🇧🇷 Fuerza Aérea (Operação Prato)
In April 1970, a group of Brazilian merchants had an unforgettable experience when they witnessed a UFO phenomenon in the Santa Catarina region. While traveling in a Kombi van, they were surprised by an unidentified object that, according to their account, lifted them to a great height and took them on a mysterious journey. The vehicle was immobilized by a strong magnetic field, and the witnesses claim it was illuminated by an intense multicolored light beam. After being deposited in a distant location, the merchants noticed that the same object also stopped a loaded truck. This case was officially documented by the Brazilian Air Force and became one of the most curious episodes in local ufology.
The incident generated a detailed report, including testimonies and physical descriptions of the object. Although no conclusive evidence was found, the merchants' testimony and the description of the phenomenon have kept the discussion about the nature of the event alive. The Brazilian Air Force classified the case as an unidentified phenomenon, and the account remains a point of interest for researchers and UFO enthusiasts.
