Argentina: The Day a UFO Left Us Stunned (1968)

**In 1968, a large number of residents of Mendoza reported seeing UFOs. One of the most disquieting cases occurred in Luján.**

Fifty years ago, our province was shaken by sightings of UFO crossing the skies. Not only that, some Mendoza residents were supposedly abducted by beings from other worlds.

These events took place in the month of June and had their greatest repercussions in late August 1968, when two employees of the Provincial Casino - Juan Carlos Pecinetti and Fernando Villegas, claimed having come across small extraterrestrial beings in the 6th Section of the city. Their story transcended borders, as they were interviewed by national and foreign media.

Aside from the Peccinetti and Villegas Case, others were also widespread, such as the one involving the Luján de Cuyo refinery, covered by a reporter from Los Andes with an amusing interview. Sometime later, the alleged abduction experienced by the two casino workers in the heart of the city proved to be a fraud. There are several ufologists, however, who still believe the contrary.

The Little Green Men of Luján

Around that time, the so-called "flying saucers" caused a veritable psychosis in Mendoza. Let us take a look at the interview by Los Andes with some of the witnesses at the Luján de Cuyo refinery.

The article is dated 2 September 1968 and bears the title: "Coincidences Exist Between Strange Creature Apparition Accounts"

"The strange events described by Juan Carlos Peccinetti and Fernando Villegas are acquiring peers: people who refused to disclose their alleged experiences, fearing ridicule, are now emboldened and have disconcerting things to talk about.

"Enrique Serdoch, a chemical technician employed in the laboratories of the YPF Luján Refinery, was the spokesman for what occurred to one of his co-workers. According to his testimony, José Paulino Núñez, 33, a resident of Luján, kept silent for over a month about his encounter with alien beings who showed him a sphere that projected images, much as occurred in the case involving the casino workers.

"The lab employees (Serdoch himself, Alberto González, Roberto Micelutti, Carlos Wengorra, Hugo Torres, Enrique Aporta and Ricardo Schmid) were aware of the events as from the date on which they took place, but respected their co-worker's discretion.

"Núñez is currently hospitalized at the Hospital Español, recovering from a surgery entirely unrelated to his experience, which Serdoch described thus:

"At 1:15 in the morning on the last Sunday in June, José was at the tank farm conducting an assay. The area is very dark and the only people around are watchmen. My friend ran into two people he believed to be watchmen when he came down from a fuel oil tank.

"This was not the case. The strangers showed him a circular object measuring 30 centimeters in diameter that showed colored figures. As he told me, he could see people walking around 'as though filmed with a hidden camera at any street'. The background was clear, and the clothing and activities of the figures were not striking.

"The creatures asked: "Do you know them? They were like you. Many more shall be like them. Many people in your world will see the same that you have. We shall speak of this again. If you discuss this, do it with people amenable [to the subject]."

"Nuñez, according to Serdoch, has no idea how he reached his pickup truck and drove the kilometer distance that separated him from the lab, where he was quizzed by his co-worker Alberto González:

"What's wrong? What's a matter?" to which Nunez asked "What do I look like?" You're as white as a sheet of paper, said Gonzalez. Nuñez broke into tears and both men returned to the tank farm, but they found nothing remarkable.

The similarity of this experience with the one involving the casino workers moved Núñez to authorize his friend to discuss it.

We asked Serdoch about the visitors' traits: "Núñez told me," he answered, "that their voices were metallic, as though coming from the inside of a milk churn. Their outfits were one-piece, similar to those worn by frogmen. There was nothing abnormal about their stature, but his position at the time - at a higher level, on the access ladder to the tanks - kept him from seeing them properly."

"Our source added that Núñez is a straight arrow, not considered impressionable, and that his state of excitement was evident.

"Furthermore," he said, "another co-worker dispelled any doubts we may have had. His last name is Giampetri and he worked as a technician at the refinery. He told us that on that very same day, somewhat earlier, he was on his way back from San Juan in the company of his wife and children and saw a flying saucer. He kept quiet out of a fear of ridicule."

