| |
|
||
| May 13 |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1909 - There were several independent witnesses of a brightly |
|
||
| illuminated, 80 to 100 foot long, dark airship, flying over King's |
|
||
| Lynn, Norfolk, England at 9:45 p.m. Two men were visible in some sort |
|
||
| of carriage underneath the object. The object travelled fast, made a |
|
||
| whirring sound, and had a searchlight that lit up the road below it. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1949 - In 1949 on this day at 11:05 a.m. a U.S. Air Force Airman Smith, |
|
||
| driving along Highway 20 west of Boise, Idaho spotted first one disc, |
|
||
| then five more silver discs flying in a V formation. The objects |
|
||
| spiralled down, then shot out and away to the southwest at an |
|
||
| estimated 700 kilometers per hour. (Source: Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A |
|
||
| History. Volume 2: 1949, p. 85). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - On this morning a cigar-shaped object flew back and forth in |
|
||
| the sky several times over the town of Alcobaca, Portugal before |
|
||
| "blowing up." Over the town of Santarem, Portugal a dazzingly |
|
||
| brilliant sphere that left a vapor trail was observed for several |
|
||
| minutes. Later that evening at 7:20 p.m. two orange balls of light |
|
||
| were sighted over the shoreline of Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. One of the |
|
||
| object hovered while the second object darted out and back. (Sources: |

|
||
| Civilian Saucer Intelligence, Los Angeles). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - At 3:15 a.m PST an F9F pilot taking off from El Centro Naval |
|
||
| Air Station, California saw what appeared to be a shooting star |
|
||
| diving at an angle of 60 degrees. At around the same time the El |
|
||
| Centro's Sheriff's Office received reports of five "flying saucers" |
|
||
| as large as B-36's with a light underneath. They disappeared to the |
|
||
| southwest at terrific speed. All together there were four separate |
|
||
| reports of UFOs in the El Centro area on this date. (Source: Project |
|
||
| Blue Book Report #7). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1952 - At 10:33 p.m. EST in Greenville, South Carolina James |
|
||
| Richardson and three other amateur astronomers set up telescopes in a |
|
||
| dark area of Furman University, when they saw a box or diamond |
|
||
| formation of four oval dull glowing, reddish object nearly overhead. |
|
||
| They were the apparent size of a half dollar at arms length, |
|
||
| one-quarter turned and wobbling in flight. They disappeared after 3 |
|
||
| seconds after moving through 12 degrees of arc. (Sources: Project |

|
||
| 705). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1954 - At 11:30 p.m. Navy Commander H. R. Penrose was driving |
|
||
| homeward from Derby to Burton in Derbyshire, England when a bright |
|
||
| light appeared ahead of his car, heading towards him. When it reached |
|
||
| him he experienced a crash and was thrown forward against the |
|
||
| windshield. The car then seemed to be lifted from the ground, and he |
|
||
| was moved through the air while the bright light stayed above him. |
|
||
| The car came to rest atop some metal railings, and he was lifted from |
|
||
| it by a man in a one piece uniform, who effortlessly carried him |
|
||
| through an entrance on the underside of a large round object that was |
|
||
| hovering overhead, giving out a bright light. He was taken inside to |
|
||
| a room, which had some controls that were being operated by men and |
|
||
| women with short hair in coveralls. They questioned him |
|
||
| telepathically about his naval experiences and his work with radar. |
|
||
| Then a woman injected some green fluid into his arm, after which he |
|
||
| had no more conscious memories of the experience. He was found, |
|
||
| suffering from concussion, in his car atop some iron railings it had |
|
||
| knocked down, and was taken to hospital. After his recovery he |
|
||
| revisited the spot and succeeded in finding a railway signalman who |
|
||
| said he had seen a car, with an extremely bright light above it, go |
