|
||
| May 12 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1909 - A cigar-shaped airship with a searchlight was seen flying |
|
||
| over Terrington Marsh, Norfolk, England at 9:45 p.m. It made a |
|
||
| rattling motor sound and flew off to the north. It was back again at |
|
||
| 10:30 p.m. (Source: Carl Grove, FSR, November-December 1970, |
|
||
| p. 10). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1948 - A private pilot flying over Westfield, Indiana reporting |
|
||
| seeing a small "Graf-Zeppelin" that zoomed away at jet speed. |
|
||
| (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted in official statistics, |
|
||
| case # 129; Dominique Weinstein, Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 10). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - A restricted military document shows that a UFO was sighted at |
|
||
| 2145 hours UST 40 miles west of Roswell, New Mexico. The object was |
|
||
| blue-green in color and its estimated altitude was 30,000-40,000 |
|
||
| feet. The object traveled three times over approximately the same |
|
||
| triangular course. The rate of speed could not be estimated |
|
||
| precisely, but was faster than a jet aircraft. The intensity of its |
|
||
| color brightness varied with the object's altitude (Source: Fran |
|
||
| Ridge, http://www.nicap.org/waves/1952fullrep.htm, citing AF Form |
|
||
| 112). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1954 - In 1954 a UFO shaped like a red dinner plate hung in the sky on edge |
|
||
| for 15 minutes over Dayton, Ohio at around 7 p.m. It tipped, changed |
|
||
| shaped, and then sped off. (Source: Leonard H. Stringfield, CRIFO |
|
||
| Newsletter, June 1954, p. 2). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1956 - At 3:30 a.m. in Lakewood, Los Angeles County, California |
|
||
| several witnesses had a close encounter with a silent, brilliant |
|
||
| saucer-shaped object with wires around its edge. It made four turns, |
|
||
| then shot away extremely fast. There were at least two independent |
|
||
| witnesses, and there were physiological effects reported. (Source: |
|
||
| Loren E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A |
|
||
| History. 1956: May-July, p. 26). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1962 - At 4:10 a.m. V. and G. Tomasini and H. Zenobi, while driving |
|
||
| on Route 35 at Kilometer 72 near La Pampa, La Pampa province, |
|
||
| Argentina saw a rectangular object shaped like an illuminated |
|
||
| railroad boxcar. As they came close to it, the object took off, |
|
||
| crossed the road at low altitude, rose with a flame, and separated |
|
||
| into two sections that flew away in different directions. It made a |
|
||
| humming sound and was seen on the ground for one minute. The grass on |
|
||
| the ground was burnt in a 60m radius circle at the landing site, |
|
||
| insects were carbonized, and the ground was "petrified." Sample |
|
||
| analysis was done by the Puerto Belgrano Naval Base. At 4:30 p.m. |
|
||
| another close encounter occurred northwest of Bahia Blanca, Buenos |
|
||
| Aires province, Argentina that involved several witnesses and |
|
||
| reportedly had lasting physiological effects. (Sources: La Nacion, |

|
||
| Landings, case # 533). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 11:10 p.m. a glowing yellow elliptical object with three |
|
||
| round spots on the underside passed below the clouds and was observed |
|
||
| through binoculars in Putney, England. (Source: Flying Saucer Review, |
|
||
| September-October 1967, p. 31). |

