People are always drawn to the mysterious.
Throughout the history of mankind there were many mentions of unidentified flying objects, and some of them were even captured on camera. In this list you will learn about the earliest evidence for UFOs, documented happy and frightened witnesses. By the way, about contacts with extraterrestrial civilizations, it was even said by a very reputable historical personalities.
10. Edmund Halley saw not only the comet
The astronomer Edmund Halley (Edmond Halley), who became the first person reported to Halley’s comet, in my entire scientific career managed to watch 2 other unidentified objects flying high over the earth several centuries ago.
The first case occurred in March 1676. Then Halley wrote that it was the “vast body apparently bigger than the moon.” According to estimates of astronomers, the object flew at a height of 64 kilometers directly above it. Halley also noted that the body was making a sound like “rumble of the cart, rushing through the stones.” After watching the flight of the UFO for several minutes, the scientist calculated that the speed of the object was more than 15 500 kilometres per hour.
9. The Campaign Of Alexander The Great
In 329 BC, during the military campaign of Alexander the Great and his army crossed the river. Then his people saw in the sky the silver shields with fire rings around. The objects several times he dived in the air directly to the unit, while the soldiers and elephants and horses are not scared so refused to go further. Alexander with his army in that day and could not cross the river, and the team had to repeat the attempt the next morning.
8. The crash in Aurora, Texas, USA
In 1897, many years before the UFO crash in Roswell (Roswell, American town), in the United States, there was another mysterious disaster. About 6 in the morning in the town of Aurora, Texas (Aurora, Texas), an unidentified ship dropped directly into the mill local judge Proctor (Proctor). The object exploded into many small fragments. In the process of cleaning the debris on some of them was allegedly discovered an alien script resembling hieroglyphics.
Also at the scene was found and severely mutilated corpse of the “Martian pilot”. The city authorities decided to bury him in their cemetery, where the substance of the idea is still buried under a layer of soil. However, to visit the grave you are unlikely, because someone stole the marker indicating the exact location of the “alien”.
7. Alien battle in Marseille, France
The evening of 25 Aug 1608 near the French city of Marseille (Marseilles) people noticed a lonely space ship moving in the sky on a chaotic trajectory. At some point, the object hovered between heaven and earth, and from it emerged two beings, who began to fight each other. A similar scene was observed in area of nice (Nice).
Similar battle a UFO occurred a few kilometers away in another town – Genoa (Genoa). According to contemporaries the next week there was a heavy shower of red. Memories of so many people almost do not give reason for doubt, and what is particularly interesting is one and the same event described strangers to each other people who lived in times when aircraft were not yet in Vogue.
6. Celestial geometry and Nuremberg, Germany
On the morning of April 14, 1561 the citizens of Nuremberg (Nuremberg) had the opportunity to observe the incredible action right in the sky. According to the Germans, they saw two giant black cylinder was released into the air black and blue spheres, blood red crosses and white discs. The show lasted about an hour, and at the end of some of the fantastic shapes headed straight for the rising sun. Witnesses also reported that they had seen the fall of several objects outside of the city.
The local newspaper wrote about the following: “the balls were going in a series of three pieces, sometimes form a quadrilateral, and some were flying separately. Between them floated crosses the color of blood. Residents saw 2 huge pipes, which also had 3 or 4 balls. All of these elements seemed to fight each other”.
5. Battle in Basel, Switzerland
At dawn on 7 August 1566 residents of the Swiss city Basel (Basel) saw the black spheres involved in a unique air battle during the whole 4 hours.
Samuel Coccius (Samuel Coccius), who described the incident in the local newspaper, spoke about the following: “When the sun has risen, the citizens saw the large black balls, moving at high speed towards the sun. At some point, they turned around and started to fight with each other. During the battle many balls bought red and exploded. It seems that the way they were killed.”
4. New Zealand a few weeks watched a UFO
For nearly a month in the winter of 1909 in new Zealand Newspapers published news about the unidentified flying aircraft of different sizes and shapes. News reported the appearance of UFOs in different parts of the country. The places where these objects are seen most often, has become so popular that in the hope of seeing Ghost ships people came here just to spend hours watching the night sky.
The appearance of a UFO occurred both day and night, but nobody has been able to approach these objects closer than 30 meters. According to official data, during the appearance in the sky of New Zealand these aircraft there were to be no ordinary plane. According to numerous witnesses, the UFO began their demonstration in the southern part of the country, then moved North, and eventually went to Australia.
