The wore helmets of a metallic cloth. They gave him the message that humans should desist with H-bomb testing. They left in a UFO shaped like a spinning top, about 80 feet in diameter. The object hovered with a ten-foot wide cylindrical section that connected with the ground. (Source: Hulvio Brant Aleixo, FSR, November-December, p. 11).
1964 - On a farm in Cofico, near Salta, Argentina a saucer-shaped object touched down briefly at 9:00 p.m. It stood on a kind of cylindrical pillar, giving out a blinding light. Near it the witness, Mr. Dagota, got a blured glimpse of two figures moving about. (Source: David F.

1966 - On this night in Harlingen, Texas near Kelly Air
Force Base Mr. Morrison, a father of four, was propped up in bed when
he saw a small person, 3.5 to four feet tall, dressed in white tight-fitting
clothing, enter his son's bedroom. About ten minutes later he saw something
like "a bar of light, which appeared to crumble." The boys and their mother
had not seen anyone enter the bedroom, but they had seen the bar of light.

1973 - Ms. Brown, age 52, saw a silvery metallic sphere at 20 degrees elevation in the sky while driving between Snyder and Big Springs, Texas during a rainstorm at around four p.m. It was the apparent size of the full moon, and had a band around the middle with diamond shapes that did not appear to be windows. It was doing a slow yo-yo, up-and-down motion, and it made no sound that could be heard. (Source: John F. Schuessler, MUFON Field Investigator Case Files).

1997 - Following an encounter with a strange looking humanoid the evening before, the next morning the same two boys in Cordenons, Italy along with two other friends went into the woods where they last saw the creature. About 50 meters away, among some bushes, the boys saw a round hairless head that was whitish and extremely wrinkled in appearance. Terrified, the boys fled the area, but soon returned armed with a camera and a pair of binoculars. They were soon overcome with a strange malaise and headache. They saw the humanoid again, who they described as about 90 cm in height, dirty-white in color and with very long arms. It had three-digit hands that ended in ball-shaped tips. Its head was oval shaped and devoid of any facial expressions. The head seemed pointed on top and had a very pointed chin. Its most prominent feature was its huge black, oval-shaped eyes. Its mouth was but a thin line and its nose was just two small round holes. Its skin appeared gelatinous and corrugated or wrinkled. They didn't see any sexual organs. The boys left quickly. The creature was seen briefly next day in the same woods, but it scurried away into the bushes when the witness approached. (Source: Albert S.
