Russian meteor blast injures at least 1,000 people
Russian meteor blast injures at least 1,000 people
Moscow (CNN) – A meteor streaked through the skies above Russia’s Urals region Friday morning before exploding with a flash and boom that shattered glass in buildings and left about 1,000 people hurt, authorities said.
Described by NASA as a “tiny asteroid,” the meteor’s explosion created a blast in central Russia equivalent to 300,000 tons of TNT, the space agency’s officials said Friday, adding that the incident was a once-in-100-years event.
The injured included more than 200 children. Most of those hurt are in the Chelyabinsk region, though the vast majority of injuries are not thought to be serious.

Low level UFO incidents, Mysterious Creature Encounters Among the 2013 Weird Incidents Reported from Pennsylvania
Low level UFO incidents, Mysterious Creature Encounters Among the 2013 Weird Incidents Reported from Pennsylvania
From Researcher: Stan Gordon
A large rectangular object hovered low over a major highway, and residents of Pennsylvania reported encounters with Bigfoot, giant birds, and other strange creatures. These were some of the strange incidents reported from across the Keystone state during 2013. Other people reported such things as mystery booms, strange animal screams, mysterious footprints, as well as various other paranormal events. Some people submitted photos and videos of anomalies that they could not explain.
During 2013, my desk was covered with reports of UFO sightings and other unusual incidents from statewide locations that originated from 50 counties of the commonwealth. I also received reports from nearby states such as West Virginia, Virginia, and Ohio. Quite often,those who experience strange events will either contact me directly, or report their experiences to other research groups or independent researchers. Such sources include the PA Chapter of (MUFON) The Mutual UFO Network, www.mufonpa.com, Peter Davenport’s, “National UFO Reporting Center,” www.nuforc.org, and the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society, www.pabigfootsociety.com. I maintain contact with many research groups and Pennsylvania as well as with national researchers.
In 1959, I began to log reports of mysterious happenings. In 1969 I started taking calls from the public on UFO sightings and other unusual occurrences and I continue to receive phone and e-mail sighting reports on a frequent basis. It was after the Kecksburg UFO incident in 1965 that I began to conduct on the scene investigations of such odd occurrences. It was during that time that it became apparent that the majority of UFO sightings and other strange encounters reported could be found to have a natural or man-made explanation. Many UFO sightings that people call me about are determined to be misidentifications of such things as bright stars and planets, meteors, search lights, space debris, Chinese lanterns, and even rare meteorological events. Some Bigfoot sightings and even observations of other unusual animals are commonly found to be misidentifications as well.
An odd blob on the ground near Latrobe was identified as a slime mold known as “dog vomit fungus”. On a yearly basis, however, some UFO sightings and other oddities reported can’t be so easily explained away. During the last couple of years in Pennsylvania, we are seeing an increase of UFO cases where structured objects are being observed at a low level and at very close range.
UFOs of various shapes and sizes were reported statewide during 2013. Sightings of disc, cigar, triangular and spherical objects were reported. Observations of rectangular objects appeared to be on the increase. Over the years, UFOs have appeared frequently over the rivers and lakes of Pennsylvania. During February, in the Monongahela River in Washington County, four to six roughly round transparent objects moved in a random group through the water about 40 feet from shore. Behind each object was a trail about six feet long suggesting they were propelled? Each object protruded about 3-4 inches above the water causing a disturbance. Suddenly the objects all stopped at the same time and disappeared from sight.
One March evening, seven to nine yellowish- gold colored rectangular objects moved in a formation, “like a train in the sky,” over the Greensburg area. On the evening of June 1st, a woman and her three year old child were traveling eastbound of Route 30 in North Huntingdon Township in Westmoreland County. Ahead of them was a 55 feet long solid rectangular object hovering silently about 60 feet above the highway. The woman said the object, “looked like the gondola of a blimp without the blimp.” The object was described as two tiered, and the lighting configuration was unlike conventional navigational lighting. As they passed under the object, all of the dashboard electronics in the car went dead. The woman attempted to take a picture with her iPhone but the camera function would not load up. She lost her cell phone signal as well. As the woman accelerated down the road and away from the object, all electronic functions returned to normal.
In July, near Jeannette, a large dark elongated cloud was observed in a clear sky that seemed out of place. From the left side of the cloud appeared a long rippling line of what looked like burning smoke that was rolling out. From the end of that line a baseball sized sphere of light appeared and began to move toward the east and closer to the witness. As the object moved, it increased in size from that of a baseball to nearly that of a volley ball. The silent object stopped about 50-60 feet away in front of the witness, and several hundred feet off the ground. The object hovered for several seconds then accelerated in speed and zoomed off into the sky toward the south.
Reported encounters with huge hair covered bipedal creatures have been a part of Pennsylvania history. Hundreds of Bigfoot sightings have been recorded from many parts of the state. Residents living around the Chestnut Ridge in Westmoreland, Fayette, and Indiana counties continued to report possible Bigfoot activity during 2013. In January, in Indiana county, strange whining sounds and something banging on the side of a country home unnerved a family who found a series of five toed footprints in the snow.
Eric Altman, Director of the PA Bigfoot Society, saw a slowdown in sighting reports, track discoveries and encounters in 2013. The group did receive several reports in the spring in Fayette County and again in the fall. Reports also were submitted from Westmoreland County from communities close to or within proximity of the Chestnut Ridge. During the fall months, the P.B.S. also received and investigated claims from Clearfield, Elk, Pike, and Lycoming Counties. No conclusive evidence was collected and some of these cases are still being investigated.
In December, hunters a few miles north of Greensburg came across a series of footprints unlike anything they had ever seen in the woods. The tracks were 11 ½ inches long and 5 ½ inches wide. There were 4 toes in the front, and one toe off to the side. They were similar to pongid or ape-like tracks. Over the years, similar tracks have been found from across the state.
Observations continue of giant birds with massive wingspans (Thunderbirds). On May 17th, during the afternoon, a man on a motorcycle riding on a rural road in Derry Township, Westmoreland County, was surprised when a huge flying creature passed from left to right about 50 feet in front of him. The dark colored flying creature was only about 8-10 feet above the roadway. The witness stated that the “wingspan was gigantic,” and estimated it to be 20 feet or more in length.
During June, a mystery animal was observed and photographed in Unity Township, Westmoreland County. The animal was a little larger than a fawn, with a face somewhat like a dog and had large ears. The body of the animal was estimated to be about 2 to 2 ½ feet long with a tail about a foot long.
The entire animal was described as really dark brown and completely hairless. The tail was long and skinny. The creature appeared to be very thin, and the back legs of the animal appeared to be longer than the front legs. The weirdest physical detail of the animal was a very prominent snout. In past years I have received similar such reports from other locations in the state.

Ring UFO Caught in Earths Orbit HD Strange Sky Ships Captured on Back Yard Cameras
Ring UFO Caught in Earths Orbit HD Strange Sky Ships Captured on Back Yard Cameras
Object starts off quite translucent as it comes into view, and then becomes more solid and defined.
