Event 45731 (375842A3)
Date: 11/3/1985
Location: USSR, Vladivostok
Description: (Translated from French) Statement of a fisherman: Around 8:30 PM, after a fishing trip “by lights” on the Razdolnaya River, when the “Vikhr” engine of my boat “Dniepr” stopped. It immediately started again and I was then navigating slowly. That’s when a luminous object was coming, much faster than an airplane, from the north to the south. It had the aspect of a star, but bigger, and it was projecting a beam towards the ground. The beam had a great length, yet it didn’t reach the ground, it stopped in mid-air. When the object was getting closer, the engine of the boat stopped again. I pulled the starter cord after checking the fuel level. The engine started again, but then there was a glow at the base of the coil that lasted about 7 seconds, before the engine suddenly stopped, all at once, without slowing down. At that moment the UFO was above us. It was moving away towards the south and my companion A. Khripunov and I thought it was an artificial satellite. Above Vladivostok, the beam coming out of it went out and our observation ended there. The engine of the boat wouldn’t start again, so we rowed towards the shore, but the wind and the current pushed us to the opposite shore. We had spare candles, but we couldn’t get the engine to turn. We rowed in the hope of meeting other boats. It was 9 AM before that happened. Those people gave us candles, but there was still nothing to do. It was 3:45 PM when we arrived, after rowing, in Vladivostok.

Event 45732 (F8E3CEEB)

Location: Vladivostok, Primorsky Krai, Russia
Description: 8:30 p.m. Two men in a small vessel in the waters off Vladivostok, Primorsky Krai, Russia, notice a high- altitude object in the north looking a bit larger than a star, rapidly moving toward them. It sends a beam of light to earth at a sharp angle, although the beam does not reach the ground. As the UFO approaches the boat its engine stops. The captain restarts the engine, but it dies again when the object is overhead. The UFO moves off toward the city and disappears. The men use oars to return to shore.

Event 45770 (6961DD34)
Date: 12/23/1985
Locations: Las Palmas; Arrecife; Canary Islands
Description: 3:10 a.m. The merchant ferry Manuel Soto, owned by Transmediterránea Company, is sailing from Las Palmas to Arrecife in the Canary Islands when the third officer on duty sees a light on the horizon ahead. Initially he identifies it as the star Antares but soon realizes the position is wrong. He takes measurements of its height and azimuth. It remains in the same spot for 15 minutes, after which it begins moving quickly. Other crew members see the light approaching the ship and reaching the zenith 2 minutes later. The object’s outline does not resemble an airplane or helicopter, and it has an intense white light at its center, a weaker red light near it, and another soft light set apart. The object is flying low and silently.

Event 45773 (4ECFB157)
Date: 12/26/1985
Location: New York Psychiatric Institute
Description: Night. Novelist Whitley Strieber undergoes a bizarre UFO abduction in his cabin in upstate New York. After he is awakened by a peculiar noise, he opens his eyes to see a small, inhuman creature rushing toward his bed. The next thing he knows it is morning, and he is feeling disoriented and angry but can’t tell why. Later, the full story of missing time, terrifying flashbacks, and intrusive examinations by entities he calls the “visitors” unfolds under the direction of Budd Hopkins in hypnosis sessions by Donald Klein of the New York Psychiatric Institute beginning in March 1986. Strieber tells the story in his 1987 book Communion.

Event 45775 (1F1241A1)
Date: 12/27/1985
Location: USA, New York State
Description: (Translated from French) Whitley Strieber (author of horror, science fiction, and ufology novels) had set off a sophisticated alarm system around 11 PM before going to bed. He was awoken in the early morning by a strange noise, as if several people were in the ground floor room. The alarm had not gone off. A silhouette then rushed into the bedroom. The other conscious memory he had was of being sat in the woods outside his house. By piecing together conscious memories with those collected under hypnosis, it was learned that Strieber had floated in a “dark little iron bed” from his house to aboard a UFO. There, in a disordered room, he encountered four different species, a small robot-like one, a short one wearing workman’s blue, and two others about 5 feet tall and very thin, one with slanted, black eyes and the other with black eyes like buttons… [note from vog: hmm? Wasn’t it specified that he is an author of horror and fiction novels?]

Description: NORAD technical intelligence works on 813 initial Unknown targets this year (whittled down quickly from an even greater number of Uncorrelated Targets). Nearly two-thirds are pursued by fighter interceptors and more than one-third of the scrambled cases are successfully intercepted and identified. Almost half of the total are identified by further Air Traffic Control correlation, leaving 123 Remaining Unknowns at the end of the year. This is reduced further in early 1987 to 87 “Not Identified” REMs by additional intelligence correlation analysis, leaving roughly 10% of the initial amount unidentified.

Event 45805 (8850DD88)
Date: 1/15/1986
Description: At around seven p.m. the witness was walking home on Wiktorska Street in Mokotow, Poland when he saw a dull metallic bowl-shaped flying object descend and land in a vacant field between two buildings. Moments later a hatch slid open from the top of the object and a woman dressed in black came out. The man felt compelled mentally to go with the woman, who took him inside the UFO. it was very bright inside the craft and he saw two men wearing dark tight-fitting overalls with hoods. He was ordered to lie down on a table, and at this point he lost consciousness. He later awoke standing at the door outside of his house with no recollection of what happened in between.

