the 33 00:01:45,230 --> 00:01:43,500 country's leading researchers a formal 34 00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:45,240 Federal representative and other 35 00:01:49,789 --> 00:01:46,560 speakers 36 00:01:51,950

00:01:58,140 unusual aerial objects as well as 40 00:02:02,289 --> 00:02:00,000 addressing the global attention the 41 00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:02,299 subject had received in recent years 42 00:02:07,910 --> 00:02:05,340 particularly in the United States 43 00:02:11,029 --> 00:02:07,920 several U.S representatives spoke at the 44 00:02:12,650 --> 00:02:11,039 event as well such as Robert

governmental investigations into UFOs 54 00:02:41,270 --> 00:02:38,760 during this hearing many cases were 55 00:02:43,970 --> 00:02:41,280 brought to light showing that Brazil was 56 00:02:46,850 --> 00:02:43,980 definitely a hot spot for UFO activity 57 00:02:50,210 --> 00:02:46,860 and that the Brazilian Air Force was 58 00:02:52,309 --> 00:02:50,220 heavily involved in many of these cases 59 00:02:54,949 --> 00:02:52,319 whether it included their own Personnel 60 00:02:58,729 --> 00:02:54,959 or members of the public the following 61 00:03:02,030 --> 00:02:58,739 are just a handful of those cases and 62 00:03:04,490 --> 00:03:02,040 many of them came from one place that 63 00:03:11,060 --> 00:03:04,500 are in dodgy or better known to 64 00:03:11,070 --> 00:03:15,110 [Music] 65

70 00:04:02,089 --> 00:03:58,670 of 1957 the Brazilian Navy established a 71 00:04:05,030 --> 00:04:02,099 base on the island of trendachi strictly 72 00:04:07,210 --> 00:04:05,040 for scientific research 73 00:04:10,369 --> 00:04:07,220 the island which is completely 74 00:04:12,710 --> 00:04:10,379 unoccupied is approximately six miles 75 00:04:14,330 --> 00:04:12,720 off the coast of Brazil in the South 76 00:04:17,210 --> 00:04:14,340 Atlantic Ocean 77 00:04:21,289 --> 00:04:17,220 from this base scientists would conduct 78 00:04:23,749 --> 00:04:21,299 both Oceanic and meteorological research 79 00:04:25,610 --> 00:04:23,759 many of these research projects would 80 00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:25,620 involve the launching of weather 81 00:04:30,950 --> 00:04:27,840 balloons each day into the upper 82 00:04:33,110 --> 00:04:30,960 atmosphere that would then explode and 83 00:04:36,290 --> 00:04:33,120 send research instruments back to the 84 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:36,300 ground attached to parachutes where data 85 00:04:41,930 --> 00:04:39,360 could be collected and studied 86 00:04:44,930 --> 00:04:41,940 however it wasn't long before those 87 00:04:48,650 --> 00:04:44,940 involved in these tests noticed strange 88 00:04:51,890 --> 00:04:48,660 metallic disc shaped objects appearing 89 00:04:53,870 --> 00:04:51,900 in the sky near the balloons almost as 90 00:04:55,310 --> 00:04:53,880 if they were monitoring what was taking 91 00:04:57,590 --> 00:04:55,320 place 92 00:05:00,350 --> 00:04:57,600 one of these metallic disc shaped 93 00:05:03,350 --> 00:05:00,360 objects was first cited on the morning 94 00:05:05,749 --> 00:05:03,360 of January 1st when a sudden bright 95 00:05:08,689 --> 00:05:05,759 light was witnessed moving across the 96 00:05:10,070 --> 00:05:08,699 sky appearing like a mirror reflecting 97 00:05:12,409 --> 00:05:10,080 sunlight 98 00:05:14,150 --> 00:05:12,419 the sighting was witnessed by almost the 99 00:05:17,030 --> 00:05:14,160 entire base 100 00:05:20,810 --> 00:05:17,040 the following evening about 400 miles 101 00:05:24,050 --> 00:05:20,820 away a circular orange object approached 102 00:05:25,790 --> 00:05:24,060 the Navy vessel triunfo and is circled 103 00:05:28,129 --> 00:05:25,800 it several times 104 00:05:31,010 --> 00:05:28,139 this continued for around 10 minutes 105 00:05:34,610 --> 00:05:31,020 before the bizarre object took off at 106 00:05:37,249 --> 00:05:34,620 great speed and disappeared out of sight 107 00:05:40,249 --> 00:05:37,259 another incident would occur on January 108 00:05:43,550 --> 00:05:40,259 6th when the chief of the base commander 109 00:05:45,170 --> 00:05:43,560 Carlos basilar oversaw the daily launch 110 00:05:48,529 --> 00:05:45,180 of the weather balloon 111 00:05:51,170 --> 00:05:48,539 it was a clear blue sky day aside for a 112 00:05:54,710 --> 00:05:51,180 single group of clouds at an approximate 113 00:05:57,469 --> 00:05:54,720 altitude of 14 000 feet although he 114 00:05:59,810 --> 00:05:57,479 didn't know it what basilar thought was 115 00:06:02,210 --> 00:05:59,820 another standard on eventful balloon 116 00:06:04,670 --> 00:06:02,220 launch would quickly become one of the 117 00:06:06,850 --> 00:06:04,680 most mind-blowing Encounters of the 118 00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:06,860 entire project 119 00:06:11,990 --> 00:06:10,080 basilar had returned inside the base and 120 00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:12,000 was listening to the signals being sent 121 00:06:18,110 --> 00:06:14,639 out by the weather balloon then for no 122 00:06:20,570 --> 00:06:18,120 apparent reason everything stopped with 123 00:06:23,090 --> 00:06:20,580 no signals coming through the commander 124 00:06:24,050 --> 00:06:23,100 returned outside in order to view the 125 00:06:29,990 --> 00:06:24,060 balloon 126 00:06:32,629 --> 00:06:30,000 as it should however almost as soon as 127 00:06:34,730 --> 00:06:32,639 it touched the single Bank of clouds it 128 00:06:37,909 --> 00:06:34,740 rushed upward as if it had been 129 00:06:40,129 --> 00:06:37,919 physically pulled up by some sort of 130 00:06:42,650 --> 00:06:40,139 invisible force 131 00:06:43,909 --> 00:06:42,660 nothing was seen of the balloon for over 132 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:43,919 10 minutes 133 00:06:50,590 --> 00:06:46,560 then it came back into view once more 134 00:06:53,870 --> 00:06:50,600 only now it was above the cloud Bank 135 00:06:58,370 --> 00:06:53,880 unbelievably the research instruments on 136 00:07:00,950 --> 00:06:58,380 the balloon had been entirely removed 137 00:07:03,610 --> 00:07:00,960 things got even stranger when several 138 00:07:05,930 --> 00:07:03,620 moments later a metallic silver 139 00:07:09,170 --> 00:07:05,940 crescent-shaped object came out of the 140 00:07:11,870 --> 00:07:09,180 clouds and headed off into the distance 141 00:07:13,730 --> 00:07:11,880 just over a week later the objects 142 00:07:16,670 --> 00:07:13,740 appeared again 143 00:07:20,390 --> 00:07:16,680 only this time one witness would capture 144 00:07:24,529 --> 00:07:20,400 photographic evidence of their presence 145 00:07:28,249 --> 00:07:24,539 a little after 12 pm on January 16th a 146 00:07:31,249 --> 00:07:28,259 boat by the name of almerante Saldanha 147 00:07:35,089 --> 00:07:31,259 was off the south coast of trendaji 148 00:07:37,070 --> 00:07:35,099 waiting to set off to Rio De Janeiro 149 00:07:39,529 --> 00:07:37,080 all of the crew and many of the 150 00:07:41,689 --> 00:07:39,539 passengers on board however would soon 151 00:07:44,210 --> 00:07:41,699 notice a strange shiny object 152 00:07:46,070 --> 00:07:44,220 approaching them one of those who 153 00:07:50,990 --> 