From time to time, some photographic records emerge showing, in an extraordinary way, the UAP phenomenon. In the vast majority of cases, these images end up representing nothing special and find conventional explanations. However, once in a while, something appears that falls outside the standard and this case, in particular, seems truly interesting.
On Wednesday, December 17, around 9 p.m., in the city of Presidente Prudente, in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, the skies appear to have been taken over by an intense and impressive UAP manifestation.
The event was captured by someone with photographic skills, who, in an Instagram post, shared intriguing and impressive images of the UFO/UAP phenomenon.
Photographer Marcel Sachetti was responsible for the record and published on his Instagram account some images of what he described as “anomalous lights” that, for more than an hour, manifested themselves in front of him.
According to the photographer, for more than an hour bright spheres appeared in the sky, interacted with each other and multiplied. At a certain moment, it was possible to capture up to seven spheres hovering in the sky in an intriguing manner.
Marcel Sachetti reported that he took thousands of shots during the event, using his camera with a 70–300 mm lens.
The images he shared, according to him, are photos taken with a cellphone of the computer screen, without any kind of editing or digital manipulation.
The photographer also emphasized that this was not the first time he had witnessed something like this, but stated that this particular occurrence was especially surprising and no less frightening.
For Sachetti, the experience left a strong impression. In a reflective tone, he suggested that “something is in the air”, perhaps a kind of “get ready” message, hinting that there may be something much greater and beyond what we think we know.
The images show various orb-like shapes that, to more trained and experienced eyes, might appear to be nothing more than lens blur. However, when examining other images, it becomes clear that this is not the case.
The geometric forms observed are diverse, suggesting that there were indeed changes in both the behavior and the shape of the “lights”. These records inevitably echo the well-known case referred to as the “Kaikōura Lights”.
The Kaikōura Lights is the name given by New Zealand media to a series of UFO sightings that occurred in December 1978 over the skies of the Kaikōura mountain range, in the northeastern part of New Zealand’s South Island.
The first sightings were reported on December 21, when the crew of a Safe Air Ltd cargo aircraft began observing a series of strange lights around their Armstrong Whitworth AW.660 Argosy. The lights followed the aircraft for several minutes, disappearing and reappearing in different locations.
The object was described as very large and displaying five flashing white lights. Some witnesses claimed they could see small discs detaching from the main object and then disappearing. The pilots reported that some of the lights appeared to be the size of a house, while others were smaller but intensely bright. These objects were detected both on the Wellington air traffic control radar and on the aircraft’s onboard radar.
On December 30, 1978, an Australian television crew was filming background footage for a program about the sightings when, during a flight to Christchurch, unidentified lights were observed by about five people in the cockpit. The objects were tracked by Wellington air traffic controllers and filmed in color by the TV crew. One of the objects reportedly followed the aircraft almost until landing.
After landing, the cargo plane took off again with the television crew still on board, this time heading toward Blenheim. When the aircraft reached an altitude of around 600 meters, it encountered what appeared to be a large luminous orb that positioned itself near the wingtip and accompanied the aircraft for nearly fifteen minutes, while being filmed, visually observed, tracked by the aircraft’s radar, and described in an audio recording made by the TV crew.
Although the photographer’s records were not corroborated by radar data, the similarity with the Kaikōura Lights lies in the way the phenomenon manifested itself. See the other images further below.
The photographer claims to have taken thousands of photographs during the event. It is reasonable to assume that within this large archive there may be other images that are just as interesting and impressive. Ovniologia has contacted him in order to obtain more information and possibly access additional records.
For now, we await his response. As more images are released, we will keep all enthusiasts updated on these findings.
That said, everything must be carefully investigated, with the aim of ruling out any other possible conventional explanations. Nevertheless, especially based on the most recent images presented above, I believe that what was recorded may indeed represent anomalous phenomena.
