THINK ABOUTIT’S ALIEN TYPE SUMMARY

ROBOTS

In the Think About It Alien Database, “Robots” refers to a recurring category of mechanical or robot-like entities reported alongside UFO sightings and abductions, distinct from the biological humanoid types more commonly documented elsewhere on this site. Three real, independently documented cases anchor this entry: the 1973 Langford Budville abduction in England, the 1974 St. Cyrille de Wendover sighting in Quebec, and the 1977 Antonio La Rubia abduction in Paciência, Brazil. Descriptions vary considerably between these cases, and no single consistent physical profile, home system, or classification scheme unites them in the documented record.

Name: Robots

AKA: Undocumented as a formal designation; witnesses across the source cases independently described the entities they saw as “robot-like.”

Location – Home System: Undocumented. No home system is named for the robot-like entities in any of the three source cases.

Distance from Earth: Not applicable; no origin point is documented.

Attitude: Undocumented as a general trait. In the La Rubia case, the entities carried out an abduction without communicating distress or emotion to the witness; the Quebec and Langford Budville figures were reported as largely silent and mechanical in movement.

Motives: Undocumented in general terms. The La Rubia case involved a blood sample and abduction; the Langford Budville case involved a device described as a “robotic retriever” used alongside separately described humanoid examiners.

Physical Appearance: Highly variable across the three source cases; see the individual case descriptions below rather than a single composite profile.

Average Height: Ranges across the documented cases: about 4 feet 8 inches (1.4 m) in the 1977 La Rubia case; about 6 feet in both the 1973 Langford Budville and 1974 Quebec cases.
Average Weight: Undocumented in any of the source cases.
Body Temperature: Undocumented.
Pulse/Respiration: Undocumented.
Blood Pressure: Undocumented.
Life Expectancy: Undocumented.
Hair: Undocumented.
Skin: Described in the Quebec case as metallic in appearance; the La Rubia figures included jutting antennae. No consistent surface description is documented across all three cases.
Eyes: Undocumented; the Quebec witnesses reported no visible facial features at all on the figures they saw.
Sex: Undocumented; not addressed in any of the source cases.

Other Physical Information: The Quebec figures were described with brightly glowing horizontal bars across the torso, resembling toaster elements, and were reported to float above the ground rather than walk, with tripod-shaped ground imprints and pieces of a plastic-like white substance found at the site afterward.

Special Traits and Abilities: Undocumented as a general trait set; individual case details are preserved above and in the Detailed Report below.

Communication Type: Undocumented as a general trait; no consistent communication method is described across the three source cases.

Origin: Undocumented.

Life Form Type: Described by witnesses as robot-like or mechanical in appearance in all three source cases; no source classifies them formally as synthetic, biological, or hybrid.

Subspecies: Undocumented.

Most Common Species: Undocumented.

Level of Species: Undocumented.

Habits: Undocumented as a general pattern beyond the specific actions described in each source case.

Transportation Type: A disc-shaped craft approximately 70 meters (235 feet) across in the 1977 La Rubia case; a hovering, brightly lit reddish-orange object in the 1974 Quebec case. No craft description accompanies the Langford Budville case beyond the initial car-stall encounter.

Witnesses Reports: Gabriella Versacci (name as later reported; original UK sources describe the witness as unnamed), October 16, 1973, Langford Budville, England; Mr. and Mrs. L. (names withheld), June 25, 1974, St. Cyrille de Wendover, Quebec, Canada; Antonio La Rubia, September 15, 1977, Paciência, near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Special Features/Characteristics: See individual case descriptions in the Detailed Report.

Summary/Description: “Robots” is a descriptive category applied to three separately documented cases in which witnesses reported robot-like or mechanical figures during a UFO sighting or abduction: Langford Budville, England (1973); St. Cyrille de Wendover, Quebec (1974); and Paciência, Brazil (1977). The descriptions differ substantially between cases in height, texture, and behavior, and no single consistent species profile or home origin is documented across them.