||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - Miss N. Parshall, a sixteen-year-old girl in California, |
|
||
| reported sighting a cigar-shaped object with a dull aluminum |
|
||
| finish"shoot around in sky" at around four o'clock in the afternoon. |
|
||
| It came to within 60 feet of the aircraft and then veered away. It |
|
||
| seemed ready to ram the plane from behind, but instead shot away very |
|
||
| fast. The sighting lasted an estimated 90 seconds. (Sources: NICAP |
|
||
| case files, report dated July 26, 1967; Condon University of Colorado |
|
||
| UFO Study, case N1378). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 8:00 p.m. a silver ellipse-shaped UFO rapidly approached |
|
||
| two people driving in a vehicle, five miles south of Neola, Utah. It |
|
||
| slowed its speed and descended level with the road. It then tilted |
|
||
| and flew over the crest of a nearby hill and was gone from sight. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - That same night a disc-shaped object swooped down to just 25 |
|
||
| feet above the ground in Galion, Ohio. It projected a circle of light |
|
||
| down around a paperboy with the last name Prim, who found himself |
|
||
| unable to move and with a gap in his memory of what happened next. |
|
||
| (Sources: Allan Hendry, The UFO Handbook, p. 46). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1969 - At 9:45 p.m. a brilliant circular object hovered at a low |
|
||
| altitude near some railroad tracks in Casino, New South Wales, |
|
||
| Australia. A married couple, Mr. and Mrs. Hinitt, watched beams of |
|
||
| light pulse upwards from the ground toward the UFO. Burnt patches of |
|
||
| vegetation were found at the sight in a heavy rainstorm. (Sources: |
|
||
| Ted Phillips, Physical Traces Associated with UFO Sightings, p. 64; |
|
||
| ACOS Bulletin, March 1977, p. 12 and June 1977, p. 20). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1969 - At 9:30 p.m. CDT a helmet-shaped disc estimated to be 15 |
|
||
| meters in diameter was seen widely over the Lake Zurich suburbs in |
|
||
| Illinois. It was reportedly seen over a two hour period. It made a |
|
||
| buzzing sound, and dogs reacted to its presence by barking. (Sources: |
|
||
| Chicago Tribune, May 25, 1969; FSR, September-October 1971, p. 27). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1971 - At 10:30 p.m. a 25 foot long ovoid UFO was seen near a house |
|
||
| in Elizabeth, New Jersey for two minutes. It made no sound. It made a |
|
||
| weaving motion through the sky as it flew away. (Source: Larry Hatch, |
|
||
| U computer database, case 9276). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1973 - A UFO gyrated in the sky over the harbor of Lourenco Marques, |
|
||
| Mozambique for more than an hour in the pre-dawn hours. (Source: Rand |
|
||
| (South Africa) Daily Mail, May 15, 1973). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1973 - At 9:20 p.m. a man driving west on Route 76, near Kent, Ohio |
|
||
| observed a group of flashing lights overhead almost directly above |
|
||
| his car. They moved with him until he stopped out of curiosity, and |
|
||
| so did the lights. Looking up through the windshield he could see a |
|
||
| football shaped object that flashed from red to blue to white in a |
|
||
| repeating cycle. He then saw a human figure materialize 10 feet below |
|
||
| the object. The figure was clad all in silver, and descended rapidly |
|
||
| to the roadway directly in front of the car. When it reached the |
|
||
| pavement the figure stood looking to the right, then to look directly |
|
||
| at the witness. After a half a minute the figure ascended rapidly, |
|
||
| "like a helium balloon," towards the object. It vanished before |
|
||
| reaching it. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| The figure was entirely silver in color and seemed to lack hair and |
|
||
| ears. A narrow mouth with a small pointed chin were also observed. He |
|
||
| was uncertain whether the silvery body was a close fitting garment or |
|
||
| the actual skin color, because he saw what appeared to be the faint |
|
||
| outline of a vein running down the inside of one of the arms. The |
|
||
| feet were clad with boots or shoes, with a heavy, distinct line |
|
||
| between the sole and the boot itself. The height of the figure was |
|
||
| not much more than 2.5 feet. When it descended it was approximately |
|
||
| ten feet in front of the car. The UFO shot up in a rapid vertical |
|
||
| ascent, rocking the car "as if a semi was passing." (Source: David F. |
|
||
| Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case |
|
||
| 1973-010, citing Larry Moyers and Marc Candusso). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1974 - A UFO covered with over 30 orange and white lights that were |
|
||
| each as bright as a welder's torch flew over Maxton, North Carolina. |
|
||
| It hovered over a mobile home park shortly after midnight. It was |
|
||
| pursued by two men, a police officer and a farmer, in their cars. The |
|
||
| UFO made a remote landing but no traces were found on the ground. |
|
||
| (Source: George D. Fawcett, FSR, January 1975, p. 31) |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1975 - At 4:10 p.m. a solid looking flying object, trailing exhaust, |
|
||
| flew northeast through the sky over Howrah, Tasmania. The UFO changed |
|
||
| shape and then made a ninety-degree turn. It then executed a 180 |
|
||
| degree turn, and then swooped down and away. A movie film was made of |
|
||
| the UFO. (Source: Richard Hall, Skylook, December 1975, p. 15). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1975 - That same night at 11:30 p.m. a green light was seen hovering |
|
||
| over an area two miles east of Peesane, Saskatchewan for 12 minutes. |
|
||
| It then flew away to the east. A perfect circle was found in the |
|
||
| grass at the site, two days later. (Source: Ted R. Phillips, Skylook, |
|
||
| December 1975, p. 16). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1979 - At 1:30 p.m. three observers in Atwater, Los Angeles County, |
|
||
| California watched a 3' x 7' disc hovering over power line poles. It |
|
||
| made a humming sound that seemed to attract birds that followed it as |
|
||
| it flew away. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # |
|
||
| 13697, citing UFO Newsclipping Service, issue 119). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1980 - A brilliant blue disc hovered at a low altitude for ten |
|
||
| minutes over Bulawayo, Zimbabwe at six p.m. It shot straight up, |
|
||
| stopped, then shot up again and was gone. (Source: Cynthia Hind, UFO |
|
||
| Afri News, July 1990). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1981 - A man and a woman, a truck driver and a cashier, were driving |
|
||
| near Clatskanie, Oregon at around five o'clock in the morning. A |
|
||
| large delta-shaped UFO surrounded by a turbulent fog or mist "like |
|
||
| smoke from a chimney" followed their truck for 15 miles. It had a |
|
||
| white light and two orange lights. As it directed a beam of light at |
|
||
| their vehicle the truck lost power, and they smelled an odor like |
|
||
| antifreeze. (Source: MUFON UFO Journal, January 1982, p. 15). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1982 - A large, disc-shaped UFO was seen by the roadside in Turis, |
|
||
| Spain. It perimeter was revolving and it appeared to be searching the |
|
||
| area with beams of light. It rose up and flew away. (Source: Larry |
|
||
| Hatch, U computer database, case 13877, citing APRO Bulletin). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1989 - A huge disc-shaped UFO was seen in Hubei Province, China. It |
|
||
| illuminated the surrounding landscape a red color, and hung silently |
|
||
| low in the sky for 20 minutes. It then rose to an estimated 100 |
|
||
| meters and shot off. (Source: Timothy Good, The UFO Report 1991, p. |
|
||

