It's wonderful, here in Guarabira the UFOs came back in a greater number,
they are now appearing at evening and closer, people it's wonderful.Those 
who didn't watch need to come here, the people from Sao Paulo who are
specialists on this subject have to make a research here like it was made 
In Varginha.

I'm making a huge list with all that has occurred here until today,
it's wonderful.

Saturday was one of the best days, people went to a desert area of town
where they had a better view. Suddenly a large metalic object disk shaped
downed from the sky without lights around, only a one light wheeling at
down in its center. After this, lights around was turned on and the object
became lighted up, people seeing the lights only. A few hours later three
objects triangle shaped appeared from the same way, lights off, and then 
turned lights on and started to move. People it's wonderful, it's real. 
The ufologic group of this region thinks that here in Guarabira they have 
their entrance in Earth across the magnetic field, 'cause they're choosing 
the same time and point in Guarabira sky for their reentrance in atmosphere, 
but it's each day, I repeat, each day. The ufologic group
got to film them last saturday.

I would like you send a warning to those ufologists from Varginha (I
forget the names).

Brasilia Sightings

Date: Sat, 24 Aug 1996 09:24:24 EST5EDT
From: ovni@navigat.ax.apc.org
Reply-To: iufo@alterzone.com
Subject: UFO over Brasilia.

-> SearchNet's iufo Mailing List

Ola All,

This is what was in a report published by
Correio Braziliense, a local paper,on 23rd August 1996:


University Brasilia Especialist Contests
Apparation of a UFO Over South Lake

The University of Brasilia's (UnB) Ufology Studies Nucleus coordinator, the anthropologist Wilson Geraldo de Oliveira, criticized the truthfullness of the alleged apparition of a UFO over Lago Sul (South Lake) in the early morning yesterday.

Wilson de Oliveira saw the 8 minutes and 56 seconds of video tape recorded by corporal Jose Raimundo Galdino, present at the moment of the apparition, and concluded: it will be needed much more to prove the passage of a flying saucer in the Federal Capital skies.

Wilson said that the images taken by the Military Police corporal, as well as the photographs taken by a free-lancer photographer, Marcelo Leite de Oliveira another witness of the phenomena, were similar to dozens that since 1991 are being filed by the UnB Nucleus; only a bright point of light passing over in the sky.

AIRPLANE

In the home of corporal Galdino, in Ceilandia (Trans.Note: a satellite town around Brasiliaw the UnB researcher took his crew to watch the video with the apparition of a UFO, Wilson de Oliveira observed a detail that had escaped so far: in a certain part of the tape, the alleged flying saucer appears to be passing close to an airplane, similar to a fighter from FAB (Brazilian Air Force). Only the fighter noise is perceptible.

"It is a very provocative detail, very interesting. The UFO appears to make a vertical movement, as if it were diverting its route from the fighter" tells Wilson, freezing the image to capture the detail.

The UnB ufologists got a copy of the tape and now they want to examine the film negative shot in the same local. But cautious, Eduardo Dorneles Barcelos, director of AEB (Brazilian Space Agency), is convinced that the images are far from proving an extraterrestrial apparition.

Researcher of the Astronomnldnces Museum of CNPq in Rio de Janeiro, Eduardo Barcelos says that the registers of lights in the skies of Brasilia could be a routine metereological phenomena.

HYPOTHESIS

"There's a infinite amount of metereological, astronomical or even of human origin phenomena, that can originate lights in the sky. I did see nothing that resembled a flying saucer. As it always happens, the serious proofs stay only in the memory of a few people", says Eduardo.

According to the researcher, the blueish lights in the skies of Brasilia could be, amongst other things: a ball lightning, which are electrical discharges in a oval shape and that move fast in the skies; luminous gases, product of the combustion of organic products in decomposition; or even metereological balloons.

"Therefore to conclude that it is an extraterrestrial spaceship is a big leap. It is like jumping in the abyss. There is no indicative that it had been a flying saucer" points out Eduardo, who amuses himself with flying saucers.

 AND THE LATEST INCIDENT IS UNUSUALLY WELL DOCUMENTED.
I live in Brasilia, I saw the Television report, for which I was invited to attend and declined for other reasons. I think the film is not good enough to allow us to draw a conclusion about the phenomena. I have talked to an eye witness and will be talking again as soon as possible to get more details of the sighting. For now, the witnesses (Mr. Ramilson, who works for Caixa Economica Federal, a bank) told me the object was moving fast and moved and stoped over the Paranoa Dam, and was visible for some two hours. He lives near the Dam and was awaken by the noise of police cars and the officers called to see what was going on.

More to come...
