The 1984
UFO Chronology
Created: March 15, 2008; updated 19 Aug 2020 This is currently a 14-page chronology of UFO incidents and events for 1984. Our thanks for these chronologies must go to Richard Hall (the original 1984 chronology from UFOE II), Dan Wilson (archive researcher), and Jean Waskiewicz (online NICAP DBase [NSID]). You will note the many foreign reports that we are now being able to access. Our special thanks to Dan Wilson for getting those to us. As more come in, this page will be updated. Previous chronologies (1947 to 1969) involved the expertise of two other team members: William Wise (Project Blue Book Archive) and Brad Sparks (Comprehensive Catalog of Project Blue Book Unknowns). Bob Gribble's entries are those filed with the National UFO Reporting Center in Seattle, Washington, now operated by Peter Davenport.

Aggressive dogs become uneasy in presence of red light. Jan. 3, 1984; Lake Michigan
4:14 AM. An ovoid UFO flew low over Lake
Michigan and was sighted by three women in Port
Washington, Wisconsin. The UFO had three
portholes. (Source: Donald R. Schmitt,

Jan. 8, 1984; Framingham, MA
3:00 AM. EST. In the witness's bedroom a
short humanoid pointed a beam at the witness in
bed. The witness felt that the being could
telepathically read her mind. When the being had
left a three-foot long by 18" cylinder shot
straight up into the sky outside. (Source: MUFON
UFO Journal, August 1991).
Jan. 8, 1984; outside Cozad, NE
3:15 AM. CST. On Interstate 80 three people driving in a van outside Cozad saw a 100-foot diameter disc hover 80 feet over the highway. It was blazingly brilliant and had more than 15 colored circular lights around the rim. They heard an intermittent beeping on the van's CB radio. (Source: International UFO Reporter, March 1984, p. 10). Jan. 9, 1984; Capron, IN 6:30 AM. While driving his truck down a country road, the witness observed a large meteor-like object in a high speed vertical descent to the left of his vehicle. He lost sight of the object for a few seconds at tree level. Suddenly, an object covered with white lights appeared at treetop level on the left side of his vehicle, maneuvered around behind the truck, then passed the truck on the right side and moved down the highway and out of sight. The driver described the object as looking like a football turned up on end, metallic-grey in color, about 150 feet tall and moving about 50 feet off the ground and about 100 feet from his vehicle. He could detect no sound and observed the object for about one minute. (MUJ-190) Jan. 9, 1984; Pearsonville, CA
7:30 PM. A metallic object described as blimp
like with red lights buzzed two cars on US
Highway 395 south of Pearsonville, near the
China Lake Weapons Center in Kern County on a
clear night. (Sources: APRO Bulletin, November

