UFO
Sightings Through Drawings
|
Other
UFO reports I collected came in the form of drawings gathered
from a number of books. I felt it was important to display
them here because they may not have been mentioned before,
or listed anywhere else other than in my private files.

Observation
made in the Aveyron, in France, around a farm occupied

wife and his son. The farmer observed three balls of white
light, each about the size of "three human heads",
coming down from a hill. June 15, 1966 and the night of
January 5 to 6, 1967.
A
few minutes later, an object shaped like a shell, is seen
standing in a field. From its top, a narrow and powerful,
luminous beam goes around like a lighthouse in the night.
A
moment afterward, the farmer's son notices a light coming
in his direction. An oval object, a "saucer" that
comes down, settles within 20 metres of him. He sees two
domes in which there are two humanoids, each wearing a helmet
and dressed in green-colored leotards.

Sighting
of two UFOs by a man nicknamed "Doctor X", who
wanted to remain anonymous. November

Afterwards,
a sight even more unbelievable offers itself to the eyes
of Doctor X: He sees the two antennas penetrating each
other, and then, without slowing down, the two UFOs combine
and literally merge together to become one object.
Its
size is enormous. It is estimated to be about 65 metres
wide and 16 metres high, without the antennas.

A
japanese student, Yoshiaki Kato, was setting up on the balcony
of his home to take a few photographs of the Tokyo tower (which
serves as an antenna for television and telecommunications).
He expected to present a few documents at an exhibition organized
by his school. With his camera, he took three snapshots. The
young man never noticed anything in particular, but at the
same time, his mother and several neighbors were observing
some UFOs in proximity of the tower (one of the witnesses
immediately informed the local police; an official report
proves it). Once the film was developed, Yoshiaki was quite
surprised to see these objects appear on his snapshots. September
19, 1973, about 7:30 p.m., in Tokyo, Japan. |

Phenomenon
observed by M. L.R. in the Rambouillet forest, France, on
February 5, 1974, about 6:30p.m. At 10 metres from the ground,
the object moves silently at a speed of 1 km/h. Its length
is estimated at 9 metres. After 30 seconds, the object is
hidden from view by the trees and is no longer seen, despite
the movement of the witness towards a clearing.
This
observation has some analogies of shape and sizes with a
luminous mass seen and photographed by a policeman at Revigny-sur-Ornoin
(Meuse), in June 1975.
