Seven feet tall, not three — and nobody agrees on where they came from.
THINK ABOUTIT’S ALIEN TYPE SUMMARY
“Moon” Eyed People
The documented Moon-Eyed People stand 7 to 8 feet tall with pale blue skin — not the small, 3-to-4-foot beings this page previously described. That smaller figure appears to belong to a different legendary Cherokee people entirely, the Yunwi Tsunsdi (“Little People”), mistakenly merged here with the Moon-Eyed People under one profile. What the actual sources say is thinner and stranger than either invented version: extreme light sensitivity, deep cavern dwellings somewhere beneath the Ozarks, and three competing, unreconciled theories about who they really are — Moon-encountered beings, misidentified Nordics, or descendants of Noah.
Name: “Moon” Eyed People
AKA: None documented — their actual name is stated to be unknown. Note: the Yunwi Tsunsdi (“Little People”) are a distinct legendary Cherokee people, described elsewhere as small in stature, and should not be treated as another name for the Moon-Eyed People; no source reviewed here identifies the two as the same.
Location – Home System: No home planet is given in any source. One source places them in deep cavern systems reported beneath the general region of the Ozarks and Arkansas.
Distance from Earth: Not applicable / Undocumented
Attitude: Undocumented
Motives: Undocumented
Physical Appearance: Described as 7 to 8 feet (2.1–2.4 m) tall, with pale blue skin. Their defining feature, and the source of their name, is a pair of large “wrap-around” eyes that are extremely sensitive to light. This is a tall people, not the small, 3-to-4-foot beings previously described on this page.

- Body Temperature: Undocumented
- Pulse/Respiration: Undocumented
- Blood Pressure: Undocumented
- Life Expectancy: Undocumented
- Hair: Undocumented
- Skin: Pale blue (see also “Blue” People)

Other Physical Information: Undocumented beyond the description above
Special Traits and Abilities: Undocumented beyond an extreme sensitivity to light, consistent across sources
Communication Type: Undocumented
Origin: Undocumented and disputed. One account on this site raises the possibility that these are beings encountered on Earth’s Moon by astronauts, attributing the claim to John Lear. A separate, unnamed account instead suggests they may simply be “Nordics,” “Blondes,” or “Tall Whites” misidentified. A third account describes them as descendants of Noah who traveled to the Western Hemisphere after the Deluge and took up residence in cavern systems containing abandoned ancient technologies. None of these three accounts is reconciled with the others in the source material.
Life Form Type: Humanoid
Subspecies: None documented
Most Common Species: Undocumented
Level of Species: Undocumented
Habits: Reported to inhabit deep cavern systems beneath the general region of the Ozarks and Arkansas, per one account; no further habit is documented
Transportation Type: Undocumented
Witnesses Reports: A separate, brief source states that the only evidence for these people is “an early report of the Cherokee Indians telling of a blue-skinned race that they encountered,” with no further detail given. No source reviewed for this entry documents sightings at Fort Mountain, Georgia; Murphy, North Carolina; or Sparta, Tennessee.
Special Features/Characteristics: Extreme sensitivity to light is the most consistently attested trait across the sources reviewed
Summary/Description: The “Moon” Eyed People are described across this archive’s own older material and a second, brief outside source as a tall (7–8 ft), pale-blue-skinned people whose large, “wrap-around” eyes are extremely light-sensitive — the origin of their name. Their true origin is unresolved even within the source material itself, with three separate, unreconciled explanations on offer: beings encountered on the Moon, misidentified Nordics or Tall Whites, or cave-dwelling descendants of Noah. The only outside corroboration located is a brief, vague reference to an early Cherokee account of encountering a blue-skinned people.
Source: This site’s own prior “Moon Eyes” material (ultimate origin undocumented); Bibliotecapleyades website (Moon Eyes, in Alien Races) — both as reviewed in Jake Muller, A Guide to ETs/Star Nations and Beings (M–Z), Vol. 2, 2024, pp. 71–72.
