(This post / thread spun off from the World Contact Day thread)
Tomorrow is World UFO Day: an annual event that encourages us to ponder the possibility that unidentified flying objects – also known as flying saucers - are not only real but may actually be vehicles from other worlds.
This year, World UFO Day being held on 2 July to commemorate the famous flying saucer crash on a farm near Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. Most people will be familiar with the “Roswell Incident”. But what about the UFO crash in Manorhamilton or the one in Portglenone?
You see, UFOs crash all the time – and sometimes they crash on this side of the Atlantic.
THE MONEYMORE MATTER
On 7 September 1956, a red, egg-shaped object landed in bogland belonging to Thomas and Maud Hutchinson, in Moneymore, County Derry. As the object was quite small, Thomas believed he could carry it to the police station in nearby Loup village.
The route to Loup was blocked by a hedge, though, and getting through it required Thomas to set the UFO on the ground. Which was a mistake.
"Then all of a sudden the monster rose and it nearly pulled my husband off his feet when he tried to hold it," Maud recalled shortly after the incident. "I started to panic and then I ran home and prayed." ...
THE PORTGLENONE EPISODE
A seven-foot-wide UFO that resembled a black cloud whizzed over Joseph Bennett’s head at “many times the speed of a jet plane” and crashed through a row of trees in Bracknamuckley, County Antrim, on Sunday, 28 December 1958.
While the UFO continued on its journey as if nothing had happened, a 40-foot oak tree came crashing to the ground. It had been cut clean through. ...
