Best viewed on a desktop/laptop, not a mobile device. On Windows, Firefox works best, followed by Edge, then Chrome.
I've split up the timeline into 4 parts, to reduce their sizes: distant past up to 1949, 1950-1959, 1960-1979, and 1980-present.
The majority of the events in this chronology are sighting related, however it's important to be aware that this is a timeline of UFO/UAP related events, not necessarily or exclusively UFO sightings. This is not exclusively a UFO sightings timeline or database.
Some sighting reports or events appear multiple times in this timeline because they appear in more than one data source. I view this as a useful feature.
Currently, the events are not sorted by time of day, only by date. Some sources have separate "time" fields, but most don't. This will be fixed once the event times are automatically extracted from the description fields.
A few events don't have firm dates, for example "Summer of 1947", or "Late July 1952". In these instances the compilation code uses fixed dates I selected for date sorting purposes. (See the code for the specific dates.)

Description: 2:30–3:00 a.m. Two young men in Furnace
Creek, California, are followed by a red ball of light the size of a
beach ball. They get scared and run ahead to their house, slamming and
locking the door behind them. The ball stops at the edge of their yard,
hovering and oscillating in size. After 4–5 minutes, the ball moves away
and creates a vortex, causing stones to rise and circle in the air. They
can hear the sound of the stones hitting together. Then the light blinks
out, and the rocks crash down onto the road.

Description: The CIA is testing a small drone aircraft
in the shape of a bird at Groom Lake, Nevada. Called Project Aquiline,
the agency wants to fly a reconnaissance UAV over key intelligence
targets, such as ICBM sites and nuclear test grounds in the Soviet Union
and China, without detection. At least one of the prototypes is flown
from Area 51 more than 20 times. The project is cancelled in 1971 before
deployment and has never been declassified.

David Copeland, a lawyer in Waco, TX) claims several intelligence
community sources give him information on a group running
counterintelligence operations for advanced aerospace (and possibly
UAP-related) projects: the Defense Industrial Security Command and a CIA
front company located in Switzerland Permindex. Torbitt claims DISC’s
offices are at 3990 East Broad Street, Columbus, OH and Redstone
Arsenal.
He claims DISC includes the security division of NASA and includes awareness among a tight group of key personnel including J. Edgar Hoover, Wernher Von Braun, William Sullivan, Clay Shaw, and former FBI employee Guy Bannister. It is alleged Permindex is aware of advanced UAP projects and protects them with surveillance and intimidation, and possibly, assassination.

Description: 5:00 a.m. Registered nurse Doreen Kendall
is looking out a window at the Cowichan District Hospital in Duncan,
British Columbia, and sees a bright, Saturn-shaped object about 50 feet
in diameter hovering one story above her, about 60 feet off the ground
and 40 feet away. It has a row of lights around its middle. She can see
two humanoid figures in dark, tight-fitting clothing and wearing
headgear in the upper portion. One stands at an instrument panel, with
the other behind it. The second being looks directly at Kendall, then
touches the first being, who moves a lever, apparently causing the craft
to tilt down and provide a view of its interior. Kendall calls for other
witnesses, who arrive in time to see the UFO leave.

Description: 4:45 p.m. Two skiers, lumberjack Aarno
Heinonen and farmer Esko Viljo, at Imjärvi, Finland, watch a disc-
shaped, buzzing UFO approach them and hover. It is so close to Heinonen
that he could touch it with his ski pole. From an opening in the center
of the object’s bottom, a bright light beam is emitted, creating an
illuminated area of 3 feet in diameter on the snow beneath it, edged
with black. A red gray mist descends again; when it clears, both men can
see, only 10 feet away, a 3-foot tall humanoid creature standing in the
illuminated area, carrying in its hands a black box with a pulsating
yellow light. Its arms and legs are very thin, its face pale like wax,
and its nose hooked; it wears a light green coverall with darker green
knee boots, white gauntlets, and a conical metallic helmet. Then the
mist again descends, and long red, green, and purple sparks float out
from the lighted area. A sort of flame rises from this spot and enters
the UFO; then the mist and the UFO vanish. After this experience,
Heinonen finds his right leg numb, and he vomits and passes black urine;
Viljo also suffers severe physiological effects. Heinonen claims, two
years later, a series of contacts with a female spacewoman.

Description: At 3:45 in the afternoon two cross-country
skiers, Aarno Heinonen and Esko Viljo, heard a buzzing sound and saw a
round, ten foot wide metallic object with a flat bottom and a dome in
the sky outside of Imjarvi, Finland. It was wrapped by a reddish-gray
mist. The UFO descended to within ten feet of the snow-covered ground in
a forest clearing and the buzzing sound ceased. It was described as
being so close to Heinonen that he could have touched it with his ski
pole.
The two men next saw a beam of light come from an
opening in the bottom of the craft. It created an illuminated area three
feet in diameter on the snow beneath it, edged with black. A red gray
mist descended again, and when it cleared both men could see, only 10
feet away, a three foot tall little man on the ground standing in the
illuminated area. He had thin arms and legs, a pale waxy complexion with
a hook nose, and wore a light green coverall uniform with darker green
knee boots, white gauntlets, and a conical metallic helmet.
He
held a small black box at his chest level with a pulsating yellow light
from which a beam was emitted. Then the mist descended again, and long
red, green and purple "sparks" floated out from the lighted area. A
flame of sorts rose from this spot and the being entered the UFO. Then
the mist vanished along with the UFO. After this experience, Heinonen
found that his right leg was numb. He vomited and he passed urine that
was black in color. Viljo also suffered severe physiological effects.
Aarno Heinonen would go on to experience other close encounters, two
years later, in a series of contacts with a fair skinned female
being.

Description: The UFO Subcommittee of the American
Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics sponsors a panel that meets in
New York City to discuss differing viewpoints on UFOs. Among the panel
members are Hynek, McDonald, Thornton
Page, Gordon D. Thayer, and Philip
Klass. The
subcommittee, led by Joachim P.
Kuettner, consists of scientists with no previous position on UFOs
and reaches several middle-of-the-road conclusions. It criticizes the
NAS position that the ETH is the least likely explanation and rejects
McDonald’s position that it is the “least unsatisfactory.” It criticizes
the Condon report, in which the conclusions do not match the data, and
recommends a moderate-level, ongoing study of UFOs.

Locations: Cradle Hill; Warminster, Wiltshire,
England
Description: 11:00 p.m. About 30 UFO spotters gathered
on Cradle Hill, just outside Warminster, Wiltshire, England, see a
flashing purple light. One of their sensors buzzes, indicating a strong
magnetic field, and one observer (Norman Foxwell) takes photos that
appear in the July/August 1970 Flying Saucer Review. But the UFO is
actually a light beam from a high-intensity purple spot-lamp operated by
a group of UFO debunkers, among them physicist David I. Simpson. Foxwell
himself is part of the skeptical group (having pre-exposed a spurious
UFO image), as is the individual who operated the bogus magnetic-field
sensor. The hoax is revealed six years later.

Description: Kalle Tiihonen, age 39, a locally well
known and respected retired athlete, had just come from the sauna and
was drinking coffee in his kitchen in Kursu, Salla, Finland at around 5
p.m. when he and his family heard a sound resembling a swarm of bees. He
then had the feeling that someone was staring at him from the doorway
behind him. He turned around and saw a small creature about 1.2 meters
in height, clad in a tight fitting shiny green suit and helmet. The
creature had very dark, large eyes, with a human look. Tiihonen believed
that the creature had not come in through the door since he would have
heard some noise. For several moments they stared at each other, and
then Tiihonen asked the creature where he was from. "From the space,"
was the answer. Tiihonen was unsure if he in fact heard the answer or if
it was a mental message. In an effort to make conversation Tiihonen
asked the alien if the Apollo 13 astronauts, then stranded in space,
would get back home safely. "Yes they will", was the answer. Tiihonen
spoke with the being of other subjects for some time, but could not
recall later what they spoke about, other than the creature promised to
return. It took a step backwards and disappeared in an instant. Tiihonen
again heard the noise resembling a swarm of bees. Tiihonen's
eight-year-old son was sitting in another room during the encounter and
heard his father talking to someone, but the dividing wall kept him from
seeing the humanoid. However, he did see a bright object land on the
grass outside, and also saw it lift off. Tiihonen ran to the sauna where
his wife was and told her about his encounter. After the incident,
Tiihonen was unable to sleep for three nights in a row, and experienced
a sort of malaise for over a week.