This could indicate the object is a dimensional craft, phasing into our reality from an alternate one. This of course is only an opinion, but please note, sightings of these ring shaped UFOs are increasing, some are quite small, and others, especially ones seen around the sun are massive, only question is what are they?
These are the last three minutes taken from the LG camera were it can be seen when the object got lost behind dense clouds.
We try to be as precise as we can when we make some claims: When we use the label UFO is because we have been unable to identify the object of interest, we always try to look for the standard objects in the sky: man made airplanes/drones, birds, balloons, astronomical objects like the Moon, Venus that are usually the only ones visible in daylight and sometimes satellites like the ISS, but these are very hard to spot in daylight. The more difficult of the standard objects to identify are the balloons because they come in very, very different shapes and materials: but looking to its movement relative to the wind and/or its configuration and movement with high zooming lens you can almost always get an identification.
Humanity should start thinking about how to interact with alien species long before coming into contact with extraterrestrial life, experts say.
Coming up with a strict set of guidelines that govern the way people on future interstellar space missions study and interact with aliens is imperative before anyone blasts off to a distant world, according to attendees at Starship Congress in August.
While a “prime directive” — the rule that prevented Star Fleet officers from interfering with the business of alien life-forms on TV’s “Star Trek” — might be a little extreme, such a rule could help govern interactions between aliens and humans.
“In the event that we discover evidence of intelligent life on another world, that will be a social, cultural and technologically influential event to human affairs which will need to be managed with great care and to ensure our culture and their culture remains intact and not disrupted by this new knowledge,” Kelvin Long, the founder of Project Icarus, said during a panel on Aug. 16.
People traveling to distant stars will be carrying tangible and intangible aspects of human culture with them, so it should be curated responsibly before being sent to an alien planet, one expert said.
“I think it comes down to how we’re going,” Armen Papazian, the CEO of the International Space Development Hub, said. “Do we trust that this is a beautiful universe, an incredible cosmos? Do we really believe that it’s an amazing landscape, it’s a bed of stars? What do we think we’re going out there to find and are we going to embrace it or are we going to utilize? Are we trying to export our scarcity economics or are we trying to enjoy the abundant cosmos? … Whatever we are here, we’re going to export wherever we go.”
It’s possible that humans in the future will have no desire to land on exoplanets after free-roaming in space for years at a time, Icarus Interstellar president Richard Obousy said.
“I’m not convinced that when we have the capabilities to build starships … that we’ll want to go from one gravitational abyss to another gravitational abyss,” Obousy said. “I’m not convinced that settling on planets or even moons is going to be necessary.”
Humans can’t help but explore and interact with the world around them, Icarus Interstellar’s James Benford said during the panel.
“We won’t leave them alone,” Benford said. “We would like to explore alien ecology extensively to understand if there are any interactions leading to incompatibilities. We would need to establish human research stations to do that because it’s a complex problem. It seems unlikely that there would be interference between separately evolved ecologies, especially if we minimize contamination and wear the appropriate suits.”
Les Johnson, of the Tennessee Valley Interstellar Workshop, takes Benford’s ideas a little further. Johnson and his group have developed three moral principles that he hopes will serve as a guide for any interactions with all kinds of extraterrestrial life:
Learn all you can learn before risking any kind of direct interaction
If it seems to be alive, leave it alone.
Avoid bringing samples to the home world because it might not be totally incompatible with our ecosystem.
When developing a strategy for first contact, it might also be important to think about the mental and physical well-being of the aliens with whom humans could come into contact, panel members stated.
Finding out that a more advanced civilization exists somewhere in the universe could be as jarring for humans around the globe as it was for native peoples when the conquistadors came to North America for the first time, Benford said.
“It wasn’t just guns, disease and steel, it was the shock of finding out that you’re not even No. 1, you’re not even No. 3,” Benford said. “That is a thing to really worry about.”
In spite of all of these rules, it will be up to the people on the starship to ultimately enforce or do away with whatever rules were in place before they left the planet.
“A vibrant interstellar civilization will be essentially ungovernable, and that observing such guidelines will be strictly left up to each and every first contact team to obey or not obey at their discretion,” Johnson said. “When someone is several light-years from home and they’ve encountered something they never encountered before, they’re going to be making the decisions regardless of what the guiding moral principles might have been when they left home.”

Lumières de Phoenix - MAGONIE
Lumières de Phoenix MAGONIE
Pour info, l’unique vidéo des lumières en V, filmées par Terry Proctor avec un camescope, puis retravaillée par un photographe pour améliorer la visibilité:
Ça n’est pas très symétrique, et la dispositon des six lumières varie… D’autre part, la luminosité de ces lumières baisse considérablement après les premiers instants, ce qui s’accorde avec bon nombre de témoins qui ont vu les lumières disparaître ou s’affadir après le passage au plus près.
Et un article intéressant en français concernant les témoignages, par un non sceptique (Laurent Chabin):
I am writing to inform you the new update of the FOTOCAT Project’s blog, for March 2014.I hope you will find some interesting entries in this lengthy report.
Amateur astronomer Charles Lamoureux recorded video of a UFO over Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada on Friday, February 28.
UFO captured on video in Vancouver. (Credit: Charles Lamoureux)
The sighting reportedly occurred at 8:44 p.m. over the area of Cypress Provincial Park in North Vancouver. And, as the website Unknown Country explains, Lamoureux was able to record the UFO with three different cameras.
The witness referenced the website Heavens Above to eliminate the possibility that that UFO was simply a satellite. Lamoureux uploaded his video to YouTube, and, in the video’s description, he explains, “I must have seen over a dozen in a hour descend exact same area, some flashing, faster, but this one was so bright for sure there were more witnesses.”
Although he is willing to entertain the idea that the UFO was a satellite, Lamoureux believes that it would have to be “a spy unknown or space junk but it was really moving way too slow at the onset.”
What do you think the unidentified object is in Lamoureux’s video? Share your thoughts with us on the Open Minds Facebook page or in the comments below.
A man in Cleveland, Texas says he went out to photograph a strange “white tornado shaped cloud” and spotted mysterious glowing orbs flying under the cloud. He sent in a report with three images to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).

Second image submitted by Texas UFO witness. Click to enlarge. (Credit: MUFON)
Third image submitted by Texas UFO witness. Click to enlarge. (Credit: MUFON)
The witness says he saw the orbs fly slowly under the cloud, and then he lost sight of them.
Looked out front of my house say a white tornado shaped cloud..it was stationary and hovered over the treetops..I thought we were going to have a storm but sky was blue and clear no rain or thunderstorms. I thought it was strange how long it hovered over trees so I took some pictures as I took the pictures I noticed under the cloud were five orb shaped objects that moved slowly under the cloud in a straight line and moved along until they were gone..the cloud stayed for 15 min then slowly disappeared.