Jan. 9, 1984; 10 miles west of
Torrington, CT
9:30 PM. Mr. & Mrs. Sprinster had a
close encounter with a multi-colored
triangular shaped UFO 10 miles west of
Torrington on Route 4. The object moved very
slowly, and dropped in altitude to pace
their car. Its underside was crisscrossed
with tubes and grill work. A red light in
the center of the object detached, circled
the object three times, then returned back
to its original position. It left by making
a sharp turn to the south. The encounter
lasted 10 minutes. (Source: Philip J.
Imbrogno, Contact of the 5th Kind, p. 9).
Jan. 9, 1984; North of Hawthorne, NJ
9:33 PM. Two witnesses in a car
driving north of Hawthorne saw two
silent 75-foot in diameter parabolic
discs 200 feet above SR 208. The objects
seemed to be avoiding being seen by
passing cars. (Source: Robert Gribble,
MUFON UFO Journal, December 1983, p. 5).
Jan. 9, 1984; North of Mojave, Kern County,
CA
10:30 PM. Several independent witnesses
reported seeing a huge silent cigar shaped
object over the highway on SR 14 15 miles north
of Mojave, Kern County, California. It was only
100 feet over the road and had red lights on the
bottom; it flew off to the north. (Source:
Robert Gribble, MUFON UFO Journal, December
1984, p. 5).
Jan. 21, 1984; Near Jasper, NY
9:30 PM. While driving home to Edison, a mother and two children watched in amazement as an enormous gold, oval-shaped object appeared to pace their car. As they watched, the object appeared to land on a nearby ridge and after a few seconds it ascended into the sky. The mother said the object repeated this maneuver several times and when she increased and decreased the speed of the car, the object did the same. At one time the object moved across the sky, then returned to the area near her car. (Bob Gribble) Jan. 22, 1984; 30 miles East of Toledo,
OH
7:25 AM. The cabin crew of United Airlines flight 729, flying westbound at 43,000 feet, observed a blurry bright red object about the size of a DC-9 airliner move from northeast to southwest. The object, which was in view for only a few seconds, left a contrail which the airliner passed through. Jan. 22, 1984; Nr. Way Cross. GA
7:00 PM. While parked in a wooded area, a young couple spotted a large object approaching their car at treetop level. The object crossed the logging road near their car, went across an open area to a stand of trees, then turned end-for-end. At this point the driver put the car in gear and started down the road at a high rate of speed. Then the object made its way back toward the road and took a position directly over the car at a very low altitude. The object had an L-shaped light pattern on the underside with two brilliant red lights and one green light. The glow from the red lights lit up the inside of the car and both occupants became hysterical. When the car reached the county road, the driver turned left and the object turned right. Then the object swung around and moved in behind the car and followed the fleeing vehicle for about 75 feet, turned left, and moved away at a high rate of speed. The sheriffs office received several calls about a strange lighted object in the area that night. (Bob Gribble) Jan. 22, 1984; Arnold, MO
7:00 PM. Two occupants of a car observed a circular object with three brilliant white lights and a corona of white light covering its entire surface. As the object approached the car the driver made a 180 degree evasive turn only to have the object pull alongside and pace his vehicle. After about three minutes the object pulled away and left the area. The driver estimated that the object got to within 150 feet of the car, maintained an altitude of about 150 feet and was at least 25 feet in diameter. A vertical shaft of white light was also observed coming from the top of the object. After arriving home two witnesses observed three helicopters moving about in the area where the object was seen. Jan. 22, 1984; Huntington, WV
7:09 PM. On the way outdoors to start his car the witness observed a large brilliant ball of orange light in a stationary position about 900 feet above the neighbors house. The glow from the ball illuminated the entire ground area. After watching the object for about a minute it suddenly moved to the west at a high rate of speed. He detected no sound coming from the object. (Bob Gribble) Jan. 27. 1984; Valley Center, CA
5:40 AM. Four witnesses observed five large, brilliant, stationary white lights in the northern sky. Four of the lights were in a diamond formation with the fifth light in the center of the formation. After watching the display for several minutes they noticed smaller white lights maneuvering around the large lights. The small lights increased in number to a total of about 100 within a few minutes. Suddenly the formation moved away to the northwest and was accompanied by the small lights. As the formation started to move, the witnesses detected a soft humming sound. When first sighted the lights were estimated to be two miles distant. The observation lasted for about eight minutes. (Bob Gribble) Jan. 27, 1984; King Of Prussia, PA
6:15 AM. Two young boys delivering papers observed a big circular object with lights around the edge hovering over houses about two blocks distant. They watched the object for several seconds, then it ascended into the sky at about a 45 degree angle. The boys did not detect any sound. (Bob Gribble) Jan. 28. 1984; Flemington, NJ
6:30 PM. A young couple sighted an orange ball descending through the cloud layer and appeared to land on a ridge behind the tree line. Twenty minutes later the husband observed a big, bright object ascending vertically from the same ridge, pause in mid-air, then move horizontally and disappear in the distance. The object that descended appeared to be as big as a hot air balloon. (The Center received 55 calls from a 15 county area describing the descent of a glowing object over New Jersey.) Jan. 30, 1984; 40 miles west of
Miami, FL
9:00 PM. Mine men working on an oil platform observed a bright orange object descending from the sky at a high rate of speed. When at an estimated altitude of 10,000 feet and about five miles distant, the object came to an instant stop. The bright orange glow faded and the crew observed an object with a bright chrome dome-shaped top and dozens of flashing lights on the underside. All witnesses agreed that the object was huge: no less than 200 feet in diameter. After remaining stationary for about ten seconds the object turned a bright orange and instantly moved away to the east at a high rate of speed. The total observation time was about one minute. (A witness at Jensen Beach, about 100 miles northeast of the oil platform, observed the object dropping from the sky in a high speed vertical descent. Two witnesses in the Miami area also saw the object; one while the object was stationary west of Miami and the other while the object was moving to the east.) (Bob Gribble) Jan. 28, 1984; Flemington, NJ
6:30 PM. An orange sphere was seen to land on
a ridge. Two witnesses saw the UFO descend and
land, while many others saw a bigger object rise
from the same spot 20 minutes later. (Source:
International UFO Reporter, March 1984, p. 7).
Feb. 3, 1984; Tingsryd, Sweden
1:00 AM. Mr. Jonsson was driving home when he
saw a disc-shaped object 80 meters across and some
5-10 meters above the road ahead of him. He got to
his home, got his camera, and went back to the
site of his encounter. His car stalled, and he
recalled seeing several beings who attempted to
abduct him. He had nearly two hours of missing
time. An independent witness verified seeing the
UFO. (Sources: Doris Graziano, APRO Bulletin, June
1985, p. 8; Thomas E. Bullard, UFO Abductions: The
Measure of a Mystery, case 270).
Feb. 7, 1984; Atco, NJ
4:00 AM. The witness awoke to a loud humming
sound and found his room illuminated by a bright
light. He got out of bed and went to the window
and saw a bright white circular object with a
hump on top in a stationary position about four
feet above his neighbors yard. He estimated that
the object was about 200 feet from him and the
size of a small car. He saw an image like a man
next to the object. The image vanished and the
object ascended in a zigzag pattern, then moved
away at a high rate of speed. The witness felt
he observed the object for no more than ten
seconds. He checked with the neighbors and they
said they didn't see or hear anything.
Feb. 22. 1984; Columbus, OH 4:00 PM. This sighting was by five highly educated witnesses. The object's appearance underwent a regular change (possible rotation) approximately every 60 seconds from an upside-down ice cream cone to a rectangle. No circular or balloon-shaped component was visible above it and it appeared to have traveled 5-10 miles during the period of observation. It was first sighted over the Ohio State University and traveled to the northeast. It appeared higher in elevation than the aircraft leaving Port Columbus airport, but otherwise its elevation could not be determined. An investigator, Warren Nicholson, said that in checking with Port Columbus (east of the sighting location) immediately after the sighting, he found that the ground wind speed was 0 and that the airport radar had not detected anything. (MUJ-217) Feb. 29, 1984; Columbus, OH
3:30 PM. On the campus of Ohio State
University in Columbus, Ohio witnesses
observed a black sphere half a meter in
diameter that hovered just over a University
building, then shot off very fast toward the
southeast. (Source: MUFON UFO Journal, May
1986).
Feb. 29, 1984; Mechanicsburg, PA
9:00 PM. A man and his dog in
Mechanicsburg witnessed a 40 foot wide
diamond-shaped object wobbling in the
southeast sky at an estimated 50 feet
altitude. He also reported interference on
his TV set. (Source: MUFON UFO Journal,
April 1984).
March 6, 1984; west of Norris, SD
10:00 PM. A large boomerang or
U-shaped UFO was seen by two police
officers, Jensen and Myers, west of
Norris, South Dakota, after having been
called out on a reported sighting of the
UFO by a citizen ten minutes earlier.