Argentina a luminous disc-shaped object glowed as bright as the sun, yet
vanished while still in view. A man by the name of Galan took a
photograph of it before it disappeared. Richard Hall gives the
photographer a high rating for reliability and the photograph a strong
rating for genuineness.

Description: Around midnight. Several independent
groups of witnesses to the west of Lake Anten, Västra Götaland, Sweden,
watch a red, glowing sphere fly around the lake and neighboring areas.
It occasionally sends out a beam of light to the ground. Some of the
observers get the impression that the beams originate on the ground
rather than from the object. The next morning a few of the observers get
into boats and sail to the spot where the sphere was seen hovering. In
one corner of the garden of an isolated farmhouse named Enebacken, they
find three round marks, one foot in diameter and 1.5 inches deep, burned
into the ground in the shape of an equilateral triangle. A UFO group in
Gothenburg, Sweden, takes soil samples to a laboratory for gamma-ray
testing and finds significant non-background radiation at a peak that
seems to derive from cesium-137, a radioactive isotope.

Description: John L. Acuff, an experienced manager but
not a UFO researcher, becomes the new president of NICAP. He is the
former executive director of the Washington, D.C.-based Society of
Photographic Scientists and Engineers [now the Society for Imaging
Science and Technology], which has cooperated with NICAP on
photoanalysis but also has military and CIA connections. Acuff and G.
Stuart Nixon dismantle the NICAP system of affiliates and state
subcommittee system that have promoted the organization for years.
Regional members are told to operate independently from one another;
cooperation is discouraged. Criticism of the government’s UFO policy is
no longer permitted and NICAP turns into a mere “sighting collection
center.” Nixon is appointed executive director.

Description: 12:45 a.m. A truck driver is approaching
Emerald Beach, New South Wales, when he sees a bright light on he ocean
side of the highway. A circular object rises from behind some woods
1,600 feet from the road. It hovers for 30 seconds at an altitude of 66
feet. Relative to the trees, the object appears to be about 33 feet in
diameter, and flames seem to shoot from its base. It slowly returns to
the ground, where it is partially obscured by trees, but it continues to
emit beams of light from its top and sides. Fearful, the driver leaves
the area. Ufologist Bill
Chalker accompanies the witness to the landing site, where they
discover six circles of dead grass of varying sizes and burned
trees.

Description: In Evillers, Doubs department, France in
1970, six children reported seeing four three-and-a-half-foot tall
humanoid beings. The bulky humanoids wore red tops with black straps,
and carried large sacks on their belts. They also saw a strange gray
"dog" creature that jumped a distance of 40 feet. At around 2:45 p.m.
Marie, age 10, was standing on the road opposite a house that was being
used as a storehouse and stable, when she saw a figure at a
windowpane-less second floor window. The being was the size of a child,
but had a big protruding stomach. She told other children and several of
them, led by Noel, age 12, entered the building. Noel saw a small person
about 3.5 feet tall in a red sweater with a black shoulder strap across
it, which he chased down the stairs and outdoors to the
pasture.
That evening at 6:30 p.m. Bertrand, age 10, was near
the building when he noticed a "boy" about 3.5 feet tall standing beside
it. He had a big belly and was wearing a red sweater crossed by a wide
black strap. This "boy" ran around behind the building. A short time
later Noel, Simon, and Barthelemy all saw a long gray animal, which they
called a "dog", make a giant leap from the second floor window (about 12
feet high), and landed on the ground some 40 feet from the house. It
left footprints "like a calf's." Then a small person like those seen
earlier came out of the barn and called the "dog" to him with a snap of
his fingers. He then passed a thick leash around its neck. Then three
more such beings appeared, all alike except that one lacked a large
stomach. They wore black hats with a peak behind. All four, with the
"dog", then began to run very rapidly down the road away from the
village. Two trucks passed and as they did the little men and their
"dog" nimbly jumped off the road and hid. They ran out of sight. The
next day the "dog's" paw prints were found. Six days later, the building
mysteriously caught fire and burned to the ground.

navigator Norman Baker, aboard their boat the Ra II, radioed in that
they had watched a UFO move across the horizon for several minutes
during the early morning hours. It disappeared in a "bright orange
flash." The sighting was not connected with any space launches, but may
have been related to a U.S. Navy Polaris missile launch. Heyerdahl and
his crew were attempting to prove that ancient Egyptians could have
crossed the Atlantic in papyrus boats centuries before Columbus.

Description: Paul Foster, in the St. Helliers section
of Auckland, New Zealand, saw a figure about 20 yards away from him
while working on a car. It was facing in the opposite direction. Viewed
from the rear, the humanoid was about 5'9" tall and wore a one-piece
blue coverall, the legs of which were tucked into mud covered boots. The
man carried a leather case on his left hip attached to a strap over his
right shoulder, and was holding a box-like object to his face with a
periscope like extender sticking out and up to the right side. This
periscope device was pointed away from the observer to the north, toward
the sun. The figure was blond with short-cropped hair. He walked
dragging his feet, as if fatigued. Foster glanced away thinking it was
perhaps a mailman, but when he realized it was Sunday, he knew this
could not be. When he again looked up the figure had gone. Foster rushed
out in search of him but could find no trace.

Description: At 11:40 a.m. Mr. And Mrs. Aristeu
Machado, their five daughters, and Mr. Joao Aguiar of Leblon, Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil watched a grayish metallic object 12-18 feet wide land
on the ocean 700-1000 yards away, throwing spray up on all sides. It
floated 100 yards closer to shore and they could see that it had a
transparent cupola, outside of which were two short, thickset figures
wearing dark gray metallic coveralls and helmets. After 30-40 minutes
the object took off nearly horizontally. Underneath it showed red,
green, and yellow lights. It left behind it a white, floating hoop
shaped object and a yellow ball, both of which were lost from view as
they floated toward the shore.

Description: 3:00 a.m. A 33-year-old Port Monmouth, New
Jersey, housewife wakes up and sees a “big round ball” with an “eerie
white glow” hovering over the meadows across the street. She watches it
bouncing back and forth for 15 minutes as a series of red lights flash
in sequence across it. The size is about 25–30 feet wide. The
streetlight has gone out and comes back on when the object leaves. Her
son and brother-in-law later find three imprints 30–40 feet apart in the
shape of a triangle in the meadow. They also find circles impressed in
the grass, the largest 15–20 feet in diameter. Then they find tracks
“going to the creek like they had dragged some small round thing into
the ditch” as well as “two sets of a dozen imprints which were about two
feet apart. They were curved like raindrops. It was very visible, the
grass was all crushed down, there was mud on the banks of the creek, and
there were signs of the tracks in the mud.” One week later, the light
returns and crosses the field across the street. The family television,
the car ignition, and the telephone behave strangely for days
afterward.

