This U.F.O. at the remote Trindade Island, in the South Atlantic, was photographed on January 16, 1958, from the Brazilian Navy research vessel Almirante Saldanha. It was seen by the captain, and several of the officers and crew. They said it was soundless, dark grey, and surrounded by a green phosphorescence. The object swooped over Trindade (top left) then flew oft over the ocean (top right) and disappeared on the horizon. A naval investigation decided that the photographs were of a solid object and, based on witnesses’ reports and charts of the island, the U.F.O. was estimated to be 120 feet in diameter and 21-foot high.
