It was something very scary, I was at home having a barbecue with my family on a very rainy day!

On that day, there were about 10 of us at a site in Gravataí, we were making roasted meat, it was around 9 PM when the rain stopped for a moment, and my cousin and I went outside to get some fresh air. When he looked at the sky (there were no stars), the only thing there was this round thing flashing with various colors, I could only film it while it was still, shortly after 20 minutes it moved to the right, then to the left, and took off at a sinister speed and disappeared into the sky.

Original report in Portuguese:

Foi algo muito assustador, estava em casa fazendo um churrasco com minha família em um dia de muita chuva!



Nesse dia, estava eu e mais umas 10 pessoas em um sítio em Gravataí, estávamos fazendo uma carne assada, era mais ou menos 21 horas quando a chuva deu uma parada e eu e um primo saímos para a rua para pegar um ar. Quando ele olhou pro céu (Não tinha nenhuma estrela) única coisa que tinha era esse negócio redondo piscando com várias cores, só consegui filmar ele parado, logo depois de 20 minutos ele foi para a direta, depois esquerda e saiu numa velocidade sinistra e sumiu no céu.

An object that moved in a strange way, had a white light when it was still but as it gained speed it turned blue.

We saw a very bright light in the sky almost still, we thought it was a drone, but it was too high to be a drone (moment of the photo), we ran to a darker place to see it better, but the object was already moving as well, it changed color and started gaining speed extremely, but we could still see it was like a sphere not just light but we could see a base around it. We also heard a noise very similar to the noise in movies but it was sharper.

Original report in Portuguese:

Um objeto que se movia de forma estranha, tinha uma luz branca quando estava parado porém conforme ganhava velocidade ia ficando azul



Vimos uma luz bem forte no céu praticamente parada, pensamos que era um drone, porém estava muito auto para ser um drone (momento da foto), saímos correndo para um local mais escuro para ver de uma melhor forma, porém o objeto já estava se movendo também, ele mudou de cor e começou a ganhar velocidade de uma forma extrema, mas ainda deu para ver ele era como se ele fosse uma esfera não apenas luz mas deu para ver uma base ao seu redor. Ouvimos um barulho também bem parecido com o barulho que tem nos filmes só que era mais agudo

An object that was moving and shining in a strange way

We were all gathered in that field, far from the city lights, enjoying the tranquility of the night. The stars were so clear that it seemed possible to touch them. We were talking about mundane things, laughing and observing the sky when, suddenly, something unexpected happened.

A bright white light appeared out of nowhere, illuminating the sky in a way I had never seen before. I looked up, and there it was: a spacecraft. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it seemed to be made of pure light. It flew in an impossible way, changing direction so quickly that it seemed to defy the laws of physics. It made no noise at all; the silence only made it more surreal.

"Are you guys seeing this?" I asked, although I already knew the answer. Everyone was frozen, their eyes fixed on that strange and frightening spectacle.

The spacecraft was visible for a few seconds, but it was enough to make my heart race. And then, as quickly as it appeared, it disappeared, leaving the sky dark again. We stood there in silence, trying to process what we had just witnessed. Even now, when I close my eyes, I can still see that glow. I still wonder what, or who, was up there.

Original report in Portuguese:

Um objeto que se movia e brilhava de forma estranha



Estávamos todos reunidos naquele campo, longe das luzes da cidade, aproveitando a tranquilidade da noite. As estrelas estavam tão nítidas que parecia possível tocá-las. Conversávamos sobre coisas banais, rindo e observando o céu, quando, de repente, algo inesperado aconteceu.



Uma luz branca intensa surgiu do nada, iluminando o céu de uma maneira que nunca tinha visto antes. Olhei para cima, e lá estava: uma nave. Não sei bem como descrever, mas parecia feita de pura luz. Ela voava de um jeito impossível, mudando de direção tão rápido que parecia desafiar as leis da física. Não fazia barulho algum, o silêncio só tornava aquilo mais surreal.



"Vocês estão vendo isso?", perguntei, embora já soubesse a resposta. Todos estavam paralisados, os olhos fixos naquele espetáculo estranho e assustador.