Description: Sequoyah Trueblood was sitting by his pool
at his townhouse in Laurel, Maryland, watching his children swimming
with his wife sitting next to him. Without knowing why, he felt
compelled to leave. He got up, went into the house, changed his clothes,
packed a small bag, drove to the airport and took a plane to Oklahoma
City. A friend then drove him to Norman, Oklahoma. He felt strange and
wanted to lie down, so went to lie down in his friend's bedroom. He was
lying down relaxing when he saw a vortex of swirling lights "like a
rainbow" into which he was sucked. Mr. Trueblood then found himself
standing in a beautiful garden surrounded by hedges. He felt wide awake.
In front of him he saw a silvery saucer-shaped craft and a shimmering
small silver being standing on steps that came down from the bottom of
the craft. The being had a grayish complexion and had a large baldhead
with large eyes. The witness sensed that the being was "androgynous,"
neither male nor female. The being communicated telepathically and told
him that he had been sent to take him because "they" wanted to talk to
him. He agreed to go and walked up the steps. Once inside the craft he
heard no sound, but through a small window he could see the moon, the
sun, and "millions of stars" go by in an instant. Soon the craft was
hovering over a beautiful white city in what he believed was another
planet or universe. He next found himself down on the ground. The people
in the city appeared to be both male and female, wore white robes, and
were fair skinned with "hair that was glowing like the color of
sunlight." The small being then took him down a street lined with
beautiful white buildings three stories tall to a clearing in the woods
that seemed like a park. There were a number of people there, and a male
said to him that if he would "pay attention." The people told him that
they did not need food, for the air they breathed was converted into
what was needed to sustain life. A leader figure told him that he had
been brought here to show him the potential of the human race. Soon he
asked to be returned, and was taken back into the craft, through the
vortex, and found himself back in bed.

clear that he wants a major effort against domestic dissidents. At an
Oval Office meeting in June with the Inter Agency Committee on
Intelligence (H. R.
Haldeman, John
Ehrlichman, Tom Charles
Huston, J. Edgar
Hoover, Richard Helms, Adm. Noel
Gaynor, and Lt. Gen. Donald W.
Bennett), Nixon hears suggestions for expanded mail openings,
resumption of illegal break-ins, electronic surveillance, and expanded
counterintelligence. He approves the plan in July but will not sign it;
neither will Haldeman or Ehrlichman. The plan was originally put
together by Huston. Hoover torpedoes it when he announces that he will
go along with it as soon as he gets written authorization from Nixon for
all those break-ins and wiretaps.

Description: 5:30 p.m. A witness comes across a landed
domed disc, about 20 feet in diameter and 10 feet high with windows in
the dome and portholes in its side, sitting on 4 legs near
Jabreilles-les-Bordes, Haute-Vienne, France. He is blinded by a
yellow-orange light beam and paralyzed by fright. As the object ascends
with a whistling sound, he feels a wave of heat. At 330 feet altitude,
the object jumps vertically and disappears behind a mountain. Four
imprints are found forming an irregular figure on the hillside.

Description: Day. A group of Russian hydrologists are
conducting research on a motorboat on Kronotsky Lake, Kamchatka Krai,
Russia. Suddenly, about a half-mile away a dome of water rises up and a
gray-colored oval object rises up. It is roughly 165 feet in diameter,
rises to about 500 feet, and hovers nearly overhead. The engine of the
motorboat stalls. The team watches for another 90 seconds before they
row away, but the object moves away at reat speed and disappears. The
boat’s motor starts working again.

a brightly lit, yard-wide sphere in the sky that stopped, descended
vertically into a clearing in the forest, and then darkened. At 10:45
p.m. a UFO in Cazalla de la Sierra, Seville, Spain caused the furious
barking of two dogs. What appeared before the four witnesses was a
two-dimensional illuminated 2 m by 1 m rectangle, hovering in the sky
only ten meters away, perpendicular to the ground, which blocked the
view of the vegetation behind it. It vanished when a gun was pointed in
its direction.

Dan
Katchongva, that he is a
true prophet heralding the coming of a True White Brother, publicly
summons his space brother friends telepathically for 15 minutes in
Prescott, Arizona, where UFOs have been reported over the previous few
days. After Solem announces that “they’re here,” a “star” appears that
had not been there before and Solem receives a message from space
brother Paul 2, who tells him that the saucers are appearing because of
a Hopi prophecy. Others see zigzagging lights in the sky over the next
few nights, and Prescott Courier photographer Chuck
Roberts takes a time-lapse photo of one.

Description: The witness, who was staying at his
parents home that night, felt a strange compulsion to go out and drive
to nearby Lake Michigan in order to watch the sky. He had arrived at the
shore near Good Hart, Michigan at around 10:30 p.m. when a very bright
light caught his eye. It seemed to have a descending trajectory, and he
discounted any mundane explanation for what he saw. Watching through a
telescope, he realized that the craft had orange, yellow, green and blue
indigo lights. He could now see a large disc-shaped outline that glided
lower towards his position. He saw a very brightly lit, large
cartouche-shaped window. Inside he caught a glimpse of some figures who
seemed to be peering over a console or instrument panel. The craft
descended silently behind a rise about 100 yards from the witness. It
hovered for a moment, then settled down on the beach.
For
15-20 minutes he saw no movement around the object, and so, curious, he
walked towards it. The air around the UFO felt warm. He stopped about 50
feet from the huge object and heard a metallic sound. By the faint light
available he saw a ramp come snaking out of the side of the ship toward
him. The ramp sloped up to the blank hull. There was no opening visible,
just a long ramp like a tongue sticking out from the side and burying
itself in the sand just ahead of the witness. Without giving it much
thought he walked up the ramp, and as he approached the hull seemed to
dissolve ahead of him. He walked through an opening that appeared in his
path. The interior of the ship resembled terra-cotta stone, and there
was a soft illumination that emanated from the walls. It was comfortably
cool inside and the air smelled of sage and cinnamon. He was in a
corridor that stretched ahead of him in both directions until it
disappeared beyond inside walls. Various small openings with little
handles and knobs were situated at what appeared to be random locations
along the corridor. He walked to his left down the corridor, the aroma
of sage and cinnamon pervasive and persisting. He soon found a door and
realized that the passage behind him was closing itself off into a door
as well.
He walked into what appeared to be a central core of
the object. Moments later he came upon an improbably placed viewing
plate in which he could see the south end of Lake Michigan and lights
from the nearby Big Rock Nuclear Power Plant. As he spoke to himself,
his voice echoed strangely through the confines of the ship. He noticed
to his right a view plate. He caught a glance through the darkened glass
of several creatures that seemed to be at the controls. He looked inside
the control room and saw five figures all with their backs to him. The
figures were humanoid in form with large heads. They seemed to be
occupied with a series of procedures. The five were all dressed in a
similar style. The outfits were form-fitted, and tended to give off a
bluish glow. The middle figure turned slowly to face him. The eyes of
the humanoid were much larger than a human's and spread farther around
the sides of the head. No nose was visible, with flat cheekbones,
lending a somewhat rotund appearance to the face .
At one
point the witness saw himself in his own mind, apparently the way the
creatures perceived him. The beings communicated via telepathy and he
was escorted into another room where he was sat in a chair with knobs
and controls in front of it. There he saw 3-D images flash through his
mind at very high speed. At one point the aliens brought him a small
cube-shaped container that contained a dark blue liquid, which he was
told to drink. The aliens spoke among each other in a strange singsong
language. He was told that, among other things, that the speed of light
was "imaginary." He received the impression that the craft was
impossibly larger inside than what it looked like from the outside. The
aliens told him that their main interest in coming to earth was water.
He was eventually deposited back at the same spot on the beach where he
was initially picked up.

Description: Thirty minutes later, a 22-year-old woman

sound accompanied by TV interference at one o'clock in the morning.
Opening the door to her house she saw a silvery Saturn-shaped object
standing on legs. On top was a transparent cupola bearing a bluish-white
rotating light; and around its perimeter were other multi-colored
lights. A few feet away stood a tall man dressed in a dark blue or black
tight-fitting uniform. It had a close fitting hood of the same color
with shining white wrist bands, anklets, and a buckle. The man was
examining a nearby field of alfalfa. He then turned and took long
strides toward the UFO, which was approximately 30 meters from the
witness. She closed her door, frightened about being discovered, but
heard the intense whistling sound again as the object took off.
Footprints were found in the area, and for several nights the site where
the UFO had landed glowed at night.