00:07:46,080 witnessed the approaching anomalous 154 00:07:52,909 --> 00:07:51,000 object was a photographer almiro Parana 155 00:07:55,070 --> 00:07:52,919 he would later tell a local news 156 00:07:58,189 --> 00:07:55,080 reporter that he was making his weight 157 00:08:00,589 --> 00:07:58,199 the deck on the afternoon in question 158 00:08:03,290 --> 00:08:00,599 and two of the Navy officers were 159 00:08:05,990 --> 00:08:03,300 rushing toward him attempting to divert 160 00:08:07,909 --> 00:08:06,000 his attention to the sky among the 161 00:08:10,089 --> 00:08:07,919 commotion he would hear them say 162 00:08:12,589 --> 00:08:10,099 something about a bright object 163 00:08:14,390 --> 00:08:12,599 approaching the island 164 00:08:16,010 --> 00:08:14,400 he struggled to see what they were 165 00:08:19,309 --> 00:08:16,020 looking at to begin with 166 00:08:22,369 --> 00:08:19,319 then he caught sight of The Flash that 167 00:08:24,589 --> 00:08:22,379 it emitted he suddenly realized just how 168 00:08:27,589 --> 00:08:24,599 close the island it was 169 00:08:30,770 --> 00:08:27,599 as it reflected the sunlight it appeared 170 00:08:33,110 --> 00:08:30,780 to glitter somewhat realizing he had his 171 00:08:36,829 --> 00:08:33,120 camera in his hands he raised it to his 172 00:08:39,050 --> 00:08:36,839 eye pointed it at the bizarre object and 173 00:08:40,969 --> 00:08:39,060 pressed down the shutter 174 00:08:43,190 --> 00:08:40,979 after he had snapped the first two 175 00:08:45,410 --> 00:08:43,200 pictures the object disappeared from 176 00:08:47,389 --> 00:08:45,420 their view for several moments behind 177 00:08:50,329 --> 00:08:47,399 the peaks of the island 178 00:08:52,730 --> 00:08:50,339 when it reappeared it seemed much bigger 179 00:08:55,190 --> 00:08:52,740 in size it was now moving in the 180 00:08:57,710 --> 00:08:55,200 opposite direction it was also moving 181 00:09:00,470 --> 00:08:57,720 with much more Pace than before 182 00:09:03,050 --> 00:09:00,480 again he turned the camera in the 183 00:09:04,550 --> 00:09:03,060 object's Direction and captured a third 184 00:09:06,829 --> 00:09:04,560 photograph 185 00:09:09,650 --> 00:09:06,839 the crafter is now heading back in the 186 00:09:11,090 --> 00:09:09,660 direction it had arrived from back out 187 00:09:14,150 --> 00:09:11,100 to sea 188 00:09:17,449 --> 00:09:14,160 piranha managed to raise the camera once 189 00:09:20,030 --> 00:09:17,459 more using the last available film to 190 00:09:22,070 --> 00:09:20,040 capture the craft as it disappeared into 191 00:09:24,350 --> 00:09:22,080 the distance 192 00:09:27,889 --> 00:09:24,360 he would later describe the object as 193 00:09:30,290 --> 00:09:27,899 gray metallic and solid looking 194 00:09:33,470 --> 00:09:30,300 he would further state that a greenish 195 00:09:35,870 --> 00:09:33,480 Haze or Mist appeared to surround it as 196 00:09:38,990 --> 00:09:35,880 it moved and that there was a ring that 197 00:09:41,329 --> 00:09:39,000 appeared to run around its middle 198 00:09:43,670 --> 00:09:41,339 but Rana would have the photographs 199 00:09:46,730 --> 00:09:43,680 developed around an hour later 200 00:09:49,310 --> 00:09:46,740 however there was no photographic paper 201 00:09:51,050 --> 00:09:49,320 on board only the negatives were 202 00:09:53,630 --> 00:09:51,060 immediately available 203 00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:53,640 initially it appeared as if the object 204 00:09:59,570 --> 00:09:56,880 had not been captured however after 205 00:10:02,329 --> 00:09:59,580 viewing them more clearly all present 206 00:10:04,790 --> 00:10:02,339 could see the bizarre craft 207 00:10:08,329 --> 00:10:04,800 when the vessel finally set off to Rio 208 00:10:10,730 --> 00:10:08,339 De Janeiro Verona remained on board and 209 00:10:12,769 --> 00:10:10,740 took the negatives with him he would 210 00:10:15,550 --> 00:10:12,779 ultimately develop the pictures at his 211 00:10:19,210 --> 00:10:15,560 home studio and would contact Commander 212 00:10:21,889 --> 00:10:19,220 basilar immediately after doing so 213 00:10:24,590 --> 00:10:21,899 basilar would take the photographs to 214 00:10:27,530 --> 00:10:24,600 the Navy Ministry returning them to 215 00:10:30,110 --> 00:10:27,540 piranha 48 hours later 216 00:10:33,170 --> 00:10:30,120 however not long after the pictures were 217 00:10:35,030 --> 00:10:33,180 returned varana himself was summoned to 218 00:10:38,030 --> 00:10:35,040 Navy headquarters 219 00:10:40,790 --> 00:10:38,040 once there he was questioned extensively 220 00:10:41,870 --> 00:10:40,800 about the pictures and the sighting 221 00:10:44,269 --> 00:10:41,880 itself 222 00:10:47,329 --> 00:10:44,279 meanwhile the pictures were undergoing 223 00:10:48,590 --> 00:10:47,339 extensive examinations for signs of 224 00:10:51,110 --> 00:10:48,600 tampering 225 00:10:54,590 --> 00:10:51,120 none were discovered and the pictures 226 00:10:56,930 --> 00:10:54,600 were passed by the Navy as authentic 227 00:10:59,690 --> 00:10:56,940 a short time after that they were 228 00:11:02,569 --> 00:10:59,700 officially released to the Press 229 00:11:04,490 --> 00:11:02,579 these photos are available to view right 230 00:11:07,670 --> 00:11:04,500 now on the somewhere in the skies 231 00:11:10,009 --> 00:11:07,680 Instagram page you can follow us at 232 00:11:13,130 --> 00:11:10,019 summer Skies pod 233 00:11:15,530 --> 00:11:13,140 What followed was a media frenzy for 234 00:11:17,810 --> 00:11:15,540 information on the sighting and 235 00:11:20,150 --> 00:11:17,820 interviews with the witnesses 236 00:11:23,090 --> 00:11:20,160 it also sparked the interests of various 237 00:11:26,630 --> 00:11:23,100 UFO investigators one of these 238 00:11:28,670 --> 00:11:26,640 investigators was a Lavo Fontes he was 239 00:11:31,970 --> 00:11:28,680 told by an anonymous source in the 240 00:11:33,769 --> 00:11:31,980 Brazilian Navy that radar had tracked an 241 00:11:36,590 --> 00:11:33,779 unknown object in the region the 242 00:11:38,690 --> 00:11:36,600 previous day even more intriguing 243 00:11:41,329 --> 00:11:38,700 another sighting of an object that 244 00:11:44,569 --> 00:11:41,339 matched the same description occurred 245 00:11:47,090 --> 00:11:44,579 less than 10 hours earlier at around 2 246 00:11:49,490 --> 00:11:47,100 30 a.m on that morning the chief of 247 00:11:50,769 --> 00:11:49,500 surgery at Rio Hospital 248 00:11:53,810 --> 00:11:50,779 [Music] 249 00:11:56,449 --> 00:11:53,820 fundau witnessed the object off the 250 00:11:59,030 --> 00:11:56,459 coast in the direction of turnendaji 251 00:12:01,910 --> 00:11:59,040 Island along with other members of his 252 00:12:04,370 --> 00:12:01,920 family even more intriguing at 253 00:12:06,949 --> 00:12:04,380 approximately the same time an identical 254 00:12:09,470 --> 00:12:06,959 object in the same location was 255 00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:09,480 witnessed by several crew of the 256 00:12:14,269 --> 00:12:12,000 tridente Navy vessel 257 00:12:16,850 --> 00:12:14,279 as the weeks went on and further 258 00:12:19,250 --> 00:12:16,860 Witnesses came forward more and more 259 00:12:21,769 --> 00:12:19,260 information began to seep from