Alien Encounter: Pancakes From Space
Humanoid Eagle River, Wisconsin, April 18 1961.
The following case description is one of weirdest in ufology. On April 18, 1961, Mr. Paul Simonton, a chicken farmer in Eagle River, Wisconsin claimed he witnessed a dis
shaped craft land vertically on his farm. A hatch opened, and when he approached he saw three humanlooking 'men' inside. They asked him for some water. They appea
be cooking pancakes on a griddle, and in exchange for the water they gave him four of the pancakes from griddle. The episode survived a rigorous assessment by
Force and is carried in their files as "unexplained."

Incident: Wisconsin 's strangest close encounter of the third kind must surely be the incident during which Joe Simonton was given three pancakes by "Italianlooking" aliens.
A close encounter of the third kind is an actual meeting between humans and extraterrestrials, and Simonton's is easily the state's best known. Despite the unlikely manner in which
story unfolded, the episode survived a rigorous assessment by the U.S. Air Force and is carried in their files as "unexplained."
Simonton encounter USA 1841961. "Joe Simonton watched a UFO land in his farmyard near Eagle river. A human like alien handed him a jug and gestured for water. In return he was given four small pancakes
departed. On examination by researchers they were found to be made of terrestrial ingredients and tasted like cardboard. There was much publicity and Simonton regretted telling anybody about it." (Ilustration
Buhler.)
In 1961, Joe Simonton was a plumber; auctioneer and Santa Claus annually, for the Eagle River Chamber of Commerce. He reported his age as 55 or 60, depending on the intervie
At 11 a.m., April 18, Simonton was having a late breakfast when he heard a sound like that of a jet being throttled back, something like the sound of "knobby tires on wet pavement
went into the yard and saw a flying saucer drop out of the sky and hover over his farm. It was silver and "brighter than chrome," 12 feet in height and 30 feet in diameter. On one ed
were what appeared to be exhaust pipes, 6 or 7 inches in diameter.

The disc landed and a hatch opened. Inside were three darkskinned aliens, each about 5 feet tall and weighing about 125 pounds. They appeared to be between 25 and 30 years old
were dressed in dark blue or black knit uniforms with turtleneck tops, and helmetlike caps. They were cleanshaven, Simonton said, and "Italianlooking."

The aliens did not speak in his presence, but they had a silvery jug with two handles, heavier than aluminum but lighter than steel, about a foot high. It seemed to be made out of the
material as the craft. Simonton said it was "a beautiful thing, a Thermos juglike bottle quite unlike any jug I have ever seen here [on Earth]."

Through ESP or something, Simonton got the idea that the aliens wanted water. He left the visitors, filled the jug from the water pump in his basement, then returned to the craft and
the jug back. To do this, he had to brace himself against the UFO's hull and stretch up. From the subsequent Air Force report: "Looking into the [saucer] he saw a man 'cooking'
kind of flameless cooking appliance." The alien was preparing pancakes.

The interior of the UFO was dull black, even the three "extremely beautiful" instrument panels, and had the appearance of wrought iron. The contrast between the dark interior and s
exterior so fascinated Simonton that he later said that he "would love to have a room painted in the same way."
In return for the water, one of the aliens the only one with narrow red trim on his trousers presented Simonton with three of the pancakes, hot from the griddle. As he did so, the a
touched his own forehead, apparently a salute in thanks to Simonton for his help. Simonton saluted back. Each of the pancakes was roughly 3 inches in diameter and perforated
holes.
The head alien then connected a line or belt to a hook in his clothing and the hatch closed. The saucer rose about 20 feet and took off to the south, at a 45degree angle. Its wake left
of air that tossed the tops of nearby pine trees. The craft took only two seconds to disappear from view.
Simonton ate one of the pancakes, ostensibly in the interest of science. "It tasted like cardboard," he told the Associated Press. The other two pancakes he gave to Vilas County Judg
Frank Carter, a local UFO enthusiast. Carter, who called the aliens "saucernauts", said he believed Simonton's story since he could not think of any way in which the farmer
from a hoax. Carter's son, Colyn, today a lawyer in Eagle River, told me, "I recall as a youngster that my dad took it very seriously."
Judge Carter sent the pancakes to what was then the country's top investigative group, the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP). They refused the
opportunity to check it out. That put a damper on Judge Carter's plans; he had wanted to hold a seminar on the incident.
By this time, Simonton said, he was "irked by reporters making fun of the situation and laughing."
In response to all this, the Air Force dispatched its civilian UFO investigator, J. Allen Hynek. Hynek at the time was an astronomer at Northwestern University. He later became con
that UFOs are real, and founded his own investigative agency, which took over NICAP's files after that group folded. Thanks to Hynek, a Northwestern University committee
Force's Technical Intelligence Center analyzed one of Simonton's pancakes and found it to be made of flour, sugar and grease; it was rumored, however, that the wheat in the pancak
of an unknown type.
The official Air Force assessment of it all: This case is unexplained. "The only serious flaw in the story is the disappearance of the craft in 'two seconds.' The rest of the story did no
contain any outrages to physical concepts," reads the report. Simonton "answered questions directly, did not contradict himself, insisted on the facts being exactly as he stated
to accept embellishments or modifications. He stated he was sure that we wouldn't believe him but that he didn't care whether he was believed. He stated simply that this happened a
that was that."
The private Air Force response was unearthed after a little detective work. It comes from a UFO handbook for Air Force personnel, written by Lloyd Mallan and issued in a popular
edition by Science and Mechanics Publishing Co. In the book, Mallan refers to "J.S., a highly regarded, much respected citizen of Eagle River, Wis. a small rural community note
its attractiveness to tourists."
(Unless there are more spacepancake recipients in Eagle River than otherwise reported, we can safely see through Mallan's clever attempt at disguise and positively identify "J.S." a
Simonton.)
One Air Force investigator, according to Mallan, said that Simonton "appeared quite sincere to me, did not appear to be the perpetrator of a hoax." But an Air Force Aeronautical Sy
Division psychiatrist believed that Simonton had suffered a hallucination and subsequent delusion. The Air Technical Intelligence Center investigator said, "cases of this type could
injurious to the mental health of the individual if [he] became upset due to the experience. ...It was pointed out that experiences of this type, hallucinations followed by delusion, are
all uncommon and especially in rural communities."
Additionally, according to Mallan, the Air Force took to heart an unsubstantiated rumor circulated by, among others, Raymond Palmer, a publisher of pulp flyingsaucer and science
fiction magazines. Palmer reported to the Air Force his belief that Simonton had been hypnotized by an Eagle River real estate broker and was fed the pancake story so that he
repeat it and appear truthful. The motivation for this was economic, for the purpose of "a miniature Disneyland that is or was being built in the area."
repeat it and appear truthful. The motivation for this was economic, for the purpose of "a miniature Disneyland that is or was being built in the area."
To understand how incredible the rumor was, it is useful to look at the credibility of Palmer himself. One of his favorite theories was that flying saucers came from a secret hollowE
civilization ruled by a race called Detrimental Robots, which he abbreviated as "Deros." According to Palmer, the Deros manipulated humanity with their projected thought
primary source actually, his only source was a Pennsylvania welder who drew upon "racial memory" for his accounts. (There apparently is no mention in Air Force files of the
possibility that the Deros' thoughtray had been turned upon real estate agents, or Palmer, or even the Air Force, though I believe there is as much evidence for that as for an Eagle R
Disneyland.)
But based on such sound "evidence," the Air Technical Intelligence Center, which headquartered Air Force UFO investigations, let the matter drop. Publicly, it was a mystery. The
classified reason, revealed to Mallan, was that the Air Force would not pursue the matter "due to the possibility of causing [Simonton] embarrassment which might prove injurious t
health." This was an uncharacteristic kindness on the part of the Air Force; they regularly had been dismissing reports from pilots even their own as misidentifications or, worse,
hallucinations. "There are sufficient psychological explanations for reports not otherwise explainable," concluded the Psychology Branch of the Air Force's Aeromedical Laboratory
1949. Pilots, police, professors, besides regular folks all nuts. In the 60's, though, for a brief, shining moment, the Air Force took on a human face and it its collective tongue, ben
over backwards to carry the case of a parttime Santa and fulltime chicken farmer as unexplained. Some may smell a conspiracy here.
As for Simonton himself, in the end he was left with a bitter taste in his mouth, and it wasn't from the pancakes. "I haven't been able to work for three weeks," he told United Press
International. "I'm going to have to start making some money." He said that the next time he saw a flying saucer he would keep it to himself.
He lied. In 1970 Simonton was visited by Lee Alexander, a UFO enthusiast active in a Detroitbased investigative group. Simonton told Alexander that he had had more visits from
aliens, but he had not told anyone because of the way his first report had been received.

Few mentions of "contacts" were made and the only one receiving a featured presentation was the "Pancake" case of Joe Simonton. This is because FSR regular Bernard Finch had
Simonton by mail about his alleged meeting with three extraterrestrials in Eagle River, Wisconsin. Simonton, who always comes across as one of the openeyed "justplainJoes"
UFO history, wrote Finch a letter which then FSR printed. It's to the left. As you can read, Joe is claiming forthrightly that his experience was real and that he thinks he has good re
to believe that these critters were ETs. He is obviously a bit miffed that the USAF took three of his four pancakes, and has been tardy about their analysis. He thinks that the pancake

UFO on Australian Beach
Vaucluse Beach, a suburb of Sydney, would be the location of a close encounter of the eerie kind. On July 19, 1965, Dennis Crowe, a onetime technical artist for English aircraft
companies, would have the most unusual event of his life occur. A little after 5:00 P.M. Crowe was strolling along the beach, located not far from his home. The sea had been rough
day, with high winds and frequent rain showers, and Crowe was enjoying a calm between the storms. In the distance, he began to see a glow, and as he moved closer, he could make
the shape of a discshaped object, sitting on legs on the sandy beach.
Crowe guessed the object's diameter at 20 feet, and he could now see a glowing bluegreen hue rim around it, with the craft's two parts a dullish gray. The top appeared to be a trans
dome. The disc shaped craft was sitting silently. The only sound he heard at the time was barking from some dogs. They were barking directly at the object. Crowe had made his firs
observations at several hundred feet, and as he came to within about 60 feet, the object lifted itself from the ground. Crowe could now hear a sound..a sound like air being forced ou

The disc shaped UFO quickly climbed into the air, and within about 10 seconds, it had disappeared. The dogs were now silent. Crowe had been the only human to see the strange cr
Crowe made a report of what he saw, and a geologist came to make an inspection of the landing site. He stated that some type of object had definitely rested where Crowe had seen

The sighting gained enough publicity to bring in The Royal Australian Air Force. They offered a possible explanation for the event. They said that it could have been a "tornado." C
categorically rejected this theory. For lack of more information, no other research was forthcoming on this strange sighting. Crowe stood by his account of what he saw that day, and
other evidence is available to deny his claims. The UFO that landed on Vaucluse Beach that day remains an "unknown."

males and females alikewas very beautiful with silk like shoes with pointed, turned up toes. The humanoids cautiously approached Dawson, and gave him a kind of physical exami

"UFO Spotting Focuses On Deputy Creel"

When Madison County Sheriff's Deputy Kenneth Creel left on a routine patrol drive last Thursday evening, he didn't expect to find his attention completely focused on an Unidentif
Flying Object (UFO).

Since he reported the incident to the Mississippi Highway Patrol that evening lastweekhowever, Creel has now found even more national attention focused on himself.

"I know I'm not crazy .. I've always said I didn't believe in this stuff," said Creel. "I don't know what I saw, but I know I saw something . . It's just hard to describe what happened."

Deputy Creel first saw the object while driving down the Smith School Road four miles west of Flora, near the county line. He was with Constable James Luke at the time.

"It looked like an evening star or something," said Creel, "but it kept getting brighter and bigger."

Then, when the shape of the object began to form, Creel said he contacted the Mississippi Highway Patrol with his car radio equipment.

"I kind of thought it was an airplane flying low, or like it could have been."

But when the strange object came within "about 200 yards" of his car—"out across the field"—then, Creel said, "I stopped and cut my engine and my lights to listen."

What he heard was a whirring noise—"like a blender . . Like it was straining, when you first put ice in it"—and then the UFO started coming closer.

"The thing came right over the car," said Creel. "It came right to us, like it was being piloted."

How "the thing" got there is another question, because Creel says he could not tell if anything or anyone was inside.

"The thing just hovered over us, about 20 or 30 feet up, for more than a minute," said Creel, who at this time was looking straight up, from his patrol car window.

"I didn't get out, I wouldn't."

According to Deputy Creel, there was little way to tell much about the craft. "There was light coming out from little windows," he said. And the light apparently changed colors sev
times, from soft blue to red to green and other colors.

The UFO was reportedly about 30 to 40 feet in diameter, and perfectly round. "It didn't spin or anything. It just hoovered around there."

After about a minute, Creel began backing up his patrol car "about 100 yards, to a place where I could turn around."

By this time, however, Highway Patrolman Louis Younger drove up in his patrol car within a short distance of the UFO, and reported seeing the same object—with the same descrip
Creel had given.

"Then the thing just picked up and took off, north west, toward Satartia."

An unidentified object of the same general description was reported the same evening by other Flora residents, and Deputy Charles Bowering and Highway Patrolman Joe Chandler
others said they saw lights from an unidentified craft "from a distance."

Since the sighting last week, Creel has tried to play down the incident.

There have been no more reports, but dozens of inquiries have come to Creel and the Sheriff's Department for further investigation.

Some are "real cranks," according to one department official.

Others, apparently are more serious investigators.

But as far as Creel is concerned, he would rather not have the attention. "If I had known how much trouble it was going to cause, I wouldn't have reported the thing in the first place
said from the Sheriff's Office last Friday.

And moments later the telephone rang. It was another radio station wanting to talk to Deputy Kenneth Creel.

Belgium Triangle UFO Sightings
Date of sighting: October 1989
Location of sighting: Belgium
From October 1989 throughout 1990, hundreds of reports of lighted objects, frequently described as enormous and triangular in shape were recorded in Belgium. Air Force superson
16 jets chased these strange objects, which were simultaneously tracked by both airborne and ground radars. The Belgian Government cooperated fully with civilian UFO investigat
action without precedent in the history of government involvement in this field.
The Chief of Operations of the Royal Belgian Air Force, Colonel Wilfred De Brouwer (now Major General and Deputy Chief of the Belgian Air Force), set up a Special Task Force
to work closely with the Gendarmerie to investigate the sightings as soon as they were reported. Among the thousands of witnesses were many military and police officers, pilots,
scientists and engineers. The wave was documented by the Belgian Society for the Study of Space Phenomena (SOBEPS), a private organization from Brussels, which published tw
volumes on the UFO wave.
The first important case was a multiplewitness observation of a strange aircraft, reported by gendarmes on patrol near the town of Eupen, not far from the German border. Auguste
Meessen, professor of physics at the Catholic University in Louvain and a scientific consultant of SOBEPS, summarized the case:
“On November 29, 1989, a large craft with triangular shape flew over the town of Eupen. The gendarmes von Montigny and Nicol found it near the road linking AixlaChapelle an
Eupen. It was stationary in the air, above a field which it illuminated with three powerful beams. The beams emanated from large circular surfaces near the triangle’s corners. In the
of the dark and flat understructure there was some kind of 'red gyrating beacon.’ The object did not make any noise. When it began to move, the gendarmes headed towards a small
the area over which they expected the object to fly. Instead, it made a halfturn and continued slowly in the direction of Eupen, following the road at low altitude. It was seen by diff
witnesses as it flew above houses and near City Hall.”
Sightings continued to be logged by SOBEPS and the Gendarmerie during the fall and winter of 19891990. Most witnesses described seeing dark, triangular objects with white ligh
the corners and a red flashing light in the middle. Many of the objects were said to have hovered, with some of them then suddenly accelerating to a very high speed. Most of the ob
made no sound, but some were said to have emitted a faint humming like an electric motor.

Public interest in the wave reached its peak with a radar/visual and jet scramble incident on the night of March 3031, 1990. This scramble was seen and reported by hundreds of cit
A preliminary report prepared by Major P. Lambrechts of the Belgian Air Force General Staff was released to SOBEPS. The “Report concerning the observation of UFOs during the
of March 30 to 31, 1990,” includes a detailed chronology of events and dismisses several hypotheses such as optical illusions, balloons, meteorological inversions, military aircraft,
holographic projections, etc.
The incident began at 22:50 hrs. on March 30 when the Gendarmerie telephoned the radar “master controller at Glons” to report “three unusual lights forming an equilateral triangle
More gendarmes confirmed the lights in the following minutes. When the NATO facility at Semmerzake detected an unknown target at 23:49 hrs., a decision to scramble two F16 f
was made. The jets took off at 0:05 hrs. from Beauvechain, the nearest air base, on March 31 and flew for just over an hour. According to Major Lambrecht’s report:
“The aircraft had brief radar contacts on several occasions, [but the pilots]… at no time established visual contact with the UFOs… each time the pilots were able to secure a lock on
of the targets for a few seconds, there resulted a drastic change in the behavior of the detected targets… [During the first lockon at 0:13 hrs.] their speed changed in a minimum of t
from 150 to 970 knots [170 to 1,100 mph and 275 to 1,800 km./hr.] and from 9,000 to 5,000 feet [2,700 m. to 1,500 m.], returning then to 11,000 feet [3,300 m.] in order to change a
to close to ground level.”
The Electronic War Center (EWC) of the Air Force undertook a much more detailed technical analysis of the F16 computerized radar tapes, led by Col. Salmon and physicist M. G
Their study was completed in 1992 and was later reviewed by Professor Meessen.
Although many aspects of this case still remain unexplained, Meessen and SOBEPS have basically accepted the GilmardSalmon hypothesis that some of the radar contacts were re
“angels” caused by a rare meteorological phenomenon. This became evident in four lockons, “where the object descended to the ground with calculations showing negative [empha
added] altitude… It was evidently impossible that an object could penetrate the ground, but it was possible that the ground could act as a mirror.” Meessen explained how the high
velocities measured by the Doppler radar of the F16 fighters might result from interference effects. He points out, however, that there is another radar trace for which there is no
explanation to date. As for the visual sightings of this event by the gendarmes and others, Meessen suggests that they could possibly have been caused by stars seen under condition
“exceptional atmospheric refraction.”
In a recent interview, Major General De Brouwer summarized his reflections on this complex case:
“What impressed me the most were the witnesses, some of whom I know personally and convinced me that, in fact, something was going on. These were credible people and they to
clearly what they saw.
"We always look for possibilities which can cause errors in the radar systems. We can not exclude that there was electromagnetic interference, but of course we can not exclude the
possibility that there were objects in the air. On at least one occasion there was a correlation between the radar contacts of one ground radar and one F16 fighter. This weakens the t
that all radar contacts were caused by electromagnetic interference. If we add all the possibilities, the question is still open, so there is no final answer.”
The Belgian UFO wave yielded a rich volume of good quality cases and many videos and photographs. One strikingly clear photograph of a triangularshaped craft was taken at Pet
Rechain in early April 1990. As of 1994, it remained unexplained after numerous analyses, including a thorough computerized study at the Royal Military Academy. (see below)
Although public interest in the Belgian wave reached its peak in the 199091 period, SOBEPS was still documenting cases in late 1993. Marc Valckenaer listed the main characteris
the Belgian UFOs in the latest SOBEPS study. Various shapes such as round, rectangular and cigar were reported, but the wave was dominated by triangular objects. Some of their
characteristics included:
“Irregular displacement (zigzag, instantaneous change of trajectory, etc.).
"Displacement following the contours of the terrain.
"Varying speeds of displacement (including very slow motion).
"Stationary flight (hovering).
"Overflight of urban and industrial centers.
"Sound effects (faint humming… to total silence).”
Because the bulk of the Belgian sightings described triangularshaped objects, many European and American researchers and journalists speculated that these were caused by either
117A stealth fighters or some other revolutionary U.S. secret military aircraft. However, the only truly unusual characteristic of the F117 is its nearinvisibility to radar and infrared
detection it looks, flies and sounds like any other subsonic jet airplane. Similar claims about the presence of other American advanced airplanes are even harder to substantiate: th
Avenger II was never built, and the existence of the TR3A “manta” is unconfirmed. Neither has even been rumored to be able to fly in the manner reported for the Belgian UFO
Despite the fact that the secret military aircraft hypothesis has been denied officially over and over again by the Belgian Ministry of Defense and Air Force, as well as by the U.S.
Embassy in Brussels and the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency, some publications continue to champion the stealth fighter theory.
In a letter to French researcher Renaud Marhic, the Minister of Defense at the time of the UFO wave, Leo Delcroix, wrote:
“Unfortunately, no explanation has been found to date. The nature and origin of the phenomenon remain unknown. One theory can, however, be definitely dismissed since the Belgi
Armed Forces have been positively assured by American authorities that there has never been any sort of American aerial test flight.”

Guy Tossie and Will Begay, two Indian youths, were driving south on Highway 26 just outside Ririe on November 2, 1967, when, about 9:30 p.m., there was a sudden blinding flash
light in front of their car, followed by the abrupt appearance of a small, domed UFO. The dome was transparent and in it were seen two small, strangelooking occupants.
The car was brought to a stop Begay, driving, did not have to apply the brakes and the object hovered about five feet above the highway immediately ahead of them. It was about
feet wide, and flashed green and orange lights around the rim. The area was bathed in a vivid green light. (Compare this with Mrs. Moreland's report, above)
The dome opened as if hinged and one creature emerged, apparently floating to the ground. It was about three and a half feet tall, and on its back was a kind of pack that protruded a
and behind its head. Its face was oval and heavily pitted and creased. Two small, round eyes and a straight, slitlike mouth completed the facial features. Large ears stood high on th
hairless head.
Approaching the driver's side of the car, the alleged being opened the door and slid behind the wheel. Horrified, the two witnesses pushed over to the right. The car began to move
whether driven by the being or "towed" by the UFO was uncertain. It was taken well out into a field of stubble wheat, and the UFO kept a fixed position a few feet in front of it.
As the car stopped, Tossie, sitting next to the door, suddenly opened it and bolted, running for the nearby farmhouse of Willard Hammon about a quarter of a mile away. He later rep

Meanwhile, in the car, Begay cowered in the front seat in a state of nearshock while the first creature jabbered unintelligibly at him, making sounds that were high and rapid, "like a
The second being, who had apparently given up chasing Tossie, returned to the car. The first then got out, and the two beings "rose up and into the UFO," which then ascended in a z
path.
Meanwhile, at the home of Willard Hammon, Tossie could scarcely make himself understood by the astounded farmer and his family. After having calmed the Indian down, they
accompanied him back to the field, where they found the car. Begay was sitting nearly speechless with fright, his eyes tightly closed.
The engine was running and the lights were still on about 15 minutes had elapsed from the moment the young men had seen the flash. Hammon listened to their story and then foll
the frightened youths home in his car. Perplexed, he later stopped in a local bar and grill to see if he could learn anything more. While there, a county deputy sheriff stopped in and
Hammon told him the story. Later, both witnesses also came by and voluntarily told the deputy sheriff, in their own words, what had happened. State Police were summoned and an
investigation was begun. It was discovered that a number of local farmers had reported that their cattle had bolted during the evening for unknown reasons. Others claimed to have s
lights in the area.
The report was investigated for NICAP by C.R. Ricks, of Idaho Falls. During his investigation, he learned of a man who claimed that, on the same night, he had a similar encounter.
eventually tracked this man down and confirmed the report, although the witness was emphatic about not revealing his name, and was reluctant about discussing the details of his
encounter.


Canada Close Encounter and Radiation Burns
Close UFO Encounter: The Case of Stephen Michalak

On May 20, 1967, fiftyoneyearold Stephen Michalak was on vacation with his wife and children and he was searching for minerals along Falcon Lake, 80 miles east of Winnipeg
Manitoba, when a UFO appeared from the sky. Looking up he saw two glowing ovalshaped objects. One abruptly stopped its downward flight while the other continued, landing o
rock outcropping 160 feet away.
Michalak carefully approached the strange craft, which looked like a bowl with a dome on top, forty feet wide and 15 feet high.
He claims that he saw a gridlike exhaust vent on the side of it, which shot out a large amount of gas that set his clothes on fire. Mysterious burns also appeared on his body.
The UFO then went up into the sky and flew away. Stephen went to the hospital complaining of pain and sickness due to the encounter.

When doctors examined Michalak in a Winnipeg hospital a few hours later, they noted a dramatic burn pattern all across his chestexactly like the grid Michalak had described on th
UFO's underside.
Michalak's health problems continued and brought him to Minnesota's Mayo Clinic the next year.
A few weeks after the encounter, he took RCMP to the location of the landing site and a semicircle from it was still there.
To this day, no one has been able to explain what happened to him or what the UFO was.
Stephen died in 1999, but the burns remained on his body. Currently, the Canadian Government identifies the case as "unsolved".
Falcon Lake Manitoba — Stephen Michalak of Winnipeg was prospecting near Falcon Lake, Manitoba, when he encountered two UFOs. Canada’s most noteworthy and dr

Michalak, managed quickly to sketch the UFO (above) to be 12 feet high and about 35 feet across at the base. His sketches included slots surrounding a domelike projection at the

Chris Rutkowski has been researching the phenomenon for 25 years, compiling an annual Canadian survey of sightings.
He says records from the government, the RCMP and the United States show Manitoba has a long history of sightings.
The earliest documented encounter came in 1792 from two explorers in northern Manitoba, who say they saw several bizarre meteors crash into the ice.
Rutkowski says other sightings were reported by police, pilots and average people, who saw everything from unusual lights in the sky and flying saucers to silversuited aliens.
[ Falcon Lake, Manitoba, Canada | 1967
The sighting occurred Saturday, May 20, 1967, in an area near Falcon Lake, Manitoba, Canada, approximately 75 kilometres north of the American border in the rocky edge of the g
Canadian Shield. Stefan Michalak was an amateur geologist and had worked the area many times. In his pursuit in finding silver deposits he traveled from his home in Winnipeg to
Lake to try his luck. Around 12:15 p.m while working, Michalak was startled by the cackling of some geese, who were obviously disturbed by something. He looked up and was su
to see two cigarshaped objects with “bumps”. The objects now clearly a discshaped objects descent together from the SW at an angle of 15°20° above the horizon. One stopped
ft. above the ground; the other continued downward, and landed on the flat top of a rock outcropping 160 ft. from him.
The one in the air when departed was changing colours from a bright red to orange to grey and so on as it flew into the west, where it disappeared into the distance. Now focusing h
attention to the object on the ground, Michalak saw that it, too, was turning from bright red to orange to grey, until it finally was the colour of iridescence of hot stainless steel,
by a goldenhued glow. The craft had no markings. Intense purple light shone from apertures around the dome of the craft. For the next halfhour he stayed near the rock, making a s
of the object and noting various features. The craft was saucershaped, about 35 to 40 feet in diameter and approximately 8 feet high. Its upper cupola or dome was an additional thr
high. Michalak became aware of waves of warm air radiating from the craft, accompanied by the “smell of sulphur.” He also heard the whirring of what sounded like a fast electric m
and a hissing, as if air were being taken in.
He noticed that a hatch on the side of the craft had opened. Initially, he could see nothing inside, because the light was too bright after adjusting his googles he can see like beams of
purple light forming a column on the centre of the craft. Michalak approached to within 60 feet of the craft, and heard two humanlike voices, one with a higher pitch than the
was sure that the craft was an American experimental test vehicle, and walked closer to it, sarcastically asking, “Okay, Yankee boys, having trouble? Come on out and we’ll see wha
can do about it.” When no response was heard, he tried Russian, German, Italian, French, and Ukrainian. The voices stopped. Suddenly, three panels slid over the opening, sealing it
a camera shutter.” Michalak had noticed that the craft’s walls were about 20 in. thick, with a honeycombed look or something similar to what he described as “grate pattern”.
After the hatch closed, Michalak touched the craft with his gloved hand, burning the fingertips of his glove. The craft tilted slightly and started to spin rapidly. He was standing near
patterned ventilation or exhaust area on the craft’s side. When the craft started moving, a blast from this opening burned his upper abdomen and set his shirt and undershirt afire. He
off the shirts and threw them to the ground, stamping out the fire. His outer shirt was almost totally burned, but he retrieved the remains of his undershirt. A hole also was burned in
front of the top of the cap he was wearing. He was left with burns on his abdomen and sickened, apparently as a result of inhalation of vapours from the machine. He looked up in ti
see the craft depart like the first, and felt a rush of air as it ascended. The craft was turning orange and was clocking speed far exceeding known aircraft capability and disappeared i
direction from which it came
When the craft had left, Michalak noticed a strong smell of burning electrical circuits mixed with the original smell of sulphur. He walked over to where he had left his belongings, a
saw that the needle on his compass was spinning erratically. He went back over to the landing site and immediately felt nauseous and a surge of pain from a headache. He reached
highway and requested help from a constable of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) who was driving by. The constable refused to help. He also failed to get help at the pa
headquarters and went back to his motel were he stayed the night before. After several hours, he took a bus to Winnipeg. While waiting for the bus, he telephoned the Winnipeg Trib
request assistance, asking, at the same time, he said, that they give his experience no publicity. Michalak was met by his son, who took him to hospital for medical attention. The bu
his abdomen were diagnosed as superficial, and returned home. He continued to complain of nausea, headache, offensive odour from his lungs, lack of appetite, and rapid weight los
Two days after the alleged event, Michalak was attended to by a personal physician, whom he had not visited since Spring 1966. The following day he was taken to hospital to be ch
for radiation trauma by the hospital’s Department of Nuclear Medicine. A radiation pathologist found no evidence of the effects of radiation on the burned area, in his blood, or on h
clothing. He reported that the burn was thermal. A week after his sighting MIchalak was checked in the wholebody radiation counter at an Atomic Power Installation. This counter
detects and measures gamma radiation from isotopes in the body. The test showed no count above normal background. MIchalak said he lost a total of 22 lb. over the next seven day
had regained his strength and some weight 11 days after his sighting.]

The UFO Crash in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 is rightfully considered the paramount case thus far experienced by the public in the history of the UFO enigma. Yet, there was an
disc recovery disclosed to me in 1994, and it apparently occurred in the State of Arkansas in October/November, 1946.
A former United States Army Air Force Private stationed at Wright Patterson A. F. B., recently came out of the closet and disclosed his experience witnessing a recovered disc whic
being stored at building 18 (not yet called Hangar 18). The Private was delivering documents to the building when a friend in his unit, on guard duty asked him if he wanted to
strange craft stored in the building. He followed him inside and to his surprise, a disc shaped object was sitting on the deck. It was 15 feet in diameter and about 7 feet in width. He s
looked like two soup bowls sealed together. In the center was an 18 inch divider with 10 x 15 inch rectangular “windows” set about 8 to 10 inches apart circling the disc.
This sketch was drawn during the interview session with the witness.
The guard told the Private that several scientists were attempting to gain entry into the interior. They tried to use a diamond drill to penetrate the “glass” yet the drill had no effect on
clear material. There were no visual doors or entry hatches. No insignias, flags, no writing, no numbers. The material appeared to be a mold of one continuous material. It appeared
brushed aluminum yet it wasn’t. The body inside and out had no weld seams, no rivets, no apparent joining of the skin. They both looked into the interior and did not see anything o
apparent interest. No control panels, no seats, no hatches, no entities, nothing. A cylinder was in the center and its wall was about 6 feet from the window. The cylinder was about 3
diameter and possibly housed the power unit
The Private was a Clerk Specialist assigned to interview and classify new recruits to their specialty school on base. The base Commander was Colonel Nathan Twining who would y
later be the Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff at the Pentagon.

Police Officer Herbert Schirmer Abduction
Date: December 3, 1967
Location: Ashland, Nebraska, United States
Sgt. Schirmer was on patrol when he encountered a UFO hovering above the road, which shot up when he flashed his high beams at the object. Soon, Schirmer realized he had
experienced "missing time", and a red welt appeared on his neck. Hypnotic sessions revealed that the occupants of the landed craft came and took Schirmer aboard, and communica
with him through some form of mental telepathy. They told him that they would visit him twice more and that some day he would "see the universe".

1967 Alien Abduction Case of a Nebraska Police Officer
On December 3, 1967, around 2:30 a.m., in the vicinity of Ashland, Nebraska, police sergeant Herbert Schirmer, 22, noticed some red lights along Highway 63. Thinking that it was
stopped truck he approached and shown his high beams on it. Soon he realized it was no truck. Instead it was a discshaped object with a shiny, polished aluminum looking surface,
catwalk that went around it. The red lights, which were blinking, were shining out from windows in the object. The UFO appeared to be a mere 6 to 8 feet above the road, and was
hovering in the air with a slight tilt. Then the object began to slowly ascend, making a siren kind of noise, and issuing a flamelike display from the underside. Sticking his head out
window, Sgt. Schirmer watched the UFO pass nearly overhead. Then suddenly it shot up and out of sight.
Schirmer then got out of the police car and, with a flashlight in hand, inspected the surface of the road where the object had hovered so low to the ground. After this he drove to the
station and wrote in the log book, “Saw a flying saucer at the junction of highways 6 and 63. Believe it or not!” He was puzzled to notice that it was now 3 a.m., as the sighting
lasted no more than ten minutes. As the morning wore on, Schirmer was to suffer a headache, a “weird buzzing” in his head, and would discover that he had a “red welt” on his neck
was about two inches long and approx. half an inch wide, and was located on the “nerve cord” below one of his ears.
A few hours later, Chief Bill Wlaskin would visit the alleged encounter site and find a small metallic artifact. Chemical analysis revealed it was composed of iron and silicon. Invest
from the Condon project out of the University of Colorado speculated that it was probably “ordinary corroded earthly waste.”
Later, under hypnosis, Schirmer would recall for investigators how humanoid beings, between 4 1/2 to 5 feet tall, escorted him from his car and into the ship, where the “leader” gav
a tour and explained various things about themselves and their mission on earth.
The entities had slightly slanted “catlike” eyes (that didn’t blink), graywhite skin, long and thin heads, with flat noses and slitlike mouths. They wore silvergray uniforms, gloves, a
helmets (which had a small antenna on the left side around their ear), and at the left breast of each suit they had the emblem of a winged serpent. Schirmer had the impression that th
small antennas were somehow a part of their communication process with him that part of their contact with him was mental and part of it was physical.
A few years back, I discussed this case with noted UFO author Brad Steiger, who was involved in the initial hypnotic regression work with patrolman Schirmer. He recalled: “He w
describing, ‘Well I’m walking here,’ ‘Well I’m walking there.’ We asked him to make certain sketches and so forth, and then all of a sudden the control seemed to slip away instantl
guess I shouldn’t say slip away. It was an abrupt kind of thing, and he began to speak as though he were one of the occupants and said he would be, from time to time, returning in o
way or another to keep tabs on Herb.”
What did Brad make of this? “Either it’s a case of extreme identification or some sign of hypnotic contact that we seem to uncover as we probe deeper and deeper into the unconscio
he replied.
Psychologist R. Leo Sprinkle of Wyoming, had also been involved in hypnotic regression work with patrolman Schirmer at the University of Colorado. He offered, “In a few cases (
Herb Schirmer) the UFO witness claimed to experience ‘mental communication’ with UFO occupants at the moment of the interview. I have no way of knowing whether the claim
‘true’ or whether the observer had been ‘programmed’ to experience such a feeling when hypnotic time regression procedures were followed; however, to the person, the experience
‘real.’”
So what did Dr. Sprinkle think? “I believe that each person is ‘monitored’ by spiritual guides, but in regard to the UFO contactee, the monitoring process seems to be unusually inte
he stated. “Perhaps someday, we will learn if the prophecies about “good” vs “evil” and predictions of earth changes....are related to this monitoring process.”

Police constable Alan Godfrey's abduction in West Yorkshire, England
Date: November 28, 1980
Location: Todmorden, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Police officer Alan Godfrey was on routine patrol when he encountered a metallic disc with a dome and a row of windows. Suddenly, there was a burst of light, and he found himsel
yards farther down the road, and the UFO was gone. Under hypnosis later, Godfrey recalled being struck by a beam of light which floated him into the craft, and meeting a humanl
being named Joseph, whose clothing was very Biblical in nature. Aboard the craft, he was physically examined and asked questions.

In November and December 1980, the eastern side of Britain was experiencing a major UFO sighting wave. There were chases of UFOs by police cars near the coast, a UFO that ov
an oil rig in the North Sea, and the wave culminated in the famous events on the East Anglian coast at Rendlesham Forest. Just a month before these landings beside those NATO ai
bases, one of the most impressive alien abduction cases took place in the small Penninemill town of Todmorden, West Yorkshire, right in the centre of Britain's most active window
known locally as "UFO Alley".
Police Constable Alan Godfrey was on patrol on the night of 28 November 1980. Just before dawn he drove along Burnley Road on the edge of Todmorden looking for some cows t
had been reported missing. They were only found after sunup, mysteriously relocated in a rainsoaked field without hoofmarks to indicate their passage.
Giving up his nocturnal hunt, Godfrey was about to go back to base to sign off duty when he saw a large mass a few hundred yards ahead. At first, he thought it was a bus coming to
him that took workers to their jobs in town and that he knew passed about 5:00 a.m. But as he approached, he realized that it was something very strange. It was a fuzzy oval that
such speed and hovered so low over the otherwise deserted highway that it was causing the bushes by the side to shake. The police officer stopped, propped onto his windscreen a p
was in the patrol car to make sketches of any road accidents, and drew the UFO. Then there was a burst of light, and the next thing he knew he was driving his car again, further alo
Burnley Road, with no sign of the UFO.
Godfrey turned around and examined the spot where the UFO had hovered. The road was very wet as it had rained heavily earlier in the night. But just at this one location was a circ
patch where the roadway had been dried in a swirled pattern. Only when back at the police station did he realise that it was a little later than he had expected although any missing
was probably no greater than 15 minutes from estimates later taken on site.

November 1980 Todmorden, West Yorkshire, England by Police Constable Alan Godfrey
Concerned as to possible ridicule, Godfrey at first chose not to make an official report, but changed his mind later that day when he discovered he was not alone. After breakfast tha
morning, a driver who had been on Burnley Road three miles further out at Cliviger reported seeing a brilliant white object and contacted Todmorden police. The time matched that
Alan Godfrey's. Furthermore, a police patrol from an adjacent force (Halifax) had been engaged in a stakeout for stolen motorcycles on the moors of the Calder Valley and had witn
brilliant bluewhite glow descending into the valley towards Todmorden shortly before Godfrey experienced his close encounter. Their story, when it reached Todmorden police stat
formed a second match.
Encouraged by this news Godfrey filed an official report, but was surprised when police chose to release the story to the local newspaper the following week. From here, UFOlogist
discovered the case and a lengthy investigation was mounted by a Manchesterbased UFO group.
Although Alan Godfrey had no further conscious recall of the missing time, he did have increasingly confused memory of the sequence of events surrounding the sighting (with an
unexplained image of seeing himself outside the car during the sighting). There was also puzzling physical evidence. His policeissue boots were split on the sole, as if he had been
dragged along the floor and they had caught on something. He also reported a previous history of seeing other strange things and having experienced at least one earlier time lapse a
youth—factors that UFOlogists have come to recognise as common with abduction cases.
When sure that all conscious testimony had been recorded, Godfrey agreed to be hypnotically regressed by a Manchester psychiatrist eight months after the incident. He eventually
several other sessions with different therapists, and his recall in later sessions was videotaped. The doctor refused permission to the UFO group for the first session to be recorded.
The hypnotic testimony is very odd, and Godfrey was never to be sure what really happened. Under regression he told of the bright light stopping the car engine, causing his radio a
police handset both to be filled with static and then to be swamped by blinding light as he lost consciousness. His next recall was of being inside a strange room, more like a house t
spaceship, complete with a most unexpected large black dog. He was studied by a heavily bearded man who telepathically conveyed that his name was "Yosef" and whose clothing
very Biblical in nature. Assisting Yosef were several small robotlike creatures "the size of a fiveyearold lad" and with "a head shaped like a lamp". They are reminiscent of the "G
of UFO lore; although with major differences.
Godfrey was supposedly asked questions, told that he "knew" Josef, and was promised a later encounter. But apparently he was not subjected to the more familiar indignities of abdu
stories (especially from the US), such as bodily fluid samples and rectal probes. Although there were periods of missing memory, the hypnotic recall that did emerge was a curious h
of mythic images, UFO case elements and dream like sequences.
When asked his opinion as to the reality status of this hypnotic testimony, Alan Godfrey was refreshingly honest. He told me he was certain that the UFO encounter was real, but he
not determine whether the story offered by hypnosis was a dream, a fantasy, reality, or a mixture of all three.
Unhappily, Alan Godfrey suffered terribly after this encounter. When I first wrote up the investigation (just before the regression hypnosis began) for Flying Saucer Review magazin
1981, I deliberately changed his identity to help protect him; although this was probably futile because the story had already been featured in the local press under Godfrey's real nam
However, despite my refusal to assist them, a tabloid reporter traced the witness and devoted a frontpage banner headline article to the story — read by millions over the Sunday lu
which led to the officer being called to explain himself before his superiors. He was forced to undergo medical investigation to determine his "status", but was pronounced psycholo
fit and healthy. Yet after some years feeling that he would never be allowed to forget his sighting, he took advice to honorably resign over an unrelated physical injury incurred durin
incident in which he bravely intervened to avert a crime.
Todmorden, both before 1980 and in the years since, has been a hotbed of alien contact activity with several other major encounters having been investigated, including another abd
of a truck driver from Burnley Road only a little further out of Todmorden and on the same highway.

Brightly lit silvery colored craft during period of heavy UFO activity

Low Lights in Louisiana
By Ted Peters
The first two months of 1977 have brought heavy UFO activity to the state of Louisiana and eastward. On the night of January 15, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Digangi of Chalmette watched
bright light hovering near a water tower just off Judge Perez Highway. They were driving west and through the windshield viewed what appeared to be three lights chained together
Digangi told me that it seemed "very close" and remained steady at an altitude of approximately 500 feet for a ten to fifteen minute period. The following Tuesday, January 18, their
teenaged daughter and girlfriend saw the same object near their home on Jackson Blvd.
On Friday night, January 21, two nutria hunters, Irwin Menesses and Robert Melerine, were given a dramatic fright when an intensely bright object which emitted heat closed in on
While motoring along a bayou near the Yscloskey Shell refinery, the giant light dropped down on them to an altitude of 65 to 75 feet. Melerine's hair stood on end and the boat stop
Although the outboard engine continued to churn water, the boat remained stationary. The men ceased to move — although they could speak — as if their bodies were being held in
suspended animation. When the light suddenly left, the boat lurched forward with such force that the men were thrown down in the boat. The UFO could be seen for another half ho
making a sort of inspection tour of the Shell refinery and the Yscloskey water tower.
Two different sightings have been reported for the following night, Saturday, January 22. Two brothers, Mark and Damian Boudreaux, stood on the porch of Mark's house on Milan
and watched the maneuvers of a reddishorange light over the western part of the city. It was first seen hovering. Then it moved southward, stopped, reversed direction, and headed
Damian had worked at the airport and knows how conventional aircraft appear at night. This object, he told me, "was much bigger and brighter and did things airplanes cannot do."
On the same night and to the east of New Orleans, a near landing was witnessed in Chalmette. A car full of six, three adults and three children, turned north off Judge Perez on to Je
Lafitte Parkway. Through the left windows they watched a domeshaped craft with red and yellow lights and what were thought to be propellers which danced about in the sky. The
witnesses parked in the middle of the boulevard to watch the show through the windshield. The machine bounced and dipped behind the trees only 2,000 feet in front. After 10 minu
angled sharply and .dipped down into the forest for the last time. The frightened group drove home in awe, deciding to tell no one. It was not until February 12, that another UFO fie
investigator, James La Chute, and I were called in. An examination of the area revealed no landing traces.
On Tuesday night, January 25, Mrs. Claire Wetta spotted a mysterious glowing light just north of the 110 expressway near City Park. It was a cigarshaped object, longer and narro
than the Good year Blimp and it emitted two distinctly different shades of bright green. She described it to me as "phosphorus looking . . . and long and bubbly . . . and glowing." Af
seconds, it suddenly blinked out. It did not fly away but simply turned off. It was too high to have slipped behind a tree or building.
On Tuesday, February 8, Mrs. Gayle Rodriguez and her son, Brian, watched a similar UFO show by a rather differently shaped object. Driving east on St. Bernard highway they saw
brightly lit silvery colored craft which flew across the highway in front of them and began a course parallel to the road.
Its movement was in uneven spurts, shooting forward and then stopping. On one stop it tilted toward the car. It was shaped like an upside down saucer with a flat bottom and a dome
top in the middle. Near the bottom edge could be seen a row of individual lights which merged into a single blur when rotating. The lights changed color, alternating between blue, g
and bright white. Atop the dome were three lights on the ends of which appeared to be antenna: two small white lights, and one larger red light.
The following night, February 9, an unusual object was sighted east of the Louisiana border in Madison County, Mississippi. Deputy Sheriff Ken Creel along with Deputy James Lu
responded to a call that a UFO was seen in the area five miles west of the town of Flora. They were driving along Coxferry Road toward the house of Fred Grant when suddenly an
unidentified aircraft flew to a position directly above the car. It hovered at an altitude of 20 to 50 feet. It shone a bright light and caused radio communication interference.
It was watched from further away by five independent witnesses one of whom was Hubert Roberts of the Flora Police Department. Roberts' police car was standing on a gravel road
the main highway near Bogue Chitto Creek. The officer blinked his headlights as a signal, and the UFO reportedly blinked two of its lights in apparent response. Mr. Roberts told
investigator La Chute that it was "sort of round" with portholes and "very bright". When it departed, it shot off with great speed.
And there is one more. Two Navy Patrol Gunboats, the USS Tacoma and the USS Welch, were sailing to New Orleans for Mardi Gras on February 17 when they encountered a stran
light about 4:00 A.M. Their position was 85° 50' x 25° 45', 140 miles west of Ft. Meyers, Florida, when the light approached them from the west. I talked to the officers on the bridg
both ships and was told the light appeared white at first. It then grew in intensity and turned amber. Then all of a sudden it blinked out.
A few observations are in order. Although UFO activity seems to have been quite heavy, the individual sightings together do not reveal any pattern. Independent confirmation of som
the cases have come in, but there seems to be no relation between cases other than geographical proximity. Witnesses in no two cases seem to report the same object; each object's
description is quite different from the others'. However, all of these are night sightings — some are close encounters type I — and it is more difficult to see shapes in the dark. It wo
premature to rule out the possibility that the same craft was seen more than once.
We have here such a large number of sightings in such a short period of time that it appears we have a flap on our hands. Skeptics argue that flaps are caused by the media, that is, re
of UFO's on TV and in the newspapers cause others to begin to see things in the sky. It is important to note that the media has played no role in this flap. There has been only modes
reporting of UFO's in the news. The people who claim to have witnessed mysterious flying objects have been for the most part unaware that others have too. Is there really somebod
something out there that has come to visit us?

