1978 Pedro Luro UFO Abduction - The strange case of the flying car

Pedro Luro Patagonia, Argentina September 1978, Final stage of the Vuelta da América del Sur of the Chilean pilots who a UFO abducted.

Carlos Acevedo and Hugo Prambs left Buenos Aires on August 17, 1978, as part of the South American Rally’s first stage, which the Automóvil Club Argentino and Banco Regional Exchange put on.

During the competition, they would have to travel from Buenos Aires to Caracas (Venezuela) and back along the South American Pacific coast, which would be extremely difficult for both men and machines to complete.

Numerous issues that the crew of Citroen number 102 encountered, particularly in the final stages of the Rally, led them to decide against continuing to compete.

They could “re-enroll” themselves after giving up to finish the route thanks to Acevedo’s perseverance and the assistance of the other competitors.

Hugo Prambs left at the city of Bariloche on September 16 due to personal issues, and Miguel Angel Moya took his place.

Pedro Luro UFO Abduction

On September 23, early morning, Acevedo and Moya completed the final 1,000 kilometers of the Rally.

They stopped at the ACA post in Viedma (province of Ro Negro) around 2:00 to refuel (they filled the standard 50-liter tank and an additional 40-liter tank), have coffee, and chat with other competitors for a short while.

After crossing the Rio Negro and passing through the town of Carmen de Patagones, Citroen number 102 was back on the road to Bahia Blanca at 2:30 in the morning.

They were at the height of Salitral del Algarrobo and Salina de Pedro, about 30 kilometers north of the city of Carmen de Patagones, by 3 o’clock after leaving the intersection of Route 3 and the local road that leads to Cardenal Cagliero (approximate coordinates of the witnesses’ location: 40o 29′ South Latitude, 62o 49′ West Longitude).

The Citroen’s driver at the wheel was Carlos Acevedo. He abruptly noticed a bright light in his car’s rearview mirror.

The light was dim and yellowish. It was initially just a dot in the mirror, but it gradually grew more prominent.

At that moment, Acevedo and Moya moved at almost 100 km/h. The light was coming on quickly despite this.

Acevedo assumed they were the headlights of one of the Citroen 2400 or a Mercedes Benz in the larger displacement class, so he decided to significantly slow down and stay on the right side of the asphalt strip to allow what he believed to be another Rally competitor to pass.

The light was already visible in the rearview mirror and was advancing quickly.

Acevedo and Moya’s Citroen passenger area was “filled” with light at once.

The Abduction in Pedro Luro

“Viedma is thirty kilometers away. I noticed a dense yellow and violet light approaching me in the rearview mirror. Given the speed, I initially believed it to be a car traveling about 300 kilometers per hour. I made an effort to yield and moved to the left. Then light flooded the cabin, and we could only see as far as the car’s hood. It was intensely bright and yellow with hints of violet. The car seemed to be out of control at that precise moment. We were six feet away from the asphalt when I peered out the window.”

Acevedo recalled,

“I immediately thought we had jumped on the back of a donkey and I immediately began to fly, bracing myself for the eventuality that we would make contact with the asphalt once more. But instead of going down, the car appeared to be climbing uncontrollably.”

“After a few seconds, maybe five or ten, I don’t know. As I was reacting, I became aware that this was utterly abnormal. I wanted to recheck the view out the window, but all I saw was that obtrusive light. What’s up, I remember shouting, but Moya didn’t want to respond. My partner wasn’t there when I looked to my right, or at least I couldn’t see him. I couldn’t even see the dashboard, to be honest.”

Acevedo continued,

“I just noticed that light, a dense thing that looked like a liquid, I don’t know, something sticky.”

Miguel Angel Moya, whose fear paralyzed him, reported that:

“I don’t know how long it was, maybe a minute or two, but I felt a slight jolt, and I knew immediately that the car was back on the road. The yellow light appeared to dim at that precise moment, and I gradually gained the ability to see my surroundings, including the dashboard and the car’s hood. We were stopped entirely on the shoulder on the wrong side of the road, to the left of the road, when I peered out the window and saw the land.

The light abruptly vanished, and I observed it travel toward the west. It resembled a cone of yellow light, but it was truncated rather than ending in a point. It would be six, maybe seven meters high, with a four or five meters wide base and a top two or three meters high. Although you couldn’t see what the base was illuminating because it wasn’t visible through the light, it lit up the surrounding area. A short while later, the light—how should I put it?—retreated.