A nave ficou visível por poucos segundos, mas foram suficientes para fazer meu coração disparar. E então, tão rápido quanto apareceu, desapareceu, deixando o céu escuro novamente. Ficamos ali, em silêncio, tentando processar o que acabáramos de testemunhar. Mesmo agora, quando fecho os olhos, consigo ver aquele brilho. Ainda me pergunto o que, ou quem, estava lá em cima.

There were several sightings that night. The light moved in a straight line, upward, and sometimes diagonally.

The light turned on and then off.

That night, I was able to see several sightings, usually a white light, very far away. It appeared flying with a white light and then turned off. Later, the same light appeared again in another direction, disappearing once more into the night sky. One of these lights rose straight up into the sky, very slowly, and then vanished.

On another day, separate from this one, I saw an object that alternated colors between red and white.

Original untranslated report:

Foram várias aparições na noite, a luz se move de forma reta, pra cima e algumas vezes na diagonal. Luz acende e depois se apaga

Nessa noite pude ver várias aparições, geralmente luz branca , bem distante . Aparece sobrevoando com uma luz branca e depois se apaga . Depois aparece novamente em outro sentido a mesma luz, novamente sumindo no céu noturno . Uma dessas luzes subiu de forma reta o céu, bem devagar e depois sumiu . Em outro dia , que não esse, vi um objeto que alterava as cores entre vermelho e branco.

Sighting of lights throughout the entire night with direct sighting of the ship in the shape of a flying saucer at dawn.

Good morning Edison, How are you?

My name is Etieri, I'm an electrical engineer and amateur astronomer (I have extensive knowledge about celestial bodies, satellites, and atmospheric phenomena) (I also consider myself an amateur ufologist). I observe the sky every night, so I'm quite accustomed to natural and artificial phenomena that appear in the skies.

I am writing this email to report my experience on February 10, 2024, from 01:00 to 06:50 in the morning.

Myself, Marco Antonio (my middle brother), Gabriel (my younger brother), and Vanessa (my sister-in-law), went fishing in the Uruguay River, on the border between Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, in the region of Chapecó, more specifically at our mother's house. The place is very remote from the city, surrounded by plantations and sparsely populated.

Before giving my account, I would like to emphasize that I have already observed various UAPs in Chapecó, intense lights that blink, stop in the air and zigzag (red or orange in color), usually in the city's more peripheral neighborhoods. The lights seem like orbs flying very low over the houses. I have a recording from 2023 at night that captures the orb. I will send it to you in another email.

Returning to the fishing night with my brothers and sister-in-law… throughout the entire night, we were accompanied and monitored by this light that we saw several times above us, above the houses of the residents (including my mother's), the lights showed intelligence, zigzagging, stopping, and suddenly accelerating, at times it shot a very strong light beam towards the mountain and sometimes the beam of light was pointed at us. This light appeared about 10 times during the night, appearing out of nowhere and disappearing in the same way. That night the sky was clear, without any clouds or fog. We saw several times a light that blinked and turned off suddenly (like a supernova), we saw satellites and many meteorites (shooting stars).

Around 06:00 in the morning, the light appeared far away on the horizon, moving parallel to our position, at this moment, it focused a very white beam of light (as if it were an oncoming car with high beams), it is the video presented at dawn when the sky was semi-dark, the UAP focused the white light on us about 3 times, but still very distant, after that it disappeared into thin air in the middle of the sky, at that moment I shouted to my brothers that I saw the silhouette inside the light with the shape of a disc.

As we were leaving, thinking and commenting on the experience we had just lived, I looked again at the horizon, coming straight towards us, from Santa Catarina to Rio Grande do Sul, a disc, shaped like two plates on top of each other, the disc projected the light in our direction again, came directly towards us and hovered in the air, then went back (reverse?), hovered in the air again, tilted slightly and described a trajectory around us, as if it wanted to be seen in full, the object was at the height of a plane when it starts to approach the airport runway, I estimate it was about 500 meters high only, about the size of a commercial airplane +- 50 to 80 meters, silver in color, totally metallic, highly reflective of sunlight….

The videos were made by my Motorola G10 cell phone, where the camera is very bad and gets saturated when I can focus on the object. However, you can still tell it's a disc, it didn't make any noise at any moment, I found that incredible. Sometimes it described a movement like that of a fly.