Giant Aliens Floating In Crystal UFO Sphere Encounter
Giant humanoids Canary Isles, June 22 1976.
Classification (Hynek): CE2.
The giants in the sphere, Canary Islands, Spain 1976

Location: Galdar Canary Islands Spain
Date: June 22 1976
Time: 2230
Dr. Francisco Julio Padron, a physician, was being driven to Galdar, on Grand Canary Island, when he and his chauffeur saw a spherical object “about the size of a 3story buildi
yards off the road. It was of grayish blue color, but transparent—we could see the stars through it.” Near the center of the sphere were 2 figures well over 6 ft tall, who were eithe
color or dressed in bright red; they had human faces with large eyes, and their heads gave off a glow. They wore cloth like helmets hiding their ears. On the ends of their arms th
“winglike appendages that they moved slowly, like hands.” The car’s radio went out, and the witnesses felt an intense cold. Then the object began to rise, apparently growing larg
did so. Many other witnesses, including 3 astronomers at the observatory, saw the object take off; it approached the observatory, then made a sharp 90degree turn and took off
streak of light.” Onions in the field over which the UFO hovered were found later to have been “cooked” as if by burning.
One of the most bizarre reports of unusual phenomena occurred in 1976 in the Spanish Canary Islands. Although the case features a most extraordinary description of aliens and the
craft, the occurrence is extremely reliable in that it includes multiple witness reports which agreed in all aspects of the case.
The phenomenon began on the night of June 22, 1976, as residents of Tenerife, La Palma, and La Gomera began reporting the sighting of unusual lights in the sky.
These lights and their maneuvers were different from anything residents of the area had seen before. Newspaper headlines the next morning proclaimed that "thousands of people" h
witnessed a "spectacular phenomena" which lasted "twenty minutes." The most sensational aspect was the sighting of the aforementioned "sphere" occupied by strange alien beings
Three days later, the Commanding General of the Canary Island Air Zone named an "Investigative Adjutant" to make sense of the events. His findings were forwarded by a Spanish
Force General to journalist J. J. Benitez in 1976, and the details of the case quickly reached beyond the scope of the Islands to the outside world. Benitez's investigation would be th
of his book, "UFOs: Official Documents of the Spanish Government."
The case would regain momentum in 1994, when files of the investigation were released as part of the unveiling of Spanish records, a type of "Freedom of Information" act. The 19
report was massive, containing over one hundred pages of testimony, evaluations, drawings, and more.
The official Air Force report of the incident was headlined by depositions of fourteen witnesses. A type of standard was established with witness reliability based on social status. A
doctor's report was considered a high priority, whereas a common laborer's report was given little, if any, weight.
In this particular case, this unfair standard did not take away from the acceptance of the facts, since all involved were in full agreement as to what they saw. The report was very deta
and presented chronologically.
The initial report of the Canary Island UFO came from the Navy's armed escort ship, the "Atrevida." The ship was located off the coast of Fuerteventura Island. The ship's captain g
detailed report of what he and his crew observed at 9:27 P.M. on June 22.
The entire crew saw an extremely bright yellowblue light moving from the shore in the direction of the ship, located three and a half miles at sea. Several of the crewmen at first th
they were seeing a conventional aircraft with its landing lights on. The lights soon faded, and a type of beam began to rotate, similar to a lighthouse effect.
Afterwards, an intense halo of yellow and blue could be seen from the fantastic craft. Amazingly, the crew watched the craft for a full forty minutes. The craft seemed to be playing
with its lights, as they constantly changed from one form to another. Even though the light show was observed for a long period of time, no signature was evident on the ship's
flying craft.
Actual transcriptCaptain of Atrevida.
"At 21:27 (Z) hrs. on 22 June, we saw an intense yellowishbluish light moving out from the shore towards our position. At first we thought it was an aircraft with its landing lights o
Then, when the light had attained a certain elevation (15 18 degrees), it became stationary.
The original light went out and a luminous beam from it began to rotate. It remained like this for approximately two minutes. Then an intense great halo of yellowish and bluish ligh
developed, and remained in the same position for 40 minutes, even though the original phenomenon was no longer visible.
"Two minutes after the great halo, the light split into two parts, the smaller part being beneath, in the center of the luminous halo, where a blue cloud appeared and the part from wh
the bluish nucleus had come, vanished. The upper part began to climb in a spiral, rapid and irregular, and finally vanished.
None of these movements affected the initial circular halo in any way, which remained just the same the whole time, its glow lighting up parts of the land and the ocean, from which
could deduce that the phenomenon was not very far away from us, but was close."
Only a few minutes later, this same object was seen by residents of Canary Island proper. The bulk of the sightings were by citizens of three villages; Galdar, Las Rosas, and Agaete
cross section of professions were involved; medical doctor, schoolteacher, farmer, taxi driver, and housewife, among others.
A thorough search of records by the Investigator Adjutant determined that there were no reports of "aerial traffic or military exercises at the time of the reports" that could possibly
account for the sightings of the unknown object . The Adjutant, for the sake of clarity, divided the investigation into two different categories.
One was the larger craft observed by ship crewmen and others, and the second the smaller globe with the aliens aboard. By his own admission, and consistent with human nature, th
Adjutant had no problem believing the reports of the larger craft, but had reservations accepting the orb since occupants were observed which were not consistent with human being
The Investigator General's last word on the subject was: "The fact that a very strange and peculiar aerial phenomena occurred on the night of 22 June is a true and proven fact, as
incredible as its behavior and conditions may seem."
The incredible account of the sphere was submitted by Doctor Francisco Padron Leon, who lived in the city of Guia. His report is the most voluminous of the entire investigation. H
background was thoroughly investigated, and he was found to be an upstanding, sane professional, whose word was considered truthful.
Padron had been summoned to make a house call, and commissioned a cab to take him to the location; the town of Las Rosas. As they rode along, the doctor and cab driver were en
in light conversation. Suddenly, the car lights pointed out a slightly luminous object in the shape of a sphere.
The object was either landed, or hovering just above the ground. The object was made of a totally transparent and crystallinelike material. The doctor and driver both observed star
through the sphere. The object was bluish in color, with a radius of about 100 feet. The lower part of the orb contained a platform of aluminumlike material with three consoles. At
side of the center there were two huge figures from eight to ten feet tall. They were dressed in red, and always faced each other.
The beings were humanoid in shape, with large heads covered with a type of helmet. The doctor, hardly believing his own eyes, asked for confirmation from his cab driver.
"Are you seeing what I am?" he asked.
The driver exclaimed, "My God! What is that?"
The cab was only a short distance from the patient's house, and upon arriving, the doctor observed a type of bluish smoke coming from a tube rising through the center of the object
The doctor stated:
"We were talking about hunting... as we entered the last part of the road, the car lights pointed at a slightly luminous sphere that was stationary and very close to the ground, althou
can't say for sure if it was touching it.
It was made of a totally transparent and crystallinelike material, since it was possible to see through it the stars in the sky; it had an electric blue color but tenuous, without dazzlin
had a radius of about 30 m. [100 ft.], and in the lower third of the sphere you could see a platform of aluminumlike color as if made of metal, and three large consoles.
At each side of the center there were two huge figures of 2.50 to 3 m. [8.5 to 10 ft.] tall, but no taller than 3 m. [10 ft.], dressed entirely in red and facing each other in such a way th
always saw their profile."
"Then I observed that some kind of bluish smoke was coming out from a semitransparent central tube in the sphere, covering the periphery of the sphere's interior without leaking o
at any moment.
Then the sphere began to grow and grow until it became huge like a 20story house, but the platform and the crew remained the same size; it rose slowly and majestically and it seem
heard a very tenuous whistling."
The sphere grew to an enormous size as it began to ascend into the sky. The doctor ran into the house, and told the family about what he had seen. Running outside, they observed th
which was now extremely high in the sky. It reached an enormous speed, accelerating toward Tenerfie.
Finally it dissolved into a smaller size, and disappeared. Another witness, a lady who was a relative of the patient, was watching television when suddenly the screen went blank, an
dogs began to bark outside. Running to a window, she saw the doctor's cab, and the blue sphere above it. She also noted that the sphere was transparent, with two beings inside.
she closed the windows and doors, and began to pray.
There were several other sightings of a similar nature throughout the year of 1976 on the Island. The final "official" report was ambiguous at best.
The observance of the craft by all who saw it was accepted as genuine, although no "earthly" explanation was offered for its unique look and behavior.
On the other hand, although the witnesses of the smaller orb with aliens were classified as totally reliable, the actual presence of the beings was questioned. In other words, the witn
were telling the truth, but what they saw was too far fetched to believe.
No other explanation was forthcoming on an official level, and the Canary Island phenomenon remains today as an authentic, well documented sighting of an unidentified flying cra
occupants.

JAL 1628: Capt. Terauchi's Marvellous "Spaceship"

A recent email circulating among certain UFO researchers asked, where is the best online statement of the skeptic's position on the famous JAL 1628 sighting by Capt. Terauchi o
17, 1986? Despite it being one of the most celebrated cases in the recent UFO literature, it turns out that there wasn't a lot. To remedy this perceived lack, I scanned all of
clippings and other papers in my file on the case, and placed it on the Historical Documents page of my Debunker.com website. It contains original press clippings from when the ca
first reported, a press release by CSICOP, FAA information, and a "Summary White Paper" about the case by Philip J. Klass. (Page numbers given refer to this PDF document. MUF
turns out, has scanned some 377 pages relating to this case, now available in John Greenwald's The Black Vault).
Capt. Terauchi (from People Magazine).
Japan Air Lines Captain Kenju Terauchi describes the encounter with three UFOs over Alaska.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported on December 30, 1986, "The crew of a Japan Air Lines cargo jet claimed that a UFO with flashing white and yellow strobe lights followe
across the Arctic Circle in route from Reykjavik, Iceland, to Tokyo" (p.1). On January 1, 1987, that paper reported, "A veteran pilot whose UFO sighting was confirmed on
said the thing was so enormous that his Japan Air Lines cargo jet a Boeing 747 was tiny compared with the mysterious object" (p.2). In fact, Terauchi said that the object was
than an “aircraft carrier.” Feeling the heat, the FAA soon reopened its investigation of the incident. "The reason we're exploring it is that it was a violation of airspace," sai
spokesman Paul Steucke. "That may sound strange, but that's what it was" (p. 4).

The FAA reviewed its data, and found reasons to doubt its earlier statements. By Jan 8, the press was reporting,
The FAA has concluded that the unidentified object on radar now appears to be an unexplained split image of the JAL Boeing 747 and not a separate object .... The review o
radar data indicates that no second object was present and represents a reversal of earlier FAA statements that a second object was confirmed on radar. "The bottom line is tha
this tells us that we don't have any radar confirmation of the object that the pilot said he saw," Steucke said (p. 5).
The scanned documents from MUFON include a detailed technical analysis from the FAA of the “uncorrelated primary return” on the radar (p. 5053).
Philip J. Klass investigated, and soon CSICOP issued a Press Release, written by Klass (p. 7):

At the time the UFO incident began near Ft. Yukon, the JAL airliner was flying south in twilight conditions so that an extremely bright Jupiter (2.6 magnitude
would have been visible on the pilot's lefthand side, where he first reported seeing the UFO, according to Klass. Jupiter was only 10 degrees above the horizon,
appear to the pilot to be at roughly his own 35,000 ft. altitude. Mars, slightly lower on the horizon, was about 20 degrees to the right of Jupiter but not a
bright....Although the very bright Jupiter, and less bright Mars, had to be visible to JAL Capt. Kenjyu Terauchi, the pilot never once reported seeing either only
Many of the colorful details of the incident carried by the news media, largely based on the sixweekold recollections of the pilot of JAL Flight 1628, are contradicted
by a transcript of radio messages from the pilot to FAA controllers while the incident was in progress. For example, news media accounts quoting the 747 pilot said that when
he executed a 360 degree turn, the UFO had followed him around the turn. But this claim is contrary to what the pilot told FAA controllers at the time.
An interesting historical footnote: in the press release, Klass credits "astronomers Nick Sanduleak and C. B. Stephenson, of Case Western Reserve University, in Cleveland, fo
valuable assistance in computing the positions and bearings of bright celestial bodies relative to the 747 airliner at the time of the incident." In February 1987, the month after th
release was issued, southern hemisphere astronomers discovered Supernova 1987a, in the Large Magellanic Cloud. It was the brightest supernova seen from Earth since 1604
visible to the naked eye. Researchers discovered that the progenitor star (before the Supernova explosion) was a blue giant star known as Sanduleak 69° 202. Yes, that Nick
(19331990). He catalogued the stars of the Large Magellanic Cloud. He also discovered Sanduleak's Star, a very unusual object in the Large Magellanic Cloud, with a "giant,
collimated bipolar jet." In his spare time he attended CSICOP conferences, where I met him several times, a very friendly fellow. Unfortunately, he died of a cardiac arrest a few
after this.
The FAA issued an indepth report, with primary references and interviews included. Unfortunately, the FAA charged $194.30 for the complete package, including all written r
photographs, and all tape recordings. It wasn't exactly a bestseller: not too many people were sufficiently interested to send in almost $200 for information about a UFO report. In
sounds very much like the FAA constructed this expensive package to deter the many persons badgering them for information on the case. But that didn't deter Philip J. Klass.

Capt. Terauchi's UFO, as he reported it
Capt. Terauchi's drawing of the huge object.
Klass wrote an article in The Skeptical Inquirer, Summer 1987: "FAA Data Sheds New Light on JAL Pilot's UFO Report." It was reprinted in the book, The UFO Invasion
Books, 1997), Kendrick Frazier, Barry Karr, and Joe Nickell, eds.
Klass wrote,

The FAA data package reveals Terauchi to be a "UFO repeater," with two other UFO sightings prior to November 17, and two more this past January, which normally raises
"caution flag" for experienced UFO investigators. The JAL pilot is convinced that UFOs are extraterrestrial and when describing the light(s) Terauchi often used
spaceship or mothership.
Illustration of the object, with the Boeing 747 airplane on the right. (International UFO Reporter)
During his January 2 interview with FAA officials, Terauchi said that he believed the "mothership" intentionally positioned itself in the "darkest [easterly] side" of the sky
because "I think they did not want to be seen." This enabled the UFO to see the 747 "in front of the sunset and visible for any movement we make." In his report to the FAA
he expressed the hope that "we humans will meet them in the new future"... [On January 11] he again reported spotting unusual lights in roughly the same area while on
repeat flight from Paris to Anchorage...
[Terauchi] always failed to mention that two other aircraft in the area that were vectored into the vicinity of the JAL 747 to try to spot the UFO he had been reporting wer
unable to see any such object... [Flight Engineer Yoshio Tsukuba] "was not sure whether the object was a UFO or not"... When the copilot [Takanori Tamefuji] was asked if h
could distinguish these lights "as being different" from a star, he replied: "No."
Bruce Maccabee has written a very long report (as is his habit) on the JAL 1628 UFO. If you want to read every detail of Capt. Terauchi's account, it is here. Maccabee wrote,
CSICOP was not finished with the case. Evidently even Phil Klass could see that his JupiterMars explanation had failed. In the Summer, 1987 issue of the Skeptical Inquire
he published a new analysis. [Actually, Jupiter was still part of Klass' analysis, but the fainter Mars was not.] This time the lights were explained as reflections of moonligh
from the clouds and “turbulent ice crystals.” (Recall that the air crew reported thin clouds below them.) According to Klass the turbulent ice crystals “could have generated
flamecolored lights” and “this would also explain why the undulating lights would periodically and suddenly disappear and then reapper as cloud conditions ahead changed.
When the aircraft finally outflew the ice clouds and the initial ‘UFO’ disappeared for good (the Captain) would search the sky for it, spot Jupiter further to the left and
conclude it was the initial UFO.” Klass attributed the airplane radar sighting to “an echo from thin clouds of ice crystals.”
KLASS’s explanation verges on scientific garbage. There is no reason to suppose that moonlight reflected off ice crystals in the clouds would generate “flame colored
lights.” Klass’ explanation certainly could not account for the heat which Terauchi felt on his face. Nor would it explain the distinct arrays of flames or lights associated with
two independently flying objects that appeared ahead of the plane and ABOVE for many minutes (the clouds were reported to be below the plane).
While I tend to agree that moonlight reflecting off clouds would probably not make a very good "UFO" display, there are so many sources for 'lights in the sky' (including 'lights
ground,' which Terauchi agreed with the FAA was an explanation for his January 11 UFO sighting) that once the main "UFO" has been demoted from a giant "mothership"
lights,' it no longer impresses us as much of a mystery. Even J. Allen Hynek was dismissive of 'lights in the sky' UFO reports. The bottom line is, Terauchi's own flight crew sa
'lights,' and other aircraft checking out the situation saw nothing unusual.

Artist's conception of Capt. Terauchi's UFO
The case merits a chapter (#22) in Leslie Kean's book, UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record. Written by John J. Callahan, he claims that Terauchi
"both saw it, too." Of course this is false they saw only lights, not the giant spaceship that Terauchi reported. Callahan also claims that "it flew alongside his jet" after he turned,
Klass notes), this contradicts what Terauchi told FAA controllers at the time. Callahan ices the cake with his claim that the CIA has over 30 minutes of radar data confirming Ter
UFO, but they refuse to release it, to prevent public panic.
How credible is Callahan’s account? In 2011, UFO Blogger Ryan Daube wrote,

At this point, Callahan’s credentials and story has never actually been independently confirmed. In fact, back in 2007, as we were attempting to verify his claims, w
contacted CIA Science Analyst Ron Pandolfi. Ron admitted that both he and Maccabee had in fact attended an FAA meeting like the one Callahan described. However, he di
not recall anyone making any statement that the meeting never happened, or that the data should be covered up…. We contacted Maccabee and he also confirmed that he wa
at such a meeting and received all of the data for his analysis and report, but he also did not recall anyone at the meeting trying to cover it up.

We reported this contradiction to Leslie Kean of the Coalition for Freedom of Information – the only listed contact for Callahan – and she initially did not believe us
Therefore, I put her in direct contact with Pandolfi and Maccabee, who both told her exactly what they told us. Kean refused to let us speak directly with Callahan to
the discrepancy, and eventually refused to cooperate regarding getting any clarification from Callahan.
In fact, Kean completely ignored the contradictory witness statements that she received firsthand, and instead went on to publish a book in 2010 titled UFOs: Generals
Pilots and Government Officials Go On the Record, where she repeated Callahan’s testimony in full on page 222, and even focused on the “this never happened” statement.
She completely left out the fact that she had received direct testimony from both a CIA analyst and Bruce Maccabee, stating that they were at such a meeting that matched th
meeting John described, and that no one said anything about coveringup.
So much for the credibility of John Callahan. And of Leslie Kean.
Kean is enormously impressed by pilot sightings, which she describes as “a unique window into the unknown.” She writes that pilots “represent the world’s most experienced an
trained observers of everything that flies… these unique circumstances potentially transform any jet aircraft into a specialized flying laboratory for the study of rare
phenomena.” Dr. J. Allen Hynek, the late USAF Project Blue Book consultant who Kean repeatedly cites as a respected UFO authority, came to exactly the opposite conclusion. On
271 of his 1977 book The Hynek UFO Report, he wrote, “Surprisingly, commercial and military pilots appear to make relatively poor witnesses.” Kean actually quotes from othe
of that book, but makes absolutely no mention of Hynek’s low opinion of pilot sightings.

Rereading Terauchi's own statements about the incident, I don't think that anyone could call him an unbiased or objective observer.

What Did Japan Air Lines Flight 1628 Encounter?
Japan Air Lines flight 1628 was a UFO incident that occurred on November 17, 1986 involving a Japanese Boeing 747 cargo aircraft. The aircraft was en route from Paris to Narita,
with a cargo of Beaujolais wine. On the Reykjavík to Anchorage section of the flight, at 5:11 PM over eastern Alaska, the crew first witnessed two unidentified objects to their left.
abruptly rose from below and closed in to escort their aircraft. Each had two rectangular arrays of what appeared to be glowing nozzles or thrusters, though their bodies remained ob
by darkness. When closest, the aircraft’s cabin was lit up and the captain could feel their heat in his face. These two craft departed before a third, much larger diskshaped object star
trailing them, causing the pilots to request a change of course. Anchorage Air Traffic Control obliged and requested an oncoming United Airlines flight to confirm the unidentified
but when it and a military craft sighted JAL 1628 at about 5:51 PM, no other craft could be distinguished. The sighting of 50 minutes ended in the vicinity of Mt. McKinley.
On November 17, 1986, the Japanese crew of a JAL Boeing 747 cargo freighter witnessed three unidentified objects after sunset, while flying over eastern Alaska, USA. The object
seemed to prefer the cover of darkness to their left, and to avoid the brighter skies to their right. At least the first two of the objects were observed by all three crew members:
Kenju Terauchi, an exfighter pilot with more than 10,000 hours flight experience, in the cockpit’s lefthand seat; copilot Takanori Tamefuji in the righthand seat; and flight engine
Yoshio Tsukuba.
The routine cargo flight entered Alaska on autopilot, cruising at 565 mph (909 km/h) at an altitude of 35,000 ft (11,000 m). At 5:09 PM, the Anchorage ATC advised a new heading
towards Talkeetna, Alaska.
Two objects
As soon as JAL 1628 straightened out of its turn, at 05:11 PM, Captain Terauchi noticed two craft to his far left, and some 2,000 ft (610 m) below his altitude, which he assumed to
military aircraft. These were pacing his flight path and speed. At 5:18 or 5:19 PM the two objects abruptly veered to a position about 500 ft (150 m) or 1,000 ft (300 m) in front of th
aircraft, assuming a stacked configuration.
In doing so they activated “a kind of reverse thrust, and [their] lights became dazzlingly bright”. To match the speed of the aircraft from their sideways approach, the objects display
what Terauchi described as a disregard for inertia: “The thing was flying as if there was no such thing as gravity. It sped up, then stopped, then flew at our speed, in our direction, so
us it [appeared to be] standing still. The next instant it changed course. … In other words, the flying object had overcome gravity.” The “reverse thrust” caused a bright flare for 3 to
seconds, to the extent that captain Terauchi could feel the warmth of their glows.
Air traffic control was notified at this point (i.e. 5:19:15 PM), who could not confirm any traffic in the indicated position. After 3 to 5 minutes the objects assumed a sidetoside
configuration, which they maintained for another 10 minutes. They accompanied the aircraft with an undulating motion, and some back and forth rotation of the jet nozzles,
to be under automatic control, causing them to flare with brighter or duller luminosity.
Each object had a square shape, consisting of two rectangular arrays of what appeared to be glowing nozzles or thrusters, separated by a dark central section. Captain Terauchi specu
in his drawings, that the objects would appear cylindrical if viewed from another angle, and that the observed movement of the nozzles could be ascribed to the cylinders’ rotation. T
objects left abruptly at about 5:23:13 PM, moving to a point below the horizon to the east.
Mothership
Where the first objects disappeared, Captain Terauchi now noticed a pale band of light that mirrored their altitude, speed and direction. Setting their onboard radar scope to a 25 nau
miles (46 km) range, he confirmed an object in the expected 10 o’clock direction at about 7.5 nmi (13.9 km) distance,[4] and informed ATC of its presence. Anchorage found
their radar, but Elmendorf ROCC, directly in his flight path, reported a “surge primary return” after some minutes.
As the city lights of Fairbanks began to illuminate the object, captain Terauchi believed to perceive the outline of a gigantic spaceship on his port side that was “twice the size of an
aircraft carrier”. It was however outside first officer Tamefuji’s field of view. Terauchi immediately requested a change of course to avoid it. The object however followed him
formation”, or in the same relative position throughout the 45 degree turn, a descent from 35,000 to 31,000 ft, and a 360 degree turn. The shortrange radar at Fairbanks airport how
failed to register the object.
Anchorage ATC offered military intervention, which was declined by the pilot, due to his knowledge of the Mantell incident. The object was not noted by any of two planes which
approached JAL 1628 to confirm its presence, by which time JAL 1628 had also lost sight of it. JAL 1628 arrived safely in Anchorage at 18:20.
Aftermath
Captain Terauchi cited in the official Federal Aviation Administration report that the object was a UFO. In December 1986, Terauchi gave an interview to two Kyodo News journali
JAL soon grounded him for talking to the press, and moved him to a desk job. He was only reinstated as a pilot years afterwards, and retired eventually in north Kanto, Japan.
Kyodo News contacted Paul Steucke, the FAA public information officer in Anchorage on December 24, and received confirmation of the incident, followed by UPI on the 29th. Th
FAA’s Alaskan Region consulted John Callahan,[note 4] the FAA Division Chief of the Accidents and Investigations branch, as they wanted to know what to tell the media about
UFO. John Callahan was unaware of any such incident, considering it a likely early flight of a stealth bomber, then in development. He asked the Alaskan Region to forward the rele
data to their technical center in Atlantic City, New Jersey, where he and his superior played back the radar data and tied it in with the voice tapes by videotaping the concurrent
A day later at FAA headquarters they briefed Vice Admiral Donald D. Engen, who watched the whole video of over half an hour, and asked them not to talk to anybody until they w
given the OK, and to prepare an encompassing presentation of the data for a group of government officials the next day. The meeting was attended by representatives of the FBI, CI
President Reagan’s Scientific Study Team, among others. Upon completion of the presentation, all present were told that the incident was secret and that their meeting “never took p
According to Callahan, the officials considered the data to represent the first instance of recorded radar data on a UFO, and they took possession of all the presented data. John Calla
however managed to retain the original video, the pilot’s report and the FAA’s first report in his office. The forgotten target printouts of the computer data were also rediscovered,
which all targets can be reproduced that were in the sky at the time.
After a threemonth investigation, the FAA formally released their results at a press conference held on March 5, 1987. Here Paul Steucke retracted earlier FAA suggestions that the
controllers confirmed a UFO, and ascribed it to a “split radar image” which appeared with unfortunate timing. He clarified that “the FAA [did] not have enough material to
something was there”, and though they were “accepting the descriptions by the crew” they were “unable to support what they saw”. The McGrath incident was revealed here among
ample set of documents supplied to the journalists.
The sighting received special attention from the media, as a supposed instance of the tracking of UFOs on both ground and airborne radar, while being observed by experienced airli
pilots, with subsequent confirmation by an FAA Division Chief.

"UFO Over Lebanon"
Mr. Walter Hamady, a professor of art, was one of several witnesses to the presence of an unidentified flying object over Baakline, Shuf Province, Lebanon, early in the evening of A
4, 1972. Mr. Hamady is a resident of the United States, but we will not pinpoint his location. At the time of his sighting he was visiting at his Uncle's summer home at Chemlan whi
overlooks the Beirut airport. At about dusk Mr. Hamady, his wife Mary and Mr. Hamady's aunt went to Baakline and as they pulled into the driveway of the house Hamady's cousin
very excited, exclaiming they had just seen a "flying saucer". The small company made their way onto the terrace and saw a bright red light moving "straight off into space". Two pa
binoculars were on hand— a Bushnell 7x35 and a Trinovid 8 x 32.
The first sighting, which occurred prior to Mr. and Mrs. Hamady's arrival, is described by the cousin as follows (in Mr. Hamady's words):
He and his wife and brother were sitting out on the terrace enjoying the early evening when the power failed. They looked around, noting that the power at their uncle's home was st
as was that of the village. Power outages are not unusual in Lebanon so there was no alarm felt. After a bit Mr. Hamady's cousin's wife exclaimed, "Look at that beautiful red star, it
be Mars!" They all looked directly overhead and observed a very bright red star. As they were admiring it it emitted a big puff of black smoke and began to move off into the southw
They ran and got their binoculars and shortly after, Mr. Hamady and his wife and aunt arrived.
After the object moved off the power returned but Mr. Hamady did not keep track of the time so he does not know how soon after the object left. The group continued to sit on the te
enjoying the cool evening and the usual mountain breeze.
The night was clear, no clouds and no wind other than the slight breeze.
Mr. Hamady, his wife, aunt, and two cousins walked across the yard to the railing and were admiring the town of Deir El Quamar where a celebration was taking place and the entir
village was very brightly lit. Someone asked about the location of the Big Dipper and Mrs. Hamady located the constellation and was surprised to see a bright red light moving in it.
brought it to the attention of the others and they trained their binoculars on it. Mr. and Mrs. Hamady passed their binoculars around and one of the cousins yelled for his wife to join
group and bring their binoculars.
Hamady described the object seen through, the binoculars as two saucers placed on top of each other with a perpendicular plane of windows that went all the way around the craft. T
was a light inside that was not strange, simply looking like house lights at night, warm and yellow in appearance. On top of the craft, he said, was a dome also lit up in the same way
windows. In back of it or in the lee of the direction it was moving were two lights. Hamady can no longer recall what color these lights were but his wife recalls that one was red and
other was green. There was no exhaust, noise or visible means of propulsion, and the movement was steady. The object proceeded steadily into the southeast, at about the speed of a
propeliordriven aircraft, and disappeared from view. See line drawing of the Lebanon object by artist Brian James.

Valley, Alabama, USA, UFO Photograph Taken, 1996
An ISUR NEWS Special: a local radio station and newspaper received six different photos from an anonymous source that show a capsuleshape UFO hovering over a farm pasture
letter accompanying the photos, the source claims to have taken the remarkable UFO photographs on the 16th of September, 1996, in Valley, Alabama, USA.
According to the phototaker, he was repairing a fence on his property when his dog started barking loudly. Going over to where his dog was he looked up to see a lowflying capsule
UFO hovering and moving slowly over one of his cow pastures. The UFO captured in each of the photos resembles the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo space capsules that the United
launched in the early years of its space program.
Black to dark green, the coneshaped capsule, when blownup, shows a black teflonlike covered bottom and a flange or rim that goes around near the top of the unknown object. In
photo the UFO is shown at a slightly different position and elevation, making it more difficult to hoax, according to researchers who have examined the photographs.
The photos and a copy of the letter were aired publicly for the first time on TV33 in Lagrange, Georgia on 26 September 1996. On the "Heston & Steve" show, the two hosts, Hesto
Yates and Steve Smoots, along with John C. Thompson and Jimmy Smith, field investigators for the International Society for Ufo Research (ISUR), speculated about whether the U
photos are real.
All of them agreed that if the photos were part of a hoax, it was a most strange and clever one. Mr. Thompson said on the program that he was "most favorably impressed by the pho
He also has stated since then that he has two witnesses who saw similar shaped UFOs in May and July in the LaGrange area which is only 20 miles from Valley.
Another witness that he has located, says he and others saw the exact craft, incredibly, 25 years earlier in Atlanta. Mr. Smith, a longtime investigator and actual sightee of UFOs, sa
photos appeared genuine. He also said that he himself, in 1971, had seen a UFO with a likeness of what the photos depict. He then went on to relate that the 1971 UFO had cut
to his pickup while he observed it.
The photos, along with a copy of the letter from the alleged phototaker, have now been sent to Jeff Sainio, a photography expert who specializes in analyzing UFO video and photos
Sainio, who often does photo analysis for the popular TV Sightings program, will determine if the photos really show a UFO.
In the meantime, it is hoped that the person who took these amazing photos will step forward and allow access to the negatives that the photos were made from. All persons involve
investigating the photos are assuring the phototaker over TV and radio that if he wishes, his anonymity will be kept.
Editor's Note: This case has good detail and a nice, clear photograph. I rarely ever add my own opinion into articles that are kept on the UFO Casebook. In this case, however, I mus
that there is something just not quite right about the photograph.
It has the look of a wooden water bucket turned upside down. In all fairness, I have NO proof to back up this statement, and I am keeping an open mind. Does anyone else agree wit
on this?

Paul Villa Photo and Contact Case
Date: June 16, 1963
Location: Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States

Apolinar (Paul) Villa, a mechanic of Albuquerque, New Mexico, had a unique privilege having prearranged meetings with Space People for the specific purpose of taking pictures o
craft. They told him they came from the galaxy of Coma Berenices, many light years distance.
Photo taken June 16, 1963. The occupants of the UFO "permitted Villa to take photo's of their ship which posed and hovered close to the surface between 2 and 4P.M. while he took various shots of the craft
trees in the foreground. He used a Japanesemade RokuohSha camera with an f4.6, 75mm lens loaded with 120 Kodak film."

June 16, 1963near Albuquerque, N.M. Apolinar(Paul)A. Villa, Jr., 49(born Sept. 24, 1916), a mechanic of 601 Niagara N.E.; Albuquerque, New Mexico, had a unique privilege hav
prearranged meetings with Space People for the specific purpose of taking pictures of their craft.
Apparently, contacts of one kind or another with space people are not new to Mr. Villa. He says that he has been taught telepathy by extraterrestrial intelligence since he was five ye
old. Although he did not complete the tenth grade of school, he seems to have a good knowledge on such subjects as mathematics, electricity, physics, and mechanics, and has an un
"gift" for detecting defects in engines, generators, etc.
Villa says that prior to photographing his first series of saucers in 1963, he had seen about five Flying Saucers in the previous five years, and he had talked with a spaceman previou
said that his first picturetaking contact was his second inperson meeting with extraterrestrial beings. The first was in 1953 while he was working for the Department of Water and P
in Los Angeles. While on the job one day in Long Beach, he had a strong urge to go down to the beach, a feeling he did not understand. There he met a man about 7 feet tall. At firs
was a afraid and wanted to run away. But the man called him by name, and told him many personal things about himself. "Villa realized that he was communicating with a very sup
intelligence, and he then became aware that this being was a spaceman. "He knew everything I had in my mind and told me many things that had happened in my life," Villa says. "
then told me to look out beyond the reef. I saw a metallic looking discshaped object that seemed to be floating on the water. Then the spaceman asked me if I would I like to go abo
the craft and look around, and I went with him." He said the saucer occupants were entirely humanoid in appearance, although better looking in general than Earth people, as they
definitely more refined in the face and the body. Also they had an advanced knowledge of science, as evidenced by their craft, and by their talk with him." They told Villa that the w
galaxy to which our Earth belongs is a grain of sand on a huge beach, in relation to the unfathomable number of inhabited galaxies in the entire Universe. Because of their technolog
advancement, their spaceships can penetrate the Earth's radar detection system, so that they are picked up on our radar screens only when they choose to call attention to their presen
our skies. It seems that their craft are constantly active over our surface, and that they plan more sightings and landings in order to increase public awareness of their existence. They
they were here on a friendly mission to help our people; that they have bases on our moon; that Phobos, one of the two moons of Mars is hollow and is artificially constructed; and t
their is a Superior Intelligence that governs the Universe and everything in it.
For his first series of pictures, Mr. Villa says his space contacts told him, telepathically, to drive his pickup truck on June 16, (1963), to the meeting place, alone. There he saw a lan
Flying saucer which he estimated to be about 70 feet in diameter. There were nine people aboard the ship: four men and five women. They disembarked through a hermetically seale
door. These beings, he says, ranged in height from seven to nine feet and were well proportioned. Some were blond; some were redheaded; (like polished copper); and some had bl
hair. They told him they came from the galaxy of Coma Berenices, many light years distance. They were able to speak many languages, as well as to communicate telepathically. Vi
told the craft operated as a Mothership for its nine remotelycontrolled monitoring disks which were 14 inches in diameter, and were controlled from instrument panels in the Mothe
They could pickup pictures and sounds from any area from which they were directed, and then could then relay them to TV panels aboard the Mother Craft. They permitted Villa to
photo's of their ship which posed and hovered close to the surface between 2 and 4P.M. while he took various shots of the craft framed by the trees in the foreground. He used a Japa
made RokuohSha camera with an f4.6, 75mm lens loaded with 120 Kodak film. Two of the photo's show the ship in a vertical position, on its side, to indicate that the Space People
created an artificial gravity within the craft, and thus are completely comfortable no matter what position the ship is in, relative to a planet's surface.. Incidentally, in photo 7...???, th
vents in the hull, thought by some to be port holes, are not windows, but are openings directly concerned with the propulsion of the ship. Villa says they told him that the vents are
only within a planets atmospherenever in outer space.

Another contact... for his second set of pictures, Villa was telepathically guided, to another area near Bernalillo, New Mexicoabout 15 miles north of Albuquerque. This was on E
Sunday, April 18, 1965. The ship seen in photo's #1,2 and 3, projected a ray which caused a small brush fire. The smoke from the fire is visible(more clearly in color)in the trees jus

them for nearly two hours about personal as well as general matters. They told him that our Astronauts, Edward White and James McDivitt, on their nowfamous GT4 flight, were r
seeing a spaceship when they reported sighting the Pegasuslike object. They also said our Government won't release the Mariner4 photo's because they show pumping stations for
canal systems on Mars. They added, that by 1966, 17 nations will have the Atomic Bomb. Villa says they conversed both in Spanish(his native language)and in English. On their ad

Rex Heflin UFO Photographs
Date: August 3, 1965
Location: Santa Ana, California, United States

Rex Heflin, an Orange County highway inspector, was at work in a county vehicle at 12:37 P.M when he saw a hatshaped (disc with dome) object hovering above the road. He grab
his Polaroid camera and took three photographs of the metallicappearing object and a fourth of a black "smoke ring" left behind by the object.
Rex Heflin, an Orange County highway inspector, was at work in a county vehicle at 12:37 P.M when he saw a hatshaped (disc with dome) object hovering above the road. He grab
his Polaroid camera normally used to record highway obstructions or other problems and took three photographs of the metallicappearing object and a fourth of a black "smoke ring
behind by the object after it departed at high speed. He reported seeing a rotating band of light on the underside of the object (like the sweep of a radar beam).
Heflin twice tried to radio his base, during the sighting, but the radio would not work. (It functioned normally after the object departed.) One of the photographs was published by th
Santa Ana Register on September 20, 1965; then the story was picked up by the national newswire services.

The Los Angeles Subcommittee of NICAP, headed by Idabel Epperson, conducted a thorough investigation of the case, including a detailed character and background check, onsite
investigation and measurements (by engineer John Gray), and photoanalysis. Both Heflin and the newspaper cooperated fully in the investigation.
Computer enhancement and photoanalysis was conducted by Robert Nathan at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, working with firstgeneration prints and copy negatives made by the
newspaper. Among other things, the analysis established photographic evidence to confirm the "light beam" on the underside of the object. The Air Force issued a statement declarin
photographs a hoax, which was strongly disputed by NICAP. Nathan specifically ruled out a model suspended by a string as the explanation.
Unknown parties later attempted to tamper with the evidence and manipulate information. The copy negatives were obtained from Heflin under false pretenses, by someone pretend
be from the North American Air Defense Command. (Click here for copy of letter from Lt. Gen. Wheless). Years later, Bill Spaulding of Ground Saucer Watch using computer
enhancement techniques reported finding a linelike marking above the object, suggestive of a supporting string, implying that the UFO was hoaxed by using a small model. Howeve
alleged "line" clearly was either an artifact created by multigenerational copying of the photographs or a deliberately introduced marking to discredit Heflin. No such line was found
originals by Nathan, the newspaper, or NICAP analysts.
August 3, 1965. Santa Ana, California.
In 1993, MUFON photoanalyst Jeffrey Sainio reexamined Spaulding's work and rejected the string hypothesis.
Technical data: Polaroid Model 101,114 mm focal length, variable aperture, builtin light meter, automatic settings; Type 107 black & white film, ASA 3000.

Still others have come to similar conclusions. Another researcher indicated that he had conducted a graphic analysis of the Heflin photos. He had secured a "O" Gauge model toy tra
wheel from a set of 3Rail Andrews Trucks (Item #6033) by manufacturer Atlas O. He then digitally compared this toy train wheel with the Heflin "UFO" image using a Photoshop
ImageReady animated gif program. He created a digital overlay comparison of the wheel unto the UFO image. It is not claimed that this is the very wheel Heflin had used, but it is h
persuasive that a toy wheel was just what the "UFO" was. The analyst adjusted the brightness and contrast and then applied a film grain filter for matching the two images. He indic
that he did not stretch or shrink the relative proportions of the "UFO" image to the train wheel image. Here are the striking results:

TransenProvence Physical Trace Case
Date: January 8, 1981
Location: TransenProvence, France

On the afternoon of January 8, 1981, a strange craft landed on a farm near the village of TransenProvence in the Var region in southeastern France. Physical traces left on the grou
were collected by the Gendarmerie within 24 hours and later analyzed in several French government laboratories. Extensive evidence of anomalous activity was detected.

On the afternoon of January 8, 1981, a strange craft landed on a farm near the village of TransenProvence in the Var region in southeastern France. Physical traces left on the groun
were collected by the Gendarmerie within 24 hours and later analyzed in several French government laboratories. Extensive evidence of anomalous activity was detected.
The case was investigated by the Groupe d'Etudes des Phénomènes Aérospatiaux Nonidentifiés (GEPAN), or Unidentified Aerospace Phenomena Study Group, established in 1977
within the National Center for Space Studies (CNES) in Toulouse, the French counterpart of NASA. (The functions of GEPAN were reorganized in 1988 into the Service d'Expertis
Phénomènes de Rentrées Atmosphériques or SEPRA). The primary investigator was JeanJacques Velasco, the current head of SEPRA.
The witness was the farmer Renato Nicolai, 55, on whose property the UFO landed and then tookoff almost immediately. Thinking that it was a military experimental device, Nico
notified the local gendarmes on the following day. The gendarmes interviewed Nicolai and collected soil and plant samples from the landing site within 24 hours of the occurrence,
notifying GEPAN on January 12 as part of a cooperation agreement for UFO investigation between the two agencies. Further collection of samples and measurements of the site
undertaken by the GEPAN team, and the samples were thoroughly analyzed by several government laboratories.
The first detailed report on the case was published by GEPAN in 1983 in its "Technical Note No. 16, Inquiry 81/01, Analysis of a Trace." Nicolai's testimony to the police was simp
straightforward: "My attention was drawn to a small noise, a kind of little whistling. I turned around and I saw, in the air, a ship which was just about the height of a pine tree at
of my property. This ship was not turning but was descending toward the ground. I only heard a slight whistling. I saw no flames, neither underneath or around the ship.
"While the ship was continuing to descend, I went closer to it, heading toward a little cabin. I was able to see very well above the roof. From there I saw the ship standing on the gro
"At that moment, the ship began to emit another whistling, a constant, consistent whistling. Then it took off and once it was at the height of the trees, it took off rapidly... toward the
northeast. As the ship began to lift off, I saw beneath it four openings from which neither smoke nor flames were emitting. The ship picked up a little dust when it left the ground.
"I was at that time about 30 meters [100 feet] from the landing site. I thereafter walked towards the spot and I noticed a circle about two meters [7 feet] in diameter. At certain spots
curve of the circle, there were tracks (or traces).
"The ship was in the form of two saucers upside down, one against the other. It must have been about 1.5 meters [5 feet] high. It was the color of lead. The ship had a border or type
brace around its circumference. Underneath the brace, as it took off, I saw two kinds of round pieces which could have been landing gear or feet. There were also two circles which
like trap doors. The two feet, or landing gear, extended about 20 centimeters [8 inches] beneath the body of the whole ship."
The samples of soil and wild alfalfa collected from the landing site, as well as the control samples from varying distances from the epicenter, were subjected to a number of analyses
physicochemical analysis at the SNEAP laboratory, electronic diffraction studies at Toulouse University, mass spectrometry by ion bombardment at the University of Metz, and
biochemical analysis of the vegetable samples at the National Institute of Agronomy Research (INRA), among others.
The TransenProvence case is very likely the most thoroughly scientifically documented CE II (Close Encounter of the Second Kind) ever investigated. Some of the scientific find
included: "Traces were still perceptible 40 days after the event.
"There was a strong mechanical pressure forced (probably the result of a heavy weight) on the surface.
"A thermatic heating of the soil, perhaps consecutive to or immediately following the shock, the value of which did not exceed 600 degrees.
"The chlorophyll pigment in the leaf samples was weakened from 30 to 50 percent... The young leaves withstood the most serious losses, evolving toward the content and compositi
"The chlorophyll pigment in the leaf samples was weakened from 30 to 50 percent... The young leaves withstood the most serious losses, evolving toward the content and compositi
more characteristic of old leaves."

"The action of nuclear irradiation does not seem to be analogous with the energy source implied with the observed phenomenon; on the other hand, a specific intensification of the
transformation of chlorophyll... could be tied to the action of a type of electric energy field.

"On the biochemical level, the analysis was made on the entirety of the factors of photosynthesis, lipids, sugars and amino acids. There were many differences between those sample
further from the spot of the landing and those that were closer to the spot.

"It was possible to qualitatively show the occurrence of an important event which brought with it deformations of the terrain caused by mass, mechanics, a heating effect, and perha
certain transformations and deposits of trace minerals.

"We cannot give a precise and unique interpretation to this remarkable combination of results. We can state that there is, nonetheless, another confirmation of a very significant even
which happened on this spot."

Most of the puzzling biochemical mutations were discovered by Michel Bounias of INRA. Describing the young leaves to a journalist from FranceSoir magazine, Bounias stated in
that: "From an anatomical and physiological point, they [leaves] had all the characteristics of their age, but they presented the biochemical characteristics of leaves of an advanced a
leaves! And that doesn't resemble anything that we know on our planet."

In a technical report published in the Journal of Scientific Exploration, Bounias concluded that: "It was not the aim of the author to identify the exact nature of the phenomenon obse
on the 8th of January 1981 at TransenProvence. But it can reasonably be concluded that something unusual did occur that might be consistent, for instance, with an electromagneti
source of stress. The most striking coincidence is that at the same time, French physicist J.P. Petit was plotting the equations that led, a few years later (Petit, 1986), to the evidence
flying objects could be propelled at very high speeds without turbulence nor shock waves using the magnetohydrodynamic effects of Laplace force action!"

Out of a total of 2,500 reports collected officially in France since 1977 and investigated by GEPAN, this case and three other ground trace incidents (where strange ground traces we
after alleged UFO landings) continue to puzzle the original investigator, JeanJacques Velasco. At a meeting of the Society for Scientific Exploration (SSE) in Glasgow in 1994, Vel
summarized the "four noteworthy cases" with "effects observed on vegetation":
"These cases have all been the subject of enquiries by the police, then GEPAN or SEPRA. In each of these situations, a UAP [Unidentified Aerospace Phenomena] was observed in
relation in a zone perturbed by the phenomenon.

"1. 'CHRISTELLE' case of 27/11/1979: Persistence of flattened grass several days after the observation. The samples taken and analyzed by a plant biology laboratory at Toulouse
University did not give unequivocal evidence of chemical or biological disturbance of the samples taken from the marked area relative to controls. A study of the mechanical proper
grass tissue subjected to strong mechanical pressure showed that the duration is a more important factor than the mass.

"2. 'TRANS EN PROVENCE' case of 8/01/81: Apparition of a circular print in a crown shape after observation of a metallic object resting on the ground. The vegetation, a kind of
alfalfa, showed withering of the dried leaves in the central part of the print. The analyses revealed damage of a specific kind affecting the functional relationships of the photosynthe
system.
"3. 'AMARANTE' case of 21/08/82: Severe drying of the stems and leaves on a bush (amaranth), punctuated by the appearance of raised blades of grass before the phenomenon
disappeared. Biochemical analyses revealed that no reported outside agent could be the cause of such effects. Only a corona effect due to powerful electromagnetic fields could part
explain the observations.

"4. 'JOE LE TAXI' case of 7/09/87: Leaf damage on a tree (birch) and functional disturbance of the photosynthetic system after an intense light and sound phenomenon had been ob
This case demonstrated the importance of good sample collection and preservation for biochemical analysis."

Of these four cases, TransenProvence still remains the best documented one. Velasco concluded that, after years of investigations: "The laboratory conclusion that seems to best co
the effects observed and analyzed is that of a powerful emission of electromagnetic fields, pulsed or not, in the microwave frequency range."
SEPRA's latest thrust in the investigation has centered on "experimentally reproducing in the laboratory, continuous and pulsed emissions of microwave fields at various powers and
frequencies so as to verify biochemical effects on plants." While the studies are still preliminary, Velasco concluded his SSE presentation with the following statement: "However th
initial studies carried out to validate the hypothesis of microwave action on the biological activity of plants in relation with UAPs need to be extended if we are to understand the
mechanisms involved at molecular scale. Similarly, an investigation of the frequency range, the power and the exposure time would be useful to confirm the hypothesis of microwav
combined with other fields of electromagnetic forces coming into play in the propulsion of UAPs."

on August 29, 1967. In a meadow beside Route D.57 ten or so cows are grazing in the care of Francois Delpeuch (131) and his sister AnneMarie (9) accompanied by their little dog
Medor. The weather is fine, the sky is clear, and a light wind is blowing from the west.
As the cows make a move to cross the low wall, Francois gets up to bring them back, turns round and sees, on the other side of the road, what he takes at first to be four children. Th
behind a hedge 40 metres or so away. He climbs on top of a few stones the better to see these children whom he does not recognise. Francois and AnneMarie make out, near the str
a large sphere half hidden by the hedge. It is very brilliant and shines so much it is painful to look at.
One of the little beings is bending over and seems to be busy with the soil, while another, holding in one hand an object which reflects the sun (which Francois likened to a mirror),
waving his hands, apparently making signs to his companions.
Francois then called out, "Have you come to play with us?" At this moment the small beings, who did not seem to be interested in the children, became aware that they were under
observation. The first one (see sketch) took off vertically and then plunged head first through the top of the sphere. The second followed in the same way, and the third, after getting
did likewise. The fourth also got up, but before diving into the machine, came down again and seemed to pick up something from ihe ground (his mirror, Francois thinks). Then he t
off again and caught up with the sphere which during this time had begun to rise in a small spiral, and was already 15 or so metres up in the air. He then disappeared inside like the r
When climbing, the sphere made a soft, fairly piercing whistling noise, mingled with the sound of a breeze which neither of the children felt.
The sphere then made several more circles, climbing al! the while, and in doing so the intensity of the light given off by it increased considerably. Then the sound stopped and the sp
flew off at full speed to the northwest. At the same time, a smell of sulphur began to spread, reaching the children. The cows started lowing and gathered near to those of Francois a
AnneMarie.
The dog Medor barked at the object and wanted to follow it. The children did not see the object disappear, as they had to look after the cows, which were very upset, and which they
home half an hour earlier than usual.
Details of the object are scanty. It was a perfect sphere, about 2 metres in diameter, of a very brilliant luminous silver colour, and dazzling. Francois, who wears spectacles and so m
have sensitive eyes, experienced running eyes for a quarter of an hour after seeing the object, and every morning on waking for several days afterwards. His sister, who does not wea
glasses, felt nothing.
No details were noticed on the sphere itself; it was perfectly smooth, without marking or visible opening. The little beings seemed to pass through the wall of the sphere. The only d
noticed, and one of the points of difference in the children's stories, was by AnneMarie. She says she saw beneath ihe machine a landing gear consisting of three or four straight leg
equipped with round "shoes" 10 cm. in diameter. They were no longer \ isible beneath the machine in flight. AnneMarie did not sec them retract into the machine. One minute they
there, the moment after, they were there no longer. It may be thought that, as the machine rose and the intensity of the light increased to a point where it was unbearable, the visible
of the object would have been swamped by this dazzling light, which would explain why Francois, with his sensitive eyes, could not see the legs at the point of takeoff, since at tha
instance the machine was very luminous.
The smell of sulphur spread as the machine began to climb in a spiral or, more precisely, helical course. The light west wind was blowing from the object towards the children. The
started to low as soon as the machine moved off. It may be noted that in sufficient concentration, ozone has a smell which could be confused with that of sulphur (i.e. of sulphurous
and that a smell of ozone has already been noticed in a number of UFO landings.
Details of the small beings are more numerous and interesting. They were 1120 metres tall, not all of the same height. Nos. I and 2 (see sketch) were the smallest, and the tallest w
4, the one with a "mirror" in his hand. They were "completely black", but with a shiny look which Francois compared to that of silk. The children could not be certain whether the
was that of the beings' skin, or of some sort of protective suit, for there was no visible dividing line between any possible clothing and the heads of the beings, which were bare. If th
was a protective suit of some kind, it was perfectly fitted.
The limb proportions were not completely in accordance with the norms of our species. The arms were somewhat too long and thin (see sketches). The children could not distinguis
anything which might serve as hands. The legs were short and thin. The head seemed of normal proportions relative to the body, but the cranium was pointed and the chin equally w
very much accentuated. The nose also was pointed, and here was a second point of difference in their stories...
Although they did not appear to wear any apparatus on their backs, the beings flew with great ease and speed...
(...)
We then went to Cussac where we found little AnneMarie with her mother and her younger brother, Andre, and were very well received. We questioned AnneMarie for nearly an h
There were two of us and we asked questions in turn, in a continuous stream, reverting from time to time to the same questions but differently formulated, in an effort to try to make
child contradict herself. She is a timid little girl, bui she never once did so. After this interrogation she took us off to find her brother Francois who was working in the fields with hi
brother Raymond. We walked back with Francois to his parents' home, interrogating him as we had done his sister. He too never contradicted himself. Again, when questioning them
together, both at home and at the scene of the incident, and asking them ever more specific questions, we never saw any conniving looks pass between them. They never seemed
embarrassed by our questions; either they had seen the detail asked for, or they had not. For example, Francois told us: "From the first day, AnneMarie has said she saw legs beneat
object, but I didn't see any, so I can't tell you anything!" On this point, incidentally, he thinks she mistook the branches of the hedge for "legs".
(...)
All the above only strengthen the feeling, which we had had throughout the enquiry, that we were confronted by a passionately believed and deeply serious case, whose significance
importance we could not overemphasise...

