Event 48465 (95042668)
Date: 5/15/1991
Description: On this afternoon a short green humanoid with red oval-shaped eyes and huge pointed ears was spotted on the grounds of the local elementary school in Mini Mini, Puerto Rico. It apparently tried to communicate with one of the children from the kindergarten class. It spoke to the child in a “chatter” type of language, but ran off quickly into the bushes when some other children approached. Later that afternoon, two boys were playing in the area close to the earlier encounter when they heard a noise and saw the same or similar strange being emerge from the woods. They described him as short and bright green in color. He had an oval head with large almond-shaped eyes and huge pointed ears. He was thin with very long arms, and hands with only three digits on them. The being stood looking at the boys, emitting a strange “chatter” like noise. The boys threw fruit at it and then chased it, but it ran quickly and disappeared down an aqueduct. At one point the creature caused one of the boys to fall down by grabbing him by the foot.

Event 48468 (31FA11BF)
Date: 5/17/1991
Location: Braine l’Alleud, Belgium
Description: 1:30 a.m. A nurse in Braine l’Alleud, Belgium, hears an intense hum and looks out her window to see a large triangular object moving slowly overhead. At the front of the triangle, there is a group of lights located symmetrically along the edges. They are grouped toward the front point of the triangle. At least four of these lights are white and flickering quickly, with approximately two lights on the left and on the right flickering each second, but never reproducing the same sequence. She thinks there is also a steady red light. Slightly back from the central axis, she sees a ray of light, inclined on 45°, coming from an opening that is larger than the diameter of the flickering lights. This beam projects to the ground onto the street, and traced a brief series of figure 8s. Suddenly, after 5 seconds the UFO instantly reappears far away, its blinking lights (but not the ray) still visible.

Alvaro Fernández Rodas, head of the Flight Safety Section of the Spanish Air Staff (where the UFO archives are kept), issues an Informative Note to the Chief of Staff of the Air Force Gen. Ramón Fernández Sequieros titled “The UFO Archive and Its Possible Release.” The note is the result of meetings between Vicente- Juan Ballester Olmos, who is developing a catalog of UFO observations by military personnel and police officers; Maj. Ramón Alvarez Mateus, head of the Air Force Public Relations Office; and the Flight Safety Section. It mentions that no investigations have been made since 1980 and that since 1988 cases are not even archived. The note recommends that UFO cases be declassified.

Event 48481 (BCF94D42)
Date: 6/1991
Description: (Translated from French) The Deep See, a well-equipped submersible, searches for traces of Spanish galleons sunk off the coast of Miami. In their place, it discovers 5 bombers from World War II, lined up on the ocean floor. One of the planes bore the same serial number and call sign as the leader of Flight 19, which had left its base on December 5 1945 and had never returned. The most skeptical then cite this example as a classic case of a pseudomystery invented from scratch by clumsy and sensationalist investigators. The fate of Flight 19 seems then partly explained. But why did two compasses, which had just been subjected to conformity tests, simultaneously fail? In fact, despite the discovery of the Deep See, the exact position of the 5 bombers remains a mystery, because finally, the 5 planes spotted by the treasure hunters were not the Avengers of Flight 19. The site turned out to be an old exercise area, where planes had been regularly sunk between 1943 and 1945. The US Navy revealed that Lieutenant Taylor’s aircraft bore the same serial number as an aircraft that had sunk in the waters of the Bermuda Triangle well before he undertook this mission. (June)

Event 48495 (714160ED)
Date: 6/8/1991
Locations: Asunción, Paraguay; Concepción; Asunción Airport
Description: 6:00 p.m. Pilot Cesar Escobar and Copilot Angel David Farina are flying two passengers to Asunción, Paraguay, in his Cessna 210. While monitoring airport frequencies near Concepción, he overhears a conversation between the control tower and a Líneas Aéreas Paraguayas airliner, with the pilot reporting a brightly lit object approaching on a convergent course. The object is also showing on airport radar. He hears the pilot exclaim as the UFO speeds past. A few minutes later, Escobar sees a bright, blue-white light approaching on his right side. Just then radar control radios to ask if he has traffic on his right, and he replies affirmatively. The object paces his plane for 25 minutes within about 1,300 feet. Its intense light tends to conceal its exact shape, but it appears to be oval. Several times it moves in closer, as if playing a game, and Escobar becomes frightened. When it approaches, his instruments go crazy, including his automatic direction finder, which drifts around aimlessly. As he begins descending into Asunción Airport at 7:22 p.m., the object stops following and hovers. Anibal Gavigan, the air traffic control specialist on duty, is called by radar control and informed that a strange object has followed the Cessna 210 into the airport. He is asked if he can see it, and he can see the luminous object. After the Cessna lands, the airport lights are turned off to better identify the glowing object, which remains motionless over the field. At one point a luminous, yellow ray briefly shoots from the object to the western horizon. When it departs, the object accelerates so rapidly that it disappears after one sweep of the radar scope.

