Background

Three men watched a dense white cloud hover low above Rua Cajati in São Paulo, Brazil. It dissipated, revealing a disc-shaped object that emitted light beams of various colors. When policemen arrived and drew their weapons, they became paralyzed like statues. The smoke cloud then reappeared and enveloped the disc, which took off. Eberhart cites the newspaper O Dia (Rio de Janeiro) of 8 September 1976 and the "Foreign Forum" column in IUR (December 1976). 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.