||
| 1991 - Two students in Kuala Tarengganu, Malaysia reported seeing |
|
||
| several tiny humanoid figures wearing red clothing standing near a |
|
||
| drain in a school compound in the middle of the afternoon. Teachers |
|
||

|
||
| six-inch tall beings were seen again in the same area. (Sources: |

||
| 1991 - Three elongated silver UFOs appeared in the daylight sky |
|
||
| during a UFO conference being held in Huejutla, Mexico. At 7:00 p.m. |
|
||
| a fiery ball of light levitated a man off the ground twice north of |
|
||
| Camp Redondo, Brazil in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. He felt |
|
||
| heat and cold and suffered an eye injury. (Sources: Lucius Farish, |
|

|
||
| 1992 - A boy in Connersville, Indiana reported being paralyzed in his |
|
||
| bed in the early morning hours by a strange looking, elderly humanoid |
|
||
| visitor. The boy had apparently reported UFO abduction experiences on |
|
||
| several occasions. (Sources: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
|
||
| Database 1992, case 1970; Francis Ridge, UFO Intelligence Newsletter, |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1993 - Several witnesses from San Marcos, Tula, Mexico including |
|
||
| Maria de Lourdes Uribe, age 34, heard bizarre noises and saw |
|
||
| mysterious lights coming from a nearby field at around one o'clock in |
|
||
| the morning. A local youth approached the field and saw a huge |
|
||
| glowing object hovering low over the ground. Five humanoid figures |
|
||
| descended from the object and stood around it as if standing guard. |
|
||
| They soon went back inside. Large circular ground traces and what |
|
||
| appeared to be dug out trenches were found at the site. A dog |
|
||
| belonging to one of the witnesses reportedly went missing soon after |
|
||
| the incident. Several days before this incident a huge dark object |
|
||
| that nearly covered the moon's disc was seen hovering over the area, |
|
||
| and two days before an engineer saw a huge object suspended just |
|
||
| above a roadway near the town of Tepeji, Mexico. (Source: Albert S. |

||
| |
|
||
| 2001 - At 7:30 p.m. a long, silver, shiny cylindrical object without |
|
||
| wings was sighted at 45 degrees elevation in Cleveland, Ohio. It was |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2002 - At 9:30 p.m. a large, soundless, glowing orange dumbbell |

|
||
| in Sequin, Texas when they spotted a huge, disc-shaped craft coming |
|
||
| down from the sky. The woman became agitated and began yelling that |
|
||
| there was a loud ringing in her head and she believeed she could hear |
|
||
| voices trying to talk to her. The dog also became disturbed and ran |
|
||
| off. Two more discs appeared in the sky, and the man began to cry. |
|
||
| He later described the UFOs as charcoal gray in color, and ringed |
|
||
| with black lights. All three of the craft appeared to have strange |
|
||
| writing or symbols on their hulls, which the witnesses thought |
|
||
| resembled ancient writing. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid |
|
||
| Contact Database, citing National UFO Reporting Center, May 2004 |

|
||
| |
|
||

|
||
| close and terrifying encounter, according to the witness. (Source: |