|
||
| past his signal box. Hypnotic regression was planned at the time of |
|
||
| the report in 1978. (Sources: Margaret & Geoffrey Westwood, FSR, |
|
||
| January 1978, p. 23; David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue |
|
||
| of Humanoid Reports, case 1954-11, citing Westwood). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - At 7:00 p.m. a domed disc was seen over the city of Colon, |
|
||
| Uruguay. The circular bottom of the object rotated clockwise. The |
|
||
| object itself was self-luminous, and the dome of the craft flashed. |
|
||
| The UFO flew off to the west. (Sources: Roberto Enrique Banchs; Loren |
|
||
| E. Gross, The Fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse: UFOs: A History. |

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1959 - Military witnesses at Offutt AFB, Nebraska, a civilian ATC, |
|
||
| and all onboard a Braniff airliner witnessed a fireball fly across |
|
||
| the sky toward the SW for 15 seconds. It was sighted on a clear night |
|
||
| at 9:21 p.m. and was estimated to be traveling at the same speed as |
|
||
| the plane. (Source: APRO Bulletin, July 1959). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - There were over 20 UFO sightings including two close |
|
||
| encounters in Brazil recorded for this evening in 1960 between 6:00 |
|
||
| p.m. and 8:00 p.m. by Dr. Olavo T. Fontes for the Aerial Phenomena |
|
||
| Research Organization. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - Brazil: At shortly before 18:30 a huge cigar-shaped object came from the |
|
||
| west at high speed and passed over Campos Sales, Brazil. It two ends |
|
||
| were opaque and smoky, but it had a bright light at the center. It |
|
||
| was seen by many residents. (Source: Dr. Olavo T. Fontes for the Aerial Phenomena |
|
||
| Research Organization, between 6-8pm) |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - At 18:30 off the coast at Paracuru, Brazil at the location marked |
|
||
| as (2) on the map, three fisherman were frightened when a luminous |
|
||
| disc hovered 300 feet over their fishing boat in a clear sky for |
|
||
| three minutes. It emitted a strong blue glow but made no sound. (Source: Dr. Olavo T. Fontes for the Aerial Phenomena |
|
||
| Research Organization, between 6-8pm) |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - At the same time a huge round gray object followed a donkey herd |
|
||
| between the towns of Taboleiro and Nazare, Brazil at the location |
|
||
| marked as (3). The UFO had a light on its top, and flew low and |
|
||
| silently. It rose vertically as it flew off. (Source: Dr. Olavo T. Fontes for the Aerial Phenomena |
|
||
| Research Organization, between 6-8pm) |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - A 60-foot wide oval-shaped disc, almost circular, with a strong |
|
||
| bluish light on top, flew noiseless and then hovered in a tilted |
|
||
| position over Paracuru, Ceara State, Brazil (4) at 19:00. (Source: Dr. Olavo T. Fontes for the Aerial Phenomena |
|
||
| Research Organization, between 6-8pm) |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - At 19:45 p.m. a military jet tried to intercept at the location |
|
||
| marked as (5) over Fortaleza, Brazil. The UFO made an evasive |
|
||
| maneuver, and was gone in a few seconds at supersonic speeds. |

|
||
| Hatch, U computer database, citing FSR, May 1961; Correio Ceara, May |
|
||
| 16, 1960; O Globo, May 25, 1960). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1960 - At 4:00 a.m. the next day (May 14, 1960) Raimondo dos Santos |
|
||
| saw two craft land on a hill near a farm called Capin Acu, near the |
|
||
| ocean in Paracuru, Ceara State, Brazil. He went near them and saw |
|
||
| several small beings, pale-looking, making friendly gestures. He ran |
|
||
| away. The creatures wore blue uniforms and white helmets. The |
|
||
| previous day at 7:00 p.m., over 100 witnesses observed a dark-gray, |
|
||
| circular craft, 20 meters in diameter with a powerful light, |
|
||
| maneuvering and hovering in the sky. (Sources: Jacques Vallee, |
|
||
| Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # 505, citing |
|
||
| Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue 58). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1962 - Two years later it was Argentina's turn to be inundated with |
|
||
| UFO reports. In the early morning hours between 4:00 a.m. and dawn |
|
||
| there were 11 sightings including seven close encounters from six |
|
||
| provinces in Argentina: Buenos Aires, La Rioja, Neuquen, La Pampa, |
|
||
| Cordoba, and Mendoza. In Mercedes, located in Buenos Aires province, |
|
||
| Argentina an Air Force man named Giashischa and his family |
|
||
| encountered a mist at 4:15 a.m. while driving in their car. In a |
|
||
| field they saw a 20-meter wide luminous mass spinning near the |
|
||
| ground. It stood approximately 3 meters tall. |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1962 - In Rio Cuarto, Cordoba, Argentina a flight of 20 multi-colored |
|
||
| UFOs was sighted by many at 4:45 a.m. One object--a fiery ball of |
|
||
| light 30 meters in diameter--came down to within 300 meters of a car |
|
||
| full of witnesses. From one side of the object four small red orbs |
|
||
| flew out, lined up behind the larger ball, then flew away in |
|
||
| formation. (Sources: (1) Oscar A. Uriondo, FSR Case Histories, June |
|
||
| 1973, p. 10; (2) Gordon W. Creighton, FSR, July 1964, p. 10). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1964 - At 10:15 p.m. a woman in Rio Vista, Solano County, California |
|
||
| saw two disc-shaped objects glowing in the sky. One of them landed in |
|
||
| a field. It was round and luminous. Also, there were other reports of |
|
||
| cigar-shaped objects in the area. (Sources: NICAP UFO Investigator, |
|
||
| July-August 1964, p. 6; Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A |
|
||
| Century of Landings, case # 604; Frank Edwards, Flying |
|
||
| Saucers--Serious Business, p. 32). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 5:45 a.m. a close encounter occurred in Lavister, near |
|
||
| Wrexham, Wales. A 15-meter diameter metallic disc glowed blue. It |
|
||
| shot up, stopped, and then darkened. It glowed again on exit. The |
|
||
| witness, Mr. Williams, viewed the object for 5 minutes. (Source: APRO |
|
||
| Bulletin, March-April 1969, p. 8). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At the Colorado Springs, Colorado airport an unidentified |
|
||
| flying object was picked up on radar at 4:40 a.m. MDT. During this |
|
||
| time a Braniff flight was coming in for a landing, and the track of |
|
||
| the object behaved like a ghost echo, perhaps a ground return being |
|
||
| reflected off the Braniff aircraft. The radar blip appeared at about |
|
||
| twice the range of the Braniff blip. When Braniff touched down, |
|
||
| however, the situation changed radically. The UFO pulled to the east |
|
||
| (right) and passed over the airport at an indicated height of 200 |
|
||
| feet. The object passed within 1.5 miles of the control tower, but |
|
||
| was not visible even through binoculars by personnel in the control |
|
||
| tower. This case was written up in the Condon report, and it was |
|
||
| stated there: This must remain as one of the most puzzling radar |
|
||
| cases on record, and no conclusion is possible at this time. It seems |
|
||
| inconceivable that an anomalous propagation echo would behave in the |
|
||
| manner described, particularly with respect to the reported altitude |
|
||
| changes, even if AP had been likely at the time. In view of the |
|
||
| meteorological situation, it would seem that AP was rather unlikely. |

|
||
| Unidentified Flying Objects, pp. 170, 310). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1967 - At 8:00 p.m. CDT a University of South Dakota faculty member |
|
||
| in Vermillion, South Dakota and five others saw a lens-shaped object |
|
||
| (disc) that passed under the clouds, turned over, and changed |
|
||
| directions. It first moved north to south, then northeast to |
|
||
| southwest. (Sources: NICAP files, witness report dated July 18, 1967; |
|
||
| Richard Hall, The UFO Evidence, Volume II. A Thirty-Year Report, p. |
|
||
| 339). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1972 - In Canterbury, New Hampshire at 9:50 p.m. a six-sided object |