Description: At around 6 p.m. the two witnesses had gone into the woods outside the Gainesville Job Corps Center in Gainesville, Florida. As they were walking towards a campsite, one of the men stopped and claimed to have seen two “werewolf” like beings float by. The other witness did not see this. They continued walking until they spotted a saucer-shaped object on the ground. They advanced towards the object slowly when it suddenly disappeared. An uncontrollable fear then took hold of them and they began running away from the area. One of the men looked over his shoulder to see a tall, dark, large-headed being wearing a dark robe with its hand folded in front of it. The men did not stop and did not return to the area.

Event 48502 (296DE7EF)
Date: 6/16/1991
Location: Great Britain, Rushton, Staffs.
Description: (Translated from French) (Investigation by Doug Pickford of the “Green Dragon” ufology group of Staffordshire) The testimony comes from a well-known entrepreneur in the region and he insists on the strictest anonymity. In the evening this witness was returning from Chester from a business dinner where he had only drunk coffee. He was returning home by quiet secondary roads from Congleton to Leek, near Rushton, north of Rudyard Lake, when the effects of so much coffee drunk during the evening forced him to stop to relieve himself. It was 1:30 in the morning and he was near Bridestones - with its standing stones. He had no interest in archaeology and had never visited these places, although he knew they existed. The sky was still quite clear and he could clearly see the silhouettes of the standing stones from his stopping place. However, above them shone a light, like a giant torch, which illuminated the whole area. For a moment he wondered if he should go and take a closer look, but then a shower of golden sparks like those of a firework appeared, so he thought there were probably drugged people there and it was better to withdraw. He returned to his car, but it would not start: the engine seemed dead. He tried again and again, nothing worked. So he got out with the intention of lifting the hood, but at that moment he saw that the light above the menhirs, in the form of a golden ball, came towards him. He watched this ball with a certain surprise mixed with fear. The light passed over him with such intensity that it hurt his eyes. He lost all consciousness. He came to himself, lying on the ground, under a group of trees, about 600 meters from the road and the place where the car was. He was extremely disoriented and was aware of only two things: when the light was closest, he started running in a panic of fear. Through the brambles, hurting himself cruelly on the thorns, and hitting a tree full on. When he had the courage to look up, the luminous object had disappeared and the region was calm. It was then that he realized his state: he was still wearing his trousers, but no shirt or shoes. Automatically he rubbed the trousers, full of dust, and golden sparks fell from them, like static electricity. The return journey to the car, less precipitous, was still as painful through the bushes and brambles. He found the car, door open, key in the ignition, and on the ground, a small bundle: his shirt and shoes. He put them on and had a feeling as if they were very hot. He desperately hoped the engine would start: it did, on the first try. The dashboard clock showed that it was now 03:05… When he arrived home, he explained his delay to his wife as being caused by a road accident. He did not want to talk to her about the event. Knowing Doug for fifteen years, and knowing he was involved in ufology, he finally confided in him, making him swear not to divulge anything that could lead to his identification.

Event 48503 (636CE330)
Date: 6/16/1991
Location: The Bridestones, Cheshire, England
Description: 1:30 a.m. A businessman stops by the side of the road to relieve himself near The Bridestones, Cheshire, England, a Neolithic site with standing stones. He sees a golden beam of light above the stones from which emerges a shower of sparks. He returns to the car, but the engine will not start. He begins to run away when a large, glowing ball heads from the sparks straight toward him. It is so bright that it causes pain in his eyes and he feels rooted to the spot. He blacks out and regains his senses several hundred yards away from his car. He is naked above the waist and his shoes are missing. As he tries to get up, he brushes down his trousers and finds that they are charged with static electricity, causing sparks to jump from his body. After staggering around, he finds his car with the keys still in the ignition. Next to the door are his shoes and shirt, folded on the ground and warm to the touch. The car starts without trouble and he drives away, realizing that it is now 3:05 a.m.