Argentina: Livestock Farmer Experiences Strange and "Inexplicable" Phenomena

**Events took place in the department of Diamante**
**A livestock farmer from Costa Grave reported the "birth of a calf shaped like a baby", the absence of 120,000 liters of water from his water storage tanks, circular burn marks and mutilated cows**

A rural livestock farmer from Costa Grande published a sequence of photographs on social media accompanied by a story of strange and "inexplicable" phenomena on his property in the department of Diamante.

Jorge Menón reported on the strange events that took place in his fields on five separate occasions.

Bearing the title "It looks like they visited me a few days ago - one more time, for the 5th time", he said that the first of the strange events recorded was the birth of a "calf shaped like a baby."

On a second and third instance, he noted the absence of 60,000 liters of water from a water storage tank - events he qualified as "inexplicable."

The fourth event involved "round burn marks on the premises, burned in a circle" plus a loss of power to his television set, air conditioning unit and computer. "It was necessary to reprogram everything," he claims.

The fifth time involved the discovery of dead animals showing strange signs of mutilation.

In his publication, the man stated that he feels "exhausted and harassed" by the situation.

Argentina: Telepathic Humanoid in Mendoza? (1979)

Argentina: Telepathic Humanoid in Mendoza? (1979)
By Pablo Omastott

Mendoza, Wednesday 19 September 1979. Around 19:00 hours, Hector Daniel Lara, 11, invited his friend Ricardo Jose Morón to play on a swing near a large tract of empty land in the Santa Ines district, where both boys lived.

While they played, Hector observed something in the sky and said so to his friend Ricardo. It was a red light that approached them at an altitude of 20 meters from the southeast, turning on and off.
After a few seconds, the light came to rest in the empty tract, some 70 meters from the witnesses. After a few moments, it"bounced" approximately 2 meters before coming to rest on the ground again.
Startled, the boys ran off to tell other friends (Adrián and Ulises Sepúlveda and Omar Barranca) who at first did not believe them, but then decided to accompany the first two witnesses back to the empty lot.



The object was still there when they reached the sighting location. After a few minutes, they noticed some strange luminous manifestations, described by the witnesses as "blue and white flashes." Seconds later, the object turned off and they heard a strange noise they compared to "the crack of a whip." Once the sound had faded away, no further manifestations were visible. The object had disappeared.

None of those present witnessed the object rise into the air. When they approached the landing site later on, they could see a circle traced on the ground within which five small perforations were evident - four on the sides and one in the middle. The witnesses reported the event to the police authorities of the city of Luján. They were questioned and later examined by members of the Comisión Nacional de Energía Atómica (CNEA).

That very same day, but in the early morning hours, Cpl. Anibal Raul Petracini of the Argentinean Army observed a circular object from the kitchen window of his home in La Gloria, Dept. of Godoy Cruz in the same province. It landed in an empty lot some 20-25 meters distant, and was approximately 2 meters in diameter and half a meter tall.

A few seconds after seeing the bizarre object, a human-like figure measuring some 40-50 centimeters appeared in front of him and to the right of the object, wearing extremely white clothing that bore the only detail of a green fringe or visor around the eyes.

The soldier had the sensation of having received a message. "I never knew what the message was," he said later. "I do not know it; it felt like something telepathic, without hearing voices, tones or anything. I simply felt it."

The protagonist does not have a clear notion of the time elapsed, but ventures to say that the entire strange encounter lasted some 15 to 20 minutes. Finally, he does not remember the circumstances under which the sighting concluded. At 7 a.m. on Thursday the 20th, he was awakened as usual by the alarm clock, lying down and covered by the sheets, beside his family.