|
||
| with four legs with landing pads, descended from 150 feet altitude |
|
||
| with a falling leaf motion, passed over witnesses, and landed |
|
||
| remotely. It had a light beam and made a jet-like noise or buzzing |
|
||
| sound. As an animal reaction, a cat owned by one of the witnesses ran |
|
||
| away. (Sources: Raymond E. Fowler, UFOs: Interplanetary Visitors, p. |

||
| |
|
||
| 1975 - Nautical UFO. At 5:20 a.m. a bright red sphere descended into |
|
||
| a lake in Mosciano Sant' Angelo, Abruzzi, Italy. It moved underwater, |
|
||
| then emerged. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # |
|
||
| 11258, citing ITACAT). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1976 - On this day several observers in USAF F-4 Phantom jets |
|
||
| reported seeing two silver objects pacing a KC-135 tanker flying over |
|
||
| William AFB, Candler, California. (Sources: Dominique Weinstein, |
|
||
| Aircraft UFO Encounters, p. 40; Rufus Drake, Saga UFO Report, July |
|
||
| 1977, p. 37). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1978 - At 3:32 a.m. police office Manuel Amparano was on the |
|
||
| outskirts of Kerman, California when he saw a reddish glow ahead. He |
|
||
| drove up to investigate. Getting closer, he observed an oval-shaped |
|
||
| object, smaller than the apparent size of the full Moon, handing in |
|
||
| the sky. It was a very bright crimson red. Suddenly, a blue beam was |
|
||
| directed toward him. The object then receded and was gone. Amparano |
|
||
| felt a tingling sensation in his body as he drove to the police |
|
||
| station. However, six people at the station noted that he looked |
|
||
| sunburned "as red as a lobster." His skin stayed that way for four |
|
||
| hours before returning to normal. His skin was reddened even through |
|
||
| his uniform. Althought the redness went away rapidly, there were |
|
||
| areas where the skin was actually burned, on his arms, face, and |
|
||
| neck. These burns were visible for two days, and the day following |
|
||
| his skin blistered on his face and in places on his arms. He had the |
|
||
| discomfort for a week. Doctors told him he could have been exposed to |
|
||
| microwave radiation. (Sources: Allan Hendry, International UFO |
|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 1981 - In Grays, South Carolina several independent observers |
|
||
| reported seeing a disc-shaped object drop down from the sky to |
|
||
| tree-top level around 9 p.m. It was silent with red glowing lights; |
|
||
| it hovered briefly, spinning, and then went away. (Source: UFO |
|
||
| Newsclipping Service, July 1981, p. 2; citing Hampton (SC) Guardian, |
|
||
| May 20, 1981). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1988 - At 4:40 a.m. a man photographed a flying saucer and jets south |
|
||
| of Hormigueros, Puerto Rico. He then experienced three hours of |
|
||
| missing time. When he recovers consciousness, he is south of |
|
||
| Betances. During hypnotic regression he recalled humanoid beings. |
|
||
| (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 14698, citing |
|
||
| Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue 311). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1988 - At 1:30 p.m. a silent metallic disc wobbled over the road near |
|
||
| two witnesses in Enkoping, Sweden. It rose up vertically until it was |
|
||
| gone from view. (Sources: Andre Liljegren, AFU Sweden, issue 34; |
|
||
| Larry Hatch, U computer database, case # 14699). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1988 - On this night painter Maria Adilia Germana Hohagen reported |
|
||
| seeing numerous "extraterrestrial" craft flying over her area of Sao |
|
||
| Paulo, Brazil. She heard a voice in her head tell her to return to |
|
||
| her home. She did, and from the balcony observed an object with |
|
||
| multicolored lights that emitted several metallic sphere. During a |
|
||
| hypnotic regression session, she remembered being abducted and |
|
||
| medically examined by several human looking, two-meter tall |
|
||
| humanoids. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, 1988 Humanoid Sighting Reports |