Circular object with dome and two 'figures' inside

The object was circular in shape, "about as big as a car." She was able to see that it had a domed top. In the dome, which was transparent, she could make out the indistinct outlines

The object was circular in shape, "about as big as a car."
She told the NICAP investigator that it was close enough for some one to have thrown a rock at it and hit it.
As she stood looking, the object tipped and rotated partly so that she was able to see that it had a domed top. In the dome, which was transparent, she could make out the indistinct o
of two figures, but she was unable to make out any details because of the glare. She ran into her house and called for her younger sister to come and look, but the youngster was bare
and did not come out. Miss Wilding then ran back outside in time to see the object begin to rotate, in a clockwise direction as seen from below. It maintained its tilted attitude while
rotating, and therefore gave the appearance of wobbling. With this motion, it began moving away toward the north. As it receded into the distance, the light dimmed and turned oran
color.
The UFO's departure was observed from inside the house by Miss Wilding's younger brothers and sister, who had been alerted by the witness. (Mr. and Mrs. Wilding were not at ho

UFO and occupants seen near Cowichan Hospital in BC, Canada
Location: Duncan, British Columbia, Canada
Miss Doreen Kendall, a practical nurse at the Cowichan District Hospital on Vancouver Island, was looking out the window of the ward, when she saw 60 feet away an "object so bi
bright I could see everything clearly." There were two malelike figures in the craft, one behind the other. One of the "men" eventually looked right at Doreen, and the craft started to
away, but not before Freida Wilson, a registered nurse, also saw the object.
Drawing of the sighting by artist Brian James. (Canadian UFO Report)
It was turning five in the morning on New Year's Day 1970, when Miss Doreen Kendall, a practical nurse at the Cowichan District Hospital on Vancouver Island, noticed that one of
elderly patients in her ward was restless. Deciding the patient was too warm, she went to a window and parted the drapes to let in a little air.
"Just as I pulled the drapes a brilliant light hit me in the eyes," she said. "It was still dark outside, but about 60 feet away right above the children's ward to my left there was this obj
big and bright I could see everything clearly."
"The object was circular and had what I guess you would call a top and bottom. The bottom was silvery, like metal, and was shaped like a bowl. There was a string of bright lights a
it like a necklace. The top was a dome made of something like glass. It was lit up from inside and I could see right into it."
Continuing her account in questionandanswer form, Miss Kendall told me there were two malelike figures in the craft, one behind the other, facing to her right away from the hos
The one in front appeared taller, or perhaps was positioned higher, than the other. Their heads were encased in closefitting dark material.
As she watched with intense curiosity, yet completely unfrightened "I never felt so peaceful in all my life. I wish I could have talked to them" she became aware of seeing more o
interior of the craft and realized it was tilting. In a moment she could see to a point just below their knees and noticed they were standing in front of what looked like stools.
"They looked like fine, tall, wellbuilt men," she said. "They were dressed in tightfitting suits of the same material that covered their heads but their hands were bare and I noticed h
human they looked. Their flesh seemed just like ours."
Intrigued as she was by the appearance of the two figures, Miss Kendall found her interest centered on what looked like an instrument panel facing the one in front.
"The man in front was staring at the panel as if something very important was going on, and I wondered if they might have had mechanical trouble. I even thought they might have l
on the roof of the hospital and then had trouble taking off."
She described the panel as a very large one, taking up almost half the interior of the object and reaching nearly to the top of the dome. The instruments, if that is what they were, see
be inset in the chromelike metal of the panel and there was a variety of sizes.
The total sight was so absorbing that at first Miss Kendall's thoughts were lost to everything else, and for a moment she forgot Mrs. Frieda Wilson, a registered nurse, was in the sam
room.
"Then when I did think of it, I guess I hesitated. I felt I mustn't make a noise or do anything that would break the trend of what was happening."
At this point, almost as if her thoughts were being read, she saw the figure in the rear turn slowly and face squarely in her direction.
"He seemed to look right at me but I couldn't see his face. It was covered by a darkish material that looked softer than the rest of his suit. I'm sure he saw me because then he touche
other man on the back. When he did this, the man in front reached down and took hold of something like a lever beside him. I'll never forget how deliberately he did it. He pushed it
and forth and the saucer, or whatever you'd call it, started to circle slowly, still close to the building, in an anticlockwise direction."
The motion seemed to break the spell for Miss Kendall, for then she remembered Mrs. Wilson was there and called her over.
Later I spoke separately to Mrs. Wilson, who said, "I noticed Miss Kendall standing at the window and wondered what she was looking at. In fact, I was just going to see when she
beckoned to me, and then I saw this great big light over the patio outside the children's ward. I'd say it was quite a bit larger than a car. (By the estimate of both witnesses, the object
spanned a width of about five windows of the children's ward. This gave it a diameter of at least 50 feet.) It looked circular in shape and the far side seemed to be higher than the sid
us. It was moving around slowly and then it started to move away. I didn't really see any top or bottom to it. It was all just tremendously bright."

Occupant Encounter In Argentina

On Sunday, 28 October 1973, in the first hour of the morning, truck driver Dionisio Llanca had a fantastic experience. Dionisio, a calm and quiet bachelor arrived at a hospital in Ba
Blanca in a state of total amnesia. Three days later as he regained his memory he related his extraordinary experience a night encounter on route H3 with a flying saucer and bein
talked with "chillidos" and who took a sample of his blood.
Dionisio Llanca got up late on Saturday, 27 October 1973 and put on old pants, shirt and dark sweater and lounged about the modest painted cottage on Calle Chubut, only ten minu
from the center of Bahia Blanca. He ate lunch early and napped during the siesta period because he would have to drive all night long.
He arose about six P. M. and watched a television serial, which it should be noted was realistic and direct, and without fantastic elements. About 10:00P. M. he ate a dinner of beef,
and two glasses of Cepita, a nonalcoholic beverage, with his uncle Enrique Ruiz. A few minutes after midnight Llanca said goodbye to his uncle and got into his truck, a Dodge 60
loaded with construction material to be delivered to Rio Gallegos, a two day trip. After 12 years of driving the eyes become accustomed to observing conditions, even in the shadow
street. He discovered that the right rear tire was low. He was of a mind to change it but decided to leave instead. When he left the house it was 12:30. Sunday had already begun. Th

altitude, and three persons at my shoulders looking at me. I tried once more to get up but could not. The paralysis became total and I could not even talk. The three beings stood look

Dionisio could not remember when he awoke. The time is calculated to be between 2 and 3 A. M. on Sunday. When he opened his eyes he was among the rail cars in the yard of th
Sociedad Rural de Bahia Blanca, exactly 9 kilometers 600 meters from the point where the encounter took place. He could remember nothing, not even his name, nor the episode, n
truck, nor his home. He was nauseated and cold. He began walking toward the road guided by the lights of the vehicles. Recently, on the 30th when he awoke in a bed in the Munici
Hospital of Bahia Blanca he remembered the experience in detail. His clothes were intact, folded in the drawers of the bed. He felt a desire to smoke and to know what time it was. H
went to his clothes and discovered that his watch was missing, and also his cigarette lighter and cigarettes in a meta! box were missing. The pockets of his pants still contained the 1

It is still a mystery concerning what occurred between the time Dionisio awakened among the rail cars, some 10 kilometers from where the encounter took place, and the time when
was treated by Doctor Ricardo Smirnoff at the hospital. "I am a forensic surgeon. I had rotating duty on Sunday the 28th. About 9:30 Dr. Altaperro at the Spanish Hospital called me

Dionisio Llanca is a simple, almost primitive man. In two days of interviews he remained withdrawn and did not even smile. He is serious with a remote sense of humor. One of the
doctors characterized him as "innocent." When he is asked what he thinks about UFOs, he says "Nothing, It doesn't interest me." In reality, there are few subjects that Interest Dion

Occupant Encounter in New Hampshire (Lyndia Morel Encounter)
Goffstown, New Hampshire November 2, 1973:
Location: Manchester, New Hampshire, United States
Excerpt: "As the car approached a point opposite the middle of the cemetery the UFO closed possibly to within less than 500 feet... At this point she estimated the object to be at the
of a threestory building. The figure in the window was now distinct."
Brian James, APRO staff artist, worked with Mr. Webb and the witness to execute the artwork above.
Detail of occupant based on witness sketch.
Walter Webb, APRO Bulletin, Vol. 12 No. 4 (Jan/Feb 1974)
The following information is condensed from the very detailed and excellent report submitted by Mr. Walter Webb, one of APRO's Consultants in Astronomy, as well as that of Mrs
Hill, F.I. in New Hampshire.
At 2:45 a.m. on Friday morning, November 2, 1973, Mrs. Lyndia Morel signed out at the Swedish Sauna in Manchester, New Hampshire where she is employed as a masseuse. She
proceeded south in her 1964 Chevrolet Corvair, arriving at Ben Roy's Restaurant on South Willow Street in Manchester, about 10 minutes later, where she had two cups of coffee w
friend from work. After approximately 45 minutes, she and her friend left the restaurant and parted company. Mrs. Morel drove across the street to a gas station and purchased two d
worth of gas. This episode, according to Mrs. Morel may have taken about 10 minutes.
After crossing the Merrimack River via Queen City Bridge, Mrs. Morel proceeded northwest on Mast Road (Route 114A). As she passed the BiWise Supermarket in Pinardville (o
of Manchester), her attention was attracted to a large, bright, yellow light in the sky to her left and ahead of her. Resembling a bright star, the object flashed red, green and blue
fact, the witness couldn't tell at this point if it was moving and thought the object was a planet. Mrs. Morel also was aware of another bright yellowish "star" to the left of the object
undoubtedly was the planet Mars. The UFO was brighter and yellower than the other object.
The witness continued to drive at what she believed was an average speed of about 30 miles per hour although she had no way of checking her speed since the speedometer was bro
and disconnected. After traveling about a mile, Mrs. Morel said she looked at the object and saw that it was still in the same position but seemed to be brighter.
Approaching the intersection of Routes 114A and 114, the woman lit a cigarette and at that moment, as she looked at the object, its light went out. Thinking that was peculiar for a p
she entertained the idea for the first time that the object might be a UFO. However, she was not apprehensive and after passing the intersection the light reappeared in the same spot
left and ahead of the car.
The road was dark but up ahead on the right Mrs. Morel said she could see the lights of the Hillsborough County Nursing Home (the socalled "county farm") and across the road on
left, the lights of Moore General Hospital. As her car approached the farm, the object's light went out again. Immediately after this disappearance, a couple of cars traveling toward
Manchester passed by in the eastbound lane. The witness recalled seeing no other traffic in either lane throughout the rest of the sighting, at least not until after her arrival at the Bea
house.
About a half mile from the nursing home, near the Boston and Maine Railroad crossing, the light came back on again, perhaps at an even brighter level. For another two miles the st
object maintained the same appearance and relationship to the Morel car as before.

On the outskirts of Goffstown (population 1050) about where the town's street lights began, the UFO's light vanished once more and after about .7 mile (mileage intervals from Mr.
speedometer) reappeared for perhaps 15 seconds, according to Mrs. Morel. But as she veered right around a corner into downtown Goffstown, the light went out and remained out d
the drive of .3 mile through the lighted downtown area.

Veering left at the intersection of Routes 114 and 13 (near a popcorn stand) the witness said she was astounded to see the light dead ahead down North Mast Road (Route 114). The
appeared larger, quite a bit closer, and lower than before and positioned as if waiting for the observer. Mr. Webb had Mrs. Morel indicate the UFO's position and apparent distance a
size. His estimate of the elevation/ true azimuth was 5°/287290°. Although she could not really judge how far away or how large the object was the witness pointed out a landmark
where she thought the object might have been, and that was determined by speedometer check to be 1600 feet away. By holding various coins at arm's length, she guessed the UFO'
apparent size was as large as a pea.

Mrs. Morel said that she was amazed at what she perceived before her. According to her, the object appeared to be an orange and gold globe completely covered with a honeycomb
of hexagons except for an oval window of paler color situated on the upper left portion of the UFO. The witness thought the object was not totally opaque but had a peculiar
quality about it. The flashes of red, green and blue light were rays or beams emanating

from a source in the center; these three colors constantly changed back and forth (as in the twinkling of a star). A steady, thin, highpitched whine was emitted by the object and, acc
to the woman, this sound was felt through her body as a tingling sensation.

Mrs. Morel said her amazement quickly turned to panic when she suddenly was unable to remove her hands from the steering wheel. Moreover, she reported that she felt her eyes pu
toward the UFO and had the sensation it was taking control of her body and drawing her toward it. When asked about any possible disturbances to the car's electrical system, she sai
was not aware of any effects on her automobile's engine, lights or radio which was playing at the time.

At no time during this phase of the sighting did the witness recall stopping her car. However, as she drove forward a "short distance" from the intersection she said she experienced a

the UFO without interruption. After the experience, she speculated that "they" may have retrieved and recorded her memory during this interval.

Suddenly Mrs. Morel said she realized where she was and became cognizant that the car was moving at a high rate of speed and that the vehicle was out of her control. She had the
definite impression that the UFO was pulling her car toward it like a magnet and getting closer, its apparent size having increased to an angle subtended by a dime at arm's length. T
observer thought the object's actual size was "at least" as big as a large automobile." When Mr. Webb questioned Mrs. Morel closely about the car's increased acceleration, she replie

It was at this point that she noticed the figure in the upper left window.

As the car approached a point opposite the middle of the cemetery the UFO closed possibly to within less than 500 feet (perhaps considerably less) becoming larger than a quarter a
length. At the same time the object grew brighter and the whine seemed louder. At this point she estimated the object to be at the height of a threestory building. The figure in the
was now distinct (see drawings by Brian James which accompany this article). Mrs. Morel barely mentioned the occupants in newspaper accounts because she thought it would be t
unbelievable and might discredit the whole experience.

Mrs. Morel said that the figure's head, upper body and arms were visible while a dark horizontal surface occupying the lower portion of the oval window obscured the rest of the bo
The woman guessed this humanoid could have been standing at a control board of some kind. Behind the figure was a white background. The occupant's body appeared darker than
face, with small shoulders, but it was uncertain whether the body was clothed in a uniform or not. The rounded head was grayish (between a gray and flesh tone) except for a darker
on top, and the face bore wrinkles or loose skin like an elephant's hide. Angling upward across the forehead, two large "eggshaped" eyes with large dark pupils gripped the observe
attention so much that she felt unable to look away. She said she received an impression or awareness that "told" her "don't be afraid." A mouthslit turned down at the corners, com
the description of the face. No nose or ears were noticed.
Panicstricken, Mrs. Morel believed she was in imminent danger of being captured by the UFO. Passing by the cemetery, she spotted a house ahead on the left. The globe became so
dazzling that she covered her eyes with an arm and simultaneously turned the wheel with the other hand, entering the driveway of the Beaudoin house at an angle and coming to a h
partly on the front lawn. The witness had covered a distance of almost exactly a mile from the Route 114/13 intersection and now she was only 3/4 mile from home.
Leaving the engine running and the headlights on, Mrs. Morel said she pushed open the door of the car. At that instant the Beaudoin's growling German Shepherd dashed up to the w
as she got out of the car. Normally afraid of strange dogs, she said she "belted" the animal across the mouth! Though she did not recall running to the house, she began pounding on
kitchen door, ringing the bell and yelling over and over again, "Help me! Help me! Help me!"

Glancing to her right, she noticed the UFO had shifted its position from west to north as if to keep her in view and was now hovering directly across the road opposite the Beaudoin
The object still emitted its highpitched whine, which according to Mrs. Morel was becoming almost unbearable. (Mrs. Morel pointed out the globe's new position and Mr. Webb
determined an elevation/azimuth of 12°/15°; the object had changed direction from about 280° to 15°, a drastic shift in azimuth of 95°.

After what the witness estimated to be about 2 minutes of attempting to attract the attention of the residents of the house, the door was opened by Mr. Beaudoin as Mrs. Morel began
sinking to her knees in almost a faint. The Beaudoins had been asleep upstairs and reluctantly came down in response to the persistent noise at the door. Mrs. Beaudoin said an obvio
frightened woman, her eyes wide open with terror, fell into Mr. Beaudoin's arms, crying, "Help me! I'm not drunk! I'm not on drugs! A UFO just tried to pick me up!" Mrs. Beaudoi
the witness was covering her ears but neither she nor her husband remember hearing any unusual sound. Mrs. Morel said that the sound ceased and the numbness or tingling sensati
had experienced vanished after two minutes in the Beaudoin kitchen. However, she became aware of a bright spot much similar to the effect caused by staring too long at a
source.

The clock on the kitchen wall read 4:30. Mrs. Beaudoin said the woman's story sounded impossible but she did phone the Goffstown Police Department and reported the occurrence
Goffstown Patrolman Daniel Jubinville, 23, received the call while on routine patrol and proceeded to the Beaudoin house, arriving there at 4:40 a.m. On his way to the door the off
turned off the lights and engine of the Morel car, then heard Mrs. Morel's account. In his report to Mr. Webb he stated: "This writer took note that the subject was quite shaken up an
writer did not note any evidence of alcohol or drug influence."

This, basically, is the "meat" of the Goffstown incident. After officer Jubinville arrived the four went outside and spotted an object whose light seemingly went out when a flashligh
trained on it, and appeared to move slightly, occasionally changing colors. However, in his evaluation of the report, Mr. Webb said: "The multiwitness phase of the sighting, in my
judgment, must be ruled ambiguous and therefore nonsupportive of the Morel sighting because (1) the object, as described by all four observers, matched the appearance and behav
both the planet Mars and the UFO (the latter when seen at a distance) and (2) the planet's known position was too close to the UFO's estimated position to entirely dismiss the plane
contention.

Mr. James worked with Mr. Webb and the witness to execute the artwork which accompanies this report.

Danish police officer has two close encounters (the Maarup sightings)
Location: Hadersley, Denmark
Danish police officer Evald Maarup was driving through the countryside near Hadersley, when he encountered a brilliantly lit UFO. Suddenly there was a fierce light beaming down
him, his car engine cut out, and the car lights and his radio stopped working. Above him, Maarup could make out a large circular object which he watched for about five minutes, be
moved away rapidly. Three years later, Maarup had another encounter with the same or a similar object at exactly the same place.

UFOs at Close Sight Ufologie.net
On August 13, 1970, Danish senior police officer Evald Maarup was driving back to his home in Knud, using the patrol vehicle at about 10:30 P.M., on a country road connecting K
and Flestrup, not far from the border enters Denmark and Germany, when something out of the ordinary happened to him.
At about ten kilometers in the North of the town of Hadersley, the car became bathed in a very powerful bluish light, and the car engine stopped suddenly. The officer tried to
communicate with his police station by means of the car's radio, but it did not function at all. It was if if all the electricity had disappeared of the patrol car.
Officer Maarup then realized that the temperature inside the vehicle had increased, and that it continued to increase quickly. In his report, he stated that he had the feeling that one w
have during a hot summer sun when it hits a car's windshield.
A short moment later, it was obvious to him that the bluish light seemed to be withdrawing. Maarup realized that the light actually surrounded a flying machine of elliptical shape, m
appearance, and of a diameter of approximately 10 meters, which was now rising in the sky.
Maarup noticed that actually, the rise of the craft was not the only cause of the withdrawal of the light which surrounded it. He realized that the extent of the light around the craft
decreased as if the craft was swallowing the light into its body, from a defined point located at the center of the bottom side of the craft, in which the light was engulfed as if it had b
sucked into there. This part of the craft appeared clearly delimited to him, by a dark part of a diameter he estimated at one meter. He also saw some protrusion on the underside of th
objects (see drawing on the right).
At this time, he remembered that he had a Fujaxa camera at disposal, as he is the rule, in the police car. He used it, and managed to take three snapshots of the object. Those, develop
following day, did not show much more than a gleam of light, without revealing any details.
After the series of events which Maarup estimated the duration of about five minutes, the craft then flew away at high speed in the sky. During all the events, the craft was totally
noiseless.
As soon as the object flew away, the car's engine started again spontaneously, the power went back, so that the lights went back, and the radio functioned again.
Maarup then went out of the patrol car, to look for clues or evidence of the event in the surroundings. He found none, but when he touched the car, he noticed that it had become hea
Very remarkably, Maarup had a second sighting almost three years to the day after this first encounter. On July 14, 1973, in the same area and at roughly the same time, he saw a sim
shaped UFO above the countryside as it passed over the landscape. Once again he was able to take pictures of the object but once again, all the six pictures were disappointing, show
only an indistinct spot of light. He also saw several dome like protrusions on the underside of the object.

Huge Ufo At West Point Academy In 1993!
Grant tells us that it’s taken him 15 years to work up the nerve to share his UFO account. It was about 2am on an August 10th 1993. Grant, a military policeman, was on duty w
other M.P.s at West Point Military Academy. Grant is quick to say that M.P. duty at West Point is actually rather dull, “…as nothing much ever really happened.”


On this particular clear moon lit night the three M.P.s were parked next to the main parade field and out of their vehicles, just talking amongst themselves. While they were talking
noticed that one of the other M.P.’s was distracted, he was looking over my shoulder. The other M.P. loudly asked, “Hey what the hell is that?”

Grant thought the other M.P. was messing around but he repeated, “Hey what’s that?” Grant turned around, and that is when he first saw the object. What stunned him was the she
of it.

“This thing was a huge UFO! It looked like a six story building lying on its side, and it was at least two stories high. It appeared black in the moon light and was totally silent. It ha
huge square lights on the first story, the second story had three square lights on bottom as well.

The three M.P.’s were mesmerized by what they were looking at. Grant tells us that they watched the craft for perhaps three or four minutes.

“We were trying to figure out amongst us what we were looking it, and whether or not we should report it. None of us had a clue what to report. I can tell you for certain that it w
plane, blimp, or a helicopter.”

Grant explains that while they were watching the huge UFO, all of a sudden the craft flashed a light like a camera flash in rapid sequence three times. He says the flash lit up the
side of mountain.

“At this time we were very alarmed. We jumped into our vehicles and started toward the object. As we made our way toward the object, it started moving slowly to our left, then it s
for about perhaps three seconds. Moments later the thing darted to the right at an incredible speed and was gone. It vanished in the blink of an eye.”

The three stunned military M.P.s discussed what they saw. They knew the military tended to frown on reporting this type of thing, so the three decided to not report it. Grant adm
he was really rattled, “I was so shaken, that at the end of my shift I had to call my father and reluctantly told him what happened, I had to tell someone.”

It was during the father and son conversation that another account was shared. The father related a sighting of his own while flying on a mission in Vietnam. In Vietnam, UFO
routinely reported simply as enemy helicopters because the North Vietnamese didn’t have helicopters.

Fisherman in Brazil watch UFO with portholes over sea
Date: April, 1958
Location: Brazil
"When the machine was at a distance of some 40 metres from him and the group of fishermen, and about 15 metres above the water, it began to rock sideways, and then stopped and
there. It seemed to have three distinguishable parts: the upper half was the colour of aluminium, like an inverted bowl, and on the top of it was a small protuberance or dome."
"The sketch which accompanied the report."

A BRAZILIAN SIGHTING
by Gordon Creighton
ACCORDING to a report received by General Chassin's saucerresearch organization in Paris (G.E.P.A.), the following very interesting sighting occurred at 6 a.m. one day in April
on the Atlantic seaboard of NorthEastern Brazil. A Brazilian jeweller named Senhor Wilson Lustosa was travelling along the beach from the port of Maceio to a place called Parap
(As I know from personal knowledge of this beautiful coast, there are virtually no roads, and one simply drives for miles along the broad beaches of dazzling white sand). At a spot
Saude, the witness stopped to ask some fishermen what they were looking at. They said that it was a flying saucer. He could see nothing at first, but soon he heard a humming noise
grew rapidly louder, and perceived something which seemed to be falling out of the sky towards him, from the direction of the sea.
When the machine was at a distance of some 40 metres from him and the group of fishermen, and about 15 metres above the water, it began to rock sideways, and then stopped and
there. It was from 15 to 20 metres in height, "and its width was approximately that of a travelling circus". It seemed to have three distinguishable parts: the upper half was the colour
aluminium, like an inverted bowl, and on the top of it was a small protuberance or dome, with a light as bright as that of an electric welding arc. The lower part was also a bowl, of t
same size as the top, but dark in colour, and around the widest part, where the two bowls met, was a band with a number of square portholes, from which came a reddish light. The
portholes nearest to the party of onlookers were darkened, as though there were people looking out through them.
Beneath the machine, the water seemed to be boiling, or being sucked up, but without actually touching the under part of it, and a faint humming could be heard at brief intervals. Fr
the under part of the machine a number of things like leather thongs were hanging, motionless.
During the hour that they stood there and watched it, it rose again several times into the sky and then descended, as if crashing, "with a noise to shatter the eardrums".
This report comes from Senhor Walter Sa Cardoso, of rua Santa Cruz 291, Farol, Maceio, who had it from the eyewitness. I reproduce the sketch which accompanied the report, and
suggest that this craft may be identical with the type photographed off the coast of California by Radio Officer T. Fogl one day in 1957. Radio Officer Fogl's saucer, like the Brazilia
here reported, has things projecting below it, but these seem to be metallic, and certainly nothing like "leather thongs".
This seems to be a type of UFO which has been reported many times. Numerous reports of nightsightings have referred to "turtleshaped" objects, or "jellyfishshaped objects", wit
golden streamers hanging down (the leather thongs?).
I am not quite sure what would be the average Brazilian's idea of "the width of a travelling circus", but evidently this means that it must have seemed to the witness a very big craft,
least 100 feet or so in diameter.

UFO with three beings hovers over boat dock at Minnesota cabin (Lake Movil)
Date: August, 1962
Location: Lake Movil, Minnesota, United States
Marilyn Chenarides and Mrs. Mildred Anderson were vacationing at their cabin on Lake Movil in northern Minnesota when they saw a red glowing object which was hovering over
boat dock 50 feet from the cabin. In two of the windows of the object, the women could see the silhouettes of three manshaped beings. After a few minutes of observation, Mrs. An
switched off the lights in the cabin, whereupon the lights on the object immediately went out.

The 1962 Occupants Case
The National Enquirer recently carried the account of Marilyn Chenarides and Mrs. Miidred Anderson of Grand Forks, North Dakota, who had an unusual experience while vacatio
their cabin on Lake Movil in northern Minnesota. Mrs. Lorenzen contacted Mrs. Chenarides and asked her cooperation in doing an artistic rendering of what they had seen. Mrs.
Chenarides and her mother were most cooperative, and the drawing above by Staff Artist Brian James represents what they observed.
The exact date cannot be recalled but it was an August night in 1962 when Mrs. Anderson was doing her daughter Marilyn's hair. Marilyn's younger brother, Roger, was in bed. Sud
Marilyn became aware of an odd object outside, and both of the women stared out the window at a red glowing object which was hovering over the boat dock 50 feet from the cabin
light from the object made the green painted boat dock appear brownish in color and the water a greenishblack. The side of the object toward the cabin had three windows which w
up by a yellowish light and in two of the windows the women could see the silhouettes of three manshaped beings. The object was hovering over the near end of the dock and appe
be 8 feet high and 35 feet wide.

Both of the women felt that the "men" were watching them and after a few minutes of observation, Mrs. Anderson switched off the lights in the cabin, whereupon the lights on the o
immediately went out. Mrs. Anderson then had an irresistible impulse to approach the object and threw open the door and started running down to the boat dock while her daughter,
almost hysterical, screamed for her to come back. When Mrs. Anderson was halfway to the dock the object lifted slowly in the air, then moved off at an angle and was gone as sudd
it had arrived.

The object, when first seen, seemed to appear out of nowhere. When it extinguished its lights when Mrs. Anderson turned off the cabin's lights, it was a dark blob over the dock so i
be assumed that the object could have been there for some time prior to Mrs. Chenarides' first glimpse of it, and it was called to her attention by the lights being turned on.

Mrs. Chenarides also described an incident which had taken place three weeks prior to the "occupant" sighting. She, her mother and father (Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Anderson) and br
Duane and Roger and the family dog Zipper were driving about 125 miles from their home to the cabin. When they were about 12 miles out of the town of Bagley the dog began to
and Mr. Anderson spotted a large, green luminous object which appeared to be approaching them on a parallel course.

Mr. Anderson said the object wasn't going very fast and he slowed the car and the object passed them. It was approximately 70 away from their car and appeared to be about the hei
a twostory building. It appeared as a long oval, yellowishgreen in color and with a haze or fog around it.

After the object passed the Anderson car Marilyn and Duane watched it out of the rear window until it had passed out of sight. Duane said that they could see the thing hovering ove
bare patch of land for a while, then it moved over a wooded area, made a halfcircular maneuver and disappeared into the woods. They continued to watch but the object was not see
again.

Inquiries indicate that the Andersons are highly respected in their city and by friends and business acquaintances.

Time: 2330
Manoel do Espirito Santo, 20, high school student, local resident, was in front of his house with some friends, Julio, Paulo, Deca and Carlito when he saw a yellow light movin
slowing in speed and stopping about 20meters from the group. He said he could see two crew members inside who appeared to be human, one man and a woman, the “man”
left side and the woman on the right side of the “apparatus” both wore different shape goggles and communication gear (earphones) the one on the left seemed more attentive to the
of witnesses. At the same time, the other, behind a horizontal tube directed a ray of red light toward the group, having been hit directly, it felt like an electric shock, from the
head, then felt paralyzed (arms and legs immobilized) and semiconscious. The object gradually began to move away, gaining altitude and speed. Manoel was able to move again,
numb for some minutes. The object seemed like a reddishyellow star from a distance, it turned more yellow as it came closer. Manoel observed a bluish light in the front top part
the shape of a barrel with a thin tube and another, more slender, horizontal (45 degrees) one which emitted the ray of blue light. The apparent size was 1.20 to 1.40m and g
appearance of being transparent (in the bluish area) with a division between the two crew members. It climbed straight up in a wavy motion, until it reached a certain altitude, a
varying its speed.

Electrician and wife in Indianapolis see domed disc shaped object

It was domed on top, emitted intense orangeyellow light. Beneath the dome, the UFO was silver in color. There was a wide band on which there could have been portholes, and six
eight horizontal bands below it, decreasing in diameter; their width was about 5 feet (1.5 meters) in all. At the bottom of the object was a small revolving disc, and below this what
appeared to be a box or tube, which protruded from the base a short way.

Landing and 'giant' occupant encountered by youth in Virginia
Date: May, 1971
Location: Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States
Walking through a large, open field, a boy with his dog observed a glowing "thing" over a pond located in the open field. The object moved towards the youth, finally stopping near
youth, and slowly settled to the ground. After the craft landed, a door opened straight down toward him and a "man" walked out. According to the witness's description, the creature
"powerfully huge." The being returned to the object, and about ten minutes later the craft "just lifted off."
Sketch by NICAP artist Fanny Phillips depicts encounter on Virginia farm.
NICAP (1971)
The case of the "Virginia Giant" remains unresolved, despite careful checking on many points in the account by NICAP investigators.
Called one of the most interesting cases he has ever worked on by one of the investigators, the story of the "Virginia Giant" is actually a nickname for a pair of sightings, one of them
involving an occupant, which occurred in late May 1971 outside a small rural Virginia community located near Fredericksburg.
According to investigators John Carlson and Bruce Maccabee, who until recently were still gathering data about the alleged sightings, the case was hampered by the very attitude th
made this "occupant" case such an interesting one — the family's strong desire to avoid publicity — a characteristic not always present in cases involving an "occupant."
It was a dark, cloudy night that three boys and a German Shepherd had picked to camp out in a nearby field. Two of the youths had decided to investigate the sound of a car horn he

Walking through the large, open field, the third boy noted that he had a strange feeling that something was behind him. He turned but saw nothing. Moments later he turned again an
observed a glowing "thing" over a pond located in the open field.
The object moved slowly from its position over the pond and moved towards the youth, finally stopping near the youth, and slowly settled to the ground. Before completing its desc
the object, according to the youth, extended "legs" from its underside.
After the craft landed, a door opened straight down toward him and a "man" walked out. According to the witness's description, the creature was "powerfully huge," had long arms a
was shiny in appearance. In one hand it carried a "glowing box."
The creature looked around, then started moving in the youth's direction, who by this time was crouching in the tall grass. The witness's dog allegedly snarled at the "occupant" and
to approach it. The creature turned around in a "stiff, bouncing fashion" and returned to his craft. The door of the craft closed and about ten minutes later the craft "just lifted
The witness was found a few minutes later still crouched in the grass and apparently in shock by his two fellow campers. The witness told his companions of his encounter and all th
quickly returned to their homes.
Two nights later another sighting occurred in the same vicinity. While the second sighting did not involve an occupant, it did add credence to the first sighting, according to the
investigators, because of the large number of witnesses and the similarities in description of the UFO.
Two sisters of the youth who reported the "occupant" were returning home from a night class along the family's long, winding driveway when they became aware of a humming sou

Almost immediately, according to NICAP's file on the case, the car's engine stalled, the headlights went out, and the car radio went off. From inside the car the girls said they could

yards towards home — as they did, the craft continued to follow them.
Attracted outside by the sounds of a car racing up the driveway, two brothers rushed outside to investigate and observed a "gigantic saucershaped thing" following their sister's car
driveway. The object followed the car up to the house and continued to hover above it for a few minutes before finally drifting off and out of sight over the horizon.

The Valentich UFO Mystery
October 21st, 1978. Bass Strait, Australia
The Valentich mystery has endured as an insoluble enigma. The crux of the mystery is just what happened to the young pilot and his 182 Cessna light aircraft VH DSJ (Delta Sie
Juliet) during that October evening. The circumstances behind the total disappearance of both pilot and plane have since been elevated into one of the premier mysteries of aviation
for many one of the most intriguing elements of the UFO phenomenon.
Illustration of the UFO sighted over Hudson Valley
25 years ago on this day Frederick Valentich disappeared over Bass Strait in very strange circumstances. It is a mystery that still has not been explained.
It was the extraordinary disappearance of pilot Frederick Valentich over Bass Strait on October 21st, 1978, that thrust the subject of UFOs into the news headlines around the world.
Valentich mystery has endured as an insoluble enigma. The crux of the mystery is just what happened to the young pilot and his 182 Cessna light aircraft VH DSJ (Delta Sierra Ju
during that October evening. The circumstances behind the total disappearance of both pilot and plane have since been elevated into one of the premier mysteries of aviation and for
one of the most intriguing elements of the UFO phenomenon.
The fact that the mystery has lasted so long is a direct result of the incredible aspects at the heart of the affair. Twenty yearold Frederick Valentich, 47 minutes into what should hav
a routine 69 minute flight from Moorabin, Victoria, to King Island, reported in a radio conversation with Melbourne Flight Service Unit controller, Steve Robey, of seeing an uniden
"aircraft" near him.
The only official report to emerge on the affair was an Aircraft Accident Investigation Summary Report, reference No. V116/783/1047. The basic relevant events and transcript of th
conversation between Valentich and Robey a "radio encounter of a weird kind" included in the report are given here:
The pilot obtained a class Four instrument rating on 11 May 1978 and he was therefore authorised to operate at night in visual meteorological conditions (VMC). On the afternoon o
October 1978 he attended the Moorabbin Briefing Office, obtained a meteorological briefing and, at 1723 hours, submitted a flight plan for a night VMC flight from Moorabbin to K
Island and return. The cruising altitude nominated in the flight plan was below 5000 feet, with estimated time intervals of 41 minutes to Cape Otway and 28 minutes from Cape Otw
King Island. The total fuel endurance was shown at 300 minutes. The pilot made no arrangements for aerodrome lighting to be illuminated for his arrival at King Island. He
briefing officer and the operator's representative that he was uplifting friends at King Island and took four life jackets in the aircraft with him.
The aircraft was refuelled to capacity at 1810 hours and departed Moorabbin at 1819 hours. After departure the pilot established twoway radio communication with Melbourne Flig
Service Unit (FSU).
Valentich reported in this transmission that "a large aircraft" appeared below him, then apparently passed over his aircraft. He felt it was an "unknown aircraft" particularly because
apparent speed. It approached him from the east and seemed to be "playing some sort of game", "flying over me two three times at speeds I could not identify". Frederick Valentich
emphasised, "It's not an aircraft ... it's flying past, it's a long shape." Then he described, "it seems like its stationary.
What I'm doing right now is orbiting and the thing is just orbiting on top of me also it's got a green light and sort of metallic (like) it's all shiny (on) the outside." One minute later
Valentich said the object was approaching his aircraft from the Southwest. Then the Cessna's engine started rough idling. Frederick Valentich's last transmission was, "...that strange
aircraft is hovering on top of me again. It is hovering and it's not an aircraft." 17 seconds of open microphone followed with metallic like sounds hear, perhaps like the rapid keying
plane's microphone, and then silence. An intensive air, sea and land search followed over the next 4 days. No trace of pilot or plane was ever found.
The weather in the Cape Otway area was clear with a trace of stratocumulus cloud at 5000 to 7000 feet, scattered cirrus cloud at 30000 feet, excellent visibility and light winds. The
daylight at Cape Otway was at 1918 hours.
The Alert Phase of SAR procedures was declared at 1912 hours and, at 1933 hours when the aircraft did not arrive at King Island, the Distress Phase was declared and search action
commenced. An intensive air, sea and land search was continued until 25 October 1978, but no trace of the aircraft was found.
The official report also refers to the following points:
Location of occurrence: Not known
Time: Not known
Degree of injury: presumed fatal
Opinion as to cause (of "Aircraft Accident"): The reason for the disappearance of the aircraft has not been determined
Steve Robey, the FSU or Flight Service Unit radio controller, who spoke with Valentich during those 6 minutes leading up to his disappearance, said in a Melbourne Herald intervie
"I think at first he was a little concerned about this other aircraft flying around him, and of course I had to assume that it was another aircraft until it developed and became a little
mysterious. Towards the end I think he was definitely concerned for his safety; I considered that he would have had to have been a good actor to have put it all together the way he d
Robey did not believe he had talked to a disorientated pilot,
"It was as though he was looking around for this thing as he was speaking on the radio ... a young fellow with little experience; it was getting dark, and visual reference to the groun
fading. In a situation like this, if this is what happened, it is understandable he is getting a little bit uptight.
"It was a kind of rushed communication ... it was as if he was startled... he was definitely concerned ... it sounded as though it was rattling him."
Apart from a very early attempt to suggest that Frederick Valentich may have been flying upside down, totally disorientated, with lighthouse lights producing his perception of an
"unidentified aircraft", the Australian Department of Aviation has never officially addressed the question of what Valentich may have been observing prior to his disappearance.
I tried to extract from the Department their opinion.
At first the then Assistant Secretary (Air Safety Investigation), Mr. G.V. Hughes, advised me that he was not clear as to what was meant by my expression, "...the stimulus of Valent
apparent UFO observation..."
"However, a great deal of consideration has been given to what Mr. Valentich might have been looking at when he described his observations. A considerable number of suggestions
been put forward by persons inside and outside this Department. All have been examined. The Department is not aware of any other official body having undertaken such an
into this occurrence," Mr. Hughes wrote.
However, when it came to an official investigation of a possible UFO connection, a veritable bureaucratic "Catch22" loomed large. Mr. Hughes advised me, "As you correctly state
RAAF is responsible for the investigation of reports concerning 'UFO' sightings, and liaison was established with the RAAF on these aspects of the investigation. The decision as to
whether or not the 'UFO' report is to be investigated rests with the RAAF and not with this Department."
At the time I was fortunately in a position to get a clearer picture of the RAAF role in the Valentich case. I had been given unprecedented direct access to the RAAF files. During my
detailed explorations of the files in a number of visits to the Department of Defence in Canberra, I did not come across any documentation on the Valentich affair. The RAAF Intelli
Liaison Officer DAFI told me that the RAAF did not investigate the affair because they were not asked to by the Department of Aviation! The RAAF saw it as more appropriately
domain of an "air accident/air safety" enquiry. The Intelligence officer also volunteered that his personal opinion was that pilot disorientation was involved.
In November, 1982, I was finally given official permission to examine the Department of Aviation UFO files, but was specifically denied access to the Valentich files on the ground
they were Air Accident Investigation files and not UFO files. Mr. Hughes of Air Safety elaborated,
"The file concerning this occurrence is no more or less restricted than any other accident investigation file. As a signatory to the International Convention on Civil Aviation, we subs
to the Standards and Recommended Practices contained in Annex 13 to the Convention, in respect of aircraft accident investigation, specifically, when it is considered that the disclo
of records, for the purposes other than accident prevention, might have an adverse effect on the availability of information in that or any future investigation, such records are consid
privileged."
While in Melbourne examining the Aviation Department's UFO files, I was able to have a lengthy discussion on the Valentich affair with Mr. A. Woodward, the signatory on the off
Aircraft Accident Investigation Summary Report, dated May 27th, 1982. He largely reiterated the official department line, emphasising that they were treating the matter as only an
accident" investigation. He dwelt on a long list of prosaic explanations ranging from diorientation, suicide, to the unlikely prospect of the plane being struck by a meteorite, but conc
that the affair was still unresolved.
Dr. Richard Haines, was a research scientist with NASA and an aircraft accident investigator, as well as an active UFO researcher, particularly in cases involving pilot witnesses. He
a particular interest in the Valentich incident. He was given access to the tape of the incident and undertook studies of it. He was not able to definitively identify the unusual sounds
appeared in the final 17 seconds of open microphone communications with Valentich. A metalliclike sound is noticeable. Dr. Haines found they were similar to the sound produced
rapid keying of the microphone, but control testing did not confirm this absolutely. He published a book based on his study of the affair, MELBOURNE EPISODE Case study of a
missing pilot. He included 4 hypothetical accounts of what might have happened, namely "pilot disorientation/crash/death", "deliberate pilot hoax", "actual UFO inflight abduction
"military weapons test". While Dr. Haines seems to have favoured the final "hypothesis", in reality the evidence for it is slight and speculative.
Many people reported seeing UFOs on the same day and during the night of Valentich's disappearance. A number of these reports are difficult to reconcile with the hysteria and pub
that escalated rapidly over the affair, elevating it to an international sensation. Some 15 or more distinct sightings survived the gauntlet of civilian group investigations. They all occ
between midday and 9 pm, on October 21st. Six occurred in Victoria, one on King Island, and the rest in New South Wales, Tasmania and South Australia. These reports seemed to
confirm that something quite unusual was abroad that extraordinary day.
A strange series of photos taken out over Bass Strait, by Roy Manifold, a plumber on holidays at Crayfish Bay, near Apollo Bay, only some 20 minutes before Valentich began desc
his encounter, revealed something unusual. He had taken 6 photos of the setting sun. He saw nothing untoward, with the camera set to automatically take the photo series, but upon
development the fourth and sixth photos revealed apparent anomalies. The fourth photo showed what looked like a dense "black lump" in the water, giving the impression of someth
rising from the water. The fifth photo appeared normal. The sixth shows a strange mass situated in the sky directly over the position of the anomaly in the fourth photo, which looke
an object caught in flight with a possible exhaust or trail of material. Film faults and processing defects were ruled out. The RAAF suggested a cumulus cloud breaking up, but the t
of the exposures would have required the "cloud" to have moved into view at a speed of up to 200 mph. Now that's some cloud for what was a calm day!

Large reddish disc seen at close range in Draguignan, France
Date: March 29, 1971
Location: Draguignan, France
Two young men from Draguignan named Pierre Calafat and Andre Bouchaud, members of a dance band, go to an isolated house which they have rented. When they drive up to the
they observe a large reddish disc, flying around above a vineyard beside the house, about 150 metres from them. They park and watch the UFO performing zigzag movements, and
see it come to a halt at a height of ten metres or so above the ground and only about 50 metres from them.

[excerpt from article]
MANY investigators of the UFO phenomenon have already noted that certain places seem to be more favoured than others by this type of manifestation. Examples of such socalled
"repeatercases," or "repeaterplaces," have been emphasised by Jacques Vallee in the USA, by Aime Michel in France, and by Antonio Ribera in Spain.
Lumieres Dans La Nuit has carried material concerning certain regions in the Departement of Doubs (extreme eastern frontier of France, adjoining Switzerland) which seem to be
frequently overflown by UFOs, or which have been the scene of particularly interesting landing cases.
We have now discovered a similar site in the vicinity of Draguignan, in the Departement of Var (S.E. France). Lumieres Dans La Nuit (Contact Ixctcurs) No. 4, November 1971, car
excellent report by Messieurs Jean Chasseigne and Francois Moll1 on one of the Draguignan sightings, which had taken place on March 29, 1971.
I will recapitulate the facts briefly: two young men from Draguignan named Pierre Calafat and Andre Bouchaud, members of a dance band, go to an isolated house which they have
for the purpose of practising there. On the evening in question, these two are the first to arrive. As soon as they start to drive up the little road leading to the house, they notice a
light overhead. Then they observe a large reddish disc, having the shape of a plate, flying around above a vineyard situated beside the house and at a distance of some 150 metres fro
them (Photo I). They park in the forecourt and watch the UFO performing zigzag movements, and then see it come to a halt at a height of ten metres or so above the ground and onl
50 metres from them. Then, two minutes later, the craft performed a roll and headed away towards Flayosc, which is in the same direction from Les Nourradons as Valensolc.
It was not until September II, 1971, that we found the traces left by this UFO (Photos 2, 3, 4, 5).
These traces are in the field which adjoins the vineyard on the north. The grass there is long, of the graminaceous sort, and very thick. When we found the marks they were so fresh
that they could not have been made in March, but much later, and in any case they could not in all probability have been more than two weeks old. The chief mark is a perfect circle
diameter of 5'6O metres. Inside this circle the grass is discoloured. The vegetation is flattened only along the periphery of this circle, or, to be more precise, the grass is swept in an a
clockwise sense. The width of this flattened ring is about 06 metre (see photo No. 1). "Inere were no holes in ihe ground, and no marks that would indicate that an actual landing
occurred. To the east of this principal mark there was a second circle, about one metre in diameter, and presenting the same discoloration of the grass. The distance between the larg
and the small one was one metre. A Geiger check for radioactivity gave a zero reading.
In the vineyard itself, we found no burn marks.
Two trees, an almondtree and a cherrytree, were dead—still in bud. But as the analysis has not yet been carried out, we do not know whether these two trees died of some disease,
result of the UFO flyover of March 1971.
While looking through the archives of the newspaper Le Provencal (Var edition) we found a UFO sighting report of 1965. Ami the place overflown is the same....
So it looks as though there might bs a good many areas in which the UFOs have the greatest interest. We shall have taken a big step forward when we are able to know what it is tha
attracts them to these places. In the meantime, we are going to concentrate our UFO detectors on this area of Les Nourradons, which has been the scene of a wave—or perhaps one s
say, a "cluster"since 1966. Maybe we shall get some valuable information. At least, that is, if our unobtrusive visitors are good enough to let us have the necessary time for it.

Milakovic family encounter, Hanbury, England
Location: Hanbury, England, United Kingdom
A large, housesized object witnessed by a family. It had a dark bowlshaped bottom, with a clear dome on top. In the lit dome area, several humanoid figures were seen moving. Tw
physiological effects were reported: heat felt as object passed over and burning of the eyes when its light intensity increased.

Figures Seen on UFO
The small, dank mining town of Hednesford, Staffordshire, England, lies near the southern end of Cannock Chase. Mr. and Mrs. Milin Milakovic and their 11 children live at 432 C
Road. On the afternoon of November 20, 1968, the Yugoslavian couple and their 11year old son, Slavic, left Hednesford on a househunting trip. They journeyed through the Engli
countryside to Rugeley, Abbots Bromley, and stopped at Hanbury to view Hanbury Hall.
Hanbury, on the StaffordshireDerbyshire border, is midway between Uttoexter and BurtononTrent. Three and onehalf miles to the northwest is Central Workshop 32 R.E.M.E., a
installation. Two miles to the northwest is a Royal Air Force station, used as an ammunition dump "and there are very vague rumors that nuclear weapons are stored there." Three m
the south is a World War IT airfield, used by the Ind Coope brewery firm for light aircraft.
On the road home, the Milakovics stopped just outside Hanbury to look at an old house for sale. As they continued on, dusk was rapidly approaching. It was between 5:30 and 5:45
The couple saw a rabbit scurry across the road, followed by a number of other rabbits from a hedge on the left side of the road. Glancing to the left, the witnesses saw a brilliant obje
the field. Milakovic stopped the car as the UFO rose slowly and flew over the car. The couple got out of the automobile and watched as the object moved over a field on the right
the road toward a house about 100 yards away. As it got over the house, it stopped, hovered, and quivered "like a jelly."
Doris Milakovic said that the air temperature appeared considerably warmer as the UFO flew overhead, but, as it moved on, the temperature dropped. She also said that the object lo
"as wide as the house."
For approximately five minutes, Mrs. Milakovic, her husband and son saw what appeared to be several humanoid figures walking across the bright top of the UFO. Intermittently, "s
of the figures were seen to bend down as though looking at something in the part of the object below the rim. .. ."
Then the object began moving up in a "pulsating or jerky" movement Its light intensity greatly increased and Milakovic felt his eyes were burning.
Thoroughly frightened, Milakovic, normally a brave man, pushed his wife and son into the car and sped away from the scene.
N. M. H. Turner and W. Daniels investigated the report.

UFO with occupants approaches witness and hovers over farm
Date: June 14, 1974
Location: Medellin, Spain
Santiago Pulido Romero, 46, was going to his father's farm when he saw an object flying at low level. It was "round on the bottom and with a sort of coneshaped tower on top." Wh
switched his car lights on, the object came towards him at very high speed, only to move away from he turned out the lights. Inside the craft, Santiago could see three tall men, "who
seemed to be holding on to some sort of control levers" and wearing helmets.