the pages 260 00:12:23,389 --> 00:12:21,779 of the newspapers and into the public 261 00:12:25,730 --> 00:12:23,399 Arena 262 00:12:27,889 --> 00:12:25,740 according to one report at the time of 263 00:12:30,230 --> 00:12:27,899 the actual sighting almost all of the 264 00:12:32,750 --> 00:12:30,240 ship's navigational equipment began to 265 00:12:36,350 --> 00:12:32,760 malfunction as did their communication 266 00:12:38,690 --> 00:12:36,360 systems piranha himself would state in 267 00:12:40,370 --> 00:12:38,700 an interview many years later that just 268 00:12:42,829 --> 00:12:40,380 before people begin noticing the 269 00:12:45,370 --> 00:12:42,839 metallic shiny object all of the power 270 00:12:48,290 --> 00:12:45,380 in the ship had suddenly cut out 271 00:12:50,810 --> 00:12:48,300 interestingly the Navy did not comment 272 00:12:53,210 --> 00:12:50,820 on this aspect of the incident and 273 00:12:56,629 --> 00:12:53,220 according to one article they considered 274 00:12:59,690 --> 00:12:56,639 this aspect of the encounter top secret 275 00:13:01,850 --> 00:12:59,700 the case continued to Fascinate the UFO 276 00:13:02,930 --> 00:13:01,860 Community as well as the Brazilian 277 00:13:05,269 --> 00:13:02,940 public 278 00:13:08,509 --> 00:13:05,279 however it wasn't until several years 279 00:13:11,629 --> 00:13:08,519 later in 1964 that further information 280 00:13:14,389 --> 00:13:11,639 would enter the public Arena via leaked 281 00:13:16,670 --> 00:13:14,399 documents to researcher and investigator 282 00:13:19,310 --> 00:13:16,680 Coral Lorenzen 283 00:13:21,530 --> 00:13:19,320 according to the official Navy documents 284 00:13:23,870 --> 00:13:21,540 which were the result of a report the 285 00:13:26,810 --> 00:13:23,880 House of Representatives had ordered of 286 00:13:29,329 --> 00:13:26,820 the Navy a report that had until now 287 00:13:32,329 --> 00:13:29,339 remained secret ultimately concluded 288 00:13:34,910 --> 00:13:32,339 that the sighting and photographs quote 289 00:13:37,310 --> 00:13:34,920 permit the admission that there are 290 00:13:41,329 --> 00:13:37,320 indications of the existence of 291 00:13:43,790 --> 00:13:41,339 unidentified aerial objects end quote 292 00:13:45,889 --> 00:13:43,800 what's also intriguing is that just 293 00:13:49,850 --> 00:13:45,899 prior to these documents being leaked to 294 00:13:52,550 --> 00:13:49,860 Lorenzen UFO debunker Donald Menzel had 295 00:13:55,730 --> 00:13:52,560 accused piranha of completely faking 296 00:13:58,129 --> 00:13:55,740 these photos and of doing so by using 297 00:14:00,650 --> 00:13:58,139 double exposure he would even repeat 298 00:14:03,470 --> 00:14:00,660 these allegations several years later in 299 00:14:06,889 --> 00:14:03,480 a book claiming to detail exactly how 300 00:14:09,310 --> 00:14:06,899 this was achieved but what mental never 301 00:14:12,350 --> 00:14:09,320 mentioned or more appropriately 302 00:14:14,990 --> 00:14:12,360 purposefully left out is the sheer 303 00:14:17,449 --> 00:14:15,000 number of witnesses who saw the object 304 00:14:21,009 --> 00:14:17,459 with their own eyes 305 00:14:25,250 --> 00:14:21,019 the fact of the matter is this besides 306 00:14:26,449 --> 00:14:25,260 trendaji Brazil has a long history of 307 00:14:31,310 --> 00:14:26,459 UFOs 308 00:14:34,790 --> 00:14:31,320 for example in Sao Paulo on July 23 1947 309 00:14:38,210 --> 00:14:34,800 only weeks after the alleged Roswell UFO 310 00:14:41,810 --> 00:14:38,220 crash in New Mexico a very strange close 311 00:14:46,250 --> 00:14:41,820 encounter story had emerged 312 00:14:48,710 --> 00:14:46,260 on July 23rd Jose Higgins reported 313 00:14:51,350 --> 00:14:48,720 seeing a white gray disc shaped craft 314 00:14:54,350 --> 00:14:51,360 that was resting on the ground on what 315 00:14:57,250 --> 00:14:54,360 appeared to be four Meadow legs 316 00:15:01,430 --> 00:14:57,260 he estimated that the object was around 317 00:15:04,310 --> 00:15:01,440 150 feet across as he stood taking in as 318 00:15:07,490 --> 00:15:04,320 many details as he could a section of 319 00:15:09,710 --> 00:15:07,500 the vehicle opened and three human 320 00:15:11,509 --> 00:15:09,720 figures emerged 321 00:15:13,730 --> 00:15:11,519 the first thing that stood out to 322 00:15:16,730 --> 00:15:13,740 Higgins is that they were all around 323 00:15:18,949 --> 00:15:16,740 seven feet tall they had large bald 324 00:15:21,949 --> 00:15:18,959 heads with round eyes 325 00:15:24,530 --> 00:15:21,959 and they had particularly long legs in 326 00:15:26,389 --> 00:15:24,540 comparison to the overall frame they 327 00:15:29,389 --> 00:15:26,399 were all dressed in strange clothing 328 00:15:32,030 --> 00:15:29,399 that appeared to resemble plastic bags 329 00:15:34,009 --> 00:15:32,040 and on their backs were something akin 330 00:15:36,350 --> 00:15:34,019 to metal boxes 331 00:15:39,230 --> 00:15:36,360 it also appeared that at least two other 332 00:15:41,750 --> 00:15:39,240 humanoid entities remained inside the 333 00:15:44,210 --> 00:15:41,760 craft and they looked identical to the 334 00:15:46,910 --> 00:15:44,220 others even though the others had come 335 00:15:49,850 --> 00:15:46,920 fully out of the object they remained in 336 00:15:54,110 --> 00:15:49,860 this shade as if consciously staying out 337 00:15:56,629 --> 00:15:54,120 of direct sunlight vampire style Higgins 338 00:15:59,629 --> 00:15:56,639 could hear them speaking although it was 339 00:16:02,150 --> 00:15:59,639 a language unknown to him one of these 340 00:16:04,310 --> 00:16:02,160 beings suddenly pointed a metal tube at 341 00:16:06,889 --> 00:16:04,320 Higgins and motioned for him to come 342 00:16:10,069 --> 00:16:06,899 closer they gestured formed a look 343 00:16:12,769 --> 00:16:10,079 inside the opening of The Craft which he 344 00:16:13,970 --> 00:16:12,779 ultimately did although he did not step 345 00:16:16,730 --> 00:16:13,980 inside 346 00:16:19,850 --> 00:16:16,740 he attempted to ask through gesturing 347 00:16:22,189 --> 00:16:19,860 where did they come from they appear to 348 00:16:24,290 --> 00:16:22,199 understand as they drew a large circle 349 00:16:27,650 --> 00:16:24,300 on the ground surrounded by several 350 00:16:30,290 --> 00:16:27,660 smaller circles then they pointed to one 351 00:16:31,550 --> 00:16:30,300 of these circles presumably their home 352 00:16:33,889 --> 00:16:31,560 planet 353 00:16:36,769 --> 00:16:33,899 it wasn't clear to Higgins what solar 354 00:16:38,990 --> 00:16:36,779 system or planet or even Galaxy these 355 00:16:41,870 --> 00:16:39,000 seemingly extraterrestrial visitors 356 00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:41,880 might have been referring to they then 357 00:16:47,810 --> 00:16:45,360 gestured for him to go inside but he 358 00:16:50,990 --> 00:16:47,820 politely declined and began to make his 359 00:16:53,389 --> 00:16:51,000 way from the scene after several moments 360 00:16:56,569 --> 00:16:53,399 the entities got back inside the craft 361 00:16:58,189 --> 00:16:56,579 which then ascended into the sky and 362 00:17:01,850 --> 00:16:58,199 disappeared 363 00:17:04,850 --> 00:17:01,860 in November of 1952 several more 364 00:17:07,850 --> 00:17:04,860 sightings