It's a strange event that took place on Saturday, March 11, 1950 in Lima, and is described in detail by Julian Gardola, engineer of the airport with Panagra - Pan American Grace Airways.

"It was about 8:20 PM - explains Gardiol, when it happened a strange event," adding: "there Were many people that were walking and talking around the Park Salazar. The sky was dark and moonless. Suddenly a glowing orange sphere, more than any other star, appeared over Morro de Chorrillos".

"At first it was thought that this may be the celestial body of considerable size or a meteorite. It was later determined that it is not. The object traveled there, where we were, passing through Chorrillos, stopping for five minutes, and then quickly went to the side of the sea."

Original news

This is a strange event that took place on Saturday, 11 March 1950 in Lima and was described in detail to the newsroom of this publisher by Julián Gardol, an airport engineer with Panagra -- Pan American Grace Airways. The story has a special turn to it, as the witness was an official who was well-versed with aviation, and his story is framed within the prior knowledge that adds greater likelihood to his story.

"It was more or less 8:20 in the evening," Gardiol explains, "when the strange sighting occurred," adding: "There were many people strolling and chatting around Parque Salazar. The sky was dark and moonless. Suddenly a luminous orange sphere, larger than any star, appeared over Morro de Chorrillos."

"At first it was thought that it could be a heavenly body of considerable magnitude, or a meteor flying swiftly through space. It was later ascertained that this was not the case. The object traveled to where we were, passing over Chorrillos, stopping for five minutes, remaining motionless, only to quickly head out to sea."