According to Roger Marsh, MUFON’s Director of Public Education and National UFO reporter for the Examiner, the case was investigated by their Texas chapter. Investigators determined the case was not a hoax. They filed the case as a genuine unknown, meaning they could not match the object up to any possible known man-made or astronomical object.
HIGH STRANGENESS IN THE SKIES OVER HODDESDON ENGLAND
MARCH 1, 2014 …. HODDESDON ENGLAND
MYSTERY surrounds the appearance of some strange lights in the sky, which were seen over Hoddesdon on Saturday night. A woman from River Avenue told the Mercury that she and a group of four friends were returning home from an event at the church hall at around 11 pm on Saturday. “Nobody had been drinking,” said the 67-year-old woman who did not want to be named. It was then that a neighbor pointed out some strange lights in the sky. “There was a very, very wide circle,” she said. She describes the lights as circular with a dotted pattern inside. “It was swinging up a huge area, backwards and forwards across the sky,” she said. The woman tried to take a picture of the lights, but the scene was too dark. “It was below cloud level,” she said. “It was about as wide as the gap between the houses.” Some of her neighbors were spooked and went inside. The shape was still in the sky when the woman got up later in the night. What does she think the lights were? “I haven’t got a clue,” she said. “It doesn’t make much sense. “When you hear reports of people seeing UFOs you think ‘Oh what rubbish.’ “There must be an explanation.” The caller’s 79-year-old neighbor later called the Mercury with her tale. “There were several of them,” said the second caller. “They almost looked as if there was something sucking them up,” she said. They then started “flying about all over the place.” “I have never seen anything like it before,” she said. “I wondered if there was some light display.” She describes the lights as “cloud color” and claims that each circular light seemed to be surrounded by smaller lights. There have been no other reported sightings. NOTE: The above image is a rendering.
Op alternatieve nieuwssites wordt veel gesproken over vrije energie. Er komt steeds meer informatie naar buiten over nieuwe uitvindingen en technologieën die worden stilgehouden. Er zijn een aantal redenen waarom de ontwikkeling op het gebied van vrije energie relatief moeizaam verloopt.
De grote spelers op de markt zouden hun winst in rook zien opgaan op het moment dat mensen niet meer afhankelijk zijn van fossiele brandstoffen. Het gaat om technologieën die worden gebruikt in auto’s, woningen en fabrieken. Vandaar dat veel nieuwe technologieën worden stilgehouden.
Daarnaast lijken sommige apparaten zich niets aan te trekken van de huidige natuurkundige wetten. Ook is het zo dat veel uitvinders het zwijgen wordt opgelegd omdat ze een bedreiging vormen, terwijl anderen zich te druk maken om patenten en winst.
Marko Rodin heeft een driedimensionaal model gemaakt van de wiskundige taal der natuur. Volgens sommigen is dit één van de grootste ontdekkingen ooit. Hoewel het werk rond de revolutionaire Rodin-spoel herhaaldelijk is onderworpen aan collegiale toetsing, wordt er nog weinig aandacht aan besteed. Rodin en zijn team willen de technologie om een aantal voor de hand liggende redenen niet verkopen aan grote bedrijven.
Wat zijn de voordelen van deze technologie?
Onbeperkte energie
Een einde aan alle ziektes
Onbeperkt voedsel
Reizen door het hele universum
Bouwen van de ultieme supercomputer
Maakt alle bestaande technologie overbodig
Rodin heeft zich als doel gesteld zijn kennis door middel van een open source-project door te geven aan het publiek. Denk aan een tentoonstelling voor kinderen, een boek of een DVD. Hij en zijn collega’s willen de technologie in handen geven van het volk om daarmee de hele wereld te redden.
February 28, 2014, inspired at least one viewer to file a UFO report with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), according to testimony in Case 54384 from the MUFON witness reporting database.
The witness had a UFO encounter about 10 a.m. on July 10, 2012, but had kept details of the incident to himself until a few scenes in the “Hangar 1″ show depicted objects that resembled his original sighting. The “Hangar 1″ episodes are based on MUFON case files and the first episode was televised just last evening.
“My family and I were camping at First Landing State Park, VA, in July 2012,” the witness stated. “The camping ground faces the Chesapeake beach side of Virginia Beach and is right next to the Joint Expeditionary Base, For Story.”
The witness was on his way to the bathroom when the object was first seen.
“Around 10 a.m., I was walking up to the camp bath and washrooms and noticed what looked like a 50-gallon barrel hovering above the beach area closest to the base at a slight eastward angle. I ignored it figuring it was a kite or something, but then it struck me as being unusual. I looked back up and stared at it for a few minutes. 'What is that?' I said several times, each time trying to rationalize it as a balloon or kite.”
The witness described the object.
“But it looked very solid and didn't move at all. If it were windy enough for a barrel-shaped kite to take flight, I would expect it to move or sway a bit. But it didn't.”
And then a second witness walked by.
“As he passed, I called out to him, 'Hey, what is that?' The guy looked up, stared a few moments and then simply said, 'I don't know' and kept walking.”
The witness then noticed military helicopters moving into the area.
“I continued to stare then saw two or three Blackhawk helicopters take off and head toward the northwest. I said to myself they're going after whatever that is. As I continued toward the bathroom, I kept watching the object as it hovered motionlessly. The helicopters did a large westward loop.”
The witness then went into the bathroom and returning five minutes later, the object was gone.
No images or videos were included with the MUFON report, which was filed March 1, 2014. Virginia Beach, VA, has a population of 449,628. Virginia has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Virginia had 8 UFO reports in February 2014 - the 15th highest reporting state - while California had 59 reports - the highest reporting state in the nation.
You can read more details about other recently reported cases at the UFO Examiner home page.
The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or man-made. If Virginia MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
"Hangar 1: The UFO Files" can be seen on the H2 channel Friday nights at 10 p.m. ET.

I get irritated when I hear of someone hoaxing a UFO sighting or ET experience. It is an insult to those of us who have actually had an experience that has changed our outlook, our lives. We have to live each day with what we saw or what happened to us, knowing and wondering what else is going on that is hidden from us through secrecy, lies and screen memories. Lost time and the indications of unpleasant encounters such as we had on our tapes can haunt you for the rest of your life. Researching, searching, and researching more cannot always help you find the answers, but can, in fact, take you in directions that lead to more discoveries of the strange, dangerous, unknown, and paranormal.
Because of the skeptics, the intrusions in your life, the unknown but indicated and continuing events, life can be difficult to face and often times experiencers, contactees, and abductees find they have to continually defend themselves on their experiences. These are some of the reasons that UFO researchers and experiencers get downright angry when they hear of a hoax.
