Colombia: Family Claims Having Witnessed UFO at Tatacoa
The events referred to here occurred last Sunday two kilometers past the observatory.
A visit to the Tatacoa Desert turned into a unique experience for members of the Colorado Acuña family after they saw what in their judgement was a UFO.
According Marcela Acuña López, the event that has shaken the family took place after five o'clock in the afternoon after they returned to Neiva from spending a long day with her brother.
Marcela says that as her sister-in-law took a photo of the desert sunset from the moving vehicle, the camera picked up what she and her sister-in-law believe to be a UFO (unidentified flying object).
The image provided by Marcela Acuña clearly shows how a strange element swiftly crosses the horizon, seemingly propelled by two turbines.
The family has stated their intention to contact experts in the subject in order to provide them with the photos, so that they can determine whether it was a UFO or not.
The subject of UFOs is considered taboo by the scientific community, despite evidence showing that a small percentage of sightings display advanced technology. There is the need for open, evidence-based scientific investigation, rather than based on expectation or prior belief.