[excerpt from article]
UFO and occupants near Medellin
The month of June produced yet another "creatures" case. It was published in the Madrid evening paper Pueblo of June 22, written by a journalist by name of J.M. Amilibia. Sr. Gue
adds that Sr. Amilibia specialises in reporting on UFO sightings for Pueblo, and seems honest and sincere. He also wrote to the witness, but did not expect a reply, since he is a simp
peasant and may not be able to write. This was the newspaper report:
"Santiago Pulido Romero, 46, married, the father of six children, born in and a resident of Medellin (Badajoz), a sunburned and weatherbeaten outdoorsman, is the witness in a fan
story, which he willingly tells to both sceptics and believers alike. Santiago isn't bothered by public derision, and if you tell him he's crazy, he doesn't mind. He really doesn't
he himself would have laughed just a few days ago if someone else had told him the same story that he now tells.
He told me his story on the spot where it took place. In front of us, we can see the Castle of Medellin, on top of a meseta, an important landmark in our history, where Calderon de la
wrote his famous work 'Life is but a Dream.' We are now in a claycoloured field; to our right is a clump of trees.
"The affair took place at 5.30 a.m. on June 14, 1974, and according to Santiago, this simple man who is completely balanced, and would seem incapable of such invention, says: 'Th
morning (it was still dark), I was going to my father's farm, and on passing that clump of trees, I was hit in the eyes by a strong light. I saw a funnylooking contraption flying at a
level, some 100 metres above the ground, I suppose. It was travelling at an unbelievable speed, as fast as my sight could follow it. It was on one side of the castle, and as it seemed t
coming towards me. I became so frightened that I thought that I'd jump out of my skin. Then I switched off my car lights and continued on in second gear, going very slow. I was
all over. Listen! You just can't imagine what a tremendous impression a thing like that makes on a man! I'd just like to see another man in my shoes at a time like that to see how he'
The thing is that this apparatus followed me for about 70 metres on my right, and when I got to that hill over there, 1 switched the lights of my car back on, and the apparatus came
towards me again at very high speed but only to fade off when I turned out the lights. I got to the farm and noticed that it stayed near the door, about 100 metres off the ground, mov
upwards and downwards at times. My first thought was to lock myself up in the house, and I did just this. Then, after having recovered a bit, I came out with a pitchfork in
case...you can imagine how frightened I was; so much so, in fact, that I was thinking of taking to the mountains where I know a few good spots to hide out...'
"He still shows the remains of that panic on his countenance. Santiago speaks perfectly clearly, telling us what he saw, step by step. At times, he shakes with emotion as the chill of
reminds him of the experience...
" 'When I came out of the house, it was standing still over the farm. The light it gave off was so intense that it looked like daytime. It was precisely then that I got the idea of focusin
headlights on it in order to see what was going on. Then the thing headed for me like a bat out of hell; I turned out the lights again and it stayed quiet for a moment and then began t
move up and down.'
" 'How did the apparatus move?' I asked him.
" 'At very high speed and spinning in the same spot, although at times, it zigzagged or remained still, or swayed like a pendulum of a clock. For a moment it would look like a star, a
then, in the next moment, it was right there beside me. At times it seemed to me to move like a whirlwind, you know what I mean? — like an incredible maelstrom...Well, it's just th
haven't the ability to explain it; words fail me!'
"What shape was it?'
" 'Round on the bottom and with a sort of coneshaped tower on top. The round part was transparent and a great yellow light came from inside it. The tower shone and looked like a
structure.'
"You say it was transparent. Did you see anything inside when it drew near to you?'
" 'Yes. I could see three men clearly. Three very tall men, more than two metres tall, who seemed to be holding on to some sort of control levers, and they were wearing some sort of
helmets on their heads. They were standing up. Listen, man, this was really something to see!'
helmets on their heads. They were standing up. Listen, man, this was really something to see!'
"How big do you think the thing was?'
" 'The round part was about 20 metres in diameter; the tower, about 10 metres high.'
"Did it make any special kind of sound?'
" 'No. It moved in complete silence.'
"How long did you observe it from the farm?'
" 'Well, I'd say until the sun began to go down, around sevenish. It was then that it headed off towards Villaneuva at a tremendous speed. When my children arrived at the farm, I wa
pallid, as while as a ghost...If I live to be a thousand, I'll never forget that experience! Never, never, never. I swear that it was a terrible thing. You and all the rest can believe me or n
all the same to me. I know it is true and that's all that matters. I was always very sceptical about such things; I used to think that they were the inventions of idlers and dreamers, just
of nonsense. But now 1 know that there's something to it.'
"What do you think it is?'
" 'Beings from other worlds. What I saw, that apparatus thing, is not from this world because there cannot be anything even similar. Well, at least, this is what I believe...because I ne
saw the likes of such.'
"What was the closest you came to it?*
" 'About 50 metres. It was awful, simply frightening. And so silent and so brilliant. Now I've stopped going out of the house in the early hours of the morning. Now I wait for the su
come out before going to the farm.'
"This is the testimony of Santiago Pulido. But then there were others from Medellin who also saw it. For example, there was a young boy, going to Medellin from La Oliva, who saw
from the road, as well as two residents of San Benito. They also say that two traffic policemen from Medellin told their families that they had seen it too. At any rate, it is a testimon
worth investigating. One more story to add to all of the others..."

Woman observes diskshaped object moving over field in daylight
Date: July 4, 1973
Location: West Springfield, Massachusetts, United States
On the evening of July 4, 1973, Cecile (age approximately early 70's) was sitting on her patio having a smoke while her husband showered. As she sat, she noticed movement from
peripheral view (north east). She then observed a large, disk shaped object descending from just above the tree line into the field. It then rose slowly, just high enough to clear trees,
slowly to the south and disappeared from sight. The witness had an unobstructed view of the object from a distance of 300 feet, in daylight.

Mr. and Mrs. Thew were returning to Temuka (New Zealand) from Pleasant Point with their three daughters when a multicoloured flying object paced them along the Waitohi Road
early hours of the morning of July 12, 1981, approaching to within 120 yards of their car and changing colours as it went. It was estimated to be around 32ft in diameter, with a heig
15ft, and with windows around the object.

By BILL DAVEY
A family had a bizarre close encounter on a day out—with two UFOs.
The first flying saucer put butcher David McMurray and wife Susan in a spin when it hovered in front of their car.
Minutes later a second "spacecraft" flew into view—and now the strange sightings are being probed by experts.
David and Susan were driving home across Bagshot Heath, Surrey, to Famborough, Hampshire, with their two children Paul, 5, and Katie, 18 months.
David, 35, said: "I saw something hovering above the road In front of us. I could not believe my eyes.
"It was a huge saucerlike craft about 50ft. long with brilliant lights coming from portholes around the centre. Then it suddenly took off." When a second craft began to tail the fami
David stopped, got out and went to Investigate. But it too, took off.
David said: "The whole family were weak and trembling for days afterwards."
Susan, 25, a hairdresser, said: "When David tried to start his car the battery was drained." She added: "I saw the two things with my own eyes. It was an incredible experience."
One UFO was also spotted five miles away by salesgirl Lyn Brookes. 24. of Wokingham, Berkshire.
She said: "It hovered in one spot for about five minutes.
"I was really frightened. It was as if it was watching me."
Now David has sketched the strange craft and is sending his drawing to the Ministry of Defence who are to investigate.
UFO expert Omar Fowler, 54. has also seen the drawing and said: "I have no doubt this report is genuine."
Heathrow Airport say none of the strange craft could have been planes.

Betty and Barney Hill Abduction Case
Location: Exeter, New Hampshire, United States
The first abduction case to be brought to the publics attention was back in 1961. Betty and Barney Hill reported seeing a UFO and experienced a period of missing time while on a l
car journey. Under hypnosis they both seperatly described how they were abducted by aliens and shown around the spacecraft before under going medical examinations. Betty also
of the origin of the aliens which were of the zeta reticuli system but at that time it wasn't discovered until 1969.

NICAP 1972)
BETTY , BARNY HILL OLAYI
İnsanların dünya dışı zeki yaratıklar tarafından uzay gemilerinde alıkonulması yeni bir olgu değildir. Bu olayların en önemlilerinden biri Bety ve Barney Hill’in 19 Eylül 1961’de A
New Hampshire’de yaşadıkları olaydır. Olayın yaşandığı sırada Barney 39, Betty ise 41 yaşındaydı.
Karıkoca White Dağlarındaki US 3 karayolundan, Portsmouth, New Hampshire’deki evlerine dönüyorlardı. Düzensiz bir biçimde hareket eden ve bir sürü renkten oluşmuş ışıklar s
cismi ilk Betty farketmişti. Cisme dürbünle ve çıplak gözle bakıp ne olduğunu görebilmek için birkaç kez kısa bir süreliğine arabalarını durdurdular.
Derken aniden cisim onlara doğru yaklaşmaya başladı ve o anda oradakinin disk şeklinde, pencereli bir araç olduğunu fark ettiler. Barney, o anda sadece 150 m. ötelerinde sessizce
durmakta olan aracın içindeki üniforma benzeri kıyafetli varlıkları ve arkalarındaki kontrol panelini görebiliyordu. Araç yere yaklaştıkça, iki yanındaki kırmızı ışıklı yüzgece benzey
yüzeyi de görülebiliyordu. Tam bu sırada, Barney gördüğü bir figürden dehşete kapılıp, çığlık atarak park ettiği aracına doğru koşmaya başladı. Betty ve Barney, koşmaya başlamala
birkaç saniye sonra duydukları bip sesiyle ürpererek uykulu bir hale geçtiler. Kendilerine geldiklerinde en son bulundukları yerden 55 km. ötede olduklarını farkettiler, fakat hiçbir ş
hatırlamıyorlardı. Saatleri de durmuştu.
Hill’ler eve varıp huzursuz bir uykuya daldıktan sonra Barney boyun ağrısıyla uyandı, ayrıca botlarının çok kötü bir şekilde aşınmış olduklarını fark etti. Betty, tüm arka yüzeyi parl
spotlarla kaplı bir araçla ilgili görüntüler anımsamaya başladı. Çift, bir önceki gece yaşadıkları hakkında tekrar konuştuktan sonra Pease Hava Kuvvetleri’ne göndermek üzere bir do
hazırladılar fakat gördükleri varlıklarla ilgili tüm ayrıntıları bildirmekten çekindiler.
Olaydan 2 hafta sonra, Betty, yaşadığı karşılaşmayla ilgili ve varlıklar tarafından tıbbi incelemeden geçirildiğine dair rüyalar görmeye başladı, Bu rüyalar günlerce devam etti. Birka
sonra sivil bir araştırmacının şahitlerle yaptığı görüşme sonrasında, çiftin Kanada’dan Portsmouth’a normalden en az 2 saat daha geç vardıkları anlaşıldı. Kaybolan zamanın
hatırlanabilmesi için kendilerine hipnoz yaptırmaları önerildi.
Dr. Benjamin Simon’ın Hipnoz Uygulamaları:
Barney’in sağlığı kötüye gitmeye başlamıştı; ülser, bitkinlik ve yüksek kan basıncı rahatsızlığının işiyle bağlantılı olarak geliştiği düşünülüyordu. Ayrıca kasıklarına yakın bir yerde
siğiller üremişti. O gece olanlar her ikisinin de kafasından çıkmıyordu. Bu strese daha fazla dayanamayıp Psikiyatr Dr. Duncan Stephens’ın tavsiyesiyle kendilerine geriye dönüşlü h
uygulaması için Boston’lu önde gelen bir psikiyatr olan Dr. Benjamin Simon’a başvurdular. Bunun üzerine 1963 yılında Betty ve Barney’ye ayrı ayrı pekçok seans uygulandı.
Ayrı ayrı her ikisi de araca alındıkları anı hatırladılar. Bu aracın içinden gelen bip sesini duyduktan hemen sonra olmuştu. Hill’ler, kendilerini kaçıranlarla telepatik olarak iletişim
kurabildiklerini hatırladılar. Bunlar insana benzer, büyük gözlü varlıklardı ve çene üstünde ağız olduğunu tahmin ettikleri ufak, yarığa benzer bir çizgi vardı. Kendilerini alokoyan k
kedi gözlü, ufak tefek varlıklardı. Onların aralarındaki uzun olanını Betty grubun lideri olarak algılamıştı. Betty, onun diğerlerini kontrol ettiğini biliyor, fakat onu tarif edemiyordu,
hafızasının o bölümünde bir engel vardı. Sadece onun farklı olduğunu söyleyebiliyordu.
Barney, kasıklarının etrafında dairesel bir aygıt yerleştirildiğini söylerken Betty de göbeğine uzun iğneler sokulduğunu hatırladı. Kendisine bunun hamilelik testi olduğu söylenmişti
Betty’nin tarif ettiği bu tür bir hamilelik testi dünya tıppında tam 25 yıl sonra keşfedilecek ve kullanılmaya başlanacaktı. Çift arabalarına döndüğünde, köpeklerinin koltuğun altına
saklandığını ve çok korkmuş bir halde olduğunu görmüşlerdi. Daha sonra cisim, portakal renkli bir küre gibi parıldayarak uzaklaşmıştı.
Yıldız Haritası:
Sonraki bir hipnoz seansında, Betty kendisine gösterilmiş olan araştırmacılar arasında geniş tartışmalara yol açan yıldız haritasından bahsetti. Bu harita Zeta Retucillinin de bulundu
takım yıldız grubuna benziyordu.
Betty ve Barney Hill’in başından geçenlerle ilgili iki önemli nokta pek çok araştırmacının gözünde olayın inanılırlığını sağlamıştır. Birincisi; Betty Hill’in hipnoz sonrasında çizdiği
haritasıdır. Betty bunun kendisine varlıkların lideri tarafından gösterildiğini söylemişti. Daha sonra harita üzerinde yapılan analizle, bunun dünyanın 30 ışık yılı uzağında bulunan Z
Retucili yıldız sistemini gösterdiği ortaya çıkmıştı. Bu yıldızlar 1969 yılında basılan katalog çıkana kadar bilinmiyordu, başka bir değişle katalog Hill’lerin karşılaşmasından 8
basıldı.
Diğer önemli olay, Betty Hill’in ulusal bir TV programında yalan makinesi testine tabi tutulmasıdır. Kendisine Yıldız Haritasıyla ilgili bilgiyi dünyadışı bir varlıktan alıp almadığı,
anlattığı şeylerin yalan olup olmadığı sorulmuş ve Betty’nin verdiği cevapların yalan makinesi tarafından değerlendirilmesi sonucunda çok yüksek bir doğruluk gösterdiği kaydedilm
O ve Barney gerçekten de sivil haklar ve yerel kilise hareketlerinde aktif görev alan güvenilir ve saygın vatandaşlardı. Böylece, Betty’nin çizdiği Yıldız Haritasının şaşırtıcı
sonuçlarını takiben hem hipnoz seanslarıyla hem de yalan makinesi testiyle Hill çiftinin doğruyu söyledikleri ispatlanmış oldu

Two discshaped UFOs seen by marine engineer in Holland
Location: Kerkrade, Netherlands
On the night of August 67, 1952, Will Jansen, a marine engineer and designer, was visiting in Kerkrade, Holland. Just after midnight a discshaped craft with visible superstructure
swooped down to low altitude, hovered, zigzagged and sped away. A second discshaped UFO, similar in outline, was then seen hovering farther away. Finally it tilted up vertically
shot up out of sight.

Technician watches glowing white UFO near Larson AFB
Location: Larson AFB, Moses Lake, Washington, United States
An instrument technician, while driving from a large city toward an Air Force base on December 22, 1952, saw an object from his car at 1930 hours. It suddenly moved up toward t
zenith in spurts from right to left at an angle of about 45°. It then moved off in level flight at a high rate of speed, during which maneuver it appeared white most of the time, but
apparently rolled three times showing a red side.

An instrument technician, while driving from a large city toward an Air Force base on December 22, 1952, saw an object from his car at 1930 hours. He stopped his car to watch it.
suddenly moved up toward the zenith in spurts from right to left at an angle of about 45°. It then moved off in level flight at a high rate of speed, during which maneuver it appeared
most of the time, but apparently rolled three times showing a red side. About halfway through its roll it showed no light at all. It finally assumed a position to the south of the planet
Jupiter at a high altitude, at which position it darted back and forth, left and right alternately. Total time of the observation was 15 minutes. Apparently, the observer just stopped wa

Location: Bexley, United Kingdom
It was July 17, 1955 when Margaret Fry spotted the object as she was making her way to her GP's surgery in King Harold's Way from her home in Hythe Avenue. Mrs Fry described
saucer shaped with a "blue/silver/grey/pewter texture, yet none of those colours". She said it had three spheres set into its base, one of which "flopped out", landing on the ground at
junction of nearby Ashbourne and Whitfield roads.

Flying saucer’s famous landing
By Linda Piper
Memories of Bexley's most spectacular UFO sighting have been turned into a book by one of the people who witnessed it. LINDA PIPER reports.
IT WAS July 17, 1955 when Margaret Fry spotted the object as she was making her way to her GP's surgery in King Harold's Way from her home in Hythe Avenue.
Both she and her doctor Dr Thukarta, and around a dozen children playing in the street, saw the strange craft.
Mrs Fry described it as saucer shaped with a "blue/silver/grey/pewter texture, yet none of those colours".
She said it had three spheres set into its base, one of which "flopped out", landing on the ground at the junction of nearby Ashbourne and Whitfield roads.
The children went over for a closer look before it rose into the sky and disappeared from view after a few minutes.
News Shopper ran an appeal in 2002 for any of the children to come forward.
Rodney Maynard, who was in his 60s and living in Belvedere, remembered the incident vividly.
He was 15 at the time and working as a labourer on the building site in nearby Streamway.

Mr Maynard said: "We were on our lunch break when we heard something was happening in King Harold's Way. So we went up there to have a look.
"This thing had landed in the road."
He added: "It took up the whole width of the road and overlapped onto the pavements.
"It wasn't on the ground. It had about eight massive suckers.
"The centre was still, but the outer rim was spinning slowly and it had white lights flashing, like a camera flash."
He said there were about 30 people watching it and they could hear it humming.
Mr Maynard recalled: "It had what looked like windows, but the glass was concave and moulded together so you could not see in.
"A couple of us went forward to try and touch it, and it began to spin faster."
He said the craft then lifted slowly, tilting lightly and hovered above their heads.
Then it moved slowly until it was over Bedonwell Primary School, where it hovered again for about a minute.
Mr Maynard said: "It shot up into the sky and disappeared."
He says his brother, who was 16 at the time, also saw it.
Mr Maynard says the craft was "black, sleek and streamlined, with a surface like polished metal".
He added: "It was very fine and beautiful. It wasn't a prank."
Mr Maynard said he had never forgotten the experience but did not talk about it because "people would think you were barmy".
He said he and his friends used to talk about it among themselves, "but our mums kept telling us we had not seen anything".
Mrs Fry, now in her late 70s, now lives in Abergele in north Wales.
She relives the experience in her book entitled Who Are They? and gives details of other UFO sightings in the Bexley and Kent areas.
Mrs Fry has also been helping UFO enthusiast and retired policeman John Hanson with his books on the subject.
He has been trying to track down other witnesses to the July 1955 incident, some of whom were named by Mr Maynard as Ron Deadman, Tony Savin, Vic Clarke and Tommy Stagg

The KellyHopkinsville 'Goblins' Encounter

The KellyHopkinsville Case
August 21 22, 1955
Kelly is a small town, and Hopkinsville a small city, both located in rural Christian County in southwestern Kentucky. "Lucky" Sutton's family farm was located nearer to Kelly, but
nearest police were in Hopkinsville. Thus, this case acquired the name KellyHopkinsville.

At around 7.00 P.M. on August 21, a visiting Pennsylvania man named Billy Ray Taylor went out to fetch some water from the Sutton family well. While he was at the well, he saw
large shining object land in a gully about a city block away. He went back inside and told the others, but they laughed and didn't believe him.

A short time later the family dog began barking wildly outside, so Carl "Lucky" Sutton and Billy Ray grabbed their guns and went out to investigate. They had walked a few yards f
the front door when they saw a small 3to4 foot creature walking towards them with its hands up, as if surrendering. They later described the creature as having large eyes, a long th
mouth, large ears, thin short legs, and hands ending in claws.

In a rural area in the 1950s, folks were likely to shoot first and ask questions later if they felt threatened. Even though the creature seemed to be peaceful, Billy Ray fired a shot at it
his .22, and Lucky blasted away with his shotgun. They couldn't possibly have missed the creature at that range, but it just did a quick back flip and ran quickly into the woods,
unharmed.

Billy Ray and Lucky returned to the house, but before they could tell the others what had happened, the creature, or another one like it, appeared in front of a window. They shot at h
through the screen, leaving a hole that investigators noticed later. When the men went outside to see if they had killed the creature, they found nothing. As they looked, one of the
creatures, from the roof of the house, reached down to touch one of the men's hair. They shot at it, but it just floated to the ground and then ran off into the woods.

They went back inside and soon the house was under siege by a group of the creatures. The seven adults and four children in the house at the time were terrified as creature after cre
appeared at windows around the house, seemingly taunting them. The men's guns were totally ineffective against the creatures.

After about three hours of this, the family decided to make a run for it. They piled into two vehicles and drove down to the local police station to report the event, arriving at about 1
P.M.. When police officers were finally persuaded to go to the farm and investigate, they could find no evidence of the strange events except for gunshot holes in the windows and
According to reports, Sheriff Russell Greenwell was among the twentyfive or so law enforcement officers investigating the scene and the family who had told this wild tale. By all
accounts, the witnesses were determined to be sane, not drinking, and in such a state of terror that no one who talked to them doubted that they had seen something unusual. Neighb
reported hearing the shooting, and one person had seen "lights in the sky" earlier that evening.

Shortly after the police left, at about 2:15 A.M., the creatures returned. As before, they began staring into windows, curious but not hostile. Again the men responded with gunfire, a
again it had no effect. This ordeal continued until a half an hour before sunrise. On the morning of the 22nd, the police, along with the Air Force, investigated but again found nothin
Billy Ray and Lucky weren't there, having driven to Evansville, Indiana to take care of some sort of business. The Hopkinsville newspaper, The Kentucky New Era, carried the story
8/22/55.

Many people believe this case to be a complete hoax. If it was then it has to be one of the biggest and most useless hoaxes in ufology to date. The family made no money from the in
and did not want any publicity at the time. They had to make extensive repairs to the house which cost them a considerable sum of money for that year. In the course of shooting at t
creatures, Billy Ray and Lucky had shot up the house pretty well. All seven adults told the same story with no contradictory evidence in their statements. Sketches of the creatures b
on descriptions from different witnesses matched closely. Their stories were unwavering a year later when a thorough investigation of the case was conducted by Isabel Davis.
No evidence of a hoax has ever been revealed in this case, and the Suttons still insisted that it was true years later. Now, over forty years later, it's likely that many, if not all, of the S
who were adults at the time have gone to their graves without changing their story.

Noted astronomer and UFOlogist J. Allen Hynek took the story seriously because he discussed the case with two of the principal investigators of the story: Bud Ledwith, an enginee
radio station in Hopkinsville and a personal acquaintance of Hynek's, and Isabel Davis, an investigator from New York City.

UFO with occupants encountered by former mayor in Hasselbach, Germany

Location: Hasselbach, Germany
Oscar Linke, former Wehrmacht major, and his daughter Gabrielle, 11, had to leave their motorcycle when they had a flat tire. Inside the woods the girl noticed two men in silvery s

Berlin, July Furnished with the sworn testimony of an eyewitness, Oscar Linke, a 48yearold German and former mayor of Gleimershausen, West Berlin intelligence officers have
begun investigating a most unusual "flying saucer" story. According to this story, an object "resembling a huge flying pan" and having a diameter of about 15 meters landed in a
clearing in the Soviet Zone of Germany.
Linke recently escaped from the Soviet Zone along with his wife and six children.
Linke and his 11yearold daughter, Gabriella, made the following sworn statement last week before a judge: "While I was returning to my home with Gabriella, a tire of my motorc
blew out near the town of Hasselbach. While we were walking along toward Hasselbach, Gabriella pointed out something which lay at a distance of about 140 meters away from us
it was twilight, I thought that she was pointing at a young deer.
"I left my motorcycle near a tree and walked toward the spot which Gabriella had pointed out. When, however, I reached a spot about 55 meters from the object, I realized that my f
impression had been wrong. What I had seen were two men who were now about 40 meters away from me. They seemed to be dressed in some shiny metallic clothing. They were s
over and were looking at something lying on the ground.
"I approached until 1 was only about 10 meters from them. I looked over a small fence and then I noticed a large object whose diameter I estimated to be between 13 and 15 meters.
looked like a huge frying pan.
"There were two rows of holes on its periphery, about 30 centimeters in circumference. The space between the two rows was about 0.45 meters. On the top of this metal object was
conical tower about three meters high.
"At that moment, my daughter, who had remained a short distance behind me, called me. The two men must have heard my daughter's voice because they immediately jumped on th
conical tower and disappeared inside.
"I had previously noted that one of the men had a lamp on the front part of his body which lit up at regular intervals.
"Now, the side of the object on which the holes had been opened began to glitter. Its color seemed green but later turned to red. At the same time I began to hear a slight hum. While
brightness and hum increased, the conical tower began to slide down into the center of the object. The whole object then began to rise slowly from the ground and rotate like a top.
"It seemed to me as if it were supported by the cylindrical plant which had gone down from the top of the object, through the center, and had now appeared from its bottom on the g
"The object, surrounded by a ring of flames, was now a certain number of feet above the ground.
"I then noted that the whole object had risen slowly from the ground. The cylinder on which it was supported had now disappeared within its center and had reappeared on the top o
object.
"The rate of climb had now become greater. At the same time my daughter and I heard a whistling sound similar to that heard when a bomb falls.
"The object rose to a horizontal position, turned toward a neighboring town, and then, gaining altitude, it disappeared over the heights and forests in the direction of Stockheim."
Many other persons who live in the same area as Linke later related that they saw an object which they thought to be a comet. A shepherd stated that he thought that he was looking

After submitting his testimony to the judge, Linke made the following statement: "I would have thought that both my daughter and I were dreaming if it were not for the following
element involved: When the object had disappeared, I went to the place where it had been. I found a circular opening in the ground and it was quite evident that it was freshly dug. I
exactly the same shape as the conical tower. I was then convinced that I was not dreaming."
Linke continued, "I had never heard of the term 'flying saucer' before I escaped from the Soviet Zone into West Berlin. When I saw this object, I immediately thought that it was a n
Soviet military machine.
"I confess that I was seized with fright because the Soviets do not want anyone to know about their work. Many persons have been restricted to their movements for many years in E
Germany because they know too much."

Landing in Wisconsin
Location: Mellen, Wisconsin, United States
On the night of March 13, 1975, many sightings of bright aerial objects were made in the vicinity of Ashland, Wisconsin, which is located on Lake Superior. However, the most
of the reports comes from the Philip N. Baker family of Mellen, Wisconsin, some 20 miles south of Ashland.
APRO Bulletin, Vol. 23 No. 6 (Apr. 1975)
On the night of March 13, 1975, many sightings of bright aerial objects were made in the vicinity of Ashland, Wisconsin, which is located on Lake Superior. Our investigation indic
that several policemen observed airborne objects which they could not identify, but not much more than the "flying light" variety.
However, the most interesting of the reports comes from the Philip N. Baker family of Mellen, Wisconsin, some 20 miles south of Ashland. Fifteenyearold Jane Baker had gone ou
to take the cats to the garage where they are housed for the night, and was just at the garage door when she heard "strange hightoned noises." She turned around and looked up at th
to the north and saw an object apparently sitting on the road into Mellen. The whole hill was lit up, she said. She described it as a silvery discshaped object with a domed top which
off a yellowishwhite glow. Around its midsection were located red and green lights which were flashing on and off (see accompanying drawing).
Jane put the cats in the garage and went back into the house to get her father, who was sitting on the couch with his shoes off, watching television. The family is certain of the time
because the "HarryO" show had just started. Jane told her father that "there was a thing on the hill up the road." Mr. Phillips put on his shoes and they both went outside to look at
this point the glow was subsiding and the flashing lights had also turned out, and the noise was gone also. However, there was a square lighted area in the middle of it (see inset draw
Lance Johnson's composite). This area, which appeared to be an opening, had the same yellowwhite glow that the top of the object had had earlier when Jane viewed it alone.
The two then walked to position three and at this time noticed a metalonmetal banging sound. They then went back into the house where Mr. Phillips put in a telephone call to the
Undersheriff. While he was talking on the phone they heard a loud boom and when Jane looked out the window the object was gone.
During this period of time, the object was pointed out to Mrs. Phillips, who viewed it from a window in the house, and three other members of the family, 11yearold Jeff, 12yearo
John and 16yearold Montgomery also got a look at the object.
The next morning, Jane went outside to see if she could find any traces from the previous night. She looked over toward the swamp near her home and saw the same or a similar obj
again — only this time there were no flashing lights or glow — but the shape and color were the same. It was hovering over some evergreen trees. Jane went back into the house to
heavier clothing, then went back out, taking the family dog with her. She was proceeding toward the evergreens when the dog gave a big yelp and started to whine and paw at her ea
Then the dog became completely still. Jane says she didn't hear anything, but carried the dog into the house. When she came back out again, the object was gone.
Later in the morning she and Monty and John walked to the spot where the object had been seen the night before. They noted that there was a round area on the road where the snow
"fluffed up." There were tire tracks over the area where a car had passed after the object had left, but there were also bicycle tracks leading up to it, then taking up again on the other
These were tracks made by one of the boys riding his bicycle the morning before. The "fluffed up" area apparently obliterated parts of the bicycle tracks.
The condition of the snow is a new phenomenon where UFO landings are concerned. We can hypothesize that it was a result of the propulsion system of the UFO but it could also h
been a deliberate attempt to cover any tracks made by whoever or whatever was making the banging noise.
All of the Phillips family agree that the object was on the ground for a total of no less than 10 minutes. The investigation of that particular night is ongoing because there seems to b
witnesses in the area who have yet to be interviewed and there may be corroborating witnesses in other homes in the area.

Diskshaped UFO seen by group of teenagers in Messel, Germany
Location: Messel, Germany
Several 1517 year olds were at a discotheque in the town of Messel, when they saw outside a steel blue luminous disk with a dome on top which appeared over the woods about 60
meters from where they where standing. It slowly approached the witnesses at very low altitude, a distance of about 100 meters. Its diameter was about 10 meters wide. After a few
seconds the disc started to move in spiral curves down to the ground; it stopped for a moment before it flew away at a steep upward angle.

DiskShaped Object With Dome on Top Over Messel Near Frankfurt
On March 13, 1982, several 1517 year olds were on their way to a discotheque in the town of Messel, 20 km south of the city of Frankfurt. At approximately 9:10 p.m. they observ
three groups of lights consisting of four round lights flashing in different colors. Each group formed a square of 1.5° diameter at an altitude of about 30°. The first formation moved
and then stopped to hover in the air. The second formation displayed a slow movement as well; but the third group flew very fast over these formations and disappeared. After a few
seconds the other formations moved away too. At that time the teenagers went into the discotheque.
At about 9:30 p.m. they were called out by friends to see something strange in the sky. A few minutes later all of them observed a bright blue flash coming from the sky like a spotli
Soon after that, a steel blue luminous disk with a dome on top appeared over the woods about 600 meters from where they where standing. It slowly approached the witnesses at ver
altitude, a distance of about 100 meters. Its diameter was about 10 meters wide. The dome was divided into several multicolored segments. Inside the dome, something rotated like
"beacon". On the edge of the dome the colors yellow, green and red appeared, one after the other. Near the edge of the disc were four square white lights arranged at equal distance f
each other. On the bottom of the disc a bluishwhite light radiated in nonregular intervals, creating a conelike shape. After a few seconds the disc started to move in spiral curves d
the ground; it stopped for a moment before it flew away at a steep upward angle. The excited teenagers immediately called the police. When the police officers arrived the disk coul
longer be seen, but several unusual lights over the woods were observed by the police officers, too. (MUFONCES Report No.9, 1983)
Because of the many reliable witnesses the reliability index for the case is p = 99.99 %.

Investigated by Martin Jasek
The Sighting / Events:
Sue and Sarah were travelling on the Hunker Road driving up a steep hill towards King Solomon Dome, a beautiful spot where one can see for miles from the divide between the
Klondike and Indian Rivers (Point "A", Figures 6 and 7). It is above the treeline so the views are unobstructed. As they were nearing the summit, suddenly over the ridge to their lef
ahead of them in the sky they spotted a strange sight indeed! They could not believe their eyes! Suspended in the sky was a giant cigarshaped, "something". It had a row of rectangu
windows and was sitting there motionless and at a slight angle (Figures 8 and 9). Sue looked at her watch, and recalls that the time read 1:50 am, however she also noted that her wa
had stopped.
Their urgency to get home had been considerably reinforced and they were only about 30 minutes away. They went over the flat summit and followed the ridgeline to the west.
When they arrived at point "B" they don't recall seeing where the UFO was. Perhaps it was obscured by the ridgeline to the south, perhaps it was behind them, or perhaps they simp
"don't remember".
They do recall traveling down the Quartz Road to the south to start their descent into the Indian River Valley (Point C, Figures 6 and 7). They could see much more detail in the craf
and it was almost directly ahead of them. They noted a swarm of small "ships" buzzing around what they gathered to be the front of the object that were not there previously. The fro
they assumed was the end slightly tilted towards the sky. These small ships appeared as bright hazy lights, 12 to 13 in number as they did attempt to count them, and they were goin
and out of the big cigarshaped thing! (Figure 10). Their thought was "we have to get home!". Perhaps they could get Sue's son to verify the unbelievable sight they were witnessing
They drove down the steep descent along Quartz Road into the valley and lost sight of the objects behind a hill on their left (east) side of Quartz Creek. When they got to point "D",
Quartz Creek Valley opened up and they saw the object again. The "little ships" were gone, apparently they had "tucked themselves away" but they couldn't believe how close this th

They reached point "E" and they were astounded to see this thing start to go behind Haystack Mountain, which was 12 km away from them on the other side of the Indian River! (Fi

When they reached point "F", less than a minute from their home at point "G" they were frustrated to see the last remaining portion of the "mothership" descend behind Haystack
Mountain (Figure 14). "How could this thing fit behind Haystack unless it went into the dirt" was their thought. They came roaring into their driveway honking their horn. Their son
running out, the sisters jumped out of the car and tried to look for words to describe the awesome event. They were beside themselves. Their son managed to get in a few words in e
wise. "Where have you been, it is 3:30 in the morning!" he said. Apparently the sisters were missing 2 hours from their journey.
As they slowly unloaded their vehicle, they continued to watch Haystack Mountain for a good 20 minutes to half an hour but saw nothing more unusual.
The next day they visited the placer operation that they passed by during their UFO sighting and spoke with the cook. She had not heard anybody in the camp speak about seeing an
unusual at breakfast. Surely, the sisters thought that it would have been the subject of a lively discussion around the breakfast table. The cook was skeptical of the sisters so immedia
separated them and had them each draw what they had seen. She was flabbergasted to see that their drawings matched. Although these original drawing are no longer available, this
was subsequently interviewed and confirmed the fact that the drawings were similar. The drawings were much the same as the ones depicted in Figure 12 that were drawn on March
2000.

APRO / Ronald Story, 1980 / NICAP website (nicap.org)
On February 4, 1968, from approximately 7:20 to 7:25 P.M., about two hundred residents of Redlands, California, either saw or heard what was apparently the same huge, lowflyin
diskshaped object as it passed overhead. A minister conducting services in a church in Redlands was recording his sermon at the time and obtained a recording of the sound,
people present described as a highpitched, modulated whining sound much like that of the “FLYING SAUCER” seen on TV program, “The Invaders.” An investigation was condu
for the AERIAL PHENOMENA RESEARCH ORGANIZATION by four University of Redlands professors: Dr. Philip Seff (geology), Dr. Judson Sanderson (mathematics), Dr. Re
Krantz (chemistry), and John Brownfield (art). The following information was obtained by them:
The object apparently came down just west of Columbia Street and north of Colton Avenue, then proceeded slowly in a northwestern direction for about a mile or less, at an altitude
about 300 feet. Coming to a stop, it hovered briefly, jerked forward, hovered again, then shot straight up with a burst of speed. (Total time of the sighting must have been less than fi
minutes).
The object’s size and altitude were estimated by Dr. Sanderson. The object seemed (if at 300 feet altitude) to be around 50 feet in diameter.
The artist’s conception (see accompanying illustration) was based on a series of interviews with witnesses by Professor Brownfield. His composite painting was verified by witnesse
lights on the base appeared to expel jets of bright orange flame and were seven in number. The light on the top (eight to ten in a row) were alternating in color (red and green), givin
impression that the object was rotating.
The object was not detected in RADAR, by the nearby Norton air Force Base, but a USAF spokesman admitted that their radar was not the type that would have spotted it anyway.
closest radar that might have detected the object was a March Air Force Base near Riverside, but a range of mountains stands between Redlands and the location of the base.
Professor Philip Seff, who headed the investigative team, reached the following conclusions:
The object sighted can be attributed to no known type of aircraft. Since the atmosphere was clear and the object was low, witnesses obtained a clear view; also, no known aircraft wa
Redlands at that time.
As far as is known, the object cannot be attributed to any known natural phenomenon.
The sound heard was that of the emergency rescue vehicle. In the excitement of seeing a UFO, witnesses naturally assumed that it was coming from the object overhead.
The composite painting was obtained from witnesses seeing the object at different angles. Therefore composite is probably a very accurate representation of the object.

and saw a very large object hovering over a nearby house about an 1/8 of a mile from our house. It was larger than the house, seemed to be at an angle to her view with the bottom e
and had lights all around it evenly spaced. When it began to move away, several lightning flashes were seen and then it was gone. The power returned two hours later".
A second email was received the next day stating that he had a chance to talk to his wife about this sighting and he added that it would seem that his wife might have actually observ
"balls of lightning". He also wrote: "what she describes sounds just like a multiple ball lightning display which she says disappeared as she watched it, and then a bolt of lightning w
into the space above the house from the ground to where the lights had appeared to be".
A little more details were obtained during a telephone interview that was conducted March 31st. Sighting took place around 12:30 AM, March 23, during a thunderstorm, as she wa
facing south, towards Manassas. The length of the appearance lasted just a few seconds, from the "balls of light" formation to the vertical lightning flash.
It is my belief that this incident may have been a natural, Rare Atmospheric Phenomena (RAP) involving multiple ball lightning, or Mobile Luminous Spheres. To be a witness of o
two of these lightning balls are rare but witnessing a group of ten or more is phenomenal! According to Dominion Virginia Power website, their electrical outage legend summary d
3/23/2005, indicated that there were about 24 homes that were affected by this storm in the Northern Virginia's Fairfax County area.

Lighted 'panel of lights' gliding silently across sky
Location: Atlanta, Georgia, United States
"Witness reports that on September 17, 2003, he and his wife were out jogging near their home, approximately 1214 miles north of downtown Atlanta, GA, when their attention wa
suddenly drawn by a bizarrely lighted "panel of lights" in the evening sky. They witnessed the object for only an estimated 36 seconds as it silently glided across the night sky. The

Duration: 36 seconds
My wife and I were jogging last night around 8pm. As it’s been getting dark earlier, we decided to jog through our own neighborhood. At about 8:30pm we were heading west down
College Way. I glanced up and saw a panel of lights almost directly overhead. It was moving slowly and silently from west to east. It seemed to be approximately 10002000 feet off
ground. There was no erratic movement at all. After a few seconds the lights dimmed out, almost as if they had sensed me watching. The sky was very clear and once the lights wen
could not make out any dark silhouette. My wife had not looked up in time to witness anything, but suggested maybe I saw a shooting star. As we looked at the sky, a small private j
went overhead, heading almost due north. It was quite audible and its black silhouette was easily identifiable. It did not appear to be chasing or even aware of the lights. My wife rep
that it must have been a shooting star. However, the lights were very clearly defined. They were three horizontal rows of six lights each. The lights were perfectly round and almost
light a panel of stadium lights floating in the sky. They were very 3D looking. They appeared to be angled over the ground at about a 30 to 45 degree angle. There was a definite da
shadow behind the lights like a short, stubby cigar, though the lights themselves seemed to be flat on the same plane. My most immediate thought was that I was looking at the Good
Blimp, but the moment the lights dimmed out, the black shape vanished as well. From my experience at football games, I have been able to hear the blimp even over the crowd nois

Lowflying, slowmoving triangle object passes over house
Date: , 2000
Location: Newtown Square, California, United State
"We stood in our driveway as they passed directly over us, moving very slowly. The objects were the shape of an equilateral triangle with large round lights on each of the three tips
closeness of the objects and the light polution of the suburb allowed us to see the shape of the object beyond the illuminated tips."

Summary
Very low flying, slowly traveling, triangle UFOs passed directly over our driveway and house as we were getting in our car to go out.
Sighting Time: 9:30
Duration: 1 minute
No. of Witnesses: 3
Urban or Rural: Rural suburban
No. of Object(s): Multiple
Size of Object(s): 60 feet
Distance to Object(s): 200 feet above us
Shape of Object(s): triangle
Color of Object(s): very dark grey or black
On the night of the sighting, my girlfriend, sister, and myself spontaneously decided to run to the store for some icecream. We went outside and got in our car to leave. I had already
started my car when my girlfriend noticed the objects and alerted us to them. My sister and I looked out our window and saw 3 triangle shaped flying objects passing not too far abo
tree level (perhaps double the tree level).
It was extraordinary enough that we were stuck there watching it. We didn't hear any engine noise so I turned off my car engine to listen more closely. However, it was silent. I rolle
down my window to stick my head out and look up, as they were directly over us. After a few seconds, I got out of the car to join my girlfriend and sister who had already gotten ou
see them closer. We stood in our driveway as they passed directly over us, moving very slowly. The objects were the shape of an equilateral triangle with large round lights on each
three tips. The closeness of the objects and the light polution of the suburb allowed us to see the shape of the object beyond the illuminated tips. We could also see the center of the
of the objects and certain smaller and very dimly lit lights in the middle of them (another color, though memory fails us).
The three objects were traveling in a southeasterly direction.
They were moving very slowly. Our view would have been obstructed by forest and trees had they not flown directly over our driveway. So the only time we could see them was du
that brief passing. However, even this short patch of sky took them a little over a minute to cover the distance.
After it passed, we all talked about it and were excited that we saw a UFO. However, we considered them a UFO in the true sense. An "Unidentified Flying Object" not necessarily
extraterrestrial object. Our talk about it has subsequently referred to them as some sort of experiental government plane.

The Phoenix Lights
Location: Phoenix, Arizona, United States
The Phoenix Lights UFO incident is a complex series of events that took place on March 13, 1997 over the states of Nevada, Arizona, and possibly New Mexico, and which would
quickly become known as the "Phoenix Lights" sightings. It involved sightings by tens, or perhaps even hundreds, of thousands of witnesses on the ground, and it gave rise to a stor
controversy over what had caused the event.

Carstop UFO encounter near Velje, Jutland (Denmark)
Location: Vejle, Jutland, Denmark
A 24yearold man was driving to visit his parents in Vejle in Jutland, Denmark, when he experienced a dramatic stopping of his car when a discshaped UFO with a powerful light
hovered over his vehicle. The object was only 34 meters above the car, and he could see a number of circular lamps on the underside. After a short time the intensity of the light fro
UFO diminished, and it slowly moved away and out of sight; he was able to start the car again normally.

CarStop Encounter in Denmark
by Kim Moller Hansen
This account of the event of 29 September 1995 [in which there was a dramatic stopping of a car where a very large disc with a powerful light hovered over the vehicle,] is based on
witness's written report and the investigation by Torben Birkeholm, SUFOI's Field Investigator in Jutland.
'THE ENGINE WENT COMPLETELY DEAD...'
It was Friday evening. A 24yearold man was driving southward from Brande towards Vejle in Jutland, on his way to visit his parents. …His only companion was the black Labrad
lying on the back seat. There was hardly any traffic.
It was dark with dry, clear weather: the external temperature was over 10°C. ...The car's clock was showing 21.30, when suddenly he saw the speedometer shoot straight round to
maximum and the other instruments started to go wild. The rev counter also went to maximum and the thermometer shot up into the red, where the needle stood vibrating. At the sam
time the windscreen wipers started going at great speed though they were not even switched on! In bewilderment he tried flicking the wiper switch, but this had no effect.
The dog started to become agitated on the back seat, and the witness had to tell it to lie down. […Soon] the engine went completely dead and the car came to a stop in complete da
out in the middle of the country road.
A POWERFUL LIGHT EXPLODES OVER THE VEHICLE
While the witness nervously peered through the windscreen and glanced repeatedly in the rearview mirror, for fear of any cars that might be approaching, he tried immediately to re
the car. He turned the ignition key, but nothing happened. The ignition light did not come on, there was no power. Everything was dead.
…After three or four fruitless attempts [to restart his car] he suddenly became aware of a strange, oppressive sensation 'from above', like some sort of physical influence that he foun
to describe...
Without warning and without a sound an enormously powerful light practically 'exploded' over the vehicle. The light came from above, and it was blinking or pulsing quickly at r
intervals. The witness saw the light through the windscreen, looked up and saw a huge disc above him. He was scared, but immediately opened the door, put his left foot on the road
leaned halfway out, his left hand on top of the door and his right hand on the steering wheel. His dog was whining and trying to hide, trying vainly to 'bury' itself under the front sea
THE LIGHT SOURCE

The light was dazzling and he had to squint to see anything. He saw a large disc, 1215 metres in diameter, just three or four metres above the car. The disc's outer edge was dark ag
the background of the starry sky. A little further in he could see a number of concentric circles of light, which were closer together the nearer they were to the centre of the disc.
Each lightcircle consisted of 'lamps' that were equally spaced all the way around. Each 'lamp' consisted of two circles, like a bulb in the middle of a reflector. The light itself seemed
neon and each 'lamp' shone as brightly as a halogen lamp.

Near the centre of the disc the light was so strong that the witness could make out no details, or see whether there was a single light source or a cluster of small ones. He observed th
light's boundary was very sharply defined, going straight down rather than spreading out to the sides as would be normal.

Consequently, the circumference of the light field on the ground corresponded to that of the disc above.

...The colour of the light was white and indigo, somewhat reminiscent of the light from a welding torch, but not nearly as strong. It 'quivered' in a strange fashion.

THE LIGHT GETS DIMMER AND THE DISC MOVES

...After a short time he saw that the intensity of the light was slowly diminishing, as if someone were operating a dimmer ...Through the windscreen he saw that the disc was slowly
moving forwards ahead of him. It carried on towards the trees nearby, still very low down, and as it reached the first trees it literally had to 'tip' its lefthand side up to avoid them. It
carried on with a faint light and disappeared out of sight in a matter of a few seconds, still without a sound.

As the disc glided towards the front of the car he could see that it was not flat. It looked peculiar, with something like 'triangles' or 'spikes' which he estimates were approximately o
third of the disc's diameter, or about three metres high. The outer edges were rounded off, like a parasol…

For a short while he simply sat in the car, trying to calm his still agitated dog while he collected himself after what had happened. After maybe three or four minutes he turned the ig
key to check if there was any power. The headlights came on and he noticed straight away that the digital clock stood at 21.31. He turned the key completely: the engine started
immediately. Lights and instruments were functioning normally.

He was still feeling afraid his legs were trembling but he drove oft. For a while he did not drive over 70 km/h, but he speeded up when he had calmed down a little.

After driving 35 km the witness reached his parents home and immediately told them what had happened. The experience was still affecting him and he was shaking. His parents as
him to contact someone there must be some 'UFO people' he could ring. But he was too frightened and upset and did not phone anyone…
THE WITNESS

The 24yearold man lives in Aalborg (northern Jutland), where he is a student nurse… He comes across as a surprised and honest person who gives no impression of being other th
very normal.

Four UFO sightings occur in Elk River area of Minnesota
Date: September, 1992
Location: Elk River, Minnesota, United States
Since a woman told police that she spotted a UFO in her Elk River neighborhood, three more sightings of UFOs in the Elk River area occurred in midSeptember, 1992. One man in
Albertville saw a saucershaped object, 56 feet across. Then, a person who works for him, Terry Townsend, saw a UFO the size of a passenger jet that was ringed with lights. And a
driver witnessed a UFO with 10 portholetype lights.

"More UFO sightings reported:
Four people say they saw flying objects in Elk River area"
by Joni Astrup, Staff writer
Star News
Several more reports of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) have surfaced since a woman told police that she spotted a UFO in her Elk River neighborhood earlier this month.
In all, four individuals have reported seeing UFOs in the Elk River area in midSeptember. Here's a rundown of what they saw and when:
•Sunday, Sept. 13: A man who lives near Albertville looked out his patio door about 10:30 p.m. and saw a reflection of light on his neighbor's window. When he walked out into his
to investigate, he spotted an object about 100 yards away and 50 yards above the ground.
He said it was 5 to 6 feet across, 1 to 2 feet thick and tapered on each end like a saucer.
The object had several diamondshaped windows or lights in a row around the middle. An unusual yellowblue light shone from the diamonds.
The top and bottom of the object were stationary, but the center was spinning counterclockwise, he said. While the diamonds were located in the spinning region, they remained in p
The man said he watched the object for about 20 seconds "and then suddenly the lights went out and it was gone."
He said the object was silent.
•Wednesday, Sept. 16: Terry Townsend of Princeton, who works with the man from Albertville [who also had a sighting a few days earlier], said he encountered a UFO after midnig
he was driving through northeastern Elk River on his way home from work as an industrial mechanic in the Twin Cities.
Townsend describes in detail what he saw in a letter to the editor on page 4. [not available]
He said the dark grey object was the size of a large passenger jet and was ringed with white, red and green lights. The round, white lights could have been portholes, he said.
Shining from the portholes "was a pure white light like you've never seen before." Each white light wasn't one beam like a spotlight, but was made up of about a dozen smaller beam
similar to light coming through a prism.
The light only extended about two feet beyond the edge of the object, he said. 400 feet off the road. Townsend said he was startled but not afraid when he came around a bend in the
and saw it.
"You read about it, you see pictures and think that's not possible, it can't be," he said. "It's unlike anything you've ever been through. You don't fully understand it until you experien
He said he doesn't feel the objects are anything to fear.
•Thursday, Sept. 17: As described in last week's Star News, an Elk River woman reported seeing strange lights about 4:45 a.m. after getting up to go to the bathroom. The three hug
were hovering about six feet off the ground in her neighbor's back yard. When she moved to another windowforabetter look, the lights had moved and she saw a large beam of
shining on the street.
"The beam of light was there and then it was gone," she said. "That's when I thought I must have witnessed a UFO."
She reported the incident to police.
•Friday, Sept. 18: A cab driver traveling through Elk River about 8 p.m. told police he saw an object in the air near the intersection of Baugh Street and County Road 12 east of Elk
The man, who declined to be named, said the passenger in his car also saw the object and kept an eye on it as they drove west into Elk River.
He described it as fairly large and traveling close to the ground —too close to be a passenger jet. The object was quite far off in the distance and moving slowly in a northwesterly
direction.
The man said they were unable to make out its shape, but a row of at least 10 portholetype lights were visible. It appeared light was streaming through the portholes, he said.
"It was amazing," he added. "I just can't imagine what it was." The sightings have attracted the attention of an organization called the Mutual UFO Network Inc.
Gary Thrash, a member of the group in the Twin Cities, said they like to go out and talk to the people who report UFOs and see where the objects were spotted, soil samples and hav
them analyzed.
The Mutual UFO Network Inc. is a nonprofit research organization with about 4,000 members worldwide.
Thrash said people have reported seeing UFOs of a variety of shapes ranging from diamond, saucer and wing shaped to square, V and cigar shaped.
People commonly hear a low humming noise from the object if it is very low or the person is directly under it. Otherwise, he said the objects are generally silent.