Normally a hoax is heard of after the fact, after researchers, investigators or curiosity seekers run across evidence that shows the incident or occurrence is not real. There are those circumstances where the “real” experiencers have been accused of hoaxing, where people have gone out of their way to prove an experience or person as a hoax, when, in fact, they really did have something happen. Stories like the Gulf Breeze sightings, Travis Walton, Stan Romanek and, yes; even Betty and Barney Hill have had their problems with being accused of dishonesty in the retelling of their experiences.
Stan Romanek has been in the news lately with one clip showing him possibly trying to create odd events happening during an interview and the latest concerning accusations that he had child pornography in his possession. Of course he, his friends and wife point to set-ups by others, including accusing the government of putting things on their computer. The outcome to this may take a long time in coming.
Before I stray from the point of this article, let me get back to the reason I am irritated. I received an e-mail from a UFO group that I am a member of, with a link that takes you to a site/ forum where the members are hobbyists involved in remote controlled drones and rotor craft. According to the information, the owner of the site and several other members were conversing about the plans to stage a UFO sighting hoax in April around the world.
They originally planned it for the 1st of April, but as of the last time the site was accessible, they had changed it to April 5th. I went to the link the other day, after some others had heard and posted about this planned hoax, they have changed the front page, making the conversations on the forum inaccessible to non-members.
They claimed to have members worldwide that were going to take part in this hoax but the spread sheet that was included must have had a virus attached because my virus software refused to let me open it, saying it was dangerous. Of course this page with, the conversations planning this event is no longer viewable at the FPVLAB site anymore, however I was able to see that their list of members was over 19,000 and reading another article that was put up after I received the email, the author was able to discover other countries with members who were willing to participate.
As far as anyone knows, at this point now, there is a mass UFO sighting hoax planned for April 5th, with all of the remote craft that will be launched fitted with blue, led lighting. Supposedly it will take place at 8:00 PM around the world, since they believe that is a time when it will be dark, people will still be walking around and more likely to see the blue lights in the sky.
While the members of this hoax are portraying it as something they can joke about later, there are a few things that come to mind. Is it actually a joke or a way to disguise something else that is going to happen? Could they have planned this as a joke, but the initial person was instructed to bring this into development, hoping it would go viral so people wouldn’t be surprised to actually see something in the air, something that might not be their rotorcraft or drones at all, but something that is actually waiting to land unnoticed? Could this have been instigated to draw our attention away from something bigger?
I try not to point fingers or judge. I’ve had enough non-believers and skeptics in my life. I try to look at everything with an open mind, but when I see that something is an actual hoax, when the proof is shown, it irritates me, it makes all of us who believe there is something out there much less credible in the eyes of our friends, family and viewers. This is the first time I have heard of an actual hoax being planned and if it isn’t a cover up for something bigger, it makes me downright angry.
Just one more note on here: If there are 19,010 members on this site that are willing to participate, how many friends, fellow hobbyist does each member have that might being willing to go along with this hoax, and if it isn’t to cover up something bigger, how much more attention will it draw from those above the earth that are definitely observing/interacting with us?
While some of these articles claim this author discovered the hoax, I have to add that I received the link in an e-mail days before any of these articles appeared and it kind of irks me that someone would use this information to add their advertisement to, trying to get people to buy their book.
Strange encounter Vilvorde Belgium, 1973. The image was a symbol seen on the craft by the witness:
Location. Vilvorde Belgium Date: December 15 1973 Time: late night
The main witness was Monsieur “V.M”, aged 28 at the time. He and his wife were in bed and asleep. At 2.00 a.m. he arose to go to the toilet, which is in a small outer yard adjoining the kitchen. In order not to disturb his wife he made his way in the dark, using a flashlight. Reaching the kitchen, he herd, coming from the outside, a sound like that of a shovel striking the ground, and, filtering in through the gap at the left hand side of the kitchen window curtain, he perceived a greenish light. He compares it with the diffused glow of an aquarium-light. Knowing that his garden would normally be plunged in total darkness at such an hour, and puzzled by the noise, he went to the window and parted the curtain, to behold an astonishing sight. At the other end of the little garden there was a small being about 1m 10cm in height and wearing a shining one-piece suit emitting a greenish luminosity. The entity’s back was towards him in three-quarter profile. He was of medium build, and his head, arms and legs normal in appearance. His green uniform was very bright and sparkling and the witness compared it with the material of the upholstery of certain “buggy” types of cars (polyester tinged with metallic particles). The entity’s head was protected by a transparent globular helmet, and from the rear of it a tube led down to join a sort of rectangular “haversack” (knapsack) on his back. The “haversack” covered his back roughly from the waist upwards to the level of the shoulder-blades. All this apparatus was of exactly the same appearance as the rest of the uniform. The clothing appeared to be entirely without stitching, with no buttons, no fasteners, or pockets. The witness noticed a belt, and when the entity moved about he was able to see that, on his abdomen, at waist-level, he had a small bright red “square box,” luminous and sparkling. The belt was about 3-4 cm wide and the small “box” was about 8 cm long and some 3 or 4 cm wide (approximate). The box emitted a red light of constant intensity. The entity’s trousers, the lower parts of which were slightly baggy, were thrust into small close-fitting boots who had the same appearance as the rest of the uniform. No detailed features of the entity were visible. His hands were of the same shape as ours, but with smaller proportions. They were gloved and the sleeves of his suit were tight-fitting at the wrists and, like the bottoms of the trousers, slightly puffed out. Seen from the rear, the head looked round and black, and V.M. thought the entity must have short hair. A luminous halo surrounded him from heat to foot, and also partly illuminated the ground and the wall on his left. No sound was emitted by the entity and the witness could detect no respiratory movement in him. In his hands he was holding an instrument closely resembling a vacuum cleaner, or a mine detector, which he was slowly passing to and fro over a heap of brick-bats that the witness had gathered together at the bottom of the garden a few days previously. The instrument had a long shaft bent at one end to form a handle, with a small rectangular box below the handle. “The “detector” itself consisted of a thick rectangular plate with the frontal edge leveled. The other side, to the rear, consisted of a cylinder with about the same diameter as the thickness of the plate. The shaft was connected to the instrument between these two areas. In color the