occurred in Brazil according 365 00:17:11,390 --> 00:17:07,860 to an article titled my contact with 366 00:17:13,909 --> 00:17:11,400 flying saucers Dino crespedon claimed to 367 00:17:17,809 --> 00:17:13,919 have witnessed several UFOs over three 368 00:17:20,390 --> 00:17:17,819 nights in the mountains of angatupa on 369 00:17:23,449 --> 00:17:20,400 the third night in question one of these 370 00:17:26,510 --> 00:17:23,459 strange objects landed where Dino was 371 00:17:30,289 --> 00:17:26,520 kept he further put forward that he was 372 00:17:31,970 --> 00:17:30,299 invited on board the craft an invite he 373 00:17:34,070 --> 00:17:31,980 duly accepted 374 00:17:36,529 --> 00:17:34,080 perhaps one thing of interest in note 375 00:17:38,990 --> 00:17:36,539 here are the claims that Dino was told 376 00:17:42,409 --> 00:17:39,000 the aliens came from the satellites of 377 00:17:44,870 --> 00:17:42,419 Jupiter in recent years scientists have 378 00:17:48,409 --> 00:17:44,880 indeed pondered whether at least two of 379 00:17:50,570 --> 00:17:48,419 the gas giants moons could Harbor life 380 00:17:52,430 --> 00:17:50,580 so maybe there is some Credence to 381 00:17:55,549 --> 00:17:52,440 Dino's claim 382 00:17:57,289 --> 00:17:55,559 around the same time in Kubota according 383 00:18:00,010 --> 00:17:57,299 to the research files of UFO 384 00:18:03,830 --> 00:18:00,020 investigator an Alicia Santos Francisco 385 00:18:06,169 --> 00:18:03,840 a truly tragic event would unfold 386 00:18:08,810 --> 00:18:06,179 a nine-year-old girl was playing outside 387 00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:08,820 with friends and her brother as they 388 00:18:13,970 --> 00:18:11,280 played though an extremely strong wind 389 00:18:16,490 --> 00:18:13,980 suddenly appeared out of nowhere causing 390 00:18:19,490 --> 00:18:16,500 them all to stop what they were doing 391 00:18:22,610 --> 00:18:19,500 then a moment later a bizarre object 392 00:18:24,950 --> 00:18:22,620 appeared and landed nearby 393 00:18:27,470 --> 00:18:24,960 the witnesses would later State this 394 00:18:31,669 --> 00:18:27,480 strange vehicle was approximately the 395 00:18:33,650 --> 00:18:31,679 size of a bus after a moment or two a 396 00:18:35,450 --> 00:18:33,660 door opened in the side of this 397 00:18:39,350 --> 00:18:35,460 mysterious craft 398 00:18:42,049 --> 00:18:39,360 moments later a metallic arrow shot out 399 00:18:44,690 --> 00:18:42,059 of the doorway before the children could 400 00:18:46,310 --> 00:18:44,700 stand anymore they all turned and ran 401 00:18:48,350 --> 00:18:46,320 from the scene 402 00:18:51,409 --> 00:18:48,360 by the time the group had come to their 403 00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:51,419 senses and composed themselves the young 404 00:18:54,950 --> 00:18:53,760 girl realized that her brother was 405 00:18:56,990 --> 00:18:54,960 missing 406 00:18:58,909 --> 00:18:57,000 after telling her parents what had 407 00:19:00,890 --> 00:18:58,919 happened they and many neighbors and 408 00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:00,900 Friends set out looking for the young 409 00:19:06,350 --> 00:19:04,320 boy several hours later a report was 410 00:19:07,549 --> 00:19:06,360 received by the police department of a 411 00:19:10,370 --> 00:19:07,559 nearby City 412 00:19:13,850 --> 00:19:10,380 they had found the missing boy wandering 413 00:19:16,610 --> 00:19:13,860 the streets in a severe State of Shock 414 00:19:20,090 --> 00:19:16,620 by the time the family arrived the boy 415 00:19:22,549 --> 00:19:20,100 was suffering from severe skin burns in 416 00:19:25,490 --> 00:19:22,559 an extremely high fever 417 00:19:28,310 --> 00:19:25,500 a short time after he was found he would 418 00:19:30,830 --> 00:19:28,320 tragically pass away 419 00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:30,840 it appeared that he was suffering from 420 00:19:37,850 --> 00:19:34,559 exposure to radiation 421 00:19:40,250 --> 00:19:37,860 only weeks after the encounters at UFO 422 00:19:42,950 --> 00:19:40,260 Island had reached the peak on the night 423 00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:42,960 of February 24th another bizarre 424 00:19:48,490 --> 00:19:45,360 encounter unfolded in Brazil 425 00:19:51,049 --> 00:19:48,500 this time in the state of Bahia 426 00:19:54,350 --> 00:19:51,059 according to a report the incident 427 00:19:56,630 --> 00:19:54,360 occurred at a little after 3 A.M when a 428 00:19:59,870 --> 00:19:56,640 doctor by the name of Carlos Jose to 429 00:20:02,930 --> 00:19:59,880 Costa Pereira and his friend Antonio de 430 00:20:05,270 --> 00:20:02,940 aruja were being driven by pereira's 431 00:20:08,150 --> 00:20:05,280 driver Manuel Mendes 432 00:20:11,150 --> 00:20:08,160 suddenly their car began to stutter 433 00:20:14,690 --> 00:20:11,160 after several moments of this it cut out 434 00:20:16,610 --> 00:20:14,700 altogether and came to a sudden stop the 435 00:20:18,590 --> 00:20:16,620 three men stepped out from the vehicle 436 00:20:21,169 --> 00:20:18,600 and attempted to discover what the 437 00:20:23,990 --> 00:20:21,179 problem might be everything appeared to 438 00:20:26,090 --> 00:20:24,000 be fine as they were miles away from the 439 00:20:28,250 --> 00:20:26,100 nearest Village they decided to spend 440 00:20:30,289 --> 00:20:28,260 the night exactly where they were and 441 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:30,299 then set out for assistance the next 442 00:20:35,930 --> 00:20:32,880 morning as they were getting ready to do 443 00:20:38,029 --> 00:20:35,940 so however they noticed a large luminous 444 00:20:40,789 --> 00:20:38,039 object that appeared to be hovering 445 00:20:43,490 --> 00:20:40,799 overhead a short distance away 446 00:20:46,370 --> 00:20:43,500 Pereira would later State how the object 447 00:20:49,669 --> 00:20:46,380 glowed with a strange light which seemed 448 00:20:52,130 --> 00:20:49,679 fluid between silver and blue they soon 449 00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:52,140 realized that the object was not merely 450 00:20:56,990 --> 00:20:54,480 hovering but was heading in their 451 00:20:58,669 --> 00:20:57,000 Direction getting larger with each 452 00:21:01,130 --> 00:20:58,679 passing second 453 00:21:03,470 --> 00:21:01,140 the closer it got the more they could 454 00:21:06,230 --> 00:21:03,480 make out the shape which was like two 455 00:21:08,750 --> 00:21:06,240 bowls placed facing each other with a 456 00:21:11,270 --> 00:21:08,760 gold disc or ring running through the 457 00:21:12,890 --> 00:21:11,280 middle as if connecting the upper and 458 00:21:16,549 --> 00:21:12,900 lower sections 459 00:21:19,430 --> 00:21:16,559 this ring was spinning extremely quickly 460 00:21:22,070 --> 00:21:19,440 the object came to a stop approximately 461 00:21:25,070 --> 00:21:22,080 250 feet from where the men were 462 00:21:26,870 --> 00:21:25,080 standing it was at about a height of a 463 00:21:29,450 --> 00:21:26,880 hundred feet off the ground 464 00:21:31,909 --> 00:21:29,460 it remained still in silent for several 465 00:21:32,870 --> 00:21:31,919 seconds before it went into motion once 466 00:21:35,090 --> 