I was forced to split my post up into several parts. This is the third part that focuses on the 1960-1969 incidents and events.
Part 1: A History Lesson on UFOs: From 1440 B.C.E to 1949 – Part 1
Part 2: A History Lesson on UFOs: From 1950-1959 – Part 2
Part 3: A History Lesson on UFOs: From 1960-1969
Part 5: A History Lesson on UFOs: From 1980-1999
Part 6: A History Lesson on UFOs: From 2000-2024
The playlist these post are structured after can be found here: UFO Encounters: A Complete Timeline & Comprehensive UFO Adjacent Rabbit Hole Guide
UFO Encounters: A Timeline – 1970-1979
A lot of the more famous and/or most compelling and credible cases have more than one video attached to them, in order to cover the incidents as thoroughly as possible. However, it would be a very long post, if I were to link to all of the seperate videos covering a single case.
Instead I’ll link to the first video of the incident on my playlist and list the number of videos next to the link, so you’ll know which ones to look out for.
It’s not necessarily the best video on the incidents i’ll link to in this instance. Just the first video on my playlist. You’ll find the others by checking the next couple of videos on the playlist, as they’re all listed chronologically.
If you feel like there are cases missing, there is a good chance you’ll find them in one of the UFO adjacent topics on my playlist, which you will find in this post and on my playlist respectively.
You will, for example, find most abductions cases in the UFO adjacent topics section, as I’ve mostly only included the more famous abduction cases on the actual timeline. The same with most cases from the Soviet Union.
Most documentaries on this playlist are placed under their release year, unless they’re directly related to one of the UFO adjacent topics at the end or I couldn’t track down the release date and year.
Small disclaimers:
1) The chronology of this timeline is mostly by year, and not so much by the exact dates and months of the incidents. Only some of the incidents will be precise with what came before and after during those years, but really only the ones where the chronology of the dates matter the most. My written timeline will be much more accurate, and include specific dates.
2) A lot of the titles to the various incidents are just copy-pasted from the youtube videos. In the written timelines I’ll try to come up with shorter and less clickbaity titles for each case.
3) I’m still going through videos from various channels, to determine which to add, so there might be some events missing from the timeline. As I continue to add videos to the playlist, I will also continue to update this post whenever a new incident has been added.
