UFO sightings in China
This is a list of alleged sightings of unidentified flying objects or UFOs in China.
1994
The Meng Zhaoguo Incident refers to a supposed close encounter of the third kind, experienced by a man of the same name, which took place in Red Flag Forest in Heilongjiang.[1]
In 1994, Meng Zhaoguo reported that he and a relative had followed what he thought was a weather balloon after they saw a white, shining object descend into Red Flag Forest.[2] According to his recollection, on finding the downed object, he found that it was in fact a spacecraft, flanked by 3 metres (9.8 ft) tall six-fingered aliens.[1]
After the initial encounter, Meng claimed to be was suffering from ongoing harassment from the entities, and reported being taken to their spacecraft and forced to copulate.[1] He claimed that on the subsequent 17 July he was abducted from his house and shown Jupiter, which the entities claimed was their homeworld.[3]
His story was examined by the UFO Enthusiasts Club at Wuhan University throughout 1997. They concluded that whilst the initial contact may have occurred, the subsequent reported events were almost certainly untrue.[1] However, the state-sponsored UFO Research Society concluded that his claims were true.[2][3]
