Subject: Brazil Declassifies More UFO Documents


Dear Colleagues:

This is to inform that Brazilian Government has just
declassified a new set of previously secret UFO documents,
covering the 80s. We already had disclosures covering the 50s,
60s and 70s. So far over 4,000 pages have been disclosed.

The recent disclosure is very powerful because it contains
dozens of reports of UFOs on May 19, 1986, considered the
'Official UFO Night in Brazil', when 21 spherical objects,
estimated 100 meters in diameter - according to military sources
- literally jammed air traffic over the major Braziian Airports,
when several Mirage and F5 jets were scrambled to pursue them.
As a result, the Air Force minister went public about it the
other morning on the national TV network. The pilots and their
commanders also spoke freely about the pursuits, which occured
over several hours.

We've had several other disclosures since 2007, all as a direct
result of the campaign UFOs: Freedom Of Information Now,
promoted since 2004 by the Brazilian Committee of UFO
Researchers, of which I am the coordinator. The latest
disclosure comprises over 2,200 new pages of formerly secret UFO
documents that were given to the Committee and also sent to the
National Archives.

In late July, hundreds of papers from the Brazilian Air Force's
official System for the Investigation of Unidentified Aerial
Phenomenon (SIOANI) have demonstrated how the nation's military
authorities dealt with the UFO Phenomena in the 60s and 70s.

Considering that SIOANI wasn't a top secret agency and that even
civilian researchers took part in its procedures, the  structure
and functionality of which proves that Brazil is the first
country in the world to officially and publicly admit the
reality of the UFO Phenomena, and the first to investigate it
openly.

The Brazilian UFO Magazine website - www.ufo.com.br - already
has thousands of pages for download, such as over 1,200 pages of
documents, 200 photos of SIOANI's activities and Operation
Saucer, carried out in the Amazonian region in 1977. Along with
documents received by the Committee from other military sources.

Included in the recently revealed documents are the detailed
research proceedings carried out in dozens of UFO-related
incidents which had not been made public previously. Some of the
colored sketches of UFO incidents investigated by SIOANI are

Please note: Download, print, publicize and otherwise share
these documents, but please do not fail to mention the source,
Brazilian UFO Magazine, and emphasise that this material is
public thanks to the efforts of the Brazilian Committee of UFO
Researchers (CBU).