00:21:32,880 more 467 00:21:38,570 --> 00:21:35,100 the object then descended directly 468 00:21:42,110 --> 00:21:38,580 downward coming to a stop once more when 469 00:21:44,810 --> 00:21:42,120 it was only about 10 feet off the ground 470 00:21:47,149 --> 00:21:44,820 as it descended the witnesses could see 471 00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:47,159 that the bottom section was slightly 472 00:21:51,230 --> 00:21:49,200 flattened and that the glow from the 473 00:21:53,810 --> 00:21:51,240 object was spreading toward the ground 474 00:21:57,830 --> 00:21:53,820 like a curtain of light suspended 475 00:22:01,010 --> 00:21:57,840 between the object and the ground below 476 00:22:04,029 --> 00:22:01,020 at this point Mendes returned to the 477 00:22:06,770 --> 00:22:04,039 vehicle clearly unsettled by the events 478 00:22:09,350 --> 00:22:06,780 Pereira and his friend on the other hand 479 00:22:12,770 --> 00:22:09,360 remained where they were neither taking 480 00:22:14,750 --> 00:22:12,780 their eyes from the mysterious object 481 00:22:16,909 --> 00:22:14,760 they remained looking at the craft for 482 00:22:17,870 --> 00:22:16,919 several minutes as it remained where it 483 00:22:20,270 --> 00:22:17,880 was 484 00:22:23,390 --> 00:22:20,280 deciding to take matters into their own 485 00:22:26,029 --> 00:22:23,400 hands the two men made the decision to 486 00:22:28,730 --> 00:22:26,039 walk toward the hovering craft 487 00:22:31,190 --> 00:22:28,740 however when they came to within a few 488 00:22:33,950 --> 00:22:31,200 feet of it it shot into the air with 489 00:22:36,590 --> 00:22:33,960 Breakneck speed coming to a sudden stop 490 00:22:39,230 --> 00:22:36,600 around 600 feet from the ground 491 00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:39,240 over the next several minutes it moved 492 00:22:44,330 --> 00:22:41,760 up and it crossed the sky performing 493 00:22:47,870 --> 00:22:44,340 various Maneuvers as it did so 494 00:22:50,149 --> 00:22:47,880 eventually by around 4 30 a.m the object 495 00:22:54,529 --> 00:22:50,159 disappeared from sight and appeared to 496 00:22:56,990 --> 00:22:54,539 be gone for good however at 6 30 a.m two 497 00:22:59,210 --> 00:22:57,000 hours later and it was four hours after 498 00:23:01,970 --> 00:22:59,220 they had first seen it they saw the 499 00:23:05,330 --> 00:23:01,980 object again hovering at a relatively 500 00:23:07,789 --> 00:23:05,340 low altitude slightly tilted on its side 501 00:23:10,010 --> 00:23:07,799 it remained motionless for several 502 00:23:12,289 --> 00:23:10,020 minutes before it suddenly shot into the 503 00:23:13,690 --> 00:23:12,299 distance and disappeared almost 504 00:23:16,070 --> 00:23:13,700 instantly 505 00:23:18,110 --> 00:23:16,080 incidentally before they set out to 506 00:23:20,390 --> 00:23:18,120 search for help with the arrival of 507 00:23:23,630 --> 00:23:20,400 daylight the three men tried the vehicle 508 00:23:26,330 --> 00:23:23,640 one last time to their amazement the 509 00:23:28,549 --> 00:23:26,340 engine roared into life with no problems 510 00:23:31,010 --> 00:23:28,559 whatsoever 511 00:23:34,370 --> 00:23:31,020 while there are many other

00:24:46,020 kalaris claimed that they not only 535 00:24:53,029 --> 00:24:49,080 witnessed flying saucers but they were 536 00:24:56,510 --> 00:24:53,039 also being attacked by them 537 00:24:58,850 --> 00:24:56,520 bright objects of differing shapes sizes 538 00:25:01,909 --> 00:24:58,860 and colors were said to have been flying 539 00:25:05,270 --> 00:25:01,919 at low altitudes just a few meters above 540 00:25:07,789 --> 00:25:05,280 the tops of trees in firing light beams 541 00:25:09,950 --> 00:25:07,799 at people on the ground below 542 00:25:13,190 --> 00:25:09,960 several witnesses claim to have seen 543 00:25:15,710 --> 00:25:13,200 beings piloting these craft describing 544 00:25:16,850 --> 00:25:15,720 them as no more than three to four feet 545 00:25:19,310 --> 00:25:16,860 tall 546 00:25:21,710 --> 00:25:19,320 what separates these sightings from the 547 00:25:25,130 --> 00:25:21,720 unusual glimpses of UFOs in the skies 548 00:25:27,230 --> 00:25:25,140 are the numerous and recurring injuries 549 00:25:30,830 --> 00:25:27,240 that people suffered 550 00:25:33,950 --> 00:25:30,840 these beams gave off intense rays of 551 00:25:36,710 --> 00:25:33,960 radiation that caused puncture marks and 552 00:25:38,810 --> 00:25:36,720 lesions with some people reporting to 553 00:25:40,789 --> 00:25:38,820 local media at the time that it felt 554 00:25:42,549 --> 00:25:40,799 like a heavy weight had been pushed 555 00:25:45,909 --> 00:25:42,559 against their chest 556 00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:45,919 describing the injuries Dr villade 557 00:25:51,169 --> 00:25:48,720 Carvalho who worked in a healthcare unit 558 00:25:54,350 --> 00:25:51,179 at the time would State the following 559 00:25:56,990 --> 00:25:54,360 about the patients she treated the 560 00:25:59,390 --> 00:25:57,000 patient suffered lesions to the face or 561 00:26:01,549 --> 00:25:59,400 the middle and upper back they appeared 562 00:26:03,590 --> 00:26:01,559 as though these lesions could be some 563 00:26:07,010 --> 00:26:03,600 type of radiation burn 564 00:26:08,810 --> 00:26:07,020 the lesions or wounds began with intense 565 00:26:09,950 --> 00:26:08,820 reddening of the skin in the affected 566 00:26:12,049 --> 00:26:09,960 area 567 00:26:14,210 --> 00:26:12,059 later some of the patients claim that 568 00:26:16,850 --> 00:26:14,220 their hair would fall out and their skin 569 00:26:20,029 --> 00:26:16,860 would turn black despite all of this 570 00:26:22,610 --> 00:26:20,039 there was no pain only a slight warmth 571 00:26:24,830 --> 00:26:22,620 on their wounds the patients were men 572 00:26:26,570 --> 00:26:24,840 and women of varying ages without any 573 00:26:29,690 --> 00:26:26,580 patterns 574 00:26:33,289 --> 00:26:29,700 soon the saucers were quickly dubbed 575 00:26:35,630 --> 00:26:33,299 Chupa Chupa meaning sucker sucker and 576 00:26:37,669 --> 00:26:35,640 with reports of more sightings and more 577 00:26:40,970 --> 00:26:37,679 incidents of people being injured or 578 00:26:43,669 --> 00:26:40,980 losing blood Panic soon started to set 579 00:26:46,010 --> 00:26:43,679 in and women and children left the area 580 00:26:48,529 --> 00:26:46,020 while local men stayed to look after 581 00:26:51,169 --> 00:26:48,539 their homes or possessions 582 00:26:52,970 --> 00:26:51,179 with no reasonable explanation offered 583 00:26:56,090 --> 00:26:52,980 as to what exactly was behind the 584 00:26:58,610 --> 00:26:56,100 so-called attacks from the UFOs or Chupa 585 00:27:00,890 --> 00:26:58,620 chupas the Brazilian Air Force was 586 00:27:02,330 --> 00:27:00,900 tasked with finding out what was going 587 00:27:05,029 --> 00:27:02,340 on 588 00:27:07,370 --> 00:27:05,039 and this is when they decided to launch 589 00:27:10,610 --> 00:27:07,380 operation saucer which would 590 00:27:13,430 --> 00:27:10,620 subsequently compile a 2 000 page 591 00:27:17,269 --> 00:27:13,440 military Report featuring 500 592 00:27:19,850 --> 00:27:17,279 photographs in 16 hours of film that the 593 00:27:22,130 --> 00:27:19,860 Brazilian Air Force reportedly witnessed 594 00:27:25,730 --> 00:27:22,140 with their own eyes 595 00:27:27,769 --> 00:27:25,740 Brazilian UFO researcher Daniel robiso 596 00:27:30,529 --> 00:27:27,779 gisi claimed that several military 597 00:27:33,110 --> 00:27:30,539 personnel suffered nervous breakdowns 598 00:27:35,630 --> 00:27:33,120 While others went completely insane 599 00:27:37,789 --> 00:27:35,640 during the course of the investigation 600 00:27:40,970 --> 00:27:37,799 the documents within the investigation 601 00:27:44,630 --> 00:27:40,980 were kept classified until several Pages 602 00:27:47,110 --> 00:27:44,640 were released in 2004 showing drawings 603 00:27:50,090 --> 00:27:47,120 and photographs of what the military saw 604 00:27:52,490 --> 00:27:50,100 bright cylindrical lights featured in 605 00:27:54,769 --> 00:27:52,500 the photographs or several drawings show 606 00:27:57,470 --> 00:27:54,779 similarly shaped objects witnessed by 607 00:28:00,049 --> 00:27:57,480 people on the island at the time 608 00:28:03,110 --> 00:28:00,059 despite this the operation never 609 00:28:05,330 --> 00:28:03,120 explicitly stated that UFOs or aliens 610 00:28:06,950 --> 00:28:05,340 were the official cause of the sightings 611 00:28:09,710 --> 00:28:06,960 and injuries 612 00:28:12,470 --> 00:28:09,720 however high-ranking officials from the 613 00:28:15,470 --> 00:28:12,480 Air Force reportedly told a group of UFO 614 00:28:17,990 --> 00:28:15,480 researchers in 2004 that they had 615 00:28:22,909 --> 00:28:18,000 discreetly been studying the existence 616 00:28:24,890 --> 00:28:22,919 of UFOs since the mid-1950s Dr cavallho 617 00:28:27,470 --> 00:28:24,900 would later come forward to claim the 618 00:28:30,890 --> 00:28:27,480 following on what the Air Force told her 619 00:28:32,570 --> 00:28:30,900 to tell her patients and the public I 620 00:28:35,090 --> 00:28:32,580 was ordered to lie to them about their 621 00:28:37,010 --> 00:28:35,100 injuries to tell them they were simply 622 00:28:39,409 --> 00:28:37,020 hallucinations this is what the Air 623 00:28:40,610 --> 00:28:39,419 Force told me to say that it didn't 624 00:28:42,590 --> 00:28:40,620 happen 625 00:28:45,169 --> 00:28:42,600 I was told to tell the public it was 626 00:28:47,690 --> 00:28:45,179 mass hysteria but nobody can have the 627 00:28:49,610 --> 00:28:47,700 same delirium the same visual and 628 00:28:52,130 --> 00:28:49,620 synthetic hallucinations at the same 629 00:28:55,310 --> 00:28:52,140 time in different places 630 00:28:59,210 --> 00:28:55,320 even more stunning Carvalho would claim 631 00:29:01,970 --> 00:28:59,220 to have witnessed a UFO herself I could 632 00:29:04,130 --> 00:29:01,980 see the UFO's bright medal it wasn't 633 00:29:06,350 --> 00:29:04,140 disc shaped however it was much more 634 00:29:08,690 --> 00:29:06,360 like a cone or a cylinder 635 00:29:10,490 --> 00:29:08,700 this was all I needed to know something 636 00:29:14,390 --> 00:29:10,500 was truly happening 637 00:29:17,450 --> 00:29:14,400 I had now witnessed it myself 638 00:29:21,409 --> 00:29:17,460 in addition the commander of operation 639 00:29:25,070 --> 00:29:21,419 saucer Captain yeran hey Bolivar Suarez 640 00:29:27,350 --> 00:29:25,080 gave an interview in 1997 to UFO 641 00:29:29,690 --> 00:29:27,360 magazine where he recounted how 642 00:29:31,430 --> 00:29:29,700 terrified his men were during their 643 00:29:33,230 --> 00:29:31,440 investigations 644 00:29:35,570 --> 00:29:33,240 he went on to reveal eyewitness 645 00:29:38,149 --> 00:29:35,580 statements which described residents 646 00:29:41,330 --> 00:29:38,159 waking up to beings wearing protective 647 00:29:43,970 --> 00:29:41,340 clothing and shooting colored beams at 648 00:29:46,730 --> 00:29:43,980 their heads as well as several officers 649 00:29:50,169 --> 00:29:46,740 reporting seeing strange lights emerging 650 00:29:53,570 --> 00:29:50,179 from and Diving back into Coastal Waters 651 00:29:56,870 --> 00:29:53,580 leading some to assume this was the 652 00:29:58,970 --> 00:29:56,880 location of a UFO base 653 00:30:03,049 --> 00:29:58,980 three months after giving this interview 654 00:30:05,510 --> 00:30:03,059 the captain was found dead in his home 655 00:30:08,750 --> 00:30:05,520 he was concluded that he had committed 656 00:30:11,210 --> 00:30:08,760 suicide leaving some to speculate that 657 00:30:14,090 --> 00:30:11,220 perhaps giving the interview did not 658 00:30:16,070 --> 00:30:14,100 leave the Brazilian Air Force happy and 659 00:30:20,389 --> 00:30:16,080 that he was actually murdered for coming 660 00:30:22,140 --> 00:30:20,399 forward again only speculation and 661 00:30:24,409 --> 00:30:22,150 tragic no matter the case 662 00:30:27,529 --> 00:30:24,419 [Music] 663 00:30:29,930 --> 00:30:27,539 while operation saucer was indeed a 664 00:30:33,409 --> 00:30:29,940 pinnacle moment in time for Brazilian 665 00:30:36,590 --> 00:30:33,419 UFO history another event would hit the 666 00:30:39,049 --> 00:30:36,600 country almost a decade later and it 667 00:30:43,190 --> 00:30:39,059 would come to be known by locals as the 668 00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:48,889 on May 19 1986 Sergeant Sergio Mota the 669 00:30:55,070 --> 00:30:51,360 air traffic controller at the Sao Jose 670 00:30:56,930 --> 00:30:55,080 dos Campos airport in Sao Paulo spotted 671 00:30:58,070 --> 00:30:56,940 a light in the sky from the control 672 00:31:01,970 --> 00:30:58,080 tower 673 00:31:04,130 --> 00:31:01,980 intrigued by this Mota s controllers at 674 00:31:07,430 --> 00:31:04,140 Sao Paulo's garulis International 675 00:31:09,710 --> 00:31:07,440 Airport tower to check if any plane was 676 00:31:12,769 --> 00:31:09,720 heading to its Airfield 677 00:31:16,549 --> 00:31:12,779 the answer was negative and while he was 678 00:31:19,370 --> 00:31:16,559 talking the object vanished after a 679 00:31:21,649 --> 00:31:19,380 while the object reappeared this time 680 00:31:24,769 --> 00:31:21,659 shining even more brightly 681 00:31:27,169 --> 00:31:24,779 Mota fetched some binoculars to observe 682 00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:27,179 the object better and found that the 683 00:31:33,169 --> 00:31:30,720 object was light and multi-colored 684 00:31:35,389 --> 00:31:33,179 at one point the sergeant dimmed the 685 00:31:38,029 --> 00:31:35,399 Airport runway lights and the object 686 00:31:41,510 --> 00:31:38,039 moved closer and when he increased the 687 00:31:44,510 --> 00:31:41,520 brightness the object moved away in an 688 00:31:46,490 --> 00:31:44,520 interview with the BBC Mota would State 689 00:31:48,649 --> 00:31:46,500 the following whether they were trying 690 00:31:51,590 --> 00:31:48,659 to interact with me I don't know 691 00:31:53,269 --> 00:31:51,600 what I do know is that they behaved 692 00:31:56,149 --> 00:31:53,279 intelligently 693 00:31:59,090 --> 00:31:56,159 around the same time frame about 200 694 00:32:01,070 --> 00:31:59,100 soldiers including Cadets and officers 695 00:32:04,070 --> 00:32:01,080 from the school of aeronautical 696 00:32:06,710 --> 00:32:04,080 Specialists also spotted these lights 697 00:32:09,190 --> 00:32:06,720 either with