1952: Unknown Date UFO|UAP & Entity Sightings Archive
Not every 1952 report comes with a firm date attached. This page collects the cases from that year’s record where only the year itself survives — a cigar-shaped object rising from an Italian river, an unidentified track over North Korea, and a run of humanoid and entity encounters spanning California, Brazil, Wales, Japan, Mexico, France, and Sweden that couldn’t be pinned to a specific day.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Year’s Loose Ends
This page exists for exactly what its title says — 1952 cases where only the year itself is firmly established. Most of the entries here are humanoid and entity encounters already documented as their own standalone reports, spanning six countries across three continents. Of the few raw entries, the Francavilla, Italy river sighting is the most complete, while Riverside, California and the North Korea case survive only as bare location references with no further detail in the sourced record.
“An obscure cigar-shaped object… coming out of the river, staying on the surface of the water, and then taking off.”
— Fisherman’s account, Francavilla, Italy, 1952