Base personnel were around the craft wearing suits, climbing on top of the craft. The report he saw was a technical description for the AMC and ATIC that recorded dimensional, material and structural specifications and radar data. The report was done by a German scientific team headed by Ernst Steinhoff and Wernher von Braun.

Event 48512 (C223908D)
Date: 7/1991
Description: A ret. USAF Col. tells ufologist Tim Cooper early UAP were thought to be German, used nuclear power in a way not understood and were composed of metals and plastics not known on Earth. The USAF panicked when it recovered flying discs in the Mojave Desert and New Mexico, he claimed, and transported them to Muroc AFB and Langley; they were lifting bodies that looked like inverted bathtubs that looked like a “pod” or short-range recon probe. Von Braun, Condon, Oppenheimer and Teller worked on scientific research of the crash retrievals he claimed.
The Col. had “no comment” on “who” helped them and suggests it was ET, but doesn’t explain. He states there were other USAF projects besides Blue Book that were UAP related including Project Black Book or Project Black Sky that used advanced cameras and sensors on high altitude aircraft like the X-2, X-15 and U-2, plus cameras on rockets that were launched from White Sands and the Cape to look for UAP. He also claims he heard of a USAF Project White Book that looked into historical UAP sightings including some from the Vatican back to the 15th century; allegedly the Vatican has UAP sighting photos going back to 1915 of all shapes and sizes rumored to be locked in a vault room inside the Vatican Basilica and even the USAF could not get access.
He states Talon Gold and Teal Ruby were programs for satellite recon objectives and led to the foundation of the NRO, and raw UAP data was processed by the Technical Reconnaissance Squadrons at NORAD at Ent AFB.

Event 48522 (6234CBBA)
Date: 7/8/1991
Location: Great Britain, Selkirk region, Borders
Description: (Translated from French) Truck driver Steve Hallett was driving on the A7 National Road in the Selkirk region, not far from a television antenna, when he was surprised to see a huge, disc-shaped, illuminated object in the sky right in front of him. Its diameter was estimated to be about 13 m. The object had colored lights and apparently a dome at its top. The needles on the gauges inside the truck went wild. Steve stopped the engine and, fascinated, watched the UFO for about fifteen seconds before it disappeared into the night at an astonishing speed. This report was sent to me by John Hay of St Mary’s Loch, Selkirk, who had noted the interview of Steve Hallett by Jill McPherson on Radio Borders the day after the incident. (July 8, 1991)

The object has colored lights and appears to have a dome on top. The truck’s instruments go haywire. He stops, mesmerized, and watches the UFO for about 15 seconds before seeing it disappear into the night sky at an impressive speed. (July 8)

Event 48527 (9602D7DE)
Date: 7/9/1991
Description: Sappho Henderson, the wife of Oliver W. Henderson, states in an affidavit that her husband in 1980-1981 picked up a newspaper at a grocery store in San Diego and saw an article describing a crash of a UFO outside Roswell with bodies of aliens; she states he told her “I want you to read this article, because it’s a true story. I’m the pilot who flew the wreckage of the UFO to Dayton, Ohio. I guess now that they’re putting it in the paper, I can tell you about this. I wanted to tell you for years.” She states he described the beings as small with large heads for their size; their suits were made of material different than he had ever seen and they looked strange; they were packed in dry ice; he had not been aware of the book The Roswell Incident at that time.
Mary Groode, Henderson’s daughter, signed an affidavit and said a similar story, that he showed her the newspaper article and said the bodies were small, pale, with slanted eyes and large heads, and there were three of them. He also told her on one occasion when they were looking at the stars that he was “looking for flying saucers…they’re real, you know.”