The object was so visible to the naked eye that I could even see something resembling windows….

I will send you the original videos to try to invert the colors and see the silhouette of the object.

I have the feeling that they knew we had noticed their "presence".

I need your help to present to the world our real reality.

I have always believed in extraterrestrial life, but this time it directly touched us, it presented itself without any disguise, it was definitely a second-degree contact, because the ship (it was not a UFO, I saw the flying saucer completely) came towards us and stayed hovering over our heads.

I need your help, my friend, we have to show people what is happening. I swear I'm dying of fear of going back there, but we will set up constant vigils until I can make the perfect recording with an iPhone.

Original report in Portuguese:

avistamento de luzes durante a noite inteira com avistamento direto da nave em formato de disco voador ao amanhacer

Bom dia Edison, Tudo bem?

Me chamo Etieri, sou eng. Eletricista e astrônomo amador (tenho um grande conhecimento sobre astros, Satélites e fenômenos atmosféricos ) (me considero um ufólogo amador também). Eu faço observações do céu todas as noites, então sou bastante acostumado com fenômenos naturais e artificiais que aparecem nos céus.

Venho através deste email relatar minha experiência vivenciada no dia 10 de fevereiro de 2024. periodo das 01:00 as 06:50 da manhã.

Eu, Marco Antonio (meu irmão do meio), Gabriel (irmão mais novo) e Vanessa (cunhada), fomos pescar no rio Uruguai, divisa entre RG e SC, região de chapecó, mais especificamente na casa da nossa mãe, o lugar é muito retirado da cidade, tomado por plantações e bem pouco povoado.

Antes da dar meu relato, gostaria de enfatizar que eu mesmo já observei diversos UAPs em Chapecó, luzes intensas, que piscam, param no ar e fazem um zig zag (cor vermelha ou alaranjada), geralmente nos bairros mais periféricos da cidade. As luzes parecem orbes que voam muito baixos sobre as casas. Tenho uma filmagem do ano de 2023 a noite que pega o orb. Vou te mandar em outro email.

Voltando na noite da pescaria com meus irmãos e cunhada…durante a madrugada toda, fomos acompanhados e monitorados por essa luz que avistamos diversas vezes sobre nós, sobre as casas do moradores (inclusive da minha mãe), as luzes demonstravam inteligencia, zig zag, parava e acelerava repentinamente, mas vezes ele disparava um foco de luz fortissimo sobre a montanha e algumas vezes foi apontado o feixe de luz para nós. Essa luz apareceu certa de 10 vezes durante a madruga, aparecendo do nada e da mesma forma sumindo. Nessa noite o céu estava limpo, sem nenhuma nuvem ou cerração. Avistamos diversas vezes uma luz que piscava e apagava repentinamente (tipo uma supernova) , avistamos satélites e diversos meteoritos (estrela cadente).

Por volta das 06:00 horas da manha a luz apareceu bem distante no horizonte, passando de maneira paralela a posição que estávamos, neste instante, ela focava um feixe de luz muito branca (como se fosse um carro na contra mão dando luz alta), é o video apresentado ao amanhecer, quando o céu estava semi escuro, o UPA focou a luz branca umas 3 vezes em nós, porém ainda muito distante, após isso sumiu do nada no meio do céu, nesse instante eu grito aos meus irmão que vi a silhueta dentro da luz com formato de disco.

Fomos indo embora pensando e comentado a experiencia que acabamos de vivenciar, foi quando eu olhei novamente no horizonte, que vinha reto em nossa direção, no sentido santa Catarina para o rio grande do sul, um disco, formato de dois pratos um em cima do outro, o disco ainda projeto mais uma vez a luz na nossa direção, vem diretamente para nós e fica pairando no ar, volta para trás (marcha ré ?), volta a pairar no ar, inclina-se-se levemente e descreve uma trajetória ao redor de nosso, como se quisesse fazer ser visto por inteiro, o objeto esta na altura de um avião quando começa a se aproximar da pista do aeroporto, eu deduzo que estava cerca de uns 500 metros de altura apenas, tinha o tamanho de um avião comercial +- 50 a 80 metros, cor prateado, totalmente metálico, de alta reflexão da luz solar….

