1953 - A UFO that first appeared saucer-shaped, but revealed itself to be cigar-shaped when it tilted, darted all over the sky over Inverness, Scotland at 2:00 p.m. (Source: Loren E. Gross, UFOs: A History. 1953: January-February, p. 84).

1957 - Three bright disc-shaped objects were seen flying over Burbank, California at 7:00 p.m. They searched the sky with light beams, then they rose vertically in departure.

1967 - A witness driving alone at 10:55 p.m. between Ashington and Peg's Wood, Northumberland, England felt a prickly feeling as he sighted a UFO nearby. There was heavy static on the car radio simultaneous with the sighting. (Source: Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving Vehicle Interference, case 186, citing CONTACT (UK)).

1967 - The engine and headlights of a pickup truck failed simultaneously in Big Fork, Montana at around ten o'clock in the evening. The witnesses stepped out of the vehicle and saw a blue-green light overhead, which changed to a reddish-orange color. They felt a great deal of heat. As the light moved away to the right side of the road, the engine of the truck re-started by itself.

2003 - A police crime scene technician in Seattle, Washington was driving home from a crime scene at 2:30 a.m. when it started to rain. His car suddenly began making weird noises and the car radio turned on automatically, scanning through numerous stations at a rate of one a second. Lights inside and outside the car were also flashing. When he looked up he saw a huge triangular-shaped object above the car. In a few seconds blinding blue lights distracted the witness. The next thing he remembers all action suddenly stopped, and his car was parked on the side of the road with everything switched off. When he looked at his watch it was 3:03 a.m. He had lost track of 33 minutes of time. He turned his car engine on and drove back to his office.

2004, Jordanow, Poland - At one o'clock in the morning Mrs. K. J., age 77, awoke and went to the bathroom and then back to her bedroom. As she passed through the kitchen she was surprised to see a strong fiery orange light outside, floating in the sky. She realized it couldn't be the moon. The light was hemisphere shaped, with a flat bottom and round top. The light had an apparent size 2-3 times larger than the full moon. The light hung over the forest on Hajdowka Hill, 1.5 kilometers from her house. She watched it for about five minutes and started to feel so she went back to bed. During the night she had a disturbing "dream" about meeting with a huge shiny "thing". She awoke feeling very frightened, around 6:30 a.m. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 2004, citing Robert K Lesniakiewicz).