instrument was identical with the humanoid’s uniform. Witness detected no sound or light emission from it. The witness noticed that the small personage seemed to have difficulty in getting about. He moved slowly, with a waddle, and bending his knees lightly. His gait seemed particularly heavy. It was at this point that V.M. made use of his flashlight, flashing it twice towards the end of the garden. Thereupon the humanoid turned around, and it seemed as though his neck must not be movable, for he did not simply turn his head but slewed the whole body around. Then for the first time, the witness caught sight of the dark face of the strange visitor. Neither nose nor mouth was visible. All that he could distinguish was a pair of somewhat pointed ears. The eyes, oval and yellow in color, were particularly large, very bright, and surrounded by a green rim. Upon the iris part of the eyes the witness noticed small black and red veinlets. The pupil was black, and slightly oval. At times lids came down over the eyes and simultaneously the face became completely dark for a few moments. When the eyes were open, these two upper lids were invisible. One might liken them to a kind of black blinds or shutters, which progressively masked the eyes as they descended. As he now stood there eyeing the witness face to face and holding his “detector” in his left hand, the ufonaut seemed to answer the luminous signals from the flashlight by raising his hand and giving the “V” sign with the index and second fingers, after which he turned away again and, with his characteristic gait and gently swinging his arms, walked off towards the back wall. Arrived at the wall, the creature place one foot flat against it and then, without any hesitation, did likewise with the second foot and walked straight up the wall with no change of gait except that now he was holding his legs stiff. During this astonishing progression the personage still continued with the same arm movements and continued to hold his instrument in the same position as when he was on the ground. Reaching the top of the wall, which was about 3 meters high, he executed a complete arc of a circle as he became erect again and then swung down and forward to descend the other face of the wall in this same surprising fashion. Four minutes or so after this unwonted exploit a vivid halo of white light appeared beyond the wall and the witness heard a faintly perceptible chirring sound somewhat muffled by the wind. Then, rising very slowly, a round object began to appear, hardly a few meters distant beyond the wall. After rising a short way, the “machine” halted and remained there stationary for about four minutes, still emitting the same chirring noise, comparable to the noise of a cricket rubbing its wing-cases together, and with about the same degree of loudness. The diameter of the object might have been about five meters (this based on the width of the witness’s garden). Its upper half was orange-colored, phosphorescent, and surmounted in the center by a transparent cupola emitting a greenish light. The color of the lower half was a dark claret and on this darker are, showing up very sharply, were three lights disposed horizontally, the one on the left as seen by the witness being blue, the middle one yellow, and the right hand side one red. These three lights flashed on three times in sequence. On the periphery of the machine, the witness noticed what looked like showers of sparks resembling the sparks of a cigarette lighter. They were located at the juncture between the dark underpart and the bright upper part of the machine, that is to say, at the part where the craft’s circumference. The sparks seemed to be thrown outwards by a rotary movement, although the object did not seem to be rotating on its own axis. Beneath the transparent dome, V.M. could see the humanoid bathed in a bluish-green light. No other detail in the cabin was visible to him. Immediately below the cupola the witness noticed moreover an emblem outlined upon the orange portion of the craft. It consisted of a black circle traversed diagonally by a yellow lighting flash of a brighter shade than the phosphorescent orange area. The UFO now rose again vertically about twenty meters, still retaining its horizontal position, and bean to rock gently to and fro. The showers of spark were still coming out all around it. Then the chirring sound grew louder and became a sort of hiss, and the craft gathered speed and shot straight up into the sky, leaving behind it a luminous trail. In a few seconds it was no more than a tiny point of light lost among the stars. At no time during this extraordinary encounter does the witness claim to have felt any fear.

While picking up mushrooms on the woods on Mont Real, the witness observed a 4-foot tall dwarf standing at the edge of the clearing 100 feet away. As he grabbed something from the ground a second identical being joined him from the woods beyond. They looked perfectly human and wore beige coveralls that covered them up the wrists and neck; their feet were obscured by high grass. Their arms were slender and their hands normal. Each wore a black beret on his head. Thinking they were children, the witness called out to them, whereupon they laughed aloud, then turned and fled into the brush behind them. A few seconds later, the witness saw a dull blue gray oval shaped object, about 5 meters wide, rise up beyond the trees, ascending to a height of 20 feet, making a slight whistling sound. There it paused briefly, then departed toward the northeast rapidly and in total silence. At the landing site, a bush, and some grass had been flattened, suggesting that the object had been hovering a foot or so above the ground.

The witness, Mr. Segundo Godoy Lopez, 50, was working on the rooftop of a building on Alonso de Cordoba Street, in the vicinity of Avenida Americo Vespuccio, when he felt the “urge” to look upward toward the south. At that time he saw a large metallic object in motion. The object emitted no glow whatsoever and was dark gray in color. The witness estimated that it was 10 city blocks distant from him, approximately one kilometer away. The object then moved slowly toward the northern district of the city, around Mt. Manquehue, toward the NE, in the direction of the Andean Range. The front section was rectangular with two medium sized rectangular windows being clearly visible. It wasn’t very tall, but it was long. The witness first perceived it as 1.5 meters and as it grew closer, 100 meters. He estimated that its front was some 10 meters tall as well as its rear section. A square object could be made out. The rear section was serrated and uneven, although it had the same length. It tailed off into four peaks. No antennas or light sources were in evidence. The windows were completely black. At the window on the right, he could see two humanoid figures down to their waistlines. They were thin, gray featureless. The color of their bodies was very light gray and both creatures could be clearly seen in the rectangle, one beside the other. Their arms rested against the lower part of the frame and they made clumsy sideways moves, as if looking for something in unison. It seemed as if they were looking at the landscape. At no time did the witness hear anything, but at one moment, when he tried to alert his co-workers in the lower floor, he found himself unable to move. He could only move his eyes. He claims not having felt any sense of despair or fear, and he stood up to the situation. He felt an increase in atmospheric pressure, and says his body was “pressured” and he felt dense—a situation that lasted until the object pulled away some 10 meters from where he worked. At that point he felt normalcy returning to the surroundings. The object continued moving in a straight line and slowly. He managed to see that it lacked wings or other appendages. It was simply rectangular and nearly square around its base, which he calculated at some 3 meters tall. Mr. Godoy adds that he suffered no damage to his skin, body or mind, aside from the momentary paralysis.