Close encounter with huge object, 2030 occupants seen inside
Location: Mobile, Alabama, United States
Huge object witnessed by Pat Norris of Mobile, Alabama. "As the craft appeared Mrs. Norris' attention was drawn to a top deck with a long window which she estimates 53 feet and
through which she viewed 20 to 30 persons, apparently oblivious of her presence, walking about as if they were changing shift."
APRO Bulletin, Vol. 32, No. 2 (May 1984)
"ENCOUNTER IN ALABAMA"
The following case is the result of a lead furnished to APRO by Bob Gribble of Phenomena Research Hot Line, and followup and investigation was completed by Field Investigato
O. Brown. The name of the witness and some identifying names of the exact location have been changed to protect the principal, as requested.
Mrs. Pat Norris, 28, lives with her husband, Carl, and three children in a suburb of Mobile, Alabama. On the evening of February 3, 1983, she had visited a friend in Mobile and wh
friend's husband arrived from work, Mrs. Norris left and headed home on Highway 90. She had turned off the Highway and when about 90 minutes' ride from her home she heard an
explosion. At this point, her car began to vibrate and continued to do so, making it difficult for her to steer. She negotiated another turn off the road she was on, brought the car to a
opened the car door and leaned out and down and looked to ascertain if the transmission could have been causing the trouble. It had not.
OBJECT SEEN
Mrs. N. continued driving and the vibrating stopped. She executed another turn onto another road and saw that the woods ahead were brilliantly illuminated. At first she thought tha
was a helicopter search in progress because of the lights and was very frightened. She again stopped the car, and at this point sighted a huge object about l/2 mile west of her.
feels the explosion she had heard earlier was the object coming down over a clay and gravel pit in the vicinity.
The thing was huge — later estimated to be 7 to 8 stories (70 to 80 feet) high and "six telephone poles" (210 feet) wide, and appeared to be moving toward her at 45 miles per hour.
evening had been clear and cool and she had driven with the car windows closed. After the explosion, she noted a "chopping wind, a highpitched sound and a roaring sound" as we
the vibration. She particularly noted the "whipping of the wind — like a tornado."
FEAR GONE
When the object reached a point fairly close it stopped and all of the noise stopped. It was completely silent and Mrs. Norris lost all of the fear she had felt before. She then got out o
car to get a better look. She strained to take in every detail — feeling like a child with "unbelievable happiness."
Mr. Norris said that although Pat told him of her sighting after it happened, he didn 't realize how important it was to her until she started checking books out of the local library pert
to UFOs and "related subjects."
She estimates the time duration of the sighting as five minutes. As the craft appeared Mrs. Norris' attention was drawn to a top deck with a long window which she estimates 53 feet
through which she viewed 20 to 30 persons, apparently oblivious of her presence, walking about as if they were changing shift. The wall behind them was curved and white. There w
no instruments. The people did not give the appearance of looking out. The beings were pale skinned, dressed in white one piece suits. She judged them to be about our height, five
10", quite slender but with chests larger than ours, the top of the head more prominent, no hair, and having the lower half only of ears similar to our own. She noted nothing out of th
ordinary about the eyes. What did draw her attention was the great grace of their movements. The atmosphere seemed "sterile."
DETAILS OBSERVED
Below this top deck window was an opaque window. The area around it was all white. This window was in sections and was inset. The glass was tinted.
Below the center of the craft a door was closing from right to left. (See drawing). And she looked onto a street that was dark as if made of asphalt or possible concrete. Off to the sid
this street was tubular rectangular equipment. All across the craft she saw rivets and portholes. She said she could see the portholes "inside out" as she peered into the craft. She saw
construction that included "huge I beams like they put ships together with and beams holding the glass in there." The bottom side was tiered upwards. The construction reminds her
ship or submarine. She said it seemed possible, very likely, it could have been constructed here on Earth.
The very bottom of the craft was formed into a cross made with one foot square mirrors and an observation deck hung down and around the bottom with beings in it. In this case, un
the top deck, the people were peering out, while overhead she heard a very low pitched but clearly audible (almost like a growl) "announcing" coming from the area of the observati
deck now closest to her.
Mrs. Norris said she believes they didn't realize she was there until directly over her position.
As drawn, she saw four pipes projecting six to eight feet out from the craft set in three or four foot square boxes. They had a hollow flange on the end like a tank cannon and she bel
"it looked like a weapon."
The craft took a southerly turn as it went on from where she was parked. She said it was staying in the wooded area and did not cross Highway 90 again. Possible it was doubling ba
towards Irvington and Pascagoula. It lit up the wooded area, and all beneath it as it moved on off. It had white spotlights and to the side blue and red lights that intermingled, pointin
to the clouds and then down to Earth.
She told Mr. Brown she had prayed she might have such a sighting. She had extensive dream material both prior to and after the February 4 incident. The late dreams contain a deta
physical examination and scan of her emotions, which we expect to present later, when prepared.
After the object was out of sight, Pat continued on home, arriving at 1:10 a.m.

The time was 4.45 pm on Wednesday 7 January 1970, the place was lmjarvi, 15 km NW of Heinola in southern Finland. Woodman Aarno Heinonen, 36, and farmer Esko Viljo, 38,
active competition skiers, were out skiing. They came down from a little hill to a glade where they usually take a pause. It was sunset, and a few stars were visible in the unclouded

They had been standing in the glade for about 5 minutes when they heard a buzzing sound, and caught sight of a very strong light moving through the sky. It approached from the no
made a wide sweep, and came at them from the south, descending as it came. The faint buzzing sound became louder. The light halted, and then they could see that a luminous redg
mist was swirling round it. Puffs of smoke were thrown up from the top of the cloud.
The two men stood quite still staring into the air, saying nothing. The cloud was soon down as low as 15 m, and they could see what was inside it: a round object, flat at the bottom,
metallic in appearance and about 3 m in diameter.
Heinonen's account, as reported by GICOFF (the Goteberg UFO information centre) runs: 'The round craft hovered awhile completely motionless above us while the buzzing sound
still be heard, quite low. Then the huge disc began to descend along with the redgrey fog which became more thin and transparent It stopped at a height of 34 m, so near I could ha
touched it if 1 had reached with my skistick.
'The craft was completely round. When it came down obliquely towards us we saw it had a dome on the upper side. Along the lower edge was a kind of raised part on which were th
spheres or domes spaced equidistantly, From the centre of the bottom projected a tube, approximately 25 cm in diameter, from which suddenly there came an intense beam of light.
'I don't think we said anything to each other at all. We were completely amazed. We saw the light move a couple of ti

coalblack and 1 cm wide.
'I was standing completely still. Suddenly I felt as if somebody had seized my waist from behind and pulled me backw
I think I took a step backwards, and in the same second I caught sight of the creature. It was standing in the middle of
light beam with a black box in its hands. Out of a round opening in the box there came a yellow light, pulsating. The
creature was about 90 cm tall, with very thin arms and legs. Its face was pale like wax. I didn't notice the eyes, but the
was very strange, it was a hook rather than a nose. The ears were very small and narrowed towards the head. The crea
wore some kind of overall in a light green material. On its feet were boots of a darker green colour, which stretched a
the knees. There were also white gauntlets going up to the elbows, and the fingers were bent like claws around the bla
box.'
Viljo: 'The creature stood in the middle of the bright light and was luminous like phosphorus, but its face was very pa
shoulders were very thin and slanting, with thin arms like a child's. I did not think of the clothes, only noticing that th
were greenish in colour. On its head was a conical helmet shining like metal. The creature was less than 1 m tall.'
Suddenly it turned and directed the opening of the box towards Heinonen: The pulsating light was very bright, almost
blinding. It was very silent in the forest. Suddenly a redgrey mist came flowing down from the object and large
started to fly from the illuminated circle of snow. The sparks were like tapers, about 10 cm long, red, green and violet
floated out in long curves, rather slowly; many of them hit me, but though I expected them to burn me, I did not feel
anything.'
Viljo: 'The sparks were shining in several colours. It was very beautiful. At the same time the red mist became thicker

away from me."
Heinonen: 'I could only just see Esko. The mist was very thick and I could no longer see the creature.'
Viljo: 'I saw the being for perhaps 1520 seconds, no longer. Suddenly the beam melted, flew up like a flickering flam

light. The whole leg was stiff and aching. My foot was as if anaesthetised.'
Viljo: It was growing dark. I asked Aarno if we should be on our way. I thought he was joking when he sat down in the snow. But then I saw he couldn't get up though he tried over
over again.'
SYMPTOMS
Viljo had to halfcarry, halfdrag his friend to his home, some 3 km distant. 'When they got home,' said Heinonen's mother, 'it was dark outside. They knocked on the door, which th
don't usually do, When I opened the door Aarno was outside leaning against Esko. I helped them in. Neither seemed frightened, but I could see Esko's face was red and swollen. We
Aarno over to a sofa."
Heinonen: 'I felt ill. My back was aching and all my joints were painful. My head ached and after a while I had to vomit. When I went to pee the urine was nearly black, it was like
pouring black coffee onto the snow. This continued for a couple of months.'
Viljo: 'I hurried to the nearest neighbour, who lived some 600 m away; he has a telephone. The first two doctors I called couldn't come, but Dr Kajanoja said he would meet us at He
clinic in an hour's time. The neighbour drove us there.'
To the doctor, Heinonen complained about his aching joints and his headache. The doctor prescribed sleeping pills, and next day sedatives, telling him the symptoms would be gone
days. But they continued, and Heinonen was unable to work, in May he reported he was still ill, with pains in head and neck; the least effort tired him. The numbness in his right leg
gone, but he still had trouble with his balance. His memory was so bad that if be left home he had to say where he was going so that he could be picked up if he didn't return. A visit
site of the incident made him feel worse. Several people who had visited the site, said Viljo, had felt sick for some days afterwards; he wondered if the place was infected in some w
too suffered aftereffects, including headaches and eye troubles. Dr Pauli Kajanoja reports: 'l think the men have suffered a great shock. Viljo was very red in the face and seemed a
swollen. Both seemed absentminded. They talked quickly and incoherently. I could not find anything clinically wrong with Heinonen. He did not feel well, but that could have been
stomach reacting to the shock. The symptoms he described are like those after being exposed to radioactivity. Unfortunately I had no instrument to measure that. As to the black urin
seems inexplicable. Possibly it could have been blood in it, but this cannot go on for several months. If blood samples had been taken they might have revealed changes in his blood
'Both men seemed sincere, and I don't think they had made the thing up. I'm sure they were in a state of shock when they came to me; something must have frightened them.'
A strange thing happened in June 1970 when the two witnesses revisited the site together with a Swedish journalist, a photographer and an interpreter; the hands of the three strange
suddenly became red, and Heinonen had to leave the site with a powerful headache.
CONFIRMATIONS
On the same day and at the same time as the skiers had their experience, two other people saw a bright light in the sky. A farmer's wife, Elna Siitari, in Paistjarvi, about 15 km from
Imjarvi, was on her way to the cowhouse when she saw a strange light in the direction of Imjarvi. In Paaso, 10 km north of Imjarvi, the son of a household had gone out for firewoo
when he observed a light phenomenon; it was then 4.45 pm.
STATEMENTS FROM EXPERTS
Matti Tuuri, professor in electrophysics at Helsinki University, was very interested in the incident: 'We can't exclude the possibility that the injuries could have been caused by elec
radiation. But both state that the light was blinding and white, so it can't have been ultraviolet radiation, which is always bluish, Besides, it does not penetrate clothing, if the radiatio
penetrated Heinonen's clothing, it must have been a shortwave radiation such as Xrays; an overdose of these would cause symptoms such as those he reported...
'There is much in electrophysics which has yet to be explored. One has only to mention ball lightning; we know it exists, but the physical laws defining its existence have yet to be
established. According to the known laws of physics, ball lightning should blow up immediately but it doesn't! The incident at Heinola seems likely to be an abnormal electrical
phenomenon.'
The Institute for High Voltage Research at (Jppsala (University told GICOFF they did not think the phenomenon was related to any kind of atmospheric electricity.
Soil, vegetation and snow samples from the site were sent to Chalmers Institute of Technology for radiation tests, but revealed no more than normal background radiation.
SINCE 1970
To complicate a situation which already defies explanation, we have to consider Heinonen's claim that between the time of the incident and August 1972 he had no less than 23 furth
UFO sightings. As if that were not enough, he has become a contactee; on two occasions he met an 'extremely beautiful' spacewoman, after a loud female voice had directed him to
secluded rendezvous.
At the first encounter he also saw a man, standing about 60 m behind the woman. She was wearing a yellow trouser suit which rustled when she moved; she was 1.5 m tall, with sho
length hair and blue eyes a description recalling Adamski's Venusian, She didn't walk like a human but 'floated' or 'hovered'. Though she looked about 20 she told him she was 180
Menger's Venusian did. In her hand she held a silvery ball with three aerials pointing at Heinonen.
Fortunately she spoke Finnish, and began her conversation with "Hyvaa paivaa" ( = How do you do?); she told him she came from a green and pleasant land. Three different species
humanoids had visited Imjarvi, she said, some smaller than her, some of her height (140 cm) and some about 2 m high. She said that the January incident had lasted 3 minutes, not j
few seconds as the two witnesses thought.
At their second meeting Heinonen again asked where she came from. She told him to hurry home and he would see the beautiful craft she had come in. And indeed when he got hom
saw an object some 57 m in diameter in the sky.
On each occasion Heinonen spoke with the spacewoman for five minutes, but can recall surprisingly little of what was said. On another occasion both he and Viljo saw a being in V
home: a being a little more than 1.5 m, wearing a grey suit with white stripes, suddenly stepped out of the wall and remained standing in the middle of the floor; the two men gaped
for 30 seconds, after which it vanished.
Swedish ufologist Liljegren has drawn attention to the failure of Heinonen and Viljo to offer anything by way of concrete evidence. On one occasion Heinonen received a green pen
the space beings, but he lent it to a researcher and never saw it again: he was given a stone but made to throw it away; when he tried to photograph the spacewoman both she and his
camera disappeared! Viljo too tried to take a photograph of a mysterious light, but the camera was knocked out of his hand and the film was burned to ashes. All in all, Liljegren
concludes, their accounts are more likes sagas and myths than a logical contact attempt by an intergalactic civilisation.
Without question, these later accounts undermine the credibility of the witnesses and throw a dubious light on their original story. As in the Dewilde case in France, the Hill case in
United States, and many more, what seems at first to be an interesting and serious incident is made to seem doubtful by subsequent events.
Is it that the real UFO experience causes the witnesses to subsequently have imaginary experiences? Or was the first, like those that followed, the symptom of some psychic state,
triggered by some unknown cause to bring about a UFO 'sighting'? (In this connection it is perhaps significant that, according to Anders Liljegren, this was not Heinonen's first UFO
sighting; he had had one six years previously!)
Or is there yet a third explanation?
A CURIOUS POSTSCRIPT
In February 1969 a 16yearold boy, Matti Kontulainen, had a strange experience only 100 m or so from the slope where Heinonen and Viljo had their encounter:
'It was a cloudy winter evening about 11 pm. I was skiing home through the forest after visiting a friend. It was dark but suddenly the forest was lit up by an intense light which rush
above the treetops at so low an altitude that I threw myself down in the snow. It was like a huge welding flame, and it disappeared in no time. 1 have never seen such an intense
was like staring at the sun! It was coming from the south and heading north. I heard no sound, so I'm sure it wasn't an airplane.'
Matti Haapaniemi, 46, is a farmer in Imjarvi and a member of Heinola rural district council; his farm is only 1 km distant from Heinonen's home. He says: 'Many people in this
neighbourhood have laughed at this story. But I don't think it's anything to joke about I've known both Aarno and Esko since they were little boys. Both are quiet, rational fellows, a
moreover they are abstainers. I'm sure their story is true!'

UFO sighted in Easley (SC)
Location: Easley, South Carolina, United States

"That's the Goodyear blimp!" was my first thought. Then I realized it wasn't a blimp."

Easley Progress (South Carolina), Sept. 17, 1980
There was something ' strange, and beautiful, and incredibly big floating just above the tree tops in front of Larry Joe Garrett's house on Fruit Mountain Road last Thursday morning
It was unlike anything Garrett has ever seen before. It left him almost transfixed, in i a state of awe and exhilaration, The euphoria lasted 24 hours before Garrett said he felt normal
Garrett saw the strange fly, tag object at S a.m. About three hours earlier Jerry McAlister of Pamell Road in Anderson had seen something similar. McAlister also described a feelin
excitement and exhilaration after the sighting.
The object has not been identified.
But that does not make it any less real to Joe Garrett. He related his experience to The Progress.
"I had gone out in the yard to work on my wife's car," he said. "She works on the second shift and was still asleep. I heard a buzzing sound, sort of like a big swarm of bees. Or like
Honda, way off In the distance. I looked down the driveway to see if a car was turning around, but I didn't see anything. As I turned back, toward my wife's car I got a glimpse of
something over the top of the trees."
"That's the Goodyear blimp!" was my first thought. Then I realized it wasn't a blimp. It was something a lot bigger. I couldn't see it very good, so I walked around to the front of the
And there it was, out in the clear, right up over me. It was big. Real big. "How big?" he was asked. "Oh, it was as big as Belk's store. But a whole lot taller," he said.
He staunchly stands by his estimate of the size of the object. He says when he looked at it, the object reminded him of a large battleship he had seen once in the Norfolk, Va. harbor.
He described the windows as being very long, and totally black, except for one window that shone with a blinding, glaring light. Garrett said this could have been the sun reflecting
window, but he couldn't tell for sure. The glare was too bright.
He was specific about the color. He said it appeared to be a metallic, purplishgray. He was sure the bottom side of the object was metal, of an exceptional smoothness. He saw no se
although he said there was what appeared to be a metal pipe protruding from the underside.
Garrett could not see the entire shape of the object. He said It appeared to be tilted backward, so that what he saw, primarily, was the bottom of the "saucer." However, he saw enoug
the upper part to be sure that it was dome shaped.
"It was shaped sort of like the big water tank up town," he said, "Except a whole lot bigger."
The description given by McAlister in Anderson matched Garrett's in most respects except for the lights. Garrett, who saw the object in full daylight, said there were no lights on it.
McAlister saw the object before daylight, and said it carried blinding lights all around its perimeter.
Both men described the object to artist Mickey Tate of the Pickens County Sheriffs Department. Neither man conferred with the other, but the sketches Tate drew from their descrip
were very similar except for the protruding lights reported by McAlister.
The sheriff's deputy theorteed that the lights could have been retractable, to be pulled into the fuselage of the craft when not in use.
Although several people were reported to have seen the "flying saucer" in Anderson, no one else, apparently, saw the big object in Easley. Garrett said his next door neighbor was no
home at the time, and the neighbor across the street was probably busy with her children inside the house.
After he had watched the strange object for a minute Garrett said he ran into the house to call his wife. But when he got inside he stopped, thinking to himself that his wife would sa
was crazy if he told her what he had seen. He hesitated a moment in the kitchen, then ran back outside to reassure himself that the object was still up there above the trees. When he
outside it was gone.
Later in the morning Garrett's wife convinced him that he should report ^he sighting to someone. He called the Pickens County Sheriff's Department, and it was then that he heard fo
first time that a UFO had been sighted in Anderson, also.
Many theories nave been advanced as to the origin and the identity of the strange object. The Easlej Progresi called the GreenvllleSpartanburg Airport's cantrol tower to ask if an
unidentified craft had been picked up on radar.
The individual contacted at the tower said the object did not show up on radar. He expressed considerable skepticism that there actually had been an unidentified flying object in the
Some persons believe the flying object might have something to do with a Government project of some sort, possibly a weather balloon. Others wonder If it was something sent ove
Russia or some other unfriendly country. And then there are those who fear that it was an interplanetary space craft.
Russia or some other unfriendly country. And then there are those who fear that it was an interplanetary space craft.

Landed UFO and humanoid encountered by four hunters in Spain
Location: Gerena, Seville, Spain
The four witnesses were hunting in the early morning hours near the Guadiamar River, when they encountered a landed object with a humanoid being standing next to it. The UFO
like a large earthen jar, upside down, with a red light on top. The being seemed strong and tall (some 2 meters or taller), and had on a darkcolored helmet and silvery body suit. The
witnesses become frightened when the humanoid approached them, and they left the area running.

"HUMANOID NEAR GERENA, SPAIN"
By Ignacio Darnaude
One Friday in late November, 1978 (evidently November 24 — trans.), the four witnesses, plus another friend, were hunting just east of the Guadiamar River in the area between th
towns of Gerena, Aznalcollar, and Olivares, in the province of Seville, southwestern Spain.
They each had a sixbattery flashlight. The night was dark, without any wind, with good visibility and temperature, under a rather cloudy sky. One of the friends decided to return to
car, so he saw nothing of what subsequently happened.
The area of the observation is at approximately 6°20' west longitude and 37°30' north latitude. It is part of the estate "La Pizana," 3 kilometers (2 miles) southwest of Gerena. Its pri
characteristics are: low hills with some farming, clumps of eucalyptus trees, vegetation located especially near the Guadiamar River, the remains of a Roman aqueduct, and beef catt
The place where the incident occurred is a very dense grove, primarily of eucalyptus trees, with some open areas inside.
Our four witnesses went into the thick grove, after having waded across the stream. It was about 3:30 a.m. They had been there several hours already, and, using their powerful flash
continued looking for their prey between the trees, following a road made by tractors. But let witness Manuel Gordillo tell us what happened:
"While still on the other side of the river, I told the others, 'Wait a moment, look at the red lights of a car.' The gypsy who was with us (who could not be interviewed — I.D.) began
'Hey, what is that? In my mother's name, in my grandmother's name, what is that?' 'That is a strange thing.' We were seeing it on the ground in the distance. We put out the flashlight
approached. The closer we got, the more light was seen, and then I thought, well it isn't a car. If the car had its back to us, we would have been looking at the drivers, but since we w
walking, it was not logical for it to be always red. Then we threw it off the track a little. We crossed the river to the other side, where it was. We began to hunt and forgot what we ha
seen, enthusiastic in what we were doing. I was practically alone, without hearing any of the others. I shone the light here and there and didn't see anyone. I turned off my flashlight
whistled for them to answer. Then they turned on their flashlights and I said to myself, 'There they are,' because with the trees no one could be seen. Then they came quickly and ask
'Hey, didn't you see that again?' I really hadn't seen it, until they told me about it. What we had seen from the other side was still in that place. There was really a light there, and then
them, 'Are we going to get closer?' They were very scared. The red light was there and it was doing a strange thing, as if it was shaking. Then I told them, 'Watch me from behind, I'
going to get a little closer.'
"The trees did not let us see the place completely. Another companion wanted to approach with me, and we went on ahead of the other two. There was a person or something walkin
around it."
It was not just one light, but a row of lights. He could not see everything, and didn't know how tall the being was. But his legs were very big, and he saw just the legs.
"The object seemed round to me, and it was near the ground, right close to the ground. The lights were low. They were about 3 meters (10 feet) high and they must have been about
meters (13 or 16 feet) across. The lights were of different colors. The man advanced about ten meters (33 feet) and we lost sight of him. He approached again and grabbed somethin
don't know if he went in the object or around it, I couldn't see. I didn't see any door in the object.
"I saw the man up to the waist, as I was stretched out on the ground. The light was behind him, and I couldn't make out well what he was wearing. It seemed to me he was wearing s
or boots, and he was speaking. The voice seemed as if he was in a deep well, it was like 'Mnn, mmm.' The steps were slow, he came toward where we were and went back. I was a l
afraid, and I thought of my wife and my children, so I didn't feel very safe.
"The object was about 30 meters (100 feet) away, and the man approached us. Finally, we got out of there very scared. We no longer felt like hunting. So we left running, and I fell a
others fell on top of me."
From Francisco Lopez Rivero's testimony we can indicate the following: This witness remained behind his companion, and observed the scene in a similar manner, though with add
details. The object seemed to him like a large earthen jar, upside down, with a red light on top, stationary. Toward the center of the object he saw several rows of lights of different c
green , orange, red, and yellow. A little below he observed some brightcolored, silvery legs. He had the impression that at the height of the man's eyes and mouth there was a windo
on a motorcyclist's helmet. He only saw the figure to the waist, and didn't see any arms. The helmet was black or dark, and the rest of the body silvery. As to the sounds emitted by t
being; as well as his movements, he agrees with the other witness. He seemed to be a very strong and tall being, of some two meters (6'7") or more.
On Sunday, January 14, 1979, the investigators went to the site of the supposed landing with Francisco Lopez. After certain difficulties in finding the spot where his observation wa
made, they carefully studied the ground and observed the following:
The place is, as a matter of fact, very wooded, and it is not easy to see. Nevertheless, the exact place where it is supposed that the object landed is a rather circular area, where the tre
themselves are situated in this curious geometric pattern. The land was relatively soft, due to the rains that had fallen since before November. They found no sign of traces except
curious footprint, which seemed to have been impressed into the ground many days before. After carefully drawing the mark, they measured it, and its size was 42 cm. (16.5 inches)
Several meters (yards) farther on they found two more marks, made in the soil, and they were the same size as the first. The appropriate experiments showed the mark, in proportion
height, would correspond to an individual some two meters, ten centimeters (6'11") tall. The distance between the marks was about 13 meters (43 feet).
Thanks to this field investigation, witness Francisco Lopez Rivero gave certain additional details that allowed investigator Antonio Moya Cerpa to make drawings in his presence th
approved, which are included in this report.

Witnesses: Miss S.S. 17, Mr. B.D. 18, Mr. M.S. 16, Miss C.S. 19, Mrs. J.L. 41, Mr. R.L. 16; Date September 6, 1976; Weather Conditions — Clear night, warm weather; Location
West Simi Valley, Ventura County, California.
On the evening of September 6, 1976, the above witnesses viewed an oval shaped object from their home in West Simi Valley.
Mrs. J.L. describes the object in her own words as follows:
"It sat in one place in midair for approximately 45 minutes (the sighting started at 9 P.M.). It had a red light on top and green on the bottom. The position of these lights changed. Th
was a very bright white light in the center. The red and green lights moved around this central light. It then moved straight to the left, up, and then back to its original position. (See
diagram above). It kept moving in that pattern until approximately 11:15 P.M. The white light was much larger than the green or red. The shape seemed to be more round and not de
Other observers mention:
"It moved at 90° angles too rapid for a plane." Mr. B.D.
"The object appeared to be 3 1/2 miles away judging from the mountains in the background." Miss S.S.
"The object wasn't too large, airplanes and jets flying near it were bigger." Mr. M.S.
The police department and the fire department were contacted by the witnesses. The fire department referred them to the Point Mugu Missle Range who in turn contacted a UFO gro
Seattle, Washington. The witnesses were interviewed the following day over the phone. On September 7th, a similar type object was spotted at about the same time by Mr. B.D. who
to follow it in his car and get some pictures. This was about the same time as the first sighting. The pictures never turned out, and the witnesses were unable to follow the object for
long, but did note that it repeated the same type movement as shown in the figure on the previous page.
All of the witnesses in this case were interviewed separately. All reported seeing the same type object as described. They seemed very concerned and were often at times confused a
how to describe what they saw in normal language. Because the object made such strange flight patterns in the sky, and because the witnesses seemed to be highly reasonable peopl
not given to exaggeration, their story is highly believable. Unfortunately, Point Mugu's radar facilities do not pick up well in the Simi area below 3,500 ft. No other reports have bee
received from the witnesses to date, and this case remains unsolved.

The experience of Lonnie Zamora on April 24, 1964 stands as one of the most profound ufo events in the modern history of the phenomena. To this day it remains a case in which a
facts involved support the witnesses claims and it is this kind of case that makes the ufo phenomenon such an enduring mystery. Lonnie Zamora saw a highly unusual device of unk
origin, what can only be described as a "craft" of some kind, and he reported seeing what he believes were occupants. Despite the controversy which often surrounds the subject of U
the incident at Socorro remains an example of what the UFO phenomenon is, in fact, all about.
The following information is based on facts I have gathered from various sources including conversations in person and by telephone with Mr. Lonnie Zamora. This is not intended
complete report on Lonnie Zamora's experience, but is intended to provide a source for some resh details about the case and to clarify others. More than anything else I have made e
effort to ensure that what is here is the truth. I also owe a great deal of gratitude to Mr. Ray Stanford, one of the most thorough and knowledgable investigators I have met. He arrive
Socorro within four days of the incident and authored the definitive book on Zamora's experience and the subsequent investigation. I recommend it to anyone seriously interested in
case and in the subject of UFO's in general. "Socorro Saucer" in a Pentagon Pantry" is available in major libraries but can be obtained from the author. Check HERE for the address.

Socorro is a small town located about an hours drive south of Albuquerque, New Mexico . In April 1964, Lonnie Zamora was a police officer with the town and late in the afternoon
April, 24th he had just dropped his pursuit of a speeding car to go check on what he thought might have been an explosion on the outskirts of town. Thinking that a small shack cont
dynamite might have exploded, he made his way up a rough embankment and then moved slowly along a narrow gravel road that wound beside a small arroyo (a shallow dry gully)
this first more distant vantage point he saw what he thought might have been an overturned car down in the arroyo and radioed back to his headquarters that he was proceeding to ch
out this 'vehicle'. It was from here that he saw what he described as possibly two children or small adults, and he noted that one appeared startled at his approach and seemed to "jum
somewhat".
He moved further along the gravel road and finally stopped his car at the point where he believed he had previously seen the vehicle in the arroyo. It was at this point that he heard w
later could describe as several loud "thumps" or "slams", similar to metal hitting metal. As he left his patrol car and proceeded towards the gulley, he had not gone more than a few s
before he had a full view of an elongated oval shaped object on "girderlike" legs. In that instant a loud roar and bluish flame shot out of the underside of the object and it began to r
Zamora did not hesitate...he hit the ground thinking it was about to explode, then got up running and jumped down on the other side of the gravel road. He heard a whirring noise an
watched the object rise up out of the arroyo, the legs he saw moments before were no longer apparent. He noted that the object had risen to perhaps 20 feet above the bottom of the g
when suddenly the sound stopped completely. There was no more flame visible and he watched as the nowsilent vehicle moved off parallel to the terrain picking up speed as it left
area. He watched it move off into the distance and it eventually disappeared from view.
Almost immediately upon the object having left the area, State Police Sargeant Sam Chavez arrived having overheard Zamora who had radioed wildly to his dispatcher hoping that
someone else might be able to see the object. Together they noted the evidence left in the arroyo...a half burned bush, four angular impressions in the sandy soil where the "legs" had
and several small footprints and other impressions.
From an oil painting based on photographs taken of the actual landing site. The image portrays the object just as it began to lift off and from a viewpoint near where Mr. Zamora
reportedly stood. Mr. Zamora has seen this illustration and stated that it is a good representation of what he observed, though he felt that the "legs" might have been extended slightl
further than is portrayed. The dimensions presented however are taken from both the witnesses description and the exact measurements provided by investigators of the impressions
soil.
Ever since the first report that Zamora had seen some type of symbol on the side of the craft there had been some confusion about just what that symbol was. He had drawn and desc
this symbol to several people soon after the incident, and what appeared to be discrepancies in the description had arisen from various sources. There does appear to be some suppor
believing that the symbol that was widely circulated early on may have actually been a variation of the actual one. The idea that a substitute might have been circulated by the
investigative personnel from the Air Force or other governmental agencies as a way to guard against copycat reports has some merit. Though the actual shape may not be ultimately
important to the overall case I did make an effort to try to obtain an honest description of just what Zamora saw. In one of our telephone conversations he clarified to me that he had
been told not to relate the actual shape and he gave me a description which I realized was slightly different from what I had heard and seen before. I was curious about this and sho
afterward I sent him several pages of small sketches which covered various details of his sighting. I included several variations of this symbol including one that matched what I had
in other places and one that matched what I thought he had described to me. I asked him to merely place a check mark by whichever sketch matched his recollection. Below are seve
sections of the sheets I sent him, and his check marks are visible. But on the section showing the symbols, he was nice enough to actually redraw what he had seen.
Of all the evidence that could be presented to support the contention that what Lonnie Zamora saw was something totally unexplained, perhaps nothing is more compelling than this
article. It appeared in the formerly classified CIA publication entitled "Studies in Intelligence" from the fall of 1966. It was written by Hector Quintanilla, Jr., the former head of the
Force's Project Bluebook.
It gives a history and methodology of the Air Force's investigation of UFO's, and after presenting many of the prosaic explanations that had been encountered, he concluded his artic
with a synopsis of a "Policeman's Report" in which he described the Socorro incident. One short quote from this article in itself makes a profound statement about the reality of som
reports.
Socorro, New Mexico landing, April 24, 1964
"There is no doubt that Lonnie Zamora saw an object which left quite an impression on him. There is also no question about Zamora"s reliability. He is a serious police officer, a pil
his church, and a man well versed in recognizing airborne vehicles in his area. He is puzzled by what he saw, and frankly, so are we. This is the bestdocumented case on record, and
we have been unable, in spite of thorough investigation, to find the vehicle or other stimulus that scared Zamora to the point of panic."

It is my hope that this information is useful to anyone wanting to know more about the subject of unidentified flying objects. Even I find it easy to become disillusioned at times wh

there are many cases, like the Socorro incident, that clearly indicate something physically real, and of a high degree of strangeness, is being seen by honest, reliable witnesses.

A Farmer is Detained by Aliens in France
On July 1, 1965, at about 5:45 in the morning, in the region of Valensole, Basses Alpes, France, farmer Maurice Masse was inspecting his field of lavender when he heard a whistlin
sound, then noticed an eggshaped object with six thin legs and a central pedestal standing nearby. Masse later said the object was about the size of a small car, and he could see two
inside an open doorway. At the same time, he also saw two “small boys,” humanoidlooking beings less than four feet tall, dressed in grayishgreen onepiece coveralls. Masse repo
that they appeared to be gathering handfuls of his lavender. He said they had large, hairless heads, smooth white skin, large slanted eyes, pointed chins and small mouths with no lip
Masse heard them makesoft gurgling sounds, as if communicating. When he approached, one of them pointed a small “tube” at Masse, which immediately immobilized him where h
stood. He remained conscious, watching as they finished their task and then entered the eggshaped object, which rose off the ground, moved quickly away, then suddenly disappear
few moments later. Masse was left standing paralyzed in his field, but regained his mobility about fifteen minutes later.
Two years after the close encounter, Maurice Masse stands at the landing site. (credit: FSR)
Masse reported his encounter in detail to local authorities, including the mayor of Valensole, his parish priest and the gendarmerie. The site was thoroughly inspected, and symmetri
marks were found in the ground exactly where Masse said the legs of the object had been. It was later discovered that lavender would not grow on that spot for a period of ten years
days after the encounter, Masse began to experience bouts of profound drowsiness which caused him to require more than twelve hours of sleep every day for the next several month
Despite his reported immobilization by the humanoid beings, and his later health difficulties, Masse said he had a positive feeling about his encounter. Masse was wellknown and h
respected in his community, and all the local authorities who examined his claims reached the conclusion that he was telling the truth.
The following account is drawn from a series of articles which originally appeared in the English Flying Saucer review (1965a b,c.)
Valensole is a small village in the southeast of France, near to Nice. A significant event occurred there on July 1, 1965. In the month of June, Maurice Masse, a World War Two res
fighter, and a trustworthy farmer according to local police; together with his father had noticed someone had been picking their lavender plants. At 5.45 a.m. Masse was standing by
tractor smoking a cigarette. The tractor was parked by a mound of pebbles and rakings, close to a small vineyard, in the lavender field.
A whistling sound came to his attention which he thought was a helicopter. However, upon looking around the mound he saw an unusual object. It was shaped like a rugby football
size of a car. It stood on a number of legs, stated to have been 6 in number by Bowen (1974:246) and 4 by Vallee (1990:108). There was a central pivot stuck into the ground beneat
Masse noted what he first took to be two children, about aged eight years, close by the object apparently inspecting a lavender plant.
Masse thought at first, from an initial distance of 60m, that these were the people who had been taking his plants. He decided to approach quietly through the vineyard. However, wh
got closer he realised the figures were not children but unusual beings. He left the vineyard and walked though the low height lavender field.
At about 5m distance from the object, one of the beings turned and pointed a pencillike object towards him and Masse was frozen, unable to move. Vallee (1988:27) reports that ma
could still breath and feel his heart beat present.
The beings were described as follows. They were some 120cm tall and wore close fitting, greygreen clothes, but no head covering. Their heads were pumpkinlike, with high fleshy
cheeks. The eyes were large and Vallee (1988:26) adds that Masse told him that the eyes con veyed human expressions. These eyes slanted away around the sides of the face. The m
was merely a slit or hole, without noticeable lips. Their chins were very pointed. Vallee (1988:26) adds their hands were small and nor mal. Grumbling sounds came from their mid
Masse has consistently refused to disclose what – if anything – happened between him and the beings.
After a while the beings reentered their object. Vallee (1988:27) notes the door closed “like the front part of a wooden file cabinet. “ The beings were apparently visible looking at h
from inside the object, while the legs whirled and retracted. The central pivot made a thumping noise. Then the object lifted offand floated silently away.
At 20m distance from the landing spot the object simply vanished fromview. Masse, according to Vallee ( 1988 :27), says: “One moment the thing was there and the next moment it
not there anymore.”
It took some 20 minutes forthe paralysis to wear off. After that Masse went back to Valensole. The proprietor of the cafe des Sports questioned him after being alarmed by Masse’s
appearance. Masse told him part of what had happened, and the police were informed.
The Digne Gendarmerie, lead by a Captain Valet, were called in to investigate.
The traces:
At the time traces were found at the spot where the object had rested. These consisted of a flat imprint just over 1m in diameter. In the centre, where the central support had been, wa
cylindrical hole some 30cm deep and some 15cm diameter. From the hole radiated four flat grooves, making an x shape. Each of the grooves was 2m long and 25cm deep. The soil
was of a nearliquid consistency despite the fact that it had not rained for some time.
That evening Masse and his 18 year old daughter went back to the site . The soil surrounding the central trace was as hard as cement compared to the surrounding soil which crumbl
when held.
After a period of time, a 3 m diameter circular area in the middle of rows of lavender plants died, with only a few weeds continuing to grow. Around the perimeter a num ber of lav
Plants were stunted and withered looking.
The calcium content of the soil, taken from the site, was much higher then in soil taken from other areas of the field (Phenomenes Spatiaux 1966:26)
Masse reploughed the landing site and replanted, but these plants also died.
After effects:
Vallee (1988:27) reports that for several weeks after the event, Masse was overcome with drowsiness and found it difficult to stay awake for more then four hours at a time.
Aime Michel visited Masse on Aug 8,1965, and at the end of the interview showed Masse a drawing of the Socorro object which Masse took to be his object.
Michel reported that Masse appeared anxious, nervous and distressed at interview. Masse said of the beings: “They were good” and n they did not wish to do us any harm.”

more of the ufocontact story from 18th maj 1946; The Gösta Carlsson Incident:
The meeting in the forestglade /clearing in Sweden in 1946

It is the 18th of may 1946, the clock is 10pm. The sky is darkblue and clear, a light breeze is blowing from the east. I once again have taken a seat on the fort´s steeldome at
Skälderviksstranden. I´m sitting and listening on the beutiful birdsong by the thrush, robin and other birds joining the choir. As usual the so called Sjödammarna has really started to
bubble with life by all the different bird´s that nest here.
These dams really is a wonderfull place for birds. Old trees are left standig making them excellent homes to owl´s, woodpecker´s and an unbeliveable ammount of other birds. Sure,
hard for us humans to get here, but thats just the reason why nature has had it´s own way here. Time after time I have had this dream that one day I could make this place a bird
reservation, and keep it just as it is for ever. But one of the most positive thing in my life is that one day, my dream would become true.
It started to get darker, and I realise it is time to head back home. It is now 10:45pm, I turn on my orientationlamp which I always carry with me on my eveningstroll´s.
I walked up on a little hill where you have a great view of both Kronans and Vegeholms forrestland. On the land of Vegeholm right after the birddam, a short way into a birchforrest
consisting of big, old trees, there is a big grassglade, that I know of quite well.
One of my youths "bad" virtues was amongst other´s to get hold of birdeggs of all kind. Then, as now, this was of course against the law. But as young boys we didn´t care much of
the law said, and the law wasńt that strict back then as it is now. In this very glade, yellowhammer, corn bunting, and different kinds of titlings, and in some of the old birches,
´s nested.
By sheer coincidence, I look at the direction of the grassglade, which you can´t see to clear by all the trees. At first, I thought I saw something shiny at the grassglade, but maybe it w
just a reflectance from my lamp. I turn it off, but the light is still there. It might be early season campers or some youth´s that is hanging around the place I thought. I decide to walk
there. I walk down the hill and jumped over a small hole that has been collecting rainwater. On my right there is a couple of sandhills with pines growing on them that obscure the g
bit. I clear the pines and just as I am about to turn in to the glade i spot something that´s forever stuck in my memory.
In the furtherst part of the glade, just a couple of meters from a lonely pine, there is a illuminated craft, one of which I have never seen before or after. My first thought was that it w
carrousel someone had drove there. But I soon realized that would be impossible, as there was no roads leading to the glade.
The craft, or object, had the shape of a discus, and the craft is resting on a sturdy fin in the direction of the lonely pine, and two telescope legs, all three evenly spaced under the circ
In front of the fin on the crafts belly, the is a hatch open, with a ladder and leaders, like those ladders you see on boats. The hatch is about one and a half meter above the ground and
see how light is coming out from the opening. I try to look inside the craft but the angel is to narrow. All I can see is the bright light.
On the craft top there is a streamlined cabin that I estimate to be around 8meter in diameters. With roughly 1 meters spacing there is oval windows, maybe 50cm wide and 30cm hig
While I am watching at the craft I can´t keep from thinking that someone is pulling a prank on me. One thought that goes through my head is that there is maybe German pilots that
escaped from some camp. But deep inside, I know I´m wrong.
On top of the cabin there is a telescopepole/mast, almost like a periscope on a uboat. The height of the mast is about the same as the pine, and the thickness of the craft´s middlepart
estimate to about 4 meters, at the craft side´s about 1 meter, and the mast should be about 5 meter high. At the top of the mast it splits into four parts. Under the top of the mast i
lamp that emitted the strange violette light that I spotet from the trail. The lamp is pointing downward towards the craft and cover the whole craft like a "cheesebowl" with just a few
of light "leaking" outside the craft. The light itself is sort of pulsating from the lamp, kinda like water from a fountain. And the strangest thing of all is that the light has a curved pat
Where the light hits the ground or grass, is dissapear with a sparkling effect, like that of a sparkler. A smell, not to different from ozon is spreading throughout the air. Its like if an e
curtain has diped over the craft.
The "body" and the cabin seems to be one piece. You can´t spot screws, studs or joint anywhere. Around the bellys rim on the craft there is a couple of holes, not unlike those found
turbines, pointing down and are covered with what loke like a damper.
A few meter in front and outside the light´s circle, a man with a white dress on him, is standing. He is dressed like our astronauts is today. No matter how hard I look, I cant see any
buttons, zippers or other "clothingattatchments". On his feets he has blue or black boots that wraps around his legs, around his waist he has a large blue or black belt, on his head
something that looks like a rainhoodie or "windcheater hoodie" with the difference that it also covers the front of his face and are made of some transparent material. On his hand he
fingergloves. On his chest hangs something that looks like a folding camera, but other than that, there is no equipment. The man appears to be a guard. Where I am standing now I´m
about 10meters from the craft, and about 78 meter from this man.
The strange thing was, that when I approached the glade everyone turned to look at me. It was like if I was expected, but not wanted...
On top of the craft by one of the windows there was an additional three men, evidently ocuppied by some kind of work. Right next to them, but below, I see two more men who is as
and inside the lightcircle, turned towards me, there is three girls. All dressed the same way, in the same white dress, boots and belt. All the beings that are inside the light has the
transparent face mask removed to the back of their heads.
Gösta was now about 10 meters from the craft and maybe 78 meters from the guardpost. He could see that the men and women working on the craft had normal earthly featuers an
women, or rather, girls, had light or cendrécoloured hair, cut and managed in a modern manner. The mens hair Gösta never saw, because of the black hoodie they wore, kinda like th
tankdrivers have. From this hood there was something looking like earplugs and it looked like the men was talking to each other via these whitout moving their mouths. Suddenly
something happened.
"The man who was standing outside the light which whom I now understand was serving as a guard did a perfect stop sign with his hand raised. It is a sign that can not be
missinterpried and I stoped. I still have my lamp on my head, but turned off. The guard point´s his "folding camera" looking thing against me, and I get the impression that he is abo
take a picture of me. I think I hear a crack from my lamp on my head, that I have turned off, but don´t bother with that.
"I´m about to take a few step closer to him, but he immidietly raises his hand and at the same time I hear a crack again from my lamp. I stand still, and the guard take a lap around th
craft, allways on the outside of the light, the men and girls continue their work at the cabin....
It is possible there is two guards, on the backside of the craft. This might explaine why there allways was a guard where I was.
I feel just like a wild animal must feel there outside of the lightcircle like a safarihunter makes out in the bushes in the african night. Suddenly, a girl with dark curly hair steps d
the ladder of the craft. In her hand she holds what looks like a bag and hands out cups to the men and girls.
Everyone stops working a starts to drink from the cups.
I get the impulse to step forward again and talk to them, but the guard once again raises his hand in line with my face and gives me the stop sign and everyone look at me with a
seriousness in their faces. The guard too, like a police officer "this is as far as you get!" kinda look. He won´t take his eyes off from me for one second.
It is like the "cheesecup/dome" of light scrrens of the craft from its surrondings and the guard is there to prevent anyone from entering it. Maybe the light would hurt me if I passed i
When I take a step back, everyone continue their work and I feel slightly relieved. Two of th girls give me a beutifull smile and I can see their flashing white theeths. I can brag with
almost never being afraid of anything, and I have spent enough time out in the woods to not belive in the devil or trolls. But this was something else.
The people at the craft makes me think about folks from the pentecostal church or something similar. All are happy and glad. You get the impression that they havńt got a problem
world, and what they had, they have solved allready.
By the time I am standing there and watching, I can see the crew go in and out the craft, up the ladder next to the fin. When they do that, I observe how the two telescope legs move
and down. They are spring loaded like the front wheel of an airplane.
Just as I am about to take a step forward again, the girl with the dark curly hair steps outside the cabin again. In her hand she hold a bright shiny object which draws the atention from
the other in the crew. She takes a few step towards the outskirt of the lightdome and throws the object out with a quick motion. It falls right next to a little upslope.At the same
a pearly happy girls laughter, and I realise this is the first time I hear a noise from them this whole time. But I have heard the crackling of twiggs by the gaurds feet on the grass whic
spread all over the ground.
The whole thing starts to be very surreal to me, and allthough I am one those person who has never tasted alchohol in any form, and can therefore not blame this on some kind of
hallucination or some other kind of imagination, I decide to hike back to Skälderviksstrande and the come back to see if it is still here. It takes about 20minutes to get there. I take of
shoes and socks and wade out in the water to wet my feet just to make sure I´m not dreaming. It is freezing so I am awake allright.
This begins to feel slightly fritgheening. I decide to walk along the beach for abit and take another path to the way back to the glade so that I come in from the "back" of the craft ins
When I am about half way there I got up on the sandhills/dunes again and sit down on a old fort to put my socks back on again and look at the direction from where I first saw the
Where I am, there is dense youngforrest so I can´t see anything at all.
Then, suddenly, I see a red light. At first I thought it was the moon rising, but after closer inspection, I realise that isn´t the case. Slowly, and majestic, the craft, wish I now see clear
rising. It´s almost like a ballon rising. Only a whining sound, like that of a vacuumcleaner can be heard. Higher and higher it goes with a halo of red light from the turbine holes und
craft. At about 400500 meters altitude it slows down slightly, begins to pendle sideways a bit, I now see that the pole/mast is not up, and the two legs and the fin is nowhere to bee s
either.
It is a little hazy outside now, but the whole manouver is clearly visible and the whole craft is illumintade by the red light and the cabin windows light. And then the craft tilts so it is
pointing slghtlu up or down towards the nightsky or the ground. The red light becomes more intense, and the craft shoots out with a tremendous speed, the red light turns into
craft moves sideways from left to right and back again as it was searching for something, the light turns red again as the craft slows down for a bit, but the light turns to violette alm
immediately and the craft is speeding again. Three times I watch the craft make the same thing before it finaly dissapears over Ängelholm.
I stand still for a good ammount of time among the sanddunes and a quite disturbed by what I just had witnessed. We who lived through the second world war was used to see many
terrible weapons from both the allies and axis reaplanes, atombombs, the Germans V1 and V2 bombs that almost nothing suprised us anymore. Despite the war enden a year ago
almost certain this was some secret but delayed weapon that "they" had kept testing. But had Hitler had one of these craft. surely he wouldn´t had lost the war.
First severly years later when report of unindentified objects started to become more frequent, I started to make the connection between my observation and these new one. Maybe,
ńt a secret weapon I had witnessed. Maybe not even a craft from this earth. ..This I can tell you, if the people I saw wasn´t from this planet and from some alien planet, there
of a difference from human and them. Maybe alot more technically advanced than us, but other than that, like hight, looks and so on, if you took of their suits, I dont think you could
the difference from them to us.
I go back over the sanddunes to get to the usual way home. Landshövdingeroad is rough and hard to ride a bike on, so I walk a little, ride a little, walk a little and so on. It is now
completely dark, so, to be able to see, I tried turning on my lamp. Allthough I flick the on switch, nothing happens. I screw off the bottom and take out the batteries. It feels hot, I fig
shortcircut had occured. For a moment I think of the guard and the strange cracking or flicking sound he made when he pointed the blach thing against me. But just seems to unreal
me. When I the day after put in some new batteries and tried the lamp, it worked lika a charm. Of course it could have a natural explanation, but it did occured during all this, becau
had it lit right up to when I went down towards the light when I shut it off because I wanted to sneak up to whomever it was there in the glade.
It had never happened before, not after.
When Gösta Carlsson continued along Landshövdingeroad home that night he followed the road and didn´t take any more trip out into the woods. When he lay down on his bed to
some sleep, he couldnt fall asleep. The incident in the woods had disturbed him too much, and his thoughs was on the strange craft and the crews. Before he finaly was able to sleep
decided that the first thing when he woke up was to head back to the glade.
Early next morning, after a cup of coffe, Gösta took his bike and headed towards the beach. In a few minutes he was back where it all had happened. He had returned by one reason
would there be any remains left from the craft, or crew?
It was.