The only thing visible after or that rose like a curtain from bottom to top was an oval of yellowish-white light that continued toward the west before dissipating into the sky. “

Moya then needed a few seconds to get over the shock of the bizarre circumstance she was in:

“Everything happened at once, leaving us alone on the road. We looked at each other but were unable to communicate with one another. It was difficult to breathe because I was numb, my hands were shaking, and my chest was tight.”

Acevedo and Moya remained motionless briefly, unable to move or do anything. Finally, Acevedo exited the car to “check that everything was in place,” as he explained.

He quickly re-boarded the Citroen, and they promptly continued north on Route 3.

The Chilean crew of Citroen number 102 traveled for 15 minutes before arriving in Pedro Luro, a city 123 kilometers north of Carmen de Patagones in the province of Buenos Aires.

The odometer indicated that they had traveled 52 kilometers from the city of Viedma to Pedro Luro when the actual distance between the two locations is 127 kilometers; on the other hand, they arrived in Pedro Luro at 5:10 am, having left the urbanized area of Carmen de Patagones at around 2 am.

Magazine cover covering the Pedro Luro UFO Abduction with the title The strange case of the flying carWhen they decided to check the car’s instruments, they confirmed the anomalous data.

The witnesses attested to a third puzzling fact: they discovered the secondary tank was empty even though it had been filled with 40 liters of gasoline in Viedma when they decided to fill the main tank with gas.

And as if that weren’t enough, they showed up at the control two hours early, right after the vehicle arrival desk had been set up.

They were labeled as “irregular” in the race as a result.

The witnesses became even more perplexed as their fear increased due to the reported facts.

They decided to report the UFO Incident to the Pedro Luro Police, for which they went to the appropriate detachment.

Official inspector Daniel Osimi diligently looked after them there, and they gave him the specifics of what had occurred.

A week after the incident, the political-focused magazine Somos featured an illustration of the car illuminated by an alleged UFO with the headline “The strange case of the flying car” on its cover.

The letter also contains a complaint to Acevedo and Moya in which they retell the UFO incident with a Pedro Luro police officer.

“They were about to cry when Acevedo desperately grabbed the head. While Moya could not speak and appeared paralyzed,” official inspector Jorge Osimi, who had been called to the scene by the station’s night watchman, gave his assurance.

Lights on the road in Pedro Luro

The case was obscured until 2000 when Chilean journalist Patricio Baados spoke with Miguel Angel Moya about his UFO Abduction (Acevedo died in a car accident in 1987).

The co-pilot recalled that when the car’s light turned on, “a long corridor with doors on both sides appeared. We were making progress. Through those doors, the light was visible.

Carlos was screaming, and I knew he was there. When we reached the end of the hallway, a dome was there. The lights rotated from a sign that hung there. Two creatures came toward us. It looks like the Martians got us, idiot, I said in response to Carlos’s “What’s wrong?” question.

We returned to the car after the entire scene vanished at that point.

They were disqualified from the race due to the unusual event that two Chilean drivers led in the middle of the Rally in Argentina; the organizers believed they had engaged in “cheating,” but there was no way to prove it.

The Argentine Air Force personnel who interrogated the pilots in Buenos Aires later asked them to describe the incident in detail, took the clothing they were wearing the day of the incident, and ultimately asked them not to comment on what had happened so as not to “alarm the population,” according to pilots Acevedo and Moya.

Other Testimonials to Pedro Luro UFO Abduction

Cover of the Boletin UFO Press October 1978Inspector Jorge Osimi claimed that despite extreme nervousness when testifying at the Pedro Luro Police Station, the witnesses were fully aware of their mental faculties.

Osimi checked the auxiliary fuel tank for cracks or holes, so the disappearance of 40 liters of fuel had no known cause.

Police Corporal Jess Garca claimed to have seen how anxious the witnesses were. On the Pedro Luro – Bahia Blanca route, they hardly said a word to one another. Acevedo was momentarily startled when a car trailing the Citroen flashed its high beams to signal.

The watchman at the gas station, Héctor Forchésotto, was the first to contact the witnesses following the incident. They appeared to be very anxious, especially La Moya, he observed.