In the city of South Ashburnham, Massachusetts on the night of January 25, 1967, one of the most celebrated cases of UFO abduction began. Betty Andreasson was working in her kitchen while her seven children, mother, and father were in the living room. Shortly after 6:30, the lights in the house briefly blinked. Immediately thereafter, a reddish light began to beam through the kitchen window. The sudden darkness in the house set the kids nerves on edge, and Betty ran to comfort them. Her father ran into the kitchen to peer out the window, and find the source of the unusual light. To his utter shock, he saw five odd-looking beings coming toward the house with a hopping motion! Before he could regain his composure, he saw the beings walk right through the wooden door! What happened next would test the imagination and strength of even an open-minded, adventurous person. The entire family was suddenly put into a state of suspended animation. One of the creatures went to Betty’s father, while one of the other four began to make telepathic communication with Betty. One of the group seemed to be a leader of sorts. He was about five-feet tall. The other four appeared to be about a foot shorter. All of the beings had a pear-shaped head, with wide eyes, and small ears and noses. Their mouths were only slits, and never moved, though they were able to communicate through their minds. The beings wore a type of coverall, blue in colour, with a wide belt. There also was a logo of a bird on their sleeves. The hands only had three fingers, and they wore boots. The creatures did not move as a human, but floated as they went. Betty would later relate that, though she was frightened, she felt a sense of calm, even friendship toward the beings. The aliens were holding Betty’s children in a frozen state of consciousness, but when Betty showed concern for them, the aliens released her 11-year-old daughter, to assure her the children were not being harmed. Betty Andreasson Betty was taken by the aliens outside to a waiting craft which rested on the side of a sloping back yard. The craft was estimated to be about 20 feet in diameter, in the classic UFO shape. Betty believes that after she was aboard the craft, it joined a “mother” craft, where she underwent a physical examination, and also was subjected to the effects of strange equipment. After this, she was given a type of bizarre test, which caused her pain at first, but resulted in a kind of religious experience. Approximately four hours later, she was returned to her home by two of her captors. When she arrived, her entire family was still in a state of suspended animation. One of the beings had stayed in her house, evidently to watch the other family members. After releasing the family from the trancelike state, the aliens left. Betty would later state that the aliens had hypnotised her to not recall any of her experience until a designated time to be determined later. She was able to recall only certain things at the time of her experience; the power outage, the red light through the kitchen window, and the aliens entering the house. Before this bizarre happening, Betty had little or no knowledge of UFO folklore, and being a devoted Christian, she believed that the abduction had a religious meaning. It would be later until she began to view the abduction as alien in nature. Eight years later Betty answered an ad from Dr. J. Allen Hynek, who was soliciting abduction experiences from the general public. Her letter was dismissed at the time, because of its unusual details, and it would be January 1977, before her story would be fully investigated. The investigative team assigned to the Andreasson case included a solar physicist, and electronics engineer, an aerospace engineer, a telecommunications specialist, and a UFO investigator. The service of a hypnotist, and a medical doctor trained in psychiatry were also used. Betty’s case involved twelve months of investigation. She was given a character-reference check, two lie-detector tests, a psychiatric review, and an excruciating fourteen sessions of regressive hypnosis. The results of this inquiry were startling. Betty, along with her daughter, relived a detailed account of a UFO experience, agreeing on all basic aspects. The results were published in a 528 page account, which stated that Betty and her daughter were sane individuals, who sincerely believe all of the details given in their statements. The Betty Andreasson abduction case is still being investigated today.
When famed paranormal researcher John Keel went to West Virginia to investigate the now famous Mothman case, he found far more strange activity in the area than just the 7 ft flying bat creature.
While there, Keel received a phone call from a man who identified himself as ‘Indrid Cold.’
Keel said that the Indrid Cold calls were, cryptic and prophetic.
During his time in West Virginia, Keel interviewed dozens of people and many reported seeing UFOs, Men in Black, and “a strange man who seemed to come from nowhere”, that man was Indrid Cold.
Many believe that the Grinning Man and Indrid Cold are, in fact the same person.
Interestingly, the Keel phone call from Indrid Cold, was not the first contact with someone using that name.
Near Point Pleasant, West Virginia, where the Mothman was seen, is the town of Parkersburg.
While driving home from work on Interstate 77, a man named Woodrow Derenberger, reportedly came face to face with Indrid Cold.
Derenberger said, he heard a loud crashing sound, he looked in his rear view mirror, but just as he looked back, a vehicle sped past him.
The vehicle moved over in front of him, and began to slow until the vehicles came to a stop.
Derenberger gave a bizarre description of the vehicle that had cut him off:
“It looked like an old fashion kerosene lamp chimney, flames coming out both ends, with a big bulge in the middle.”
Then the door opened, and out stepped a man about 6-foot tall, with a dark tan, dark hair and wearing a one piece, blue shiny suit.
The man approached Derenberger and spoke.
Derenberger said the stranger used telepathy to communicate told him that they meant no harm and that he would be in contact with Derenberger in the future. The man identified himself as “Cold.”
With all the strange things that are reported in West Virginia, and all along the Ohio River, its hard to know if Indrid Cold, Mothman, Grinning Man and the collapse of the Silver Bridge are really connected or just a coincidence.
Many see the Mothman as a harbinger of death and disaster, because it was reportedly seen on or around the Silver Bridge shortly before it fell.
Also Mothman was never seen again after the bridge disaster, at least according to some.
It also seems like the mysterious Indrid Cold has also vanished.
While there may continue to be reports of the strange Grinning Man, the name Indrid Cold is rarely attached to the stories.
It would seem that Indrid Cold has entered the realm of urban myth, under the general name of ‘Grinning Man.’
So who was Indrid Cold?
Some say that Indrid Cold was, in fact the Mothman himself.
I’m not really sure why. Maybe just because they seemed to appear and disappear at about the same time.
After all, Mothman was a bizarre creature and anything but human in appearance.
I think Woodrow Derenberger saw something very strange, told the story, and it has now become an urban legend.
There is that strange phone call that the journalist John Keel received though. I don’t know if that was the “real” Indrid Cold or someone who had heard the story and decided to prank Keel.
Whatever the case may be, Indrid Cold is here to stay, under the name Grinning Man.
Here is the 1966 interview with Woodrow Derenberger who described his encounter with the ‘Grinning Man.’ ->>
On March 18, 2011, a strange winged humanoid creature was observed in Butler County.
The sketch of the creature is attached.
Stan Gordon writes,
“On March 21, 2011, I was contacted by a witness who reported having an encounter with a very strange creature during the early morning hours of March 18, 2011.
The incident occurred on a rural road in Butler County between Chicora and East Brady.
The witness, a businessman passing through the area, stated that “this was the freakiest thing I ever saw, and it made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.”
The man told me that he was driving down the road when from about a ¼ mile away, he observed something on the right side in a grassy area. His first thought was that it was a deer.
The driver stepped on the gas to move closer to get a better view. From about 50 yards away, he observed something that appeared to be hunched down, and then stood up.
The driver then observed a very tall muscular creature. At this point, the driver had his high beams on and watched as the creature walked in front of a yellow reflective road sign, then crossed the two lane road in three long steps and continued into a wooded area.
What he saw was a humanoid figure that stood at least 8 feet tall that appeared to have smooth leather-like skin that was of either a darker tan or light brown color.”
“A working knowledge of occult science is indispensable to UFO investigation.” ~ Trevor James
This a long post. However, the dedicated work of Albert S Rosales shows us that the anomalous history of UFOs, humanoids and strange encounters extends far back through the centuries of Earth.
Albert’s work is to be highly commended, as his compilation is key to understanding how significant humanoid and anomalous events are connected to the UFO phenomena and the history of demonology written about in astrological and scriptural texts over the centuries.
The earliest known sightings were reported by astrologers, who were familiar with the night skies, planets and stars as ancient astronomers. There are literally tens of thousands of reports by astrologers of anomalous events in human history.
Although my work as a mundane astrologer and forecaster is known to some people, what some don’t know is that as a polymath I have plenty of other interests that have long coalesced with my advanced astrological work as well as my work as a journalist, writer and editor.
I’ve been an expert on the Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and Anomalous History as well.
I began the study when I was a boy, reading up on all the strange events of UFO history, especially those that pertain to Pennsylvania.