Event 48528 (BF15944F)
Date: 7/11/1991
Location: Mexico, Mexico City
Description: (Translated from French) Ytturia Garza: It was the day of the last total solar eclipse of the century. Mexico was one of the countries where this natural phenomenon could be observed very clearly. Scientists, television stations and all ordinary Mexicans were ready to film it. A few minutes before the eclipse appeared, at a good distance under the sun and to the right, an object of metallic and disc-like appearance. The device made no noise and moved hardly. Most scientists and cameramen had all their attention on the sun and did not see anything. But those from the Televisa television station had noticed it and published the photo in the evening newspaper. Then other video images appeared, some of Mexicans who, while waiting for the eclipse, filmed a little at random. These images were taken in the municipalities around Mexico City, which consolidated the testimony. When the computer analyses showed that it was a solid object, we knew that it was a real UFO in the Mexican sky. Since then the media have not let go of the subject.

Date: 7/11/1991
Locations: Mexico City, Mexico; Puebla; Oaxaca
Description: 12:21 p.m. While many people in Mexico City, Mexico, are looking to the sky to see the last total solar eclipse of the 20th century, they also notice a bright object hovering in the sky. Videos are recorded as far south as Puebla and Oaxaca. Skeptics claim the object is the planet Venus, but the full eclipse lasts just under 7 minutes, and the object is seen for more than 30 minutes—before, during, and after the event. Guillermo Arragin, a reporter, videotapes the object, and Jaime Maussan, host of the Mexican version of the CBS TV show 60 Minutes, shows the Arragin footage a week later. He asks his viewers to share any sightings they had during the eclipse. Fifteen videotapes are submitted, each taken by a witness in a different location. Maussan enlists the help of the station’s video experts for digital enhancement and enlargement. The videos show solid, metallic-looking objects that reflect light. Maussan looks into balloons, helicopters, and other conventional objects, but comes up empty. The enhancements reveal a “hockey puck” shape, and many of the recorded objects pass in front of clouds.

Date: 7/21/1991
Description: Three young girls (ages 10-12) had stayed up late to watch a TV program and had gone into the backyard to play on a trampoline in Springfield, Missouri at two o’clock in the morning. They noticed a white, oval-shaped light moving rapidly from the side of the house to a corner of the backyard, where a large tree stood. One of the girls then noticed a strange-looking humanoid figure standing near the trampoline. It was about 4½ feet tall and completely white in color, with thin long arms and a huge pear-shaped head that was completely bald. It had two large black almond-shaped eyes, and it was very skinny with long skinny fingers on its long arms. The girls next ran back into the house and attempted to tell an older cousin of the incident, but the cousin ignored them and went back to bed. The girls then went back into the den and resumed watching television. Moments later their cat began acting strangely and the television screen went blank. At this point all three then saw the same humanoid again, looking at them through a window. The humanoid moved its head in a jerky mechanical manner. The girls ran and hid in the basement, where they stayed for the remainder of the night.

Event 48560 (84E6F685)
Date: 8/10/1991
Locations: US; Sheraton Hotel in Martinsburg, West Virginia; Washington, D.C.; Justice Department; Iran; Bank of Credit and Commerce International; Martinsburg
Description: US freelance writer Danny Casolaro is found dead in a bathtub in room 517 of the Sheraton Hotel in Martinsburg, West Virginia, his wrists slashed 10–12 times. The medical examiner rules the death a suicide. His death becomes controversial because his notes suggest he is in Martinsburg to meet a source about a story he calls “the Octopus.” This centers on a sprawling collaboration involving an international cabal, primarily featuring a number of stories familiar to journalists who worked in and around Washington, D.C., in the 1980s—the Inslaw case, about a software manufacturer whose owner accused the Justice Department of stealing its work product; the October Surprise theory that during the Iran hostage crisis, Iran deliberately held back American hostages to help Ronald Reagan win the 1980 presidential election, the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, and Iran–Contra. Casolaro’s family argues that he has been murdered; that before he left for Martinsburg, he told his brother that he frequently received harassing phone calls late at night; that some of them were threatening; and that if something were to happen to him in Martinsburg, it will not be an accident. They also cite his well-known squeamishness and fear of blood tests, and state they find it incomprehensible that if he were going to commit suicide, he would do so by cutting his wrists a dozen times. A number of law-enforcement officials also argue that his death deserves further scrutiny, and his notes are passed by his family to ABC News and Time magazine, both of which investigate the case, but find no evidence of murder.