When Gösta arrives to the glade just after 4am on the sunday morning a light rain begins to fall over Ängelholsmforrest. The sun is up since an hour ago and a lamp is not needed no
When he for the second time in under 6 hours jumps over the little hole withe the rainwater in it and follows the sandduned towards the glade his heartrate begins to rise. What will
amongst the trees?
This time he got a notebook and folding ruler. If there are any remains, he is prepared. He couldn´t be sure. And at first glance he was dissapointed. From afar he couldn´t see anythi
First when I got closer I saw the traces, he tells. The marks after the turbine holes was the most apparent trace. Where they where, the grass was burnt off completly. In a ring, abou
wide the sand was completely exposed. A greyish layer of ash was all that remained of the grass. The ring was that deep, just a couple of centimeters, so the liftoff couldn´t have
kind of power as we are used to here on earth with our veichles. And that would be according to what I saw the truth. As what I witnessed wasn´t some known craft with any kind o
propulsion system we know about.
Beside the burned ring, Gösta also observed the markings after the fin and the two landinglegs. A few meters away, the branches on the pine that was closest to the craft is burned of
some was covered in black ash, a couple of years later they wither and dies.
Gösta measure the place and take note of the sizes of the circles. He make a crude sketch and estimate that the craft was 16meter in diameter. The prints from the two landinggears h
diameter of about 90cm.
Further, you could see bootprints in the grass. Nothing spectacular, the sole of the boot is solid, with a rifle grove pattern. The lenght dont deviate either, Gösta mesure it to be about
size of 3944m.
The boot prints is located in a quarter circle from north to east off of the burned mark.
But there is more findings.
Just as I was about to leave, I remembered the shiny object the girls had thrown away. I remembered the spot it landed in. When I looked for it, I saw somethin glimmering in the g
and lifted up what looked like shiny staff made of what it looked like, violette quartz, about 4 cm thick, 5cm wide, and about 12 cm tall. It had rounded corners and was burned and
smelted in the other end.
A few decimeter from there I found a ring with the size about 17 in some kind of a greenish metal and a beutifull stone in it. It didńt look like our modern rings, this one was more.
There where a couple of "X" markings on it, which I guess was kinda like initials. My first thought was that someone had dropped it and I should turn it in to the police, but I later
connected it to the craft.
Inside the lightdome, close to the burned pine, Gösta finds two of the cups the woman had served the crew. He picks them up and note the strange looks with the bent pip, almost lik
old oillamp. When he shakes it he can clearly hear that it still is some liquid content inside it. With his findings in his pockets he starts to ride his bike home to write a report to
authorities. But, the report to Försvarsstaben (swedish defence staff) never gets sent away. Other, more strange, happenings stops him from doing so.
When I got home to show my wife my findings, the first thing she said to me was "But, you´re face is all yellow" I looked in the mirror, and right she was. I was all yellow. What w
going on? For a moment I started to get really worried. Maybe I had touch on something dangerous. But then I saw that my coat also was yellow. And I could wash it off easily with
tapwater. I took some of it and put it under my microscope. Phew, it was pollen. And I knew from where too, the birches of course. The branches had scratch my face on my way to
glade.
It was about at that time I started to figure out a method, which succeded over my expectation, and made it able for me and my company I started in 1952 to gather pollen in an alm
unlimited quantity, and made it possible for me to make a medical product solely based on a resource that has been around for all eternity but never been thought of. So yes, sometim
polish my quartzstaff a little (Sorry but I just hade to lol that one /Netlas OP) and think about the strange happening, the strange men and girls, and wonder where they could have co
from, where were they headed, and will they come back.
What happened to Gösta Carlsson in the grassglade these hours between may the 18th and 19th 1946 would led to a series of unexplanied happenings. Gösta started to have vivid d
in the nights, dreams that just maybe wasn´t dreams. Dreams that brought him back to the strange people he saw that night.


There was a particularly interesting and pretty much forgotten case which got its own small article. This was "The Ivinghoe Flying Saucer" of February 1962, Aston Clinton, UK. T
witness' drawings of the incident are at the left. The one witness was driving home at 3:30AM, when he spotted an lowhanging UFO [30 foot above ground or less] hovering above
road. It was oval shaped with squared dark marks around the disk edge. Its diameter was 40 feet. As he closed to twenty feet away, his car engine lost revs and no amount of "floorin
made any difference. His lights, however, did not fade. Changing gears made no difference. The object paced his laboring car for 200 yards, when a white haze appeared to envelope
["like a halo around the Moon"]. He knew that this thing was solid because his headlights reflected from it. The craft then veered sharply right whisking frost from trees as it passed
nearby, and vanished with terrific acceleration. The witness went to the police, who assessed him as sober and sensible, and apparently convinced of the truth of his claim. UFO
researchers met with him and walked the sighting area. No radiation was found, but several ironcontaining objects were found to be "highly magnetic", which the team found intere

From A. C. Urie, who operates the Auger Falls Trout Farm, six miles west of Blue Lakes Ranch to Snake River Canyon, came perhaps the most detailed account of any of the fast f
objects the nation has yet produced.
The flying saucer Urie saw was skimming along through Snake River Canyon at a height of about 75 feet at 1:00 pm Wednesday. At 9:30 am the same day, L. W. Hawkins, Twin Fa
county commissioner and former county sheriff, also saw two circular objects soaring along at great speeds near Salmon Dam 40 miles south west of Twin Falls.
Here is Urie's eyewitness description of the flying discs, seen by him and his son, Keith, 8, and Billy,10:
"I obtained a closeup view of the flying saucer as it passed the trout farm at 1:00pm August 13th going down Snake River Canyon at a height of about 75 feet from the canyon floo
would estimate the speed about a 100 miles per hour."
Urie explained that the incident occurred while the two boys were coming across the river from the north side in a boat. He had become concerned about what was delaying them, a
walked toward the river to see if they were all right.
"I had a side view of a distance of about 300 feet and almost was level with the thing," he continued. "Two of my boys, Keith and Billy were below me and they also saw it at about
angle. They both a lower and a side view, and we and we were staring at it from the north side of the facing toward the north. The boys saw it coming from about a half a mile up th
canyon, and we all lost site of it in less then a mile."
While the the impression was still vivid in their minds, the three all got together and made rough sketches of what they had seen. These inturn were the basis of the artist conception
strange affair by Vic Goertson of Twin Falls for the TimesNews.
"The canyon floor underneath at that particular point was that it rode up and down over the hills and hollows at a speed indicating some type of control faster then the reflexes of ma
my opinion it is guided by some type of instruments and must be powered by atomic energy, as it made very little noisejust a swish when it passed by."
Urie described the size as about 20 feet long by 10 feet high and 10 feet wide, giving it an oblong shape. It might be described as looking at an inverted pieplate, or broadbrimmed
hat that been compressed from two sides.
Pressed for his opinion of just what it was, he said he was convinced there was something to this "flying saucer" situation. "I know a number of people who have also seen them, and
know now that they're not just imagining seeing these things or trying to get their names in the paper.
"I do know that it scared the boys, and made me feel uneasy," he added.
Tracing down a rumor that county commissioner Hawkins had seen an unusual object in the air on the same day as Urie's experience, the TimesNews called him at his Filer home.
"Yes I did," he replied without hesitation. "I'll have to admit, I've been skeptical all along until I saw it with my own eyes.I can't say what it was, but I can say there is something in t
air."
Hawkins related that while at Salmon dam Wednesday morning, a sound resembling that of an echo of a motor caused him to look upward, and there he saw to circular objects that
reflected light. They were traveling at a great speed, and higher then most airplanes, according to Hawkins.
Aside from this, he declined to add details, except to say, "there's something in the air."
His general description however, corresponded closely to hundreds of persons who reported seeing "flying saucers" after Kenneth Arnold, Boise business man, touched a deluge by
of coming upon nine disclike objects while he was flying in his private plane in Washington.
Thereafter the nation became increasingly "flying saucer" conscious creating a state of mind for four teen age Twin Falls boys to cause a mild sensation when they built a model flyi
disc and tossed in a local yard July 10th. The was subsequently revealed as a hoax, following the investigation by the army and the FBI.
There after the saucer reports tapered off into a few scattered incidents until the question was revived by this weeks occurrences.
Speculation has ranged from mention that the discs could be army navy guided missile experiments, or they could be experiments by some foreign country, to something out of this
What ever they are, alot of people have seen something.

The character of the reports
17 October 1973, Bucks County, South/Eastern Pennsylvania
It was 8:20 p.m. at the Bristol Township Police Headquarters as Officer Evans stepped outside to routinely inspect the canine training area. Suddenly, a strange glowing object str
across the nighttime sky and abruptly halted. As Evans watched in amazement, the red glow of the object slowly subsided and the outline of a silvery disc appeared. It was a UFO!
watching over his shoulder, Evans ran to his office and quickly burst into his locker in search of a pair of binoculars: upon returning to the grounds, the officer found the alien craft s
hanging there, absolutely motionless, over the Blue Ridge section of Levittown. As he peered through his 10×50s, he noticed that this was a flying machine of most unusual design,
unlike anything he had ever seen before.
It looked like a big metallic cigar, he thought, had no wings or stabilisers, and it sported a red light on one end and a white light on the other. These flashed at a much slower rate
those of conventional aircraft, and he noticed a row of white lights, or windows situated along the thing's central edge. Abruptly, from a groove or tube positioned just beneath the
windows, a redorange glow emanated and quickly engulfed the craft's entire underside, casting a brilliant aura about 30 to 50 feet below the object.
Then, like a tracer bullet, it sped away toward the turnpike and suddenly stopped again, hanging there in the sky as its crimson glow appeared to dissipate once more.
Then the UFO suddenly flared up again as it zipped along in the direction of Route 13 and, after pausing at that location for a second or two, the UFO started up once more and sk
parallel course with Bath Road.
At this point, the officer realised that a curiously misshapen boxlike aerial pattern was being flown. Evans raced back to the K9 office and excitedly phoned his wife, for they re
nearby and she came running across the field and joined him at the bleacher section of the training area in a matter of minutes. While in each other's embrace, they stood watching
fascination as a second craft (which looked exactly like the first UFO) suddenly came into view. At this point, both UFOs began flying in parallel formation performing even more o
patterns in the sky and, in what could only be called a spectacular finish, the gleaming discs flew in and out across each other's path, as if weaving a zigzag aerial trail.

On April 19, 1978, police officer Mark Coltrane was on patrol in the vicinity of Colfax, a small town with a thousands of inhabitants in Wisconsin, USA. At midday, he decided to s
car to eat something, in a small isolated area. He noted that his radio was emitting crackles.
He then noticed a metalic looking disc raising towards the the sky at a short distance from the parking space.
While the object seemed to move towards him, Coltrane picked up his Polaroid camera, came out of the car and snapped some photographs. The object was so close in one of the im

In [the second] photograph the object is starting to move away.
The total observation lasted a few minutes, the object being being lost from his sight when it accelerated and fled in the distance.

Disc landing in reservoir, part of series of sightings in New Jersey
Date of sighting: September 15, 1962
Location of sighting: Oradell, New Jersey, USA
DISC LANDING REPORTED IN NEW JERSEY –IN U.S. &amp; ABROAD SIGHTINGS CONTINUE
A series of New Jersey police sightings after a reported disc landing in a reservoir – important because police and several newspapers openly rejected an attempted “hoax” explanati
The action began on September 15. At 5 p.m., two shiny discs were seen over Oradell, N.J. At 6 p.m., two shiny round UFOs were sighted by former Navy flying officer J. J. McVic
just across the state line. At 7:50, NICAP member Victor Cipolla saw a glowing object descend toward Oradell, and other witnesses saw it dart back and forth near the reservoir. At
three teenaged boys saw a bright ovalshaped ob ject land in the reservoir, with a loud splash. A man working nearby also heard the splash, according to police. After a moment the
strange device took off, climbed silently at high speed.
As McGuire AFB began an investigation, new reports came in. On September 21, four Hawthorne police officers watched a device with two beams like headlights hover over a qua
Officer George Jediny, in a report to NICAP, said the UFO – which he sketched as a disc – seemed to revolve. The quarry night watchman, Wm. Stocks, said the UFO had also appe
the night before. When he drove a Jeep nearer to check up, the object maneuvered to keep out of the headlights. (Similar reaction often reported. )
Just after midnight, September 24, the same or a similar device was seen over the quarry by over a dozen Hawthorne police officers and the chief reporter of the N. J. State Press, G
Della Penta. When a policecar spotlight was pointed up at the UFO, it began to move. Before it left, Mr. Della Penta shot 18 feet of color film. (Analysis not completed. )
Later, Oradell police received a letter signed “The Bergenfield Pranksters,” purporting to be from some boys who said they faked the sightings with aluminumcoated model aircraft
supported by helium balloons. This was promptly rejected by the police and newspapers that checked the facts, among them:
The Newark Evening News, Science Writer Philip Del Vecchio. “It would have been impossible for them (the Bergen County boys) to put their model planes so high that they could
seen in Hawthorne… No object such as they could have put together could have moved at the lightning speeds attributed to the UFO. The light.., could not have been produced by
amateurs. This newspaper makes an appeal to other residents …with the assurance that reports will be treated with dignity.
The Hawthorne Observer, rebuking those who accepted an unsigned letter from a town miles away, said it was time to treat the reports seriously.
The Riverdale Sunday Trend: “Suppose the real hoax is the letter purporting to explain the whole thing?”
The Hawthorne News Record: “To imply so flippantly that our police officers spent almost half an hour looking at a balloon and then watched it speed away at an incredible rate – a
quite an opposite direction from Oradell–is insulting.”
The Newark Sunday News: “Flying saucers are still a big mystery…are seen with great regularity by sane and logical inhabitants of the planet Earth. What they are and where they
from and what their mission is has not yet been satisfactorily explained.”
Regardless of the final outcome, these New Jersey sightings have shown that an increasing number of newspapers no longer accept quick brushoff answers to sightings by compete
witnesses.

UFO flaps, like a number of simultaneous house fire incidents, are filled with a high emotional charge, much confusion, and the excitement of the moment so, it's after the repor

The extraterrestrial case of the "Sagrada Familia" neighborhood, Brazil of 1963
Considered a Brazilian classic, this case occurred on August 28, 1963, in the Sagrada Familia neighborhood of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais (B
and was researched by the Brazilian ufology group CICOANI.

The three boys Fernando, Ronaldo and José Marcos went out to the backyard after dinner with the specific purpose of washing the coffee strain
water barrel (used to be a metal barrel of gasoline), next to the cistern. José, the youngest one seven years old at the time, quickly went to the
barrel where he completely lowered his head and arms inside the barrel to collect water with a bottle he had in his hand.

Then right behind him came Ronaldo who suddenly noticed a strange "glow" in the backyard. When he looked up to see what was causing the
unusual brightness, he came across with a spherical object. The object was illuminated internally and its walls were transparent. The object was stationary and hovered over an avoc
tree. Its distance from the boys was about eight meters (26 feet). Its size was estimated to be around three and a half meters (12 feet) in diameter. On top of the UFO was a sort of V
antenna, each rod had a small ball at its upper end. In the middle, there was another kind of smaller vertical antenna.

Due to its transparency, four beings became visible that looked quite like us, excluding a curious detail: instead of two eyes, they had a single eye in the middle of the forehead jus
cyclops. At least one of them was a woman, because unlike the other three who had no hair, this alien had blonde hair neatly combed back. They were all seating on stools that had a
single leg. The seats were arranged in a way so that one would be in front, two in the middle and one behind. Ahead of the front seat was a console that seemed to be the control pan
the craft.
In a few seconds, after Ronaldo’s observation, the object emitted downward two beams of yellow light, forming two columns of light. Then between
beams of light descended one of the aliens, floating slowly down. The creature began to walk toward the cistern where the child José remained with his he
inside the barrel collecting water. Apparently, José was not aware of what was happening. When the creature was at a distance of about two meters (6½ fe
from José, he extended his arm making it clear that his intentions were at least to touch him. But Fernando got desperate and interpreted that as an aggress
that he was going to kidnap José.

Without hesitation, Fernando ran and jumped on the child José, knocking him to the ground and stood before that strange being. Instantly, the alien withdr
and made a series of gestures to Fernando with his hands, which were accompanied by head movements. The creature began to speak several completely
unintelligible words. Then the alien sat on the edge of the cistern facing the UFO, which remained hovering at low level.
Since this one eyed being had given his back to Fernando, he grabbed a brick from the ground and managed to raise his arm to throw it at the creature. But, immediately, the alien go
and went toward Fernando. A yellow beam of light shot out of a small rectangle that was on the chest area of his clothes and was projected well on the hand that Fernando held
The brick fell to the ground and, inexplicably, the three boys were tranquil and completely calm instead of running and screaming for help.

And the alien stood there in front of the three boys, talking continuously in a language totally incomprehensible. And it was at this time that the boys could observe the creature wel
being was over two meters tall and had only one big eye in the middle of the forehead. His eye was dark, without sclera and placed on the base of the nose. The possibility existed
was the pupil, because it stood out for being darker. Above the eye was a mark that seemed to be the eyebrow. His face was completely red. It was possible to see some teeth while t
alien opened his mouth to speak. He wore a kind of diving suit and had his head wrapped in a round and transparent helmet, whereby his face was clearly visible. The clothes
was using were brown to the waist, white to the knees and then black below (as if it were a kind of boots). His clothing seemed to be made of leather or something similar and had s
"wrinkles" in parts corresponding to the limbs and the chest. Even so, the boys reported that there was a "copper" colored box placed on his back.

A little later, the alien made a gesture slowly raising his hand and pointed to the moon, as if indicating that he was about to take a trip to
satellite. Shortly thereafter, the alien walked toward the UFO. When José Marcos saw that he was walking away, he asked him, "Will you return
Surprisingly, the alien turned and nodded his head up and down, as if agreeing with what the boy had asked him. Then quickly, turned
and continued walking towards the UFO. But before he got to the craft, the alien bent down and picked up a plant from ground with his
When he finally came to the exact spot where he had floated toward to the ground, he waved his hand and the two columns of yellow light
reappeared. As in his arrival, the being began to float slowly rising towards the craft. Once inside the UFO, the alien again sat down with others
Finally, the craft issued a glow and flew silently toward the east, fading and then disappeared.
Only after the craft disappeared, the boys ran into the house screaming and calling for their mother. Dona Maria José, the boys’ mother, was
alarmed by the appearance of her terrified children and sent a girl to a nearby bar to get her husband, Mr. Alcides Gualberto. He, in turn, came
immediately to see what had happened. Mr. Alcides Gualberto found that there were small triangular marks on the ground of the backyard
precisely on the path that the children claimed that the alien cyclops had made. The children were very frightened and refused to return to the
backyard for several days.

The Walter Rizzi Alien Contact – Most Fascinating Case You’ll Ever Read – Rizzi Begged Aliens To Go With Them

The Walter Rizzi Contact:

Location: Grodner Pass, Dolomite Mountains, Italy
Date: July 1968 Time: 01:00 a.m.
The witness, Walter Rizzi, had been working with a Bolzano firm, as their representative for all Southern Tyrol. Since he had been born in the Dolomite Mountains himself (in
di Fassa) it had always given him great pleasure to travel around in this region, and thus it came about that he had his UFO experience, one night in July of that year. He had sp

times he had been within meters of driving off the road and over the edge so finally he decided that, at the first favorable opportunity, he would pull up and park beside the road an

food to a Holy Man who had been living in the mountains for more than a hundred years and never came down into the valley, and she said she was the only person permitted to tak

for purifying the spirit and for achieving a positive influence in the Cosmic Magnetic Field. Once a month the old hermit retired into isolation and remained immobile like a statue
days.
He told Rizzi that he was able to travel through the Universe, and there were countless numbers of planets far distant from our solar system and inhabited by completely
creatures. He prophesized that Rizzi would one day meet beings from the Cosmos and that they would provide him with the assurance and the certainty of the existence of life thro
the Universe. Rizzi asked him to tell him more about his future, and he said that the “voice of your conscience is already seeking for the Light, and that all he needed to do was to c

be simply by means of a powerful odor. Finally after many years, Rizzi did manage, every three or four months or so, to reach such concentration that, wherever he might be, he
receive a strong smell of roses and lilies of the valley.
Returning to the matter of the enormous object, Rizzi was instantly convinced that the moment had now come that had been foretold by the old hermit. The ground sloped away
from the side of the road and as it was very dark he had to take his flashlight. Treading with great care, he made his way down to the level area where the huge object was standing,
he got closer he could see it more and more clearly. There was now another break in the belt of mist and his heart started beating madly. He could feel the veins in his neck
swollen, but he had no fear, he was merely terribly excited.
The object was wonderfully beautiful, silvery in color, and about 80 meters in diameter, standing on three legs about two meters long and about two meters thick at the bottom.

himself suddenly halted, blocked with a sensation that his body weighed 1,000 kilos. He could not move another inch and found that great effort was needed to breathe. The tran

Their mother ship is propelled by a different sort of energy. It is of the same shape of their craft, but is merely far, far bigger; Rizzi thinks the alien said that it had a diameter
‘kilometers’. The mother ship carries many more of the smaller craft, in addition to their own, and it also has very small type of unmanned craft (or drone) which is sent out to
information. These are operated by a particular sort of magnetic drive. When not in an atmosphere these small drones are subject to no particular speed limit, and they suffer no
from attraction or temperatures, etc. The alien said that aboard the mothership hundreds of their type of beings are living just as they do on their home planet. He said that they fl
‘neutral channels’ which exist in the intermediate stretches of space. This is done in order to avoid being drawn into the magnetic fields of other planets or encountering
‘dead planets’. Rizzi asked what sort of defensive weapons they had, to which the alien replied that they can disintegrate anything, even at great distances. He motioned Rizzi to
stone that was lying about two meters from him. Rizzi picked it up and was told to attempt to throw the stone—which weighed about a kilogram—at the cupola of the UFO. Rizzi
himself around twice to develop a better throwing speed and hurled the stone with all his strength at the cupola whereupon a whitishlilac colored beam of light shot out from it
stone exploded with a dull report and Rizzi did not even see a single fragment fall to the ground.
Rizzi then asked why they were not willing to help us with their technology and remain in our planet and also how long it would be before we had their kind of technology. Th
made Rizzi understand that, firstly, they are not allowed to interfere in the development of another planet, and that the time they spend in our solar system makes them age far too r
Secondly, he said that we would never reach their level of evolution, since the crust of our planet is far too variable and that in the near future there will be a displacement of the po
the process of adjustment to this Polar Shift, an enormous crack would develop in the surface of our planet and this would entail an upheaval on the Earth that would destroy 80%
living things here, leaving the survivors to carry on, on a habitable strip of the planet. At this point Rizzi asked the alien if he believed in God, he seemed a bit surprised at the qu
but made Rizzi understand with a cosmic turn of phrase that ‘everything’ is God—we, nature, the planets, rocks, grass—in fact everything that exists, Rizzi also asked them how t
and to what age do they live, the alien replied that they die when the cosmic energy within them runs out and that they live about a hundred times longer than we do, reckoning
basis of our planetary time cycle.
Meanwhile the robot had stopped working. It became smaller, the cylinder grew narrower and moved towards the center of the UFO, where an orange light came on, and it went i
craft as though floating. Consequently, Rizzi understood that they were leaving. Then the other being in the cupola signaled to Rizzi in salutation. He did not have a very clear v
him, but he looked the same as the one standing beside him. During the whole time that Rizzi had been talking with the being, the object had been enveloped in a fleecy white light
threw no shadows and did not hurt the eyes. He now asked the being whether he could give him something of theirs. He said no, since it would be harmful to Rizzi. Rizzi
fascinated with this being that he asked him whether he could take him with them, saying that it would be all the same to him whether or not he ever returned. Then he was overcom
great wave of emotion at the mere thought that he would not see them again and he started to weep. He even knelt down and begged the alien to be taken with them, he tried to
arms around him but every time he did so he was stopped. The alien then motion to Rizzi to stand up, his eyes then glowed with a strange light which sent a feeling of warmt
through Rizzi’s body. The alien made Rizzi understand that he was very brave and that he had been lucky on two counts: firstly if he had gone as much as one meter closer to their c
would have been disintegrated. But as they had been controlling the ring, their magnetic field had not been permitted to extend beyond the diameter of the craft. Secondly, he ha
lucky to see them at such close quarters and to be able to talk to them. But that neither he nor any being from this Earth can be with them, and even less, travel with
spacecraft. The alien then raised his arm in a greeting, just like in the beginning of the encounter and Rizzi was flung far away from the object by a powerful force, while the
returning to the machine disappeared into the brightly lit ring. Up in the cupola the other being waved to Rizzi with his long arms. The white light of the object was now growing d
and meanwhile this force which he had just mentioned had continued to push him away until he was at a distance of some 300 meters or so, where he found that he once more was
move freely. The light from the cupola had now turned to violet. The outside of the craft was violet also, with transitions now and then to orange. At this point the machine was
noise like a circular saw being started up. It began to move, and rose to about two or three meters or so above the ground, and Rizzi watched the three legs, one after the other
retracted. The violet light was now growing steadily whiter, until at last it was totally white. Then he heard for a moment a sharp whistle that he felt was going to blow his head o
object then started to dip from side to side, as though bidding him goodbye, and slowly it rose to a height of about 300 meters or so. Then in the twinkling of an eye, it shot straight
the sky at a terrifying speed and was gone. Rizzi, tears running down his face was overcome with despair. The air seemed warm, and he touched the ground and it felt tepid also. T
had now cleared, it was quite dark and the sky was full of stars. 20 days after the even, he drove back to the spot where the UFO had stood, in order to take photographs of the ma
by the weight of the craft. (These marks can still be seen today). One thing that astounded him greatly was that near where the opening was in the craft, from which the light was b
out, the grass had grown to be three times as long as the rest of the grass around.
After the event, Rizzi found that his watch was losing as much as two hours in a day, he eventually had to discard it and for a mouth he felt very tired the whole time and lost
hair. He cured himself with fresh honey, coffee, eggyolk and brandy—a preparation that he had learned from his grandmother. He also took garlic pills thrice a day.

(Editorial Note by Earthfiles Reporter and Editor Linda Moulton Howe: In September 1998, a source I interviewed at length who wishes to simply be called "Kewper" told me that
worked for both the CIA and the Army Signal Corps between 1956 and 1960. He was stationed at an Army school that taught encryption in the southeastern United States.
His supervisor asked Kewper to join a highly classified CIA group to analyze photographs, drawings, documents and other evidence from around the world related to the presence o
nonhuman intelligence. Kewper said in August 1958, he, his boss and five other CIA colleagues flew to Nellis AFB, Nevada for a meeting with a USAF Colonel in an area built in
Papoose Mountains near Groom Lake called S4.
There, the group not only saw seven round craft inside a hollowed out area of the Papoose Mountains, but were taken to an office to communicate telepathically with a grey nonhum
being working in some capacity with the U. S. government. The drawing below is by Kewper of the being he saw in that August 1958 meeting. For more information about Kewper

Soul Transfers from Body to Body
[ Editor's Note: The first week of March 1991, I received a brown, legalsized envelope by Certified Mail postmarked February 28, 1991, from Porterville, California. The envelope
contained an audiocassette, letter and drawings from a woman named Linda Porter then 45yearsold, having been born in 1946.
The incidents and drawings from her life time of interaction with nonhumans is detailed in my book, Glimpses of Other Realities, Vol. II: High Strangeness see Earthfiles Shop. O
Linda's experiences relates directly to Chapter 8 from In League With A UFO © 1997 by Lou Baldin.
Linda Porter: “I was shown at some time a room with very tall, clear tubelike containers or cylinders on a raised platform, which seemed to be at the center of the room. Inside thes
standing upright, naked and appearing to be asleep were humans, or at least they looked human to me. They looked like they were in some kind of suspended animation.
“I don't think they were dead because their color was too good. They were floating in what appeared to be a purple gas. It was very thick and hard to see through, but it swirled arou
much that you could see the people as it moved. I was never told anything, at least that I remember. It was just like I was taken into the room, showed them, and then brought back o
and that was it. I don't remember asking questions, and I don't remember the nonhumans saying anything.

where three people were in tubes. She felt the people were alive, but in a state of suspended animation and that the man on far right in tubes was a younger clone she later saw activa

“There was a praying mantis being and lightfilled room. I remember the being slowly coming around the corner and facing me. He stood very still and simply waited, as if he knew
frightening he appeared to me. Eventually he began to talk to me, although as yet, I do not have any memory of what was said. He seemed to possess a great deal of dignity and gav
impression of being quite old.
“After he finished saying whatever he had to say, I turned around and he walked me to this room (filled with dense light). The memory ends with me about to enter the room and the
thought, ‘Translated into the Light.’ Whatever that means, it has to do with what happened.”
Linda Porter's drawing of praying mantis being and lightfilled room
she remembered from a 1963 abduction experience in Covina, California,
when Linda was 17yearsold. She thought what happened in the lightfilled room was connected to her later "soul transfer" into a healthier clone
of her body.
"I was taken abaord the craft that all of this occurred on. Even though it began with the praying mantis type, the alien who was actually with me through all this was whitish, about f
feet tall (maybe a little taller), and had huge eyes with black pupils.
“I was taken into the ‘room of light’ and shown a man about 46yearsold who was very close to death. He was lying in a rectangular container.
“I do not remember the mechanics of how this was done, but his soul was then lifted up out of his dying body! It left the body in the area of the solar plexus (abdomen). It was abou
and onehalf feet long, five inches wide and was a breathtakingly beautiful, soft, iridescent yellow with a white, glowing inner core that radiated a very gentle heat. There was a pas
orange layer around the yellow.
“The soul floated across the room to another body taken from one of the tubes. The tube body looked like the man would have appeared at about 25 years of age. The new body app
empty. I don't know any other way to describe it like an empty container. The 'old body' was now bluish in color and obviously dead.

Britain’s Roswell: The Rendlesham Forest UFO Incident
Did Soldiers Really Encounter A UFO In The UK in 1980?
Case File: Rendlesham Forest Incident
Location: Woodbridge, England
Description: The Rendlesham Forest is a large woodland park in Suffolk, England owned by the Forestry Commission with recreation facilities for walkers, cyclists and campers.
The Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, also known as “Britain’s Roswell” has become famous, or perhaps infamous, in UFO lore.
Sketch with notes by Airman First Class John Burroughs, 81st Security Police Squadron, Security Police Operations, Charley Flight, Bentwaters AFB, U. K., January 2, 1981.
The Rendlesham Forest incident has been dubbed as Britain’s Roswell, which involved a series of strange sightings in December 1980. The event continues to fascinate the UF
conspiracy worlds. Its popularity is not surprising because many witnesses saw clear lights in the sky and not some vague lights that are common today.
Former Ministry of Defence employee Nick Pope believes that the UFO indeed landed.
A security police commander that time, Sgt Adrian Bustinza, said that he saw a UFO going in and out through trees and hovering at one stage.
In an audio recording, United States Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Charles Halt can be heard saying that they’re looking at the thing from two to three hundred yards away. He com
the thing to an eye winking, and the flash is dazzling to the starscope that it nearly burns their eyes.
Just last January 2015, a dog walker posted a video showing unidentified lights above Rendlesham Forest and a new film about it has recently been released. But what actually too
and are we any closer to solving the mystery after 35 years?
Through the years, it appears that facts have become blurry as new witnesses come forward, and statements change. But what is clearly known is that US military personnel statio
the area spotted unusual lights over Rendlesham Forest.
Blue, red, orange and white lights were seen by John Burroughs, one of the US military personnel who investigated the area. In Burroughs’ subsequent statement in 1981, he sa
together with his supervisor and another individual, they saw lights moving back and then stopping in a bunch of trees. As they hit the ground, the lights started moving back towa
open field. All three of them got up to a fence and saw the lights disappeared.
Jim Penniston, who was the companion of Burroughs into Rendlesham Forest on 26 December, claimed he spotted a craft with hieroglyphiclike characters about 3 metres t
approximately 3 metres wide at the base. As he moved closer to the craft, he found out that the fabric of the shell was like a smooth, opaque, black glass.
Both Burroughs and Penniston have since suffered from PostTraumatic Stress Disorder.
A different set of military personnel encountered the same series of events 2 nights later. Lieutenant Colonel Charles was there to disprove UFO, and alien rumours disperse wi
RAF bases Woodbridge and Bentwaters. Armed with a recording device, Halt produced an audio tape that is now considered as one of the most important pieces of evidence

On the night of December 28, another group of men claimed to have witnessed something strange in Rendlesham Forest. Soldier Larry Warren and Sgt Adrian Bustinza, who were
number of other military personnel, went towards the field where lights had been spotted on the past two nights.
At the scene, Warren claimed he had seen disaster preparedness officers with Geiger counters and then a small red light appeared going the direction of the coast. Warren describ
UFO as fast while moving in a downward arc. Warren also said that the UFO made a stop and hovered approximately 20 feet off the ground. He revealed that it was the same
American basketball and selfilluminated by slightly red light.
According to Warren, the red light then exploded suddenly, and a craft showed on the forest floor. Warren described it as no windows, no flag or country of origin, and no markin
shape was clear as a bell, Warren stated.
At this stage, a senior man asked Warren and Bustinza to retreat. Then they claimed to have seen Wing Commander Gordon Williams from a distance approaching the cr
encountering an alien being. Warren described that particular encounter as silent standoff rather than communication.
Warren returned to the base at around 4:30am, but Bustinza claimed to have observed the craft depart. He said that that the craft took off at around a 45degree angle, and he may
saw it if he would have blinked. He heard no noise during that strange activity.
Computer illustration of sketch by John Burroughs of lights in Rendlesham Forest, 3 AM, December 26, 1980.
According to notes in Sgt. Penniston’s notebook shown here and his official written report, he and Airman John Burroughs got to within close distance of a highly strange craft on th
ground.
Sgt. James Penniston's Described “Craft of Unknown Origin”
Staff Sgt. Jim Penniston said “black, shiny, triangleshaped object was 3 meters long by 2 meters high (9.8 feet by 7 feet).”
“Triangular in shape. The top portion is producing mainly white light, which encompasses most of the upper section of the craft.
A small amount of white light is appearing from what appears to be the bottom of the craft.
At the left side is a bluish light.
And on the other side is red light.
The lights seem to be molded as part of the exterior of the structure that seemed to be landed on the forest floor.”
[ Could the mysterious woman in Martin Keitel’s dream from August of 2002 be Kiesha Crowther? And are some crop pictures with a binary code being sent back in time, just as for the time travelers from our future w
visited Rendlesham Forest in December of 1980 and left a binary code?
Are magical technologies such as “time travel” or “messages sent through time” really possible? Can we receive messages from the future in our dreams? Are some crop pictures being sent back in time from the late 2
century, or say from a troubled period just after December of 2012? Will our future descendants on Earth eventually invent the means to travel back into their past (our present), so as to interact with humans of the cu
era?
As a longterm professional scientist with 35 years of practical experience, first at Caltech 19761981, then MRC LMB Cambridge 19821986, and finally CSIRO Australia 19872010, I would tend to answer
those questions, even if such answers might bring me into intellectual conflict my with peers. If those peers were to study UFOs, crop circles and/or psychic phenomena carefully over many years, they might hold
opinions, and then there would be no conflict. This article describes several important updates to our understanding of crop circles and/or UFOs, which not many people in the general public are yet aware of, even
those subjects are very interesting indeed!
During that voyage, will he perhaps send a coded crop picture back in time to August 15, 2002 at Crabwood in southern England, using wormhole technology as Martin suggests? Then will he send a psychic
in time to August 18, 2002 in Finland, to help Martin decode the long ASCII message which he just sent to Crabwood? Quetzal will surely meet the current Mayan leader, Don Alejandro, during his voyage, and will
even meet Kiesha Crowther, who is a friend of Don Alejandro, resident of southwestern north America, and partly of native ancestry. So if Kiesha assists him in sending the dream message back to Martin, everything
be explained quite nicely!
Quetzalcoatl’s goal in sending those two messages back in time, whether the Crabwood crop picture or Martin’s lucid dream, would be to change the past. Things may not have gone well for humans on Earth,
after December of 2012 in our current historical timeline. By sending a coded crop picture back in time to Crabwood 2002, and by sending a lucid psychic message back to Martin a few days later, then having both
messages made public through “interpreters” such as Martin and myself, our current historical timeline on Earth (their past timeline) may somehow be changed.
Many people such as George Lucas, Dan Aykroyd or Mel Gibson will become more aware that December 2012 is certainly not the “end of the world” , since we have already received several messages in crop
dreams from beyond the time barrier:
Those same people will also become aware of an urgent “need for change”. We can’t go on living in the same way as we do now, or else humans on planet Earth will be headed for ecological and/or geological
Quetzalcoatl does not tell us exactly what those disasters might be, or exactly when they will occur, possibly due to an obscure law of physics called the “grandfather paradox” (see Appendix 2). Yet he does tell
words): “Beware of an extraterrestrial grey race, much pain but still time, believe, there is good out there, we oppose deception, spacetime conduit closing”. Likewise the mysterious young woman says:
the Mayans, it is very important”. Will other clues to the events of December 2012 be revealed soon? Let’s certainly hope so!
Some crop pictures have predicted unexpected astronomical events in advance, again consistent with the idea of time travel
If certain crop pictures are really being sent back in time from the near (or distant) future on Earth, then the unknown artists who are making such crop pictures would surely know about unexpected astronomical
our local solar system, which we have not encountered yet. Indeed, we learned in late 2007 that a whole collection of crop pictures from more than two years earlier, namely from the summer of 2005, had accurately
predicted the sudden outburst of Comet 17P Holmes, and its subsequent travel through our skies:
The Hopis in southwestern north America call Comet Holmes their longpredicted “blue star Kachina”. It is supposed to herald the upcoming end of some great period in history. In fact, modern crop pictures
three major “unexpected astronomical events” far in advance of the fact, from the years 1994 to 2007:
The reality of time travel was firmly documented at Rendlesham Forest in December of 1980
So far we have presented a lot of circumstantial evidence for UFOs and time travel. Now we would like to present the real thing: a welldocumented case from RAF Bentwaters in December of 1980, which was witnes
many US servicemen over three successive nights. Linda Howe has been one of the main reporters to research that case . She featured prominently with Jim Penniston and John Burroughs, two of the servicemen, at a
anniversary meeting in Woodbridge Community Hall on December 28, 2010:
Nick Pope was also there, as a former UFO investigator for the UK Ministry of Defence. The original incident involved multiple UFO sightings and at least one UFO landing, in nearby Rendlesham Forest on the
December 26, 27 and 28, 1980:
A small triangular craft was studied for almost one hour on the ground by Jim Penniston and John Burroughs, who made sketches of its details so they would not forget. Quite a few geometrical symbols of unknown
were etched onto one side of that craft, as shown above. Could these be hieroglyphics from the distant future? This Bentwaters UFO 1980 incident clearly involved time travel, as evidenced by transcripts of a
session with Jim Penniston in 1994:
“They have to be out in space to travel. They need speed to travel. To go backwards, they can’t go forward. They go to their past. It’s impossible to go into the future. It takes too much energy. These ships can
thousand years. They can’t go back much further. They might not be able to get back. The farther back it is, the better, the less effect it has on changing the future. They can’t control it (unwanted changes to the futu
too cumbersome.”
“The intelligence agents give me a warning: they tell me that I will hurt the world. It will breach national security and can destroy the system, cause wars, chaos in the streets. That’s why it’s important to keep it qui
First reading of the long binary code which they gave to Jim Penniston by telepathy
Thus as early as 1994, Jim Penniston realized that he had been given a long binary code using telepathy, by the people (or whoever) will live on planet Earth in our distant future. Yet it took him another 16 years to r
the first five pages of that code! Whether the long delay was due to special hypnotic instructions from the visitors, or simply the fact that his close encounter with them had been very traumatic, is hard to say. In eithe
we should be grateful that he has finally come forward now, and we should applaud his courage in the face of what will probably be fierce skepticism from some of more negative members of our current human race.
Mike Reed and I recently helped Linda Howe to decode the first five pages of that binary code in terms of modern English. We found that most (but not all) of the code was written in 8bit ASCII with small “separato
spaces” Thus it appears fairly similar to the coded message which we were shown in crops at Crabwood in 2002 (see time2007n.html or time2007o.html), as well as to several crop circle codes from 2010 (see
www.realitysandwich.com or www.agoranews.org). Could some of those crop circle codes likewise come from our future?
To summarize, Jim Penniston received 13 pages of binary code in total by telepathy in 1980. His first five pages have been released in 2010 for public viewing, and have been accurately decoded. Pages 1 and 2 are s
below:

On page 1, we can read “EXPLORATION OF HUMANITY” in 8bit ASCII. Then we can see three “shift letters to numbers” characters from a 7bit version of ITA2 or Telex. Those control characters are followed by
different sets of numbers in 8bit ASCII which tell: (i) the year and month of their visit, namely (19)81, month 00, (ii) the precise latitude of their visit, namely 52.0942532 degrees North, and (iii) the precise
their visit, namely 1.3131269 degrees West.
Their mission here in December 1980 was to RAF Bentwaters, which lies not far from the small town of Woodbridge in southeast England. If we interpret their longitude value as “East” rather than “West” (maybe
understand our language very well?), then those latitude and longitude coordinates match Woodbridge town centre with a high accuracy of five digits past the decimal place in each case. That is very close to where
Howe, John Burroughs and Jim Penniston just held a 30 th anniversary meeting in Woodbridge Community Hall!
The next part of their binary message on pages 3 to 5 says “CONTINUOUS FOR PLANETARY ADVANCE, FOURTH COORDINATE CONTINUOUS, (unclear) BEFORE” . The term “fourth coordinate” may refer to “t
a fourdimensional space x, y, z, t. This phrase suggests that they are carrying out time travel missions to Earth’s distant past (our present) for the purposes of “planetary advance”. The final part of their message “befo
remains unclear, and will require a decoding of pages 613 to be understood.
This new fivepage binary code seems to confirm what was already suspected about the Bentwaters UFO case from hypnotic sessions in 1994: namely that the visitors are time travelers from our distant future.
video, Jim Penniston describes how he was shown a series of telepathic images which contained a long series of zeros and ones in December of 1980, just after he encountered a small UFO on the ground, and
it for one hour the night before . At the time, he had no idea what a “binary code” might be, or why they showed him a long series of zeros and ones.
Telepathic downloads and crop artisthuman contacts
Experienced crop circle workers such as Stuart Dike or Palden Jenkins will be happy to see the Penniston video, since they have been telling us about telepathic cropartisttohuman contacts for many years now.
wrote for example after he visited the Crabwood crop picture in 2002:
“I felt a persontoperson contact with that being, experiencing a (telepathic) download lasting about 40 minutes. I permitted it, and focused on receiving it. This kind of stuff rattles rationalists, yet for me it was a
surprisingly objective experience. It resembled meeting a person on the other side of a screen, a very different person with a different language and mindset, and a charismatic, highenergy presence. I don't know wha
communicated, but a detailed exchange happened. Afterwards, a classic symptom of a genuine profound experience came up a feeling of privilege, humility and blessing.”
He later added: “One of the things that people who come into interaction with e.t.’s discover is that these beings are capable of direct mindtomind communication” ).
Daniel Pinchbeck in 2003 likewise received a long telepathic communication from an avatar “Quetzalcoatl” when he was in Brazil. :
“Quetzalcoatl Returns: I am an avatar and messenger sent at the end of a kalpa, a world age, to bring a new dispensation for humanity – a new covenant and a new consciousness. The end of time approaches. The
of Quetzalcoatl foreshadows an imminent closing of the cycle, and a completion of the Great Work.”
Later he told the whole story in his famous book, “2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl” .
Two crop circle seasons to go, and a Prophets Conference in Glastonbury during July of 2011: Kiesha and Daniel
So where does that leave us? Psychic messages sent back in time, crop circles sent back in time, a welldocumented case of time travel from England 1980, and telepathic downloads from extraterrestrials to
those subjects are all the domain of science fiction, and not what any ordinary person would take seriously, no less a professional scientist?
Well, actually, no. Everything described above is factual and truthful. The mainstream newspapers and TV refuse to tell the public about such exciting conceptual developments, for reasons of their own which remai
unclear. By any standards, our mainstream news media are now heavily censored, so that most people do not know what is really going on: whether in human politics (Wikileaks) or in extraterrestrial developments (
circles and UFOs).
Appendix 2. Time travel, crop circles and the “grandfather paradox”
Many people wonder why the messages given to us in crop pictures seem so vague. Why don’t they tell us directly what they are trying to say, in plain English so that everyone can understand? Why not carve out
crop pictures all at once in nearby fields, and have them convey a long message in English that can be spread rapidly across the world with unambiguous meaning?
Well, it doesn’t seem to work that way. More typically, the messages given to us in crop pictures are often vague, cryptic or hard to understand. Indeed, if some crop pictures are being sent back in time from
distant future), that makes perfect sense, according to an obscure law of physics called the “grandfather paradox” which hardly anyone knows about.
Sciencefiction author Gregory Benford first popularized the concept of a “grandfather paradox” in his 1980 novel “Timescape”. In that book, a small group of scientists, based mainly at the University of Cambridge
that their world is being ravaged by ecological disasters in the year 1998. Even the oceans are dying. So they get together and send a tachyon beam out into space, to where planet Earth would have been located
1962:
A junior professor in San Diego then picks up those strange pulses on his solidstate NMR machine in 1962, not knowing what to make of them. They seem to be written in Morse code, but with a lot of errors. Can
colleagues about those strange messages, or will they just laugh at him, and fire him from his job? What kind of “scientific research” is that anyway?
I will leave it to the reader to find out what happens next, but the point here is that those physicists from 1998 intentionally jumbled their messages, and made them hard to understand, so that other scientists in 196
have enough information to begin solving the ecological crisis, but not so much information that the crisis would be solved completely. In which case by the year 1998, sending such a message back into the past wo
have been necessary, and so it never could have happened!
That is the “grandfather paradox” from modern temporal physics. Could this be why the messages given in crop pictures are so vague? And could this be why the mysterious young woman from Martin’s dream tells
vaguely: “You must listen to the Mayans, it is very important” without telling us precisely what we should be listening to?
If Kiesha Crowther is truly that mysterious young woman (see above), then she told us recently: “The Mayan people, the only people who have lived through a pole shift, have only started talking a few months ago.
they are saying do not have fear, rejoice inside of your hearts. Grandfather Alejandro, the grandfather of all Mayan people, says that the very walls we see falling around us, are only the walls that kept us in prison
Many people have begun to criticize Kiesha lately (just like they criticize Red Collie) because they are jealous, not pure of spirit, or do not fully understand. Just look for example at the many crop circle “skeptics”,
keep telling everyone that all crop pictures have been made with rope and boards! Presumably also the ones written about in Nature 1880? Yet I believe there may be something to what Kiesha has to say. Why else
she (or someone who looks just like her) appear in a lucid dream to Martin Keitel concerning Crabwood of 2002, along with Quetzalcoatl the Feathered Serpent? In my opinion, we should listen with an open
she and the current Mayan leader, Don Alejandro, have to say as we approach December of 2012, now with less than two years to go.
Appendix 3. An update from Linda Howe on the 1980 Rendlesham Forest case: beams of light, columns of light, or bright lights that precede alienhuman contact
Many crop circle researchers have spoken about beams of light or columns of light that come suddenly down from the sky to splash out some new crop picture, or to provide a psychic message to someone on the gro
Several researchers have told about “psychic messages from the future” which were received in that way. Here is an important update to the 1980 Rendlesham Forest case, in which Jim Penniston tells Linda Howe ho
bright light commenced and then ended his telepathic receipt of a long binary code from a landed UFO. His story has been condensed here for brevity, but may be accessed in full from the website listed below.
“We were within ten or fifteen feet of the craft. When I approached it, the physical air and surroundings changed, like for a feeling of electricity. Everything ran in slow motion. The fabric of the craft was very smoo
for black glass. Its symbols were three feet long and a only few inches high. I started touching them. They were rough like sandpaper. On touching those symbols, there was a bright light and I couldn't see! I just saw
zeros and ones in my mind. The numbers were coming at me fast. Then I saw that bright light again, and the coding stopped.
I went back home to get some sleep, but remained awake, because I couldn't get those zeros and ones out of my mind. They kept repeating. So I said to myself, ‘Maybe it will help to write them down?’ I flipped open
pages of my notebook, and started writing those numbers down. All of a sudden they stopped! I didn't have those symbols (zeros and ones) running through my head anymore”
Interestingly enough, the transcript of a hypnotic session with Jim Penniston in 1994 suggested that the general purpose of their binary code was to “explain mission purpose”, and also to help them as time travelers
contact with humans living today on Earth. So far in 2011, only the first five pages of that code (out of 13) have been released for analysis. Yet those first five pages do seem to “explain mission purpose”:
Those first five pages also give timeandspace coordinates (subject to a few ambiguities) close to the start of a new year 1981 near Woodbridge, England, where they landed on three successive nights from Decembe
28, 1980. In fact, the numerical coordinates from Jim Penniston’s 1980 binary code match the town centre of Woodbridge, England to six fractional digits past each decimal point!
Geez, the whole thing looks real! Could this really be an H.G. Wells type of message, from people who live in our distant future on Earth? And could certain crop pictures, or crop artisthuman contacts, also come fro
near or distant future? Might there be humans living on Earth today who are in regular telepathic contact with those crop artists, and who might know beforehand which field pictures they plan to make in the summe
2011, when and where? These are interesting subjects to which we may soon return, as new crop pictures begin to appear.

The KellyHopkinsville Case: An Overview
August 21 22, 1955
The scene was a small farm outside of the Kentucky town of Kelly. Inside the farmhouse were eight adults and three children. The night was dark, clear, and hot. At about 7 PM, Bi
Taylor (a friend of the Suttons and owner of the farmhouse) came in from the well with the "wild story's that he had seen a really bright "flying saucer," with an exhaust all the color
the rainbow, fly across the sky and drop into a fortyfoot gully near the edge of their property. However, the Suttons did not take him seriously and laughed the story off as an
embellishment of his seeing a "falling star."