Description: A ten year old student in Bukit Mertajam,
Penang, Malaysia reported seeing about 25 landed small objects among the
bushes just outside school grounds. From each of the objects emerged a
three inch tall humanoid. As he approached the UFOs the school bell rang
and he returned to class and did not see the objects depart. After
school six school boys in the same village reported seeing a very small
disc-shaped object, blue in color, land in some bushes near their
school. Five little men described as merely three inches tall emerged
from the object. One was dressed in a yellow suit and the other four
wore blue uniforms. They were seen installing some type of aerial on a
tree branch that apparently sent out signals. The boys became frightened
and ran away.

Mohlinder were riding in a car near Narken, Sweden in a rainstorm with
their friend, Assar Sandberg, who was driving. They saw in the
headlights a little man on the roadway, no more than three feet tall,
who raised both arms to cover his face as the car approached. There was
a blinding flash and a sound like a gunshot. Sandberg slammed on the
brakes. The little man was still there. They drove on by and had a brief
glimpse of his apparel: he wore a grayish rain cape and a helmet like a
western hat.

Description: At 6:30 a.m. several young boys in Bukit
Mertajam, Penang province, Malaysia encountered a round blue object on
the ground, and several three inch tall ugly humanoids stood around the
object. One of the humanoids took out an object resembling a gun and
shot one of the boys on his hand when the boy attempted to grab him. The
boys ran to get their teachers but upon returning to the site the object
and the creatures were gone. Later that same day the same young witness
from the previous day encountered a small UFO on the ground near the
school compound. Five three-inch tall humanoids emerged from the object.
One of them, who appeared to be the leader, wore a yellow uniform and
had two horn-like protrusions on his head. The other four wore blue
uniforms. The leader pointed a weapon at the witness and shot at him.
The witness blacked out and was found later lying in the bushes. He
regained consciousness later, and a small red dot appeared on his leg
where he had been shot by the creature. Two other boys in the same
village went out looking for the reported small UFO and spotted two tiny
men among some bushes. One was on a rock and the other on a tree branch.
Both figures were dressed in yellow suits, and one had only one arm and
appeared to be holding a small gun. The boys attempted to capture the
entities but they got away. That evening the young son of a local
high-ranking police official was returning from school when he saw two
tiny figures hiding in the bushes near the school compound. As he tried
to capture them he was shot in the hand and received a small cut.

Description: At 6:35 a.m. three people had just arrived
at a bus stop at Lindberg Boulevard and West Road in Olmstead Falls,
Ohio when two strange figures approached. The two men were dressed in
glowing orange suits from head to foot with only their faces uncovered.
Their skin was yellowish. Their headgear was conical and they were
carrying a disc-like object over their heads. They stood about five feet
tall.
The beings got to within 50 feet of a house and then
turned and walked away, side-by-side, to a nearby railroad crossing.
They stood there for a few minutes, then walked a short distance towards
the witnesses. As the witnesses boarded a bus, one of the beings
extended his arm upward. At this point they were able to see that the
figure was wearing a cape.

from red to orange to red as it moved about. The trees were illuminated
by the close approach of the object, and it made a humming noise. The
sighting lasted for two hours. Three round depressions were found in the
grass were the object apparently landed. The depressions were 40 cm in
diameter, 5-7 cm deep, and arranged in an equilateral triangle 3 meters
apart.

Description: 9:00 p.m. While walking home from a high
school football game in Jessup, Pennsylvania, Frank Scassellati, 16,
observes a glowing white, apparently metallic, silvery disc in the
southeast sky moving from left to right. Around the dome on top is a row
of rectangular windows; three spheres and a flat circle are visible on
the underside. The object moves out of sight behind local terrain.
Though he does not report the sighting to any authorities, Scassellati
says that a few nights later he notices a limousine parked outside of
his house with four men in black suits and hats sitting in it. They
reappear for several nights but he has no interaction with them.

Description: After an argument with her mother in Sao
Joa da Boa Vista, Sao Paulo, Brazil 17-year-old Valeria was upset and
drove away from her house with her brother. They parked the car in an
isolated area at 7:30 p.m. to smoke cigarettes and relax. They soon
heard a loud buzzing sound similar to those emitted by crickets. The
sound rose in intensity until it became unbearable. At that moment
Valeria's mind seemed to go blank and she did not come to until 10:15
p.m. After the incident Valeria suffered from strange dreams of
lights.
During a hypnotic regression session she remembered
being in the car and hearing the loud humming sound. Moments later she
found herself inside a room illuminated by an orange light. The room was
very cold and she felt a tingling sensation on her hands. She was lying
on top of a "bed" and she could not move her head. At first she could
only see what appeared to be luminous spheres floating around her.
Suddenly she felt someone holding down her hands. A figure then stood in
front of her. She described the figure as short, with a large hairless
head and dark eyes. Soon a sort of cable with what appeared to be a
needle on its tip was introduced into her nose. The needle emitted a
greenish liquid. A small implant was also apparently inserted between
her eyes. Moments later a small cut was made on one of her big toes, but
she did not bleed or felt any pain. A voice in her head told her that
she was being implanted in order to facilitate future contacts. Soon one
of the short humanoids approached her and took her on an "astral"
journey. Both traveled through the solar system, around Saturn and the
Sun and even inside the earth's interior. Soon awoke back in the
car.

Description: In Jessup, Pennsylvania a 16-year-old boy
was returning home from a high school football game at ten o’clock at
night when, three blocks from his home, he sighted a disc-shaped UFO. It
was silver-aluminum in color and approximately 1,000 feet in length. It
had a turret on top surrounded by a row of windows. The underside had
three large spheres, with a central flat disk. It was glowing white. The
sky was clear and the object moved silently across the night sky in an
easterly direction. While deciding whether to report this incident or
not, the witness was peering out his kitchen window and sighted a large
black limousine. He could see it quite clearly because there was a
street lamp directly across the street from his house. Four occupants
were in the vehicle. Two were seated in the front, and two in the back.
Each had on dark suits and hats similar to those worn in the 1940's.
They sat in their vehicle, motionless. They returned for the next
several evenings. There was no verbal or physical contact with the
strangers.

Description: At 6:10 a.m. in Sheerwater, Nova Scotia
radar picked up an unidentified flying object, and an orange, yellow,
and green object trailing white smoke and emitting a high-pitched whine.
Horses were frightened by the presence of the UFO. At 9:00 a.m. a
59-year-old woman in saw a luminous orange object descend very low over
some houses in Montreal, Quebec. She described the object as a very
luminous orange circle surrounded by a sparkling white halo. Inside the
circle she saw a small black object pivoting upon itself. During this
time she realized that she was paralyzed and couldn't move. After a
minute the object ascended rapidly into the sky, leaving a long trail
behind it. She wanted to get some air and stepped out onto her balcony.
She confronted a very heavy mist and a strong odor, which had a choking
effect upon her. She went back inside, fainted, came to 10-15 minutes
later with her eyes burning, her head feeling hot and heavy, and quite
stunned. She felt electrical jolts in her body, and her hair had turned
yellow in color. Her diabetes also manifested itself in an alarming
fashion. UFO report involving physiological effects occurred in Quebec
City, Quebec. At 9:00 p.m. that night in Saint-Romuald, Quebec two
witnesses saw a elongated, luminous flying object. Their car radio had
heavy static during the sighting.

are parked on a dirt road 3–4 miles north and a half-mile west of
MacGregor, Manitoba. They notice a bright light approaching from about a
half-mile away. When it lands 150 feet from them, they notice it is an
oblong object 8 feet in diameter with 9 “rods” and a red light on top.
Adams takes Martin home but returns to the site. The object has moved
farther away and is hovering above the ground. As he drives closer, he
sees a humanoid entity about 4 feet tall dressed in a helmet and a
silver metallic uniform crossing the road about 50 feet in front of him.
He brakes, but the entity has gone. The UFO slowly lifts vertically from
the ground and speeds away to the northwest.

