Background

Around 7:30 a.m. a witness was photographing eagles by the Peña Palomera road (A-1501) at the entrance of a canyon near Jaraba, Zaragoza, Spain, when he heard a faint buzzing, felt uneasy and noticed that his camera and watch were warm. He turned and saw an oval object about 16 feet in diameter, surrounded by small antennas, some 65 feet away, and two humanoids about 6 feet tall in blue-gray suits; one was bent over a tube in the ground and the other carried a box with a sphere seemingly floating above it. When one of them gestured to him, he approached, felt heat and heard his own voice as 'distorted' when he offered help. The beings pulled the tube out of the ground, entered the object and it rose amid a louder buzzing; he took 2 or 3 photos before it sped away. A small funnel-shaped hole remained where the tube had been, a metallic taste in his mouth persisted for 2 days and the film turned out fogged. 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.
