The Massena UFO Incident (1954)
The Massena UFO Incident occurred on November 2, 1954, in Massena, New York. The incident is considered to be one of the most well-known and well-documented cases of UFO sightings in the United States. The incident involved a man named William B. Squyres, who reported seeing a UFO and encountering two humanoid beings with blonde hair who communicated with him telepathically.
According to Squyres, he was on his way home from work when he saw a bright light in the sky. As he got closer to the light, he saw a UFO hovering in the air. The UFO was silver and disc-shaped, and had a dome on top. Squyres then noticed two humanoid beings with blonde hair standing outside the craft. The beings were described as being approximately 4 feet tall and wearing silver clothing.
Squyres claimed that the beings communicated with him telepathically, telling him that they were from another planet and were visiting Earth to gather information. The beings then showed Squyres a device that looked like a compass, and told him that it was used for navigation. They also showed him a map of the Earth and pointed out the location of their planet.
The encounter lasted for approximately 30 minutes, and during that time, Squyres reported feeling a sense of calm and peace. After the beings left, the UFO took off at high speed and disappeared into the sky. Squyres reported the incident to the police, and it was investigated by several officials and researchers, including J. Allen Hynek.
The Massena UFO Incident gained significant media attention, and Squyres was interviewed by several newspapers and radio programs. He also gave lectures about his encounter, and his story became the basis for several books and documentaries.
One of the unique details of the Massena UFO Incident is the description of the blonde-haired humanoid beings. This is a common feature in many UFO encounters, and is often associated with the idea of Nordic aliens. The incident is also notable for the level of documentation and investigation it received, which has led many researchers and enthusiasts to consider it as one of the most credible and well-documented cases of UFO sightings in history.
Books written about the incident include “UFOs and the National Security State: The Cover-Up Exposed, 1973-1991” by Richard M. Dolan, which includes a chapter on the Massena Incident, and “The UFO Book: Encyclopedia of the Extraterrestrial” by Jerome Clark, which briefly describes the incident.