He recalls hearing them talk about the issue of gas mileage and running out of fuel. In Forchesatto’s opinion, the witnesses were sincere, and the disquiet and bewilderment they revealed were impossible to fake.

On the other hand, Forchesatto claimed that between 04:30 and 04:45, Ascasubi residents saw a powerful, intense yellowish light move quickly in a westward direction.

People inside their cars have reported being taken against their will and released in a different area without remembering what happened.

These incidents usually involve mysterious lights, a buzzing sound, and a feeling of paralysis or being removed from the car.

Witnesses have described the feeling of being taken into a craft, seeing strange beings, and being subjected to physical examinations before being released.

This type of alien abduction has been reported all over the world.

What Happened to the family in the Caiana UFO Abduction

Photo of the Caiana Family in 2001

On December 13, 2000, João Joaquim da Silva, known as João Caiana, his family, and a friend drove along a dark, deserted road in Iturama, Minas Gerais.

In the vehicle were electrician João, his wife Rosa Martins da Silva, daughter Magui Aparecida Martins, and granddaughter Lavínia.

They were on their way to a farm of a couple of friends to collect jabuticaba to make a liqueur.

Around ten o’clock at night, Maggie saw a bright light on the road.

Soon everyone noticed strange colored lights in the sky, quite intense, that followed the Beetle 1972, for about 3 km, on the right side of the road.

João said that it was not an airplane but a spaceship. As the car approached, the light became more intense.

João noticed that the object was lit up and large, reckoning it should have been about 10 meters wide by six tall.

At that moment, all the witnesses saw the light gray being, thin, with an angular head and no ears, a narrow nose, and large eyes approaching the vehicle.

Rosa found speaking challenging, as her tongue was completely numb, and the girl said she saw “one plate on top of another.”

With all this going on, the family friend screamed for help. Suddenly, Magui fainted before asking them not to let her die.

They noticed a substantial temperature change, and the surprise came that the car was no longer on the road.

João felt pretty cold and had trouble breathing. He thought of a way to take his family home.

The Anunnaki: Ancient Aliens in the Bible?

The Anunnaki: Ancient Aliens in the Bible?

The Anunnaki are a group of deities who are mentioned in Sumerian mythology. They are said to have come from a planet called Nibiru and are credited with creating humanity. Some people believe that the Anunnaki are actually aliens and that they visited Earth thousands of years ago.

The evidence for the existence of the Anunnaki is mainly circumstantial. There are no physical remains of Nibiru, and there is no scientific consensus on whether or not aliens have visited Earth.

However, some ancient texts mention the Anunnaki, and there are several similarities between Sumerian mythology and modern UFO stories.

One of the most famous pieces of evidence for the existence of the Anunnaki is the Enuma Elish, a Babylonian creation myth.

The Enuma Elish tells how the Anunnaki came to Earth and created humanity. According to the Enuma Elish, the Anunnaki were originally gods who lived in the heavens.

However, they became tired of living in the heavens, so they decided to create a new world where they could live.

They created Earth, and they created humanity to work for them.

The Enuma Elish is just one of many ancient texts that mention the Anunnaki. Many ancient artifacts depict the Anunnaki. One of the most famous artifacts is the Gudea Cylinder, a Sumerian clay cylinder representing the God Ningishzidda, often identified with the Anunnaki.

The similarities between Sumerian mythology and modern UFO stories are also striking. In both cases, there are stories of aliens who come to Earth from a distant planet.

In both cases, the aliens are said to be taller and more intelligent than humans. And in both cases, the aliens are said to impact human culture profoundly.

Of course, the similarities between Sumerian mythology and modern UFO stories could be coincidental. However, it is also possible that the similarities prove that Anunnaki is real. If the Anunnaki did visit Earth thousands of years ago, they left behind stories and artifacts passed down through the generations.

The possibility that the Anunnaki are accurate is an exciting one. It would mean that we are not alone in the universe and that our history is much more complex than we ever imagined.

If you are interested in learning more about the Anunnaki, do some research on your own. There are some books and websites that can provide you with more information.

The Anunnaki and the Bible

Some people believe that the Anunnaki are mentioned in the Bible. In the book of Genesis, it is said that God created man in his image.

However, some people believe that this passage is referring to the Anunnaki.

They believe that the Anunnaki created humanity in their image and that they are the ones who taught us the knowledge that we have today.