Norway
Description: 5:40 p.m. Reidar Salvesen is driving about
2 miles east of Helleland, Rogaland, Norway, when a dazzling light
forces him to stop the car. He looks up and sees a globe about 60 feet
in diameter approaching noiselessly. It stops about 18 feet in front of
the car and hovers for 50 seconds about 30 feet up. Suddenly the object
shoots straight up into the air, causing Salvesen to fall on the
pavement. He hears a sharp crack caused by his front windshield
shattering. About 3,200 feet in the air the globe changes to a fireball,
which quickly disappears. After sweeping up the shards of windowpane
glass, he drives on, but feels a numbness in his tongue a few minutes
later. He also has an abrasion on his hand from falling down, but the
skin sloughs off as if burned, and he has a redness around his eyes when
he returns home. His travel clock starts keeping time badly.

extending down to the road. It follows his car about 20 feet to the

hovers above a truck parked a half-mile away. When he comes alongside
the truck, the object moves to the left side of his car about 30 feet
away and almost on the ground. Wilkinson slows down and comes to a stop,
and the object follows suit, hovering for another 10–15 seconds before
disappearing into the lights of Moose Jaw to the west. It has followed
his car for 12 minutes and 10 miles.

Description: 9:00 p.m. Albert Formiller is fishing for
bass in Cholla Bay, Sonora, Mexico, when he sees a light in the sky
coming from a saucer-shaped object, which stops and hovers about 200–300
feet above the surface. A light from a tube on the bottom illuminates a
broad stretch of water about one half-mile wide. It changes from a broad
floodlight to a sharp spot on the surface, apparently as it is raised or
lowered. After a few minutes, a cloud forms around the object. After 5
minutes, the searchlight is turned off and a similar light appears on
top of the UFO, illuminating the upper part of the cloud. The object
then moves west and is visible for 20 minutes in all.

Description: At seven o'clock in the evening a compact
"cloud" UFO emitting rays from the top was seen by hundreds in Belo
Horizonte, Brazil during a time when part of the city experienced a
power outage. At the same time Moyses Santos, a resident of the city,
found himself surrounded by half a dozen three-foot tall beings in his
room "who went around touching and upsetting everything." They floated
about in the air, and had a translucent quality. They "looked like ice."
When they got near a table lamp, they "lit up in many lights." One of
them handed Santos a piece of paper on which he drew a flying saucer,
without knowing why. The being then took the paper back. Finally they
disappeared by passing through the walls. He went outside in time to see
the UFO above the city, flooding the area with brilliant light. Other
sightings occurred about the same time in several Brazilian
cities.

High School is riding his bicycle home at Tatebayasi, Gunma Prefecture,
Japan, when he sees 5–6 objects flying in formation on a straight path
from northeast to southwest. Seconds later, a solitary object appears to
the north and approaches swiftly. The student parks his bicycle and runs
up some steps to a raised enclosure for a better view. The single UFO
changes course and circles several times, descending slowly. It then
hovers, climbs, and disappears. The student gets back on his bike and
sees a bright flash of white light to the southeast, which startles him
and he pedals home quickly. The student returns the next day to the
enclosure, which is actually a raised tombstone. He finds four circular
patches of flattened grass.

on their property in Vader, Washington three days before, a family
watched a very bright object approach their house at 7:15 a.m. It seemed
to have a central dome with a revolving ring around it and was deep
orange in the center. The craft tilted slightly to one side, hovered
briefly over some nearby power lines, then brightened while making a low
sweep over the area. Two of the witnesses saw what appeared to be a gray
colored "shape" drop from the object and scurry away into the woods
before the UFO departed. Later that week a mysterious dark "prowler" was
seen peering through windows.

Description: Two independent sets of photographs
showing luminous balls of light in motion were taken on this night in
Alamogordo, New Mexico. Three teenagers--Larsh, Neal, and Sellars--took
a photograph of two lights in parallel motion at 10:00 p.m. They had had
sightings of similar phenomena earlier in the week and were prepared to
take a time exposure on this night. They made their photograph using a
Pentax camera on a tripod. The two lights were also seen by another
resident, Hjalmar Bowlby, earlier that same evening. Remarkably, they
weren't the only ones who were able to catch an image of a UFO using a
camera that night. At 10:35 p.m. Jerry Mozer, also of Alamogordo, New
Mexico took a photo of a luminous point in motion, making an abrupt
change of course resulting in a "buttonhook" effect on the image. Both
photographs are reproduced below.

Description: Author Preston Nichols claims he begins
working for AIL-Eaton, a defense contractor on Long Island. He claims he
begins working on a series of exotic projects at Camp Hero in Montauk,
NY, which allegedly did some experiments at Brookhaven National
Laboratory.
Note: Brookhaven is linked to claims of a UAP crash on 24 November 1992 with little corroborating information. A MUFON report at the time suggested a video showed a large fire of an unknown object, large parts being driven away on flatbeds, special access by Brookhaven personnel, county police turned away by men in black jumpsuits and multiple eyewitness testimony of lights flying erratically over the crash site.

Description: Alleged AIL-Eaton contractor Preston
Nichols claims experiments in consciousness manifestation began at Camp
Hero, culminating with the “Montauk Chair,” which could change thought
into reality. Nichols claims Project Phoenix III worked
on time travel aspects of consciousness manifestation, and teleportation
to other locations began in 1982. Nichols claims Project
Rainbow began in 1983 and accidentally manifested an entity
that destroyed some of the base and its personnel, thereby ending
psychic operations at Camp Hero.
Note: Nichols made these allegations in a book in 1992 with no independent sourcing. Over the next decade, Duncan Cameron, Steward Swerdlow and Al Bielek claimed to have been participants in Montauk activities too, though none provided any proof. Somewhat dubiously, all claim to have “remembered” what happened at the facility after they began communicating.
Later, Bielek began to claim he and Cameron served in the Philadelphia Experiment (see April 1956) and that he time traveled to the 1980s to work on the Montauk programs. Bielek changed his story several times and there is no proof he was ever in the US Navy as he claims.
Uri Geller does “corroborate” the existence of a Project Phoenix at the facility.
Note: Lawyer Andrew Basiago claims he was experimented on in a DARPA Project Pegasus that utilized the “Montauk chair” to view different scenes in time. He has provided no evidence of these claims.

Location: Saapunki, Kuusano, Finland
Description: 6:15 a.m. Maun and Matta Talana are
drinking coffee when they see a brilliant light approaching from the
lake outside their home at Saapunki, Kuusano, Finland. It is about 33
feet in diameter and moving against the wind. Their electricity goes off
briefly. Looking out the window, the Talalas see their whole yard bathed
in light caused by a huge fireball about 60 feet away, which rises up
and disappears after a few seconds. Around 8:30 a.m., their son Timo
asks them what the marks are in the snow outside. He has noticed a spot
of hard green ice that is not covered with snow. Mauno takes some green
ice and melts it into dark green water. The melted area is about 20 feet
long by 10 feet wide, in the middle of which are ice needles as big as
fingers with a ball of ice on top and some soot. The following day, he
tells the newspaper, which sends a photographer to the site. UFO
researchers from Oulu arrive on January 6 and take samples from the
melted area and measure radiation.