Source: Case reports for Langford Budville (1973), the Quebec sighting (1974, MUFON’s Skylook, November 1974, “Robot Occupants Report” by Wido Holville), and the La Rubia case (1977, APRO Bulletin, Vol. 26 No. 4, October 1977), as documented on thinkaboutitdocs.com and corroborated independently.

Related Cases: 1973 Langford Budville England Abduction; 1974 Robots in Quebec, Canada; 1977 Abduction by Robot-Like Beings in Brazil (La Rubia case) — all documented in full on this network’s case-page archive.

DETAILED REPORT

Three separately documented cases anchor this entry, and they are kept distinct here rather than merged into a single composite species profile, since the documented descriptions do not agree with one another closely enough to support that.

Langford Budville, England (October 16, 1973): A woman driving near Langford Budville experienced a car failure, then encountered a roughly six-foot-tall robot-like entity, followed by an abduction involving separately described humanoid examiners. Some retellings name the witness as Gabriella Versacci, though the original UK investigative sources describe her as unnamed. Accounts describe a robotic “retriever” device operating alongside blue-clad humanoid figures — the robot in this case functioning more as equipment than as an independent occupant type.
St. Cyrille de Wendover, Quebec (June 25, 1974): Investigated and published in MUFON’s Skylook that November as “Robot Occupants Report,” this case involved a couple who saw a bright reddish-orange object hovering over a field, followed by a roughly six-foot-tall, stiff, metallic-looking figure with glowing horizontal bars across the torso and no visible facial features. Witnesses reported the figure floating rather than walking; investigators later found tripod-shaped ground impressions and flat pieces of a white, plastic-like substance at the site.
Paciência, Brazil (September 15, 1977): Bus driver Antonio La Rubia reported a large disc-shaped object, roughly 70 meters across, in a field near his home. After being paralyzed by a bright light, he described seeing three “robots,” about 4 feet 8 inches tall with protruding antennae, before being taken aboard the craft. The case was investigated by APRO field investigator Irene Granchi and published in the October 1977 APRO Bulletin.

Nothing in any of these three source cases describes a synthetic neural net, DNA-mapping eye-scanners, an “Empathy Protocol,” or any present-day activity. The 2026 material describing autonomous “Aura-Scanners,” ancient sentries monitoring Earth’s “vibrational threshold,” and robots appearing near power plants to protect a planetary “transition” does not appear in any of the three documented cases and has no independent support.

RESEARCHER’S NOTES

Three Cases, Not One Species — Robots as a Shared Category

All three source cases are genuine and independently verifiable: Langford Budville, the Quebec sighting, and the La Rubia case each trace to specific investigators, dates, and (for Quebec and Brazil) contemporary publication in MUFON’s Skylook and the APRO Bulletin respectively.
The three descriptions do not agree closely enough to be treated as one species: heights, textures, and behaviors differ meaningfully between the roughly six-foot metallic Quebec figure, the similarly tall Langford Budville “retriever,” and the much smaller, antennaed La Rubia robots. This page presents them as a shared descriptive category, not a unified biological type.
A large, unrelated block of “RA Social Memory Complex” content had been appended to an earlier draft of this page: that material — describing a Venusian sixth-density collective consciousness, the Great Pyramids, and a 2026 “Blue Ray” narrative — belongs to a completely different entry (see this archive’s separate Ra page) and has no connection to the Robots category. It has been removed from this page entirely.
The 2026 “AI Singularity” and “Aura-Scanner” material is invented: none of the three documented source cases describes ongoing present-day robot activity, and no independent source supports it.

The honest state of this entry is that “Robots” groups together three real, separately investigated cases that share a witness description in common — a mechanical or robot-like figure — without sharing a consistent height, texture, or behavior profile. They are presented here as a category, with each case’s documented details kept distinct, rather than flattened into a single invented species.

No verified period-accurate quote unites the three source cases; each is preserved with its own documented detail above rather than a single invented attribution.