Description: (Translated from French) Approximately 200 people were able to see two triangular objects pass slowly and silently. “There was like a main cluster of lights at the front having a bit of a zeppelin shape, followed by a group of lights in a triangle”. Another witness said “We stopped playing (football) to look at it, we couldn’t understand why the lights were so far apart. The object was maybe at a height of 200 or 300 m and must have had a wingspan of 90 m. And it made no noise”.

Event 45819 (94C2518F)
Date: 1/29/1986
Locations: Dalnegorsk, Primorsky Krai, Russia; Height 611 (also known as Mount Izvestkovaya); Tunguska event
Description: 7:50 p.m. Inhabitants of Dalnegorsk, Primorsky Krai, Russia, see a reddish ball about half the size of the full moon. The ball is flying soundlessly parallel to the ground. It is later determined that its speed is approximately 34 mph and that it is about 2,300–2,625 feet in altitude. When the object reaches Height 611 (also known as Mount Izvestkovaya) it starts to descend and then crashes into the hill. All witnesses but one agree there is no sound when the object reaches the ground. Some say the object falls with a flash and is not visible after that; others claim it oscillates at altitude above the hill, radiating light of varying intensity as it goes up and down. The light given off by the object is described by some as a forest fire, which lasts for approximately one hour. A scientific team led by Valery Dvuzhilny, head of the Far Eastern Commission for Anomalous Phenomena, arrives on the site on February 3. Some rocks at the impact site have drops of silvery metal, which are later determined to be lead. The type of lead found on Height 611 is different from lead found in local lead deposits. Also, black, glassy, drop-shaped beads and mesh fragments are found at the site. In all, approximately 70 grams of lead, 5 grams of mesh fragments, and 40 grams of beads are discovered. The radiation level of the landing ground is normal. Photos of the site using two different cameras all develop as blank. Chemical analyses of the beads show they are mostly composed of lead, silicon, and iron. Some of the drops contain significant amounts of zinc, bismuth, and rare earth elements. An analysis of the soil, rocks, and burned wood taken from the landing ground shows that the chemical composition is similar to the composition of samples taken from the site of the 1908 Tunguska event. The mesh fragments are also analyzed; the material does not dissolve in strong acids and organic solvents, even when exposed to high temperatures for prolonged periods of time. One of the mesh fragments is discovered to be composed of scandium, gold, lanthanum, sodium, and samarium. An analysis of another mesh fragment shows gold, silver, and nickel. After that fragment is heated in a vacuum, the analysis no longer shows these elements; however, molybdenum and rhenium are detected. The concentration of gold found in one of the mesh fragments is equivalent to 1,100 grams per metric ton. This is much higher than gold deposits in the region, which become economic to extract when the concentration of gold reaches 4 grams per metric ton. There are no gold deposits in Dalnegorsk that contain gold at concentrations high enough to extract.

Event 45820 (525EA53D)
Date: 1/29/1986
Description: In Dal’negorsk, Vladivostok, Russia in eastern Asia a red fireball flew parallel to the ground with an estimated speed of 15 meters per second, leaving no wake or trail. At 7:55 p.m. it dove silently into the slope ofHill 611 (a mountain 611 meters in height), then jumped up-and-down six times. A very bright light, like flames from a welding torch, was observed coming from the mountain for an hour, then the red ball of light took off. Traces at the site included a fine, glassy metallic fabric debris, lead and iron pellets, and magnetic anomalies. Temperature at the crash site was estimated to have been as high as 25,000 deg C.

Description: (Translated from French) (Source: journal “La tercera de la Hora” from Santiago, Chile of 13.3.1986; transmitted by: Jorge Anfruns to Cufon) In the early hours of the morning, the spectacular event of the landing of a squadron of UFOs in front of several witnesses, was broadcast live by a local radio station. Four huge UFOs, with one side a huge white light and the other side a red light, these lights coming out of sort of windows, descended from the sky to land on the side of a hill. The radio reporter spoke live from the observation site, while the Cordoba radio station had just interrupted its normal broadcast at 03:10 GMT to broadcast the news. A few minutes later, the radio station from La Cruz, 5 km from Uritorco, did the same. The reporter said that one of the objects, already on the ground, rose and flew over the spectators, to the point that people were scared. The UFOs remained on the ground for several hours and until 11:15 GMT there were news live from reporters who remained at a reasonable distance for observation.

The evening match, at the “Petroperu” stadium, was immediately interrupted. “We saw the wide beams of green light coming from the front part. The object itself was irradiated with yellow light, it was as bright as in broad daylight” said Donaldo Duque, the referee between the local teams Alamo and Casa Gin. It was around 8:05 pm when the phenomenon appeared, but its appearance lasted only 10 seconds.

Description: (Translated from French) (Source: newspaper “La tercera de la Hora” of 25.3.86) In the border region of Corrientes Province with Chile, more than a dozen farmers saw a saucer land. They spoke with the “occupants”. One of the witnesses, Rito Melgarejo, explained to the Telam agency how the UFO landed, blinding him with its powerful lights. Two occupants came out, they looked like small Martians (note of vog???) and spoke to him in a language he did not understand, making signs with their hands. “I replied that I did not understand anything, and by the time I turned around, they were already gone”. This sudden departure is confirmed by the other witnesses. Rito Melgarejo says he has had terrible headaches since these entities spoke to him, four days earlier. The Telam agency reports that there is a trace of 6 m in diameter of burned grass.