Argentina: An "Invisible UFO" Over Tucumán

Photographs taken by Francisco Leal in Amaicha Del Valle, Tucumán (Argentina), Paraje El Remate. The photographer was supervising a project for the provincial authority involving creation of a potable water facility on 09.06.2018 at 17:41 hours. He decided to take some photos of the project. In the second of these, an unidentified flying object appeared (UFO). He was using Samsung Galaxy S8 cellphone, a fine camera with a good sensor that offers high definition photographs - Javier Lopez Posse, G.I.O.T. (Grupo de Investigación Ovni Tucumán).



Our thanks to Javier Lopez Posse of GIOT and Luis Burgos of FAO/ICOU for this information. The term "invisible UFO" refers to anomalous objects that were not apparent to the photographer at the time the photo was taken.

Argentina's 2018 UFO Flap - So Far

Luis Burgos states: According to our Decimal Hypothesis, which we have been developing since 1985 with great efficacy. It is very likely that an increase in UFO sightings will occur in Argentina and neighboring countries during 2018. Despite the fact that 2016 and 2017 were considerably lacking in sightings, using the TWO LARGEST UFO WAVES - 1968 and 1978 - would suggest a renewed saucer effect over Argentina. We must be mindful, because a "UFO Flap" brings with it a swarm of additional situations of all kinds in the heavens, waters and land.



Statistics for the phenomenon point out that all manner of events occur during each instance of a UFO Flap: Sightings, ground marks on fields, humanoid sightings, video and photographic evidence, mysterious skyfalls, atmospheric explosions, undersea objects, etc. In 2018 we also have cattle mutilations, which go hand in hand with saucer reports. For the time being, our Decimal Hypothesis remains strong.



Moreover - as a separate entry - the journalistic media, particularly in the interior, is offering a constant treatment of the subject, reporting everything that people are seeing in their respective regions. We would like to thank FAO and ICOU's members, consultants and collaborators. At the end of the year, of course, there will be an evaluation of cases and HIGH STRANGENESS events will be extracted.

Argentina: Strange Luminous Object in Saldungaray
Date: 09.17.2018
By Luis Burgos, FAO

Once again our contributor Felipe Flores, the protagonist of the event that took place on August 1st, has informed us of a remarkable sighting that occurred on Wednesday, September 12 in Saldungaray, a locality in southern Buenos Aires province. That night, he went out hunting with his stepson, 17, and traveled some twelve kilometers to a hill in the region.



At 21:30 hours both were able to see a strange, yellowish light toward the south. This light was static and only a few degrees over the horizon. Over the course of several minutes, it changed to a reddish color until it vanished altogether, not without giving off a few flashes before doing so.

While the witnesses were unable to specify the distance, the night, covered in a fine layer of fog, helped them tell the aerial body was only a few kilometers distant from their location.

Astronomy software packages were consulted and the only star visible at 21:30 hours on the southern horizon was Canopus, but with a magnitude only -0.9, added to the prevailing fog, made it unlikely as the possible cause of some confusion. At that same time, but in the region of Puerto Madero, in Capital Federal (Federal District), Walter Ruiz Diaz and his girlfriend were witnessing a similar phenomenon toward the Río de la Plata.

High Strangeness: A "Witch" Frightens Residents of Soledad, Colombia

Colombia: "Witch" Frightens Residents of Soledad

Some local residents have allegedly been chased by a "diabolical" hag that climbs trees.

Residents of 10 de Mayo district of Soledad have been harassed by the alleged appartion of a 'witch' in the area. Some claim having been pursued by this figure, others claim seeing her up in the treetops and even flying. A curfew has been set in the community to keep people from leaving their homes at night.

Some of the people who claim having seen the supposed 'witch' described her to the Al Dia newspaper as an elederly woman with pale and wrinkled skin, standing a meter and a half tall, long black hair covering her face, fangs and fingernails so long as to resemble claws. They have seen her flying among the trees from backyard to backyard, leaving a wake of smoke in her path.

According to Andres Fuentes Dañer, a 22-year-old man known as 'Indio': "I was walking alone through the neighborhood when I heard people screaming. That was last Thursday (June 28) around eight o'clock in the evening. When I asked what was going on, they told me it was a witch. I had a white thread and a bow in in my hands. I wanted to tie her up. That's how you catch a witch. That's how my grandfather told me it was done."

