Cash-Landrum incident. The Cash-Landrum Incident was a reported Unidentified Flying Object sighting from the United States in 1980, which witnesses insist was responsible for damage to their health.
It is one of very few UFO cases to result in civil court proceedings. It can be classified as a Close Encounter of the Second Kind, due to its reported physical effects on the witnesses and their automobile. Skeptical ufologist Peter Brookesmith wrote: "To ufologists, the case is perhaps the most baffling and frustrating of modern times, for what started with solid evidence for a notoriously elusive phenomenon petered out in a maze of dead ends, denials, and perhaps even official deviousness. Incident[edit] At about 9.00 p.m., while driving on an isolated two-lane road in dense woods, the witnesses said they observed a light above some trees.
Alien abduction. An illustration of an alien spacecraft, tractor-beaming a human victim.
The terms alien abduction or abduction phenomenon describe "subjectively real memories of being taken secretly against one's will by apparently nonhuman entities and subjected to complex physical and psychological procedures".[1] People claiming to have been abducted are usually called "abductees"[2] or "experiencers".
Typical claims involve being subjected to a forced medical examination that emphasizes their reproductive system.[5] Abductees sometimes claim to have been warned against environmental abuse and the dangers of nuclear weapons.[6] While many of these claimed encounters are described as terrifying, some have been viewed as pleasurable or transformative. Overview[edit] Mainstream scientists reject claims that the phenomenon literally occurs as reported. However, there is little doubt that many apparently stable persons who report alien abductions believe their experiences were real. History[edit] Dr. Height 611 UFO incident.

Rogers decides to go back to the spot to retrieve Walton, but he is nowhere to be found.

(October 21, 1926 – presumably died November 23, 1953) was a United States Air Force pilot who mysteriously disappeared while pursuing an unidentified flying object over Lake Superior in 1953. This is sometimes known as The Kinross Incident, after Kinross Air Force Base, where Moncla was on temporary assignment when he disappeared. The U.S. Air Force reported that Moncla had crashed and that the "unknown" object was a misidentified Royal Canadian Air Force aircraft. Unidentified flying object. Photograph of an alleged UFO in New Jersey, taken on July 31, 1952 An unidentified flying object, or UFO, in its most general definition, is any apparent anomaly in the sky that is not identifiable as a known object or phenomenon.
Such anomalies may later be identified, but depending on the evidence or lack of evidence, such an identification may not be possible generally leaving the anomaly unexplained. While stories of unexplained apparitions have been told since antiquity, the term "UFO" (or "UFOB") was officially created in 1953 by the United States Air Force (USAF) to serve as a catch-all for all such reports.
It was stated that a "UFOB" was "any airborne object which by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features, does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or which cannot be positively identified as a familiar object. " Terminology. Bruce Cathie. Bruce Leonard Cathie (1930 – 2 June 2013) was a New Zealand airline pilot who wrote seven books related to flying saucers and a "World energy grid".
Cathie claimed that he first saw a flying saucer over the Manukau Harbour, Auckland in 1952 and in discussions with other airline pilots discovered this wasn't uncommon.[1] José Bonilla Observation. One of Bonilla's photographs.
On August 12, 1883, the astronomer José Bonilla reported[1] that he saw more than 300 dark, unidentified objects crossing before the sun while observing sunspot activity at Zacatecas Observatory in Mexico. He was able to take several photographs, exposing wet plates at 1/100 second. Although it was subsequently suggested that the objects were actually high flying geese, Bonilla is usually given the distinction of having taken the earliest photo of an unidentified flying object,[2] with some ufological literature interpreting the objects as either alien spacecraft or an unsolved mystery. New research conducted by National Autonomous University of Mexico suggests that the unidentified objects may have been fragments of a billion-ton comet passing within a few hundred kilometers of Earth.[3][4]