Some passages in the Bible could be interpreted as references to the Anunnaki. For example, in the book of Ezekiel, it is said that there were “cherubim” who were “like the sons of men.”

Ezekiel 1:5: “As I looked, I saw a stormy wind coming out of the north—a great cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the cloud was glowing like glowing metal, and in the center of the fire was something like four living creatures. In appearance their form was human, 6 but each of them had four faces and four wings. 7 Their legs were straight, and their feet were like the feet of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze. 8 Under their wings on their four sides they had human hands. All four of them had faces and wings, 9 and the wings of one touched the wings of the creature on either side. Each one went straight ahead; they did not turn as they moved.”

Ezekiel 10:14: “Each of the cherubim had four faces: One face was that of a cherub, the second the face of a human being, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.”
In both of these passages, the cherubim are described as having human-like features, such as faces and hands. However, they also have animal-like features, such as wings and the faces of lions and eagles. This combination of human and animal features is characteristic of cherubim in the Bible.

The meaning of the cherubim in Ezekiel is not entirely clear. Some scholars believe that they represent the presence of God, while others believe that they represent the four gospels.

Some people believe that these cherubim are references to the Anunnaki.

Of course, there is no scientific consensus on whether or not the Anunnaki are mentioned in the Bible. However, it is an exciting possibility to consider. If the Anunnaki are accurate, then it would mean that they have been involved in human history for a long time.

The Anunnaki and Modern UFO Stories

As mentioned earlier, there are several similarities between Sumerian mythology and modern UFO stories. In both cases, there are stories of aliens who come to Earth from a distant planet.

In both cases, the aliens are said to be taller and more intelligent than humans. And in both cases, the aliens are said to impact human culture profoundly.

Some people believe that these similarities are evidence that the Anunnaki are real. They believe that the Anunnaki are still visiting Earth today and that they are the ones who are responsible for the modern UFO phenomenon.

Of course, there is no scientific evidence to support this claim. However, it is an exciting possibility to consider.

If the Anunnaki are accurate, then it would mean that they are still involved in human history.

Conclusion

The Anunnaki are a fascinating and mysterious group of beings. There is no scientific consensus on whether or not they are real, but much evidence suggests that they may be.

If the Anunnaki are accurate, then they have a profound impact on human history.

They may have created humanity, they may have influenced our culture, and they may still be visiting Earth today.

I encourage you to do some research on the Anunnaki for yourself. Many books and websites can provide you with more information.

If you want to learn more about the possibility of extraterrestrial life, then the Anunnaki are an excellent place to start.

Did A UFO Landing Case In France in 1944?

UFO landing case in France in 1944, during the height of World War II, a strange event occurred in a small village in southeastern France.

According to witnesses, a disc-shaped object landed in a field, and several tiny humanoid beings emerged.

The Story of the UFO Landing Case in France

This report was published by the ufological bulletins Lumineres Dans La Nuit, no. 118, and Flying Saucer Review – Case Histories, no. 12.

Madeleine Arnoux is the named witness in this case.

Arnoux recounted an encounter with a mysterious object and beings in the summer of 1944 when she was only 13 years old.

She used to ride her bicycle weekly to a farm several kilometers from her home to get groceries.

While on the road RD 42, lined with woods, towards Le Verger, she got off her bicycle to pick some wild fruits.

As she walked along a dirt path looking for blackberries, she saw a machine and beings less than 1 meter tall dressed in brown overalls.

The device was a dull metallic gray color and must have been the size of one of the small cars at that time.

Madelaine remembers feeling frozen and unable to move during the mutual observation, and it lasted for an unknown amount of time.

Afterward, she could move and quickly got on her bicycle and rode away.

Madeleine Arnoux was terrified and ran at full speed to the farm and didn’t talk about the encounter for fear of being called a liar. She believes she saw a UFO and clearly remembers the incident.

The location where the encounter happened was a lonely place, and the nearest farms were a kilometer away.

There couldn’t have been any existing vehicles at that time as they were rare on the roads anyway.

Madeleine Arnoux ruled out the possibility of resistance fighters or German soldiers being responsible for the encounter, as they would have stopped her from questioning.

Madelaine believes she must have witnessed one of the first UFO visits. She has enclosed two sketches of the place and plans to return to be more precise.

Other UFO Encounters During the Wars

From Alexandre the Greatest’s earliest years to the Gulf War, unidentified flying objects have been seen during nearly all of history’s pivotal military conflicts.

