Time: 1100A

The 4-year old witness was outside in the driveway of her house, which faced at an angle onto the street corner. All the driveways on the corner faced that way instead of straight out. She suddenly noticed a strange figure in the driveway of the house opposite to hers. It was about 6ft tall and was all in black. It had no arms that she could see and seemed to be pear-shaped with a large round head and long thin black legs. There was no face, only a glass-like face striated like a motorbike headlight. She thought that it was both queer and fascinating. It was at the same distance from that gate opposite as the witness was from her gate. The witness took a step towards it and it responded with a step. With each step the witness took, it seemed to copy the witness. But it seemed to be getting closer to the gate than the witness. The witness began to feel apprehensive at it stared at her with it's glass face. All of the sudden the witness was overtaken by fear and ran screaming into the house. Her mother went out to look around but did not see anything, the bizarre creature had vanished.

A young boy was playing in a wooded field when he caught sight of a silvery torpedo shaped craft in a clearing. Several four-foot tall humanoid figures stood next to the object. These were described as well built, wearing dark green close fitting coveralls. They had what appeared to be glossy black hair and seemed to be wearing dark wrap around visors. The beings seemed to be inspecting the craft and were moving about quickly.

Time: afternoon

The 16-year old main witness and his younger brother were resting and reading at a creek that ran near their home when suddenly they heard a hum, and saw a silvery metallic object with a dome on top land right in front of them. A door opened and 5 grotesque creatures emerged. These resembled praying mantises and wore dull silver body fitted covering. The main witness stood up as one creature came up to him, looked at him, & took the book from his hand. The creature then put his hand on the witness's shoulder and began reading his thoughts. The creature had large black eyes that appeared to emit a clicking sound. Soon the creature rejoined the others and they walked around the object as if inspecting it. The witness then heard a telepathic message telling him that they were leaving, not to look up. The object then shot up emitting a deafening noise. Both witnesses were extremely thirsty after the encounter.

Time: afternoon

The 12-year old witness was staying home alone one day when through an open window she spotted a small white oval shaped craft going over some nearby vineyards where there was no road. Moments later two men approached the house; these men were very short and wore white tight fitting garments. They asked for a glass of water and asked some very strange questions about the nature of time. That same night the two little men returned and told the witness to follow them, while her family slept. They led her to a round object, which had landed among the olive trees. She then apparently went through an in depth medical examination inside the object. During that time a normal looking woman with long dark hair was with her comforting and calming her. The witness feels that something was implanted in her.