Description: At 9:05 p.m. Richard Williams, his wife,
and son were driving toward Willard, Ohio from the north when they saw a
low flying object that "looked like a bat" coming toward their car. "On
the middle of each wing there seemed to be a rocket or a jet engine, and
it had red and white lights on each wing and on the tails." They thought
at first it was a plane crashing. It was 25-30 feet in diameter and came
to within 100 feet off their car and then took off toward the east.
There was a transparent "cockpit" in the front of the object, through
which could be seen the movements of some kind of humanoid creature,
silhouetted by a flashing light behind it. Multiple reports of UFO
sightings this night came from Tiro, Sandusky, and other sections of
Huron County, Ohio around the same time.

in the town of Kiiminki they observed a light behind the car on the
right hand side of the road. After some time the light passed over to
the left side of the road, during which the ears of Mrs. Kuittinen
plugged up. When they came to a field the light disappeared. Suddenly
Mrs. Kuittinen, who was driving, saw a one meter tall creature with a
helmet on its head. It was clad in a brown-green coverall suit and
crossed the road using small jumps, disappearing on the other side of
the road. There were no houses or other buildings in the area. The women
were very scared and did not stop to investigate if it had left tracks,
but drove straight to Oulu.

metallic object, shaped like two saucers put together, and with four
thin legs, descending in a clearing 50 feet away. As it landed, a little
entity just under 3-foot tall glided to the ground from an opening in
the underside; dressed in green one-piece "diver's suit," it wore a
helmet with a circular faceplate. (Humcat 1971-6, Tapani Kuningas, FSR

Description: 3:00 p.m. Petter Aliranta and Esko Juhani
Sneck are working in the woods around Kangaskylä, near Kinnula, Finland,
when they see a 15-foot object descend to a clearing 50 feet away. As it
lands, a small entity just under 3 feet tall glides to the ground from
an opening on the underside. Through 3 windows on the UFO, three more
entities can be seen. The entity approaches Aliranta, who turns on his
chain saw. Suddenly, the being turns around and heads back to the UFO.
As the humanoid is rising back up into the air, Aliranta grabs it by the
heel of its boot with his bare hand. It burns him like a hot iron, and
he has to let go. The burns are clearly visible 2 months later. The
humanoid gets back inside, and the UFO takes off with a hum. Before the
two men go back, they look at markings in the snow. At the end of each
landing foot there had ben a round plate. These plates have penetrated
the full depth of the snow (1.3 feet), leaving four round prints forming
an even square 6.5 feet on each side. Circular footprints left by the
entity are clearly visible, about 6 inches wide. Possible hoax.

Description: On this afternoon two young men, P.
Aliranta and E. J. Sneck, were working in the woods in Kangaskyla,
Kinnula, Finland when Mr. Aliranta noticed a 15 foot wide metallic
saucer-shaped object descend and land on four thin legs in a clearing 50
feet away. After it landed a short entity just under 3 feet tall glided
to the ground from an opening in the underside. It was dressed in a
green one-piece "diver's suit" and wore a helmet with a circular
faceplate. It approached the young men, walking on top of the deep snow,
and Aliranta moved toward it with his power chain saw in hand. Through
three windows in the upper part of the object three more entities could
be seen. The humanoid retreated from Aliranta and was levitating into
the object from underneath when the young man grabbed it by the heel of
its boot with his bare hand. He found that touching it burned like a hot
iron and he had to let go at once. As soon as the being was back inside
the object it ascended with a slight buzzing or humming sound. Both men
felt stiff all over and had difficulty moving. Four landing leg marks
and small footprints were left behind in the snow.

other places in Piedmont, Italy, observe a conspicuous red cloud in the
western sky, just above the crest of the Alps, moving majestically and
changing shape slowly. Someone takes a photograph of it from Caluso. The

Description: At 10:30 p.m. Mr. Robert Milcher, age 18,
and a 10-year-old boy in Brooksville, Florida saw a hovering UFO at
least 50 feet in diameter. It had red lights and a searchlight like
beam, which responded to their flashlight signals. Inside a lighted dome
were 6-10 occupants dressed in green coveralls standing around a control
panel. They waved at the witnesses. The two boys felt a numbness and
stinging sensation in their arms and wrists. When the UFO departed, it
emitted a sound like a swarm of bees.

Description: Matt Dickson of Lawton, Oklahoma heard
something out the front of his house early this evening. He looked out
and in the dark caught a glimpse of a vaguely human-like figure kneeling
on the front lawn near a nearby empty fishpond. Curious, Dickson decided
to find out who the stranger was. He stepped out on his front porch for
a better look and was terrified to see a wolf-like man attempting to
scoop up puddles of water from the bottom of the fish pond, crouched on
its hands and knees. The sight was so shocking that Dickson suffered a
heart attack and had to be rushed to Comanche County Memorial Hospital.
In a report to the police Dickson described the creature as tall, with a
lot of hair all over its face and body. It was dressed in an
indescribable manner. Others saw the same or similar creature that same
night.

Description: Gilbert Camus, a radio technician, was
driving to his shop in Savigny, Jura department, France at 1:10 a.m. He
was between Trenal and Condamine when he noticed lights ahead on the
right side of the road. As he approached, he saw that these were on a
line of eight bluish luminescent rectangles on the ground in a marshy
meadow beside the road. Above them he could distinguish, in the
moonlight, a flattened hemispherical dome, apparently of dark metal,
about 25 feet high and 50 feet wide.
When he got closer to the
object he saw three "animals" on all fours climbing up the road bank.
Their heads were level with his windshield so they "must have been of
great stature." Their heads were shaped like an ant's with "a rounded
lobe flanked by two other lobes swelling out like cheeks." He saw no
faces. In the meadow he could see about 20 more of these beings, some
upright and others on all fours. His car had just passed them when it
filled with a bluish white light from behind, as if a "ray" had been
projected at him. He lost control of the car, which spontaneously slowed
down to about 12 mph, then recovered its initial speed when he reached
the outskirts of Condamine. Later, when he took off his clothes he found
on his shirt, below the belt line, several golden yellow rectangles
about 1" by 2". These disappeared after a few minutes. Three days later
similar chocolate brown rectangular marks appeared on his undershirt,
and these persisted through 3 or 4 washings.
The paint began
to come off his car when he washed it. Most surprisingly, he found
himself cured of a liver ailment, which until then had been giving him
excruciating headaches. A semi-elliptical imprint was found in the
meadow the next day about an inch deep, with a long axis of about 36
feet. Inside the circle dandelions, abundant elsewhere in the meadow
were absent, and where it crossed a drainage ditch the ice in the ditch
had melted, and the water still seemed warm. At the edge of the woods
beside the ground marks a large tree branch was freshly broken off. In
the snow were footprints like those of "shoes without heels", some as
big as 16" long.

Description: Two young men, Brian Scott and Nick
Corbin, were in the Superstition Mountains, near Apache Junction,
Arizona to gather snakes. During that night, at 9:06 p.m., they saw a
light coming towards them over the mountains. As it approached they had
a missing time memory loss, and their next recollection was that they
were hastily leaving the campsite two hours later.
During a
hypnosis session five years later Scott described how the object
approached and hovered over them. It was emitting a purplish light from
underneath, and he felt a "pulsating, pulling feeling" as the two men
were lifted up into the craft. They were separated once they were
inside, and Scott was led by a 7 foot tall entity down a corridor to a
door which "shattered" when they entered through it. On the other side
was a small room filled with mist, where he encountered 4 or 5 similar
beings, 7 foot tall and with grayish skin similar to that of a
crocodile, and with 3 fingered hands. The room was cold and the mist
emanated from vents in the floor.
Scott was stripped and
placed against a very brightly lit wall panel. A machine directly in
front of him appeared to "scan" him, and a new 9-foot-tall entity
communicated with him telepathically and asked why he was afraid. His
mind was briefly transported to some other worldly environment,
presumably the being's home planet. The beings that examined him had
huge ears, no hair, and slit-like mouths. Their feet were elephant like,
with three broad toes. When the examination was completed, Scott was
reunited with his friend and they were both returned to the ground with
no conscious memory of what had taken place. However, they both felt an
unspecified terror to such a degree that they immediately packed their
gear and returned to town.

soldier to a fiery red, disc-shaped craft moving slowly over the area.
The guard dogs began howling, and the men all watched as the UFO
suddenly shot away at high speed. Moments later one of the soldiers
screamed in pain from a sudden bright flash that seemed to come from the
ocean nearby. Meanwhile one of the soldiers released one of the guard
dogs, a wolfhound with a fierce disposition, that was going crazy inside
his cage. The dog ran immediately towards some nearby buildings and was
followed closely by two of the men. The dog slowed down and began to
grow menacingly, and one of the men felt heavy static in the air and his
tongue began to itch. Both men then heard a loud noise coming from some
nearby bushes. They saw a huge bulky figure that seemed to move clumsily
among the brush. The men yelled at the figure to stop but it changed
directions and began moving away quickly. Seconds later the men heard
another noise and felt something heavy moving towards them. They fired
their weapons in the direction of the noise and everything became
silent. A search of the area the next day proved fruitless.

