Spain

On the territory of Spain in 1965, the wreckage of an unidentified space object fell. The Americans, suspecting that these were parts of the Soviet Vostok rocket, demanded to provide them with all the source materials and documents, which was done. Now Spain has decided to declassify the US report on this fact.

We are talking about report No. T67 94769, which records eyewitness accounts of strange rays that appeared in the sky on December 6, 1965 and the discovery of 14 material units of "one or more space objects of unknown origin in the areas of Fuente de Cantos and Montemolin (Bodajos) and Laura del Rio (Seville)."

The spread between the wreckage was 100 kilometers. Immediately after the local press reported the incident, the American embassy in Madrid sent a letter to the then ruler of Spain, Caudillo Francisco Franco, asking him to send all the materials on the case to the United States. Franco ordered to satisfy the request of the Americans in exchange for providing information about the results of the research.

One of those involved in the investigation of the case, Vicente Juan Ballester Olmos, the only officially known person who had access to all the case materials, said in an interview with the newspaper E l Mundo that the report will soon be posted on the Internet.

In June 1967, the American Battelle Memorial Institute presented a 300-page report entitled "The study of five metallic bodies of cosmic origin." On the first page of the case, the inscription: "Secret. For transfer exclusively to the Spanish Government."

It is written in the introduction that the case has been assigned the highest secrecy group, i.e. its declassification and automatic lowering of the secrecy level are excluded. It goes on to say that the information contained in the report constitutes a threat to the national security of the United States.

Even the famous case "Roswell" (Roswell), investigating the fall of a UFO in the United States in 1947, and containing an autopsy report on the body of an alien does not have such a high degree of secrecy. Why? What is the secret behind the case of the UFO crash In Spain? Why has the Spanish government only partially opened the curtain, even though 43 years have passed since the fall?

Report No. T67 94769 once again confirms the legitimacy of the existence of such a science as ufology. However, according to Olmos, none of the five (four Spanish and one American) reports on the fall of UFOs in Spain in 1965 contains conclusions that allow us to talk about the alien origin of the wreckage. There can be as many cases that are not subject to declassification as you like, but this does not mean that attempts are being made to hide the reality.

"If the Ministry of Defense does not declassify those documents where it is a question of possible contacts with UFOs, it means that conclusions were made not in favor of this version. In this particular case, the wreckage found is the details of the Soviet rocket carrier Vostok," believes Olmos, who was the only civilian who took part in the declassification of the case between 1990 and 1999.

According to him, the Soviet Union officially announced the last launch of the Vostok rocket on March 18, 1965. According to this version, the debris that fell on the territory of Spain could not be the details of this launch vehicle, which for a long time fueled the mystery about the Spanish UFO.

In reality, Olmos explains, the USSR carried out secret launches. One of these was the launch, on December 3, 1965.

"A launch vehicle with a satellite was launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome in the direction of the Moon. This attempt ended unsuccessfully. Fragments of the SL-6 (Vostok) rocket carrier fell on the territory of Spain," he claims.

Of the 14 objects described in the report, there are: a metal sphere with a diameter of 40 centimeters and a weight of 5 kilograms. Two cylinders 40 centimeters high and 20 centimeters in diameter. Some parts of the correct shape reach a weight of seven kilograms.

According to El Mundo, the Soviet Union only in 1970 successfully carried out a soft landing on the surface of the Moon of the lunar rover, which transmitted the first images of the Earth's satellite. In 1965, the Americans gave the project the highest degree of secrecy, as these rules were dictated by the Cold War. They wanted to understand how far the USSR had overtaken them and, perhaps, "copy" some technical solutions.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Space debris

By space junk refers to all manmade objects and their fragments in space, which is already faulty, not functioning, and will never be able to serve any useful purpose. Currently in low earth orbits up to altitudes of about 2000 km is, according to various estimates, about 220 thousand (300 thousand according to the UN office for outer space Affairs, October 2009) man-made objects weighing up to 5000 tons.
In the case of UFOs, it is possible to expand this list lost cosmonauts things (tools, etc.).

Booster, the rocket and tracks

For UFOs often take stages of rockets, parts of space ships burning in the atmosphere, the launches of various missile technology for military purposes, etc., and traces from them. They attract attention mostly in the dark, but in the day time have a greater aura of mystery.

Formation of the track of the launch vehicle occurs in the tropopause (the layer between the troposphere and stratosphere), which sharply reduced the vertical temperature gradient. The emergence of the so-called "jellyfish" influenced by water vapor, which are subject to enhanced condensation.
