Expediente Número 750101: Avistamiento de Fenómenos Extraños en Burgos

This document is the official military file (Expediente 750101) regarding a reported UFO sighting by four soldiers on January 1, 1975, near Burgos, Spain. The soldiers, traveling by car to the Army Engineering Academy, reported seeing an intense yellowish-white light, approximately two to three meters in size, descending in a parabolic path toward the ground at kilometer 14 of the Burgos-Santander road. Upon stopping, they observed the light stationary on or near the ground. Later, they reported seeing three or four less intense lights in the same area. The soldiers reported no sound and no physical object other than the light. The military investigation, conducted by the Air Force, included interviews with the soldiers, a site inspection, and inquiries with the local Civil Guard. The investigator noted that the soldiers were not interviewed until two weeks after the event, which likely contributed to the uniformity of their accounts and a lack of specific detail. The site inspection revealed no physical traces, and the investigator suggested that the sighting might be attributed to suggestion, fatigue, or the reflection of moonlight on a nearby 120,000-volt high-tension power line. The file concludes that there is no evidence to support the presence of an unidentified object and recommends declassification, as the information does not meet the criteria for 'CLASSIFIED' material. The file includes indices, correspondence between military authorities, the soldiers' individual declarations, and a copy of a press release regarding the incident.
