The Encounter

The encounter involved Robert Salas, a former Air Force officer, during his duty at a launch control center for nuclear missiles on March 24, 1967. While on duty, a bright red-orange light hovered above the facility, causing all ten of the intercontinental ballistic missiles to become inoperative. The light was reported by security personnel, who described it as moving in ways that conventional aircraft could not. After the incident, the missiles were restored to operational status within a few days. Salas felt that the event was a message about the dangers of nuclear weapons. He later became an advocate for transparency regarding UAPs and their connection to nuclear security.