A mother and daughter observed a
large cylindrical-shaped UFO
hovering outside their family room
window in Wolcott, Connecticut. The
object was just seven feet above the
ground, and only four feet from the
window. It made no sound, and stayed
there for seven minutes. (Source:

His wife was inside sleeping and two of his neighbors had just left after stopping to visit him. He was working by electric light and suddenly noticed everything around him became brightly lit. He looked up to see that the light source was a brilliant orange-colored light, low in the northwest. He said that it was totally silent and there was only the light, no craft could be seen. He went inside to call his two neighbors to come back and see the strange light, but did not wake his wife who is a sound sleeper. He then went back outside and the UFO was there as it was before. Approximately ten to fifteen minutes had passed since he first noticed the light and it then began to drift away to the northwest where he lost sight of it. Shortly, his neighbors arrived but they did not see the UFO and teased him about seeing things. Object reportedly 400-500 feet away.

July 15, 1984; northwest of Detroit, ME
9:05 PM. Carol Cloukey and Robert White
had been on their way to Pittsfield, Maine
for dinner. After traveling about a mile
they rounded a bend and Carol, who was
driving, was the first to see a bright
yellowish-orange light. Suddenly the light
made a perfect vertical drop in mid-air.
They sped up to get ahead of the object, but
the light dropped lower again, and was now
dead center above the car windshield. Carol
stopped and slammed the car into reverse.
After backing up about 50 feet they saw that
the object was alongside of them on the left
side of the car and about 150 off the
ground. The glow had subsided, and in the
evening twilight it appeared grayish in
color, triangular shaped, and larger than a
747 aircraft. It had 4 red lights and 1 or 2
brighter white lights. It made no sound.
Robert opened his door to see if it was
possible to make a 180-degree turn, and he
told her to back into the driveway of a
farmhouse. The object was now almost
directly above them at an approximate
altitude of 100 feet. He observed that when
they stopped the UFO stopped, and when they
moved the UFO moved! It became apparent that
"it" did not want to let them go. Robert got
out of the car and started to run toward the
farmhouse. Carol called to him that another
car was coming down the road. The UFO now
began to move away slightly, traveling in a
northeasterly direction for a distance of a
few hundred feet when it suddenly vanished
right before their eyes. Robert later
expressed wonderment that such a large
object could suddenly disappear in such an
inexplicable manner. They estimated that the
total incident took about two minutes to
transpire. (Source: Leland Bechtel, MUFON
