| Encounters with Aliens on this Day |
|

|
||
| February 8 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1672 - A dark "flying ship" hovered in place over the ocean near |
|
||
| Cherbourg, France during a wind. It had no sails, and eventually flew |
|
||
| off to the south after 33 minutes. (Source: Lumieres dans la Nuit, |
|
||
| issue # 186). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1951 - A four engine Super-Constellation R5D Navy transport, flying |
|
||
| at a speed of 200 knots at 10,000 feet between Iceland and |
|
||
| Newfoundland, saw a UFO ascend from the surface of the Atlantic Ocean |
|
||
| in the pre-dawn hours. They watched it on the surface for 8-10 |
|
||
| minutes while approaching it, and it was so bright that they thought |
|
||
| at first that perhaps the auto-pilot had gone off course and it was |
|
||
| the lights from a city. It moved at 1,500 mph with a white flow |
|
||
| and with a reddish-purple fiery ring around the rim. It shot up and |
|
||
| at the aircraft, and due to the object's high speed, its size and |
|
||
| direction of travel it looked like it would collide. The pilot |
|
||
| quickly disengaged the auto-pilot and stood by to push the nose of |
|
||
| the plane over in hopes that they could pass underneath. Everyone |
|
||
| onboard began ducking, including the relief crew. "It stopped its |
|
||
| movement toward us and began moving along with us about 45 degrees |
|
||
| off the bow to the right, about 100 feet or so below us and about 200 |
|
||
| to 300 feet in front of us. It was not in a level position; it was |
|
||
| tilted about 25 degrees. It stayed in this position for a minute or |
|
||
| so. It appeared to be from 200 to 300 feet in diameter, translucent |
|
||
| or metallic, shaped like a saucer." When it moved away it made no |
|
||
| turns, and was out of sight in only a few seconds.Gander radar did |
|
||
| track the object in excess of 1,800 mph. (Sources: NICAP UFO |

||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - In Newbury, Massachusetts at two o'clock in the afternoon two |
|
||
| silvery cigar shaped objects moved in a straight line, then |
|
||
| separately shot straight up vertically and were gone. (Source: NICAP |
|
||
| investigation files, report dated February 14, 1967). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1969 - Waking from sleep at 1:30 a.m. witness Douglas Fay looked out |
|
||
| his window in Glen Rock, New Jersey and saw a bright red, star-like |
|
||
| object flying toward the north in jerky, stop and start movements. |
|
||
| Before it disappeared from view three smaller red dots were released |
|
||
| from the larger object and flew off in various directions. (Source: |
|
||
| NICAP investigation files, report dated February 8, 1969). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1974 - On this evening at Wadi Jawlan in Yemen east of Al-Makalla, |
|
||
| three Arab men saw three large white disc-shaped objects glide toward |
|
||
| ground and land in the nearby desert. When on the ground a bright |
|
||
| light and three beams of light were directed upward into the sky. The |
|
||
| objects stayed on the ground for several hours. Later at the landing |
|
||
| site investigators found three imprints, each 85 cm wide, arranged in |
|
||
| a triangle with sides 5.3 meters in length. The vegetation was also |
|
||
| burnt. On the same evening at 7:30 p.m. a glowing domed disc was |
|
||
| sighted in Douvrin, France just 15 meters above the ground. It |
|
||
| vanished, then reappeared. (Sources: (1) Gordon Creighton, FSR, |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1976 - At 10:30 p.m. a silvery white disc-shaped object flew over |
|
||
| Kissimmee, Florida at less than 300 meters altitude, making a |
|
||
| whistling noise. (Source: NICAP UFO Investigator, May 1976). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1979 - At six o'clock in the evening an oval-shaped flying object |
|
||
| approached a car driving between Broad Hinton and Clyffe Pypard in |
|
||
| Wiltshire, England. It came to within 150 to 300 feet at its closest |
|
||
| approach. It had a cluster of very bright strobe-like lights that lit |
|
||
| up ground. The UFO made a V-turn, then stopped over a water tower |
|
||
| before departing. It made no noise. (Source: UFO Newsclipping |
|
||
| Service, April 1979, p. 12, citing the Wiltshire Gazette, February |
|
||
| 15, 1979). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1982 - Starting at 3:11 a.m. a large, multicolored flying object |
|
||
| paced a commercial aircraft for 82 minutes. VASP flight #169 was |
|
||
| paced by the UFO from Pernambuco state near Petrolina to Rio de |
|
||
| Janeiro, Brazil. It was disc shaped and had flashing red, blue, |
|
||
| orange, yellow and white lights. The airline crews of two more planes |
|
||
| also witnessed the UFO. (Sources: Irene Granchi, International UFO |

||
| |
|
||
| 1982 - That evening in Bakersfield, Vermont a delta-shaped object |
|
||
| followed a car home, then flew overhead. The witness ran inside his |
|
||
| house to hide. The UFO made no sound. (Source: Larry Hatch, U |
|
||
| computer database, case 13830, citing Joe Nyman). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1985 - A 19-year-old man named Thomas was abducted in the early |
|
||
| morning hours in Pwllheli, Wales. He was seized by the arm and |
|
||
| floated into a 25-foot diameter domed, disc-shaped craft by beings |
|
||
| wearing gray uniforms and octagon-shaped helmets. They communicated |
|
||
| with him using telepathy and gave him a physical exam. He was also |
|
||
| taken on an off-world journey. He returned in a state of shock, with |
|
||
| a sunburn on his body. (Source: Richard H. Hall, The UFO Evidence, |
|
||

|
||
| 1986 - While driving on State Route 117 in Lima, Ohio at 7:00 p.m. a |
|
||
| young couple spotted a dark triangular UFO with three bright lights, |
|
||

|
||
| 50-60 feet long and made no sound. Their sighting lasted five |
|
||
| minutes. (Source: John P. Timmerman, International UFO Reporter, |

| 1988 - In Gulf Breeze, Florida at around eight o'clock in the |
|
||
| evening, Ed Walters and his wife witnessed a small bright orange ring |
|
||
| in the sky. Mr. Walters snapped a Polaroid photograph of it, then |
|
||
| experienced two hours of missing time. He claims he has no memory of |
|
||
| taking the photo. (Source: Edward Walters, UFOs are Real: Here's the |
|
||
| Proof, p. 20). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1989 - A man in Gulf Breeze, Florida was awakened by his dogs, and |
|
||
| saw a UFO descend making a sizzling sound and land in a vacant lot |
|
||
| only 80 feet away from his house. He awoke his wife and son. They saw |
|
||
| three small discs land. When the man shone a flashlight at one of the |
|
||
| objects it flashed back and then they all disappeared. (Sources: Ed |

|
||

|
||
| Chester County, South Carolina. As it flew over dogs in the |
|
||
| neighborhood were barking loudly. At 5:45 p.m. CST or about 20 |
|
||
| minutes later, a small reddish spherical object, that flashed red at |
|
||
| varying intensities and intervals, was sighted over Houston, Texas. |
|
||