Dañer was given money by his neighbors to go after the putative 'witch' and force her to leave the area.

"Since there are so many trees in the area, this has attracted the witch. The first time we saw her she was hiding in the medlar trees in our home. She was dressed in black, had boots on, and moved surrounded in smoke," said Ikin Dario Ortiz, another local resident.

Thre are many skeptics in the neighborhood. Some declared a curfew to keep anyone from leaving their houses at night. Furthermore, they have placed slippers in the shape of a cross at the foot of each bed, rosaries behind the doors, and are burning candles to the Blessed Virgin.

Costa Rica: Luminous Object Over San José

Independence Day morning was different in the skies over San José's Coronado District, when security guard Ingrid Herrera noticed an object flying over the area.

At 7:14 on 15 September 2018, Ingrid saw the disc-shaped object from her home, as can be attested by the photograph's EXIF information and the GPS data of the Samsung cellphone. The image was left intact.

Ingrid managed to take three photographs of an object which according to her eyewitness account did not move. It remained stationary without making any noise. After taking the third photograph, the object simply vanished.

Breaking News - Startling New Mutilations in Ojo de Agua, Santiago del Estero.
By Luis Burgos, FAO

The situation is reaching historic proportions. The Justice department intervenes in an Argentinean cattle mutilation case. Statements made by Dr. Renzo Capellini of SENASA (National Food Safety and Quality Service).

Full text of the complaint filed with the police:

"I hereby make you aware that on this day at 10:30 hours, a formal complaint was made before the police department by citizen BAEZ, RAUL GUSTAVO, age 73, retired, ID Card xxxxxxxx, having residence in the Palermo district of the city of Villa Ojo de Agua, against PERSONS UNKNOWN, stating in his report that he is the owner of a property in Paraje La Totorilla, Dept. of Ojo de Agua, with a total of one hundred fifty-two head of cattle. Approximately fifteen days ago, it so happened that ten of these animals were found dead - eight cows, a heifer, a calf - and three of these were mutilated, missing their tongues and eyes and part of their reproductive system, the causes of their death being unknown. Along with his son MAURO BAEZ, a veterinarian, they performed surgery to examine and try to ascertain the causes of death, noting that no other animal such as crows, foxes, ants and/or any other carrion animal came close to the deceased; no blood was evident, no footprints or tire tracks were evident in the area either. Prosecutor Dr. Julio Vidal was advised of the situation, ordering a summary investigation aimed at determining the causes of death of the animals reported in this instance, asking SENASA be appraised in order that it may present a detailed report on the alleged causes of death. An administrative record and visual inspection is to be carried. At 17:00 Commissioner Guzman Baez and personnel from the Criminalistics section, along with veterinarian Renzo Capellini, headed to the site to comply with the order issued by the office of the prosecutor. They interviewed Mr. ROQUE MENDOZA, of legal age, domiciled at Paraje La Totorilla, Dept. of Ojo de Agua, who said that approximately fifteen days ago, when rounding up the animals in the wilderness, he found that ten of them were dead and four were missing their tongues and had incisions in their genital area (anus) and had no blood. Citizen Baez, owner of the bovines, was apprised of this. He also learned that his neighbors, ACOSTA TOMAS FIDEL and VILLARRUEL FLORENCIO had also suffered the loss of bovines, some of which were mutilated. It is noted that veterinarian Capellini of SENASA was unable to extract specimens for lab analysis due to the level of decomposition of the animals. He stated having never seen mutilations of that sort and that this could be a paranormal case (textual), noting that incisions of this sort are only made with a laser scalpel, and that he would draft a report as soon as possible."

[Note: This is the first time that an officer of SENASA acknowledges the possibility of a "paranormal" explanation to a cattle mutilation.]