Os videos foram feitos pelo meu celular motorola g10, aonde a camara é muito ruim e fica saturada quando consigo focar no objeto. Porém.. Ainda dá para perceber que é um disco, não fez nenhum barulho em momento algum, achei isso incrível. Algumas vezes descreveu um movimento tipo de uma mosca.

O objeto era tão visível a olho nu que consegui ver até alguma coisa parecida com janelas….

Vou te mandar os videos originais para tentar colocar nas cores invertidas e conseguirmos ver a silueta do objeto.

Tenho a sensação que ele sabia que nós tínhamos percebido a presença " deles ".

Preciso da ajuda de vcs para apresentar para o mundo a verdadeira realidade nossa.

Sempre acreditei em vida extraterreste, porém dessa vez a coisa tocou diretamente em nós, se apresentou sem disfarce algum, foi definitivamente um contato de 2° grau, pois a nave (não era ovini, eu vi o disco voador por completo) veio em nossa direção e ficou parado sobre nossas cabeças.

Preciso da sua ajuda meu amigo, temos que mostrar para as pessoas o que está acontecendo. Juro que estou morrendo de medo de voltar lá, porém vamos montar vigias constantes até que eu faça a filmagem perfeita com Iphone.

Characteristics: Lights on object

A floating black pyramid in the air, a color without surface, with a few small lights in its middle, arranged horizontally—three or four lights.


I spotted the object about 12 meters from where I was standing. The wind was still, insects made no sound, and gravity seemed to intensify as I approached it with curiosity. It felt as though I was walking through a swimming pool, but without getting wet. I saw the lights at the center of the pyramid and tried to discern its surface, which was as black as graphite in the shadow of the night. I had the impression that the lights were moving deeper into the object, and in the blink of an eye, it vanished.

An interesting detail during this time was that a water supply pipe had burst on this block, saturating the ground completely. The pipe was located on Ernesto Gregoire Street, between house number 383 and the corner property, a few meters downhill from the road. Perhaps this unusual occurrence influenced the object's appearance.

Original untranslated report:

Uma piramide negra flutuando no ar, uma cor sem superfície, com algumas luzinhas bem ao meio dela na horizontal, 3 ou 4 luzes

Avistei o objeto a uns 12 metros de onde eu estava, o vento não soprava, os insetos nao faziam som algum, a gravidade foi aumentando conforme me aproximei com curiosidade, como se eu estivesse caminhando dentro de uma piscina mas sem se molhar, avistei as luzem no centro da piramide e tentei ver a superfície que era negra como grafite na sombra da noite, tive a impressao que as luzes foram se distanciando dentro do objeto e em um piscar de olhos o objeto sumiu. Um detalhe interessante é que nesse período havia um cano da abastecedora de água rompido neste quarteirão, e esta área onde aviste estava com o solo totalmente ensopado, pois o cano ficava na rua ernesto gregoire entre a residencia 383 e a casa da esquina, alguns metros abaixo da estrada. Talvez isso tenha influenciado este aparecimento.

There were 3 golden spheres that seemed to have wings and made no noise, dazzling our eyes—mine, my mother’s, and my grandmother’s.


My mother, grandmother, and I saw 3 small golden spheres above our house while we were talking. They approached us, and when we tried to focus on them, our vision blurred, making it hard to understand what they were. The spheres moved closer and farther away repeatedly. My very religious grandmother began to pray and make the sign of the cross. Whenever she did, the spheres retreated but returned even closer.

Original untranslated:

Eram 3 bolinhas douradas, pareciam ter assas, não faziam barulho elas ofuscavam nossos olhos,. Meu de minha mãe e de minha avó

Eu, minha mãe e minha avó vimos 3 esferas pequenas e douradas em cima da nossa casa, estávamos conversando e aquelas esferas se aproximavam da gente! Quando prendiamos o olhar para tentar olhar e entender nosso olho se ofuscava parece que perdíamos a visão doque era,. Elas vinham e voltavam.. Minha vó muito religiosa começou a rezar e fazer final de cruz quando minha vó.fazia.sinal de cruz aquelas coisas se afastavam e voltavam muito mais perto