During the First World War, people noticed them and reported them.

It also inspired Nigel Watson’s book “UFOs of the First World War: Phantom Airships, Balloons, Aircraft, and Other Mysterious Aerial Phenomena.”

Did the Red Baron shoot down a UFO during WWI?

On March 13, 1917, they noticed an object resembling two overlapping silver plates and orange lights while patrolling over western France from an airfield in Belgium.

The object was about 40 meters (120 feet) in diameter.

The Red Baron decided to start shooting at the slowly hovering UFO despite being unable to identify the aircraft; at the time, the United States had just entered the war, so it may have been an unidentified American weapon.

“We were frightened. It was unlike anything we’d ever seen,” according to Peter Waitzrick.

The moment the Baron started firing, the object dropped like a rock and tore off tree limbs as it crashed into the forest.

He saw two young passengers escape the collision site and run into the woods after it.

The Foo Fighter Encounters During the WWII

During World War II, pilots on both sides of the conflict reported encountering strange aerial phenomena known as “Foo Fighters.”

These sightings occurred primarily in the European theater of operations.

The objects were described as glowing orbs that would follow the aircraft, dart around the sky, and sometimes even perform seemingly impossible maneuvers.

Pilots were initially uncertain about what they were seeing, but as more and more reports came in, military officials began to take notice.

Intelligence agencies investigated the objects, but no clear explanation was ever found for their presence.

Some speculated that they were secret weapons developed by the enemy, while others believed they might be extraterrestrial in origin.

Despite numerous sightings, no recorded incidents of the Foo Fighters attacking or harming any aircraft were recorded.

UFO Encounter continues in other military conflicts

During the Vietnam and Korean Wars, numerous reports of UFO sightings by military personnel existed. Pilots, in particular, reported seeing strange objects they could not explain, such as bright lights or metallic disks flying in formation.

In one well-known incident, a group of American soldiers in Vietnam reported seeing a massive, triangular-shaped craft hovering in the sky above them.

The object reportedly emitted a loud, low-frequency hum and then suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Similarly, during the Korean War, pilots reported encountering objects that they described as “flying saucers” or “cigar-shaped” craft.

These objects were said to be capable of incredible speeds and maneuvers far beyond any known aircraft’s capabilities at the time.

The Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident – A UFO Encounter from 1955

USAF personnel in England witnessed multiple sightings and radar detections for several hours. The Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident implications changed the approach to UFOs.

USAF personnel in England witnessed multiple sightings and radar detections. The Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident changed the approach to UFOs.

On the night of May 13, 1955, a group of USAF personnel stationed at the RAF Lakenheath base in Suffolk, England, witnessed a strange aerial phenomenon that would become one of the most compelling UFO cases in history.

The incident, which involved multiple sightings and radar detections of unknown objects over several hours, is known as the Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident.

This post will explore the details of this classic UFO encounter and its implications for the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

The Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident: The Facts

Around 9 p.m. local time, the air traffic control tower at RAF Lakenheath received a call from the RAF Bentwaters radar station about 43 miles away.

The radar operators reported tracking several unidentified blips on their scopes, which were moving erratically and seemed to be flying in formation.

The Lakenheath controllers also noticed unusual echoes on their radar screens, which they attributed to birds or weather phenomena.

Soon after, two F-89 Scorpion fighter jets from the 81st Fighter-Interceptor Squadron at Bentwaters were scrambled to intercept the objects.

The lead pilot, Lieutenant Felix Moncla, Jr., and his radar operator, Second Lieutenant Robert Wilson, made visual contact with the targets and tried to close in on them.

However, the objects appeared much faster and more agile than the jets, and they soon disappeared from the pilots’ sight and radar screens.

Another pair of Scorpions piloted by Lieutenant Charles Metz and Lieutenant William A. Daniell was sent to investigate the objects flying over the North Sea.

Metz and Daniell also saw the lights of the unknown craft, which they described as round or oval-shaped, and tried to chase them. However, the objects again evaded the pursuit and vanished.

Throughout the night, various military and civilian sources reported more sightings and radar returns in the area, including ground observers, radar stations, and pilots of commercial airliners.

Some witnesses claimed to have seen multiple objects, while others saw only one or two. Some described the objects as hovering or pulsating, while others saw them moving at high speeds and making sharp turns.