Argentina: Another Fireball - This Time in Constitución

Pedestrians walking past the vicinity of the train station locaed in the Buenos Aires district of Constitución were stunned at the sight of an impressive "fireball" that fell from the sky. One witness submitted the images to Crónica and detailed the incredible event.



"I was waiting for a bus near the train station this Wednesday at noon. Wehn I looked at the sky, I saw [the object] fall. It was a very strange object. It was ball shaped and changed colors," said Aldo, 42.


He added: "It turned orange and then bright red. The ball left a wake of smoke as it fell. I didn't hear any noise because you could tell it was far away. However, I was stunned. I'd never seen anything like it.

Acting quickly, the witness pulled out his cellphone and took photos of the artifact to provide evidence to his statements.

Argentina: Facebook User Claims Seeing UFO at El Sosneado

Social media is a space in which users are able to share any opinion, or share experiences with persons they do not know and are never likely to know.

This was the case with Pablo Pierre, who appealed to a Facebook pace to publish two photographs in which a dark horizontal line is shown in the sky. He and his friend believe the artifact appearing in the photo to be a possible unidentified flying object (UFO).

The sighting, according to Pierre, occured in the skies over El Sosneado on National Route 40. No sooner had Pierre posted the item than hundreds and hundres of comments from other users gave rise to a broad debate about the nature of what could be seen in the photo.

Many took the published images to be a joke. They mocked Pierre and even asked him to "clean his windshield". Others made political barbs about the subject, but a sizeable portion of internauts agreed that El Sosneado and its vicinity are UFO sighting area, adducing examples of their own experiences or those of others.

The myth surrounding flying saucers from elsewhere in the universe is once again under scrutiny, this time on Facebook, where the publication did not take long to become viral.

Argentina: Strange Light Visible in Skies Over La Pampa

Argentina: Strange Light Visible in Skies Over La Pampa

From Quemú Quemú, Agustoni, Trenel it was possible to see a strange light that colored the sky a hue that oscilated between sky blue and green. It was possible to see the phenomenon for some five seconds. It could be a meteorite or even space junk, which cause this kind of luminosity when entering the atmosphere.

A family from General Pico driving in their car along provincial route 1 between [the towns] of Miguel Cané and Quemú Quemú said that around 20:209 hours, they saw a "blue light" that lit up the entire road and surrounding fields.

Elisabet Gallo, 34, her husband Cristian Albornoz,34, and their children, ages 14 and 3 respectively, were driving from Cané to Pico in a Ford Fiesta. "We were heading back to Pico when on the approach to Quemú, in a wide curve, everything lit up all of a sudden," said Elisabet.

The light lasted some five seconds, by her calculations. "It didn't give us time to take photos or record it with our cellphones," she said. "It was impressive, we were stunned."

She is certain that it wasn't a lightning bolt. There were neither clouds nor storms in the area at the time. "I don't know what it was, but we are sure that it wasn't a lightning bolt. It lit us up and everything went blue. I don't know if it was a UFO or a meteorite, but I'm sure it wasn't lightning," said the woman.

They weren't alone: their parents claimed seeing a similar light between Trilí and Quemú.

The same phenomenon was also witnessed by former councilman Guillermo García, who was between Quemú and Agustoni. "It was like a lightning bolt. The heavens went sky blue," he said. Yolanda Mora of Quemú offered a similar report, as did Griselda Cuadrado, who saw the same from the town of Agustoni.

Residents of Trenque Lauquen, Province of Buenos Aires, also saw an intense sky-blue light.

[A follow-up to the compelling newspaper article appeared days later with the following heading:
PARANORMAL PHENOMENON: The story of a family from Pico with the strange blue light. "I couldn't steer my car. It malfunctioned 70 kilometers after the light appeared. The article included an interview with the protagonists of this experience which later appeared on YouTube. INEXPLICATA offers an English transcription of their experience below:

Liliana Lemos: I couldn't control it, no.

