Sighting of a luminous phenomenon in Almería in 1968

Summary

In December 1968, a civilian contacted military authorities in Almería after observing a luminous phenomenon oscillating in the sky. The witness described it as an unidentified flying object, but provided no details about its shape, size, or speed. Only the exact times of the sightings were recorded: 16:20 and 16:25 on December 9. The official report highlights the lack of concrete information, making it difficult to analyze or hypothesize about its nature.

The investigation found no air traffic in the area, but no further studies were conducted due to the scarcity of data. Despite this, the case was reviewed decades later and finally classified as declassified. The original document, preserved in the Central Library of the Air Force, includes a letter from the General Subinspector of the 2nd R.A. to the GJEMA, detailing the witness's communication with the Air Commander of Almería. This case, though brief, is part of the Spanish UFO archive and reflects the methodology for recording unidentified aerial phenomena at the time.
