Newark Valley, New York: Farmer Gary Wilcox talks with two small beings at hovering craft
At 10:00 a.m. on 24 April 1964 dairy farmer Gary Wilcox of Newark Valley, New York, came upon a hovering egg-shaped object at the edge of a wood and talked with two 4-foot figures in silvery garments carrying soil and plant samples; small depressions and a red, jelly-like substance remained.
Background
Gary Wilcox, a dairy farmer of Newark Valley, New York, was driving a tractor on his property when he saw a shiny object at the inside edge of a patch of woods. He approached the egg-shaped object, 20 feet long, 16 feet wide and 4 feet high, hovering two feet above the ground with a sound like an idling car, and touched hard metal. Two figures 4 feet tall in seamless silvery garments appeared from under it, each carrying a tray of alfalfa, roots, soil, leaves and brush; a voice told him not to be alarmed, and they asked about his work, asked for some of his manure, talked about space exploration and claimed to be from Mars. The object then took off horizontally, leaving small depressions where the figures had stood and a thin, red, jelly-like substance.