the naked eye or with 698 00:32:13,430 --> 00:32:09,200 binoculars according to the ufologist 699 00:32:15,529 --> 00:32:13,440 Edison hunner president of the guadaruja 700 00:32:18,409 --> 00:32:15,539 ufological group 701 00:32:20,330 --> 00:32:18,419 in addition at least three planes 702 00:32:23,269 --> 00:32:20,340 reported similar sightings that night 703 00:32:27,110 --> 00:32:23,279 one of which was piloted by Brazilian 704 00:32:29,510 --> 00:32:27,120 entrepreneur oziera Silva the objects 705 00:32:32,029 --> 00:32:29,520 were also picked up on radar from the 706 00:32:34,610 --> 00:32:32,039 Brazilian Air Forces integrated Center 707 00:32:38,510 --> 00:32:34,620 for air defense and air traffic control 708 00:32:40,610 --> 00:32:38,520 meaning these were solid objects 709 00:32:43,310 --> 00:32:40,620 the Air Force scrambled its combat 710 00:32:46,310 --> 00:32:43,320 aircraft to intercept the objects 711 00:32:48,049 --> 00:32:46,320 however the pilots were disoriented by 712 00:32:50,810 --> 00:32:48,059 what they had encountered 713 00:32:53,510 --> 00:32:50,820 according to them these multi-colored 714 00:32:57,649 --> 00:32:53,520 objects could hover statically in the 715 00:33:01,549 --> 00:32:57,659 sky Fly in zigzag formations turn at 716 00:33:04,669 --> 00:33:01,559 right angles change color trajectory and 717 00:33:07,630 --> 00:33:04,679 altitude and they could reach up to 15 718 00:33:10,310 --> 00:33:07,640 times the speed of sound 719 00:33:12,769 --> 00:33:10,320 Mota the air traffic controller would 720 00:33:15,070 --> 00:33:12,779 also add the following the number of 721 00:33:17,509 --> 00:33:15,080 objects was much higher than 21. 722 00:33:20,230 --> 00:33:17,519 sometimes the pilots had visual contact 723 00:33:23,570 --> 00:33:20,240 but The Radars did not register anything 724 00:33:26,029 --> 00:33:23,580 other times The Radars even detected the 725 00:33:28,190 --> 00:33:26,039 presence of objects but the pilots could 726 00:33:30,730 --> 00:33:28,200 not see them the Air Force only 727 00:33:34,310 --> 00:33:30,740 considered sightings in which there were 728 00:33:36,350 --> 00:33:34,320 simultaneous confirmation the rest were 729 00:33:39,350 --> 00:33:36,360 discarded 730 00:33:43,070 --> 00:33:39,360 initially three planes were dispatched 731 00:33:46,370 --> 00:33:43,080 the first of which in f5e piloted by 732 00:33:48,590 --> 00:33:46,380 Lieutenant Clipper caldes Marino left 733 00:33:51,649 --> 00:33:48,600 the Santa Cruz Air Base in Rio de 734 00:33:54,409 --> 00:33:51,659 Janeiro at 10 34 pm 735 00:33:57,169 --> 00:33:54,419 he described closing in on the target 736 00:33:58,730 --> 00:33:57,179 which stopped moving towards him and 737 00:34:01,070 --> 00:33:58,740 started to climb 738 00:34:03,889 --> 00:34:01,080 he kept following the contact until 739 00:34:06,769 --> 00:34:03,899 about thirty thousand feet when he lost 740 00:34:08,869 --> 00:34:06,779 radar contact and was left with just 741 00:34:12,430 --> 00:34:08,879 visual contact 742 00:34:16,129 --> 00:34:12,440 the second fighter a mirage f-103 743 00:34:20,089 --> 00:34:16,139 piloted by Captain armindo Sousa took 744 00:34:21,290 --> 00:34:20,099 off at 10 48 PM from the Annapolis Air 745 00:34:25,010 --> 00:34:21,300 Base 746 00:34:28,129 --> 00:34:25,020 at 11 09 PM the captain noticed an 747 00:34:31,190 --> 00:34:28,139 unidentified signal which appeared 22 748 00:34:33,409 --> 00:34:31,200 kilometers away on his radar he 749 00:34:36,649 --> 00:34:33,419 immediately framed his Target and 750 00:34:41,389 --> 00:34:36,659 prepared to fire at the suspected enemy 751 00:34:43,730 --> 00:34:41,399 his plane soon hit the speed of Mach 1.3 752 00:34:46,250 --> 00:34:43,740 and much to the amazement of the captain 753 00:34:49,310 --> 00:34:46,260 when he was nine kilometers from the 754 00:34:54,169 --> 00:34:49,320 target the object accelerated sharply 755 00:34:57,650 --> 00:34:54,179 and reached the speed of Mach 15. 756 00:35:00,950 --> 00:34:57,660 the third fighter also an F5 piloted by 757 00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:00,960 Captain Marcio or Dao left the Santa 758 00:35:06,470 --> 00:35:04,320 Cruz Air Base at 10 50 pm and nine 759 00:35:09,710 --> 00:35:06,480 minutes later while conducting searches 760 00:35:11,990 --> 00:35:09,720 in the San Jose dos Campos region he was 761 00:35:14,690 --> 00:35:12,000 informed by his flight controller one 762 00:35:17,510 --> 00:35:14,700 Sergeant Nelson that numerous objects 763 00:35:20,270 --> 00:35:17,520 were flying behind him 764 00:35:23,390 --> 00:35:20,280 based on this the captain performed a 765 00:35:24,650 --> 00:35:23,400 180 maneuver to see his pursuers but to 766 00:35:27,290 --> 00:35:24,660 no avail 767 00:35:30,349 --> 00:35:27,300 according to radar images there were a 768 00:35:32,810 --> 00:35:30,359 total of 13 UFOs 769 00:35:35,950 --> 00:35:32,820 seven on one side and six on the other 770 00:35:39,470 --> 00:35:35,960 that escorted the captain 771 00:35:41,329 --> 00:35:39,480 photojournalist adenir prito was also 772 00:35:44,270 --> 00:35:41,339 working that night in his newspaper 773 00:35:46,670 --> 00:35:44,280 office when he received a tip-off that 774 00:35:49,550 --> 00:35:46,680 there was a flying saucer overhead the 775 00:35:52,370 --> 00:35:49,560 newspaper office he initially assumed it 776 00:35:54,650 --> 00:35:52,380 to be a joke but he did go outside with 777 00:35:57,470 --> 00:35:54,660 the reporter to check it out 778 00:36:00,530 --> 00:35:57,480 and much to his surprise he saw a 779 00:36:01,609 --> 00:36:00,540 multi-colored object moving about in the 780 00:36:04,190 --> 00:36:01,619 night sky 781 00:36:07,069 --> 00:36:04,200 and he was able to capture several 782 00:36:09,230 --> 00:36:07,079 photographs of it a month later two 783 00:36:11,630 --> 00:36:09,240 officers from the Aerospace Technical 784 00:36:14,329 --> 00:36:11,640 Center working in conjunction with the 785 00:36:18,109 --> 00:36:14,339 Brazilian Air Force accompanied by the 786 00:36:21,589 --> 00:36:18,119 American UFO researcher James J hertock 787 00:36:23,870 --> 00:36:21,599 turned up at The Newsroom and demanded 788 00:36:26,150 --> 00:36:23,880 that the editor hand them over the 789 00:36:28,790 --> 00:36:26,160 negatives of the photos taken by Brito 790 00:36:32,450 --> 00:36:28,800 on the pretext that they needed to be 791 00:36:34,790 --> 00:36:32,460 analyzed by NASA these negatives were 792 00:36:37,550 --> 00:36:34,800 never returned 793 00:36:40,490 --> 00:36:37,560 four days later then minister of 794 00:36:43,970 --> 00:36:40,500 Aeronautics Brigadier Octavio ulio 795 00:36:46,370 --> 00:36:43,980 Modera Lima held a press conference in 796 00:36:51,230 --> 00:36:46,380 which he told the reporters that five 797 00:36:52,670 --> 00:36:51,240 Brazilian fighter jets chased 21 UFOs in 798 00:36:55,130 --> 00:36:52,680 total 799 00:36:57,349 --> 00:36:55,140 in front of the packed room he would 800 00:36:59,210 --> 00:36:57,359 State the following it's not about 801 00:37:00,890 --> 00:36:59,220 whether or not you believe in 802 00:37:03,349 --> 00:37:00,900 extraterrestrial beings or flying 803 00:37:04,670 --> 00:37:03,359 saucers we can