Half an hour later the family dog began barking violently and eventually put its tail between its legs and hid under the house. The two men, Billy Ray Taylor and Lucky Sutton, wen
back door to see what was bothering the dog and noticed a strange glow approaching the farmhouse from the fields. When the light came nearer, they resolved what caused it: a glow
threeandahalffoot tall creature with a round, oversized head. The eyes were large and glowed with a yellowish light; the arms were long, extended nearly to the ground,
large hands with talons. The entire creature seemed made of silver metal. As the creature approached, its hands were raised over its head as if it were being held up.
Understandably startled, the two men reacted by grabbing their guns: a 20gauge shotgun and a .22 rifle. Withdrawing slightly into the house, the men waited until the creature was
twenty feet of the back door and then fired; the entity flipped over backward and then scurried off into the darkness. After a few minutes, when it did not reappear, they returned to t
living room only to see another (or the same) creature at a side window. They fired through the window screen at it, and again the creature flipped and disappeared. Sure that they ha
and disabled the creature, the two men went outside to find the body. As they started out the front door Billy Ray, who was in the lead, paused for a moment underneath an overhang
roof. Just as he was about to step into the yard, those in the hallway behind him saw one of the creatures on the roof reach down a taloned hand and touch his hair from above. The p
indoors screamed and pulled him back inside. Lucky Sutton rushed out into the yard, turned and fired pointblank at the creature, knocking it off the roof. There was another creature
maple tree closeby. Both Lucky and Billy Ray fired at this one and knocked it off the limb; it floated to the ground and then ran off quickly into the darkness. Immediately, another
(or perhaps the one that had been knocked off the roof) came around the side of the house almost directly in front of the group. Lucky fired his shotgun at pointblank range and the
was the same: no effect. A sound was heard as the bullets struck, as if a metal bucket lead been hit, but the creature scurried off unhurt.
Understandably concerned that their guns were apparently useless, the men returned to the house to join the frightened women and children.
The creatures generally moved in a peculiar fashion. The legs appeared to be inflexible and when they ran, movement was accomplished almost totally by "hip motions." Usually to
erect, when they ran off they bent over and moved with long arms almost touching the ground. The entities' ability to float was particularly evident when one was knocked off the ki
roof and floated a distance of about forty feet to a fence, where it was knocked off again by a shot. While they did not appear to have an aura of luminescence, their "skin" glowed in
dark with the glow becoming brighter when they were shot at or shouted at.
Mrs. Lankford, the mother of the family, counseled an end to the hostilities. Despite the fact that they had been shot at a number of times, no aggressive action was ever proffered by
creatures. However, the children were becoming hysterical and the creatures kept returning to peer in the windows at intervals; by 11 PM the family's patience had worn thin and the
got into two automobiles and headed at top speed to the nearby Hopkinsville police department
After a half hour's travel time, the police arrived back at the farmhouse with the stillfrightened family. The Hopkinsville police, the state police, and a staff photographer arrived to
investigate the situation. A thorough search was made of the house, the yard, and the outbuildings. Nothing was found, and the tension ran high: When someone accidentally steppe
cat's tail and it yowled, "you never saw so many pistols unholstered so fast in your life!" The searchers checked out the woods area but found nothing. One unusual item that was fou
was a luminous patch where one of the creatures had been knocked off and fallen to the ground. However, when nothing really extraordinary appeared, the searchers began to leave
2:15 AM., the Sutton family was alone.
The family had been reassured enough to go to bed and shut off the few lights. Mrs. Lankford was lying in bed watching the window when she noticed a weird glow; the glow was o
the creatures staring inward with its hands on the window screen. Calling quietly to the rest of the family, she remained perfectly calm. Lucky Sutton, however, grabbed his gun and
shot at the creature through the screen. No effect. The creatures continued to make their appearance throughout the rest of the night, never doing anything overtly hostile and only se
to show curiosity. The last creature was seen at half an hour before sunrise, at about 5:15 AM
The next morning, investigators came back to search the farmlands during the daytime. Nothing was found even though some even climbed to the roof of the house to look for footp
The press got hold of the story; besides the reporter who had accompanied the police out during the night, the local radio station and many reporters from other papers in Kentucky,
Indiana, and Tennessee arrived at the Sutton house. As the news spread, the general public began to show up and cars were backed up for a considerable distance down the road from
Sutton farmhouse. Sightseers stopped their cars, walked through the property, in and out of the house, annoyed the family with requests for pictures and, in general, created a carniv
atmosphere the upshot of which was to generally ridicule the family for having seen "little green men from space."
However, on that same morning, Andrew Ledwith, an engineer with the local radio station, decided to stop into the station for a talk with the chief engineer (it was Ledwith's day of
learned of the happenings at the Sutton farm the night before and because of his interest in UFOs and his previous experience as an artist, he decided to go out and interview the
is fortunate that he did. The publicity became so obnoxious to the Sutton family that they later simply avoided telling the story and refused to cooperate (one notable exception was
Isabel Davis, who prepared the Kelly report for CUFOS). The drawings that Mr. Ledwith created on the afternoon following the sighting are illustrated above.
How can such a tale be accepted at face value? one asks. After all, the family itself was considered of "low social status" by the townspeople. Two of the men had worked for a carn
could be argued that they were familiar with the art of the trickster.
The most telling criticism of the incident, however, is that there is absolutely no physical evidence whatsoever that the incident actually occurred. Skeptics point out that no footprin
were found (the ground was extremely hard), no marks were on the roof (although the creatures seemed nearly weightless and may not have left marks), there was no blood on then,
bullets did no apparent damage), et cetera. One could thus conclude that the family "faked" the entire incident.
However, investigators who interviewed the Suttons afterward painted a picture of them that is quite different from the sort of people who could fabricate an elaborate hoax: They w
uneducated, simple farm folk with no apparent interest in exploiting the rather considerable publicity that they engendered.
Did "creatures" really visit the farmhouse in Kentucky on that night of August 21, 1955? Or did the many witnesses, mostly adults, excite themselves to the point of exaggerating so
lesser stimulus? The Kelly/Hopkinsville case still stands as one of the more provocative CE III events to date. Allan Hendry, CUFOS

became aware of two smaller spheres which emerged from close to the larger and rolled quickly towards him. They may have been around 3 ft in diameter, and had spikes around
which touched the grass with a sucking or plopping noise. When they reached him, each sphere attached itself to his trousers just below the pockets and he felt himself being
towards the larger object. His Wellington boots were dragging on the ground as he tried to resist the pull, and he was being overcome by an acrid choking smell. He lost consciousn

NIGHTMARE CREATURES TORRIGLIA, GENOVA (ITALY) DECEMBER 6, 1974 78 ?
A guard, Zanfretta Fortunato, was the subject of an abduction by giant beings who seemed to have escaped from a terrifying nightmare.
At his solitary job, Zanfretta was surprised by several creatures described as more than three meters tall, with yellowgreen, triangular bright eyes.
Their faces was filled with sharp spines instead of hair; they had no ears, Fortunato noted they also had horns. And in the middle of their foreheads, they had a third, very bright eye
Fortunato Zanfretta’s abduction story has become one of the most famous urban legends in Italy over the last few decades.Zanfretta has probably given more details about his alien abduction than any
person in history; his detailed accounts may cause even the most vehement skeptic to pause for thought. To this day, the Zanfretta case remains one of the most curious and fascinating ‘xfiles’ around t
world.
According to his own accounts (originally made while under hypnosis), Zanfretta was abducted by aliens called Dragos from the planet Teetonia, and experienced repeated abductions by the same group
period of several years (19781981). As frightening or creepy as this case might sound, it seems like we can paint a more optimistic picture of the intentions of these visitors when we consider the words
Zanfretta during one hypnosis section:
“I know you are trying to come more frequently . . . no, you can’t come to Earth, people get scared if they look at you. You can’t make friendship. Please go.”
Shortly after midnight on December 6, 1978, Zanfretta was on duty in Torriglia, a village near Genoa. It was a dark and moonless night. It was also very cold and snow had fallen during the day so that
was a dangerous film of ice on the roads. As Zanfretta approached a client's uninhabited countryhouse (called "Our Home" by the owner, Dr. Ettore Righi), in the area of Marzano, his patrol car, a Fiat
mysteriously stopped dead. The car engine, lights and radio all failed seemingly for no reason. At the same moment he saw four strange lights moving about in the garden of the house and stepped outs
his car to investigate with gun and flashlight in hand. At first he thought that burglars were behind the house. So he walked through the open gate and crept along a wall in an attempt to surprise them.
Zanfretta had underestimated the problem and ended being the one who was surprised by what he had taken for thieves. Feeling himself touched from behind, the security guard whirled around and saw
something that filled him with terror: only inches away stood what he called: "An enormous green, ugly and frightful creature, with undulating skin, no less than ten feet tall".
When he directed the beam of his flashlight on the being's face, he was so frightened that he dropped it, but quickly it up again and run away. While running, he became aware of a large and very brigh
behind him. Turning around, he saw a huge, flat triangular form which was blinding in its brilliance. Zanfretta shielded himself from the light with his arm. This thing which he assured was a flying sauce
ascended from the back of the house. It was bigger than the house itself, and produced a hissing sound. Later, Zanfretta said that he felt an intense heat. He made it back to his car and tried to call his s
company's operations center in Genoa. It was 12:15 A.M. Carlo Toccalino, the radio operator, has testified that Zanfretta was speaking in an excited and disconnected way. He kept saying: "My
ugly!". The operator then asked if "they" were human and if they were assaulting him.
The answer was: "No, they aren't men, they aren't men". At that point, the communication were abruptly broken Zanfretta surprised by aliensoff and Toccalino called the chief of the security service, Lt.
Giovanni Cassiba. An hour later, a couple of other patrol guards, Walter Lauria and Raimondo Mascia, found Zanfretta in front of the countryhouse, lying on the ground. It was 1:15 A.M.. When he saw
he jumped up, gun and flashlight at the ready. Eyes bulging, Zanfretta didn't seem to recognize them, nor to understand when they told him to lower his weapon. The other patrolmen rushed and disarm
To their surprise, his clothes felt warm even though the December night air was quite cold. They also noticed that the gate was closed as usual. The Carabinieri, the Italian military police, began an
investigation on what happened that night and one of the first thing they discovered were clear imprint that some large and heavy object had left on the ground in back of the countryhouse. There were
them in the frost covered grass, 9 feet in diameter and shaped like horseshoes. Antonio Nucchi, the commandant of the Torriglia station, has stated that he was every confidence in the testimony given b
Zanfretta.
In fact, he has known the security guard for many years and, when I asked him what he thought about him, he answered: "I can state with certainty that he is a clear thinking man with no strange fanta
his head. When we went to investigate the scene the next day, he almost didn't want to come, he was so scared. Only something exceptional could have frightened him so." During the investigation Nucc
discovered that 52 residents of nearby Torriglia saw a bright glare in the direction of the countryhouse at the same time Zanfretta reported seeing it ascending. When the strange story of Zanfretta was
published in the local newspapers, the articles were all tinged with amused curiosity and skepticism. Most journalists didn't want to examine the incident too closely because it involved a UFO.
But nobody has been able to give any explanations to three fundamental phenomena:
1) Zanfretta's inexplicable panic and confusion;
2) the two 9 foot circular impressions in the grass behind the countryhouse;
3) the sighting by the 52 people in Torriglia.
The prevalent opinion about Zanfretta just after the incident was: "Since he says that he saw a flying saucer and a monstrous extraterrestrial being, he must be crazy." Many people thought that the Car
were wasting their time. As for myself I asked is it possible that a security guard who was the father of two children and had a reputation for honesty could have invented a story like this, and thus know
put himself at the risk of being dismissed from his job? And is it also possible that it was mere luck that 52 people were able to provide an indirect confirmation of his story? My answer was "no" to both
questions and that's why I decided to investigate Zanfretta's story further. Zanfretta under aliens' examinationGianfranco Tutti, the director of the Institute of Vigilance Val Bisagno, the security
Zanfretta worked for, was worried about the possible negative publicity. But he believes that the guard was an honest man.

When I met Zanfretta, I got the impression that he was shy and he felt uneasy. "People call me on the phone at all hours just to play jokes on me", he said, "I don't know what it was that I saw, but I s
am not a liar". In another attempt to uncover the actual events of that night, according to the Institute Val Bisagno, Zanfretta agreed to be hypnotized by Dr. Mauro Moretti, a psychotherapist and memb
the Italian Association of Medical Hypnosis, in Genoa on December 23. I was present on that occasion and noted that what he had to say was really astonishing. In fact, Zanfretta said that he was abdu
"monsters about 10 feet tall, with hairy green skin, yellow triangular eyes and red veins across the forehead" who brought him to a hot, luminous place where they interrogated and examined him. Durin
same session, Zanfretta also indicated that the creatures came from the "third galaxy" and that "they want to talk with us and that they will soon return in larger numbers."
The aliens did not speak Italian to the guard, but used a "luminous device" to translate what they were saying. What Zanfretta was stating under hypnosis was too unbelievable, so I preferred not to wr
anything down at that time. But then something else happened. Three nights later, on December 26, the guard disappeared again. At 11:45 PM on that night, Zanfretta was at work as usual, driving a F
inside the Bargagli tunnel, near the Scoffera Pass. Suddenly he lost control of the car. On the radio, he reported that the Fiat turned on its own and came out of the tunnel. Terrified, Zanfretta tried to w
brakes and steering wheel, but the car continued on its own along the steep road uphill. Speaking with the radio operator, the guard said that he was having difficulty with the patrol car, and couldn't se
because of the very thick fog.
After going for about a mile, the car finally come to an abrupt stop, throwing Zanfretta's head against the steering wheel. He called the radio operator and this time, in a very controlled voice, said: "The
stopped. I saw a bright light. Now I am getting out." Zanfretta and his car were found at 1:10 AM by other guards. The first to see Zanfretta was sergeant Emanuele Travenzoli. Zanfretta was in a field
road. His clothes were warm and dry, and so was his head, despite the rain. The man was very scared, he was shaking and crying. "They say I must leave with them. What about my children? I don't w
I don't want to...". Again the Carabinieri were called. During their investigation they found that, though the car had been in the cold and rain for a long time, the roof of the Fiat was as hot as if it had sp
entire day in the sun. The interior of the car was also said to be as hot as an oven. All around the car were disproportionately large footprints.
As measured by the Carabinieri, the tracks proved were 20 inches long by 8 inches wide, with a distinct empty spot between sole and heel. In addition, the Carabinieri found that Zanfretta's gun, a Smith
Wesson 38 Special, had been fired five times. But theProf. Rolando Marchesan during the hypnotic treatment with Pentotal on Zanfretta guard couldn't recall at whom he had fired the weapon. All this da
been enclosed in the "Report on the Sighting of Unidentified Flying Objects by Fortunato Zanfretta" sent by commandant Nucchi on January 3, 1979 to the magistratès court in Genoa in an inquiry for wha
should be taken. The report ended up on the table of Luciano Di Noto, a substitute attorney of the Italian Republic, who passed it on to Investigating Magistrate, Gian Rodolfo Sciaccaluga. Finally,
report was delivered to Magistrate Russo who, one year later, on January 11, 1980, he certified that it could be filled away whit this declaration: "No crime committed". In addition, the Carabinieri's Com
had informed the Italian Department of Interior and other military commands of the incident by two telexes sent respectively on December 8, and December 28, 1978.
The Carabinieri defined the degree of reliability that the eventsactually occurred as "good". One must also point out that in December 1978, there were so many UFO sighting all over Italy that Falco Acc
that time a Socialist member of the Italian Parliament, asked both Italy's Premier, Giulio Andreotti, and Minister of Defense, Attilio Ruffini, to inform the Italian Congress about their opinion concerning th
nature of these recent UFO sighting in Italy. Getting back to Zanfretta, this second "encounter" had aroused much publicity. Once again, in an attempt to get at the facts, a second hypnotic regression wa
arranged with Dr. Moretti. But this time the regression was recorded and broadcast by a local TV station, TVS, and hundreds of thousands of people watched it. And this time, of course, I had
article. In a few days, Zanfretta became a popular personality. But many people who didn't believe in UFO stories, were going around saying that his mental health was probably not very good. Zanfretta
problems even at work.
"If I could have, I wouldn't have reported my experiences, now that I see the consequences", he said. In an attempt to end any further disturbing discussions of the incidents, the Institute Val Bisagno a
Giorgio Gianniotti, a prominent neurologist at San Martino Hospital in Genoa, to examine Zanfretta. "The man is in a state of shock", Dr. Gianniotti diagnosed, "but he is perfectly sane". Dr. Gianniotti's d
made the guard seem much more credible in the eyes of public opinion. But the Zanfretta story was now reaching audiences outside of Genoa. Enzo Tortora, in those years a very popular Italian TV per
invited the guard on his national TV program "Portobello." Zanfretta was also examined while on camera by Dr. Cesare Musatti, a famous psychoanalyst called "the father of the Italian psychoanalysis". O
occasion, Musatti said that Zanfretta spoke in good faith even if it was hard to differentiate objective facts from subjective experiences. At the same time, articles about the guard began to appear in
newspapers and magazines all over the world. He now became known as the man who was abducted by a UFO.
For some months nothing strange happened to Zanfretta. I kept thinking that his story must have a logical explanation. What reason, if the UFO was real, did it have for abducting that man twice? What
role did Zanfretta's gun with exploded cartridgecasesZanfretta play? I didn't have any answers. And I was still questioning myself like this, when Zanfretta was abducted a third time. It was on the night
30, 1979. The guard was on duty, this time on a motorcycle, in the residential area of Quarto in Genoa and not in the hills nearby Torriglia. But he disappeared again as before and some other guards fo
him after two hours on the top of Mount Fasce, also near Genoa. There is only one road up to that hill and it was patrolled by security guards working for the same company as Zanfretta. They said that
Zanfretta had not been seen on that small road. But there he was at the top of the hill. How did he get up there? The only way to find out more was trough hypnosis. But this time Zanfretta was taken to
International Center of Medical and Psychological Hypnosis in Milan where, on his own request, he was injected with a truth serum by Prof. Marco Marchesan. Zanfretta confirmed everything he has said
and he explained that the last time "he was lifted from the ground into to the alien spaceship by a mysterious green light". Professor Marchesan declared: "No human being can knowingly lie while he is
Pentothal treatment, so I think it's very probable Zanfretta had these encounters". But Zanfretta's adventure was not an end, yet. Perhaps the most exciting of his strange encounters occurred a
later. At 10:30 PM on Sunday, December 2, 1979 Zanfretta disappeared for the fourth time while driving an Austin Mini in the suburbs of Genoa. While looking for him, four patrol guards clearly saw a ve
large UFO in the sky. It was over the hills above Genoa.
Suddenly from out of a large cloud above the guards, two lights came on and shown down directly on the four men. The engines of their cars stopped dead and they got out of their vehicles, terrified. On
of them, Lt. Cassiba, reacted and fired his gun at the UFO. The lights turned off and the cloud moved away. One of those guards was so shocked that he never completely recovered his mental stability.
months later he killed himself with a bullet in the head. His name was Germano Zanardi, so the Zanfretta case has also a victim. In yet another hypnotic regression, made on Monday, December
Dr. Moretti, Zanfretta said many interesting things. This account begins around 9:30 PM. The guard was in a selfservice gasoline station on a highway near downtown Genoa. Zanfretta heard someone
him from a shadow and he walked towards the voice. He said that he was helpless to resist that voice. And when the owner of that voice ordered him to drive into a small cloud, he obeyed. Then, and th
the most incredible part, he was Carabinieri, the Italian military police, investigate on a place of UFO sightingwhisked off in the cloud to a large spaceship.
Zanfretta described the man who gave him the orders as being a bit taller than himself, with a bald eggshaped head and dressed in a checkered suit that included something made of steel in place of a
Walking around with the giant aliens in that huge craft, the guard said he saw transparent cylinders filled with a strange blue liquid. One contained a frogshaped body that the aliens called "an enemy of
from another planet". In two more were preserved a big bird and another human looking body that Zanfretta described as looking like a caveman. As you can see, all this sounds very imaginary. But som
else occurred during that hypnotic regression which was quite astonishing. At a certain point, Zanfretta uttered these words: "Where have you been? And what do you want to do in Spain? Why? But all
together? That will scare people!". The next day on the morning of Tuesday, December 4, the international service of the Italian press agency ANSA carried a newsitem about a Spanish dentist, Dr. Alfr
Sanchez Cuesta who, on the Saturday night just pass, was driving in Guadalaiara, about nine miles from Madrid, when he saw a very brilliant UFO which followed his car for about an hour. The UFO wa
feet above the car and Dr. Cuesta, terrified and blinded by the UFO, lost control of his car and went off the road.
Was this a coincidence? And why, if Zanfretta's story recounted under hypnosis is imaginary, did the guard mention Spain? And what about the coincidence in the dates? Zanfretta said he was abducted b
aliens on Sunday night and gave his account under hypnosis on Monday evening. Dr. Cuesta's adventure occurred on Saturday night. Before Tuesday no one in Italy knew about Dr. Cuesta, and it was on
Wednesday that the Italian public was finally informed. I'll let you make what you will of these facts.Time went by and left many more questions without answers. First of all, why all these abductions? W
reason did all those discussions between the guard and the aliens have? Perhaps an explanation may be found in an object that the mysterious beings wanted to give to the man. It was a transparent sp
with a pyramid inside. Something like jumping sparks were discharged from the pyramid's vertices toward the inside. With that sphere, the aliens said, it was possible to understand who they were and
they live. Under hypnosis, Zanfretta said that he didn't want to take the object: he had had enough of all these strange encounters and wished only go back to his normal life.
But they insisted, and told him that he was to give the sphere to a man of whom name he had never heard before: Dr. J. Allen Hynek Don't ask me what kind of relation there was between the Zanfretta
aliens and Dr.Hynek, because I really don't know. Zanfretta with other security guards on a place of UFO sightingAnyway, you maybe surprised that wève still not finished yet! Zanfretta disappeared aga

snaua...si naila...isne ghe...il se lai...go ghe ti snau exi ghe...sci nis che ixi kai snoue...chisnauag the...aiex piscinau kep na...tei sdei...".Moretti was not able to control the hypnotic regression. Zanfretta
continued on his own and he said that he was contacting the aliens.
His voice changed and in a very guttural way he said: "You can't work out anything in a case like this. To believe or not to believe doesn't mean anything: each thing in its own time".Zanfretta's last
disappearance was on August 13, 1980. But this time, Zanfretta wasunder close observation 24 hours a day and he was reached before he made contact with the aliens.The last hypnotic regression was
illuminating. The guard was absolutely out of control and didn't answer any questions at all. "What is happening here is scientifically inexplicable to me", said Dr. Moretti. Under interrogation, Zanfretta k

He has Location of the UFO sighting not been abducted any more and very few UFO are seen now in the Italian sky. Zanfretta, who recalls only a few things of his extraordinary experiences, says that
somewhere in the hills near Genoa he is hiding the sphere given to him by the aliens. And he waits.

Background
By Martin Jasek, M.Sc., P. Eng. (Investigator)
I first met Kevin on July 8, 2000 while attending a UFO conference in St. Paul, Alberta. I had just finished a presentation on Yukon UFO sightings when he approached me. He was
quiet and reserved and basically told me that he used to live in Ross River, Yukon and had heard and seen strange things up there. He proceeded to write down his contact informatio
me as the hustle and bustle of the conference prevented a personal conversation. The next day, as the conference was drawing to a close, Kevin approached me again. He said he wa
leaving now as he had a fairly lengthy drive home. But before he left, he wanted to show me something so that I would know what he was talking about when we later talked on the
phone. He then showed me the palms of his hands. Wow, what he showed me certainly peaked my interest and he briefly stated some of the background. I'll leave it to the reader to
through "Kevin's Account" as not to take away from the incredible experience.
After the conference I returned to my home in Whitehorse and Kevin returned to his life in a small Alberta town. It was fortunate that with my work I was able to travel to many par
the Yukon and at my earliest opportunity (Sept 12, 2000), I traveled up the North Canol Road. Prior to the trip, Kevin provided a detailed description of the location where his exper
took place and narrowed it down to a 6 km stretch of road, west of a vacant RCMP trailer. I took photographs of five locations along this stretch that would potentially match Kevin
description. There was one location in particular that matched every detail very well. I mailed all sets of five location photos to him and he quickly replied that one location, the sam
that I favoured, was the correct one. There "is no doubt in his mind" he replied. He added information to the photos such as the trajectory of the UFO, the location where the aliens s
etc. The graphics depicting what Kevin witnessed are of the actual locations. We hope that these along with the artwork add to the realism of Kevin's account.
This article has been a long time in the making and I have got to know Kevin over the years. He is a very honest, sincere and reserved individual. Not at all the type looking for atten
have no reason not to believe his entire story. I would like to thank him for his patience and understanding for the time it took me to put this presentation together.
I would also like to thank Gord Heath, Paddy D. and Jim G. for their help with the artwork and illustration graphics.
Kevin's Account
In August or September 1987 (later determined to be Wednesday September 2, 1987), I left Ross River (where I lived) and headed up the North Canol Road by myself on my motor
for moose (hunting). (Maps of the area)
I was planning on spending 3 days in the area between Sheldon Lake and Macpass. A guy I worked with and a friend of his were to leave a day later and I was to meet them for som
fishing. We were all to stay at a trailer at Dewhurst Creek.
I left Ross River early in the morning and the temperature started to drop. Then it started to rain very hard and very cold. When I got to Gravel Creek, I stopped at Art John's Cabin
on extra clothes while standing under the edge of his roof. I knew the rain would not stop, so I got back on my bike and headed off.
I arrived at the trailer ½ hour before dark, very cold and very tired. I lit up a fire, cooked supper and went straight to bed looking forward to the morning hunt. Over night the rain ha
stopped.
At daybreak (September 3, 1987) I put my gear and my gun on my bike and headed towards Macpass. A couple of miles down the road, I was putting along at about 10 mph looking
the trees and watching the hillsides. I decided to stop for a pee.
I stopped where I could see some mountainsides and some valleys. I parked on the right side of the road. The sun was shining; the air was perfectly still and a bit cool.
I was standing just in front of my bike watching the mountains to the south, when I noticed to the left out of the corner of my eye, what I first thought was an airplane. It was 400 to
yards away and about the size of a DC3 plane or a fullsize school bus.
It was travelling north to south, at about 40 yards above ground and moving maybe 30 km/h. Right away I thought "boy is he low". I blinked my eyes because I couldn't make out an
fin or wings.
It had what looked like portholes all along the side of it. It was cigar shaped with a grey strip down the middle and a dark green on top and bottom.
I thought to myself, "something's wrong with this picture", then I realised there was no sound! If it was an airplane, the roar would have filled the valley.
As I watched, it seemed to partially dematerialize and then return to solid form, it did this as it was moving, a couple of times. Then it dawned on me, oh, oh, I don't think I should b
seeing this; it's a UFO and probably doesn't want to be seen!
I crouched down on the road, hiding behind the roadside grass.
I then watched it go behind a coneshaped hill and not come out. I stood up looking for it and feeling very excited and happy about what I saw and thinking they didn't even know th
were being watched.
I was standing beside my bike when I heard a loud metallic clunk behind me around the corner.
Right away I thought, somebody must be here and I've got to tell them what I saw. The noise I heard sounded like a heavy trunk lid on a car slamming shut.
I quickly walked along the edge of the road to the corner to see who was there.
I came face to face (about 20 yards) with 2 grey creatures in blue jump suits, about 5 ft. tall with big insect looking heads, pointy faces, big eyes, thin arms, body and legs. I immedi
thought "they're not little green men*, they're grasshopper people".
*(before this, all I knew about aliens was that they were supposed to be little green men.)
At that same instant, the one on the left raised his left hand to his waist, which held some type of flashlight device and I saw a bright flash of light come from it.
I instantly felt paralyzed and was convinced time had stopped, everything was black, no sound. I tried to yell "No!" but all that came out was a distorted grunt.
Next thing I knew I was standing on the side of the road scared, shaking and confused.
Within seconds I remembered all of this that had just taken place and I thought, "I'm getting out of here before they get me again." I turned around to get my bike and for some reaso
was not there, then I noticed it was on the other side of the road. I said to myself, "what the hell is this? I didn't put it there". Still panicking I rushed over and got on it and realized t
keys were gone.
I always left the keys in it, that way I could not lose them while sneaking around in the bush. I immediately started looking down the road and suddenly saw them in my hand. I star
bike and raced back to the trailer.
I was feeling scared and amazed at the same time and then noticed that all the shadows of the trees were pointing in a different direction than that of the morning sun. About 15 min
later I was at the trailer. Half an hour later it was dark. I thought "no way, I only left here an hour ago, what's going on?"
I was really confused then, I said to myself, "I'm not telling anybody about this, I'll just forget the whole thing".
I put on a pot of coffee and could then hear a soft humming sound above the trailer. I could also feel a soft vibration in everything (trailer, air, etc.). After about 10 minutes it had all
stopped. I had a very strong feeling that they were outside. I did not look out the windows.
Later that night I still couldn't sleep and while having my coffee I began to have flashbacks of the past events. I remember being in a dreamlike state watching scenery flash by
underneath as if I was flying. I watched mountains and rivers and forests go by at a very high rate of speed.
I then became aware of other sounds and seemed to wake up. I opened my eyes and could see nothing but black, very deep and inky black. As I was looking at this, the blackness pu
back, revealing a face, I had been looking into the eyes of a grey type creature. I could hear in my mind a voice saying "there is nothing to worry about". I could hear him talking in
mind.
There were 3 or 4 of these types walking around, but only one talked to me. The two I saw earlier on the road, I never saw again. (Note: the aliens that he saw at this point were of th
typical "grey type" while the ones at the edge of the road were more insectoid.)
I then sat up and had an idea of what might be going on and I asked, "Are you going to do experiments on me?" and the one said, "They've already been done." I felt really good the
because, except for a strange sensation in my hands everything felt normal. I kept rubbing my hands together but did not look at them, as there was a totally strange environment to
instead. I experienced no discomfort.
The being nearest me asked if I would like to see my home planet and I said sure. I then walked over to the window, where there was a machine that looked like a big copy machine
asked me not to touch it, I replied "Don't worry, I'm not touching anything in here".
He then said, that bright white star is your home. I didn't know anything about astronomy at the time, but I always thought earth was blue, so right away I thought he's lying. He also
explained to me about space and stars etc. but I can't remember any of it now.
I was also asked if I would like to go on a trip. I replied "Not yet", I felt very honoured to be asked and I did want to go, but felt that the time was not right.
Then I was told I would have to forget all of this. I was disappointed at hearing this. The first part of the experience was very scary, but once I was with them, I found them to be frie
helpful and their looks didn't bother me. They actually seemed like old friends.
They gave me a clear glass, ¾ full with a yellow liquid and said to drink it up, it would make me forget everything. I told them, I did not want to forget an experience like this. It sho
remembered! I was told it was for my own good that I forget. So I took 3 little sips and put the glass down.
Next thing I know, I'm on the road by my bike, scared to death and wanting to get out of there.
The next day I met up with the other two guys and never said anything to them.
Additional Notes
1) When the being shot me with the flashlight device, I experienced what they call "the cone of silence". It seemed like time stood still and nothing existed but me, like I was pulled
reality. It was the most absolute quiet ever imagined. I was really scared and tried to yell "No!", but all that came out was a gnarly growl. Everything went dark and I had the
hurtling skyward at a terrific speed. I also felt that I was being stretched, as if my feet were on the ground and my upper body was 20 feet above. My whole body shooting skyward.
2) When I was watching the UFO move slowly in front of me, I thought, I better get a picture of this. My camera was just inside my jacket in my shirt pocket and was very quick an
to get at. A sort of calming feeling came over me and I felt like, "It's no big deal", "don't worry about it", "I don't have to have a picture".
Afterwards I thought, what bizarre behaviour. I kept 2 cameras on the go all the time and I was always on the lookout for photo opportunities. To think a U.F.O. photo is not importa
insane.
3) While driving from Ross River to the trailer, I had a feeling that something unusual might happen, but never expected this.
4) Before this incident happened, I had no interest or knowledge about any of this. So one day I decided to write everything down that I could think of. (This original writeup has b
misplaced) Afterwards I bought a couple of books on UFOs etc. and after reading them, realized that I'm not the only one, and that my experiences are not all just me.
5) Although I wanted to tell people about this, I was very reluctant to tell this story. Since it happened, I have told it to less than 10 people. Every time I tell someone, I feel like I jus
broke a promise I made to them that I wouldn't tell anybody. This feeling may just be me or it may be programmed into me to keep me quiet. I don't know.
I decided to tell it as more of an awareness thing. I'm sure other people have had experiences but are held back.
6) When I got back to Ross River, I was thinking about the sensation in my hands when I sat up on the bed. (with the beings). I looked down at my palms and was startled to see a sc
mark in the palm of each hand. I had not seen these before. Over the next couple of years, I asked two doctors and four nurses if they knew what this was and they all said no, they h
never seen anything like it before.
In September 2000, I asked my doctor about it and he said yes he knows of it and he told me the name of it (can't remember it now).
But they had no idea what causes it. Coincidence? I don't know.
I still have them.

On February 23, 1975, about 19:00 hours, two elementary school children called Masato Kawano and Katsuhiro Yamahata, 7 years old, were ska狵ng around in Kamimachi Hinode,
city of Kofu, when they observed two bright objects orange that evolved in the sky. One of these lights began to descend slowly to land behind a nearby vineyard. Witnesses said t

on one side and a ladder was deployed to the ground. Immediately fell a creature of hideous aspect that caused astonishment in the young. His face was dark brown, eyeless and
covered with coarse wrinkles. At its head stood out 2 large pointed ears and three huge tusks, 5 or 7 inches long, but the mouth is not appreciated. As described in detail and Yama
Kawano, it was a humanoid being, 1'3 feet tall, wearing a shiny metallic uniform. His hands have 4 fingers and feet ended two "protuberances". Le춨� shoulder slung one weapon
to a "rifle".
All elements existing at the Kofu close encounter, have the ingredients we would find in a children's story, space monsters, weapons, and many scares ...
The grotesque visitor seemed inspec狵ng the surrounding area ignoring the amazed witnesses. From a distance the children could see that within the device had another occupant
smaller than his companion, who was with a console full of bu㷁ons. But at one moment, the "being" walking along the outside, quickly approached to Yamahata, giving two pats
shoulder. The humanoid spoke in a strange language, like the sound of a casse㷁e tape heard backwards. The boy fell to the floor, said his partner, because he felt scared to death w
he saw the monster space beside him. Kawano reacted quickly helping to reincorporated his friend and both fled the scene. When arriving home, almost in panic and very nervou
children narrated their terrifying encounter. Intrigued by the amazing story of children their mothers decided to go to the vineyard to check the tes狵mony of the schoolboys. Acco
to the press said women could see for at least 5 minutes a dazzling orange light flashing on the vineyard. Yamahata and Kawano wanted to approach the place, but before the
decided to approach, there was a powerful burst of light and the ar狵fact flew up in the sky quickly. Many other witnesses were located by a local journalist, Yamanashi Nichi‐Nichi
Shimbun (Daily News), which confirmed the presence of strange lights in the área.

The Pascagoula, Mississippi Alien Abductions October, 1973
THE HICKSON/PARKER CONTACT CASE, 11 October 1973, Pascagoula, Mississippi. According to Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker of Pascagoula, the two had their nighttime fishing trip suddenly interrupted
strange creatures which carried them on board a hazy blue flying saucer and subjected them to medical examinations. Hickson said he was terrified during the experience and Parker fainted as he was floated into the
ship.
The strange case of nineteenyearold Calvin Parker, and fortytwoyearold Charles Hickson actually began a day before their famous encounter. On October 10, 1973, fifteen diffe
people, including two policemen reported seeing a large, silver UFO slowly fly over a housing project in St. Tammany Parish, New Orleans, Louisiana. Only a scant 24 hours later,
Hickson and Parker would have the scare of their lives; a frightening encounter with an eerie UFO.

Hickson and Parker would have the scare of their lives; a frightening encounter with an eerie UFO. The two men were both from the town of Gautier, Mississippi, and were doing so
fishing in the Pascagoula River on a dark night about 9:00 P.M. They suddenly heard a type of buzzing behind them. Both men turned around to see the source of the sound, and we
amazed to see a glowing, eggshaped object with bluish lighting on its front side. The unusual craft was hovering just a few feet above the ground, and about 30 feet from the shore
river. To their unbelief, a door opened in the object, and three strange beings began to float just above the water straight toward them. Though the beings had legs, they did not use th
they simply floated across the river.
Parker and Hickson would later describe the beings as “about five feet tall, had bulletshaped heads without necks, slits for mouths, and where their noses or ears would be, they had
conical objects sticking out, like carrots from a snowman’s head. They had no eyes, grey, wrinkled skin, round feet, and clawlike hands.”Hickson, frozen in fear and unbelief, was
grabbed by two of these creatures, and the third one took Parker, who fainted from fright. Hickson would later relate that when the beings put their arms under his body to support h
felt numb all over. He was then floated into a a brightlylit room inside of the UFO. Inside this room, he floated, along with an eyelike device which examined him all over. Hickso

the two men began to regain their composure, they were uncertain as to what they should do. Reluctant to report their harrowing experience, they felt obligated to tell someone.
fearing ridicule, they telephoned Kessler Air Force Base in Biloxi. Kessler referred their problem to their local sheriff’s office. Afraid of what reaction they might get from law
enforcement, they opted instead to drive to their local newspaper. Finding the office closed, they decided to take their bizarre story to the sheriff after all. Naturally the sheriff
men’s story was some kind of hoax, and to get to the truth, he put Hickson and Parker into a room which was wired for sound, hoping that they would slip up, and reveal why they w

Calvin Parker Depiction, Pascagoula Alien Charles Hickson
Soon news of the event began to surface. The local press released the story first; quickly followed by the wire services. Within a few days, the Pascagoula incident was major news a
over the USA. The Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO), sent University of California professor James Harder to investigate; Dr. J. Allen Hynek, representing the US
Force, also arrived to look into the story. Harder and Hynek interviewed Hickson and Parker together. Harder hypnotized Hickson, but he became so frightened that the session had
aborted. The two abductees were encouraged to take a liedetector test, which they both passed. Harder and Hynek, both highly respected in their professions, believed the two men’
story.
At a later date, Hynek stated; “There was definitely something here that was not terrestrial”.
In what may be a related incident, a couple of weeks after this chilling account, Coast Guardsmen and fishermen had an encounter with an underwater metallic object.
This strange object had an amber light on it, and the Guard chased it in the Pascagoula River. The object was close enough to touch, but each time it was prodded with a large boat h
would turn off its light, move a distance away, and turn its light back on. This unusual encounter lasted about 40 minutes before the craft disappeared.
The Pascagoula encounter is one of the most unusual accounts of all UFO reports. Though the sighting and abduction involved only two witnesses, there were several other sighting
unusual flying objects on the same night. The two men have held to their story, though no earthly explanation has been offered for the strange events of the night of October, 11, 197
CALVIN PARKER OLAYI
Mississippi tersanesi işçileri olan Hickson ve Parker, 11 Ekim 1973 tarihinde Pascagoula Irmağı kenarındaki eski bir iskelede balık avlarken birtakım varlıklar tarafından kaçırılmışl
Olay şöyle cereyan etmişti;
Bu iki adam, garip bir vızıltı sesinden sonra şaşkınlık içinde yumurta şeklindeki bir aracın, beyaz/mavi ışıklar saçarak kendilerine doğru geldiğini gördüler. Araç yere indikten sonra
içinden çıkan 3 garip varlık kendilerine yaklaşmaya başladı. Varlıklar yaklaşık 150 cm. uzunluğunda, gri renkli, kırışık derili varlıklardı ve kulaklarıyla burunlarının olduğu yerde
çıkıntı vardı. Ayrıca ağız bölgelerinde yine ağız yerine çok ince bir çizgi vardı. Bu anda henüz 19 yaşında olan Parker bayıldı. Ardından her iki adam da uzay aracına alındı.
Hickson, büyük bir göze benzeyen hareketli bir aygıt tarafından taranarak tıbbi incelemeden geçirildi. Yaklaşık 20 dakika sonra iki adam apar topar aygıtın içinden göl kıyısına geri
bırakıldılar.
Bu iki adamın hikayesi, kendilerini gizli bir mikrofonun saklandığı odada yalnız bırakıp giden yerel şerifi çok etkilemişti. Şerif onların bu hikayeyi uydurup uydurmadıklarını öğren
çalışıyordu, onların yalnız kalınca, uydurdukları hikayeden bahsedip gülmelerini bekliyordu. Ancak bu olmadı. İki adam arasında aşağıdaki konuşma geçmişti;
Hickson : Hayatımda daha önce hiç böyle bir şey görmemiştim. İnsanları buna inandıramazsın.
Parker : Ben burada oturup durmak istemiyorum, bir doktora görünmek istiyorum.
Hickson : Artık uyanıp inanmaya başlasalar iyi olur. İnanmak zorundalar.
Parker : O lanet kapının nasıl bir anda ortaya çıktığını gördün mü?
Bu iki adam yakınlarda bulunan Keesler Hava Kuvvetleri Üssü yetkililerince sorgulandı ve vaka daha sonra, ABD Hava Kuvvetleri, Blue Book/Mavi Kitap Projesi’ne son verdiğind
kendi UFO çalışma grubunu kuran Dr. J. Allen Hynek tarafından da incelendi. Hickson’a hipnoz yapılmaya çalışıldı ancak büyük acı çekmeye başlayınca seanslara devam edilmedi
Parker ise, yaşadıklarından ötürü sarsıntı geçirmişti ve ardından bir sinir krizi yaşadı. Her ikisi de uzun yıllar boyunca yaşadıklarının etkisini üzerlerinden atamadılar.

uçtuğunu gördüklerini bildirdiler. Bu olaydan sadece 24 saat sonra , Hickson ve Parker hayatlarının en korkunç gününü , yaşayacaklarını, korkunç bir UFO’yla karşılaşacaklarını
bilemezlerdi.
İkisi de Mississippi’nin Gautier kasabasından geliyordu ve saat 21.00 civarı gecenin karanlığında Pascagoula Nehrinde balık tutmaya çalışıyorlardı. Birden arkalarından gelen bir vı
sesi duydular . Sesin nereden geldiğini görmek için döndüklerinde, gördükleri parlak , yumurta şekilli ve ön tarafında mavi ışıklar olan cisim karşısında şaşkına döndüler. Garip araç
kıyıdan 10 metre mesafede, yerden birkaç metre yüksekte , havada duruyordu.
Şaşkınlıkla izlerlerken , objeden bir kapı açıldı ve üç garip yaratık , suyun üzerinden uçarak onlara doğru gelmeye başladı. Yaratıkların bacakları olmasına rağmen , onları kullanmıy
havada süzülerek ilerliyorlardı. Parker ve Hickson , daha sonra yaratıkları tasvir etmeleri istendiğinde şöyle anlatacaklar “ Yaklaşık 5 feet boyunda , mermiye benzer kafaları olan
boyunları olmayan yaratıklardı. Ağız olarak ince bir çizgi vardı ve burun ve kulaklarının olması gereken yerde , kardan adamın burnuna takılan havuç gibi küçük , konik çıkıntılar v
Gözleri görünmüyordu. Kırışık , gri renkli derileri , yuvarlak ayakları ve pençeye benzer elleri vardı.”
Korkudan ve şaşkınlıktan şok geçiren Hickson , İki yaratık tarafından tutularak taşınmaya başlandı. Korkudan bayılmış olan Parker’ı da yaratıklardan biri taşıyordu. Daha sonra , ol
düşündüklerinde , yaratıkların ellerini değdirdiği yerlerinin hafiflediğini ve onlar da yaratıklar gibi havada süzülerek, UFO’nun içindeki parlak bir odaya kadar bu şekilde taşındıkla
hatırlayacaklar. Odanın içerisinde , Hickson , göze benzer bir nesnenin önünden süzülerek geçirildi ve bir çeşit teste maruz kaldı. Yaratıklar odadan çıkarken aynı işlem Parker’a da
uygulanıyordu. İncelemelerin başlamasından yaklaşık 20 dakika sonra , işlemler sona erdi ve Hickson araçtan geriye uçarak çıkarıldı. Parker yerde ağlıyor , dualar ediyordu. Kısa bi
sonra , araç , gökyüzüne doğru yükselerek gözden kayboldu.
İkisi de , kendilerine geldiklerinde , ne yapacaklarını bilemediler. Yaşadıkları garip olayları bildirmeye isteksizdiler. Fakat birilerine anlatmaları gerekiyordu. Alay edilme riskini göz
alarak , Biloxi’deki Kessler Hava Kuvvetleri Üssünü aradılar. Üsten , yerel şerifleriyle görüşmeleri gerektiğini öğrenen ikili görebilecekleri tepkiden çekindiler ve yerel bir gazeteyl
konuşmaya karar verdiler. Gazetenin ofisinin kapalı olduğunu görünce çaresiz şerifle konuşmak üzere polis merkezine gittiler. İkisinin anlattığı hikayeyi dinleyen şerif , onlara inanm
ve doğruyu söylemelerini sağlamak , neden böyle bir hikaye uydurduklarını öğrenmek için onları ses geçirmeyen , izole bir odaya kapattı.
Olay kısa sürede duyuldu. İlk olarak yerel basında yayınlanan hikaye daha sonra kablo televizyon kanallarında görülmeye başlandı. Birkaç gün sonra Pascagoula olayı bütün Ameri
gündemine oturmuştu. Hava Fenomenleri Araştırma Organizasyonu, olayı araştırması için Kaliforniya Üniversitesi Profesörlerinden James Harder’ı gönderdi. Ayrıca Amerikan Hav
Kuvvetlerini temsilen Dr. J .Allen Hynek’de olay yerinde incelemeler yapmak üzere gelmişti. Harder ve Hynek beraber Hickson ve Parker’ı incelediler. Harder , Hickson’u hipnotiz
fakat seans o kadar korkutucu olmuştu ki iptal etmek zorunda kaldılar.
Araştırmacılar tarafından , yalan makinesi testinden geçmeye ikna edilen Hickson ve Parker , testlerden geçerek yalan söylemediklerini kanıtladılar. Uzmanlık alanlarında oldukça s
duyulan Harder ve Hynek iki adamın anlattığı hikayeye inanarak şu sözleri söylediler. “ Bu hikayede kesinlikle dünya dışı kaynaklı bir şeyler söz konusu. “
Bu hikaye ile bağlantılı olarak , birkaç hafta sonra ,Sahil Güvenlik Güçleri ve bazı balıkçılar suyun altından ilerleyen metalik renkli bir obje ile karşılaştılar. Cismin üzerinde kehriba
sarısı bir ışık vardı. Sahil Güvenlik , cismi Pascagoula nehri boyunca takip etti. Cisim , dokunulabilecek yakınlıktaydı fakat ne zaman uzun , balıkçı kancalarıyla cisme dokunsalar ,
ışığını söndürerek hızla uzaklaşıyor , belirli bir mesafeden sonra üzerindeki ışık yeniden yanıyordu. Bu karşılaşma , garip araç ortadan kaybolana kadar yaklaşık 40 dakika kadar sür
Pascagoula vakası , UFO olayları arasında en ilginçlerinden biridir. Kaçırılanlar iki kişi olsalar da , aynı gece tarif edilen garip aracı gördüğünü bildiren bir çok insan olmuştur. İki a
hikayelerine sadık kaldılar. Fakat 11 Ekim 1973 gecesi yaşanan olaylara kimse bir açıklama getiremedi.

HAIRY DWARF CARACAS (VENEZUELA) NOVEMBER 28, 1954:
In 1954, Jose Ponce and Gustavo Gonzalez were driving their truck on an isolated road outside Caracas, Venezuela. When they turned a corner, a luminescent sphere was blocking
way. More annoyed than scared, Gonzales went out the car to check and investigate. At that point, a hatch opened from the sphere and out came 3 hairy, short humanoids. One of th
humanoids jumped on Gonzalez. Gonzales was unable to shake the alien off because it was very strong. The alien was able to throw him 15 feet through the air. Unhurt, Gonzalez w
able to draw a knife and tried to stab the humanoid but the knife did not penetrate. Although they were outnumbered by one alien, the beings were intimidated enough to go back to
ship and fly away. The men reported their story to the police.

Elisabeth Klarer contacts

Like many of you, I get quite excited when I spot a mention of our favourite fine city in an unexpected place, so imagine my surprise (wow, I feel like a real journalist now I’ve used
phrase in a newspaper) when browsing the Eagle Annual 1965, I read of Norwich as the unexpected location of an unexpected visit, namely a friendly flyby from a flying saucer.
UFO spotted over Norwich in October 1953. Picture: EDP Library
If you feel you’ve successfully imagined my surprise, then you are wrong, because my surprise doubled on learning the encounter took place above the skies of South Park Avenue,
from where I live in Norwich’s more fashionable western fringe.
Having spent countless minutes researching the incident on Google, I can offer you the following mediumdepth account of the incident.
On October 6, 1953, A Mr F W Potter, an amateur stargazer and member of the Norwich Astronomical Society (which I hope is still with us, even if Mr Potter is not), was perusing
celestial firmament above our wide Norfolk skies with his 3.5 inch telescope.
Now imagine his surprise when instead of seeing the moon, or some Clangers, Mr Potter viewed an unearthly craft speeding from one bit of the solar system to another. Mr Potter
described the object thus: “Rays or beams of light could be seen distinctly from the dome and attached directly beneath it was a much larger and flattened dome with a protruding ba
running in a circumference around its edge.
This was clearly seen in the telescope by the rays of light thrown out from the apertures in the top dome.
The underneath of the large flattened bottom dome was hollow and appeared to be glowing red, but there were no vapour trails or gases to be seen.”
Mr Potter did what any rightthinking local citizen would do, and contacted the Eastern Evening News (as it was then; I myself bought the word ‘Eastern’ off the paper for £5 back i
1992 as a birthday treat to myself, and I now keep it in the attic), who ran the scoop the following day, with a letter from Mr Potter on the subject also appearing in the following
Observer, then going through a similar phase about UFOs as I did when I was a kid.
The craft Mr Potter saw was a popular make at the time, thanks to a Californian named George Adamski, a UFO ‘contactee’ who in 1952 claimed craft, looking much like those see
Mr Potter, were piloted by handsome Nordiclooking beings from Venus, who were into peace, galactic brotherhood and appearing to just one or two people at a time because anyth
else would obviously cause a panic.
Adamski backed up his claims with photographs showing the Venusian ships either in extreme closeup, or viewed through telescope over great distances, with no background featu
visible.
Despite seeing these saucers land, meeting their occupants and being taken inside a ship for a guided tour, Adamski was somehow unable to provide photographs of these latter even
pity, as such pictures would have made his story more credible, if less lucrative.
They (whoever ‘they’ are) don’t make saucers like that anymore.
Since almost everyone possesses the means to take pictures, or make a film, in their pocket, the saucers became shy.
No longer are incongruous objects, be they shaped like cigars, saucers, or spinning tops, to be seen in the corner of a box brownie’s eye; the days of the close encounter of the Instam
kind are behind us.
UFOs these days manifest themselves as dreary little points of light, or streaks in the clouds that could be anything, and are therefore likely to be nothing.
A shame, but maybe the saucers have grown distant as we have sharpened our view of the solar system.
Venus, covered in thick, impenetrable clouds for most of mankind’s history, is now known to more closely resemble Hell than a peaceful, flourishing utopia.
The New Horizons probe, with its findings about Pluto and its moons, demonstrate we no longer need rely on the fantastic figments of our imagination to get excited about space.
However, it is nice to know that, at least for one evening above South Park Avenue in 1953, some of that excitement, and the very human hope we might not be alone, glided across
Norwich in full view of a Mr F W Potter.

