     On Saturday the 2nd July, my wife Angela & I were returning by car to our home in Bexhill, following a family visit to Kent. On the way back, at around 10.40pm, we passed through the small Wealden village of Catsfield. Shortly after leaving the village, we drove over the brow of a low hill before the road then decended into a shallow valley. As we came down the hill, my wife was first to notice, a large group of very bright, circular lights, which were hovering at various levels, across the night sky. They were all further down the hill, to the right hand side of the road.

At first sight, we thought that they may be some very low stars, or perhaps, a huge fleet of search-helicopters or even a large group of hot-air balloons, that may be performing at some kind of late-night event, but as we moved closer & drew alongside them, it soon became obvious that they were a whole fleet of low-flying airships, the like of which, neither of us, had ever seen before.

As we coasted down the hill, their lights were so powerful, that the night air surrounding them, seemed to be illuminated, like some kind of stage-set. The weather conditions that night were clear & still & we could hear no sound emanating from the lights. I slowly brought the car to a standstill, pulling off the road at the entrance of a small lane, leading to a Christmas Tree farm. We got out of the car with our two cameraphones. There, right before us, we could see as many as ten, yellow-tinted, white lights, which were all hovering & manouvering their positions, whilst flying in close proximity to one another.

We could see them all, completely unobscured, at a low level in the sky, not far above, & just behind, four cottages which stood opposite to us, across the road. We were dumbstruck by the controlled & deliberate flying display that was taking place.

During the performance, both of us fumbled around with our cameraphones, trying to grab some pictures, but for some reason, my cameraphone decided to shut down on me, immediatly after my first shot. In the excitement of the moment, I just couldn't seem to be able to get it to re-open again. However, Angela's pictures have still provided us, with some interesting coverage of the event.

     The young man who disseminated a photo of the luminous object that allegedly fell on the community of Esteban Echeverria has been detained for making a false statement. Researchers have now concentrated their investigations on a gas cylinder that was “jury-rigged” to an oven, according to Radio 10.

The causes of the fatal explosion in the community of Esteban Echeverria in early morning hours are becoming clearer. Today at noon, a young man who claimed having seen “a fireball” falling from the sky acknowledged that had been lying. This is the same person who disseminated the image showing an orange object in free-fall.

Authorities in charge of the investigation decided to detain the man for making a false statement and have concentrated their research on the tanks found in one of the homes. Police confiscated a 45 kg cylinder connected in a clandestine manner to a pizza oven. Preliminary investigation suggests that this connection was the source of the leak that caused the tragedy in the province of Buenos Aires.

This conclusion, however, does not account for sightings made by distant onlookers and comments made on INFOBAE that "car ignitions would not start in the wake of the explosion."

     . . . FoIA-liberated documents from the Central Intelligence Agency show how America's stealthy strike force has had a keen interest in strange "aerial phenomena" from all around the world.

We're talking UFOs!

On the CIA's version of The Vault (the less sexily-titled "Electronic Reading Room"), you can find more than 240 publicly available documents related to "unidentified flying objects" spanning more than 50 years. The documents are a mixture of first-hand accounts from field agents as well as summaries of press coverage of strange, unexplained events. . . .

     BUENOS AIRES .- A Peruvian woman died and nine others were injured on Monday in an explosion of unknown origin, that destroyed two buildings of a plant and a children's dining hall about 30 miles southwest of Buenos Aires.

At least four cars were crushed by masonry buildings left in ruins in what looked like a war-scene, while the blast broke windows in the vicinity, in the populous town of Esteban Echeverría. "The neighbors talk of an object falling from the sky. But this has been confirmed," said Fire Chief William Perez. "I do not want to overtake anything. Let's wait for the forensic skills," he said.

Trans-Andean media have reported that all witnesses of fact, including a town councilor Montegrande, a policeman and several neighbors agree that they heard a loud buzzing and saw a great light before feeling the impact on housing. However, do not rule out the possibility that it is an implosion, generated from underground.

Speaking to Channel C5N, Mariano Ribas, Planetary Astronomy coordinator of Buenos Aires, said that "the fall of a meteorite is a hypothesis, but this is a mystery. There are no reports of such occurrences," he said. . . .

     AFTER last week’s report concerning a reader who saw a strange, triangular-shaped object flying over the skies of Leighton, a couple have written to the LBO telling of their strange, close encounter on the same evening.

An email from a woman ,who only identified herself as ‘Christine’, said: “After reading the Observer this week and finding out that someone has seen what they think to have been a UFO, I can confirm that both my husband and I also witnessed this on Friday, September 9 between 11.30pm and midnight as we walked along the Woburn Road in Heath and Reach heading towards the direction of Leighton Buzzard.

“A bright orange light larger than an aircraft’s landing lights and travelling at a considerable speed passed over us heading in the direction of Milton Keynes. As it passed above us we were aware that it was very quiet, almost silent, it looked like the shape of a triangle with rounded corners and a number of bright orange lights. . . .

     It was over a week ago of southeast San Antonio claims he spotted an Unidentified Flying Object, or a UFO. Regardless of whether you believe him or not he’s quickly gaining a lot of attention on-line.

“I was pointing that way and I saw that object traveling that way, going east,” said Vallejo. “First of all no navigational lights that’s what got my attention at first. Then I started zooming in and I started seeing the different configuration of the lights.” . . .