Description: After 10:00 p.m. Following several
sightings of a bright light in the sky at West Kempsey, New South Wales,
an aboriginal man at Greenhill sees a hairless face pressed up against
his kitchen window. Immediately he is “sucked out” through the window
and falls 7 feet to the steps below. Frightened but largely unhurt, he
runs away and his wife pursues him. She takes him to the hospital where
a cut on his hand is treated.

Description: In 1971, a middle-aged man in Greenhill,
New South Wales, Australia was standing in his kitchen at around 10 p.m.
when he noticed a small entity standing outside. The man, an Australian
aborigine, next felt a sucking force that pulled him outside, smashing
him through a glass window that had an iron bar across it with a
clearance of less than a foot. His wife, hearing the pane of glass
breaking, entered the kitchen in time to see her 5' 2" husband
disappearing horizontally through the lower pane, which was 4.5 feet
from the floor. To jump through it would have been impossible, as it was
only 32 inches wide and only 10 inches in height, and fronted upon the
kitchen sink. The distance to the ground outside was seven feet. The man
was terrified, yet he could not run from the strange being out of fear.
Instead, he went towards it. He was discovered on the ground by a
relative, cut and bruised, seven feet away from the smashed glass. This
strange occurrence took place only hours after a number of people in
nearby Kempsey had observed a strange bright light in the sky.

D., an engaged couple, were driving near Evans City, Pennsylvania when
they saw a yellow white light drop behind a nearby hill. They drove to
the location on a dirt road and found a luminous object hovering just
above the ground over a ploughed field, 80 yards away. It was 25-30 feet
in diameter and shaped like a large bowl inverted over a smaller one. It
had a series of rectangular, vertical windows in the upper half and
round portholes below the rim. There was a red flickering glow from one
of the upper windows, and Miss L. perceived two human like figures
silhouetted in them. The figures appeared to be very tall, perhaps about
10 feet in height. Frightened, they drove away quickly.

Wales, Australia and her 13-year-old daughter were going home by taxi at
7:30 p.m. On passing Roberts Park they saw an object hovering over the
lighted field where youths were playing football. The field lights
formed a king of "ceiling" over the field and is unlikely that had they
looked up, the players could have seen anything. The object was
"football shaped," the interior light being "the brightest blue
imaginable." The top portion of the UFO was transparent and the bottom
was a greenish metallic "like gun metal" color with three large
transparent portholes. The object was tilted downward at an angle
revealing three tall humanoid figures, over six feet tall, in the
transparent upper half of the UFO. One of the occupants pointed down at
the witness and then turned toward a rectangular, lighted area. Mrs F.
asked the cabbie, a Greek immigrant, to stop the taxi, but he
accelerated away and drove them straight to her home without stopping.
He left in a frightened state without collecting his fare.

three human-sized beings emerge with an odd, gray complexion and
pronounced noses. They wear tight-fitting jump suits and thin

Description: 7:30 p.m. Alojz Krz comes across a UFO
sitting on three legs in a shallow hollow in a field near Stara Cerkev,
Slovenia. He approaches within 65 feet of it, and it frightens him
considerably. Around 8:00 p.m., 17-year-old Angela Rajhs is bicycling in
the same area and watches the landed object for 4–5 minutes. As she is
cycling away, the object takes off, turning in a wide spiral. Rajhs
returns to the scene with her parents the next day and finds several
pointed holes in the ground about 6–8 inches in diameter. The nearby
grass seems burned.

Description: Fifteen-year-old Michael D. of
Passapatanzy, West Virginia was on his way home with his dog after
camping out the previous day with two other boys. He was crossing a
grassy field at 10:00 p.m. when he saw a bright object slowly approach
at a low altitude, passing over some high-tension wires that crossed the
field. He crouched down in some tall grass as the object landed with a
bounce, about 100 feet away. The silvery UFO was higher than it was wide
and had a "walkway" that ran around its circumference. It had red and
white revolving lights on top and made a humming noise. A door "came
down" out of which emerged a "huge" figure who was hunched over and
walked in a "stiff legged, bouncing" fashion. The humanoid being had
long arms and wore shiny, light reflecting clothing. In one hand it held
a glowing box. The humanoid giant appeared to be approaching the tall
grassy area where Michael was hiding, so the teenage ordered his dog to
attack the figure. The being then turned and re-boarded the craft, and
within a couple of minutes it took off. His companions from the camping
expedition came and found Michael a short time later still in the grass,
moaning and very frightened. The next day seven holes where found in the
ground at the site. They were 2.5 inches wide at the top and a foot deep
into the soil. Two days later, Michael and several other family members
saw a bright disc-shaped object, which had been pursuing his sisters as
they drove in a car up the long driveway to their house.

Description: A man was driving home near West
Leisenring, Pennsylvania at 1:10 a.m. and he had just rounded a bend in
the rural road when he noticed an unusual object hovering 20 feet above
the ground. The craft was disc shaped with a dome on top and an antenna
like protrusion. It had a door like opening to the left of its center;
the opening emitted an reddish orange glow from inside. It also emitted
a faint humming sound. He stopped his car to watch, and after two
minutes he saw a figure walk back and forth within the doorway of the
object. The humanoid being was dressed in a grayish white metallic suit
with a hood and stood about six feet tall. The craft itself was dull
gray in color and appeared to have burnt areas along the bottom. The
witness, sitting behind the wheel of his vehicle, turned his head to his
left and saw a similarly garbed figure only three feet way from the
driver's door. He then heard a click and two seconds later a blast threw
him against the vehicle's console. A loud explosion moved the car
forward and the witness drove away as fast as he could. He then drove to
the emergency room of a local hospital where he was treated with what
looked like pellet wounds.

the Avenida Pedro Molina in Mendoza, Argentina
Description: 12:10 p.m. Retired artist Julio Suárez
Marzal is in the first-floor dental office of Walter Griehl on the
Avenida Pedro Molina in Mendoza, Argentina, when they see a flattened,
Saturn-shaped object about a half-mile away to the south. Griehl goes to
retrieve some binoculars and misses most of the sighting. It is an
incandescent dark orange in color and moving from east to west. It
begins floating down with a rocking movement and approaches to within
230 feet. Suárez Marzal sees that it is revolving because of a small
circular mark on its rim. A dense cloud issues from the object and
surrounds it, turning it pearly gray with a faintly bluish sheen. As it
gets closer, the circular mark seems to extend like a bronze-colored
cylinder and has a handle-like protuberance on top. At one point it
moves away to the northeast and disappears for 4 seconds but reappears
even closer, only 130 feet away. It remains stationary for 10 seconds,
and the cylinder seems deliberately pointed toward the short-wave
antenna on the nearby central post office. He estimates it is 18–20 feet
in diameter. It continues rocking and changes shape from a globe to a
hat to an oval. Then after being visible for 90 seconds it takes off
suddenly to the south, leaving a trail of vapor.