In reading thousands of books, texts, case histories, etc., on anomalies and UFOs, when my editors at Knight-Ridder discovered I was then also assigned the ‘UFO beat’ for my newspaper, where I reported on many sightings and often was asked to also review new books on UFOs for the paper.
On my own time, I spent additional countless hours matching astrological transits to all the historical sightings recorded. Cryptozoology is also one of my areas of expertise.
This took many years, but as a result, all this reading and research gave me a wide perspective and understanding on the overall economic, social, political and most importantly, the human spiritual aspects, of what we call UFOs along with their strange occupants, robots and creatures as part of the anomalous activity connected to them.
The state of Pennsylvania has what I consider, to be among the strangest cases of anomalies, but there are other states, such as Kentucky and West Virginia, along with Ohio and the Great Lakes region, that hold mysteries that to this day remain unsolved.
The UFO investigator Alison A. Kruse of Murrysville, Pennsylvania, has been filming and documenting sightings in her region for years now, which are fascinating to say the least.
In all of my years of reporting, I think that Alison has demonstrated the best observational tactics on UFOs that we’ve seen in many years.
She’s a true star in the field and it’s an honor to have a fellow Pennsylvanian doing fine quality work on this subject.
It is essential to note that ‘observation’ is the prime component of any scientific endeavor.
Yet we have been living in an age of boneheads who offer up mere opinion, personal sentiments and their ‘unbelief’ when faced with overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
So, I basically tell those people that this is STAR TREK and not Gilligan’s Island and to shut up with all their gooberville noise. Anyone who ignores what is going on, and has been going on for centuries is clearly clueless.
Anyway, what follows are a series of very interesting cases that may interest some of you.
The first is excerpted from Stan Gordon’s UFO Anomalies Zone:
‘Has The Winged Humanoid Returned to Butler County, Pennsylvania?’
On March 18, 2011, a strange winged humanoid creature was observed in Butler County. [See drawing of the creature attached with this post.]
Stan Gordon writes,
“On March 21, 2011, I was contacted by a witness who reported having an encounter with a very strange creature during the early morning hours of March 18, 2011.
The incident occurred on a rural road in Butler County between Chicora and East Brady.

‘Butler County, Pennsylvania’
Wikipedia states that,
Butler County is a county located in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. As of the 2010 census, the population was 183,862. Its county seat is the city of Butler.
Butler County is named after Richard Butler, a hero of the American Revolution.
Butler County was created on March 12, 1800, from part of Allegheny County and named in honor of General Richard Butler. It is included in the Pittsburgh Metropolitan Statistical Area.
What I remember about Butler County is that when I was a boy scout, we camped here. I had heard of some the strange sightings in this part of my home state, and even as a boy knew to keep my eyes open when we camped out here.
Anyway, one of the other fascinating tidbits is that many horror films have been shot in Butler County, including 1968′s classic, ‘Night of the Living Dead.
The report continues,
The creature never looked at the witness, and was only observed from its side. The head appeared to be flat in the front section, and then rounded out.
“At the top back of skull, it was like one of those aerodynamic helmets. The top was not quite a point, but looked like a ridge on top of the head.”
The face was flat, and the eyes were not clearly defined, but the man thought that they might have been pointed in the corner.
The ear that was observed on the left side was long and flat, and came up and back and was pointed backwards like a flap.
The arms were muscular and a little longer than that of a human. The hands looked more like a claw, but the number of fingers was unclear.
One physical trait that stood out were the extremely muscular legs. The witness stated that it was hard to explain, but the legs did not move like that of a human, and “looked like they bent backwards.”
The witness also saw what appeared to be wings on its back which were tucked into its body, with the wing tips extending toward the side of its head.
No unusual sounds or smells where noticed during the observation which was estimated to have been about 7-8 seconds.
As the motorist approached the location where the creature entered the woods, it could no longer be seen.
The next day the witness decided to drive back to the location of the encounter to look for any evidence. The ground conditions were not suitable for tracks, and nothing was found.
The witness did, however, measure the road sign that the creature had walked in front of. The sign was just over 8 feet high, and the head of the creature was estimated to have reached about 4 inches above the sign.
Since that initial report that I received concerning this strange encounter, it has been learned that other local residents from that same area also reported seeing a similar unknown creature.
Dan Hageman, Director of BORU (Butler Organization of Research on the Unexplained), also received several reports from that same time period and general location.
The following are some of the BORU summary reports on these incidents:
*March 26, 2011- Kepple’s Corner:
Two witnesses were driving to Butler when they witnessed a dark tan, 8 feet tall winged entity. The face appeared smashed in. It had a muscular body and a head that went to a point.
The arms were long and it appeared to have claws for fingers. When it crossed the road it seemed to lope with each stride.
The witnesses stopped the car in shock and sat there until another car came and they had to move. The witness is willing to take a lie detector test to prove what he saw.
*March 2011-East Brady:
A witness was riding his motorcycle two miles past a custard stand and saw a large animal. It was bent over as if looking for something. As the witness got to within 75 feet of the creature it stood up.
It was at least 8-9 feet tall, and the arms hung down below its knees. The skin looked like leather and it was very dark.
Its eyes were swept up in the corners and it had a pointed head. It was very muscular and looked like it had wings on the side of its head. It also appeared angry.
The creature then bolted into the woods. The witness stated that if anything it was straight from hell and it needed to go back.
*March 2011-Rimersburg:
Two witnesses had just left the ice cream stand headed for Rimersburg and noticed something crossing the road. They came to within about 35 feet of the creature.
They stated that it was at least 9 feet tall and had dark brown skin, long arms and broad shoulders. It had a pointed head, flat forehead, and pointed ears and what appeared to be wings on its back.
The body was extremely muscular and there were four finger-like claws on each hand. The eyes were squinted but swept upwards at the corners.
As the creature turned, the whole body would turn.
The movement of the arms was not normal. The mouth looked like a slit. The wings looked like see-through mesh and resembled wings on a bat.
The claws were black as coal.
The witness stated that this thing was straight from hell.
There is information coming in that a similar creature has been reportedly seen again in the same general areas of Butler County since about mid-July of 2012.
Campers and others are rumored to have seen a strange large winged creature.
If you have seen this creature, or anything else unusual, and want to talk about this confidentially, please contact me via phone or e-mail.”
‘HISTORY’
“UFO behavior is more akin to magic than to physics as we know it. The modern UFOnauts and the demons of past days are probably identical.
“What is quite certain is that the phenomenon is active here on our planet and active here as master.”
~ Dr. Pierre Guerin, an eminent scientist associated with the French National Council for Scientific Research.
Now, astrologically, March 2011 was a significant time in the world.
Over the winter of 2010-2011, I had been working on my mundane forecasts for large magnitude earthquakes, and saw major activity related to the entry of Uranus in Aries in March 2011.
I wrote my forecast for a super-earthquake and tsunami to strike Asia, and it did, Japan.