One witness, a farmer near Ipswich, reported that a strange object landed in his field and took off again after a few minutes.

The Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident: The Explanations

Despite the intense interest and investigation that followed the Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident, no definitive explanation has been offered for the mysterious objects seen that night.

The official Air Force report, released in 1956, suggested that unusual weather conditions, aircraft reflections, and human error caused radar and visual observations.

However, this explanation has been criticized by many ufologists and skeptics as inadequate and implausible.

Several alternative hypotheses have been proposed, ranging from secret military tests to extraterrestrial visitation.

Some have argued that the objects were experimental aircraft or missiles of Soviet origin designed to test American defenses and provoke a response.

However, there is no conclusive evidence to support this theory, and the Cold War context alone does not explain the agility and speed of the objects.

Others have suggested that the objects were natural or atmospheric phenomena, such as ball lightning, meteors, or mirages.

While such phenomena may have caused some of the sightings, it is unlikely that they could account for all the observations and radar returns, especially those that involved multiple witnesses and equipment.

Finally, some have claimed that the objects were extraterrestrial spacecraft piloted by intelligent beings.

More UFO Incidents

Several other UFO incidents were reported around the same time as the Lakenheath-Bentwaters Incident in May 1955.

On May 21, 1955, a Royal Air Force pilot named Roger Wilcox reported seeing a metallic disc-shaped object over Milton Keynes, England, while flying a Meteor jet.

The object was estimated to be about 50 feet in diameter and flew at 12,000 feet before disappearing from view.

Another sighting occurred on May 22, 1955, in Langenburg, Germany, when a group of witnesses observed a silver disc hovering in the sky for several minutes before shooting off at high speed.

The day after, May 13, 1955, The Hopkinsville Goblins

The Hopkinsville Goblins case, often called the Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter, involves a

A family in rural Kentucky experienced an encounter the following day, May 14, 1955, that would go down in history as one of the most horrifying UFO encounters in American history.

The Hopkinsville Goblins case, often called the Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter, involves a family tormented by unexplained monsters who descended upon their farmhouse.

When it all began, Billy Ray Taylor, one of the family members, walked outside to get water from the well. He instantly ran back inside to inform the others after spotting a strange object floating over the sky.

The family then heard weird noises outdoors that were thought to be made by wild creatures.

Elmer Sutton, one of the family members, stepped outside to check, but when he turned around, he saw a strange creature with enormous glowing eyes staring back at him.

The creature was described as three and a half feet tall, with spindly limbs and legs and an abnormally colossal head.

With his shotgun, Elmer attempted to shoot the beast, but to no avail. The thing drifted off as though the gunshot had no impact on it.

The family then surrounded themselves inside the home as they observed some additional odd creatures emerge outside.

According to reports, the creatures moved in a jerky, almost mechanical way and possessed blazing eyes.

They were reportedly rumored to be able to scale the walls of the farmhouse and look through the windows.

The family yelled for aid because they were terrified, but the authorities could not locate proof of the unusual beings.

The military looked for the unusual entities but came up empty-handed. They did, however, mention spotting eerie skies lights.

35 years later, the Rendlesham Forest incident

Rendlesham Forest view from the RAF Bentwaters' radar

The Rendlesham Forest incident was a string of sightings of mysterious lights reported in late December 1980 close to Rendlesham Forest in Suffolk, England, which later came to be associated with reports of UFO landings.

At the time, the United States Air Force (USAF) used RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters, where the events took place.

Just to the north of Rendlesham Forest is RAF Bentwaters. RAF Woodbridge extends into the forest from the west, forming its northern and eastern boundaries.

Woodbridge was chosen because it was “nearly fog-free and had no obstructions for miles.” Rendlesham Forest had to remove over a million trees to make room for the new base.

USAF personnel, including Lieutenant Colonel Charles I. Halt, the deputy base commander, reported seeing what they described as a UFO sighting.

The incident is among the most well-known reported UFO events globally and is the most well-known claimed UFO event in the United Kingdom.

It has been compared to the American UFO incident at Roswell.

It has also been called “Britain’s Roswell.”

According to the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD), the event posed no threat to national security.

As a result, it was never looked into in terms of security.

Some researchers claimed that the Orfordness Lighthouse had been misinterpreted in the sightings.
