Background

At 7:50 a.m. five workers at the meteorological station on Ilha da Trindade, Brazil, watched a silvery, circular object pass overhead. Among them were the station doctor and Naval Lt. Inacio Carlos Moreira. The object's altitude was given as 6,000 feet. Olavo T. Fontes described the sighting in his series on the Trindade sightings in the APRO Bulletin of January 1960. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