3. Case Boston, Massachusetts
In 1639, in the skies over Boston (Boston) Americans noticed a strange light. Beam with high speed is moved over the Charles river (Charles River) from the Park Back Bay Fens to the Charleston (Back Bay Fens, Charlestown). Governor John Winthrop (John Winthrop) even made an entry about this unique glow in his personal diary. The testimony of Winthrop can be considered quite credible, since he was a man with a good reputation and high status.
The Governor wrote the following: “this year James Averell (James Everell), sober and discreet man, and two others of his companions saw in the sky over the river muddy (Muddy) in bright light. When the light stopped, he suddenly broke out and became a size of nearly 3 meters, and then with the speed of arrows rushed in the direction of Charleston. Almost 2 or 3 hours this beam that soared, then fell down. The men were followed for an unknown heavenly fire half a kilometer, but eventually he disappeared from sight in the same place where he was seen in the beginning. Several credible people told me the same thing about a strange light in the same place.”
2. Witnesses from Windsor castle, England
Evening 9:45, August 18, 1783 on the terrace of Windsor castle rested for 4 people. Suddenly they saw in the sky a luminous object. Descriptions of this phenomenon are very similar to the meteor, except for the part where witnesses reported a temporary UFO hovering about his multi-colored iridescence. A year later in the scientific journal “Philosophical transactions of the Royal society” appeared a report confirming the words of Windsor witnesses. In the article dealt with the oblong cloud moving more or less parallel to the horizon. Under the cloud was seen a luminous object which soon took the form of a sphere. The ball initially seemed to pale blue, but then the brightness suddenly increased, and the object departed to the East, dazzling flashing. Then he changed direction and headed toward the Southeast, again moving parallel to the ground. The light sphere was emitted was so bright that it illuminated all around, like the risen in the middle of the night, the sun.
1. Pharaoh Thutmose III also saw a UFO
There is an assumption that the papyrus tulli (Tulli Papyrus) is the oldest written evidence of contact with UFOs, documented in ancient Egypt. The papyrus consists of records about the Pharaoh Tuthmosis III (Thutmose), who ruled in the period from 1504 to 1450 BCE. If you believe the chronicle, paranormal activity happened in 1480 BC.
In the Chronicles describes the divine fire disk, suddenly came down from heaven. The sphere emitted a “foul mouth, but she had no head.” The size of the disc was 1 rod long and 1 rod in width (an ancient unit of measure approximately 46 cm). Confused scribes knelt before the fire, and hastened to report it to the Pharaoh. Thutmosis ordered to observe the area, and he fell into a deep meditation about what happened. A few days later it has not been a single UFO, but several celestial objects, which shone brighter than the sun itself. When the spheres rose high into the sky and disappeared from view, to land birds and fish. In order to appease the gods, the Pharaoh ordered to light the incense, and ordered the scribes to write about glow in the chronicle.
If your curiosity has burned, here’s 2 incredible case of the past years:
Observations Jose Bonilla
In 1883, Mexican astronomer Jose Bonilla (Jose Bonilla) was seen in the misty sky a object passing directly in front of the solar disk. In the end, in the sun he managed to count several hundred of dark spots, moving very fast high in the sky. The astronomer carefully recorded and documented everything I saw, making a few shots. Bonilla believed that it was a UFO, and tried to find the incident any other explanation.
Three years later, the Board of the French astronomical journal speculated that the photos are either birds or the camera lens was out running bugs. In 2011, three Mexican researchers have suggested another version that sounds much better against accusations of incompetence in French their overseas colleagues. Astronomers believe that, because just 2 days Bonilla counted in the sky 447 objects, it could be an exploding comet.
Christopher Columbus
11 October 1492 avoiding the deck of the ship Santa Maria (Santa Maria), Christopher Columbus saw “a light glimmering at a great distance from the earth.” He hurried to call his colleague Pedro Gutierrez (Pedro Gutierrez), who also testified about the unusual glow. The beam disappeared and reappeared several times in the middle of the night, moving up and down, and constantly flashing.
4 hours after the incident, the sailors discovered America. Columbus later said that the mysterious light was a sign that they will sail to a new land and open up hitherto unknown land.
Believe it or not all of the above – a personal matter. But just think, is it so unlikely that somewhere in the midst of vast expanses of space are watching us, the inhabitants of other planets? Really except Terran in the world of other living beings?