That was the beginning of the ongoing disaster at Fukushima Daiichi’s Nuclear plant and the poisoning of the Pacific Ocean.
However, also, in February and March 2011, there were additional odd transits I’ve seen before associated with anomalies such as UFO sightings and strange creatures.
I later heard of this particular winged humanoid report, and took another look at the transits of that time and at that region. [See attached horoscope.]
It brought back memories of what I read in reports of winged humanoids in case histories.
For instance,
*On August 31, 1967, José Padrón, a watchman at a construction site in San Luis Potosí, was about to turn in for the night within the cramped confines of the site’s guardhouse.
At around 1:00 a.m., he found himself stirred from his slumber by a noise – someone or something large was making its way around the motor pool.
Bears are not uncommon in northern Mexico, so one could have come down from the mountains to forage. Intruders, whether ursine or human, did not worry Padrón in the least: the latter were usually small-time thieves after spare parts for quick resale, or local adolescent vandals.
But when the watchman stepped out of the tin-roofed guardhouse, the last thing he was expecting to see was a vast, winged shape heading toward him, striding like a giant.
It was the set of wings that etched itself into Padrón’s mind. He would later described them as comparable to those of a small aircraft, and the noise was apparently made as the creature tried to fly away from the construction site.
Outmatched by the intruder, the watchman ran for the precarious safety of the guardhouse, from which he did not emerge until the following day, when Enrique Rueda, the site’s supervising engineer, found the watchman cowering inside.
We can only assume that Rueda listened dispassionately to Padrón’s account of the events, wondering how much pulque – fermented maguey juice – the man had consumed before passing out.
But any doubts in the engineer’s mind were dispelled when he saw footprints not far from the guardhouse.
When measured, the indentations on the sandy ground measured slightly over twelve inches across and were six inches deep – requiring a force estimated at nearly six hundred pounds to create, by Rueda’s reckoning.
With the possible exception of the repeated sightings of West Virginia’s Mothman, events of this kind appear to be a one-off event: the witnesses see the entity once and never again.
But night watchman José Padrón was to have the dubious pleasure of a repeat visit from the winged humanoid on the following night – and on this occasion, it brought a friend.
Stifling his panic, Padrón took a long, hard look at the entities, which left numerous footprints behind as they made their way around the construction site, in search of food, building materials for an unimaginable eyrie in the mountains, who knows.
But the initial winged creature and his mate eventually flew into the darkness, heading toward the San Miguelito Mountains.
Padrón was able to add an extra detail that perhaps dovetailed with engineer Rueda’s calculations of the creature’s weight:
The ground shook as the creatures took off from the premises.
Other evidence suggested that a mesquite branch had been snapped in two as one of the creatures flew by, no small feat considering the strength of the tree.
No samples of hair or feathers were in evidence, either.
Prudently, the supervising engineer ordered that the night watch be increased to twelve unarmed men.
*1984 – Hector Urdiales, a member of Mexico’s Cosmos A.C. paranormal research foundation, decided to lead an investigation on Easter Week 1984 to a seldom-visited area located behind Monterrey’s Cerro de la Silla, an enormous, irregular-shaped hill dominating the city.
Stories of a monstrous winged being prowling the area had come to Urdiales’ attention.
Accompanied by a friend, the explorer stopped at a roadside general store on the road to San Roque, N.L. where he interviewed the owner, who was among the many witnesses to the creature.
They followed his indications as to where to camp and mount their watch. Nothing unusual happened during their first day and night on in the area.
On the following morning, while combing the banks of a stream running through a copse of Savins, Urdiales and his companion made a chilling discovery:
The grass at the base of one of the trees by the stream was covered in the fly-covered blood and entrails of an unknown animal.
Closer inspection revealed that the savin’s entire trunk was streaming with blood flowing from above.
Hesitantly they followed the trail of blood with their eyes until they came upon a surreal sight: some twenty feet off the ground, a large boar had been split open and spitted to a tree limb.
Fear washed over the researchers, since they realized that the tall savin lacked the strong lower limbs which would have assisted a human to deliver the grisly cargo to such a dizzying height; nor could their minds conjure up any feline predator strong enough to drag a two-hundred pound boar up a cactus.
Only a carnivorous winged predator having the wingspan and talons needed to attack that kind of prey could have possibly been responsible for the carnage.
*On July 20, 1994 -
A farm worker at Rancho El Sabino in Monterrey was heading back to his house to have lunch at around eleven o’clock in the morning.
As he walked past a nearby graveyard, the farm worker noticed something emerge from a another footpath at a distance of some hundred feet: as he got closer, he realized that he was looking at a half-human, half-avian creature which seemed indifferent to the startled human’s presence.
The creature continued to walk, chicken-like, down the footpath until it reached a crossroads.
The bird-man then flexed its enormous wings and turned down another path. By the time the farm-worker reached the same intersection, the aberrant figure was now half a mile ahead of him until he lost it from sight altogether.
*April 29 2000 – as Jupiter & Saturn made a new conjunction, in Taurus
Farm worker Jorge Pino reported seeing a strange creature at 8pm under full moonlight. He described as standing 1.50 meters and resembling “a big monkey with clawed arms, enormous fangs, and wings.”
The farmhand sent his mastiff to attack the terrifying presence, and the animal returned to its master with a bloody neck to show for its troubles.
Within weeks, farmers from Tucapel and Huepil were engaged in earnest discussions about something they called el pájaro (The Bird) whose manifestations were accompanied by unusual luminous phenomena and animal mutilations.
In early May 2000, as livestock deaths continued to mount, an officer of the Chilean state police reported seeing something like “a giant bat” engaging in depredations near the city of Angol.
Possibly the closest encounter with one of these entities occurred on May 5, 2000, when Prof. Liliana Romero heard a noise in the courtyard of her building shortly after midnight.
Peering through a window to ascertain the cause of the disturbance, she was startled to see “an immense man, standing two meters tall, his shoulder blades split as though by a pair of wings.”
*Summer 2003 -
The most intriguing case of the Chilean wave of events took place during the Summer of 2003, when researcher Jaime Ferrer of the Calama UFO Center made known the story of a young student known only as ‘Diego,’ a resident of Calama who made frequent trips to the desert community of San Pedro de Atacama to visit his grandfather.
In these visits he was usually accompanied by this two closest friends, known only as Jonathan and Carlos.
Around 9:00 p.m. on July 23, 2003, as both young men were ready to sit down to frugal dinner, they were startled by the howling of the local dogs, who ran to and fro in a frantic effort to get away from something.
The visitors to the small rural house were further alarmed by violent blows rained against the door less than a quarter of an hour later:
Something very large and strong was clawing at the door, trying to get to them.
“Terror seized them,” wrote Ferrer in his report, ” and the youngsters feared for their lives.”
Huddling under blankets and praying fervently that the rickety wooden door would somehow withstand the pounding, Diego heard his grandfather’s voice saying that it was safe to come out, and that “it” had gone away.
