AI-Generated Summary
A Duncan, B.C. resident reported a bright red explosion in the sky on September 26, 1959, which he interpreted as a collision between two space ships. The RCMP found no evidence of any fires or explosions in the area.
This document, published in the December 1959 issue of SS&S, details a report from Duncan, British Columbia, regarding an alleged aerial explosion on September 26, 1959. Vernon Stanley-Jones, a local resident, reported seeing a bright red flash and glow over Richards Mountain toward Crofton while driving with his son, Chris. Initially suspecting an explosion at the local pulp mill, Stanley-Jones later concluded that the event was a collision between two extraterrestrial space ships. He based this belief on subsequent reports of 'flying saucers' seen by eleven district residents, which he interpreted as search craft looking for the wreckage of the collided vessels. The RCMP investigated the area but were unable to locate any evidence of fires or explosions. Stanley-Jones, who claims to have researched UFOs extensively, also recounted a personal experience from two years prior, where he was a passenger on a YCA plane that was reportedly 'buzzed' by flying saucers.
After all, if any of our aircraft go down, don't we send our planes and ships to search for survivors and wreckage?
