'Anne' of Johannesburg: her daughter's night of sixteen bell-shaped craft in the Nevada desert
1992 ยท a mountain in the desert about an hour and a half's walk from Las Vegas, Nevada, Las Vegas, United States
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
Anne told Radio 702 that in January 1992 her daughter was invited by a scientist boyfriend, working on a secret assignment in the Nevada desert, to see something phenomenal. With two photographers, a video cameraman and another scientist they drove from Las Vegas, walked about ninety minutes into the desert and, holding special permits, climbed a mountain. Around 11 p.m. she counted sixteen bell-shaped craft with dancing lights rising and falling very fast while US Air Force helicopters circled; one hovered, beamed a light on the group and ordered them out of the restricted area. After their permits were checked they were taken to the air force base, sworn to secrecy and told a lift descended eleven levels to craft from other galaxies. Anne added that a faxed Earth Changes Report promised more sightings and robotic craft, and mentioned Jim Hurtak.
What Hind made of it
Hind finds the story incongruous, since civilians warned off by the Air Force were then shown secrets unknown to the world; she does not think Anne's daughter concocted a hoax but, citing Vallee's Revelations, thinks it may be a hoax perpetrated by the US Air Force, and wonders why James Hurtak's name was raised.
