Metallic, egg-shaped object witnessed by Australian UFO researcher and engineer, Bill Chalker
September, 15, 1972 - Australia
Australian UFO researcher and engineer "saw what appeared to be a metallic egg-shaped object traversing the twilight sky, north to south. It was moving in a horizontal trajectory, at a speed roughly equatable to that of a low flying light plane... It had an apparent angular size at arms length of about one inch, and gave me the subjective impression of a sizeable object flying at several hundred feet." View full report

Maureen Puddy's close encounter in Victoria, Australia, 1972
July, 5, 1972 - Frankston, Victoria, Australia
On 5 July 1972, 27-year-old Maureen Puddy saw a ufo on the Alooraduc Road near Frankston, in Victoria, Australia. The object was a huge blue disc, which hovered above, her car as she returned from visiting her son in hospital. Twenty days later, at almost the same spot, it returned. This time it seemed to drain power from the car, causing it to stop; indeed, the car appeared to steer itself to the roadside. A voice in her head told her, 'All your tests will be negative.' It then said: 'Tell media, do not panic. We mean no harm..' View full report

Silver, football-field sized boomerang-shaped UFO over Fort Stockton, Texas
1972 - Fort Stockton, Texas, United States
"There was an Elementary School just a few yards from the corner of Main and Colpits and right up above the school was a Silver object about the size of a Football Field. It hovered about 50 feet above the school and it was shaped like a boomerang. From my position I figured that it was about 10 to 15 feet thick. But the strangest thing about the incident was, how the people in Ft. Stockton reacted to it." View full report