Location: Caribbean Sea
Description: 8:30 p.m. The aircraft carrier USS
John
F. Kennedy is completing an Operational Readiness Exercise in the
Caribbean Sea when an incident occurs following an 18-hour period
simulating General Quarters. Yeoman Third Class James M. Kopf is in the
Communications Center monitoring messages on various teletypes. Suddenly
all the messages begin coming in garbled and he hears that all ship
communications are out, including the radar, compasses, and electrical
systems. A signalman from the deck tells them over the intercom that
something is hovering above the ship. Kopf and others rush topside and
see a huge, pulsating, orangish sphere stationed silently above the ship
at a 60°–70° angle. The object remains about 20 minutes, but Kopf sees
it only one minute before General Quarters sounds and he needs to return
to his battle stations. The two F-4 Phantom jets on high readiness alert
cannot take off. Soon the messaging returns to normal and the crew
stands down after 2 hours. Kopf thinks only about 18 men witnessed the
object out of the 5,000 on the carrier, because everyone is exhausted
from the exercise. He hears that commanding officer Capt. Ferdinand
B. Koch is frustrated by the event, but two days later Koch reminds
the crew that certain events are to be considered classified.

Description: At 8:50 p.m. Miss Esther Clappison or
Rosedale, Alberta noticed a light outside her home and went to the
window. She saw what looked like a rectangular window that she judged
was about 200 feet away, illuminated from within by a white light. It
was on a darkened object whose shaped she could not make out, but she
believed was resting on the ground. In the window was a man less that
five feet tall dressed in olive green coveralls. The outfit completely
covered him, even his face. He seemed to be aware of the witness and he
used his body and arm to conceal some sort of instrument panel. He
seemed to be trying to attract the attention of another humanoid figure
outside the object, visible in the light from the window, who was
stooped over and picking up rocks from the ground. She wanted to get
closer to get a better look, but her dog would not let her. Trembling
and cowering, the dog forced his mistress back inside the house. After
the object left the grass at the landing site was charred black over an
area 20 feet in diameter.

Description: 6:00 p.m. Spanish physician Guillermo
Arguello de la Motta is a guest of his friend Antonio Arocha at San Juan
de los Morros, Guárico, Venezuela. They suddenly see two men dressed in
black, both wearing red ties and black berets. They emerge from a
brand-new red Ford Mustang, at a distance of 1,600 feet from the house.
They stand there waiting for 5 minutes, then begin to put on orange
belts, talking together animatedly. Suddenly a shining object appears in
the sky, descends, and stops at a height of 2 feet from the ground. It
is circular, bell-shaped underneath, and has a “turret” on the top. The
object changes rapidly in color from orange to blue and to white.
Suddenly a small staircase is dropped from the object, enabling the two
men from the Mustang to enter the UFO. The staircase is drawn in, then
the object takes off at an impressive speed.

Description: Alain G. was tent camping with three
adolescent boys in a grotto about ten kilometers from Rocamadour, Lot
department, France when he heard the sound of breaking branches outside
his tent at around one o'clock in the morning. They were all concerned
about possible prowlers, so he looked out from his tent window and saw a
human-like figure, foggy white in color like a phantom, walking down a
path toward the boy's tent. The farther away the figure went, the less
distinct it became. Stunned, he got up and ran out of his tent and down
the path toward the other tent, but the figure had disappeared. He got
the boys up and they explored the surrounding area, but they found no
one. They then got into his car and they drove for several kilometers in
both directions but found nothing more unusual.

Description: At 11:00 p.m. Gaetan Paquin, a young man
in his twenties, was just arriving home in Notre-Dame-Du-Nord, Quebec
when a white object flew over the road. He next saw "a completely white
being of human form, with a pointed nose, slanted eyes, and a little
puckered mouth" standing near him. He saw the being in profile. "His
height did not exceed 4 feet. He had no hair, and nothing that resembled
clothing. He was very, very visible in the darkness--there was no light,
for the sky was overcast and the electricity was out that night." The
being appeared to be transparent, and Gaetan had the impression that a
stone thrown at him would have passed right through him. Although the
apparition completely ignored the presence of the witness, Paquin became
frightened and fled.

his two assistants Oswin de Alwis and Nimal Dunuwille, and the driver
Sirisena Wijesinghe are driving between the Hope Estate in
Rikillagaskada, Sri Lanka, and the Rockwood Estate in Hewaheta when they
see a bright object larger than the full moon above the hilly horizon.
Soon it approaches the, and Abeywickrema orders the driver to stop. They
watch the object, now hovering about one- quarter mile away at an
altitude of 1,000 feet. After 10 minutes it silently swoops toward them
at high speed and stops 300 feet away at a height of 100 feet. The
object is about 25 feet in diameter with two “tapering wings” on either
side and casts a fluorescent yellow glow. After a few more minutes, the
UFO moves toward the southwest at a 45° angle after drawing its two
wings inside the main body. Some 50 witnesses report the same or similar
objects in the same area that night, and both Abeywickrema and
Wijesinghe report seeing UFOs around 2:00– 3:00 a.m. after returning
home.

Description: The witness was at home in Valcourt,
Quebec watching television at 8:30 p.m. when his attention was drawn to
the sound of his cows bellowing in a nearby field. The witness and his
wife went outside and saw the cows running from the field. They also saw
a dark spherical object hovering above the field, with a reddish light
shining out of what appeared to be an open door in the object. Three
small men who glowed a pale green color were moving around the object.
They seem to glide just above the ground in rapid, darting movements. At
times the beings seemed to pick something up from the ground. The little
men went back inside the object, closing the door behind them. The UFO
then rose slowly and disappeared over some nearby trees. The next day a
circular spiral was found on the ground, plus a silvery lump of unknown
material that was later tested at Laval University.

we have had no interest in the UFO matter for many years, have no files

Description: At 11:35 p.m. a married couple driving in
a car between Gladstone and Rockhampton in Queensland, Australia
witnessed a circle of lights near a river. What should normally have
been a two hour trip took them only 40 minutes. They have amnesia about
what happened after sighting the lights in the sky, and an unusual oily
residue and marks were found on their car. A possible UFO abduction
involving time loss, a probable translocation, and levitation are
suspected. Hypnotic regression failed due to the main witness having a
violent, shaking, fearful reaction to re-envisioning the event in
memory.

Australia when his car engine stopped and lights died at the same time
the car was illuminated by an orange glow that lit up the side of the
road. Leaving his car, the witness saw an orange oval or disc-shaped
object with two red and one green lights. The object was about 30 feet
in diameter, and had 3-4 windows. It hovered at 50 meters altitude
directly above his car for two to three minutes, and made a buzzing or
purring sound.

Description: At around midnight a 30-year-old woman in
the Gavea district of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil was sitting by an open
window while her husband slept. It was cloudy, and she noticed an orange
glow coming from behind a cloud, which she first thought was the moon.
She watched a large, elliptical metallic object come out from behind the
cloud that was larger than a Boeing jet plane. It hovered, trembling and
shaking like a dry leaf, then it stopped entirely and hovered directly
above the science building on the University campus. Two smaller
objects, perfect replicas of the first, next came out from beneath it
and started oscillating in their flight around the larger one. The
larger UFO was silvery metallic in color but had a wide orange,
phosphorescent band crossing it from side to side. Within this band the
witness believed she saw oval-shaped portholes of a light hue, and three
or four shapes moving behind them.
The larger UFO emitted a
broad, bluish beam of light that fell directly into the room in which
the witness was sitting, so it appeared to have been aimed at her. She
compared the type of light to that of an oxyacetylene lamp. Every time
it hit her it nearly blinded her. The light turned off briefly and then
turned on again, at first gradually, then more brightly. She now felt
irresistibly drawn to it and had to hold on to the back of the settee so
as not to fly out the window. She felt that the light was having a
hypnotizing effect on her, and she tried to call out to her husband but
could not say a word. The beam of light turned off and on five times
over a ten minute period until she finally managed to wake her husband
who came over to see the larger metallic object fly away. It flew at an
incredible speed in a northeasterly direction until it was lost to sight
beyond the Sugar Loaf in the direction of Niteroi.

Description: Three women at a camp in Himbleton, near
Droitwich, England heard a roaring sound and thought that it was a plane
that was going to crash. Instead, they saw a cigar-shaped object with
red and green lights, thirty to forty feet long, that came and hovered
silently for an hour, then rose with a noise and disappeared over the
trees.
