◆ CASE FILEThe facts, corroborated
The Chulucanas Spheres
For weeks in October and November 2001 orange spheres of light are said to have performed silent displays over Chulucanas in Peru's Piura region, and one reportedly landed on a hillside. The Peruvian Air Force's UFO office investigated. What outside documentation exists comes from its investigator's own testimony. This is the record of what was reported, not a verdict on what was in the sky.