Event 48562 (1712C840)
Date: 8/13/1991
Location: USA, Laguna Cartagena (Puerto Rico)
Description: (Translated from French) At night, Mrs. Marisol Camacho, a young woman, received an unexpected visit, to say the least, from two strange creatures at her home: "I was sleeping when around 2 o’clock in the morning, I heard strange noises outside, near the balcony. I got up and went to the window. Someone was mumbling in an incomprehensible gibberish. I opened the blinds very quietly and - Oh! Lord! - there were two of the strangest creatures you could imagine standing there, on my balcony! They were examining my flower pots, and more particularly my Quezo Suizo (Swiss cheese whose scientific name is Monsterosa deliciosa, a tropical vine that can take gigantic dimensions and whose alveolate leaves are pierced with holes like so many portholes) They were cutting leaves and exchanging comments. They seemed literally fascinated by this plant. On my side, I was just as surprised and - curiously - I could no longer move. I was paralyzed, and, too, fascinated. These creatures had a size of about 1.20 m, with large skulls, egg-shaped, rounded at the top and more pointed at the chin. They were very emaciated and all gray, and also completely naked. The eyes were black and very elongated on each side of the head, without pupil and without white part like us. The faces were flat, with a small slit for the mouth, without lips, and two small holes for the nose. Not for a single moment did I feel fear - I was simply amazed by what I saw; It was like children… Their arms were longer than ours, and their long bony hands had only four slender fingers. These creatures did not seem to notice me at the window. They took two leaves from my plant and left, still chattering in this kind of senseless gibberish. They walked slowly towards the Laguna Cartagena, sank into the thicket at the end of the street and disappeared. I couldn’t believe my eyes. (…) After their departure, I could move again. I went back to bed and later I told this scene to my husband.

The witness was unable to move during her encounter, which lasted about two minutes.

Event 48566 (E7C8E81F)
Date: 8/13/1991
Description: Four men staying at a local guest house near Victoria, Entre Rios, Argentina were alerted to two maneuvering lights in the sky at 10 p.m. One was yellow and the other red, and they first moved up and down, then in a triangular pattern. One of the lights then descended onto the road near the guesthouse. Two dark human-like figures emerged from the landed object and appeared to float above the ground moving around back and forth. Although they were human-like, their heads were slightly larger than normal. Suddenly the light illuminating the object turned off, and a white bowl-shaped object could be discerned. A few of the witnesses were not able to see the figures completely, and only saw their arms and legs. Later that same evening a man reported that he had been abducted, and awakened in a nearby garden as a blue beam was being retracted into a departing UFO.

Location: Argentina, La Matanza (Victoria)
Description: (Translated from French) Around the same time, in the “Esuela Hogar General San Martin” boarding school across the road, night watchmen and students saw a bright object land 200 meters from the refectory. They went out and approached it to within 40 meters. There the children and watchmen saw three humanoids come out of the craft. These beings seemed to float a few centimeters off the ground, while staying very close to their ship. There were no other details: the object dazzled the sight of all the witnesses, so much so that they thought they were seeing “spirits” while feeling great anguish. The sound of a truck on the road made the object and entities disappear. The next morning they found no trace of the landing and the management thought it was a case of collective hallucination. However, a week later the trace appeared, but 200 meters further! It had the shape of an elongated horseshoe 25m long and 15m wide, compacting the ground in depth as if a huge weight had weighed on it, with three deeper imprints still.

Location: Belgium, Soignies
Description: (Translated from French) Around midnight, four young people aged 19 to 24 were on the Place du Jeu de Balle when suddenly two, then three strong white lights illuminated the place as if it were broad daylight. The three sources of bright light each measured between 1 m and 1.50 m in diameter, spaced 6 to 15 m apart in a triangular arrangement. The altitude was estimated to be 20 meters and the distance 60 meters. No breath, no sound, no smell, no smoke. In the center of the configuration a fixed blue light. The white lights sparkled like the mirror balls you see in dance halls.

