Yessir. The very same network that originally catapulted this case into the national consciousness has now become the one to systematically dismantle it. The production used some sharp visual storytelling to enhance its narrative, the background...

TV Globo de Televisão produced a 30-year special on the Varginha case. It is a 3-episode docu-series, available on Globoplay: https://globoplay.globo.com/o-misterio-de-varginha/t/nFTcDsdqFw/ The first episode sets up the case, showcasing the...

CNN is reporting claims from four anonymous sources that the Department of Homeland Security purchased a device in late 2024 allegedly linked to Havana Syndrome and DoD has been studying and testing it since then. My first thought is this feels...

No, "the military" is entirely 100٪ composed of our fellow humans. Like the rest of us, some are heroes and some are bad folks on balance, but all of them have good and bad traits just like me and you and everybody else. Like other human...

because witnesses lie. maybe the photographer was actually in Hillyhock canoodling with his best friends girlfriend on July 26th. And since the best friend already knows Hillyhock is his canoodling place and is already wondering where his gf...

I think (but obviously don't know) that the former is more likely. Maybe for his own curiosity, maybe to try and verify some of the claimed details before passing the story up the chain or both. It might have been beyond his remit (not expected...

I just don't understand why they would do that. I mean, either the plane is a genuine jet flying over Calvine on 4 August 1990, or the story is fake (fake photos and/or a fake backstory), right? Any serious investigation of this case would mainly...

I tend to agree with @dirdre on this one. Granted it was all 30 years ago and the details seem to have been lost, but IF we take Lindsay at his word, it doesn't sound all that weird does it. The Daily Record has the photos, possibly passed on...

Boaventura mentioned James Fox (or someone from the U.S.?) filed a FOIA request for more information about them going to Brazil back in 1996 (if that happened in that period), and the excuse to not provide any info was "national security" (that's...

This is the most compact debunk I could make of the event. The Varginha Incident is often cited as Brazil's Roswell. While layers of sensationalism are common in Ufology, this case might be a definite example. When properly investigated, the...

I've been wondering if it was a popular thing, there were other apocryphal "sightings" around this time, such that every new one (especially from a teenager who might want a few minutes of fame or a few dollars from a publisher) occasioned the...
