Track 46) PRISENTER: And today on ‘Stranger than Fiction’ we have ‘wo stories of Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs, The firse one comes from Brazil Listen and make up your own ming, In 1957 the Brazilian Navy see up a weather station on the small rocky island of Trindade, inthe South Adantic Ocean, In January 1958, people on the ‘sland began to see unusual activity in the sky, dlises that were flying very fast. On the night of J 16th, the people who worked on board the Brazilian ship Almirante Saldanha saw the dise you can see in the photograph above, Altogether 47 crew members ~ people who worked on the ship ~ sav the disc Almieo Barauna, a photographer, was also there and he cluding ary ook a series of six photos. After the ship rerurned to fand, he gave the photos to the Brazilian Navy Ministry. Experts said thac the photos were authentic and they said they showed 2 Sie diameter objece moving at 600 mph. Since then, there have been two possible ‘explanations for the photographs. Harvard University astronomy professox, Donald H. Menzel said the UFO was an aeroplane fying through fog. Then, later he said thar the photos were not real. However, in 1978, an ‘examination by an independent laboracory using digital photo analysis said that the photos were real and that's ‘what people believe today. Pursiscti: The next story comes from England, Listen and make up your own mind! ‘This happened over the last days of December 1980, near a base of the United States Air Force, which vas in Bentwaters, England. For two nights, security guards saw unusual lights in the Rendlesham Forest78 AUDIOSCRIPTS near the Air Forve base, On the second night they went into che forest with lights (because the forest was very dlask) and Geiger counters {to see if there was any zudiation).

At first people said this happened because of the wind, Experts explained the unusual lights using ‘complex scientific reasons, But, they could never ‘explain why the levels of radiation were 25 times higher than normal levels in che eacth and trees in the area, The story is still a mystery today and experts can not explain i, Track 47 Soy tll me all abous yourself!
