Marina, a local student at Kiev's T G Shevchenko University, was staying at a home at the northern end of town and one day was drawing pictures in the verandah when she suddenly felt as if she had come under a state of hypnosis (mind control?). Someone then opened the closed verandah door. When Marina turned around to look she saw two male humanoid figures. One was about 2 to 2.5 meters in height reaching the ceiling; the second was about 1.5m in height. Both were dressed in turquoise or blue shiny coveralls. They had large eyes without pupils. The tall humanoid wore a small cap on his head; the smaller alien was absolutely hairless, wearing a tight-fitting skullcap. Extremely fearful, Marina was unable to utter a word. The strangers could obviously read her mind, so they began to answer her questions by using telepathy. She heard a voice in her head, "You want to see our ship? It is beyond the forest". The smaller alien stretched his hand toward her, his hand was very thin and delicate, fearful Marina retreated back and sat on the chair. Then the two humanoids walked out the closed verandah doors. After they left, Marina regained control of her senses, she felt an unusual energy within her body. She decided to follow the aliens. She went outside but could not see the aliens anywhere. But she remembered that they had mentioned that their ship was beyond the forest and she then follow the only narrow road into the forest. She hurried down the path and at about 500 meters into the pine forest she noticed flashes of light and when she passed by a small copse she came over a large gully and in the gully she saw the spaceship. She described it as a large disc-shaped object, resting on a tripod-leg landing gear. The craft had round windows that gave off a black and white light from a television set. The tall alien was standing close to the disk. As she watched, no one noticed her. She stared at the scene as if hypnotized or charmed. In about 5 minutes the lights on the craft dimmed and it became dark. Suddenly, Marina felt an immense fear, an uncommon fear apparently generated by the aliens themselves (for protection?). In a state of horror she rushed home. The next morning she visited the landing place and noticed an area of matted down grass but did not dare descend into the gully. After the incident Marina began drawing pictures of space or alien themes, however she was never able to duplicate the alien object that she witnessed.