only give technical 804 00:37:06,770 --> 00:37:04,680 information 805 00:37:09,230 --> 00:37:06,780 there are several assumptions 806 00:37:12,410 --> 00:37:09,240 technically I would tell you that we 807 00:37:15,170 --> 00:37:12,420 have no explanation all I can tell for 808 00:37:18,650 --> 00:37:15,180 certain is that these events will be 809 00:37:20,690 --> 00:37:18,660 investigated and within 30 days a report 810 00:37:23,870 --> 00:37:20,700 will be released 811 00:37:29,450 --> 00:37:23,880 that report would not be released to the 812 00:37:32,150 --> 00:37:29,460 public until 23 years later in 2009 813 00:37:35,150 --> 00:37:32,160 the report concluded that quote the 814 00:37:37,550 --> 00:37:35,160 phenomena are solid and reflect in a 815 00:37:40,069 --> 00:37:37,560 certain way intelligence 816 00:37:43,010 --> 00:37:40,079 due to the ability to follow and 817 00:37:45,890 --> 00:37:43,020 maintain a distance from observers as 818 00:37:50,270 --> 00:37:45,900 well as to fly in formation not 819 00:37:53,329 --> 00:37:50,280 necessarily manned end quote 820 00:37:57,589 --> 00:37:53,339 so what exactly happened that night over 821 00:38:03,349 --> 00:37:57,599 Brazil like most other UFO cases remains 822 00:38:09,050 --> 00:38:06,349 while Brazil was undoubtedly busy with 823 00:38:12,170 --> 00:38:09,060 UFO reports throughout history the fact 824 00:38:14,450 --> 00:38:12,180 is this abundance of activity has 825 00:38:17,270 --> 00:38:14,460 continued throughout the decades with 826 00:38:18,950 --> 00:38:17,280 regular UFO encounters reported even 827 00:38:22,069 --> 00:38:18,960 today 828 00:38:22,910 --> 00:38:22,079 so why the abundance in this area of the 829 00:38:25,790 --> 00:38:22,920 world 830 00:38:27,770 --> 00:38:25,800 is it the dense forests and jungles that 831 00:38:30,890 --> 00:38:27,780 offer the chance for either top secret 832 00:38:33,589 --> 00:38:30,900 military projects or is some sort of 833 00:38:37,069 --> 00:38:33,599 non-human intelligence somehow attracted 834 00:38:38,569 --> 00:38:37,079 to these areas rich with nature and 835 00:38:41,750 --> 00:38:38,579 resources 836 00:38:43,730 --> 00:38:41,760 or might the fact that the Atlantic hugs 837 00:38:46,790 --> 00:38:43,740 a huge part of the country offer 838 00:38:49,490 --> 00:38:46,800 Credence to the claims that these alien 839 00:38:53,630 --> 00:38:49,500 entities have established some kind of 840 00:38:57,410 --> 00:38:53,640 permanent presence deep below our oceans 841 00:39:00,530 --> 00:38:57,420 we obviously can't be certain but one 842 00:39:03,349 --> 00:39:00,540 thing we can be certain of is that UFO 843 00:39:06,890 --> 00:39:03,359 Island and Brazil in general is 844 00:39:10,730 --> 00:39:06,900 undoubtedly just as crucial as anywhere 845 00:39:13,550 --> 00:39:10,740 else in unlocking the secrets of the UFO 846 00:39:15,410 --> 00:39:13,560 mystery and as Brazil continues to 847 00:39:19,010 --> 00:39:15,420 experience these anomalous events 848 00:39:21,589 --> 00:39:19,020 perhaps the words of Luis Elizondo will 849 00:39:22,730 --> 00:39:21,599 give them hope of one day finding 850 00:39:25,670 --> 00:39:22,740 answers 851 00:39:28,550 --> 00:39:25,680 somewhere in the skies 852 00:39:31,130 --> 00:39:28,560 here is Elizondo speaking at the 853 00:39:32,990 --> 00:39:31,140 Brazilian hearing greetings ladies and 854 00:39:34,370 --> 00:39:33,000 gentlemen and esteemed members of the 855 00:39:36,770 --> 00:39:34,380 government of Brazil 856 00:39:38,329 --> 00:39:36,780 my name is Luis Elizondo and I'm a 857 00:39:39,950 --> 00:39:38,339 career intelligence officer with the 858 00:39:43,490 --> 00:39:39,960 United States government 859 00:39:45,410 --> 00:39:43,500 from 2008 to 2017 I had the privilege to 860 00:39:48,650 --> 00:39:45,420 participate in a small but significant 861 00:39:51,770 --> 00:39:48,660 program within the Pentagon focusing on 862 00:39:53,390 --> 00:39:51,780 the collection of UFO data in 2010 I was 863 00:39:55,730 --> 00:39:53,400 asked to lead the overall effort which 864 00:39:57,470 --> 00:39:55,740 later became a small footnote to my 865 00:40:00,170 --> 00:39:57,480 country's history involving the 866 00:40:01,910 --> 00:40:00,180 dedicated study of this phenomenon it 867 00:40:03,470 --> 00:40:01,920 was during this time that it became very 868 00:40:05,030 --> 00:40:03,480 evident to all of us involved in the 869 00:40:07,010 --> 00:40:05,040 project that our military was 870 00:40:09,290 --> 00:40:07,020 encountering a technology that far 871 00:40:11,630 --> 00:40:09,300 exceeded our own capabilities 872 00:40:13,550 --> 00:40:11,640 furthermore it was abundantly clear that 873 00:40:15,950 --> 00:40:13,560 this technology had the ability to gain 874 00:40:18,290 --> 00:40:15,960 access to our controlled airspace and 875 00:40:21,710 --> 00:40:18,300 once more perform in ways that was 876 00:40:23,390 --> 00:40:21,720 unimaginable and yet verifiable by some 877 00:40:26,569 --> 00:40:23,400 of our most sophisticated weapon 878 00:40:28,910 --> 00:40:26,579 platforms and data collection techniques 879 00:40:30,770 --> 00:40:28,920 recently elected officials in my country 880 00:40:33,170 --> 00:40:30,780 have decided the evidence was too 881 00:40:34,730 --> 00:40:33,180 overwhelming to ignore and called upon 882 00:40:37,790 --> 00:40:34,740 our defense and intelligence communities 883 00:40:40,550 --> 00:40:37,800 to participate in a public hearing of 884 00:40:42,589 --> 00:40:40,560 which I suspect many more will follow 885 00:40:46,910 --> 00:40:42,599 the result of the hearing was simple and 886 00:40:50,630 --> 00:40:46,920 yet astonishing one UFOs are real 887 00:40:52,010 --> 00:40:50,640 two UFOs most likely represent a real 888 00:40:55,370 --> 00:40:52,020 technology 889 00:40:58,250 --> 00:40:55,380 and three UFOs are considered a national 890 00:41:01,010 --> 00:40:58,260 interest for the United States 891 00:41:02,510 --> 00:41:01,020 further reinforcing this new priority is 892 00:41:04,310 --> 00:41:02,520 a requirement for our defense and 893 00:41:06,589 --> 00:41:04,320 intelligence communities to work with 894 00:41:08,630 --> 00:41:06,599 partner Nations and allies 895 00:41:10,910 --> 00:41:08,640 although I applaud this new renewed 896 00:41:13,550 --> 00:41:10,920 interest in a historically forbidden 897 00:41:15,710 --> 00:41:13,560 area of study it is with great concern 898 00:41:18,710 --> 00:41:15,720 that I worry about any single country 899 00:41:21,109 --> 00:41:18,720 having Monopoly on the study of what is 900 00:41:23,930 --> 00:41:21,119 now considered Beyond Next Generation 901 00:41:25,670 --> 00:41:23,940 technology and by default controlling 902 00:41:28,490 --> 00:41:25,680 the narrative on this topic 903 00:41:30,770 --> 00:41:28,500 ladies and gentlemen today I speak

government-sponsored UFO program 919 00:42:10,310 --> 00:42:07,740 that includes scientists and academics 920 00:42:12,050 --> 00:42:10,320 the time has come to remove conspiracy 921 00:42:15,230 --> 00:42:12,060 theory and replace it with quantum 922 00:42:16,490 --> 00:42:15,240 theory remove stigma and replace it with 923 00:42:19,190 --> 00:42:16,500 Academia 924 00:42:20,690 --> 00:42:19,200