Date: end of June 1947

Time: about midnight

18-year old local herdsman Alexey Romanovich Bodnya from a nearby collective farm suddenly noticed a brightly lit circle shining on the grass on the field, somehow resembling a micro-tornado. Next he heard a loud metal clicking sound and when he looked up he was stunned to see a disc-shaped object about 25 meters in diameter, it was bright and shaped like to deep saucers joined together, with a transparent dome on top 4 prop-like landing legs protruded from the bottom and moved up and down in rhythm. The disk had a wide cylinder shaped protrusion on its bottom that resembled a nozzle about 5 meters in diameter. A bright red-yellow rotating flame like light was visible inside it. The surface of the disk was silver, almost mirror like, reflecting the ground and grass beneath it. Powerful searchlights could be seen on the craft as it approached for a landing. The disk seemed to be unstable as if its flight control mechanism had been damaged, unable to maintain a horizontal position. The witness got the impression that the disk was going to tumble and crash, but it somehow managed to land safely. A ladder came out of the object and three aliens descended from the bottom section of the disk, when the round hatch opened Bodnya clearly heard metal clacking. The aliens were very tall, close to 3 meters in height. They looked very much alike almost like twins. Their faces were elongated, large eyes, rounder than the humans, long noses, high foreheads, grayish-bluish skin, and thin lips. They were dressed in silver reflecting tight-fitting overalls with head covering. One of the aliens was obviously the leader, he was gigantic in stature with broad shoulders, at least one meter taller than the other two aliens, he wore a sort of "apron" in front with a light on his breast area. He was apparently giving orders to the other two. The giant had even white teeth, wide dense brown, large beard, and light brown hair, light colored eyes and a powerful voice. One of the younger crewmembers was obviously in great distress as a result of their misfortune and was mumbling something and crying. In a harsh tone the giant leader ordered him to stop. The witness could not understand a thing but the meaning was obvious. The transparent dome on top of the disk was lifted up in order to initiate the repair procedure. While being opened a melodic vibrating sound was heard. The witness noticed that the transparent dome was made out of some crystalline substance, extremely strong in appearance. The witness was also sure that there was a fourth alien inside the disk, since the alien was leader gave orders to someone inside using some kind of "microphone". That fourth crewmember was possibly a female who remained onboard the craft at all times. All the aliens wore some type of sophisticated device suspended on their chest area. The leader stood in the center and the other two one on each side as they conducted the repairs. The stunned witness had observed the emergency landing and repair of the disk hiding behind some shrubs with his horse. Suddenly his horse snorted loudly this apparently gave away his location. The aliens immediately shone a green beam of light in his direction. He received a clear impression that he had been photographed. The aliens seemed very curious and seemed to be enjoying themselves, as they looked him and his horse over. After that the giant leader looked at straight at Bodnya's eyes and the 18-year old was suddenly able to hear the alien's thoughts. The alien leader reproached him for hiding from them instead of greeting them like guests. His glance displayed kindness and understanding. He informed Bodnya that their craft had apparently been damaged by a lighting strike that affected their flight control mechanism. Bodnya then said, "I invite you to eat, you must be hungry, I know what hunger is from my childhood." The alien responded, "I see, I see, you are small but brave, and who is that (pointing at the horse)." That's my horse Serko responded the witness. The alien then told the witness that he was frightened of the horse and to leave it behind since he wanted to speak to him alone. The boy roped his horse and the giant alien took him by his hands and sat him on the rim of the disk. Bodnya got so close to the alien that he was able to listen to it's heartbeat. Soon Bodnya noticed a wolf slowly approaching his horse and yelled at the leader, "Look a wolf" In a moment the leader stretched his hand and emitted some kind or thunderous beam that killed the wolf instantly. Where are you from? Asked Bodnya. The giant answered by pointing at the sky and said, "From there". Is there a God? Bodnya asked next, "A God? maybe" answered the giant, who then asked Bodnya what was he doing there alone. He explained to the giant that he had been pasturing the bulls and horses. Next Bodnya asked if he could look inside the craft, he was allowed to. Looking in he saw a long corridor leading inside the craft, some frame-like walls and noticed that the ceiling was very high. He walked several steps into the craft but felt intense heat and nausea and could not continue. The giant then said, "Come here" The boy then rushed back and fell on the alien's arms, he could not remember what happened next, he apparently lost consciousness and woke up again sitting on the grass looking at the repair operations. He was sure he had been examined onboard and implanted with some type of device. The rest of the night he watched the aliens finishing up their repairs. Bodnya noticed that the inner structure of the craft appeared very complicated filled with sophisticated equipment. After finishing their repairs the aliens left behind a small cross-shaped metallic fragment, which the witness buried on the edge of the field intending to dig it out in the future. Unfortunately he was never able to return to the site and eventually moved to the Crimea. The fragment apparently is still in the area now. The disk rose up and zoomed up to the sky at incredible speed disappearing from sight in a moment. Clear landing traces were left, observed by the other collective farmers whom he brought to visit the place the next day. He was threatened not to tell anyone of what he had seen. In 1990 while living in the hamlet of Molodezhnyi in the Crimea the witness one night was sitting down drinking tea when he was suddenly enveloped by the same green beam of light he had seen years earlier. At this point the witness was able to ensue telepathic contact with aliens, this was possible because he had been implanted with a small communications device in 1947. The aliens informed Bodnya that their planet was sterile and that they were vegetarians and that they had a base on the moon, which was covered with a transparent glass dome. They expressed contempt towards the human race and refused to reveal the location or name of their home planet. They confirmed to the witness that there was life after death and predictive coming catastrophes that would affect humanity. When Bodnya asked them why didn't they contact humanity openly, their curious answer was, "Why don't humans contact those in an insane asylum?"

Time: night

Five-year-old Percy Galloway reported seeing a movement in the sky. At first he thought it was a comet when it suddenly made a sharp right directly towards the witness and hovered about a foot above the ground 200' away from him. The witness stood his ground and did not run away. He described the object as circular, about 72' in diameter, with domes on top and bottom. It had a black matte finish. It emitted a soft musical tone type sound. At the same time a fog-like mist, danced around its circumference. After a moment a brilliant light burst from the craft towards the witness, which had to cover his eyes with his elbow. When he took a peek he saw a large square door that seemed to implode, and there before him, stood a tall, human looking man. He had platinum silver gray hair and very deep blue eyes and was dressed in white tights and a thin gold belt. He radiated a warm, benevolent feeling of love. He said, "Percy come to me." The witness did, carefully but unafraid. As he approached to within 20' of the man, he was convinced that he was kind, gentle and a loving person. He spoke to the witness without moving his lips and before he could form a question to ask him, he said, "Percy, we speak by means of telemetric---much like what you humans call telepathy." The stranger told Percy that as long as he was in his presence, he could speak to him the same way. Every time Percy tried to speak, his thoughts were read before he could mouth his words. Inside the craft, they walked down a cool, cave like hall. There was soft, white light everywhere but Percy could not tell where it was coming from. They entered a room in which 30 men worked on instruments. They did not notice them. Percy asked if he could go on ride on the craft. He was then taken to a control center where the man raised his hand in the air with the palm closed. The metal of the craft became as transparent as glass. The witness could see space. The man pointed to the planet Earth, which was about the size of a baseball. He told Percy that they were moving close to the speed of light and that they were going to move faster. He was taken to a special protective area of the craft due to the acceleration. He was placed in a room with a greenish blue light. He stood upright and although he could not move, he was aware of everything around him. A short time later they arrived at a mother ship, which was stationary at the edge of the solar system. The craft entered an opening in the mother ship. The crew and Percy left the small craft and were greeted by two human looking people. There were dozes of others present. As they walked down a hallway, Percy noticed three humans going the other way---a young white teenage girl, an old man, and a white male about 30-years old. They entered a room in which a ritual was about to start. Fifteen or twenty human looking men and women dressed in tight white pants and loose blouses stood in a circle. He felt that there was a leader present but he could not tell who he was. The participants stood with faces toward the ceiling, their eyes closed and palms opened outward. As Percy watched, each person's body took on a golden aura. The being then took Percy to another room. There he was offered white chips and crackers and a blue liquid to drink. Then he went to another room where he sat on high backed chair that looked like metal but was soft like cotton. A metal headset with two triangles on it was placed on his head. He was told that he would be able to read and understand what was on the viewing screens. The screen then lit up with images that moved at lighting speed. He saw medical data and formulas. It was like looking into the future. He was told that he would not remember anything---that it was a time capsule. Later he was returned to earth and while hovering 500' above the ground he was lowered to the ground within a blue beam of light.