Related Cases: None documented. Note: the Yunwi Tsunsdi (“Little People”) of Cherokee folklore are a separate legendary people and should not be conflated with the Moon-Eyed People described here.
DETAILED REPORT
This archive’s own older material on the “Moon” Eyed People gives no home planet and no clear origin story, describing instead a tall (7 to 8 feet) people with pale blue skin, whose defining trait — and the likely source of their name — is a pair of large, “wrap-around” eyes with extreme sensitivity to light. That same material raises, without settling on, three separate explanations for who these beings actually are. One possibility floated is that they are the beings reportedly encountered on Earth’s Moon by astronauts, a claim the material attributes to John Lear. A second, unnamed account suggests they may simply be a case of mistaken identity involving “Nordics,” “Blondes,” or “Tall Whites.” A third describes them as descendants of Noah who journeyed to the Western Hemisphere following the biblical Deluge and settled into cavern systems containing abandoned ancient technologies, said to be reported in deep cavern systems beneath the general region of the Ozarks and Arkansas. None of these three explanations is reconciled with the others, and the material itself treats them as separate, competing theories rather than a single settled account.
A second, independent source, the Bibliotecapleyades website, offers only a brief note: that the sole evidence for these people is an early report of Cherokee accounts describing an encountered blue-skinned race. No further detail — no date, no named observer, no specific location — is given.
No source reviewed for this entry supports the small (3-to-4-foot) stature, Fort Mountain/Georgia stone wall connection, Welsh Prince Madoc theory, or “Yunwi Tsunsdi” naming previously presented on this page. The small stature in particular appears to belong to an entirely different legendary Cherokee people, the Yunwi Tsunsdi (“Little People“), a distinct figure in Cherokee oral tradition not identified with the Moon-Eyed People in any source consulted here.
RESEARCHER’S NOTES
The Moon-Eyed People — A Height Contradiction Traced to a Different Legend
- Classification Correction: This entry previously described a small (0.9–1.3 m), bearded, subterranean people connected to a specific 850-foot stone wall at Fort Mountain, Georgia, and to a Welsh Prince Madoc origin theory, along with a full biometric panel and a “Level III Terrestrial Stewards” classification. None of this appears in any source reviewed, which instead describe a tall (2.1–2.4 m) people with no confirmed home, no wall attribution, and no confirmed origin theory. All fabricated and misattributed detail has been removed or corrected.
- Source Chain Assessment: This entry rests on this site’s own older, unsourced material and one brief outside citation from Bibliotecapleyades. Neither source is strongly corroborated, and the older material itself openly presents three competing, unreconciled explanations for the Moon-Eyed People’s origin rather than a single confirmed account — a level of internal uncertainty that should be preserved rather than resolved by inventing a single tidy narrative.
- Pattern Context / Comparative Cases: The invented small stature and “Yunwi Tsunsdi” naming appear to result from conflating two distinct legendary Cherokee peoples — the tall, light-sensitive Moon-Eyed People described here, and the separate, small-statured Yunwi Tsunsdi (“Little People”) of Cherokee folklore — into a single profile. This is a legendary-figure conflation error, comparable in kind to the case-misattribution pattern seen elsewhere in this archive (compare: Mook and the Ririe, Idaho case), but involving two folklore traditions rather than two UFO incident reports.
- Physical Evidence / Evidentiary Weight: No named witness, date, or specific encounter supports either the cavern-dwelling claim or the brief Cherokee account cited by the second source. Both should be read as thin, secondhand folklore references rather than documented sightings.
What the sources actually support is modest and genuinely unresolved: a tall, pale-blue-skinned, light-sensitive people with no confirmed home and three competing stories about where they came from, corroborated only by a brief, vague reference to early Cherokee accounts of a blue-skinned people. The small-statured, Fort-Mountain-associated version of this entry belongs, if anywhere, to a different legendary people entirely.
Their name is said to come from “large ‘wrap-around’ eyes that are extremely sensitive to light.”