"The Universe is an immense spiral.' LYA told Prof. Hernandez. "The galaxies in some parts are superposed one upon others. They form parallel levels. They are contro

"How do you travel in space?"
"Well, we reach hyperspace employing our own magnetic field as well as utilizing energetic elements that have a great similarity to the mineral gasses that surround the universe,

When we have reached hyperspace, we travel by inertia through the normal networks with that which feeds our ship. However I can tell you that other civilizations which have c

"How can you achieve that?"

[The notes show that this dialogue took place in November of 1975.)
NOTES
1. Other ETs have attempted to explain the interrelationship of the various universes of being which coexist in time and space, and of which our scientists of Earth have evolved no knowledge to date. Each of tho
universes are said to also contain whole constellations and galaxies of stars, and some of them inhabited, totally unknown to us at this time, nor have we any conception of them. A lengthy discourse on this sub
provided by the ETs from a planet they called UMMO who have maintained contact with human beings in Spain for the past 38 years. (See UFO CONTACT FROM PLANET UMMO, Vol. 1, by Antonio Ribera, las
narrative report.)
2. It is becoming increasingly clear that many of the ETs coming here do not travel in the same space/time realm with which we have become familiar, that they resort to another which we have called "hyperspace"
a better word, and which now is being adopted by them as a term that approaches the reality of the condition more than other words in our familiar vocabulary. The Pleiadians visiting Switzerland (UFO CONTACT
THE PLEIADES, A Preliminary Investigation Report) and the UMMOs visiting Spain (UFO CONTACT FROM PLANET UMMO) have quite specifically described this condition.
3. These notes were made in November 1975, and indeed, the worst space accident in history up to that time, the explosive destruction of the United States sapceship Challenger, with it's entire crew of 7 aboard,
took the most lives, but was the most expensive in material costs and program loss in the history of this world, and that occurred in the middle of the 1980s, in 3,janary of 1986!
4. Another group of ETs has described great magnetic streams of energy forming veritable networks in space that enable those extraterrestrials to negotiate many lightyears of distance at superlight velocities ma
over. (See UFO CONTACT FROM PLANET KOLDAS.)
5. The ETs contacting what is called the RAMA Group in Peru have also described the use of metallic hydrogen and oxygen in structures, See the Appendix on those contacts attached to this report.

Disseminate The Word

[A further extract from the dialogue that took place in November of 1979, according to the Professor's diary and memos to himself.]

"Why is it indispensable that all have access to this knowledge that you have given me? Do you think for a moment that anyone would really understand the message?"
"You and your congenerationals, like the other races distributed throughout your world, pertain to the species we call EFIMERAS, as to say that your time of life is very ver

Night Fishing
As 77yearold Alfred Burtoo was fishing the Basingstoke Canal in the peaceful early hours of the morning of August 12, 1983, he saw a brilliant light descend from the sky and set
the nearby towpath. Thinking it must be a helicopter from the nearby MOD base, he took no notice, and poured himself a cup of tea from his Thermos flask. Then his dog, Tiny, beg
whining furiously and two figures emerged from the darkness.
"They were about four foot high, dressed in pale green coveralls from head to foot," Burtoo told reporters. "And they had helmets of the same colour with a visor that was blacked o
The strangers gestured to Burtoo to accompany them. Calmly setting down his cup of tea, the intrepid pensioner follow them along the towpath towards a saucershaped craft. "I wa
and didn't have much to lose," he later explained.
Inside the Saucer
Climbing up a set of steps into the saucer, Burtoo discovered that the ceiling was so low he had to stoop. He found himself inside a black, metallic octagonal chamber, which smelt s
of decaying meat.
"I did not see any signs of nuts or bolts, nor did I see any seams where the object had been put together," he recalled. "What did interest me most of all was a shaft that rose up from
floor to the ceiling. The shaft was about four feet in circumference, and on the righthand side stood two forms similar to those that walked along the towpath with me."
One of the beings told the old man to stand beneath an orange light, which appeared to scan him for a few minutes. "What is your age?" asked the entity, in a "singsong" voice whic
sounded like "a mixture of Chinese and Russian". When he replied that he was 78, it declared: "You can go. You are too old and infirm for our purposes." Bemused, Burtoo climbed
from the saucer and returned to his fishing spot.
"The first thing I did...was to pick up my cold cup of tea and drink it," he recalled. "And then I heard this whining noise, just as if an electric generator was starting up, and this thing
up then took off at a very high speed."
Apparently unfazed by his bizarre encounter, Burtoo resumed the task at hand. "I got into what I had come out for the fishing!" Despite his rather curt reception, he later declared h
nocturnal adventure to have been "the greatest experience of my life".
Quality Control?
Alfred Burtoo is not alone in having apparently failed an alien medical test. American abductee Carl Higdon believed that he had been rejected as a guinea pig for a hybrid breeding
program because his captors discovered that he had had a vasectomy. Likewise, Luis Oswald, an elderly Brazilian abducted in 1979 by beings who claimed to be from "a small gala
near Neptune", reported that she had endured a lengthy examination then been told she was "of no use".

The Voronezh aliens and the UFO landing front of childrens
Giant aliens encounter Voronezh, Russia,September 27, 1989:
It’s the most bizarre extraterrestrial encounter ever reported, dozens of eyewitnesses claimed that in the autumn of 1989, a trio of three eyed aliens — along with their mechan
companion… visited them.

Tass, the Soviet press agency, has reported the landing of an extraterrestrial vehicle in the Russian city of Voronezh. The creatures who emerged were 10 feet tall, with little knobby
and three eyes. They had a small robot in tow and went for a ”short promenade about the park,” Tass reports.
Giants in the park, Voronezh, Russia.
The story was originally published on October 11, 1989, in America, but its origin was the Russian newspaper TASS.
The report recounts the adventures of several young children who claimed to have seen a threeeyed alien with a robot escort. The alien was said to be about 10 foot tall. The craft,
according to eye witness testimony, landed on the outskirts of the city. Shortly thereafter, the tall alien appeared, and upon seeing the young lad, shot a type of weapon at him, causin
to vanish before the eyes of the other people around him. They saw a “threeeyed alien” about 10 feet tall, clad in silvery overalls and bronzecolored boots and wearing a disk on hi
chest. The TASS account also stated: “A boy screamed with fear, but when the alien gazed at him, with eyes shining, he fell silent, unable to move. Onlookers screamed, and the UFO
the creatures disappeared.”
Several drawings were made by some of the children who supposedly witnessed the events of Voronezh. A couple of these are included here. One of the drawings showed the Cyrill
alphabet character “zhe” on the side of the UFO.
”It was not an optical illusion,” said Lieut. Sergei A. Matveyev of the Voronezh district police station, who said in a telephone interview that he saw the landing of the U.F.O. on Se
Lieutenant Matveyev confessed that he had not actually seen the aliens, but said he saw the spaceship and “it was certainly a body flying in the sky moving noiselessly at a very high
speed and very low altitude“.
According to Tass, and a report today in the newspaper Sovetskaya Kultura, two boys and a girl from a local school – Vasya Surin, Zhenya Blinov and Yuliya Sholokhova – were pl
in a park on the warm evening of Sept. 27 when suddenly, at half past six, ”they saw a pink shining in the sky and then spotted a ball of deep red color” about 10 yards in diameter. A
crowd gathered, ”and they could clearly see a hatch opening in the lower part of the ball and a humanoid in the opening.”

Giant aliens encounter Voronezh, Russia,September 27, 1989:
Artist’s rendition of the Voronezh landing by Elena Penkova
Voronezh, Russia, 1989
A raft of sightings in the semirural city of Voronezh, Russia in September 1989 provide examples for Jose Caravaca’s “Distortion Theory” and study for UFO buffs, ET believers, debunkers, skeptics, and mass halluc
aficionados.

“In the afternoon of September 27, 1989, several children in Voronezh, an industrial center with a population of about one million, were playing soccer in a local park when a giant r
sphere, 30 feet in diameter, landed right next to them. A huge crowd quickly gathered. Suddenly, a hatch opened in the craft and two creatures stepped out. One was a short robotic
looking figure, the other was a gigantic humanoids (12 to 14 feet tall) walked about the town, perhaps sightseeing. The alien appeared to have “three eyes,” was wearing a silver jum
bronzecolored boots, and a round disk on his chest.
Because there were so many witnesses, and because of the earlier wave of sightings, the event caused a huge sensation. The news agency TASS picked up the story, and before long
frontpage news across the world. According to TASS, and a report in the newspaper Sovetskaya Kultura, two boys and a girl from a local school Vasya Surin, Zhenya Blinov and
Sholokhova were playing in a park on the warm evening of Sept. 27 when suddenly, at half past six, ''they saw a pink shining in the sky and then spotted a ball of deep red color'' a
10 yards in diameter. A crowd gathered, ''and they could clearly see a hatch opening in the lower part of the ball and a humanoid in the opening.”
The threeeyed creature, about over 10 feet tall and fashionably dressed in silvery overalls and bronze boots and with a disk on its chest, disappeared, then landed and came out for a
promenade with a companion and a robot. The aliens seemed to communicate with each other, producing the mysterious appearance of a shining triangle, and activated the robot wi
touch. Terrified, a boy began to scream, but with a stare of the alien's shining eyes, TASS said, the boy was silenced and paralyzed.
After a brief disappearance, the three returned, but this time one of the ''humanoids'' had ''what looked like a gun'' by his side a tube about two feet long that it directed at a 16year
boy. The boy, whose name was not given in the report, promptly vanished, but reappeared. Immediately afterward, the aliens stepped back into the sphere, which took off straight up

Residents of the city of Voronezh insisted that lanky, threeeyed extraterrestrial creatures had indeed landed in a local park and gone for a stroll and that a seemingly fantastic report
the event carried Monday by the official press agency TASS was absolutely true.
Lieutenant Sergei A. Matveyev confessed that he had not actually seen the aliens, but said he saw the spaceship and ''it was certainly a body flying in the sky,'' moving noiselessly at
high speed and very low altitude. To be honest, Lieutenant Matveyev said, he was a little skeptical himself when he first saw the object. ''I thought I must be really tired,'' he said.
rubbed my eyes and it didn't go away. Then I figured, in this day and age, anything is possible.''
Vladimir A. Moiseyev, director of the regional health department, said in a telephone interview that despite reports of widespread fear in the city, none of the witnesses had applied
medical help. But he said that ''certainly we are planning to examine the children.'' There was no explanation why, with the passing of two weeks, such an examination had not yet ta
place.
Mr. Moiseyev, like other authorities in Voronezh, the editors of TASS, and indeed many of its readers, treated the report as a serious scientific phenomenon. No extra men are assign
patrol the area because the department is shorthanded, said the duty officer at the local Interior Ministry department, who identified himself only by his last name, Larin, but he said
troops would be dispatched ''if they appear again.''
The TASS correspondent covering the case of the mysterious visitors to Voronezh, Vladimir V. Lebedev, seemed insulted that anyone would treat the story with anything but the ful
seriousness that it was given by the agency. In a telephone interview, Mr. Lebedev described conversations with dozens of witnesses and with experts who had examined the evidenc
spoken to the children. He said there were about three landings of the U.F.O between Sept. 23 and Sept. 29.
In the latest development, not yet reported by TASS, Mr. Lebedev said that Genrikh M. Silanov, head of the Voronezh Geophysical Laboratory, asked the children to draw what they
seen. Drawings said to be similar. Though isolated from one another, he said, the children all drew a bananashaped object that left behind in the sky the sign of the letter X.
Such descriptions, Mr. Silanov said, were reported as typical of U.F.O.'s in a 1976 article in the now defunct American magazine Saga. Mr. Silanov said that a rock that was reported
found at the site and described as being not something found on earth was actually a form of hematite, which is found in various parts of the Soviet Union. While not a witness hims
Mr. Lebedev said he had visited the site. ''The traces were still seen,'' he said. ''I could see holes of a clear shape that resembled the footprints of an elephant.''
Several scientists investigated and failed to convince themselves that all this was hallucination. The landing was investigated by a wide variety of scientists including medical
investigators, psychologists, criminologists, and more. It was discovered that numerous other people in the area had seen and even photographed the UFOs. Some of the witnesses s

Most exciting, however, was the analysis of the landing site. Depressions in the ground showed that the object weighed several tons. Radiation was found in the soil, as were unusua

Of course, Jose Caravaca’s “Distortion Theory” works to explain, somewhat, the event.
A good case can be made for mass hysteria or group hallucinations certainly.
For me, the extraterrestrial explanation doesn’t work, as once the entities debark from the “saucers” or UFOs, they resemble nothing like that reported in other UFO events, thus cre
whole otherworldly category.
Whatever happened in Voronezh in 1989, fact or fiction, the events intrigue, for many reasons, all worthy of study within the context of UFO lore.

The Varginha Incident (Brazil)
Location: Varginha, Brazil

In 1996 in Varginha, Brazil, during the course of several weeks at least two and perhaps as many as six alien creatures were captured or killed and turned over to American authoriti
a UFO may have crashed. Eyewitnesses described the creatures as humanoid and 3 to 4 feet tall. They had dark brown, hairless skin, big triangular heads with three short "horns" on
and huge red eyes that were vertically oval.

On January 20, Military forces captured two extraterrestrial creatures still alive in Brazil. The capture occurred in neighboring areas of city of Varginha, State of Minas Gerais, Cent
Brazil. The fact is to be considered one of the most significant ever registered in this country and in the entire world. Military authorities are keeping secret all details of the operatio
some information has already leaked to the UFO community due to the investigative job of Dr., Ubiraja Franco Rodrigues and Vitorio Paccaccini who lives nearby and recognized a
serious and dedicated researchers.
On the afternoon of January 20, about 3.30 PM local time, 3 young girls named Liliane, Valquiria and Katia observed a strange creature in a field of small bushes a few blocks from
they live. It was Saturday and they were coming back from their jobs when, crossing an empty area their attention was attracted by a strange being a few meters away. The ET was
kneeling and looked like it was hurt, suffering some sort of pain. No UFO was ever seen. The girls observed it for a few minutes and run away, afraid that they had just encountered
devil....
The three girls were extensively interrogated by above mentioned researchers, leaving no doubt whatsoever about what happened. Very simple kids, they described the ET's as being
dark brown creature, with a small body of 4 5 feet in height, no hair at all, big brown head, small neck. It also seemed to have some greasy, dark oil on its skin. A strange odor was
noticed by the mother of the girls, when she went to the site. The head of the creature had 2 big red eyes, no pupils, very small mouth and nose and what is interesting 3 protubera
in the head. The girls described such protuberances as horns.
Following the leads, researcher Rodrigues and Pacaccini started making inquiries everywhere in the town of Varginha, in order to know if anybody else had seen the same creature.
found several other people who also observed the ET's in the same location and maybe other ET's in different locations. While conducting their own investigations, both discovered
different witnesses has seen army trucks and other military vehicle and personnel that very morning of that day, a few blocks from the place the girls saw the ET's.
In trying to find out what the military were doing, Rodrigues and Pacaccini came to meet a few soldiers and sergeants. One of them decided to talk secretly about their mission, in a
confidential taped interview. This Sergeant confirmed that, about 9:00 AM, January 20. the Fire Department of Varginha was required to capture a strange animal in the area. When
fireman arrived in a truck in the place, they noticed that it was not any strange animal at all, and reported the fact to the Army Sergeant School Commander in neighboring city of Tr
Coracoes (about 10 miles east of Varginha)
Army truck was sent to the place and both forces captured the creature using nets and equipment regularly used to capture wild animals. The ET was placed till alive in a box that w
covered by resistant fabric. The box was placed on top of the truck, the vehicle headed to the Army Sergeant School and all personnel involved was ordered not to talk about it with
anyone else "It was a Secret Operation" told them the lieutenantcolonel Wanderley, who commanded the operation. After such unusual, confidential report a few other military deci
come forward and speak about the captures as long as their identities were totally kept secret. They all confirmed, on taped interviews, that a second creature (possibly the same one
by the girls that afternoon) was captured on the night of January 20, by personnel from the Army and the Fire Department. Details of such operation is fully known. This creature id
to the first one, was taken to the Regional General Hospital of Varginha that same night, stayed there for a few hours and then was transferred to a better equipped facility, the Huma
Hospital.
A few nurses and personnel from Regional General Hospital had confirmed some facts and they were all suppressed. Individuals who had contacts with the second creature were ad
to avoid press and UFO Researchers and not to talk about it with anyone, not ever their families or relations. AT the Humanities Hospital the second creature was kept at least for 2
and on the second night on January 22nd a huge military operation took place to remove the creature already dead.
Interviews with some of the military who participated in this new operation, removing the creature from the Humanitas Hospital, declared that 3 Army trucks were used, each one d
by 2 different soldiers. It is believed that 3 trucks were used to remove only one body in order to avoid the soldiers to know in which truck would it be transported. The drivers and
follows couldn't see the details of the operations, as they were kept outside the hospital area. Military personnel from the Army Internal Intelligence (called "S2" in Brazil and extre
violent and repressive) were responsible for getting the corpse from the interior of the hospital, placing it in a box and then in one of the trucks.
All 3 trucks then were taken to a military facility in Campinas, State of Sao Paulo, about 200 miles from Varginha, in the middle of the night. There, the corpse was removed to the
University of Campinas , one of the best institutions in the country. It is believed and we already have detailed information to be soon released that the ET body was autopsied by D
Badan Palhares, worldwide acclaimed as one of the best professionals in that area alive (he was the one who autopsied German Nazi Mengele, about ten years ago) Palhares, as wel
any other authority involved, denied he was involved in any such operations.
UFO researchers from all over the country have been helping closely Rodrigues and Pacaccini, in order to discover each and every detail of the capture of the two ET's, Media in Br
has never been so active and great majority of population believes that the case is real and that the military and civil authorities involved are keeping the facts secret. Many strange
are happening simultaneously, such as prison of soldiers, Sergeants being transferred at short notice etc. The phones of many UFO researchers involved in the case are confirmed to
tapped and a few threats have been made anonymously.
Up to now, almost all details of the whole operation are known to the UFO researchers and a few can already been released. In a matter of weeks, all information will be fully disclo

Everyday new pieces of this fantastic puzzle are being received by researchers in many cities and more and more military personnel have agreed to talk. Meanwhile, the region whe

UFO KAZALARI VARGINHA OLAYI

20 Ocak 1996 tarihine yakın günlerde , Varginha bölgesinde ve çevresinde, korku dolu görgü tanıkları tarafından yüzlerce UFO gözlem raporu verilmişti. Afraino da Costa Brasil ( 3
yaşında ve dokuz yaşındaki kızı Emeline, 13 Ocak günü evlerinin yakınında havada duran garip bir gemi gözlemlemiştir. Emeline tarafından çizilen geminin diyagramının , sonrada
biten her şeyle son derece ilgili olduğu ortaya çıkacaktı. Yoğun UFO faaliyetleri , araba sahiplerinden gelen çok sayıda raporu da içermekteydi , bunların bazıları garip kor halinde b
gemi tarafından takip edildiklerinden emindiler.
20 Ocak Cumartesi gününün erken saatlerinde çiftçi Eurico de Freitas ve onun resmi nikahsız karısı Oalina Augusta, ürken atlarının gürültüsüyle, saat 01.00 de yataklarından
kaldırılmışlardı. Onlar beklenmedik bir manzarayla karşılaşmak üzere evden dışarıya çıkarken evdeki üç köpek öfkeyle havlıyordu. İkisi de yerden 5 metre yükseklikte tarlaların
sessizce hareket eden gri renkli bir objeyi hayretler içerisinde izledi. Obje , gecenin karanlığında kaybolmadan önce onlardan uzağa doğru ilerlemeye devam etti.
İlk karşılaşma
Varginha ( nüfus 180.000 ) şehrinde , kasabadan yaklaşık 10 km uzaklıkta Jadim Andere kuzey banliyösü bulunmaktadır.
20 Ocak Cumartesi sabahı saat 08.00 da Varginha şehri itfaiye bölümüne ad verilmeden telefon edilmişti. Bu telefon, onları Jardim Andere bölgesindeki bir parkta görülen gizemli b
yaratıkla acilen ilgilenmeleri gerektiği yolunda uyarmıştı.
Brezilya’da vahşi ve tehlikeli hayvanların , insanların oturduğu bölgelerde dolaşması sıra dışı bir şey değildir ve bu öylesine çok olur ki itfaiye , böyle olaylarla ilgilenme yetkisine
sahiptir.
Sabah saat 10.00 sıralarında , bir itfaiye kamyonu bölgeye vardı ve 3 numaralı Switzerland sokağının dışındaki bir yamacın üstüne park etti. Onlar vahşi bir hayvan uğraşacaklarını
düşünerek yanlarında kafes ve ağlarla gelmişlerdi , tahminen bir jaguarla veya domuza benzer bir hayvanla ( Güney Amerika’ya mahsus) karşılaşacaklarını sanıyorlardı ama
eğimden ağaçlıklı bölgeye doğru aşağıya indiklerinde daha önce hiç görülmemiş bir yaratıkla yüz yüze gelmişlerdi. Tam önlerinde, 1.20 cm boylarında , kan kırmızısı gözlü ve garip
kahverengi derisi olan iki ayaklı bir hayvan yere çömelmişti. Görünüşe göre yaralanmıştı, yaratığın alnında üç adet belirgin yumru yükselmekteydi.
İtfaiyeciler derhal yaratığın üzerine çullandılar ve biraz zorlukla onu bir ağla yakalamayı başardılar. Pacaccini , daha sonra bana, yaratığın ağız yerinde küçük bir deliği olduğunu ve
kovanından farklı olmayan garip bir vızıltı sesi çıkardığını söyledi.
İtfaiyeciler , yaratığı yakalamakla uğraşırlarken , görevli memur 25 km uzaktaki Tres Caracoes üssünü ( Ordu Çavuş Eğitim Okulu ) aradı. Üsteki komutan General Sergio Coelho L
derhal taburlara parkı mühürlemeleri emrini erdi.
Bir mütahitin asistanı olan Henrique Jose , yakındaki bir evin çatı katından her şeyi görmüştü. Daha sonra araştırıcılara , yaratığın yakalanmasına 4 itfaiyecinin katıldığını ve onu bi
kutuya yerleştirdikten sonra ordu yetkililerine haber verdiklerini söyledi, herkes bölgeyi çabucak terk etmişti. Yaratık , Tres Caracoes’teki askeri okula götürülmüştü.
İkinci karşılaşma
Aynı gün saat 15.30 sularında , 3 genç kız , hizmetçi olarak çalıştıkları işten dönerken , Beneveuto Bras Vieira Caddesinde 76 Numara olarak belirlenen yerde ( Jardim Arden bölges
binanın dışında bir yaratığa rastlayıverdiler. Bu boş arazi , ilk yaratığın yakalandığı yere yakındır.
Liliane Fatima Silva ( 16 ) , kız kardeşi Valquiria Fatima Silva (14) ve bir arkadaşları olan Katia Andrade Xavier (22) kendilerinden 25 adım kadar uzakta tam yollarının üstünde du
yaratığın alnından yükselen üç hörgüçten ve şok edici görüntüsünden dolayı kalakaldılar ve onun “ şeytan “ olduğunu düşündüler. Tam anlamıyla dehşet içinde , bulundukları yerde
bağırarak kaçtılar.
Gürültüden rahatsız olan yaşlıca bir kadın ve genç bir kız, üç kızı koşarken gördüler ve yaratığa belli bir mesafeden bakarak durdular.
Kızlar , kısa sürede Liliane ve Valquiria’nın annesi olan Luisia Silva’nın evine vardılar ve anneleri şaşkınlık içinde onların hikayelerini dinledi. Bu sırada , Benevuto Bras Vieira
Sokağında bir kalabalık toplandı. Onlar , endişe duyan mahalle sakinlerinin telefonlarıyla alarma geçen itfaiye ve askeri personelin , yaratığı uzaklaşmadan önce çabucak ağ
yakalanmasını izlediler.
Pacanni bana, itfaiyeciler yaratığı yakalamaya çalışırken kalabalıktaki bazı çocukların ona taş atarken görüldüğünü söyledi. Yaralı yaratığın taşınıp götürülürken çıkardığı vızıldama
anlatılanlara göre acıklı bir manzaraydı.
Bölgesel UFO araştırıcısı Franco Rodrigues saat 15.30 da bir dizi telefonla olay hakkında bilgilendirilmişti. Rondrigues , o sırada o gün daha erken saatlerde olan olayların farkında
değildi. Üç kızın hepsiyle röportaj yapmıştı ve onların samimiyetinden ve dürüstlüğünden hemen etkilenmişti. Aynı zamanda onların bu deneyimden dolayı şok geçirdiğinin
varmıştı.
Kaderin garip bir cilvesi, bir diğer UFO araştırıcısı Rodrigues de Pacanni ise sabahki olaylardan haberdardı ama akşamki karşılaşma hakkında hiç bir şey bilmiyordu. Kaçınılmaz ol
iki ufoloğun yolları , görgü tanıklarını ararlarken çakışmıştı. Ellerinde dünya dışı varlıkların muhtemel yakalanmasıyla ilgili iki tam bağımsız vaka olduğunu keşfettikleri andaki
şaşkınlıklarını hayal edebilirsiniz.
Gizemi çözmek
Brezilyalı UFO araştırmacılarından oluşan ekipler, meydana gelenlerle ilgili ilk elden anlatılacak olanları duymak üzere Varginha’ya akın etti. Halk toplantıları düzenlendi, basının d
çekildi, ufak kitapçıklar dağıtıldı ve çok geçmeden 60 görgü tanığı ortaya çıktı.
İnanılmaz görünse bile , röportaj yapılan insanların bazıları ordu mensubuydu . Bu gibi birbirlerine yakın topluluklarda , birçok ailenin asker olarak görev yapan üyesi vardır ve 20 O
vakası , kahvaltı sofralarında açıkça tartışılmıştı. Çok geçmeden , araştırmacılara birinin kardeşi veya kocasının ya olay mahallinde bulunduğu, ya bir konvoy askeri kamyonla yolcu
yaptığı yada yaratığın hastaneden götürülmesine katıldığı söylenmişti. İsimler ve mesafeler de bildirilmişti ve araştırıcılar bunları araştırmada hiç zaman kaybetmedi.
20 ocak günü , şehrin Jardim Andere bölgesinde iki ayrı olay meydana geldiğinden kesinlikle hiç şüphe yoktur. Ama bunda sonra ne oldu? Görgü tanıkları anlattıklarıyla birlikte ön
çıktıkça , sonunda bir tablo belirmeye ve bulmacanın parçaları yerine oturmaya başladı.
Cumartesi günü sabahı yakalanan ilk yaratığın Tres Coracoes’teki Çavuş Eğitim Okuluna götürüldüğü açıktır. Ona sonradan ne olduğu belirsizdir ama ikinci yaratıktan sorumlu olan
askeri personel inanılmaz bir şey yapmıştır.
Cumartesi akşam üzeri geç saatlerde , Varginha Bölge Hastanesine varmışlar ve yaratığı içeriye taşımışlardır. Ya aynı gün veya ertesi gün Pazar sabahı , yaralı yaratık Varginha’nın 1
uzağındaki Humanitus Hastanesine nakledilmişti. Tıbbi kaynaklara göre bu hastane , onun yaralarıyla uğraşabilmek için daha iyi teçhiz edilmişti.
22 Ocak Pazartesi , saat 10.0018.00 arası Humanitus Hastanesinin dışında üç askeri kamyon park etmişti. Tıbbi kaynaklar , yaratığın saat 18.00 de öldüğünü açıkladılar. Askeri bir
kamyon girişten içeri girdi ve kapıya doğru geri geri gitti. Kapının diğer tarafındaki manzara, orada bulunan birkaç görgü tanığı tarafından tarif edildi. İkinci yaratık küçük
yatırılmıştı, kutunun kapağı da oradaydı.
Amonyağa benzer kötü bir koku adayı doldurmuştu. Bu ilginçti , çünkü Cumartesi günü yaratıkla karşılaşan üç kızdan ikisinin annesi olan Luisia Silva , o günün geç saatlerinde onu
görüldüğü noktaya geri gitmişti. Ayak izleri görmüştü ve daha sonra araştırıcılar , güçlü bir amonyak kokusunun etrafı sardığını söylemişti.
Orada Humanitus Hastanesinde bir odayı doldurmuş olan itfaiyeciler i polisler ve askeri görevlilerle birlikte en az 15 doktor vardı. Doktorlardan birinin elinde bir forseps tutarak ya
yaklaştığı görülmüştü. Forsepsi yaratığın yüzünün üzerinde gezdirmiş , ince ağzı yükselterek açmış , forsepsi içeriye doğru alçaltmış ve sonunda da siyah bir dili dışarıya çekmişti. B
saniye sonra kavramayı bırakmıştı. Dil , aniden yay gibi geriye fırlamıştı.
Görgü tanığına göre , yaratık 3 parmağa sahipti ve alnında yükselen üç hörgüç ( çıkıntı ) vardı. Hiçbir cinsel organ, hiçbir meme ucu ve hiçbir karın deliği yoktu. Dizlerde buruşmuş
sıyrılmış görünen eklemler görülüyordu.
Sonunda , kutunun kapağı vidalanmıştı ve yüzlerinde maskeleri ve ellerinde eldivenleri olan iki askeri görevli onu arkada park eden kamyona yerleştirmeden önce naylon bir çarşafl
sarmaladı.
İsimleri sayalım
Daha önceden bahsedilen bölgedeki Brezilyalı askeri personel arasında şu kimseler vardı:
Yarbay Olimpio Wanderley Santos ( konvoyun komutanı ), Teğmen Temente Tiberio, Yüzbaşı Ramirez, Çavuş Pedrosa ( s2 Askeri İstihbarat ve görüntüleri bir JVC kameraya kayd
kişi ) , erler De Mello ve Crillo ( bedenin içinde bulunduğu kamyonu sürmüşlerdi )
Bu adamlar “Çavuş Eğitim Okulu “ndan yolculuğa çıkmıştı ve burası , onların hastaneyi terk ettiklerinde geri döndükleri yer olarak kabul ediliyor. Özetle, sarı bir Volkswagen kamy
öncülük ettiği uzun bir askeri kamyon ve özel araç konvoyu 23 Ocak Salı günü , sabah saat 04.00 de Varginha’nın dışına yöneldi.
300 kilometrelik yolculuk onları Sao Paulo eyaletindeki “ Subay Adayları Eğitim Okulu”na götürmüştü. Yaratığın daha sonra Unicamp’a ( Campinas Üniversitesi ) götürüldüğü
bilinmektedir.
Rodrigez de Pacaccini ile yapılan röportaj sırasında , Varginha’nın Santana bölgesine yolculuk yapmakta olan deneyimli bir avukattan bahsetti. İşine giden yol üzerinde , sıra dışı
olduğunu düşündüğü, yol boyunca park etmiş olan birkaç askeri aracı geçmişti , bunun da ötesinde öğle vakti geri döndüğünde araçların hareket etmediklerini görmüştü. Meraklı bir
şekilde arabasını belli bir uzaklıkta park etmişti ve kendisine manzarayı mükemmel bir şekilde izleme imkanı veren tedbirli bir görüş açısı almıştı.
Savaş teçhizatı kuşanmış olan 7 askerin , araçlarından aniden inip birkaç metre arayla yakındaki ormanlığa yürüdüğünü gördüğünde şaşırmıştı. Adamlar kısa bir süre sonra ağaçların
içinde kaybolmuştu, tanık üç ayrı tüfek atışı sesiyle irkilmişti. Bir süre sonra adamlar iki ceset torbası taşıyarak tekrar görünmüştü. Bir tanesi sanki hareket ediyor gibi görünmüştü.
Bu şok edici olay sırasında iki Brezilya Hava Kuvvetleri jeti yukarıda daireler çiziyordu. Santana bölgesi , Jardim Andere’ye komşudur ve üç kızın yaratıkla karşılaştıkları yere çok
yakındır
Rodrigues e Paccacini vakanın bütün görünümleri konusunda çok açık ve dürüsttü. Ama son zamanlarda aydınlanan bir diğer gerçek konusunda konuşurken ölçülü bir sakinlik içind
Görünüşe göre , cumartesi sabahı vakasında yaratığı yakalamaya çalışan bir polis yaralanmıştı. İki gün sonra genç adamın bir bölge hastanesinde öldüğü onaylanmıştı. Ölüm
resmi olarak i zatürree açıklaması getirilmişti. Ailesi bunu inanılması güç buldu ve otoritelere daha fazlasını sormak için çabaladı. Onların protestoları sağır kulaklarla karşılaştı; aile
şekilde “ gidin başımızdan “ denmişti. Oğullarının ölüm şartlarının açıklanması için çabalarına devam ediyor ve cesedin bağımsız bir otopsi için mezarda çıkarılmasını ümit ediyorla
Pacaccini’yle yaptığımız röportajın sonlarına doğru , vakaya bir Amerikan müdahalesinin olduğunu söyledi. Başlangıçta Harvard Üniversitesi psikiyatri profesörü John Mack’in Va
ziyaretinden söz ettiği sanıldı. Prof. Mack o üç görgü tanığı kızla iki saatin üzerinde süren bir röportaj yapmıştı. Mack bu konuda profesyonel olan meslektaşları tarafından davet ed
ve kızların doğru söylediğine, aksi kanıtlandığı takdirde diplomasını yırtıp atacak kadar ikna olmuştu.
Pacaccini kısa bir süre önce , Brezilya Silahlı Kuvvetlerinin Amerika Birleşik Devletleri tarafından , Brezilya hava sahasına bir UFO girdiği konusunda uyarıldığını söyleyen bir Bre
Hava Kuvveleri radar operatörüyle röportaj yaptığını açıkladı. Uyarı tam olarak enlem ve boylam koordinatlarıyla birlikte verilmişti ama Amerikalılar UFO’nun inmek üzeremi yok
çarpmak üzeremi olduğunu anlayamamışlar. Pacaccini , bunun askeri otoritelerin neden hemen bölgede olduklarını açıklamaya yardım edebileceğini söyledi. Normalde onlar her şe
ağırlıkta yapma eğilimindedirler . Bununla birlikte Pacaccini yine de onların yeterince hızlı hareket edemediklerini söyleyerek gülüyor. Zira kendisi ve diğer araştırıcılar kendi hükü
ve ya Amerikalıların hayal edebileceklerinden çok daha önce bölgeye varmışlardı.
Eğer bir düşme olayı söz konusuysa , konuyu örtbas etmekten sorumlu olan kişilerin , Brezilya gibi bir ülkenin en yoğun nüfuslu bölgelerinden birinde bir hayli ter dökmüş olmalar
gerek.
Pacaccini aynı zamanda bazıları telefonla yapılan bir çok tehdide maruz kaldığını ve bu hadiselerde kurşun geçirmez yelek giymeye mecbur kaldığını açıkladı . Ordudaki biri onun
isminden çokça bahsettiğinde on günlük men cezası aldığı genel olarak bilinmektedir. Gerçekte, son raporlara göre , sıkı tedbirler alınmaya başlanmıştır. General Coelho Lima’nın o
mensuplarının herhangi bir Brezilyalı UFO araştırmacısıyla konuşmaması konusunda emir verdiği rapor edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte , bu durum , araştırmacıların olayla ilgili olarak
ve özel bilgi sızdırmasını engellememiştir.
Onlar artık şunları doğrulayabiliyorlar:
İlk yaratığın bir askeri kamyona yüklendiği 20 Ocak sabahında Amerikalı bir sivil de vardı.
20 Ocak günü, Uluslar arası Sao Paulo Havaalanında bir AC5 veya c17 USAF nakliye uçağı görülmüştü.
Aynı uçak 22 Ocak günü Campinas Havaalanında görüldü.
Pacaccini bir çeşit kaza olduğuna inanmıştı ama nasıl emin olabilirdi ki? Bu, zihinleri en çok meşgul eden soruydu. Bunun doğrulanması istendiğinde , Pacaccini güldü, sonra Vargi
bölgesinden dışarı taşınan enkazı gören görgü tanıkları olduğunu söyledi. Daha fazla görgü tanığının ortaya çıkacağını ve bunların arasında bir veya iki eski hatıra avcısının
bulunabileceği ümidi var.
Aynı zamanda Humanitus Hastanesindeki bir doktorun Varginha’nın çevresindeki şehirlerden ve kasabalardan ikinci yaratığın otopsisine katılmaları için uzmanlar çağırdığını keşfet
Bunların bazılarına DNA uzmanları deniliyordu.
Kayıp Arkadaşları mı Arıyoruz ?
Varginha vakası esas olarak 2023 Ocak 1996’da meydana gelen hadiselere dayanmaktadır. Ancak hemen hemen üç ay sonra , 21 Nisan günü meydana gelen olayları bir düşünün. 6
yaşındaki bayan Terezinha Callo Clepf , Varginha’daki hayvanat bahçesindeki restoranda bir akşam yemeğinin tadını çıkarıyordu.
Yaklaşık olarak 21.00 da masasını bir sigara içmek için terk etti. Daha önceden rapor edile yaratığın aynısıyla yüz yüze geldiğinde , neredeyse kalp krizi geçiriyordu. Onun tarifleri,
önceden anlatılanlara uyuyordu ve bütün ülkeye şok dalgaları göndermişti.
Bayan Clepf , dünyada hayali bir hikaye uyduracak olan en son kişidir ve kendisi yoğun kamuoyu ve medya ilgisine maruz kalmıştır. Anlaşılır bir şekilde , Brezilyalı araştırıcıların
zihninde ani sorular ortaya çıktı:
Orada , 20 Ocak vakasından sonra hala kayıp olan bir varlık mı vardı?
Yoksa arkadaşları , onları aramak için geri mi dönmüştü?
Sadece üç hafta sonra, bir motorcu, ön farları 50 metre uzaklıktaki benzer bir yaratığı gösterdiğinde kamyonunu bir virajda sürüyordu. Şoke olan sürücü aniden frene bastığında, yar
kan kırmızısı gözlerini korumak için ellerini kaldırdığını ve gecenin içine kaçtığını görmüştü. Onun da her elinde üç veya dört parmağı vardı.
Yaratıkla karşılaşan iki kızın annesi olan bayan Silva , daha sonra , 29 Nisanda saat 22.05 de 4 yabancının evine geldiğini belirtti. Silva’ya kızlarını bu yaratıkla karşılaşma konusun
yalan söylemeye ikna ederse oldukça iyi miktarda para teklif ettiler, Silva onları reddetti
Adamların hiçbiri Brezilyalı değildi. Beyaz ve krem rengi Armani imzalı giysiler giymişlerdi. Kocası Jose Lopes de Silva bir otobüs şoförüdür ve o sırada dışarıda işindeydi. Adaml
geleceklerini söylemişlerdi. Adamlar deniz mavisi renkli 1994 model Linkoln Continental marka bir arabayla ( Brezilya Federal Lisans Plakalı) gitmişlerdi.
Özetle:
Brezilya yıllarca bir çok olağanüstü UFO olayına tanık olmuştur, fakat bunlardan hiçbiri araştırmacıları 20 Ocak 1996’da meydana gelen olay kadar derinden etkilememiştir. 20 Oca
sabahı erken saatlerde, çiftçi Eurico de Freitas ve eşi Oralina Augusta tarlalarının üzerinde asılı duran puro biçiminde bir cisim gördüler. Ertesi sabah, Varginha’nın 10km. ilerisinde
Jardim Andere köyü sakinleri, yakınlardaki ormanlık arazide garip bir varlık gördüklerini söyleyerek İtfaiyeye başvurdu. Askeri yetkililerle birlikte olay yerine gelen itfaiye görevli
yaklaşık 1 metre boyundaki bir varlığı ağlarla yakaladılar.
Aynı gün, Liliane ve Fatima adlı iki kız kardeş ve arkadaşları Katia, bir duvarın arkasında büzüşmüş gördükleri bir yaratıkla karşılaştılar. Korkan çocuklar evlerine doğru koşarak ka
Bir kez daha yetkililere haber verildi ve yaratık yakalandı.
Bunu takip eden günlerde, Brezilyalı UFO araştırmacıları aralarında doktorlar, avukatlar ve bazı askeri yetkililerin bulunduğu düzinelerce görgü tanığını sorgulayarak olay hakkında
edinmeye çalıştılar. Olayı takiben bölgeye pek çok Amerikalı yetkili gelmiş ve enkaz kaldırma çalışmalarında yer almışlardır.
Şahitler Konuşuyor:
Deneyimli bir pilot olan Carlos de Souza, olay günü uçuş halindeyken bir kazaya şahit olduğunu; bunun Varginha’da ele geçirilen uzaylılarla ilgisi olabileceğini söylemiştir.
Sauza, kendisiyle yapılan röportajda şunları söylemiştir:
“Gökte gördüğüm cisim oldukça parlaktı; bir puroyu andırıyordu, sadece biraz daha genişti. Önce tökezleyen cisim daha sonra bir şeye çarpıp düşmeye başladı. Onu 20 km. kadar ta
ettim. İndiği yere vardığımda orada askerlerin olduğunu gördüm. Beni durdurup geri dönmeye zorladılar.
Cismin düştüğü yerde garip şeyler oluyordu. Ordunun 2 Mercedes kamyonu ve yaklaşık 3040 asker, ormana dalmış bir şeyler arıyor gibiydiler. Bazı parçalar toplayıp kamyona
yüklüyorlardı. Bu eğilmiş metal parçalarından birini elime alıp ovduğumda birden normale döndü.
Bölgede genelde yaralıları taşımakta kullanılan oldukça büyük bir ordu helikopteri de vardı. Dikkatimi çeken diğer bir şey de helikopterin içinden yayılan keskin amonyak kokusuy
Olayın ilk şahitlerinden Eureka ve Oralina Freitas çifti ise kendileriyle yapılan röportajda olay günü uçan, fakat belirgin biçimde hasar görmüş bir cisim gördüklerini belirtmiş ve şu
söylemişlerdir:
“Cisim gri renkteydi ve bir tür denizaltına benziyordu. Çayırların üstünde uçuyordu, etrafında ona saldırmaya hazırlanan kediler vardı. Ben ve eşim onu izlemeye başladık. Fakat
etrafındaki dumandan dolayı onu çok iyi gözlemleyemedik.”
Olayın baş araştırmacısı Vitorio Pacaccini ise olay hakkında şöyle konuşmuştur:
“Varginha Askeri Polisi de gerçekleri inkar ediyor. Fakat askeriyenin olayda oynadığı rol daha esrarengiz bir gerçeği gözler önüne seriyor: 20 Ocak 1996 gecesi, ikinci varlığın
yakalanması operasyonunda bulunan, gizli servis görevlisi asker Marco Eli Cheresi’nin ölümü.”
Olayın bir diğer baş araştırmacısı Ubirajara Rodrigues ise bu esrarengiz ölüm olayı hakkında şunları söylemektedir:
“Ölen polis memurunun annesi, eşi, kız kardeşi ve babası tarafından da onaylanan gerçek şudur: Brezilya gizli servisinde çalışan bu polis 20 Ocak gecesi yapılan yakalama operasyo
yer almıştır.”

26 Jun 1959 Papua, Papua New Guinea
The Father Gill sighting Papua, New Guinea, 1959:

William B. Gill, an Anglican priest with a mission in Boianai, Papua New Guinea, observed craftlike UFOs — one with Humanoid figures on top — on two consecutive evenings,
2627, 1959. About twentyfive natives, including teachers and medical technicians, also observed the phenomena. They “signaled” the humanoids and received an apparent respon
This was one of sixty UFO sightings within a few weeks in the New Guinea area.
On the evening of June 26, 1959, an Anglican missionary named Rev. William Booth Gill was walking out of his house in Boainai, Papua New Guinea when he noticed a bright spa
object in the sky. For the next four hours, Rev. Gill took notes and watched the light with more than 30 other witnesses. When it disappeared after 45 minutes, it came back with thre
smaller objects an hour later. This “mothership” flashed a blue light from the center of its deck, and the object was so close that Rev. Gill and the other observers could see four figu

The next night, Rev. Gill and some other missionaries saw the mothership near the same location of the first sighting, along with two other smaller UFOs. The four figures on top w
again visible, and when Rev. Gill waved to one of the them, the figure waved back. Ananias Rarata, a native schoolteacher, began to wave too, and all four of the figures waved bac
the next couple of minutes until they decided to go below deck. After a half hour, Rev. Gill left to go to dinner, and the other observers left to go to church. Nobody saw the UFOs fo
rest of the evening, although there was an inexplicable explosion sound heard around 10:40 PM.

Rev. Gill’s sightings caused a lot of excitement in Australia. The Victorian Flying Saucer Research Society thought Rev. Gill’s detailed reports were final proof that UFOs existed. T
members of Australia’s federal parliament all received copies of Rev. Gill’s report, and the government launched an investigation to determine what exactly Rev. Gill had seen.
The official conclusion was that Rev. Gill was a “reliable observer”, but that the incidents were probably nothing more than “natural phenomenon coloured by past events and
subconscious influences of UFO enthusiasts.” Doubters thought that the objects were Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars, and the “human shapes” were explained as “various cloud densities”
Others thought Rev. Gill had made the story up entirely. Dr. Donald H. Menzel, a Harvard astronomer and notable UFO debunker, accused Gill of manipulating the testimony the
“uneducated” natives had given. He also thought Rev. Gill wasn’t wearing his glasses at the time, and claimed that the position of Venus was left unmentioned in Gill’s reports. J. A
Hynek, another astronomer and the head of the Center for UFO Studies, rebuked Menzel, and noted that Rev. Gill was wearing his glasses at the time and had, in fact, identified Ven
his reports.
Before his sightings, Rev. Gill initially considered himself a skeptic. There had been sightings of strange lights across Papua New Guinea since the past year, some of which had bee
reported by missionaries. In a letter written the day before his first sighting (but never seen sent), Rev. Gill told his friend Rev. David Durie that he believed UFOs were “more likely
form of electric phenomena or something brought about by the atom bomb explosions etc.”
After a lifetime of teaching and traveling, Rev. Gill passed away at the age of 79 on June 13, 2007.

The Secret KGB UFO Files, The Russian Crash of 1969
The details of a Russian Crash on or about 1969 are sketchy and somewhat suspect. This case comes from the socalled "Secret KGB Files," which were reportedly smuggled out of
former Soviet Union. Reportedly, $10,000 was paid for the information. The details of these secret files were first offered to the general public on 91398 as part of a TNT special t
"The Secret UFO Files of the KGB." The show featured extraordinary film and still photographs of the UFO recovery, and also a portion of autopsy film on part of an alien body.
The event itself, according to the files, occurred in the state of Sverdlovsky, which was formerly Yekatrinburg of the USSR. The crash story follows a familiar pattern normally asso
with this type of report. The fiery crash of an unknown object occurred in March 1969. The site was secured by the Russian military, and one dead alien was found in the wreckage.
remains of the craft and alien were brought to a secure location, and the alien body was autopsied. Both still and moving pictures were taken of the craft, its retrieval, and the alien
autopsy. The autopsy shows only an alien torso and arm. From the size of the body parts, the alien would have been an extremely small being.
The TNT special features Roger Moore, veteran actor and former James Bond, who discusses other UFO events, along with interviews with UFO experts, CIA agents, and other film
Probably the most notable footage is from MIG gun cameras of confrontations with UFOs. There have been only a few still frames of this footage in America, and I have not been a
of this writing, 11012002, to obtain the videos. The show itself is mediocre, and its only redeeming quality is the presentation of the UFO crash story. Supposedly, the crash story w
validated by secret KGB documents.
The footage at the crash site does seem to be authentic at least on several points. The truck in the film is a circa 1950 model ZIS151, which has not been used by the military for qui
some time, and the truck would have been difficult to find to stage a hoax with. Other elements of the film do not exhibit any obvious signs of a hoax, as to the movement of the sol
the timing of the film as to shadows, and the UFO itself.
There are also several documents shown to verify the event itself, and an eyewitness to the event who swears that the recovery mission did occur. The footage of the autopsy film sh
personnel without caps and gowns, which seemed odd to me at first, but after some research I found that this was commonplace for that era in Russia.
The furnishings in the room are acceptable, and in Russia have probably not changed much today. Three men in their 20's and 30's are performing the procedure, and one woman is
notes. The note taker is identified as KGB stenographer O. A. Pshonikina. The alien's torso and arm are lying together on the table as the autopsy is performed, and there are docum
shown to support the autopsy.
Although the USARussia relationship is much improved over a few years ago, it still lacks. Any information received is subject to translation, and often times there are problems w
interpretation. It is sad there is not more cooperation between the two countries. The case of the 1969 retrieval and autopsy are difficult to assess. Until more information is uncover
will remain unsubstantiated.
Russian UFO Crash

The Jaw dropping video below is from a UFO crash site allegedly filmed by the Russian KGB during March of 1969 in the Sverdlovsk region of Russia. The footage was later
obtained from the Russian Black Market by filmmakers who then published the documentary, "The Secret KGB UFO Files". Did an extraterrestrial spacecraft crash land in th
remote region of Russian farmland?
