, p. |
| 36). |
| |
| 2004 - In Torrance, California at 3:03 p.m. a high altitude metallic |
| disc-shaped object was watched from seven minutes. It reflected |
| sunlight at times as it moved first west, then to the northwest. |