Venezuela: UFOs Visitations in Venezuela

Planeta Azul appears once more, this time in Venezuela, a South American region rich in hydrocarbons, potable water and minerals. Throughout time, Venezuela has been visited by Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and there are countless examples of sightings and even people who claim having experienced encounters with beings from other planets. There are few who can remain indifferent and not take sides in this subject, either roundly denying these theories or supporting them vehemently.

Regarding the phenomenology of UFOs in the skies of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, it is said that "numerous sightings" have been recorded in this Latin American nations. "The first of them goes back to 1900. However, due to the lack of dissemination of scientific information about these subjects, people tend to mistake natural and meteorological phenomena, or even airplanes, for UFOs.

Alleged UFO sightings have occurred in nearly all of Venezuelan territory, but eight states are considered "hot spots" due to the appearance of this phenomenon: Amazonas, Bolivar, Distrito Capital, Carabobo, Falcón, Mérida, Vargas and Zulia. "All of these sites have two common elements: an abundance of vegetation and water," although the state of Barinas gives us an interesting case of abduction and human-alien hybridization: When she tried to ascertain the source of the noise that had awakened her, Cecilia (who would rather not be identified by her real name) realized she could not move. She had not covered herself up with bed sheets because of the intense heat that night in 2005 in the city of Barinas, in southwestern Venezuela.

She was unable to see anything. Before her, there appeared a very bright green light that forced her to shut her eyes. Motionless and unable to see what was happening around her, she felt herself being sexually penetrated and unable to do anything to stop it.

She woke up around noon, unable to remember what happened later. In subsequent weeks she would find out she was pregnant.

Cecilia explained the event to one of her neighbors. She had been 'abducted' that night, and she claims that her daughter, who is now twelve years old, presents 'particular characteristics' that she refused to elaborate upon, but which caused her to remove her from school due to the harassment she suffered at the hands of other students.

It is precisely because her daughter has undergone so many bad experiences that Cecilia refused to subject her to medical tests. Her case has not be scientifically studied.

Alleged Venezuelan sightings have occurred at different times, both day and night, with clear or cloudy skies.

The data compiled shows that circular, triangular and elongated shapes - cigar type - have been seen.

The vast majority of cases received in our newsroom are classified as "chance UFO sightings" because the person was unable to see the UFO with his/her own eyes, but rather were picked up their camera lenses. In other words, the witness finds out upon downloading the image.

Planeta Azul believes that no one is qualified to state whether UFOs of an extraterrestrial origin truly exist. In fact, a UFO is not necessarily a spacecraft. Someone can toss a shoe in the air and if someone sees it, but cannot make it out, that person will have seen an unidentified flying object. UFO is not synonymous with extraterrestrial. In recent years, there have been sighting reports over nearly all social and political demonstrations that have taken place since the start of the Bolivarian Revolution," giving rise to the theory that some kind of man-made artifact is involved - one that is unknown or about which little information exists.

I believe that many things have happened in Venezuela from the political standpoint, and that this country has been beleaguered and harassed. For example, we have photos and videos of people attending the demonstrations and who manage to capture some object in the sky. Is it possible that these are objects that are still unknown to us? Are they used to spy or photograph? This is possible, particularly in the awareness that the Pentagon has developed micro drones with very powerful microphones and cameras. When delving into the UFO phenomenon, one has to look closely to sort information from hoaxes that may be taken as real. We would never dare to say that it was an alien spacecraft. We always speak in terms of alleged flying objects."

Cryptozoology: Cyclist Photographs a "Giant Worm"

Young Erick Ivan went out for a bicycle ride as he normally does. However, last night, an extra-normal event befell him on the scenic highway near the vicinity of the summit known as Cerro de la Calavera" (Skull Hill). The photograph shows a sort of "giant worm" that appears to be walking erect.

The young sportsman acknowledged that strange things like this always happen when one goes out at night. Oddly enough, al Residents of La Paz are aware of this. It rained in the state's capital that evening - an event that could have prompted this species to emerge from the scene.

We are providing the photograph taken. You be the judge.
