DETAILED ALIEN CLOSE ENCOUNTER IN NEW ZEALAND

 

JULY 13, 1959    ….    BLENHEIM NEW ZEALAND

On July 13, 1959 in Blenheim, New Zealand, Mrs. Moreland saw a sharply- outlined saucer-shaped object with two extremely bright sources of green light on the underside. The object was approximately 20 to 30 feet wide and hovered at roof-top level, about 15 feet above the ground. Inside a transparent dome, she said, there were two men, “dressed in fairly close-fitting suits of shiny material.  “Mrs. Frederick Moreland, of Blenheim, New Zealand, a busy housewife with five children, was helping her husband tend their small nine-acre farm as well as working part-time as a nurse’s aid at Lister Hospital, in Blenheim, at the time her sighting occurred.  On July 13, 1959, at 5:50 a.m., it was dark with a low cloud cover when Mrs. Moreland went to the barn to do the morning milking. She noticed a green glow in the overcast and was half-way across the paddock when she saw two large green lights emerge from the clouds and descend rapidly toward the ground, in her direction.  “I noticed that I was bathed in a green light and that all the paddock was green, too,” she later reported. In her written statement to the local police, she said that it was so bright she could not see her own “torchlight” in the green glare.  “It was a horrid sort of color. My first thought was, `I shouldn’t be here, ‘and I made a dive for the trees on the other side of the paddock.”  In the protection of the trees, Mrs. Moreland saw a sharply- outlined saucer-shaped object with two extremely bright sources of green light on the underside. The light from these sources beamed out over an area of 50 yards. Two rows of jets around the center of the object “shot out orange-colored flame” and appeared to revolve in opposite directions. The object was approximately 20 to 30 feet wide and hovered at roof-top level, about 15 feet above the ground. It was no more than 50 yards away from her.

  “The jets stopped,” Mrs. Moreland said, “and a light was switched on in what appeared to be a perspex or glass roof or dome, which glowed.” (Compare with the Ririe and Idaho Falls, Idaho, cases of late 1967) She said the bottom appeared to be of a grayish, metallic color.  There was a faint hum as the object hovered “and the air became very warm.” Inside the transparent dome, she said, there were two men, “dressed in fairly close-fitting suits of shiny material.” She compared the material to aluminum foil. She said the occupants wore “opaque helmets” that rose straight from their shoulders. They seemed to be of normal size. She noted that one of the occupants never moved.  I could not see their faces,” she said. “One of the men stood up and put two hands out in front of him, as if leaning over to look downwards.  After a minute or two, the jets started off again and, tilting slightly at first, the thing shot up vertically at great speed and disappeared into the clouds. When it did this, it made a soft but high-pitched sound.” She reported that a peculiar smell, somewhat similar to pepper, lingered in the air as the object departed.  Mrs. Moreland stood in the trees for several minutes, not knowing exactly what to do. She finally went on with her milking but was so disturbed by what she had seen that, at 7:00 a.m., she went back into the house and told her husband what had happened. Mr. Moreland, employed by the Royal New Zealand Air Force, suggested that she call the police, which she did.  An official enquiry began which included an investigation by the RNZAF. Mrs. Moreland’s report was given wide coverage in the press and some time later it was learned that about an hour before Mrs. Moreland’s sighting a Blenheim man named Holdaway had seen a white-orange object through his window.  Many people subsequently interviewed the witness, who impressed them with her straightforward account of what she had seen. NICAP has a copy of the witness’ first-hand, signed report of the incident. Dr. James E. McDonald, during a trip to Australia and New Zealand in 1967, had the opportunity to interview the witness and he told NICAP that he had been quite favorably impressed.  NOTE: The above image is a witness rendering