The same day as the Kenneth Arnold sighting, a man driving down a remote rural road heard a loud humming sound and driving over a rise he saw on a nearby field a large disc shaped craft hovering six-feet off the ground. He could also see two short figures wearing green suits and white helmets standing right underneath the object. The figures suddenly vanished and the craft then shot towards the Columbia River, made a big circle then flew towards the mountains.

A man wrote the Nashville Tennesseean that as he was driving along a highway, a flying saucer landed on a flying field, and two strange little men, "all heads and arms and legs, and glowing like fireflies," emerged from it and exchanged greetings with him by sign language. The saucer finally took off in a cloud of dust.

Miss S was riding her motor scooter when she saw an object in the road ahead. When she got within 100 yards she saw that it was an oval, about 10 ft long & 5 ft high, and that two little beings, only 3 ft tall, dressed in gray with gray headgear, were busied about it. When she sounded her horn, they rushed back into the object through an opening 20" in diameter; it rose 100 yards, oscillating, and departed like an arrow. It made no sound.

22-year old Andrew Cherry waited at his usual bus stop close to St Johns School in Baileyfield Road. Glancing skywards, he caught sight of a strange object, disc-shaped with what looked like a large glass dome in the style of an observation window. The UFO was hovering about 300 ft above the ground, close enough for Cherry to get a clear view of its humanoid occupant. The "alien" was wearing dark clothes and was sitting or standing beside a control panel of some kind. He also noted the marked metal texture of the spacecraft---"like rough diamonds"----and the orange yellow color, which he thinks was simply a reflection of the sun's rays. The area around the object looked hazy, possibly owing to the object's energy source. Cherry could hear a low, smooth hum, which he associated with the flames he could see escaping from the disc. The object suddenly tilted, spun away and disappeared over the Fife coast in a matter of seconds.

Date: July 4 1947

Time: unknown

Close to the eastern border of White Sands missile test range a large lenticular disc-shaped craft, 99 ft in diameter, with a dome on top and a small rim, crashed. US radars tracked it for a long time; it was flying very slowly, apparently the pilots died out of decompression long before the disk crashed. 5 short aliens, all dead, were found at the site. There was a small hole in one of the portholes. The craft was moved to Muroc AFB and later to Wright Patterson and moved to Hangar 18. The aliens were about 1.0m-1.2m in height, gray type with 3 webbed fingers, lizard-like skin, which was originally bluish-gray-green in color but the color was distorted since all were badly charred. Their origin was later established as star MD-5015 on top of Cassiopeia Constellation, 60 light years away. Several other craft from that same civilization have also crashed.

According to Gerald Anderson when he was 5 years of age, him and several other family members were out rock hunting in the desert area, when they came upon a gully near a shallow arroyo and saw an object that appeared to have impacted on a small slope. Curious, himself and his cousin walked towards it and noticed that one side of it seemed to have been ripped open, there was a lot of debris scattered around. They also saw four apparent occupants of the craft. One was sitting next to it and was apparently alive. Soon other witnesses arrived; some were college students from an Eastern university. But soon several armed military personnel arrived, these made threats to all those present and made them leave the area. The beings were described as wearing two tone gray uniform like outfits and small in stature. They had slightly lager heads than humans and huge bluish eyes; their skin was very pale. The hands were also long and slender. Two of the beings were apparently dead, one injured and the fourth was alive and appeared terrified. No sound was heard coming from them. This is probably one of the several crash retrieval incidents that occurred in the same area about the same time.