Event 48582 (E7275D25)
Date: Late 8/1991
Location: USA, Cuesta Blanca (Puerto Rico)
Description: (Translated from French) Ulises Perez was riding his motorcycle on the dirt road that crossed a large farm in the Cuesta Blanca area, between Parguera and Laguna Cartagena. It was 11:30 PM and it was in the last days of August 1991: "…I was riding, and all of a sudden my motorcycle nose-dived into a puddle. The engine stalled and died. I was trying to see what I could do and after, supposedly, solving my problem, I revved the engine. At least I tried…that’s when my gaze fell on the irrigation canal - and that’s where I saw the thing. I saw something that was sitting or crouching on a log, next to a tree. The creature seemed to have a raw skin - you know, like when you cut a thickness of skin and at the cut the flesh appears white with pink spots. That’s what it looked like. A whitish skin, very pale, like that of some salamanders. We looked at each other for a moment, without moving. I’m not ashamed to admit that I was scared and that I tried to start my bike again. But as soon as I made a move, the thing jumped into the canal water and disappeared. I even saw its feet disappear under the water lilies. My motorcycle started again…and so did I. (1991, late August)

Location: USA, Laguna Cartagena (Puerto Rico)
Description: (Translated from French) Two weeks later, the extraterrestrials returned to Marisol’s (cf. 13/8/91). “Just like last time, it was late,” she told us. "First, I recognized the same strange noises; I jumped out of bed and ran to the window, which was only half-closed; it was indeed the same little creatures again! (…) they were still examining my plants in every detail, mumbling among themselves. This time, I could move and I tried to say something to them. I started to pull the curtains, but the creatures heard the noise; they turned towards me, gave me a quick look and ran away at full speed towards the lagoon where, just like last time, they disappeared.

Event 48588 (B03E27C6)
Date: 8/28/1991
Description: At 4:42 a.m. a huge, dirigible-shaped object first attracted the attention of the military when it appeared on their radar screens over the Mangishlak Peninsula, Shaitan Mazar, Kyrgizstan. It was flying from west to east at 960 km per hour, and at an altitude of 6600 meters. Thinking that the object might have been launched from Kapustin Yar, Mangishlak military personnel contacted the Cosmodrome. Kapustin denied any knowledge of the object, although they confirmed its appearance on radar. The object failed to respond to attempts at communication on any frequency, and since it was flying near a restricted area, two MIG-29 fighter jets already on patrol were directed to intercept it. In addition, a third jet was scrambled from Air Station 7.
The MIG pilots were directed to intercept the object, to identify it if possible, to try to make contact with it, and to force it to land at the nearest Air station. If the object failed to cooperate, they were directed to shoot it down. The MIGs intercepted the object over the western shore of the Aral Sea at 5:12 a.m. The pilots observed the object both visually and on their radar screens, and they described it as dirigible-shaped, 600 meters long by 110 meters wide, with very little surface detail except for two round “portholes” near the front, and some sort of strange green markings near the rear. The object did not make any hostile moves or react in any way to the presence of the jets. When all attempts at contacting the object failed, the squadron leader proposed positioning the jets on either side of the object at a distance of about 800 meters, and gently but firmly directing it to the Air Station. If necessary the jets would fire warning shots to encourage the object to cooperate.
When the jets were in position around the object and within 800 meters of it the weapons systems of the MIGs shut down for no apparent reason. Worse yet, their engines began to malfunction. The object also began to make evasive zigzag maneuvers, and increased its speed from 960 km/hour to 6800 km/hour. These maneuvers were verified by radar at Baikonur, Alma-Alta, and Bishkek. The jets had no alternative but to back off, and the object proceeded east through Alma-Alta airspace at the slightly lower altitude of 4500 meters. Radar dispatchers in Alma-Alta, fearing a collision with conventional aircraft, issued a general alert for air traffic to avoid the area. At 5:27 a.m. the object disappeared from radar in the area of Lake Issyk-Kul near the border of Kazakhstan.
A month later reports began to trickle back to Bishkek that a huge UFO had been seen to crash into the Tien Shan Mountains, 100 kilometers east of Przhevalsk near a peak known as Pik Pobeda (Peak of Victory). The actual site lay in a gorge known as “Shaitan Mazar” or “Grave of the Devil”, near the Saris Dzas River. A search party led by Michael Eltchin was dispatched, but were unable to
