Pehuelches, Argentina: Hunters see silvery saucer rise, flattened oval left in the grass

At 5:30 p.m. Antonio Sanchez and Ernesto Fogliani were hunting rabbits about 7 miles from Pehuelches station, Buenos Aires, Argentina. They saw a saucer-shaped, silvery machine resting on the ground about 980 feet away. When they had approached to about 490 feet, the object rose into the sky and disappeared. At the spot where it had been they found the grass flattened in the shape of a large oval. The case was reported by La Razón on 24 May 1959 and later listed by the Vallées and in Uriondo's catalogue of Argentine landing cases. 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.