|
||
| database, citing Pablo Villarrubia & Mario Rangel). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1989 - On this night in Kodal, Norway a strong light swooped up to a |
|
||
| biker twice; it vanished as a car approaches. The biker experienced |
|
||
| 20 minutes of missing time. There were separate observers to the |
|
||
| close encounter. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, citing |
|
||
| Inforespace, issue 83). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1993 - During a restless, sleepless night in Kadima, Israel Danny |
|
||
| Rotem felt compelled to get in his car and drive. At around two a.m. |
|
||
| he drove to the nearby forest and saw a large egg-shaped object on |
|
||
| the ground. He left his car and then a tiny being, perhaps a meter |
|
||
| and a half tall, appeared. The being told Danny, "We were waiting for |
|
||
| you." The humanoid floated in front of him as he walked toward the |
|
||
| craft. He does not remember how he got inside, but realized that the |
|
||
| object's inside dimensions seemed larger, by far, that they could be |
|
||
| judging from its outside dimensions. In the middle of the room was a |
|
||
| pillar with an enormous pedestal. There were 13 aliens in the room. |
|
||
| Two of them led Danny to a side chamber where he was put on a very |
|
||
| comfortable sofa. He was told, telepathically, not to worry, "that he |
|
||
| was on a mission; you'll know what it is in time." They then made an |
|
||
| incision on his left wrist. His next memory was of being in his car |
|
||
| again traveling home. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact |
|
||
| Database 1993, citing Leading Edge: UFOs in Israel, Past & Present). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 1998 - A day after several witnesses reported seeing a |
|
||
| triangular-shaped craft hovering over the Gulf of Mexico, just |
|
||
| offshore, south of Fort Walton Beach, Florida the same witnesses |
|
||
| reported seeing men in frogmen suits in the water, in the same area |
|
||
| where the lights from the object had been shining down. There was |
|
||
| also unusual military aircraft activity in the area. (Source: Albert |
|
||
| S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1998, case 3805, citing CAUS). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2003 - At 10:00 p.m. Mrs. Lenura Azizova in Simferopol', Crimea, |
|
||
| Ukraine saw a cigar-shaped object hovering north of the city. It had |
|
||
| a bright, yellowish light in front that outlined the cylindrical |
|
||
| shape of the craft. When it switched off the light, it was gone in |
|
||
| the darkness. Its length was estimated to be 50-60 meters. |
|
||

|
||

|
||
| |
|
||
| 2003 - At noon in Anaheim, California cars suddenly stopped because |
|
||
| of EM ignition interference. The main witness was driving home from |
|
||
| his job when his new car suddenly stopped, as did the cars following |
|
||
| him. The witness said, "Some of the people behind me got out of their |
|
||
| cars and asked me if I knew what was going on. I said, 'I have no |
|
||
| idea. This car is new, so I'm kind of mad." Then he heard a humming |
|
||
| sound, so he looked around and he saw two cylinder shapes just |
|
||
| sitting there above them. They then landed, then took off into the |
|
||
| air, and vanished. When gone, his car and the other cars could be |
|
||
| restarted. (Source: George A. Filer & David E. Twichell, Filer's |
|
||
| Files: Worldwide Reports of UFO Sightings, p. 118, citing NUFORC). |
|
||
| |
|
||
| 2003 - At 8:15 p.m. a witness was sitting in his window seat in |
|
||
| Georgetown, Ontario, Canada when she saw a light outside that caught |
|
||
| her attention. "As I looked up, I saw a beautiful display of rotating |
|
||
| lights that slowly hovered, moving no more than 5 km/hour," she said. |
|
||
| It was no more than 100 feet from her roof top. She rushed outside to |
|
||
| gave at the UFO, almost paralyzed with fear. She got a very good look |
|
||
| at the craft. It was not as big as she thought, and it was very |
|
||
| quiet. The outer ends were rotating with a wondrous arrangement of |
