Summary: The main witness had seen for the past 2 months numerous slow flying UFOs and strange lights over the area. That night she woke up to go to the bathroom and noticed that the electricity was out in the house. She felt a breeze coming from the kitchen area and walked down the hallway calling for her husband. He came to her and stepped around her to shut the kitchen window. She then heard a sound similar to a sewing machine, she turned around and saw the figure of a “feminine appearing” man with small rounded narrow shoulders, a thin head and thick turtle like neck. She could not make out any eyes, legs, or arms. The next thing she remembered was floating through the air over the cornfields behind her house. The last thing she was able to recall was a large whitish discs shaped object with a dome on top hovering above the cornfield. She remembers floating up into the object through an “ultra violet” type of light, her memory then ended.

Summary: Obeying some kind of inner urge Manuel Rodriguez Ramirez, his wife and two young sons drove to an isolated road where mysterious phenomena had been reported before. As they drove along, their car, a Seat suddenly stopped without any apparent cause. The car would not start so all the occupants exited the vehicle; before they did they applied the emergency brakes to it. They also placed two large rocks behind the rear tires since the car was in a kind of incline. Suddenly while they discussed the situation among themselves a strange figure appeared to their left on the middle of the road. The figure was totally dressed in black, and moved slowly towards the witnesses at the same time asking them “Where are you going? Terrified the witnesses could only stammer that they were headed to the nearby mountain. The figure was easily over 2 meters in height, gigantic in proportions. He remained quite and standing still, staring at the witnesses. When he spoke he did so in clear Spanish. At this point all the witnesses began experiencing an uncommon sense of fear, as their minds appeared being probed. The family began walking away and passed very near the huge humanoid, seconds later as they looked back the bizarre figure had already vanished. Still afraid they then walked back to their vehicle and this time they were able to start it without any problems. While sitting in the vehicle they all noticed a very bright light descend from the nearby mountain and apparently land on a field. They again exited the vehicle and began looking at the landed light. As they looked the light suddenly turned off. A few minutes later as they stood there they saw their vehicle suddenly come rolling towards them. Apparently the vehicle was moving on its own accord, but in a very strange way, as if floating just above the ground. Stunned they watched the vehicle suddenly stop on its tracks. The family then hesitantly entered their vehicle again. As they drove away they encountered a local friend, Juan Pino, who had also been in the area and had seen a suspicious very bright light hovering over the area.

The witness had gone to bed that night and suddenly awoke on a stainless steel table with a sheet covering most of her body. The room she was in was round and well lighted. She was then examined by several beings described as very thin with cinnamon colored skin, small ears and noses, with large black slanted eyes. The beings began touching her upper abdominal and solar plexus area with small fingernail less fingers. The witness felt that these beings were good and with friendly intentions. Later she remembered floating back to her bed and waking up with a start.

The witness was sleeping at a hostel dormitory with many others when a voice woke him up telling him that he was going to be taken onboard an object. A small craft then entered the room apparently passing right through the wall. A beam of light shone on him and he was apparently then reduced in size and lifted up into the object, which left at high speed. Inside the craft he saw a lighted circular chamber and was able to see stars through an opened porthole. In the center of the room there was a screen showing a constellation and stars. Seated at the screen was a blond young woman. She spoke to him and took him to a large launching area where many objects of different shapes and sizes were parked near a control tower. Later he was returned from where he had been taken from.

The witness was again sleeping when he heard a voice inviting him inside an object. He was lifted up and taken onboard a craft through a porthole. Inside he met two “normal” Chinese girls and the blond woman from the previous encounter. They were shown a screen where they saw a series of images showing different periods of Chinese history, concluding with a view of the earth as it used to be. They landed at the “launching” area where he saw numerous human like beings. He found himself being transported through the air and then placed on a slab where he was given a detailed physical examination. He was later returned.

Summary: The witness was sleeping when he felt somebody push him. He opened his eyes and saw a strange man standing in front of him. The man was covered completely with short gray hairs and had two long fangs in his mouth. The being waved an arm and the witness floated up into the air and into a landed object outside the house. The witness was then taken to a large base where he saw many similar hairy beings that appeared to be engaged in repairing landed UFOs. While the witness was being brought back to his home a blond girl who he had previously encountered asked him several questions and he was also allowed to ask some himself.

Time: various
Summary: Cosmonauts Savinykh and Kozlenok observed a strange object from their space station. At first the object was 1/2 mile away but it eventually approached to a distance to 300 feet. Inside the cosmonauts saw three brown skin beings with slanted bright blue eyes. straight noses and bushy eyebrows. At a distance of 100 feet, the witnesses thought that the beings resembled mechanical robots. The beings facial expressions remained quite emotionless. The beings onboard the object requested close contact with the Soviet craft but this request was denied. Their craft shifted around erratically and from time to time it would vanish, but then reappear in an instant. Their craft seemed to be metallic, but it had no doors no solar batteries, no optical systems, no antennae and no marks or writing of any kind, it was spherical with eight windows and 16 other strange transparent illuminated spheres arranged throughout the hull. The cosmonauts also noticed quite normal looking armchairs, some devices, and walls inside the craft. Using a pair of powerful binoculars the cosmonauts saw the beings showing them what appeared to have been a star map.
